Disclaimer- As far as I know, I am not Stephenie Meyer, although if given the chance to own Twilight, I would accept in a heartbeat, then spend a few years in my room locked up with the Cullen men.
A/N Thank you all for deciding to read this story! I want you to know that I am not anywhere near done with Fallen Angel, it's just that we had a minor disagreement, however I will update it as often as I can. Please note that this is a random idea that I just had at the local ice cream shop as I was dreaming up ways to scare my father (who really is an Army Major). Enjoy!
EdPOV
It was a pretty much normal day; I had come home from a meeting to find my wife, Bella, and my 3-year-old daughter, Renesmee, at home waiting for me, and went to Costa's for lunch. When we got home I got on my computer to do more work, while Bella and Nessie sat down in the living room to do a puzzle.
I sighed faintly as I watched them play. They where the two points of reason in my life, my two girls. Renesmee had gotten my copper hair, and Bella's chocolate eyes. She was a breath taking angel child.
My cell phone, a Blackberry, rang around 1:00. The number was an unfamiliar one, 976-628-9240. Assuming it was a client with business, I decided to answer.
"Hello, Edward Cullen speaking."
"Hello Edward. I want you to listen, and listen closely. Your wife's name is Isabella Marie Swan-Cullen. Your daughter's name is Renesmee Carlie Cullen. Your wife put together your mother's name and her mother's name to come up with this unique name. Same for the middle name, Charlie and Carlisle. How cute. I know every thing about you. Your old rank was Major when your 16 years of service was up, wasn't it? You thought you could escape me by moving from Michigan, to Ohio, to Arkansas, to Tex-"
"Who the Hell are you, sick bastard?" My skin was covered in goose bumps and my blood ran cold as he told me things no one outside my immediate family knew. It sounded like a man, gruff voice in a deep baritone, no one I immediately recognized.
"Don't tell me you've forgotten about me Edward. Oops, I forgot, it's Major Cullen now isn't it? I swore to you I would find you and murder everyone you hold dear. I will start with friends and move on to family. Speaking of friends, have you heard from Colonel Richmond lately? Of course you haven't! Silly me, I murdered him two weeks ago!"
Colonel Richmond's brutal murder had shocked everyone who knew him. He was a sweet gentle person, who had gotten my daughter her first princess outfit when she was 18 months old. He had been tortured and cruelly left to die of several minor wounds and one bullet wound to the stomach. He had lived for close to half an hour, while his stomach acid had seeped into his chest cavity.
"What do you want?" As I spoke, my mind was trying to place this gruff voice and threat. Until know, I had successfully kept my past as a Special Forces Task Agent separated from my family. I had no clue on the voice, and I had gotten many death threats over the years, although not to my family, I had been very careful not to wear a wedding band on oversea trips.
"What do I want. What do I want. What I want is for you to die, knowing that if your wife had never met you, if you had never been born, she and several others would still be alive. Do you see your beautiful wife completing the puzzle with you dear daughter? I know I do. What a touching sight, it is a pity I'm going to have to kill the both of them. Bella is very beautiful. She lives up to her name."
The insane man had actually sounded remorseful! I tried to think of how I knew him when one of his statements flashed through my mind.
Do you see your beautiful wife completing the puzzle with your dear daughter? I know I do.
The crazy bastard was watching my family! I raced to the living room with my phone in my hand.
Nessie was clapping, and Bella was praising her for completing the puzzle. Bella looked up and saw me gapping, my face visibly paling.
The man really was watching us.
"Oh Edward! Haven't you realized that I can see you? I just wanted to give you heads up; soon your family is going to be showing up dead in their beds! Goodbye! And remember, I can see you!"
Bella looked up, noticing something was wrong. "Edward, are you ok? You look pale!" Bella rushed over, concerned for my well-being, while just knowing me was putting her in danger.
"Yes love, I'm fine. I just have some business I have to deal with right away."
I rushed to my office and locked the door, hardly noticing Bella calling out "I have something to tell you!"
I knew she saw right through me, and was thankful she was leaving me alone. I had some calls to make.
After I got of the phone with Emmett, I called Jasper. They both agreed to come help me out. Both were livid at the thought of someone threatening me and my family, and they also knew as my two best friends, they and their family's were at risk.
Emmett's wife, Rosalie, and Jasper's wife, Alice, were going to stay at Emmett's house, a mansion with thick walls and enhanced security, left over from the time Rosalie had a stalker. Jasper was going to stay with them and protect the women and my child while Emmett and I hunted down the creep, with help from my excellent contacts within the FBI, Homeland Security, and of course the U.S. Army.
I already had someone tracing the call, and someone else arranging transport to the McCarty mansion. Everything was set in motion; the only thing left to do was tell Bella.
I headed into the living room and called Bella over to the couch to talk, while Renesmee watched TV.
"Love, I have something to tell you, something very important." I wondered if she could see me breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Me too!" Bella was practically jumping up and down in the seat.
"You first" I mumbled, wanting to delay the news for as long as possible.
"Edward, I'm pregnant!"
