Chapter 9

Bella woke Connor early the next morning. "Come on sleepy head, let's get ready, we'll grab breakfast and go to the park." she said giving his rosy wee cheek a kiss.

She was excited about meeting Jaspers' family, the same family that saved him from the horrors of the vampire wars.

"Awright mummy, give me a wee chance, I'll be doon in a minute." Connor said tiredly walking to the bathroom.

"You want some toast and cereal darlin?" she shouted up the stairs.

"Yeh mummy, that'll be braw!" Connor shouted down.

Ten minutes later they were seated at the table. "Where's granda Charlie?" Connor asked, grabbing a glass of orange juice.

"He's at the Rez in La Push, he went fishing with his friends then they all decide to have a bonfire." Bella said, placing his bowl with cereal and toast beside him.

There was a loud knock at the door, "I'll get it!" Connor shouted, getting off his chair and running to the door. Bella turned off the gas under the frying pan. 'Who the hell would be chapping the door at this early hour?' Bella thought, annoyed.

"MUMMY, there's a young laddie and wee lassie here ta see you!" Connor shouted from the door.

"Stay where ye are, and yer no invited in." he sneered as he closed the door.

"Connor who are you talking to?" Bella seemed surprised at the venom in his voice.

"A dinna ken, but I'm phoning Granda Kendrix, I dinna like the look of them." Connor said running up the stairs to get his mummy's cell phone.

Bella opened the door, startled at the two people she saw standing there.

"Bella love, it's been too long!" Edwards sickly sweet voice said.

"Hi Bella, I missed my best friend!" Alice's chirpy voice seems to grate straight through her brain.

Bella closed the door in their faces. "Are you calling Granda Kendrix?" Bella shouted up to Connor.

"He's coming the noo mummy, so is Jasper an' his brother and sister." Connor shouted back.

"Ok Connor, thanks darling."

Opening the door again. "Hello Edward, Alice." she nodded. "Please don't come any closer".

"Please love, could I have a word in private?" Edward smiled.

"Say what you want to say, and then you can both leave!" Bella said crossing her arms.

"Bella love, I've missed you so much. Can you ever forgive me?" Edward said stepping forward.

"STOP!" Bella shouted, her hands shooting out to stop him.

"Bella, can you ever forgive me love, I lied when I left you, I do love you. I only did it to keep you safe. Do you think we could try again?" he stared hopefully into her eyes.

"Are you mental?... You come here to my home; I haven't seen you in ten years. You're a young immature teenage boy, I'm a twenty eight year old widow with a four year old son. In what reality would you even think that I would be interested in a boy?... I'm so glad you and your family left Forks ten years ago, it's in the past now and I want to keep it there….. I've had a wonderful life, I had an amazing husband, a real man whom I loved with all my heart as he loved me. If and when I want to move on, it won't be with a boy Edward, it will be with a real man. Please go find someone that'll love you for you, but you need to leave me alone" Bella said calmly.

"And you." she pointed to Alice. "You were never my friend, friends don't treat you like a dress up doll. They don't leave without saying goodbye. I don't need either of you in my life. I have good friends and a wonderful family. I think you both really need to leave before my Grandfather gets here!" she said crossing her arms again, staring down at Alice.

"But the entire family miss you Bella, Carlisle and Esme love you, you're like a daughter to them." Alice whined.

"I have a family I don't need yours." Bella laughed. Just then Connor ran to the front door "Granda Kendrix would like a wee word way the pixie." he said handing over the phone to Alice.

"Hello?" Alice said as Connor wrapped his arms around his mummy's legs. "Mummy a dinna like them, they're kinda strange for a wee laddie and lassie." Connor whispered to Bella.

"Don't worry son, Granda Kendrix will be here in a minute and you know how he gets if someone upsets you or me."

Connors green eyes suddenly went all wide. "He'll go aw superman on them." He smiled. He really loved his granda.

"Alice, what's wrong?" Edward said as he saw Alice's vision. He frowned as the horrific images bombarded his mind, of him and Alice being destroyed. "We need to leave Edward, now!" Alice said, fear shining in her eyes.

"We really need to go now! Edward." she said, reaching for his hand.

"Too late!" Connor sung at the top of his voice.

Edward growled at him. "Who the feck do you think your growling at?... Look at my son again and I will end you." Bella said ominously quiet.

Suddenly Bella heard a low swishing sound, as Edwards head rolled across the grass. At that very same moment Jasper lifted Connor into his arms and ran with him upstairs to his room. "You didn't see anything, did you son?" Jasper whispered in his ear. "Na Jasper, I did'na see nothing but ma mummy's legs, is everything awright Jasper?"

"Yes son." He looked up as Charlotte came through the doorway. "Connor, this is Charlotte, my sister. Could you show her some of your toys and books please?" They all heard growling coming from below the open window. "Here Charlotte, come see ma new minion and angry birds toys." Connor said, taking her hand.

"See ya soon Jasper." Connor said waving at him.

Kendrix McLeod of the clan McLeod stood with his claymore sword dripping venom, looking very pissed. "Aw'right lassie, ye want ta tell me why yer here annoying ma granddaughter and grandson?" he questioned Alice.

"Edward!" she sobbed.

"Enough of the bull, he's no been destroyed yet. Why are ye here?" Kendrix growled.

"We wanted to see Bella again. We didn't mean any harm, we missed her."

"Yer lying lass, ye didny want ta lie ta me." he spoke quietly.

"Can you put my brother back together please?" Alice begged.

"No lass. Tell me or I send ye and the big lassie back tay you parents in pieces." Kendrix snarled.

"Alright, alright, I found out Bella was back in the States and talked Edward into seeing his mate again!"

"Wrong answer!" Kendrix sneered "You know he's no Bella's mate. Day ye take me for a fool lass, See how yae get on way nay gift."

"What have you done!" Alice screeched, searching for her gift, but it was gone.

"A've taken away yer gift lassie, nay mair ruining people's lives for you. Yer a nasty wee piece a work. A told ye not ta lie tay me. Dae ye like the consequences?"

"No!" she cried.

"Good, ye need ta know who yer messin way." Kendrix said talking Alice's cell phone from her jacket pocket.

He hit number 1and dialled the speed dial, putting the cell on speaker phone. "Hello, is that Carlisle Cullen?"

"Yes, who's calling ? Why are you using my daughter Alice's cell?"

"A'll be asking the questions Doctor, I have your son and daughter here, they've been upsetting my family. Were you and yer coven warned not to come to Washington, by Jasper Whitlock?"

"No, we were told not to come to Port Angeles." Carlisle mumbled.

"Semantics Doctor Cullen. My name is Kendrix McLeod of the Clan McLeod from Scotland. This is my warning to you - keep your family away from Bella and Connor McCleod or I will destroy your coven, including yer beautiful wife Esme. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes." Carlisle mumbled.

"Now, Jaspers here, and I'm not sure if you will see your bairns again."

"Hi Carlisle, Jasper here. Didn't I tell you to keep your coven away from here?" Jasper growled.

"You said Port Angeles Jasper, you didn't mention Forks!"

"I'm sorry Carlisle; do you wish to see your children again?" Jasper was sick of this shit.

"Please Jasper, I'm begging you…. Please don't destroy my children."

"Alright Carlisle." Jasper said wrapping his arm around Bella.

"You will keep your family away from my mate."

"Yes, …. yes anything. Congratulations Jasper….. who's your mate?"

"Bella McCleod you might remember her as Bella Swan."

"Hello Carlisle, are you still there?"

"Yes…look Jasper I didn't know that Bella was your mate. Alice said you were mates and that Edward was Bella's mate…. I know now that's not possible as he would never have been able to leave her...I am sorry. Good luck Jasper."

"That's the only reason you and your Coven will not be destroyed. Keep them away from Washington." Jasper said, then hung up the phone.

"Well… what do we have here?" Jasper growled looking down at Alice. "Hi Jazz." she mumbled.

"My name is Jasper, not Jazz. You will not call me that again!" Jasper growled, he felt lust coming from Bella he turned his head and gave her a wink.

"Did you know that Bella and I were Mates, Alice?" Jasper said as Kendrix and Peter started tossing Edwards head about.

"Come on guys, I can't concentrate with you two playing football with anal boy's head!" Jasper shouted.

"An it's real football not American football!" Kendrix laughed tossing the head to Peter.

"You mean soccer?" Peter said tossing the head back to Kendrix.

"Its fitbaw where a come fae laddie. And as ma country's aulder than yours, its fitbaw!" he said laughing as he tossed Edwards head into the air.

Peter pouted. "Alright you win old yin, throw dickwad over here."

"Watch yer language around ma family Peter." Kendrix stopped and stared at him intensely.

"Yes sir! Sorry Bella." Peter said sincerely, catching Edwards' head.

"I asked you a question Alice?" Jasper growled.

"I didn't really know, it wasn't clear….. I thought she was Edwards' mate." Alice whined.

"You're lying!" Jasper grabbed her by the neck.

"I should destroy you, for keeping me from my Mate. The only reason I'm letting you return to Carlisle and Esme is that Bella had a good life away from here. She has a beautiful, funny son and a brilliant family…. If you come near my family again I will not be as lenient." he said, pushing her away from the house. "Take your brother and get the hell away from me and mine. This area and the whole of Washington is off limits."

Alice grabbed Edwards body; walking over to Kendrix she kept her eyes down submissively. "May I have my brothers head back?"

"Aye lassie, here he is." Kendrix tossed the head to her.

"Can you return my gift please?" she begged.

"Nay lassie, you may not have yer gift back. If you dinnae bother my family, I'll give ye it back in ten years. The same length of time ye kept two mates separated." Kendrix said, walking over to Bella and Jasper.

Alice gasped. "You can't!" she cried.

"A can, and a will. Ye will get yer gift returned in ten years an no a minute before. Now take yer brother and go. Dinnae let me see you again lassie, or I will be the last thing ye ever see." he snarled, at the now shaking Alice.

Picking up Edwards body and head, she ran at vampire speed away into the forest.

Jasper grabbed Bella around the waste and kissed her tenderly. As she started to kiss him back she heard a throat clear. "Pit ma granddaughter down, Jasper."

Pulling her close but stopping the kiss, he turned to Kendrix with a smirk.

"A'll wipe that smirk aff yer face laddie if a have ta witness that again. Keep it in private, till a get used ta the idea." He said with a grin.

"I don't think that's the last I'll see of them." Bella said, concerned.

"We'll if they did'na listen ta me then it'll be their loss and I will be destroying their coven." Kendrix said, going in the house. He came back down with Connor in his arms. "Ye did brilliant Connor. A true wee warrior." Kendrix said, tickling Connor's tummy.

"Auk granda, its tickly!" he wiggled about. " A didnay like the look o' them, they looked like trouble."

"How right you were baby, I'm so proud of my big boy!" Bella said kissing his wee chubby pink cheek. "A am a big laddie." he said with a huge grin.

"Bella, Connor I'd like you to meet Peter and Charlotte Whitlock, my family"

"Pleased to meet you." Bella said with a small wave.

Charlotte ran over to give her a hug. "Oh sugar, I'm so happy to meet you, and Connor's such a darlin'." Charlotte said stepping back.

"Charlotte was playin' wif me. She's beautiful." Connor blushed.

"Now little man, that's my wife you're taking about….. And you're right, she is beautiful!" Peter pulled Charlotte close to him, giving her a kiss.

"Yuck, a dinnae like kissin. Its boggin' !" Connor snorted.

Kendrix burst out laughing. "Yer right son, it is boggin' !"

"Hoy, you two, it's not disgusting. Shut up!" Bella laughed at the confused looks Peter and Charlotte gave her.

"Come on, let's get breakfast before anything else happens." she said, hugging her son.

"Mummy there's big dugs in the trees!"

"What? Oh you have got to be kidding me!" Bella said.

"Go into the house with Peter and Charlotte Connor, get your breakfast." she said, sending him inside.

Jasper saw the wolves in the trees. "Jacob Black, come out now! And make sure you're dressed !" Bella shouted, as Jacob ran out of the forest with shorts on. Jasper growled. "Please Jasper, Jacob's family." Bella placed her hand on his chest. She sent him comfort and calm.

"Hi Bella, Kendrix." Jacob said with a nod.

"What happened? We smelled the Cullens and I got worried about you and Connor. I'm glad your here Kendrix." he said whilst staring at Jasper suspiciously.

"Aye Jacob. Its good ta see ye too. We sent the two Cullens packing. But you an' the pack can keep a wee look out in case they come back. Bella and Connor will be movin' in way me ta Port Angeles. Yer mare than welcome ta come visit. Bring yer dad and the pack." He patted Jacob on the back.

Jasper felt respect coming from Jacob which was directed at Kendrix, which seemed strange.

"How?" Jasper mumbled confused.

"Ach, dinnae worry Jasper. The Pack is under McLeod protection . After yon wee Pixie and the laddie left her, a red headed vampire had hunted her; the pack kept her safe."

"Victoria!" Jasper hissed. "I killed her, two years after the family left."

"You killed her?" Bella said confused.

"Yes darlin', I stayed behind. I knew she would try to hurt you and I couldn't let that happen. I had to protect you. You had already left the States…I killed Laurent not long after you'd left, the day he came to Forks looking for you he told me that Victoria had been building a new born army in Seattle. I think the Pack took quite a few of the new borns out. But I killed Victoria, exactly two years after the Cullens abandoned you."

She ran to him and gave him a hug. Love and adoration swirled around him.

"See laddie, she was always yer Mate."

"Mate." Jacob growled.

"Wheeshed Jacob, yer family son but didna growl at Jasper, he helped you defeat the red headed witch. Brothers in arms laddie, dinnae forget it." Kendrix said looking directly at Jacob.

Jacob had his head down. "Enough laddie, yer ain mate will be here shortly. Chin up, yer a Warrior." Kendrix said patting Jacobs back.

"Alright then, the bairns fed. Bella you need ta get some breakfast. Jacob, you and the pack look after ma granddaughter and grandson. We... " he said, indicating the other vampires, "... need ta get the renovations done on ma hoose."

"You think the wolves can look after Bella and Connor?" Peter asked, confused.

"Of course laddie. A trust them, they're great warriors, hearts of gold they have. I think they'll dae just fine."

"Let's go, two mair walls ta knock down!" Kendrix shouted.

Jasper gave Bella a loving soft kiss. "I'll see you later darlin'." Running into the house he picked up Connor, giving him a hug. "Look after your mummy, son."

"Nay bother Jasper. See ya tonight?" he waved as Jasper put him down and walked out of the house.
