A/N: If you want to see Bella's house, my Wattpad is HPxObsessedFan. I'm not writing the details of the house. This is just about journals on the vampire covens.

Chapter 3 The Journals Part 1
When they arrived at Bella's home, they were stunned at the beauty of it. They've never seen a house quite like that. It was beautiful.
The house was rustic and blended with the trees and it had a beautiful view of the open sky. The house and the trees didn't obstruct the view of the nearby stream or the sky. Everything just blended so well together.
"Bella! This is stunning," Billy said as Jake helped him out of the truck and into his wheelchair.
"It is. This is the first time I've seen it. I haven't even seen any pictures because I wanted it to be a complete surprise," she said smiling as she walked up to the door.
"I'd say that was a good call because you look like you just fell in love," Jake said laughing. Bella knew he was right but there was no way she was telling her brother that because he'd hold it over her head for years. He'd be like a dog with a bone.
Bella bent down to pick up the keys from under the doormat, she was excited to see the inside for the first time.
"Wow," she breathed stunned. She was amazed at the beauty of her home. She was going to have to find somehow to thank everyone who helped with her house because saying Thank you just doesn't seem like enough.
After they looked at the whole house, Bella sat everyone down because she had some vital information on the major covens in the world.
"I wrote down everything in journals that I received from the spirits over the years on the different covens in the world. I thought you'd like to read them," Bella said as she brought a box into the living room.
"Really?" Sam asked stunned. He knew she was the tribe's healer but he never heard of someone being so thoughtful towards the tribe as a whole. Bella was making sure the pack and the tribe had extensive knowledge of vampires to be better prepared.
"Yes. The first is on the Cullen Coven," she said handing the journal to her father.
"Read it aloud, please," Sam requested.
The Cullen Coven
Carlisle Cullen was the son of an Anglican pastor, born in 1640s London, England, during a time of religious upheaval. His father and other pastors would hunt down creatures such as witches, werewolves, and vampires, often mistaking humans for them. As his father got older, Carlisle was put in charge. One night, he was attacked by a vampire and left to die on the streets. Knowing he would not be accepted by society, he hid and silently went through the painful transformation, emerging as a vampire. Horrified, he tried various methods of killing himself, but nothing worked due to being a vampire. One night, he could endure hunger no longer and fed on a group of passing deer. Subsequently realizing that he did not have to live off humans, he set out to perfect his resistance to blood lust and become a doctor. For a short time, Carlisle lived with the Volturi, though he eventually left and traveled to the New World. While treating patients with Spanish Influenza, he met a woman who begged him to do whatever he could to save her son, Edward Mason.
Out of loneliness, Carlisle transformed him into a vampire and Edward became his companion. Soon after, in 1921, Carlisle moved to Wisconsin where he treated Esme Platt after a failed suicide attempt brought on by the loss of her infant son. Carlisle felt compelled to save her life and turned her into a vampire, subsequently falling in love with her, and marrying her later on. Carlisle then transformed Rosalie Hale, a young woman who was raped and almost killed by her drunken fiancé and his friends in Rochester, New York, and left in the street to die. Later, while hunting, Rosalie found a young man named Emmett McCarty who had been mauled by a bear, and carried him over 100 miles to Carlisle. Carlisle then changed Emmett, since Rosalie was unwilling to do it herself for fear of blood lust overwhelming her. After Carlisle changed Emmett, Carlisle and his family moved to Hoquiam, Washington, where they made a treaty with the Quileute Native American tribe, that the Quileutes would leave the Cullens alone if the Cullen family did not bite any humans or trespass on their land. The Cullens agreed to this treaty and lived in relative peace until they had to move on. Between the Cullens' first and second stay in Forks, Alice Brandon and Jasper Whitlock joined his coven as well, having found Carlisle on their own.

"Wow. I mean I still hate leeches but damn that is one compassionate vampire," Sam stated.
"I never really believed he changed everyone due to them being close to death but this proves otherwise," Billy said frowning.

Edward Anthony Masen was born on June 20, 1901, in Chicago, Illinois; the only child of Edward and Elizabeth Masen. His father provided Edward with many advantages as a successful lawyer, including music lessons and the opportunity to attend private school; however, he and his father were rather emotionally distant due to his busy career that often drew him away from home for business. This absence was made up for by his relationship with his mother; he was the center of her life.
Edward excelled at his studies and became an accomplished pianist. As he grew older, Edward became enamored with the life of a soldier. World War I raged during most of his adolescence, and Edward dreamed of joining the army as soon as he turned 18, but his love for his mother was the only thing that made him reluctant to the thought other than his underage. That changed, however, when he and his parents became sick with the Spanish Influenza in 1918. His father died in the first wave of influenza. Edward's mother later contracted the Spanish Influenza and begged the doctor who was taking care of them, Dr. Carlisle Cullen, to do everything within his power to save her son. Carlisle acted on her wishes when Edward was near death himself. Shortly after Elizabeth died, Carlisle took Edward from the hospital, brought him to his house, and there changed him into a vampire.
Edward formed a deep bond with Carlisle, who became a father figure to him, gaining Edward's trust and love the way his natural father never had. It was Carlisle who first realized Edward's telepathic abilities; he noticed Edward answering questions that Carlisle had not asked aloud. Edward had always had a knack for reading people; after his transformation, this ability blossomed into a true psychic talent. In 1921, Edward gained a mother when Carlisle changed Esme into a vampire to save her life after her suicide attempt. Edward was still young enough to appreciate a mother's care, and Esme gave it to him.
Edward did have a rebellious period at the beginning of his vampire life and left Carlisle and Esme in 1927. During his lone time, he used his mind reading ability to attack the worst people of society, thinking that, as long as he was serving justice, it would not matter that he was feeding on humans. His first victim was Esme's abusive ex-husband, Charles Evenson. A few years later, he regretted this decision and returned to Carlisle's family and their diet of animal blood in 1931. In 1933, Carlisle changed a would-be socialite named Rosalie Hale into a vampire after finding her left for dead by her fiancé. Carlisle and Esme were sometimes concerned that he had no romance in his life, which was partly what prompted Carlisle to change Rosalie. However, as stunningly beautiful as Rosalie was, Edward could not stand her shallow and self-absorbed mind, and the two became nothing more than siblings and weren't always on good terms. Emmett Cullen became Edward's adoptive brother when Rosalie found him near death from a bear attack and fell in love with him in 1935. Already, vampires, Jasper and Alice sought out and found the Cullens in 1950, and adopted themselves into the family after both escaping their tragic pasts. The moment they arrived, Alice moved into Edward's room, much to his dismay.
When the Cullen family were living in Alaska, they encountered the Denali coven, the only other group that shared their diet of animal blood. The leader Tanya showed affection toward Edward, but he did not share that interest.
By 2005, he had attended several colleges and universities, earned two medical degrees and studied several subjects. With his natural parents both passed away, he inherited the Masen house in Chicago, and about every 50 years, he would inherit his family fortune from himself, pretending to be a new heir.

"Okay, I have to say this. If I was a bloodsucker, I would hunt down the monsters of society. Make the world a safer place," Embry said frowning. He knew people were getting hurt by regular humans and they couldn't do anything about.
"Um, Edward Cullen meets his soulmate in Avery Swan. If you try to stop them being together, Avery tries to kill herself because she can't live without her soulmate. They will have a child and she's harmless. She's not venomous. There are other's like her among the Tunica Tribes of Brazil. But the baby will need Avery to drink human blood while pregnant or Avery will die," Bella explained. She didn't want Avery to be a vampire but she knew better. You can't stop fate.
"Okay. The pack will meet them at the Treaty line tomorrow to give the Cullen's permission to change Avery but this is only a one time offer," Billy explained. He hated the thought of his best friend losing his daughter and she is turned into a leech but he knew better than to go against the spirits.
