EPOV:

My name is Edward Cullen; I live with my family in our castle. We are all vampires. But, I truly think that I always end up unlucky.

My father and mother found each other, and so did all of my brothers and sisters: they all found their true love. I of course end up all alone.

That is why my parents are forcing me to marry the princess from another kingdom named Tanya. She only acts kind around the Nobles, once they leave your living in your personal hell.

The only reason I needed to marry was that I needed an heir to keep the family line intact through history. Little did I know that one day would change me forever

I was hunting with Emmet. We were hunting on the Eve of my "wedding". I couldn't stop thinking how lucky he was to find his true love.

I then caught the scent of a mountain lion and ran after it. Once I caught up to it I drained it completely. I sniffed the air and found that there was another smell it was the smell of a human.

I waited and listened carefully for a sound but it did not return. Right when I was about to give up I heard a rustle in the bushes.

I spoke quietly and tried to coax the person out of the bush. But after I saw that they weren't planning on moving out of the bush I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I slowly grabbed their feet and pulled them half-way out of the bush. Once I saw who she was I froze. It was a little girl about 2-3 years old. She had remarkable brown eyes and hair.

She was terrified of me. She crawled back into the bush instantly. I was about to pull her out again when I realized that there had been a note pinned to her and was now laying on the ground.

I examined the note it said:

"To Whoever Finds My Daughter"

Dear person or creature of the night I know you exist and have now found my daughter. Her name is Isabella Marie Swan.

She likes to be called Bella. She is approximately 2½ years of age please provide, protect and care for my daughter. She already knows about the other creatures of the night and does not fear them.

For, she has already been through so much that the stress from these events is finally taking a toll on her. By the time you have read this message I shall be long gone. I have not abandoned her but have simply passed away from this life. I would have never abandoned her but it was her only chance at life.

Here is a list of things that I have learned from her: whenever she trusts someone she will cling onto them for protection and comfort.

She doesn't tolerate being touched by strangers. If she becomes dependant on you it means your are her world. If she doesn't stop following you she wants to be with you. If she cries and looks at the sky she is thinking about her family.

She hates thunder and rain. She is terrified of lightning and if there is a storm hold her and don't let her go. If she walks up to you and throws her arms around you it means she needs you.

Mrs. Swan

When I finished the letter I folded it into my pocket. I pushed aside the branches to see Isabella, she was starring at the sky crying silently. I knew she was crying about her parents. I introduced myself to her.

Then, she did something I never thought she would ever do. She threw her arms around me and started to cry harder. I

thought that Isabella is too long so I gave her the nicname Bella.

Emmet found me then holding a crying Bella in my arms. He asked me where I had found a little girl in the forest at this time of day.

I explained every thing that had happened to him. When I finished, a plan was formulating in my head. I asked her if she trusted me.

She simply nodded. I told Emmet my plan of making Isabella my heir. My parents never said my heir had to be related to me.

I also didn't have to marry Tanya if I already had an heir. I told Bella that I was going to make her the princess at my home.

I cradled her gently and ran back to the castle. I avoided everyone and ran quietly to my room where I put the sleeping angel to sleep.

Tell me if you like this story if you do please review. If you give me three reviews I will write another chapter.
