Prologue

Her hands shook slightly and she held her palms together before he noticed. She had to admit, she was afraid. But, as scared as she was, she knew this was the only way.

Did she really want it though?

His golden eyes watched her face carefully. Waiting for her to protest, go back on her decision. She leaned towards him and her lips brushed against his. They belonged together. They would spend eternity together, no longer star-crossed lovers, but side by side as one.

"Bella…" he whispered. His mouth slowly slid down her cheek into the hollow arch of her neck. "I will always love you, never forget that." She nodded and gave a broken smile.

She will never regret her decision. Eternity with him is worth anything, even her life.

His fangs slowly slid out and swept across her skin. She shivered and the hairs on her neck stood on end. She knew he could hear her heart rate speed up. She held her breath and gripped her hand in his.

Before she could comprehend what happened, his fangs pierced her skin. Her body became enerved with the smell of her blood and she involuntarily closed her eyes to control herself.

Suddenly, pure pain shot through her whole body. She heard screams that she realized were hers.

She had to die.
