Chapter One: Stranger

BPOV

I've had a pretty good life for the seventeen years I've been alive. Until, I decided the worst thing in my life.

I came to live with my dad about three months ago. My mom got remarried to a guy that I can actually respect. She loves him and she's happy, so that's all that matters. But I felt like I was just getting in their way. So that's why I decided to move to Forks, Washington. The dampest, dreariest place I know. I hate it in Forks. I, Isabella Swan, chose the worst place humanly possible (for me anyways) to live.

School was boring, as always. Just the same old desks, boring teachers that actually think you're listening to anything they say, and students who a lot of them just think they are better than you.

I was used to having about two-hundred kids in just my class alone back in Phoenix. Forks just had two-hundred kids in the whole school. To say it was different was an understatement.

I met a girl in trig that seemed to be nice, her name was Jessica. She helped me around a bit and I sat with her and her friends at lunch. Some boy with a baby face and dirty blonde hair started talking to me. His name was Mark, Mick or something like that. I wasn't really paying attention to what he was saying, I made it appear like I was saying "oh really?" and "mhmm" at the right parts.

My first day was uneventful up until this boy with dark brown hair and blue eyes talked to me in gym. He was pretty cute and blocked the ball from my obviously clumsy self a few times. When gym was over and I was heading out to get changed, he stopped me.

"So I was wondering if you would like to go out with me some time. You know, I could show you around. My name is Max by the way." He said.

That was unexpected.

"Yeah sure, that would be great. I'm Bella." I said, staring at him with a blush creeping up on my cheeks.

Little did I know that it was going to come back to bite me in the ass. It started out as one time of going out and then it progressed into us going out a few times a week. Pretty soon we were talking on the phone every night and I was sneaking out to see him.

He asked me to be his girlfriend after the first month of going out. I was stupid enough to believe he actually liked me.

Max and I went out for two months after that. He was always so sweet to me. I never knew it would come to this.

We were in his car, parked on a hill during lunch. He convinced me to skip school just to hang out. We were in the backseat kissing when I pulled away and said we should get back.

"Come on baby, let's just fool around a little." He said trying to take off my top.

"No, I really think we should get back. My dad's the police chief he'll know if I skipped." I said trying to get out of the car.

He didn't look happy when I denied him and he forced himself on top of me and kissed me full force. When he backed away he said,

"You won't say no to me again. I'm sick of all your fucking teasing. You're going to help me with my little problem whether you want to or not" He said, pulling my top off and putting his hand up my skirt. I could feel his erection brushing the inside of my thigh.

"No, Max, please. I don't want to do this" I cried trying to get him to stop.

He completely ignored me and had managed to pull my panties off and unbuckle his pants. He pulled his jeans and boxers down far enough that his erection sprang free. I noticed the cup of my bra was pulled down and my breast was exposed to him. He cupped my breast while he kissed me.

"Stop fighting and give in. You know you want to. I've seen the way you look at me. You want this, hell, you practically begged for it." He said. I was crying trying to get out from under him. I didn't want this. It wasn't how I wanted to lose my virginity, half naked in the back of a car with someone I don't love. It wasn't right.

"Please don't, please don't…" I begged over and over again.

He finally had enough and thrust into me not even pausing at my barrier, just breaking through. And with that one thrust, my innocence was gone.

It was awful; he didn't wait for the pain to subside. Just kept moving while I sat there completely still, tears running down my face. I begged him to stop more but he just silenced me by putting his hand over my mouth.

I waited for him to finish, which felt like forever. When he was done, I grabbed my shirt and panties and bolted out of the car. When I was in the middle of getting out I vaguely heard him say something along the lines of 'Stupid whore'. I ran into a nearby forest in just my skirt and bra while he sped off in his car.

I was sobbing wondering why this was happening to me. I pulled up my underwear and threw on my shirt and just kept running. I was at least halfway into the forest when I stopped to catch my breath.

I put my hand over my mouth to stifle my cries while sliding down against a tree. I sat there and cried for what felt like hours. It was getting a little dark.

I saw something move out of the corner of my eye. I whipped my head up and caught a boy about my age staring at me. He had the oddest shade of bronze hair and was lean with little bit of muscles. I looked up to see his face and what I saw scared the hell out of me. No, it couldn't be. Surly he didn't really have red eyes. They had to have been contacts.

He was staring at me with the oddest expression on his face. I stood backing away from him a bit.

"Who are you?" I asked a little frightened by his blood red eyes and the way he was staring at me. He shook his head as if coming out of a daze and took a few steps closer to me reaching out his hand.

"Edward Cullen, sorry I startled you but you look like you need help." He introduced himself revealing a dazzling smile.

To say he was cute was a huge understatement, he was gorgeous. Like Adonis himself.

I gave him my hand and introduced myself.

"It's okay, I'm Bella. I'm fine but thank you for being concerned." I said a little freaked by the coolness of his hand. He let go of my hand and put a little more distance between us.

EPOV

It had been at least six months since I've been away from Carlisle and the family. Carlisle of course didn't agree with my new choice of living. I couldn't blame him, he made me what I am and showed me the way to live and I was ruining it by killing humans.

Six months of killing not so innocent people. I tried to tell myself the world was better off without murderers or rapists wandering around. But I was unconvinced and couldn't stop feeling like I was a monster.

I was a monster. There was no doubt about it. I've already slaughtered about a couple hundred humans since I've been gone. I felt bad a lot of the time and a few times in the beginning couldn't go through with it. But I was going to hell anyways and I might as well do it thoroughly.

I had just finished off a guy that murdered his own family and was walking into the forest to get cleaned up. There was a small pond in there where I washed off my face.

While I was washing up, I smelled the most amazing smell. I got up and followed it a little ways through the forest. I stopped when I saw a girl with brown hair crying with her hand over her mouth the stifle her cries.

Was she the source of that delectable smell? I moved closer trying to get a small whiff of that scent again. She must have spotted me out of the corner of her eye because her head snapped up catching me off guard.

Her heart sped up and she stood and backed away. Smart girl, I thought. She already knows I'm dangerous. My thoughts were confirmed when she stood up and wind rushed past her and filled my senses with her lovely scent.

She was quite beautiful, brown hair and the most amazing chocolate brown eyes I've ever seen. I wondered why such a beautiful angel was crying. I tried to hear her thoughts, but found it was silent. Odd, I thought, trying again and coming up with nothing.

"Who are you?" She asked.

I shook my head trying to clear away the thoughts about why I couldn't hear her thoughts. I risked taking a few steps closer and held my hand out to her.

"Edward Cullen, sorry I startled you but you look like you need help" I said remembering my concern for why she was crying. I gave her what I hoped was my best smile as not to frighten her anymore.

She gave me her hand and introduced herself.

"It's okay, I'm Bella. I'm fine but thank you for your concern." She said in the most melodic voice I'd ever heard. I dropped my hand and put a few steps between us.

"Are you sure? What's a beautiful girl like you doing out here all by herself?" I asked, truly curious.

A hot blush crept up on her cheeks heating her face. It was the most beautiful color against her skin.

"Umm…I-I, my boyfriend just left me here," She said. I had a feeling she wasn't telling the complete truth because her heart sped up when she had to tell me.

That boyfriend of hers must be a real jerk to just leave her out here unattended like this. She could get hurt. She's so small and fragile.

"Do you need a ride home?"

I knew I shouldn't ask her this because I could be risking her life with me, but there are more dangerous things out here than me and I wanted to make sure she wasn't harmed.

I honestly hadn't thought about how I was going to be trapped in a car with her scent assaulting my nose when I haven't even been breathing out here. I briefly wondered how I would be able to do this.

"That would be nice, I really have to get home or my dad will probably send a search team out for me." She admitted.

"Follow me then, I'm parked just outside the woods." I told her as I started walking.

She gave me a slight smile and followed along.

As we got to the Volvo I opened the passenger door for her. She smiled at me and went to get in the car. She brushed against me as she did and I got a whiff at her hair. She smelled like Freesia and Strawberries.

I shut her door and went around to the driver's side. I took a deep breath and got into the car.

This was going to be a long car ride.
