Prologue

Bella looked up into Edward's hopeful face. This was all she had wanted since the day she had met him. And now she was stood here, Edward held his mother's ring out to her and was asking her to marry him but Bella felt… nothing.

She felt nothing at all for Edward Cullen. After all he had put her through, abandoning her the way he did and her deep depression when he had been gone. She didn't love him any longer. "No."

Edward looked at her confused. "I don't understand, why?"

"Did you seriously just ask me that? You left Edward and I missed you more than you can ever truly appreciate. Then Victoria came back but where were you? She killed my dad Edward, before the wolves could finish her off. I was alone, afraid and mourning the death of my father when Alice showed up for my help. I thought you were what was missing but when I saw you in Italy I realized something had changed. Just now when you proposed I didn't feel anything. Somewhere along the way I just stopped loving you. I'm sorry Edward. I can't marry you."

Edward watched hurt and confused as he watched Bella walk away in the direction of her truck.


Bella stood in the cemetery in Forks and watched as her father's coffin was lowered into the ground. The Cullen's had had the good sense to avoid showing up knowing they were partially to blame. Sam met Bella's eyes and nodded before he and the other wolves left. After Victoria had killed her dad but the La Push wolves had finally got her. Bella told Sam she was leaving. She couldn't stay in Forks. Not any longer. She had another problem now. The Volturi. Thanks to Edward and his recklessness her home town was no longer safe for her.

They would come sooner or later and Bella needed to be gone when they did. Her life depended on it.
