"It must me my power..." I mused.
"Why do you think so? If you were pregnant before hand, then maybe it could have survived," Laurent questioned.
"No, it could never have survived that; it wouldn't have been strong enough. It was weird, I knew I had been pregnant as soon as I woke up, I could feel it. But it wasn't alive. Then I wished that I was pregnant, so that I could have something... something to remind me of... him. And then suddenly, I felt something moving, and I heard the heartbeat. It has to be my power."
"No! Carlisle said you would be powerful, not that you would have some ridiculous, useless power. Ah, I knew not to trust those Cullens." He spat their name, making me jump.
I hissed at him, outraged by the way he put them down. "NEVER, ever talk about MY FAMILY in that way!" I screamed, growling at him at the same time.
"Your family? Bella, they abandoned you when you needed them the most!"
"They didn't know I was carrying his child." I spat back at him.
"That small one, Abigail was is? No, Alice, that's it, she could see the future, why didn't she tell them not to leave then?"
"She doesn't see everything. She probably missed it." I was losing faith in them thanks to him, and I was not happy about that. Even though the hole in my heart was still gaping open, I wasn't about to give up on my family.
"Still, they left you. You really think they care about you anymore?" No, I didn't.
"Yes, I do." I said, in a tone that meant "this conversation is over". With that, I jumped out of an open window, and ran into the nearby woods to hunt. I wasn't going to be a monster; I was going to be stronger than Laurent was.
