Bellas POV

" Remember me?"

I attempted to shut the door on Sam, but he put his foot in, before i could close it fully. At the sound of my scream Edward had come running down the stairs and i slammed into him as i backed away from the door.

Edward took in the group of people at the door and grabbed my arm pulling me behind him protectively.

" You're not welcome here." Edward snarled menacingly. I hadn't seen him like this his voice so cold and truth be told it scared me.

" Aw Eddie." Sam said his smile and tone mocking. " Did you really think Jared would just let you go?"

By now Edward had me pressed against the wall both of his arms out shielding me and was standing in a protective manner. I of course was terrified. There was no doubt that we both would die now. Sam was actually in the house along with Emmett, Jasper, Jacob and a few others who i couldn't name. I looked at all of their expressions. Jasper looked worried and a bit.. regretful? Emmett looked like he was having fun and Sams expression exactly mirrored that, the few others faces just looked cold and ready to kill if necessary.

Sam reached into his pocket and pulled out a hand gun. Both Edward and I froze. We're going to die. We're going to die. We're going to die. I thought furiously to myself.

My breathing became more rapid and increased with volume. I couldn't see Edwards face but i was sure that it matched my one of sheer horror.

" Leave. Now." Edward snarled again.

Sam bought the gun up so that it was pointing towards Edwards head, my heart was pounding in my chest and skipped several beats, as i thought of how to get Edward out the way before he got shot. But i wasn't strong enough to push him away and we would both end up dying. All i could do was hope for the best.

Edward and I were standing next to a small cupboard which had a drawer. I wasn't sure what exactly was in it, but Edwards right arm stretched out even more and opened this drawer and out he pulled...

A gun.

I guess i should've known that there was something like this in the house, Edward was too overprotective to not have some form of protection somewhere.

Edward then lifted the gun so it was pointing at Sams chest.

Sam laughed at Edward. " So you think that if you kill, me the others won't proceed to do the job we were sent to do? If you shoot me you will just make things worse."

" No." Edward yet again snarled. " I just hope that at least one of you bastards will be off the face of the earth for good."

Sam began to shake with anger and his finger twitched on the trigger. I felt even more scared than i was before so i looked away hoping that i wouldn't have to see this. Instead my gaze fell onto Jacob. I glared at him with all i could muster but he didn't seem to be affected by it.

" How could you?" I whispered, my voice full of hatred and venom.

Jacob shrugged and looked unconcerned. " Sorry Bells. Business is business."

" I hope you're happy and rot in hell." I hissed. I would've thought that by now the trigger would have been pulled but instead Sam just stood there undecided whether he should or not.

What's going on?

Outside i heard a car draw up in front of my house and it only took me a second to remember who it was.

Oh crap. I had forgotten about Alice and Rosalie and i told them to come straight in. Into this mess. I thought, fearing for them more than i was fearing for Edward and myself.

No! I couldn't let them get involved, but how was i going to warn them. Edward wouldn't let me move and inch and even if i did someone would either grab me or shoot me.

Car doors slammed and footsteps proceeded up the pathway to the house and seconds later the key turned in the door and everybody turned their heads towards the door. Edward quickly realised who it was and whispered so low that only i could hear him. " Alice. Rosalie." He whispered.

The door slammed open and Alice came bouncing into the room followed closely by Rosalie. As Alice came through the door she was already talking. " Bella! Edward! We're here and why are there loads of cars outside your hou-." She stopped when she took in the scene; Edward having me pressed against the wall, A large man with a gun in his hand pointing it at Edward, with Edward mirroring him with a gun in his hand. Also men dotted around the room for backup. Rosalie understood straight away that she was in danger and began to back out for the door again. But Alice was more brave and adamant.

" What's going on?" She demanded, her eyes darting around the room. Her voice held a hint of determination but even i could tell she was scared.

" Alice, just go home." I said my voice wavering at the end.

" Bella wha-" Alice began again.

" JUST GO!" I shouted. I think that she got the message because she let Rose grab her arm and began to pull her out the door.

When they were out they began to sprint down the path but not before Sam spoke. " Jasper. Emmett. Grab them, we can't afford anybody to know about this." Sam said his voice tight and controlled. They both nodded and ran outside after them. A few shouts later Alice was bought in by Emmett and Rosalie bought in by Jasper.

" Let them go. They have nothing to do with this." Edward said.

" No they don't." Sam said and his lips twitched as though he was about to smile. " But we can't afford anybody to know about us or this."

" We won't tell anyone." Rosalie begged trying to make him see reason.

" No you might not, but i don't know that. I'm sure we can find some uses for you both." Sam said and i saw both of them shiver. I could only imagine what he had planned, but from what i could tell i knew it wasn't going to be good.

Next Sam pulled his finger back on the trigger and i felt Edward press me more tightly to the wall, i shut my eyes to wait for the moment.

But it never came.

Instead Sam began laughing and i opened my eyes in shock. " Fortunately for you Eddie and Little Princess. Jared wants to kill you himself. But he is away on business at the moment so you get to live for a little bit longer."

Relief swept through me but then i froze again when i recalled what he said. He called me Princess and i didn't tell Alice and Rosalie about that.

Oh crap.

" Princess?" Piped up Alices voice and Emmett put his hand over her mouth to keep her quiet.

" It's nothing." I said quickly, hoping that the subject would be dropped.

Sam turned to Alice his eyebrows crinkled with confusion. " Don't you know?" And Alice and Rosalie shook their heads.

My heart skipped a beat and all the blood seemed to drain out of my face. A sly smile formed on his face. " Isabella." He sneered. " Is the Princess of Italy." Then he began to laugh. " And you were supposed to be her friends and she wouldn't tell you."

I could see the shock and hurt in their eyes and i felt guilty. I know i should have told them but it was safest this way.

" Well now that's out the way, we better get back to Italy." Edward growled as Sam grabbed Edward yanking him away from me.

I tried to make a break for the door to see if i could alert anyone..the police if i could, but somebody roughly grabbed me around the waist and pulled me back.

I tried to kick back but i missed.

Edward was struggling as much as i was, but he had less of chance as he had three people holding him down. Alice was struggling against Emmett, but of course she was too small and weak compared to Emmetts brawn and strength.

Rosalie was having more success with Jasper, she was taller and stronger than Alice so she would have more of a chance.

I looked up and it was Jacob holding me captive. I screamed out hoping to alert a neighbour but his hand came down on my mouth. I bit down on it hard and he dropped his hand and released me from his grip to clutch his hand.

Again i tried to run for it but somebody grabbed my ankle and pulled me down to the floor.

I kicked but the person holding wouldn't release his grip on my ankle. Turning around to see who held my foot, i saw it was Jasper and he looked like he was in pain.

Looked like Rosalie managed to get him off her and i looked up in time to see her run out the door. I hoped she would manage to get away and i wish i could say the same for Alice.

She was still struggling against Emmett, his grip on her never faltered.

Jasper got up still keeping and grip on me and then pulled me up by my arm. I heard a shout and it looked like Alice had stomped on Emmetts foot . Hard. And she was wearing heels. Alice with her head turned behind her checking no one was following her, began to run for the door, but she didn't realise that both me and Jasper were in the way of it, so of course she ran straight into Jasper. Jasper automatically released his hold on me so he could steady Alice before she fell back.

And i took this as a chance to run out after Rosalie.

I half knew that Edward and Alice would be alright. For now. Sam and the others wouldn't leave without me, so i proceeded my way, running down the road after Rosalie intending to get the police.

But unfortunately, life rarely works the way you want it too.
