Summary:
This is my story. I should probably start at the very beginning, so you may understand better: my father was a vampire; my mother was a human. It has been quite a few centuries since I was born, so I have decided to make a record of my life... as I may not have much longer to live. I have seen death and love; despair and hope; tragedy and miracles. I regret little, as everything I have done has been right in my own eyes. My motivations were purposeful, and my memories are pure. My name is Cornelia.
Genre:
Romance/Adventure/Drama/Angst

A/N: Hello! This is my first uploaded story.
Some things you may want to note:
I wrote most of this story before I had read Breaking Dawn, so this was my version of "hybrids." Somewhat different than Renesmee, but I have an explanation: Cornelia is a "venom-producing" female hybrid, whereas all the girls in the books are non-venomous. A stretch, maybe? Have no fear - I read BD thoroughly before throwing it in my fireplace.
The beginning, Part 1, is set during the time when Carlisle came to the Quileutes before he had the whole family together. I realize that the town of "Hoquiam" wasn't settled until 1890, but this is fiction fiction.
Most of this story is canon. I hate breaking the timeline, but you may see a little wackiness here and there. Though I haven't finished writing it yet, I plan to continue this story's timeline into the year 2010.
I've uploaded the first three chapters all at once since the storyline doesn't start until Chapter 3. I am currently in the process of rewriting the first several "parts" of this story to be more canon, so I hope you like the product. You'll see many familiar characters throughout, and OCs abound.
This is not beta-read, so forgive my careless typos. I hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I do writing it.
