Unlike the Cullen's, some Evangeline's coven- or the Alexander's- did not hunt animals for their blood. Vivienne, Evangeline, and Taisia survive solely on human blood, while Kristian, Aron, Bryce, and Savannah variate between animal and human. Unwilling to change her ways, Vivienne is now engaged in a full on yelling fit with Bella Swan, who is trying refuse to allow Vivienne to go on the hunt.

Evangeline and Carlisle had run back inside, when the screams finally breaking through the little bubble of comfort they were in. Despite the fact they are fighting for the Cullen's, tension between the newborn Bella and Vivienne are rising. Bella stands defensively in front of the angry blonde vampire, who has her teeth barred and is ready to tackle Bella. Edward and Aron are in turn glaring at each other, but before any more angry words could be exchanged, the angry and wild Savannah makes an appearance, and with one powerful shove, Bella and Vivienne are thrown away from each other.

"What the hell!?" Emmett yells, ready to defend his young sister who had just been thrown nearly out the window. She jumps to her feet and storms over to her.

Savannah holds up an angry hand, and lets out an angry snarl. "We may be fighting for you, but we need to feed. We won't change our way of life for you, young girl." She snaps and stares at Bella who is now standing next to Edward and the werewolf. When Bryce and Kristian initially met the werewolves, a huge brawl nearly blew up. Eventually they calmed down enough to be somewhat civil with each other.

Savannah exits the Cullen home quickly, with little Taisia following in suit. With one final glare to Bella, Vivienne then leaves Aron and Bryce. Remaining is only Kristian, who is looking at Evangeline. The petite British vampire did not leave Carlisle's side and seems to have no interest in doing it now. She gestures to the coven and Kristian leaves without saying a word. She could tell he's angry.

"Your family should learn manners," Rosalie snaps. The stunning blonde has her arms crossed and her gold eyes are staring at Evangeline.

"You have all become so sheltered. Do you not remember how violent our kind are? Surely, you cannot hide from it forever. Savannah will never be tamed. And Vivienne is similar to you Rosalie. This world you choose to hide in will not exist forever. Even if the Volturi are destroyed, another group will rise up and attempt to obtain dominance. It is the way of life." She proclaims, watching the group of vampires standing before her. Kate raises her eyebrows.

"Always so wise, Evangeline. Why are you here then? You don't seem to believe in the cause," She points out. Evangeline chews on her lip and shrugs, not offering an answer. "You'll probably just end up running away, like always. That's what you do best, isn't it? Isn't it, Carlisle." She adds. Evangeline glares at her before angrily walking out of the room, not so much as looking at Carlisle. He doesn't follow her right away because he can feel Esme's eyes staring into him. He looks at Kate and shakes his head.

"She doesn't always run." He whispers before walking away, in the direction of Evangeline. Edward is standing next to Bella by the large window, and he looks at Carlisle and shakes his head, silently telling him not to follow her. Carlisle debates for one second, but then leaves regardless. He eventually finds her in his study, sitting absolutely still on the mahogany desk. The light emits a soft glow and makes her pearly skin gleam. She has her long brown locks tied into a bun and her scarlet eyes are staring at the wall.

"She's wrong." Carlisle says softly as he walks into the room, shutting the door behind him. Evangeline bites her lip and shakes her head.

"She's not." She answers bitterly. Carlisle's eyes flicker down and he sighs before making his way over to her, reaching over and slipping his fingers into her dark locks. She shuts her eyes and relaxes into his touch.

"Evangeline-"

"I have a reason for running, Carlisle. I run and stay away from you because every time I see you, I don't want to leave. You know that," She interrupts, finally opening her eyes and looking at him. "I often wonder what would have happen had I stayed all those years ago."

He freezes and his eyes lock on her face, her lips. "I think you know what would have happened." He says softly, his gaze not breaking.

"This is why I cannot stay. I'll fight, but then I will leave. If I stay… I do not think I would be able to not love you." She admits, looking ashamed.

Carlisle's hand freezes instantly. "What did you just say?" he asks quickly.

She shrugs and looks at his vast collection of books. "You heard me. You've known that for centuries. But we have our families now, and therefore nothing will ever come of it. I should leave you to go find them." She tells him and tries to stand up, but his other hand has gone to her arm and he is gripping her tightly.

"Don't go. Just stay with me." He whispers. She looks at him, her eyes fluttering up and down, almost looking scared. He's never known his English rose to be scared before.

"I don't know how. I can't stay," She chokes out and tries to stand up, but his grip on her is vice like. She snorts and looks up, biting her lip even harder. "Are you going to kiss me, Carlisle?" she tests, her eyes flitting up and down his magnificent face. His mouth is only centimetres away from hers, and their eyes are locked on each other's.

"I shouldn't. But I want to, desperately." He breathes out. Evangeline nods, and moves half a centimetre closer to his face, leaving barely any distance. They both know this is wrong, they have mates- and love their mates. But Carlisle missed her dearly, and Evangeline cannot deny her feelings for her friend any longer.

So, when Carlisle closes the small distance between their lips, she doesn't push him away. The kiss is soft, and gentle. His hand reaches up and brushes her jaw, while she wraps her arms around his neck. The consequences for this action will be great, but they will deal with them after. Right now, they're only focus is on the other- like it was for so many years, and how it will likely be for years to come.
