1. Prologue

This is my first attempt at writing. I have been reading Twilight Fanfics since I discovered the movie earlier this year. And although I am totally not Team Edward by any means. I have to toying around stories in my head. My favorite Bella Pairings have been Carlisle or Jasper. However I did enjoy a J/B/E Poly story that was just oh too dreamy. So I thought I would try C/B/E

I do not own Twilight. They all belong to Stephanie Meyers.I hope you enjoy

Prologue

300 years is a very long time to not have companionship in this existence. Sure, I had traveled all over the world. I've come across many acquaintances, and even those I consider friends of my kind. However to be without someone to truly confide in, to carry out this day to day existence, is just, well lonely.

Not until 1918, while working in a hospital in Chicago during the Spanish Influenza epidemic. I cared for a dying family, The Manson. The Father, Edward Mason Sr. had already passed away from this deadly virus. His lovely wife Elizabeth, while in her demise, must have saw me as her angel of death, asked me to save their only son, Edward II. I saw the young man suffering along with his parents. He was a handsome child, even as the fever made him weak. I touched his cheek as he shivered from fever and death, and felt a spark from his cheek to my hand that coursed though my body. I instantly fell in love with this young man. I knew in that instant I must save him for he is meant to be mine for eternity.

As his heart rate began to decrease, I covered him and took him to the morgue along with his now deceased mother. Once there I kissed her cheek to let her know I will always care for her son. Then whisked him away into the night through the forest to my home. Once I got him as comfortable as possible on my bed, I whispered in his ear, "I'm sorry for the pain I am about to cause you, but I promise, my love, I will be with you for all of eternity". With that I tilted his head and bit into his neck. His sweet blood ran into my mouth as I pushed as much venom into the wound as possible. I spat out the blood as I did not want to defile this moment with drinking his blood. Quickly I bit into each wrist, behind each knee and ankle. As he cried out and writhe in pain, I held him to my chest. "There, there Love, I know it hurts, but I am here with you, and I will be with you for all eternity" I whispered to him as he cried out. And that was the beginning of the end to my eternal loneliness. I am Dr. Carlisle Cullen, and I am a Vampire
