*Beyond the Stars and the Moon*

Summary: My name is Isabella. I have been tossed into this world I have no clue of. My people have disowned me leaving me to roam this strange place. I do not believe in love because in the end it only causes pain...but that all changes when I spot a pair of golden eyes.

Isabella pov

Was I dead. Was this all an illusion, was I soon going to wake from this dream.

In front of me stood a man with paler skin than my own, his skin looked so smooth and soft but tough and indestructible at the same time. His eyes were golden and so bright and radiant you couldn't help but wounder if there was a hidden star lurking beneath his eyes. His lips so rosy red and soft. His bronze hair looking like silk as it fell over his forehead. If he were a star in the universe he would be the sun, because no constellation, astroid or star could ever compare to how overwhelmingly beautiful this man is.

His beauty overwhelmed me, but I could not look away. This strange perplexing pull was tugging me towards him and even though we were rather close...it didn't seem close enough.

I knew right away that he was a vampire, but fear was the exact opposite of what I felt throbbing through me.

Could he be my other half...my soul-mate? Many people in my tribe had found their other half. Was it finally my turn to find mine...even if he was a vampire, which was despised by the people of the tribe...but I wasn't part of the tribe anymore, so they would have no part in this.

"Are you okay?" He said. Wow his voice is perfect too, this man is truly flawless.

I nodded. Not seeming to find my voice.

"Your arm." He frowned. I looked at my slashed arm. Dry blood was all over my arm and a little on my old torn dress. I looked back at him to see him swallowing repeatedly.

What was wrong? Was he hurt? I felt fright and terror for just the thought of this man having a little scratch...I felt such strong emotions for this man I have met not just moments ago.

"I'm fine, but are you okay?" I was concerned; looking over his body to see if he was injured.

"Im fine." He said quickly, starting to stand up and looking off into the woods with a strained expression.

"Oh...okay." I said shyly. Was he upset with me? I hoped he wasn't.

"No I'm not upset with you." He replied

I gasped. What in the world!? "How did you do that!?" I whispered in shock, getting up to my feet and patting my dress down.

He turned to me and smirked. My mind turned to mush as he stared at me with the crooked smile. His golden eyes gazed into my grey ones.

He took a step towards me, keeping eye contact.

"I'm a mind reader...It's both a curse and a gift." He mussed.

"A mind reader, how would it ever be considered a curse, it's nothing but a gift getting such an advantage of hearing what people think around you." I said with confusion spilling into my words.

My stomach went in knots as I thought of him being in my head. Does that mean he heard my little fascination about him being my soul -mate...

He shook his head, not agreeing with me. "It is a curse, more a curse than a marvellous gift." He said with deep revulsion. He leaned closer to me. "You see its a curse being in peoples minds, they start to dread it when I walk into a room. Do you know how irritating it is to hear little whispers in your head. I would be beyond thankful to have seconds break from the noises. Do yo-"

"Shh." I said frowning. "I believe you."

He stared at me for a long time. He soon looked to the ground, he turned around whispering a suffering tone. "How...Why aren't you running and screaming...aren't you scared? You know what I am?"

How could he think I was scared of him, If I was... I wouldn't be here.

"Of course not!" I took a step towards his turned back.

He turned around hearing me come close to him, looking me straight in the eyes. His eyes now pitch black. "You should be" He growled. "You should be petrified of this monster that stands before you!"

I took another step towards him."Yes, I should...but I'm not, and I couldn't be scared of you even if I wanted to be." I said gently

His eyebrows furred in confusion.

He had to be my soul-mate. I never felt this way for another man in my life. He should be a predator and me the prey and yet I feel no fear at all.

He had no reaction to what I said, as if he didn't hear that I just called him my soul-mate.

"Did you not just hear me?" I said perplexed, tilting my head to the side in wonder.

"Yes of course I heard you. You just said something utterly foolish, you said you weren't afraid of me." he stated with loath, and confusion. He was obviously waiting for my instincts to kick in.

"That is not what I mean, I was speaking in my mind...did you hear what I said." I said timidly.

"I didn't hear anything...what were you thinking?" He asked intrigued.

"Umm...It was silly, come to think of it unrealistic...I mean your a vampire and I'm a..." I was pacing around the little clearing, babbling like a deranged lunatic, I didn't even realize I was about to confess my most hidden and dearest secret.

It was forbidden to tell anyone of our existent. No one was to know about us, no one was to see us or hear about us. We were non existent to the outside world. We thought every tale a myth, but in truth the myths were nothing but the truth.

I sighed sinking to the ground on my knees.

Just because I couldn't see it I thought it to be a myth. I am so dense.

The leaders were keeping us locked up from communication. That was both good and bad. Good because we could live with out acknowledging the fact there are stronger immortals out there, we could live without fear and torment. It was bad because we wouldn't know what hit us, until it did. We couldn't defend ourselves when caught in fear.

I didn't register that the man was kneeling beside me. He spoke in a low voice. "You don't have to tell me what you are if you don't want to...I can feel the fear and...uncertainty radiating off of you...literally, why is that. Why is it that I knew you were in trouble and I don't even know your name. Why is it that I felt your pain."

I looked at him sadden. "My name is Isabella, Isa for short...I will tell you why this is happening to you and I will understand if you want to leav-

"Don't assume what I am going to do. I wouldn't leave you...you would have to leave me." He interrupted.

Excitement and shock were rushing through me. I can't believe it, he won't leave me! He hardly knows me and- and... oh my god!

"I don't believe you will want to leave...but you will need to leave. I- I am a... fairy and your a vampire. Predator and prey are usually never around each other."

"Isabella a fairy." He muttered softly, looking off into the distance.

I swallowed. Would he think of me as repulsive.

He turned to me, he looked at me with awe. To my astonishment he raised his hands up to my dirty mud stained face. "My name is Edward Cullen and I will never leave you. Now please tell me, why did I know you were in trouble, why did I feel your pain."

I gulped. I felt trapped in his gaze and even though I wanted to hide the truth, I couldn't lie to Edward. I couldn't hide the desire of my heart.

"Edward, it's because your my...soul-mate...my other half." I said softly.

His eyes widened. I closed my eyes not wanting to see him take his leave.

"I already said I would never leave." I looked up but was engulfed in his embrace.

I warped my arms around his neck, crying in happiness into his shoulder. I was so overwhelmed in my love for Edward. I was drowning in my own desires for him.

"Isabella, my fairy, my soul-mate, my love." Edward whispered over and over again into my shoulder.

Warmness flooded throughout me, my stomach turned and a happy sigh escaped me. "You love me?"

He unwound his arms. "Isabella my love. I love you, I have never felt this way in my whole existence, and now it overwhelms me. The love I feel is too much for one person to feel."

"Edward...Today I thought this was to be the start of my never ending hell, but it is the start of a never ending love...Edward, my soul-mate...I love you too."
