Twilight Laurent AU

(A/N: I own nothing and read last chapter)
"T-Thanks…" Bella said shyly, blushing and ducking her head at the vampires caring about her and her siblings. Bella took another bite of eggs and finished off her bacon before pushing the rest of her eggs to Seth who gobbled them down instantly.
"I'd better go change. I'll be back in a minute." Bella said softly before leaving to go change her cloths while Irina and Laurent looked after her worriedly, especially when Seth and Leah stopped eating after she left.
"Thanks for that…she probably won't say it aloud but the fact that you two don't even know her all that well and yet are still looking out for her…it means a lot to her." Leah said softly to the two Vampires who looked at each other before Irina smiled rather maternally at the two shifters.
"Not just her, I'll be the first to admit that I don't know either of you much at all but I care about the both of you as well. Not just because of the familial bond either." Irina said smiling softly at the two who blinked and looked at her confused at this.
"Familial bond?" Seth questioned curiously.
"Yes, just as there are mating bonds there are also familial bonds. It's basically when a vampire comes across someone they're related too through blood, a sister or mother or occasionally a child." Irina began to explain just as Bella came back down stairs in a simple black t-shirt and a pair of comfortable blue jeans with a sword strapped to her back. Irina immediately froze at the sight of the sword and just stared for a moment.
"Bella…may I see that sword for a moment?" Irina asked calmly and staring at the sword. Bella blinked but nodded as she slowly took the sword off and handed it to Irina who held it gently. She looked over the black tempered blade with the silver and gold lines down the center of the blade, and smiled when she saw the small snowflake engraving in blue.
"The family sword." Irina whispered smiling brightly as she put the blade to her finger tip, surprising everyone when the sword actually cut into her and drew venom. Irina and everyone else watched as the venom seemed to be absorbed into the blade, making the snowflake engraving and the golden line glow a bit.
"Bella may I hold your finger for a second? It may sting a bit, but this should confirm something for us all and I promise that neither Laurent nor I would lose control." Irina asked looking up at Bella who blinked for a second before holding her hand out towards Irina.
"I trust you. If you wanted to hurt me you could have back in that cave or while I was asleep." Bella said softly, smiling shyly at Irina who beamed at her and gently pricked Bella's finger with the sword's edge. A single drop of blood squeezed out and caused the snowflake engraving to glow brightly.
"That proves it. Seth, Leah? Do you two mind if you try? I promise I'll explain afterwards." Irina said her eyes shining brightly with happiness as she looked to the shifters who looked at each other before shrugging and holding their hands out towards Irina.
"Sure thing. If sis trusts you so do I." Leah said shrugging her shoulders and letting her finger be pricked, causing the engraving and silver line to glow. Seth's blood caused the same result, making Irina beam happily at all three teens while Laurent was just confused, but happy that his mate was happy. Irina stood up and walked around at a human pace, kissing Leah's forehead first, then Seth's, before making her way over to Bella.
"This sword truly belongs to you and no other, but your siblings and I would be able to use it if the need arose. I'm glad you have found it, little one." Irina said softly before kissing Bella's forehead.
"So…what was with the cool glowing sword?" Seth asked as Irina sat down, only after giving the sword back to Bella of course.
"That was the sword I made when I was still a human, before I was turned." Irina said smiling at them all brightly and causing even Laurent to blink as he stared at her surprised at this.
"I suppose I should tell you my story before I finish explaining about the familial bond…" Irina began before freezing for a moment alongside Laurent, before relaxing again a moment later.
"If you don't mind waiting a moment it seems the rest of my family arrived and wants me to wait until they're here so I can explain what happened…" Irina said causing Bella's eyes to widen as she backed up and whimpered a bit, making Irina's own eyes widen as Seth and Leah seemed to vibrate in anger.
"Oh Bella, sweetheart, I didn't mean the Cullens, they're all in Greenland at the moment. I meant my sisters and coven mates. They were a bit worried when I called them to let them know that Laurent and I had found out something very troubling and were going to stay down here for a few days at least. I didn't know they were coming here to check on me though." Irina said standing and hurrying to sooth the pale girl who calmed down a bit and nodded into the hug that Irina had her in. Her head was buried in the tall vampire womans shoulder as the blond refused to release her just yet.
"Sorry about that I didn't mean-"
"Don't you dare start apologizing sweetheart. It's perfectly understandable that you wouldn't want to see the Cullens again after what they did to you! If anything I'm the one who should apologize because I wasn't specific before scaring you." Irina said kissing Bella's hair as she held the girl close for a little longer.
"Jeez sis, I know that you're motherly as all hell but you adopting three teens without even letting us know?" A teasing womans voice asked causing Irina to sigh as she released Bella who glanced up at the new arrivals, her eyes instantly meeting the woman with long silk like blond hair and causing her golden orbs to widen in disbelief as her jaw dropped.
"Um…uh…um…" The blond could only make small sounds as she gaped at Bella who blushed under her look and shyly hid behind her hair.
"Kate? Hello? Earth to Kate?" The curly haired strawberry blond woman next to, apparently, Kate asked amused and slightly shocked as she waved a hand in front of Kate's face. Seth couldn't help but snicker, his remark making Leah laugh alongside Laurent and a Spanish looking couple while Bella giggled and Irina scolded Seth on his language but looked amused.
"Damn Bellsy. You broke a fucking vampire, that's got to be a record of some kind."
