A/N: Ok here's the second chapter. I should have the next one up soon.

Disclaimer: If I owned any of it, I wouldn't be writing fanffiction about it.


Edward's POV

Shortly after Bella fell asleep, I felt my cell phone vibrate in my pocket. I moved from my place next to my sleeping angel to the rocking chair across the room, glancing at the screen. Alice. I answered it, trying not to be too furious. Alice wouldn't have called me while I was here without a valid reason, much like Emmett would have. In fact, he's done just that.

"Yes, Alice," I asked.

"Edward," my sister sounded panicked, "I just had a vision. Victoria's going to try to get to Bella's house tomorrow morning to attack her. I can't tell if she'll get past Sam's pack or not. Let's just hope Bella's dog friends are as good at what they do as the claim to be..."

"Okay, Alice, calm down. I'll stay here all night, got it? Is Emmett or Jasper there?"

"Jasper's hunting, Emmett's standing right here."

"Okay, Charlie's fishing tomorrow, so tell him to come over as soon as the sun comes up," I instructed. I heard Alice past on my directions and let out a sigh of relief. At least I'd have back-up if things got out of hand.

"He said he'll be there then."

"Thank you, Alice. I'll bring Bella over as soon as she wakes up."

"Just be careful." With that she hung up the phone.

I went back to my place next to my fiancée. If only that word was enough to describe how I felt for her –if only any word was enough. Bella was my everything. And I loved her with all my heart.

I lay there, just thinking. About how much I love my angel, what I would do if I ever lost her. I was also awaiting the arrival of my enemy, the one who wanted to take her away from me. As always, morning couldn't come soon enough.

As the sun started to rise, Charlie stopped to check on his daughter. I knew he still wasn't fond of me, even though he miraculously gave me his blessing when I asked what he thought of me proposing to his daughter. I did have to give him credit, though. He always had Bella's best interest in thought; I'd know.

Now, when I took a look in his mind, he was thinking, I hope she doesn't get hurt today, either by herself or that moron that she calls a boyfriend.

That's fiancé now Charlie, I couldn't help but think. However, my thoughts quickly took a more sinister turn. And I'm the last thing you have to worry about hurting her right now.

A few minutes later, I heard the cruiser pull out of the driveway. Seconds later, Emmett was standing in the doorway of Bella's room.

"So when's this red-haired witch supposed to show up," my brother questioned.

"I'm not sure," I replied, "But I'm taking Bella to our house now. I'll be back after I drop her off. I don't need her here if something goes wrong."

I swiftly lifted my still-sleeping Bella into my arms, and headed down the stairs, Emmett following behind. He opened the door and stepped outside before I did to make sure the coast was clear. Then, he did the last thing I expected. He took off running toward the forest. I stood there slightly bewildered for a short moment. Then, I took off for my house, realizing why Emmett was headed for the forest. There, hiding among the trees, was Victoria.

After a minute or two of running I could feel someone behind me, I chanced a look over my shoulder and sped up.
