PROLOGUE
Annabella and Isabella Swan were born into a happy family with two parents that loved and adored them very much. The only issue was that their two parents didn't love and adore each other very much. Charlie and Renee Swan constantly argued and as they grew older, they grew to want different things. In the end, the only thing they had in common was their beautiful twin girls. Unfortunately, that didn't make a difference.
Renee wanted to get out and leave the dreary town of Forks behind whereas Charlie couldn't bare leaving the place he had called home all his life. So, the two decided to split up and in the process, they split the twins.
Renee fled to sunny California taking Bella with her whilst Charlie stayed in their family home keeping Anna with him.
Despite the fact that the twins got to visit each other throughout holidays, they missed each other dearly. Another consequence of living apart was that Anna never really formed a proper bond with her mother and Bella never really formed a proper bond with her father. They were family but they were strangers.
Emmett McCarthy was known as the charming man around his town in Tennessee. The young man loved hunting yet he had one of the gentlest souls around. Until his accident.
Hiking through the mountains, Emmett came across a grizzly bear and before he knew it, he was lying on the floor bleeding out from numerous wounds. Luckily, Rosalie Hale had gone out hunting that night and followed the scent of blood.
Dragging the dying boy back to her family, the blonde pleaded for Carlisle to save the human.
Twenty four hours later, Emmett McCarthy woke up with a pale complexion, red blood eyes, super strength and the last name Cullen. Adjusting to his new life was complicated for the dark haired male as he had to leave his old life behind. His new family was a bunch of strangers that he would soon form an unbreakable bond with.
