Recap: "What do you plan to do with Zea (pronounced Z) ? Sooner or later they'll notice you are missing. What then?" Evil asked. Zea was the Voluteri for vampires. They were the leader of slayers. Zea resided in New Zealand, hints the name. They gave out assignments of what they were killing...or torturing. Most slayers didn't know anything but that they were to respect them. Very few have been to the palace personally. If they had to get something to Zea they would arrange for it to be picked up. We use to work directly for them but we took a break. Soon we would have to go back and when I didn't return like planned questions would began to rise.
My eyes, don't see the obvious. There's way to far to go. Forget all that you ask of me. There's nothing left to know.

"I'll worry about it when the time comes." I answered softly. I bit down on my lip. What would I do?
He snorted but said nothing further. "How long are you guys staying?" I asked breaking the silence and changing the subject.
"We haven't decided yet. Since your bloodsucker knows I would feel better if you were fully trained and using." Blade said. Some of the hostility left his face which I was glad for.
"Okay. I guess it wouldn't hurt any." I agreed to keep them happy. "After school tomorrow?"
"Yeah. Evil is enrolled at the school too." Rex told me. Evil didn't look to happy about it.
We all heard Charlie pull up into the drive. Somehow the slayer gene skipped a generation. He knew nothing of our secret world. "Bella! You have a curfew." he said as he stomped into the house. The guys stood as Charlie entered the room. A large smile replaced the grimace he wore. "Boys. Good to see ya. I didn't no you were coming this soon." He shook their hands. "I forgot school let out early down there."
It did?
"Yeah there was a change of plans so we decided to come sooner." Blade said speaking for them. "We'd love to stay and chat but it's getting late."
Charlie nodded."Alright. You boys are welcome here any time." He was looking at Evil when he said it. Of course he would. He would rather me be with any one that wasn't Edward. They said their quick goodbyes and left.
You see, I'm kinda paranoid. My luck, it seems to have run out. So I will point the finger now. Beyond the shadow of a doubt.

"So how was Billy?" I asked as I headed toward the stairs.
"He's good. Jacob is giving him a bit of trouble. Says he's been really depressed since you stopped hanging out with him. You know you should..."
"Night dad." I said cutting him off. I went into my room and closed the door. Jacob. As if I didn't have enough problems. What was up with him? Would he let me ever help him or even talk to him. I missed my best friend.
"What are you thinking about?" Edward asked. I was so out of it, I didn't even notice him lying on my bed. I shrugged off the door and sat on the very edge of the bed. He sighed then readjusted me so I was laying on his chest in between his legs. He brushed the hair out of my face and tucked it behind my ear. "I missed you." he whispered then leaned up and kissed me.
He missed me? What did he forget about me being a slayer? I found my answer when his tongue entered my mouth. I complied quickly. Yes his teeth could cut me but I heal quickly. The small amount of venom would have no affect on me. We continued until I started getting light-headed. He smiled sheepishly at me. I rested my head on his shoulder.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked after a moment of comfortable silence.

"In the beginning I just didn't want to have your coven find out. I didn't want to fight. Then I realized I had feelings for you and you, me. I had never gotten to get to know a vampire before and it intrigued me. It was hard to force myself to think and react like a human but I succeed in it. I planned on dumping you after the baseball game because it had gone to far. I wanted one good memory before I rejoined my coven. I never expected the other coven to show. I would have used my powers but...I was weak still am really. if the Voluturi found out we would have all been dead any how. When James bit me...He wasn't turning me. The poison was damaging my system and slowly killing me. I realized I truly loved you then when you had saved me. It was worth dealing with the wrath of my brothers...and Zea." I shuddered.
"Zea is supposed to be very secretive. They might not realize..."
I cut him off. "My coven worked directly in the palace. We have a few more months then they expect us to return." I sighed. I was totally, totally screwed.
Edward was silent for 3 minutes straight before asking,"Why did you want me to change you when you live forever?"
"...I wanted to see if you really loved me. If you agreed to do it then I would stop you right before you bit me." I admitted quietly. He looked hurt.
"I do love you. That's why I don't want you to be like me. The constant thirst that will never sooth is enough to drive a person mad."
"If you think you're a monster what does that make me?"
