Jasper POV
Seeing Felix hug Selene angered me. I suppose it is because we haven't cemented the mating bond and I'm worried that someone might take her from me. I'm amazed that she is not afraid of me or my other personality, even if I'm shocked at how she found out. I don't know how to feel over the fact that they both used Aro's own gift on him without him knowing or being able to find out. Of course, he knows of my entire past and the others in the Cullen coven, not only did we tell Carlisle, but Aro touched us all when he first met the girls.
'Enough, you came in here with him for one thing, even if I find this ridiculous. Shut up, our mate will appreciate the gesture and it will relax her father, make him believe that we are not as bad as we were in the past. But we were that bad and you know that we easily could be again. True, but we will not start the random killing, we might start hunting humans, but not the innocent, I can't handle all of those emotions, it was killing me. Grow up, what happens, happens, there is nothing to be done about it now, we will hunt what we want, only our mate's opinion matters. But again, go do what you came here to do and quit your bitching. I'm going, I'm going.'
When Charlie and I were in the kitchen, before he got to the cake, I made my move, "Chief Swan, I need to ask you a question."
He clearly hears the serious tone of my voice because he turned around and looked me in the eye while he asked, "Well ask away."
"Even though they have only been here a few days I've known the twins for a while. We started talking to each other when they were in sixth grade when my twin, Rosalie, and I enrolled in a program that gave us pen-pals. We were so excited when we learned that the two of us were writing to twins like us. We became great friends and talked to them on the phone and online even though we haven't met until now." Yeah, I know most of this is a lie, but it is the cover story we came up with when the girls visited a few days ago.
"What is the point of this Jasper?" He was starting to get suspicious.
"I am getting to that sir; it will only take a moment longer."
"Continue then."
"Eventually, the girls told us what happen to Selene when she was five. We were shocked but not for the reason you might think. My sister had gone through something similar, nothing for that long of a time but something just as bad. We became closer after that; your daughters are like sisters to Rosalie and Bella is like a sister to me."
"And what is Selene to you? What's your point?"
"I would like your permission to date Selene." 'Yeah, we shocked him alright.'
"Why? How do I know that you won't hurt her, she has been through a lot in her life. She needs time to adjust to living here. The girls are involved with things even I don't know of."
"I promise you that I will do my absolute best to never allow harm to come to her and I would never force her into anything. She is a wonderful person and deserves the best, even though I might not be. I will give her time to adjust and I know that I may not get to know every detail about her life and I accept that."
I could tell that he could sense the truth in my words, that, to him, I believe I can protect her from anything.
'We may not be able to save her from everything but we can save her from our kind. Between us and the Volturi no vampire would be stupid enough to hurt her. Well, maybe Maria would be but we can stop her should we need to. That is true, and that is really the only threat to her. The Captain and Lieutenant are already informed to not harm her family. With Peter's gift and my scent on her and near them, they will easily recognize them for what they are.'
"Very well Jasper, but know this, if you hurt her, you will regret it." Even though he cannot really hurt me his words are true, just the thought of me harming her pains me.
"Yes sir, I understand."
"Good, now let's bring up this cake."
