Hello everybody ^^ After my supposed-to-be-funny « 15 things » series (that I plan on continuing someday), here is my first attempt at writing a real fanfiction in English, which is not my mother tongue. Actually, I'm French ;)
This story will definitely be a BellaXEdward and is a really alternative New Moon.
Edward leaves Bella, which results in her being depressed and boyfriend-less. Laurent indeed attacks Bella in the woods, but the werewolves don't save Bella: it's a new character (created by the one and only Me ^^) who is Bella's biological brother, Matt, a Vampire Hunter. Bella will become one (it's a family thing) and acquire powers, and a few years later, run into the Cullens because of her job. In my fanfic world, not only are there vampires and werewolves, but there are also witches (pretty much like the ones in Charmed) and demons (as in Angel, Charmed, Supernatural…). If you want me to continue to publish this story, please review, because otherwise I won't know if this fanfiction is worth a try.
Disclaimer: About three things I am absolutely positive: First, I do not own Twilight or its characters. Second, there is a part of Stephenie Meyer's lawyers –and I don't know how dominant that part might be–that thirsts for lawsuits against people who have issues with copyright infringement, which is why I'm writing this. And third, I will unconditionally and irrevocably be happy if you read this and take the time to review! Thanks. By the way, all the other characters (like Matt and Athena) are mine. If you want to borrow them, PM me!
Love at stake
Prologue
He had left me.
Edward Cullen, the love of my life, my soul mate and better half, had left me. He didn't love me anymore. I knew that his feelings towards me, the love he once proclaimed, were hard to believe, from the beginning. Yet my heart was torn into shreds when I was told the truth.
How had I let myself believe that the bronze-haired god, as close to perfection as one can be, flawless and immortal creature, could even take a second look at plain klutzy me, let alone develop unexplained romantic feelings for me? His said feelings were defying logic, seemed almost unreal for they were too flattering to be true, and on that fateful day, he came to his senses.
He realized he didn't love me.
On the day he left, he took my hopes for a future full of happiness, a future with him. His absence was impossible to bear for me. If I tripped, nobody would be there to catch me. If I cried, nobody would try to help me. If I felt alone, nobody would be there to hug me. No more "I love you". No lullabies. No Edward.
Only he made my existence worth living, and his absence dug a bottomless hole in my chest. Without him, how could I be whole?
My life had lost its meaning, I had no purpose. My existence had lost its color. Without him, everything seemed dull and useless to me. My life was useless. I was useless.
To save myself from the pain caused by the hole in my heart, I tried to become numb. I paid almost no attention to my surroundings and set myself on "Autopilot". I ate, went to school, did my homework and slept. Everything was a blur, and I was a robot. I didn't care anymore. That is, until Matt walked into my life.
