Prologue
I ran through the woods, my feet carried me faster than I had ever gone before. I'd almost swear that I'm as fast as Edward, but I doubt it. Anticipation radiated off me in waves and caused the air around me to vibrate with it. A clearing opened up before me and I could see the two-story log home that was my goal. The door flew open and an equally excited Alice bounced out and launched herself at me. Our arms wrapped tightly around each other as we hugged.
"I've missed you so much," we both cried at the same time. By now, everyone in the house had heard us and came rushing out, both the Denali's and my family. They were all shocked to see the prodigal daughter return. I released Alice and waited for the others to recover themselves. My loving mother, Esme, was the first to do so. A smile lit up her face and she threw open her arms.
"Rosalie Lillian Hale Cullen, get over here and give your mother a hug," she commanded. Even if she hadn't just four named me, I would've still rushed into her arms. It had been almost two years since I had last seen my family. I hadn't realized how much I missed everyone until this moment. It only served to prove that my Kitten knew me better than I knew myself at times. She was the one who suggested we take this vacation, after all.
The scene played out repeatedly as I embraced each member of my family, then worked my way through the Denali's. We finally made our way inside and sat down in the family room. I waited patiently for the interrogation to begin, but laughed at Edward's look of consternation at not being able to read anyone's thoughts now. He narrowed his eyes at me and I casually indicated the device that looked like a pager on my belt. Before he could ask about it, Kate spoke up.
"Rose, why are you wearing a bullet around your neck," she asked.
"It's my lucky charm. This is the bullet that was taken out of Bella Swan's heart the night we became lovers," I replied with seductive smile, my eyes on the figure leaning in the doorway.
"That's just sick Rose! Bella is dead, so stop lying," Edward yelled, while everyone else looked upset.
"Funny, I don't feel dead," a voice called from the front door. Bella stalked gracefully into the room. She dropped into my lap and pulled me into a passionate kiss. The lust and desire that ignited in me struck Jasper and he unwittingly reflected it around the room. I could hear the others moaning as they attempted to prevent themselves from starting an orgy. Bella smirked as she broke the kiss. God, my Kitten knew how to make an entrance.
