(I do not own Twilight. Read the first chapter…)

"Jane, Alec!" I called. They were by my side immediately.

"Yes, Bella?" they asked in unison.

"Do you need to go hunting with us?" I asked, eyeing their nearly black eyes.

"Yes," they said, nodding.

I shook my head. "You know, it's still creepy how you do that," I told them dryly.

They put on innocent smiles and hugged me before skipping ahead of us. I rolled my eyes. "This way, guys," I told the Cullens.

We passed Gianna on our way out and I gave her a curt nod which, like normal, she returned with a fake smile. We never got along well because she always had a crush on Demetri and I apparently 'stole' him from her.

Once we were outside, I turned to the Cullens that came with me. "Okay, so these woods here are the hunting area for us that drink animal blood," I told them, indicating me, Jane and Alec. "Everyone else drinks from human blood, so they have their meals 'delivered'," I shuddered, as did the Cullens and the twins.

"Okay, so, there are grizzly bears, mountain lions, black bears, pretty much every kind of animal that tastes good," I grinned, my white teeth shining in the sunlight.

"Thank you, Bella," Esme said before running off with the others to go hunting. I joined them not long after.

When we all finished, we walked back to the castle. And who would be standing at the doors, waiting for me, than Edward? I growled mentally. He had a death wish, surely.

"You guys go on," I bit out through clenched teeth. "I'll catch up later. Jane, Alec, show them the way if they get lost," I added. The twins nodded before skipping off, the worried Cullens following.

"What do you want?" I snarled as soon as they were out of sight.

"I want to talk to you, Isabella," he said in a faintly disapproving tone.

Thoughts we going through my head at around fifty miles an hour.

Disapproving?! Why the hell would his tone be disapproving?

And what's his problem, anyway? Coming to talk to me after making out with his bratty wife.

"About what, Edward?" I asked coldly, my eyes narrowed at the use of 'Isabella'.

"Us, Bella," he said in what I guess was a seductive tone, I couldn't tell, I was too busy keeping my elemental powers under control. No need to catch him on fire!

I yelped when I felt his hand tilt my chin up. My eyes narrowed to slits and I barely had restraint over my powers. "Edward," I ground out. "Move or I will make you!"

"I never meant for you to be turned, Bella. I only wanted you to live a normal life," he sighed.

Fire sprang up around me as I snarled at him. "YOU WERE ENGAGED WHILE WE WERE DATING SO CUT THE CRAP, EDWARD!" I screamed furiously.

"Bella?" he asked warily. I could only imagine what I looked like right now…

"What?" I spat.

"There's fire surrounding you… and there's lightning crackling at your fingertips," he gulped when I grinned evilly, waggling my lightning-tipped fingers near his heart. He froze all of a sudden.

Ah! Telekinesis! I thought evilly.

"Really?" I purred maliciously. "Did you know that my lightning and fire can incinerate a vampire in seconds, without them having to be torn to shreds first? My ice can cut through vampire skin, also," I continued, stalking closer towards him, ice starting to grow on my fingertips also.

I was nearly close enough to touch his skin when –

"BELLA!" Demetri's shout brought me out of my trance-like state. The fire disappeared, as did the lightning and ice. Edward seemed to unfreeze, and I sighed as I felt Demetri's arms wrap around me. I leaned into his embrace, closing my eyes. "Sorry," I muttered into his chest.

"It's okay, Bella," he said in a voice that practically said he was rolling his eyes. "We all have our… moments. You especially." He snickered quietly.

I hit him softly. "Be quiet," I whined.

"Oi, love birds, stop it before I find out if a vampire can throw up!" Felix shouted.

My eye twitched.
