Chapter Seven
A Virgins Scent
That night I could not sleep, every sound made me nervous; I don't think I had ever been so afraid before in my entire life.
One Two were coming for you- three four you better lock your doors- five six you better pick up sticks- seven eight- virgin blood is great.
I could hear someone singing this weird song, I rushed to the window. It was a girl, her back was to me and she had lined up several sticks in front of the tower. Suddenly she turned around and I saw them, bright red eyes. I jumped back quickly and fell over, I peaked at the window and there were little hands holding on tightly. Slowly she lift her head up and her red eyes stared at me. As she pulled herself up further I could see her entire innocent face. Then her eyes seemed alarmed, she made a face expression that showed signs of struggle. Then she let go and she was gone, I noticed then that I had pissed myself.
I closed my eyes and held myself so tightly.
"Let's get you cleaned up my love." I could hear Caius sultry voice and never had I ever been so happy to hear someone's voice.
He picked me up and carried me into the bathroom, he was tender. I watched him set the water to the right temperature as he began to run my bath. He turned to me and slowly unbuttoned my top. I didn't speak, I was still in shock and feeling overwhelmed; he was in total control of me. I could hear my shirt fall to the ground, I wasn't wearing a bra so my breast hung freely. He kissed my right breast softly, then he slid down my skirt. I could feel a tear fall from my eyes. I reached for my panties, I wanted to take them off myself.
"I wet myself from fear."
"I know that already Bella, don't feel ashamed about it." He moved my hands and slid my sunken panties off and he didn't make any sort of disgusted face. He picked me up and placed me into the tub. He held my hand and stared at me, he seemed peaceful.
"I know what you are now."
"Yeah, I could smell his scent when I came in here. I know Emmet was here and I can only assume that he told you everything."
"Yes but I am still so confused, why are you putting me in harms way?"
"I am working on that, I have come to a conclusion about that actually. My conclusion solves everything really."
"What's your conclusion."
"You could have left with Emmet but you didn't, so it's me then. You want me no matter what and I have to do something I promised myself I would never do again."
"What?"
"Change a human girl that I love. Bella I love you, when my family told me we were moving to forks I knew why. I knew that it was time, they had wanted her dead for years really and I protected her. But I could no longer prolong it, everyone thinks I've gone mad over the years. The Cullen's were here and so were we now, my family despises their lifestyle and they would have been killed them if it weren't Aro's fondness of Carlisle. They are both the fathers of their families really.
Jane, that's the little girl who was here earlier, she hates the fact that they live the way they do and Edward gave us more excuses when we noticed he was dating you. But something happened, my job was to watch you two to gain evidence. I found myself becoming fond of you, and Edward is such a pussy cat. I knew I was better for you, and given the chance you would see it. So when Edward left you, I took that opportunity and ran with it. You have dated him and you know him and now you know me, do you want to be with me?"
"Yes, I choose you."
"Then I must change you soon as I promised my family."
"Then what of the Cullen's?"
"Why do you care?"
"That is my heart, I care about people."
"Well once I have a life mate there is nothing to cure me of, so why must anyone die."
"When will you change me?"
"Soon but I want a little time with you as is."
I smiled, my heart felt warm inside. Caius washed my hair, he was so gentle with me. I loved the way he massaged my scalp so softly. He moved on to my body so gracefully and I felt taken care of in a way I never had before. He was nothing like Edward, he made me feel wanted and he was the kind of man who would fight for me.
Caius lift me out of the water and dried me down with a large thick towel he wrapped it around me, then he carried me to bed. He laid down next to me.
"Bella?"
"What?"
"What is your favorite color?"
"Red."
"Yeah, I know." We laughed and it felt so natural that's when I noticed him staring into the window. It was Edward, I had never seen him like that; so very distraught. Then he was gone and my heart sunk into my chest."
"Caius?"
"Yes my love."
"Hold me tight." He wrapped his arms around me.
"Tighter."
I felt his grip tighten.
"Your safe here with me Bella."
"I know that I am."
When I awoke it was dark and Caius was gone, there was a letter waiting for me on the desk.
I should never think
What's in your heart
What's in our home
So I won't
You'll learn to hate me
But still call me baby
Oh love So call me by my name
And save your soul
Save your soul
Before your to far gone Before nothing can be done
I'll try to decide when She'll lie in the end
I ain't got no fight in me In this whole damn world
So hold off She should hold off It's the one thing that I've known
Once I put my coat on I coming out in this all wrong
She standing outside holding me Saying oh please I'm in loveI'm in love
Girl save your soul Go on save your soul Before it's to far gone And before nothing can be done
Cause without me You got it all So hold on Without me you got it all So hold on Without me you got it all
Without me you got it all So hold onWithout me you got it all Without me you got it all So hold on
Edward
The last part of the letter haunted me the most, without me you got it all so hold on. Why did he always think like that, this was the exact reason we weren't together. I thought about something else he wrote too, go on save your soul before it's too far gone and before nothing can be done. I walked to the window and stared out once again, like I had done so many times before. To my surprise I saw someone moving about, I hoped it was not that little girl again. She was a terrifying little thing, but I could tell it was the figure of a man.
Was it Edward, was he out there watching over me. The figure came close then it disappeared, for the first time ever I heard a knock. I looked around, there was no entrance. I followed the sound, it was coming from the area of the room where my desk was. I stared at the wall and again, knock - knock. I pushed against the wall and it parted, slowly I could see it was a door; it just didn't have knobs. It moved to the right and a man walked in.
He was handsome and his eyes were like Edwards so I knew he was a Cullen.
"Can I come in?"
"Yes you can, you kind of already are."
He walked forward and his back was to me now, he took off his coat and sat it on the chair were my desk stood.
"So much red." He said as he turned to face me.
"Yeah, I know."
"I'm Jasper, I belong to Alice."
"Hi, nice to meet you. I have had so many visitors lately. If this is about Alice she is no longer in danger."
"Actually that's not why I am here."
"It's not.'
"No why would I come to you about Alice, there is nothing you could possibly to protect her."
"Well then what's up?"
"It's Edward."
"I'm sorry that he is hurting Jasper, really I am."
"I can't tell you who to love but I can tell you who to trust. Edward would only do what is best for you, think about that. What sometimes seems good and fun, possibly exciting; that's not always what Is best. You have to learn to love what's good for you, you know what I mean."
"I think I do. Jasper I care for Edward deeply but he only pushes me away and now I am gone."
"Were not going to let them just use you Bella."
"No one is using me."
"There are things you don't understand."
"No there are things you don't understand Jasper."
"Their going to eat you alive, from the inside out. Chew you up and spit you out when they are done. We can't stand by because we care about Edward and he cares about you."
"No it's not what you think, I'm going to be changed soon and everything will work itself out."
Jaspers eyes grew large with despair.
"Never, Edward would never let that happen to you. Not by the hands of Caius, he is a monster and monsters don't change."
"He cares for me."
"I'm sorry that you think that, really I am. Look what ever you do, don't give your virginity to him."
"Why not?"
Jasper rolled his eyes then he sat down at my desk. "I'm going to stay here with you tonight Bella."
"Why is that?"
"To protect you."
"I'm okay no one is going to hurt me."
"Go to sleep and tomorrow I will take you somewhere, there is something you must see."
As I slept I found myself dreaming of Caius, he was inside my bed on top of me. He was making love to me and I was moaning. It was one of those dreams that felt real, I felt someone shake me. When I awoke Jasper was standing over me, he looked stunned.
"You have got to stop, the scent of it; the action itself it's not becoming."
"What?"
"Your touching yourself, inside."
When I looked down I realized I was naked and my finger was inside me.
"Were you watching me, how did all my clothes get off."
"You took them off and you been going at it ever since. I tried not to look, I have been a gentlemen but the scent is becoming too much to take."
"What does the scent do to you?"
"Bella?"
"Yeah?"
"Stop it, I am not a man who has lot's of self control; I am no Edward."
