Peter was well aware he needed to change Bella before he was eventually summoned to Volterra. He had evaded it for over fourteen years but even Aro had a limit and they were close to reaching it now. With the execution of Alice and Edward, Aro would want his personal thought on the now defunct Cullen coven and how everyone had taken it and what they were doing now. Something's could not be conveyed by words alone, he knew this and if she was still human, well! He may work for Aro but he didn't like all his practices and the royal bending of the rules.
When Bella awoke, she was at first confused to where she was, then recognised the sickly pink room she was in and thought Peter must have brought her home last night. She was just wondering where he might be and praying he hadn't left, every year was the same they seemed to get closer and then he was gone for another whole year. She wouldn't be able to stand it, especially now that he knew how she felt about him, fear propelled her out of bed and down the stairs, but there was no sign of him and she crumpled to the floor sobbing.
Peter was just returning from the Cullen's, he had needed to be there for the uplift of everyone's things, he was sure he'd be back before Bella woke, he had left a note on the table by her bed just in case. He could hear the crying from miles away and sped up thinking something had happened to little bit, his heart broke as he found her lying on the hallway floor, quickly he gathered her up, rocking her body gently and begging her to tell him what was wrong. "I.. I thought..! You weren't here! I thought you had left me again!" she wailed and he cursed himself for being so stupid, of course, she would think he'd left, he always did.
He shushed her and stroke her hair and back, trying to calm her, "Suga'? I left a note by the bed, I guess you didn't see it? I'm sorry, I should have woken you to tell you I was going to the Cullen's house for the removal men arriving! I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to scare you, I'm never leaving you again! Please believe me!" he said clutching her tighter and placing kisses on her hair and forehead. Bella was gripping his shirt, trying to get closer to him, she lifted her face to look at him and saw the sadness in his eyes. She lifted her hand and stroked his face, running her fingers over the angular plains of it and through his sandy blond hair, something she'd wanted to do for years.
He bent forward and placed a tender kiss on her lips, then her eyelids, nose, cheekbones and back to her lips, which she parted for him. That was all the invitation he needed, deepening the kiss and delving into her mouth with his cool probing tongue. Bella was gasping for breath when he pulled back and her heart was pounding, she was beyond happy and more than a little turned on, grabbing the back of his head and kissing him again fiercely. "Slow down sweetheart we have all the time in the world" he tried to soothe her, but Bella had waited four long years since she admitted to herself how much she loved him and was not prepared to wait any longer.
He had long since lifted her off the floor and was sitting on the sofa with her in his lap, she sat up and swung her leg over his, so she was now straddling his thighs. Bella was still wearing the long length t-shirt from yesterday, but her legs were bare apart from her socks, Peter must have removed her jeans when he put her to bed. She leant back slightly looking him fully in the eye and took one of his hands in hers, using his index finger she slit down the front of her shirt till it parted, exposing her body to him in a lacy green sheer bra and boy shorts set, Bella heard him growl at the same time she felt him stiffen below her.
Sliding forward she ground down on Peter's erection and he moaned loudly as he took one of her nipples between his lips with the lace still covering it, but as she thrust her chest into his mouth, he shredded it giving his hands and mouth free access. Bella had her hands in Peter's hair and clutched him to her aching body, but she needed more and had set up a slow grinding rhythm over him. Peter had been momentarily stunned when she had used his nail to slit her shirt but was delighted to see her beautiful body encased in the sheer green concoction, though it didn't last long under his hands, unfortunately.
Bella had now lowered her hands and was running them up his back and over his abs, but wanted to see his body to, so she slid it up till it was bunched under his armpits and Peter pulled it off out of her way. He knew she would now see his scars clearly and was a little apprehensive, he had told her about the years ago, but she leant in and started first kissing them and then licking or nipping the marred skin of his body and it was driving him crazy with lust, they were so sensitive. At no point did she stop grinding her hips down onto him and he felt her heat even through his jeans. The pure unadulterated aroma of her desire for him was almost more than Peter could stand, he turned sideways and lowered Bella back against the cushions of the sofa, she was only wearing those ridiculously small boy shorts and her fluffy socks now, he thought she would never look sexier to him ever.
Bella squirmed, unhappy to have lost her friction and she growled low in her throat at him, his hand had been on her hip when he heard the erotic sound of his mate growling so the little green shorts went the way of her bra shredded into oblivion. He was gazing down adoringly at her now, but had stilled his movements and Bella wasn't standing or in this case lying down for that "Peter! I need you to touch me now baby!" and that was all the encouragement he needed. Dropping his head to between her thighs and inhaling deeply before diving in and giving Bella the most mind-blowing orgasm of her life so far, although she was still a virgin, she had spent many nights fantasizing about Peter in the past with her trusty rabbit in hand.
On the outside, all looked to be going well and as planned, but on the inside, cracks were beginning to show that would send shockwaves across the world. Maybe if Aro hadn't wanted to gloat, or maybe if Esme had paid closer attention, someone might have seen Carlisle's depression after the death of his beloved son, turn to hate and blaming everyone except Edward or the events that led to his demise. He laid the blame at everyone's door except his own, for spoiling the boy and Edward's, for being so selfish and greedy.
Alice for leading his astray and getting him involved in things he didn't understand!
Bella for enticing him with her scent and using her womanly ways to ensnare his child!
Peter for killing him, for no good reason!
Aro for blaming Edward out of hand, when it was obvious to him it was all Alice's doing!
The pack for stopping Edward get what he wanted, by hiding the human!
Jasper for not helping him to control his bloodlust and sensitive emotions better!
Rose and for not loving Edward and not being more supportive!
Emmett making fun of his more talented brother and forging that heinous video!
Esme for not loving him enough and allowing the other to treat him badly!
Yes, Carlisle had even conveniently forgotten Edward's plan to have him and his mate killed. So by the time the phone call from Volterra happened, he had become embittered and withdrawn, enough that Esme was starting to see and feel the effects. She had been so busy setting up the new house and taking care of everything that Carlisle would normally do, she missed the first signs of how changed he had become in the last two days.
He demanded they have separate rooms that morning! Refused yesterday after they arrived, to work at the local hospital saying "Humans are cruel, selfish and lazy they don't deserve my help!" When she was sorting out the guest rooms, just over an hour ago, he had told her "They are not welcome here! I will not have those traitorous ingrates in my home ever!" She was really getting worried and when he refused to allow her to comfort him, physically pushing her away she was downright panicked. She made her first call the Jasper that morning, whilst out hunting and trying frantically to work out what to do for her mate.
Unfortunately, that was when Aro decided to call Carlisle, offering false platitudes and saying "My old friend, my hands were tied, I had no option but to punish you and remove those two for their crimes!" Carlisle was beyond angry and verbally attacked Aro and said he was just angry because Edward refused to join the guard, Aro had laughed saying "Well that would have been easy for him, as he had never once been offered a place here in Volterra!" This incensed Carlisle and he accused Aro of lying, now that Edward was no longer here to refute him. This did not go down well, "Be very careful Carlisle, you're standing on shaky ground right now!" was all he said before he hung up and Carlisle flipped out trashing the lounge area and destroying all his mate's hard work.
