Hey everyone~! This is my first Twilight fic, and it is an Alec/OC.

This is just the prologue, but the first chapter should be up very soon!

I do not own Twilight.

Please review if you have the time!(:


I had to choose, but I couldn't. I stared at my brother and furrowed my brow. Blood dripped from my mouth and down my chin, a single drop hitting the floor, breaking the silence eerily. Edward, my brother. I knew he was listening to what I was thinking; I knew he was waiting for what I would decide… But how could I decide?

My older brother; warm, loving, sweet Edward… The Cullen's were my family, all of them… They kept me safe, they taught me right from wrong in the messed up life I had been brought into unwillingly, and they loved me unconditionally. They were my family, my safe haven. Even when he fell in love with that human, I had still been a loyal and loving sister to him. I hadn't wanted to do what I did, but I had to. I hadn't turned my back on him until he had turned his back on me. Was that so wrong?

And then there was him. He was there for me when my brother wasn't; when the Cullen's weren't. He had been the light to illuminate the darkness that had become my existence. He loved me; he gave me everything when I had nothing… He had convinced me that I wasn't a monster, and that there are people that have done things far worse than I had, and he was one of them… But it didn't matter to me because I loved him… And in return I had done nothing but hurt him. Even now I was hurting him!

Everywhere I go, all I cause is pain… How could I choose? Why would I want to choose? If I chose either one of them I would surely be miserable. If I chose Edward and the Cullen's, I would miss what I had. But if I chose him, I would miss my family…

I shifted my gaze to stare into my brothers golden eyes. I knew venom had filled my eyes, and I knew if I was human I would be crying.

"It's time to choose, Lena." Edward said soothingly. He reached out and placed a hand in my dark hair. "No more of this, sister." He said as his hand fell back to his side. His mouth pursed into a thin line as he stared at me with an expressionless face. "You can't have both." He said with a stony look in his eyes.

And he was right. I couldn't have both without destroying the very thing that made them who they were…

It was time to make a decision.
