Prologue

Isabella Marie Swan was a normal, unpopular girl who has a major crush on Forks High's hot playboy. Edward Anthony Masen has a new girl on his arm every week, and thinks his sister Alice's best friend is a total nerd. He hates her and so does his current girlfriend, Lauren Mallory.

What happens when Isabella disappears one day after Lauren tries to torture her? What happens when she does not return for a whole year? And what happens when she finally comes back to school—but as the shy but total hottie Bella Cullen?

Who is this mysterious Bella? Does she have a connection to Isabella's disappearance? Why is her skin so pale? Why are her eyes gold? Why does she dump all her friends to sit alone? Why does she ignore all the flirty boys trying to get her attention? And why does Edward find that he has feelings for her?

Will Bella return his love? Or were her transformation and his harsh past with her too painful for her to forget? Fate will play with both their hearts until one gives in.


(A/N-Bella is Isabella. Bella is the vampire, Isabella is the human. Edward, Emmett, and Alice are Elizabeth and Edward Senior Masen's children. Rosalie and Jasper are the Hales. Bella's parents just died, and she is taken in by Carlisle and Esme Cullen, who are vampires, after she is changed. The Cullens have no children except for Bella, who is adopted by them later on in the story.)
