Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight. I just own this story line. I would like to say that in this story I touch on the topic of the slave trade. I don't agree with this but it's out there. At least in this story I can save someone from this hurt and pain. I will also note that while I have tried to make the details as accurate as possible I won't have managed to have everything exact. Please don't flame me. Google only offers so much information on the topic.
I would also like to thank my Beta, Boosboys Cliches. You are a goddess.
**EPOV**
Every year it was the same thing. Went to Isle Esme for Christmas. We spend a month there on average, and get the chance to reconnect with each other. While I enjoyed spending time with my family, I always felt like the odd one out. While I did date, none of the women ever felt like the one.
I was searching for her, I believed she was out there somewhere, and one day I would find her. In the meantime, I really didn't feel like being around so many couples.
"Mom, I'm going to go into town to do some last minute shopping. I'll be back before dinner," I called out as I grabbed my wallet.
"Ok. Take your phone; call us if you need anything, and above all else, be careful," mom said as she wrapped me in a hug.
I sighed. "You know I'm always careful, and my phone is in my pocket." I hugged her tight, then turned and left.
The trip in the boat was always relaxing. I didn't have to listen to Emmett and Rosalie going at it, which seemed like they always were. Alice was always babbling about new fashion trends. At least, she kept my wardrobe up to date.
I passed the rest of the trip looking at the beautiful scenery. I really did love Brazil. The whole country was so beautiful; I promised myself right then that when I found my true love, we would one day buy an Island off the coast, like Dad had, and live there for the rest of our lives.
I reached town and docked the boat, then wandered around the many market stalls that were scattered around the streets.
I found a beautiful pair of antique pearl earrings for Alice. She had a thing for pearls, and I knew she would love these. For Mom, I had already purchased an unlimited voucher for her to go shopping at her favourite furniture store. Rosalie had ordered some car parts for her car she was restoring back home, and I had paid for them. I found a leather bound journal for Dad. I went and had the Cullen family crest stamped into the cover, and his initials stamped on the back. Emmett and Jasper, I had leather wrist bands crafted with the Cullen family crest stamped onto them.
After getting the last of the gifts, I stopped to have some lunch. I texted Mom to let her know that I would be back soon, then grabbed my bags.
I took a short cut through an alley to get back to where the boat was docked.
As I was walking I heard a voice say, "VocĂȘ quer mulher? Temos boas mulheres para a venda." I stopped shocked at what was said.
"What? Are you serious? You are selling women to people to become their brides." I was shocked to my core.
"You are American, yes? We have nice ladies who will be good wife for you. We have them trained. They won't fight or run away. They want good husband. You come look, lovely beautiful ladies." This creepy little man was seriously offering women for sale.
Normally, I would have just told him to fuck off and walked away, but for some reason I felt the urge to follow this man. If I could at least find where these women were being kept, I might be able to report it to someone, and help these poor women go back to their homes. I knew the slave industry was big around the world, as much as it was there in Brazil, but I didn't think that I would come across it.
I followed the man to a building that was in shambles. It didn't look fit for animals, let alone humans.
As I continued to follow the man into the building, I put my hand in my pocket and pressed the button to display Dad's number. I wanted it ready in case I needed help.
The man led me past some men, that had weapons of different kinds in their hands. Others were lounging around, watching girls dance for them.
I really didn't want to know what was going on behind the closed doors.
At the back of the house was a large room that was clear of furniture, except for a couple of dirty looking sofa lounges that I would really prefer to not sit on.
"Please sit. I will go get the girls who are available." The creepy guy smiled as he spoke, then turned and walked from the room.
I noticed armed men standing by the door with smiles on their faces, as well.
They really thought this was perfectly normal, didn't they?
A line of girls walked into the room and lined up in front of me. There were twelve girls standing in front of me of various ages and race. I stood and walked along looking at them and wishing I could take all of them out of there. They were all dressed in their bra and panties, and that was all. All of them had their heads down, refusing to look me in the eye. I stopped in front of one, put my finger under her chin and lifted her face up so I could look her in the eyes.
I felt a chill run through my body and I knew that I had to get her out of here today at any cost.
I turned at looked at the men. "I've made my choice."
They ushered the girls from the room. The creepy little man walked over to me.
"You like the one known as Sara. She is beautiful and will make you very happy. She is ninety-three thousand, two hundred and sixty-five Real, or fifty thousand American dollars. You can come for her tomorrow; she will be ready for you." The greedy little man was eager to get his money; I however was not willing to wait. I had to get Sara out of there today.
"I will give you one hundred thousand American dollars today, for me to be able to take my future wife from here when I leave."
The little man was very happy by my offer.
"Yes, yes; I will have Sara prepared for you now." He practically ran from the room.
I sat there and waited for them to return; I was very anxious and wanted to get away from there as soon as possible.
Sara walked back into the room with her eyes to the ground; she was dressed in pants that were so big they were rolled up at the ankles, and tied at her waist with a piece of rope. Her shirt was a grey tank top that had a rip across the waist, exposing her skin underneath.
She walked over to me and sat on the dingy sofa next to me; her eyes remained on the floor the whole time.
The creepy man handed me a scrap of paper with some bank details written on them. I used my black berry to transfer the money into the account.
"Ok, it's all done. Can I take my wife with me now?" I asked. I wanted to get the hell out of there.
"My brother here has confirmed that the money has been deposited into our account. You and your new wife are free to go."
I gathered my bags and stood up. I held my hand out to Sara, and led her from the room. I noticed that we were being followed by the armed men; I think they just wanted to make sure that we left, and didn't snoop too much. I quickly led Sara from this hell hole, towards where I had the boat docked.
After I climbed in and placed the bags down, I turned to Sara and held my hand out to help her into the boat.
"It's ok I won't hurt you. I just want to make sure your safe." I was hoping I had used a gentle enough tone, and not scared her too much.
Sara took my hand and climbed into the boat. I made sure she was secure before starting the boat and taking off towards Isle Esme. I kept glancing over towards her; she remained with her eyes to the floor. She didn't utter a word the entire trip.
We reached home and I made sure the boat was docked safely. I grabbed the bags and climbed out, before, again, turning and holding my hand out to Sara. She took it and climbed out, keeping her eyes on the ground.
She was shivering, so I placed my bags down, and took off my coat. I placed it gently over her shoulders, and I could have sworn I noticed a small smile on her lips.
I led Sara towards the house; as we walked through the door, Mom came running towards me and skidded to a stop when she noticed I had a girl with me.
"Edward, who is this? Why have you brought this poor girl here?" Mom asked as she looked from Sara to me.
"Mom, I will explain it all to you and Dad, but first I would like to get Sara cleaned up and settled." I led Sara to my room, and I placed all the bags by the dresser. I was trying to decide what to do next when there was a gentle knock on the door.
I answered the door, and found Alice and Rosalie standing there.
"Edward, we will help Sara get cleaned up and settled. You need to go and explain to Mom and Dad how all this happened," Alice said gently. She walked by me with some bath products in her arms.
"You also need to go and stop your brother from charging in here to find out what's happened to Sara. I think it will scare her." Rosalie passed by me with various clothes in her arms.
Rose was so good for Emmett. I'm was glad he found such a beautiful wife, who also knew how to stand up for herself.
I left to find Mom and Dad. They were sitting in the family room with very worried expressions on their faces.
Jasper laughed and said, "Edward when you said that you were going to buy last minute gifts, I didn't think you were going to come back with a girl."
"First, Jasper, I will tell Alice you said that, and that sister of mine will kick your butt. So, unless you want a pissed off wife, I would say sorry. Second; I don't know how Sara came to be in that awful place, but I will tell you how I came across her," I stated before telling them how the creepy man had offered me a bride, and I had been taken to that awful place.
Mom turned and looked at Dad. "Carlisle, I think that if Sara allows it, you should do a check to make sure she is ok medically."
"I think that would be a good idea, Esme. Edward, have you decided what to do from here? What about Sara? I'm guessing that she wants to return to her family."
"Dad, we haven't talked about what happened to her, or what she wants to do, yet. She hasn't said anything to me." I looked down sadly.
"Ok, first step would be to go and do a medical check. Let's go and see what she says," Dad stated.
We walked back to my room; Alice was in the en suite with Sara, and Rosalie was laying some clothes out on the bed. Sara came out into the room, followed by Alice.
"Sara, I will let you get dressed, then I think it would be a good idea to have a talk about what we are going to do next. We'll wait in Dad's office. Alice, can you bring Sara in when she is dressed and ready?" I asked.
Mom, Dad and I walked to the office to wait for the girls to come down. It was only about twenty minutes later that they walked in.
I stood, walked over to Sara and held out my hand for hers. I led her to the sofa and sat down next to her.
"Sara, are you able to talk to us?" I asked ever so gently.
A very timid, "Yes," Slipped from Sara's lips.
"Ok, That's good. First none of us could ever understand what you have gone though. You don't have to talk to us if you don't feel like it. We want to make sure you are feeling better before you return to your family," I hoped I explained it gently enough.
For the first time, Sara's gaze came up off the floor, and she looked directly at me. "No. I don't have family. While I don't like what happened to me, I feel that I was lucky enough to find a man who will treat me well. Will you treat me well, Edward?" Sara whispered.
Mom and Alice let little gasps slip from their lips. Rosalie stomped out of the room, and I heard a distant, "I'll kill those fuckers who took Sara. If they hurt her..."
Sara looked up. "They didn't hurt me. I learnt quickly what would happen if I tried to fight them. Some of the other girls didn't learn quickly you going to marry me, Edward, like you told those men you were going to?" she asked before looking back at the floor.
"Sara, please don't feel like you need to look at the floor. You don't ever need to feel shy or scared here. This is your home now; if you want it to be, and if my family agrees," I said gently before Sara and I looked up at my family.
Mom stepped forward and pulled Sara to her feet before wrapping her in a hug. "Carlisle and I would love nothing more than to provide you with a home, Sara. Welcome to our family."
Carlisle looked to Sara. "When you feel up to it, and if you agree to it, I would like to make sure you are ok, medically. Don't worry I won't do anything you'll feel uncomfortable with, and you can have anyone you want there to make you feel comfortable."
Sara reached for Alice's hand. "Alice, would you and Rosalie be there?"
Alice wiped the tears from her eyes and wrapped her arms around Sara. "Of course, my sister, anything you want. I will do to help, and just try and stop Rose being there."
I looked up. "I'm going to leave you all here, and go unpack all the gifts I got while I was shopping. I'll send Rose up. Sara, if you need me, I'll be in my room. You'll be ok, Dad is a wonderful doctor." I smiled then left the room.
I went to my room and sat down on the bed.
What the fuck was I going to do?
I didn't want Sara to think I was rejecting her, but marriage now was too soon. Don't get me wrong, I really liked her but she needed to find herself before we did anything. We needed to get to know each other, before we became anything more than friends. I also wanted to find out if she liked me, for me, or if she just wanted a family.
While I sat on the bed, I did some online shopping. Seeing as Sara was family now, I needed to get something for her. I was searching various pages, and then I found the perfect thing for her. It would cost me a bundle getting it here before Christmas, but it was not like I was hard up for money.
I smiled to myself as I purchased the item, and some other things I thought Sara might need.
I didn't realize how long I had been sitting there for, when the door opened and Sara came into the room.
"Edward, Can we talk?" she asked so quietly I almost didn't hear her.
I shut down my computer and looked to Sara. "You can say or ask me anything." I wanted her to know she was safe and welcome.
"You didn't answer me before. Are you going to marry me?" Her eyes immediately fell to the floor as she said this.
"Oh, Sara. Come sit with me." We sat on the edge of my bed.
I took her hand. "Please hear me out. I don't want you to think I'm rejecting you, but I think it's too soon for marriage. I really like you, but I want us to get to know each other and become friends first; if that's what you want. If you decide you want more than that down the track, then we will talk."
Sara tried to get up and run from the room, but I got to the door first and she fell to her knees at my feet.
"Edward, I like you. I know it's strange but I knew from the moment I first glanced at you that I want to be with you. Haven't you ever heard of love at first sight?"
"If that's what you want, Sara, then I'm willing to give it a go, but I want to take it really slow to begin with. I'm sounding like a total pussy right now but your wellbeing comes first, and I want to make sure this is what you really want."
"I want this more than anything, Edward." She sighed and closed her eyes.
A single tear trickled down her cheek, and she opened her eyes and looked at me.
I leaned forward and placed a hand gently on either side of her face, then I pressed my lips against hers.
"Let's just take this really slow. I don't want you to get hurt."
"If I feel like it's too much, I promise, I will tell you Edward."
We took things slowly, and over the next week we got to know each other. Sara slowly started to gain more confidence and rarely looked down to the floor anymore. My family welcomed Sara with open arms, and before we knew it she was just one of us.
On Christmas morning we all sat around in the family room opening our gifts from each other. My planning of each gift was well thought out; everyone loved what I had given them.
Just when everyone thought the present opening was all done, I pulled out one last gift.
I got down on my knee in front of Sara and held the box out to her. "Sara, this is a promise ring. I want you to have it, as my promise to you that I will always be here for you, and for you to know that the moment I saw you, I wanted to be with you. I love you, Sara."
I placed the ring on the ring finger of Sara's left hand, and she leaned forward and kissed me with a tear stained face.
The kiss started to become more passionate and intense.
"Dude, Take it to your room. I don't need to see that shit," Emmett growled.
Sara and I broke apart panting with desire. "What's the matter, Emmett? Rose got you on rations or something? Poor Emmett can't get any loving," I said laughingly.
I got hit in the head by a chair cushion thrown by him.
"I'm guessing I was right. Emmett has had his cock locked away for safe keeping," I wise cracked.
The next thing I knew I copped a smack around the back of my head.
"What the fuck, mom..."
I looked around and found Sara was the one who had hit me.
Mom laughed. "I have to say, Edward, I'm loving Sara more and more each day."
"Yeah, Edward, Listen to your mommy. Don't say 'cock', and don't tease the big bear over there," Sara lectured
"Ooooh, Edward is in trouble from the girlfriend," Emmett teased.
"Fuck up, Emmett, or you won't have a cock to use," I shot back.
Sara approached me. "Edward, I told you not to say 'cock' in front of your mom. I can put yours on permanent lock down. So, are you going to behave?"
I looked around shocked, and everyone was laughing so hard they had tears running down their faces.
We went and had some breakfast. Emmett kept looking at me and smirking.
I'd get that fucker, for always giving me shit.
Everyone went their separate ways after breakfast, and I went up to my room. I walked into my en suite to have another shower. Sara saying 'cock' had gotten me so hot, I needed to cool down.
I had soaped up my hair, and was day dreaming when I thought I heard a noise. The next thing I knew the shower door opened and closed. Before I could open my eyes, I felt a soft and gentle hand cover my eyes. All I heard was, "Shhh."
I felt soft lips press against mine. Then the hand that was covering my eyes, slid down and joined the other hand that was running down my soapy body. I opened my eyes and found Sara looking up at me. She stepped forward and pressed her body against mine and I was instantly harder than I had ever been in my entire life.
Again Sara just said, "Shhh," and kissed me.
I couldn't hold back any longer and pushed her against the wall. I started kissing along her neck and gave her skin a little nip which earned a moan from the one I would make mine. I ran my hands down her body and stopped to pinch and pull her nipples.
"Edward, please; I need you. Just fuck me already," she pleaded.
I pulled her legs up and wrapped them around my waist, and before either of us could think, I plunged myself into her.
Oh god, I almost came right then.
I started to move myself in and out of her, and could feel myself right on the edge of that blissful abyss. I wanted my Sara to feel it first, so I tried my hardest to hold it off.
I turned the water off, and, with Sara still wrapped around me, got out of the shower and carried her to my bed. I laid her down and pulled her legs up over my shoulders to allow myself to go deeper into her.
"'Oh, fuck, Edward. Please don't stop."
I reached down and pinched her clit and felt her instantly fall over the edge. I kept moving and let her ride out her pleasure, then all of a sudden, she flipped us around so I was lying on the bed and she was on top of me.
Sara grabbed my hands and held them over my head as she lowered herself onto me. I hissed with the pure pleasure of it. She started rocking her hips back and forth, and as she arched her back, she started to pinch her own nipples.
I grabbed her hips and helped her rock her to rock them and before I knew it, she started screaming my name in pleasure.
I fell over the edge from just seeing my girl riding me and screaming my name.
Afterwards, we fell asleep holding each other. When I woke I found Sara just staring at me.
"I guess we just threw the whole 'let's take it slow' out the window, huh?" I laughed.
Sara giggled. "I guess we did." She snuggled into my side and rested her head on my shoulder.
"Sara, I don't know what's going to happen from here, but I know one thing; I love you more than anything."
"I love you too, Edward." She looked up and smiled at me before kissing me.
"Sara, my love...?"
"Yeah, Edward"
"Marry me..."
