Last time:

CPOV

Day 14

Charlie and I got some chairs and sat outside the room. Jasper Emmett and Edward looked at us.

"What?" we asked at the same time.

They just shook their heads keeping their comments to themselves.

We waited outside the room for two hours before we were allowed back in and I knew I looked like an idiot as I froze in the door way.

They had curled her long mahogany hair into curls that framed her face and fell down her back. Her make-up was light but what made me freeze was her smile. She looked so happy. Charlie motioned for one of the boys to push me forward making me stumble.

My Angel giggled silently.

You look even more amazing Angel. I signed, You are a true vision. I pulled her into my embrace gently and kissed her slowly and sensually. She began playing with the hair on my neck and I purred.

She pulled back and looked up at me…

Shit!

Chapter 8: How?

CPOV

Day 14 cont.

My family and Charlie froze.

I felt myself become the statue that I was.

Carlisle…did…did you just purr?

I motioned for everyone to leave us.

"I need to talk to Bella alone." I said as she gave me a questioning look.

Everyone left except for Charlie who began signing, Hear him out. Please know that I know what he is about to tell you and have allowed him near you. He is a good man. Trust in him.

She nodded looking confused, I trust Carlisle with my life.

Charlie left giving me a nod.

"Bella…I …yes I purred." I said sitting next to her bed.

Why…How?

"I purred because it felt really nice to have your fingers in my hair. No one has ever done that before." I said slowly trying to get her to understand, I closed my eyes knowing rejection was around the corner. Then I felt her fingers in my hair again.

I had to whimper.

She continued to run her fingers through my hair. I leaned forward allowing her better access.

"I purr and whimper because I am different." I began again. She took one of my hands so that it covered one of hers. I know your different. I shook my head and whimpered, "No you don't know how different I am. My dear Angel I am a monster. I wished our time together could have been longer for I have no idea what will become of me once you order me away." She continued moving her hand in my hair trying to sooth me. I paused letting the motions relax me, I purred again much to her content.

"Isabella, what have you noticed about me…that's different?" I asked gently.

Your cold, but warm. Your skin seems hard but feels like silk on my arms. Your eyes have changed color since I first met you. You don't eat much. Your handsome and a single father. 'Yes Angel all of that is true to you but love I am a monster. I am cold because I am dead. Warm because you warm my soul. My skin is all but impenetrable. Though smooth. When I have gone too long without feeding my eyes become darker. I never eat food. And yes I am handsome and single and the others look towards me as if I was their father but I am not." She looked up at me scrunching her nose.

But you love me, so I don't care. I love you for who and what you are whatever it may be.

"Angel it warms my heart to hear that but you must know that I am.." I paused looking into her eyes as I spoke, "Love I am a vampire."

She continued to look into my eyes, she pulled her hand out of my hair, I couldn't help but whimper. She placed her hand on my cheek, caressing me gently. Using her free hand she signed.

You are a vampire. I nodded. You won't hurt me.

"Never my Angel" I said firmly.

Then what is the problem honey?

"You …but what do I eat?" I asked surprised at how easy she was taking this.

I don't know but I know you only do whatever you do to sustain yourself and would never eat me so who am I to judge you. I eat meat. That meat comes from animals who have souls and were once alive.

I couldn't help it I leaned in and kissed passionately. I started moving to hover over her but I felt her tense slightly so I pulled back. "I love you Isabella, my Angel."

I love you to Carlisle.

"Just to let you know I am a vegetarian vampire. Me and the others we don't follow the normal diet. We refuse to drink from humans so we sustain ourselves with animal blood." I explained holding her in my embrace as she began to run her hands through my hair again.

I purred from happiness, loving the feeling as much as the smile that it brought onto my Angel's face.

I heard the others enter but I remained with my love in my arms, purring for her.

"Dang he really built those up huh?" Emmett blurted after I had been purring for ten minutes straight.

I hissed turning abruptly to face him; I did not like being interrupted. Everyone stared at me as crouched in front of Bella blocking her from view.

I felt a warm familiar hand on my lower back, I purred at the feeling and stood up facing my Angel once more.

I looked at her sadly as she pulled her hand back, Be nice to them, and don't be mean. Apologize, NOW! She was signing with a lot of emotion on her face.

I heard Charlie snicker. Bella turned to glare at him and he suddenly became very interested in his shoes.

"I'm sorry for my behavior and for hissing like I did. I feel very protective and did not like being interrupted." I said looking at my kids and Charlie.

They all forgave me, and as I turned back toward Bella, she gave me a smile, Now, what did Emmett mean with you really built those up?

"Oh the purrs. You see a vampire only purrs when they are extremely pleased, or comfortable. Usually…um…a vampire usually only purrs for their …um…mate." I was stuttering like there was no tomorrow.

But the smile that came onto her face calmed me immediately, Are you saying I am your mate?

"Um, well" I huffed, "This is harder than telling you I'm a vampire. Well you see a vampire only falls in love once. When a vampire falls in love it is called bonding. When a vampire bonds with another vampire or in my case with a human they become mated. Of course to finish the bonding or um mating…the couple must umm…consummate their union." Charlie was red to the point he was almost purple and Bella had a very beautiful blush covering her.

She got my hands and covered hers with them, So no one see what I am about to say in front of my father. I stopped her hands.

Switching mine with hers. You should know Alice sees the future, Edward reads minds but can't read yours, and Jasper has mood control.

She switched our hands. It's okay if they hear in your mind, feel in our emotions, or see in the future but I don't want my dad to know. I nodded for her to continue. I would love to be your mate Carlisle. I would have loved for you to have been my first and only. I am sorry that I could not conserve myself for you. I truly love you.

I pulled her into a hug, whispering into her ear, "I don't care about that love. Like I have told you I wish I could have protected you but I can now and I will always. And the reason that my purrs have as Emmett put it built ups is because I am three hundred years old Bella. I have been alone for a long time."

She yawned loudly. I chuckled and removed the hot water bottle and shot a look at Emmett before he could comment. The kids didn't know she had been assaulted.

"Sleep Angel, I will be here when you awake." I whispered into her ear.

Then looking at Edward I thought: "Please find an animal to drain and bring me a thermoses or two of its blood. I can't leave her." He nodded and left with the others.

I knew we would have to explain to them what happened to my Angel but I knew that would have to be done in the privacy of our home. The boys and Rosalie will most likely lose their temper and Bella will need to feel safe when they do. Not to mention we can't have holes in the walls at the hospital.

Edward returned a few hours later giving me the thermoses and then looking over at Bella.

"What happened to her?" he whispered, I had been blocking my mind to him.

"When she is released we will tell you kids, when you're all together." I whispered back taking a sip of the blood, quenching my thirst.

"Is it safe for you to feed with her in your arms?" he asked looking on edge.

I nodded, "I could never hurt my Angel. She is everything to me."

He smiled at me before leaving, at the door he turned to face me, "Whatever it is that happened, know that the family stands behind you and her in whatever decisions you make. I believe we have already started seeing her as the Alpha Female of our coven, like we see you as the Alpha Male." I nodded as I took another drink savoring the deer blood.

I finished one thermos leaving the other for the morning.
