A/N: yes, I've started yet another story. I'm not sure how this will hold up with the fans so please review and let me know if it catches YOUR interest. I'll post the first couple of chapters to let everyone get to know my OC. This is rated M for a reason and there will be femslash in later chapters, if that bothers you please don't read. This is an Alice/OC story and while I personally don't mind Jasper HE IS EVIL IN THIS STORY. So Jasper lovers beware.

Dusk's Eternal

Book One: Physical Influence

Chapter One: Obsession

I couldn't believe I was here again. Okay, that's a lie. Of course I'm here, I've been perched on this branch everynight for almost two months. As long as SHE came back to this place, so would I. Sometimes SHE would stand there for hours before SHE broke down, other times it was less than a minute before HER knees hit the dirt. It always ends the same, with HER keening his name. It makes me sick.

How could I, Nova of The Universals, be attracted to something so hideously weak? I could understand if SHE was human, they took losses so hard, of if he was actually worth it. But this is just pathetic. He hurt HER. He wasn't meant for HER, I was. For some horribly twisted reaason, I am bound to HER. There really isn't a way to explain it. I need HER. I hate it, I've dealt.

My need for HER seems to settle if I'm simply close so I haven't made contact. There's no need. Plus, why hurt HER more? I've already taken part of HER mind, made HER blind in so many ways, and taken the only preson SHE was ever in love with. "WHY!?!?" she sudden screams jars be back to realilty.

The pain radiating from HER is so raw it hurts my chest. Emptiness echos and I feel HER angusih as it rips through the air surrounding HER. It corupts my thoughts like wild fire. Detachedly, I can hear another scream join HER's, it's just as pained, as empty. My own, I've just betrayed myself to HER. Shit.

Below me, SHE freezes. I will not deny, SHE is gorgeous. A beauty like I have never seen resides in HER face. If SHE wasn't so disgusting in how SHE pinned for him the pinheaded moron who left HER I'd be interested. Amber eyes find my violet and I freeze, not that I have any chance of blending in. My black wardrobe and tresses stick out against the snow that blankets everything.

SHE growls. Crap. The need burned and I can feel my eyes flicker scarlet. Fire licks my veins, the posion mixed with my blood normally runs cold but now my skin is darkened slightly. Before I know what I'm doing, my body is gracefully tumbling through the air. Milliseconds later, each one an eternity in my mind, I unfurl my wings and they gently catch me. It's so natural, the falling, the flying; so much a part of me I forget SHE's probably never seen anything like it. I should have thought of that before I jumped, SHE looks horrified. Another growl. Okay, I don't have temper problems but honestly! Irratation rose and I bare my considerably longer fangs.

In the distance heavy paws come running towards us. Jacob Black must've heard our encounter, great. My ears prick for any other sound and my head turns a fraction of an inch. Big mistake, it's enough to expose my neck. SHE's on me, teeth to my much softer than HER's throat and her hands yank my delicate wings. I'm not a fighter, not by order, but I do know how to defend myself. I move to throw HER off, my heart clenches painfully. I can't strike against her, SHE's my bond mate. The laws don't hold HER, SHE has no Universal blood. 'CRACK!!' There goes my wings. "Stop!" a pure velvet voice calls from behind me.

Edward Cullen and behind him, I can smell Jacob Black grinding to a halt. SHE's off of me in an instant, gone from the smaller clearing without a sound. Edward makes her uncomfortable. Actually, I think the world makes her uncomfortable. Not that I care right now. I'm more concerned with the rushing noise consuming me. Bloody posion is flowing freely from my neck, drenching my shirt and already soaking into my skirt, I can barely hear it drip onto the ground. My chest is concaved with multiple ribs broken, stabbing into my unnessacry lungs. Fire's blazing through my back and I can't feel my wings but I can see the left on the ground…is it detached? If it isn't it must be utterly destroyed.

Something slams against my back and I try to scream but it comes out a hidous gurgle. I can see the dull, gray sky above me. Am I looking up? Edward appears, looking down on me. I must've fallen. Is that why I can see the sky? My eye lids feel like bricks, pressing to be closed. Suddenly, I can't fight them anymore and my world is a black vortex of pain and regret and despair. Memories beat against my mind as I fight to stay awake, stay consious. But it's no use, the black is swallowing me. Hopefully, there won't be pain on the other side…maybe, I can finally rest…

Before my mind falls into the black I hear Edward's voice. It's difficult to hear over the deafening whooshing but the controted words reach me. "Oh Alice, how could you?" And I knew I was dieing.
