Charlie

What the Fuck! Why are they all just standing there? Where has he taken my daughter and how do we get her back? I need to follow them, I'm not just going to let him take her! He was totally out of control and they did nothing!

" Don't even think it Chief! That's one man you never want to tangle with. He's taken his mate away because he deems it not safe here and until she calm's him down, they won't be back!" Peter said smiling,

what the hell was he smiling about,

"Something funny son, cause I don't see it?" I demanded.

"You know that sayin', 'Elvis has left the buildin''? Well, let's just say Jasper has too! That Charlie was the 'Major' and you don't ever want to get on the bad side of him! Didn't you see us all move back, that wasn't voluntarily, that was him projectin' fear, moved us! Your shield protected you as did Bella's for her" he replied calmly.

"So I do nothing, just let him take my daughter, I don't think ...," I started to say,

"That's just it, you ain't thinkin'! You accused them of not learnin' but you doin' the same! Stop treatin' us as if we're human, we ain't! That's a vampire protectin' his mate and you can't and won't do diddly squat, is that clear enough for you now, Chief!" Peter said and for once he sounded pissed off.

"Humph!" was all I could say because he, of course, was right.

Bella

Well, this is different, not that I don't like the purring and a little bit of the 'He-Man' stuff, but I'm hardly dressed for a cross-country dash! So far Jasper hasn't responded to anything I say and well I'm getting a little pissed here, what with all the bouncing about.

So when my phone buzzes and I manage to wriggle it free, finding a text from Jasper's brother,

'Major, call him Major if you want a response, sorry you had to find out like this, Blame Alice! Peter x'

Okay, how cryptic was that, find out what? Looks like they were holding out on me and that doesn't sit too well, I'm nothing if not honest and up front!

"Okay Major that's far enough! Put me down and tell me what the hell is going on!" I say and nothing,

well actually he's gripping tighter and that shit hurts.

"Major! Put Me Down, You're Hurting Me!" I yell and that does the trick,

he stops abruptly and I slid from his grip with a yelp. Only to be caught again less painfully before I hit the ground.

"What in hell's name is going on? and why the fuck do I need to call you by some army rank, to get your attention?" I am all out demanding now and he growls at me,

"Don't you dare growl at me buster, now start talking or I'm out of here!" I tell him hands on hips and tapping my foot.

"No, you're my mate, you have to stay! You do as I say now?" he answered,

his tone was more clipped than Jasper's usually is, but it was not an order, in fact, he didn't seem that sure himself, Well I could work with that.

"Not if you don't start explaining what the hell is going on! I mean it Jasper or 'Major' whoever the hell you are?" I huff and he just stares at me,

"Just when exactly, were you planning on telling me you shared your body with someone else? You've had three days!" I'm starting to get pissed off with the strong silent type stance he has going on,

"Like last night for instance! Happy to fuck my brains out, but not good enough to talk to obviously!" that certainly got his attention, because now he's hissing, growling and pulverising the nearest tree.

This time my phone rings and I pull it out and answered,

"I'm sorry Bella's not available at the moment, please leave a message, unless you're a vampire, then please leave your next set of lies!" then I hung up, knowing it was Peter.

Peter

"Shit! Shit! Shit!" I roared, she was supposed to calm him down, not rile him up more! Everyone's head shot up and Charlie jumped to his feet.

"What's going on Peter? What's wrong?" Esme asked,

"She's not calmin' him down, she's so angry with him, that's it feedin' his anger!" I tell them,

"But he won't hurt her! So maybe it's time they both, Jasper and the 'Major' I mean, got some home truths!" Rose said smirkin',

"What?" Charlie said confused,

"He's had a couple of days to explain all about himself, while he was Jasper and he hasn't! So it's time the 'Major' realised that Pay Backs a bitch when you piss off your mate!" Charlotte said laughin',

I don't understand women at all, how's makin' him mad a good thin'? The pixie bitch's head was smilin', she knew this would happen and was happy about it, hopin' he'd hurt her I suppose Stupid psycho, a mate can't physically hurt his other half, but mentally that's another thin' altogether. I turned Alice's head to face the wall, not likin' the look of satisfaction on it.

Major

God Damn it! This was not how my mate should have met me. What was that fool thinkin'? Why didn't he tell her? Alright, this is my chance, she needs to know both sides of us and I'm gonna tell her!

"Sit darlin', my Isabella and I'll tell you everythin' Jasper should have! Our name is Major Jasper Whitlock, not Hale or Cullen, but Whitlock. Yes just like Peter, We gave him our surname as he didn't remember his" I said, knowin' she made the connection,

I then told her every sordid detail, no sugar coatin', no holdin' back, everythin'! I watched her closely and she showed no signs of revulsion or distaste, but her emotions were full on, sorrow, love and pride? How could she be proud of us? The killer of thousands! Closin' my eyes, not to hide from her look, but to soak up her emotions, is when I felt and heard her move in front of me,

"You are so strong, so brave and resilient! You survived hell and came out the other side! You're my warrior, Major and I love you!" she said strokin' my face and my arm at the same time.

I could sense her need to check me over, just as Jasper had done to her earlier and I thought I'd help her alon' by removin' my clothes since we were alone. Not only would she see I was unharmed, well recently anyway, but she would see our scars more clearly. They always seemed to stand out more on me, than him. Her breathin' hiked and so too did her arousal, I liked that, I liked that a lot.

The feel of her warm hands stroking my torso and neck, followed by little kisses, then licks, it was amazin'. She walked right round me doin' this and it was drivin' me crazy with need, desire and my body reacted to her touch. As she stood once more in front of me, I felt her reach out for me and shuddered in her small hand.

My eyes flew open as she dropped to her knees in front of me and took my strainin' erection into her mouth. It took all my willpower not to thrust forward, I looked down and saw her mouth wrapped around me and growled loudly, this only spurred her on to move faster and grip tighter.

Her other hand stroked, fondled and squeezed my balls, that was my undoing and I tried to pull back but she clutched my ass with both hands and swallowed at the same time, bringin' her lips against my body and I exploded into her mouth and down her throat roarin' out with satisfaction. I may have been around for more than a century but that was the first time I'd been deep throated and to know it was my mate was overwhelmin'.

I lifted her off of me and pinned her to a nearby tree, rippin' her clothes from her body and seein' her own arousal glistenin' in the moonlight thrust into her in one swift movement. Her scream of pleasure had me riled up and trustin' maybe not as gently as I should, but she urged me on and it wasn't much longer till we both called out in unison as we climaxed together. I leant forward and bit into her left breast, leavin' my mate's bite upon her perfect skin.

This was not to change her, neither did it hold deadly venom. This was a mate's bite and it was just to claim her as mine for the world to sense, but not see. It held a unique mixture of my DNA, that would permeate her body and release pheromones in the presence of other male vampires. When I changed her my sire's bite would be on her neck, where the venom would take the shortest route to her heart.

Bella

Well, this was interesting, my mate had two distinct sides! Jasper was the calm, gentle, loving side, who avoided issues apparently and the Major was the angry, rough diamond, dominant side, who met things head on. Oh, the endless possibilities! Can you cheat on your lover with himself? I knew Jasper was scarred, but they seemed more, looked worse on the Major.

I noticed they both call me Isabella, but he called me darling, while Jasper calls me baby. Well, I'll always know who I'm screwing this way. I picked up his shirt and put it on, as my own clothes lay in tatters all around us. That's when I realised he was standing with his head down, not looking at me. Ah!

"Put your clothes on Jasper, we need to get back, it's damned chilly out here in just your shirt!" I said handing them to him and rubbing his arm so he'd know everything was okay,

"I'm sorry baby, I know I should have been the one to tell you, but I was scared and waited too long, He didn't hurt you did he?" he asked softly,

"No Jasper, you didn't hurt me. He's still you, just angrier!" I laughed and he sighed.

I texted Esme to open the back door and leave me some clothes without Charlie being aware hopefully, maybe they could distract him for a few minutes, then we all need to decide what's going to be happening now. Plus I was dead on my feet, all this stress was starting to get to me. I smiled to myself as I turned and asked,

"How about a lift back, not quite your bike, but infinitely sexier, Mr Whitlock!"

When we returned Charlie was upstairs getting a shower. So I managed to slip in under his radar and get dressed, reluctantly giving Jasper back his shirt. Alice's head was turned to the wall as I entered the lounge,

"Morning Alice. How as we today?" I said turning her head around.

"Aren't you happy to see me? Did you think the Major would hurt me? God, you're so dumb! A mate no matter who they are can't hurt their significant other. Didn't you know that?" I say laughing at the angry look she was trying to give me.

"Do you want to know a secret? Look! Now no telling okay?" I taunt her, whilst showing her my mate's bite and her face is contorted with hatred.

Narrator

It's decided everyone should go over to the Cullens house, put Alice's head in Carlisle's study as it's soundproofed and make some plans. She doesn't know about Charlie's or Bella's shields and they want it kept that way. Rose said Carlisle and Maggie would be back in six hours, then there needed to be some serious decisions made.

Emmett had been on his computer for hours before finally yelling, "He's dead, Alice's mate and so is his coven! No warning, just wiped out by a warlord's newborns. She could have saved them all if she'd been there!"

it was all documented in the Volturi archives, which Emmett had hacked. In nineteen twenty-five the Webster coven, situated closest to the Mexican border was attacked with no survivors remaining. A marauding gang of newborns wiped them out, for no reason but they could. Before they too were killed by the Volturi and the warlord executed for the breach.

Alice had been so hell-bent on following her twisted path that she messed up her on future. God how stupid and wasteful, she waited twenty-three more years after her mate had died to catch a man who didn't want her. Then kept twisting her visions to fit her dream and no one else's. She was a sad pathetic child, who cut of her own nose to spite her face.

Word came from Carlisle their plane had landed and they would be there in just over an hour. A plan was being devised in Jasper's head, the Volturi might think Alice was worth keeping alive after all. So she would be sent to Volterra minus several of her body parts.

Her tongue, which Maggie would hide, not telling Carlisle where until he returned.

Her eyes, which Tanya and Edward would each also conceal somewhere unknown.

Her hands, which Jasper and Kate would see to, secreting them away from sight.

Lastly, her feet which Irina and Emmett would also keep hidden, none would ever be returned, if she was not destroyed in front of Carlisle.

So she would still get visions yes, but could never leave Volterra unaided, unable to feed herself, dress herself or do anything unaided ever again. She would always feel the pain of the separation from them and would become a severe burden to the Volturi if they refused to destroy her for her crimes. Jasper thought it best to pre-empt Aro on this matter.

He reminded those who were a little squeamish about it, that Alice would have killed his mate and had already attempted to do so to Charlie and also Tanya's mate, to get her own way. So they backed down and agreed, that this would be the only way to get the upper hand.

Alice who could see nothing and hear nothing of what was happing outside Carlisle's study suddenly got a clear vision of her future for the very first time. She was terrified, she'd be a living corpse unable to do anything and she prayed to die for the first time. That would be much more preferable than the only other option in front of her now.

She rued the day she fixated on Major Jasper Whitlock because she was no match for him, the God of War. She'd overlooked that he was also a past master of torture techniques.

Bella

So it has been decided that Carlisle, Tanya, and Kate will take Alice to Volterra since two of the three's mates were there. Carlisle would give over the diaries first then her, to be read only. Then ask for the death penalty, saying Charlie was being changed while they were there and me in six months time.

This to not draw unwanted attention before I would drop out of college and sell up and move back home. He was also to give the Volturi Jasper's word, as the Whitlock coven leader and as the God of War, that I would be changed at the end of the requested six months. Banking on their fear and respect for him to sway the deal.

Everyone else was actually going to be near at hand, just in case, things didn't go to plan and a new one needed to be devised quickly. Meanwhile, I decided I needed to tackle Charlie. It was becoming so annoying, his behaviour towards Jasper and his disregard of the fact he had no say in my love life now. He needed to give it up before I did something about it.

"Dad? A word please" I said and suddenly we were alone except for Jasper and Irina.

"This has gone far enough! I'm done being polite about it, you need to back off or we're out of here once everything is sorted" I huffed as he went to interrupt.

"Eternity is a long time to have you on our backs. Especially as it has nothing to do with you! I'm an adult and I will not have you treat me like a child anymore" I said firmly and with no qualms.

He did that dad thing clearing his throat and crossing his arms, but before he could open his mouth I delivered my final statement,

"Accept it Charlie or lose me from your life permanently, there is no in between here, no grey areas!" I said raising my eyebrow and watched him deflate slightly, finally, he sees the light, Halleluiah!

Aro

I was just trying to decide what to do with Greyson, a nomadic vampire. He had been framed for a crime he hadn't committed by an unknown vampire. This no doubt would eventually come to light, but that was not the problem. He is a damned Incubus and they are a pain in the royal backside. Almost all the women in Volterra were drooling over him, much to Caius' disgust and a fair few of the men too.

I was getting rather annoyed by Renata, she kept wandering off after him and leaving me unguarded. Chelsea's gift could do nothing in the face of either a Succubus or an Incubus. This was a chemical reaction in the body and I don't know of any who can resist. Oh now that's a lie, Edward Cullen, he's resisted the temptation for years, silly boy!

Suddenly I received word unexpected guests had arrived, and speak of the devil and she's sure to appear. The Queen of succubae herself, Tanya Denali and Carlisle Cullen were asking for an audience! Well, this should be interesting, I signalled for them to be brought in.

"Forgive us for this unannounced visit Aro, but we come on a matter of some importance," Carlisle said with some tension in his voice,

Tanya was sniffing the air, looking for something or someone. Oh, this would be perfect, could she be sensing Greyson? I can't have them both in the chamber together, the last time a Succubus and Incubus met here, we got a floor show that has never been paralleled! In took days to stop them and poor Jane was mentally scarred, I'm convinced.

Carlisle handed a set of Journals to Felix asking him to give them to me, Marcus and Caius. We skimmed through them as Carlisle told us the sordid tale of Alice Brandon, formally Cullen, but no more. It was shocking and insightful, she was obviously totally insane. We realised immediately who was Tanya's mate.

Carlisle then introduced Kate Denali, also a succubus, with her was Alice, well a hideous parody of Alice. He explained who's idea it was to send her to us like this and Caius smirked. The fabled Major, proving a point no doubt, I understood right away. He was making sure she was worthless to me, so I would not stay my hand.

So Kate Denali's mate was part of the guard, but who? Jane, Heidi or Renata? I was about to find out as Heidi herself swept into the room announcing the arrival in one hour of another tour. She stopped short seeing Kate and as they say, 'it was a done deal'. So who would be moving where? We'd missed our chance at Kate before because of her mother's stupidity. Would she now become one of us?

I read Alice and found out about the humans Charlie and Isabella, father and daughter and of the shapeshifter, but I held that to myself. I couldn't have Caius going off on one of his cleansings, it drew too much attention to us. I also saw her true mate and was shocked, and a little angry.

"The humans Carlisle?" I asked as Caius bristled, the diaries had been unclear but they were both obviously human.

He explained with Alice away, Irina was changing Charlie now and the Major wished a stay of six months for the daughter, so as not to draw unwanted attention, due to the father being in law enforcement. Marcus nodded and Caius grumbled but we said yes, he was not a man to go against and he had many friends. We would also grant them the execution of Alice, she was beyond saving.

"Alice Brandon, you are to be executed for your crimes against the Cullens, Denali's and Whitlock's, as well as the Volturi itself. But before you die, I would like to tell you that, your true mate Dominic Webster was being groomed to be the fourth Volturi leader. You would have been one of the Queens Alice if you'd stayed on the right path! You lost yourself the throne." I said sorrowfully, he had been a good friend and was sadly missed.

At a nod from me, Felix took her head and burned her body where it crumpled once Kate released her. Throwing her head down on top of it, we watched as she disintegrated into dust. I shook Carlisle's hand as he thanked us and saw his thoughts on it all and how happy they all were on their strange diet, I never thought it possible but, stranger things happen every day.

"Good luck on your match with Maggie, she's a rare gem indeed," I said smiling, I assumed they thought I wouldn't catch that both the Swan's had gifts. But it would keep, for now, I would wait and see and if need be revisited at another time.
