Author's Note: I am sick and tired of finding stories that take place just after the unwanted forced kiss where Jacob rapes Bella and she is too weak and concerned about her father's relationship with Billy to really do anything against the mutt. It's time there is a story where she has backbone and finally realizes what a jerk her father was being. It's time she stood up for herself instead of trying to make everyone else happy.


Chapter One:

What the hell just happened? Bella thought as she tried to gain some sense of dignity and wrap her mind around the fact that her now ex best friend had just raped her and left lying on the floor of his garage as if they were boyfriend and girlfriend. As she grabbed her clothes, Bella began thinking over the last few months clearly and without bias. The realization bowled her over; all of the times she had left to comfort Jacob and hurt Edward. All the times that she had defended Jacob and had also listened to her father. It made it seemed she preferred Jacob and that she didn't trust Edward or his ability. While she continually told Jacob he was nothing more than a brother to her, by her actions she led him on.

Well no more. The whole tribe is now dead to me, she growled as she climbed into her truck. As the daughter of a cop she knew what needed to be done to report this and there was no way in hell she was going to let him get away with it.

As she stepped into her truck, she heard a familiar graveled voice callout to her, "Bella!"

She turned towards the Quileute Elder who she had once thought of as an uncle. "William," she replied coldly.

To say that William Black, Chief of the Quileute tribe was stunned at the coldness towards him in the voice of a girl he had thought of as a daughter was an understatement. He was also shocked to see her with a newly formed black eye, bruised cheek, and what looked to be bruised wrists.

"Bella, sweetheart, what is going…" however Bella cut him off with a growl.

"You want the truth William Black? Your son assaulted me and then raped me. He took the one thing I could give my husband on our wedding day. I will never be able to do that," she exclaimed bitterly.

Billy shook his head in denial. "No, there's no way my son could do that. He knows what happened to Sarah…" he mumbled aloud.

Bella snorted in derision. "I can assure by the pain I am feeling he did. And there's no way in hell I am letting him get away with this. From now on you and your mutts are to stay away from me and my family and that includes my father, my mother, my stepfather and all of the Cullens. You are all nothing more than animals. None of the Cullens have EVER committed the sin that your son has. In fact I can tell you that when they find out one of their own was attacked they are going to void the treaty; which was broken time and again by your son while they did nothing. I hope you enjoy hell," she stated as she grabbed into her truck and left the wheelchair bound man sitting in the cool Northwestern Summer.
