Chapter 4 - Hunt
EPOV
I know the reason I was doing this was to help the girl I loved, but the monster inside of me was glad I was giving in. He wanted the human blood. "What are you thinking about Edward?" Aphrodite asked me.
"About what it is I am going to do" I told her honestly.
She looked worried, "Are you sure you can handle this? It is not an easy task" she asked me. I thought about it for a moment, "I would do anything for her. Bella is my life" I told her.
Her smile grew at my words. "She is lucky to have someone like you" she told me. I smiled at that, "I am the lucky one" I replied. "True" she agreed, laughing.
ApPOV
We where having a great little moment when the smell of new love hit me, I could feel my thirst, it had been to long since I fed. "Edward, grab my arm and no not let go for nothing understand?" I told him, he nodded not asking questions. We walked a little further, I could see them now, love was pouring from them. Follow my lead, I will show you how you must do this, its now the same as you would normally feed, I thought again he nodded. We walked to the couple using my power as a Goddess, change the man's focus to me. He came to me and began kissing me as the women made her way to Edward. Do it Edward, she thinks you are this man, when you feed on her blood you must feel her love, in doing that you take it with you, I told him in my head.
It was not long before I had ended to poor man's life, but one life here and there to get the world in order is not such a high price to pay. I watched Edward, this was hard for me I could see that. He did not want to be kissing this women.
Drink Edward, I told him in his head. His eyes snapped open and he was looking at me, I nodded for him to finish.
He was ready, I could feel the love she felt coming from him as well. When he bit her, something in his eyes changed, he went to a dark place.
Soon it was over and we would soon be home, just as soon as I he took one more.
Back at the house. . . .
Alice-POV
"Carlisle how is she?" I asked him for the hundred thousandth time.
"Love you must calm down, She will be fine" Jasper tried to calm me and that only made me madder. None of this would have happened had that bitch not come here. She messes with my visions, takes Bella from Edward, and now Bella is hurt and Edward is hunting humans! How could this get any worse?
"She could have just killed you all and taken Bella. You do not give her credit, she truly is a wonderful women" Poseidon told me. Huh stupid mind reading God. "You are a little bias don't you think?" I retorted.
"Perhaps, but it was not always so" he paused "There was a dark time when. ." he didn't get to finish, she was back and by his side, glaring at me. You are lucky he did not tell you those things. You are not privileged to that information Vampire, she told me in my head.
Did I mention how much I hated that woman? No, I didn't think so. I heard someone clear their throat breaking out shared glare. For the first time I looked at Edward and I gasped, his eyes. .
"I know Alice, the must be bright red" he said sadly, I shook my head.
"No Edward there are" I paused "Green, Bright green" I told him. He froze, then ran to the closest mirror. I heard his gasp as he took in his reflection, he turned to look at that woman.
"How is this possible?" he asked her. She just smiled for a moment then answered, "Edward, tonight you did not feed like a Vampire, you fed like a God. So now you appear as one."
Everyone froze in their places.
BPOV
I could not feel anything, I was frozen. I could recall Meeting Athena and her attack, my real parents, and the ones who raised me. I could recall every one of the Cullen's even Rosalie all but Edward. I do not know why I couldn't but I just could not picture his face, hear his voice, or even recall his smell.
That was until right this moment, I didn't know where I was but I was sure Edward was there. Because I could smell his sweet scent. "Bella, love I am here" said he velvet voice. I wanted to shout and let him know I heard him but I couldn't. Something was stopping me, somewhere inside I knew why but at the moment I just didn't care about why. "It is time Edward, she has only a small amount of time left before she will be frozen forever" I heard my mother tell me. The next thing I felt was Edwards lips crashing down on mine, then something inside me erupted.
I pushed him back, my eyes snapped open and I was on top of him crashing my lips down to his once again. I could feel the love pouring from him to me, it was one of the best feelings in the world, but I had another hunger.
Without realizing it I bit he and took his blood. While I drank I could feel him placing kisses on my body, loving me.
It was the most amazing experience. Soon I felt the hunger leave me and I felt whole again.
I pulled back to look at him and was shocked at what I saw. His eyes, the topaz pools I love where gone. I was staring into eyes the color of emeralds. "What happened to your eyes?" I asked him. He chuckled, "Everything you have been thru and you want to talk about my change in eye color."
"Well" I urged. "I went with your mother to fed, so I could help you" he paused " apparently I fed the way of a God causing me to appear as one" he told me. He was hiding something I could see it.
"what aren't you telling me?" I asked him, he sighed. "Bella, in order to help you, I had to hunt humans" he paused " only the blood one humans full of love could help you" he told me. I would have fainted if it was possible, I did not know how to feel. I was happy to be here with him but at what cost? I looked into this eyes, there was something else he was not telling me, but for now I would let it go.
"where is my mother?" I asked him.
"Outside, waiting for you" he answered. I smiled and kissed him pulling him up with me.
"I love you" I whispered on his lips. "As I love you" he replied.
ApPOV
I could hear them coming down. I was not sure how I was going to tell her this. Things had changed tonight, and no one wanted to tell her. Leaving me to do the dirty work.
