Chapter 8
Victoria took a knife and jaggedly cut Edward's cheek. "You aren't a normal vampire. You bleed." A drop of blood fell onto her knife.
"Roy is going to kill you."
" I don't care, as long as I get to kill the girl first. It's hard living without a mate. You don't understand the pain I've endured."
"Why didn't you follow your mate into death then?"
"Are you trying to be smart with me?" She asked, cutting a horizontal cut over his wrist.
Edward winced.
"I want the Cullen boy to share in the same pain as me!"
"You are such a bitch! Why drag my mate and me into this?"
"I knew you were a different breed of vampire. Amestrian vampires, a rare breed, normally found in Germany, correct?"
"Yes, but that doesn't answer my question."
"Right. Well, I wanted someone to do the dirty work for me, a hostage was needed to get Roy's cooperation."
"What a poor excuse of a vampire." Edward smirked, looking up with her with condescending eyes.
Victoria turned as red as her hair from rage and slapped Edward across the face.

Roy tracked Edward's scent to an old warehouse. He entered with Bella and saw his mate, bloody and with Victoria holding a stake to his heart.
"R-Roy…" Edward coughed; he was dangerously dehydrated from all the blood loss. He was covered in blood from all the cuts he received. He needed blood quickly.
"Just in time, I was afraid I would have a frenzying vampire soon."
"Let him go!" Roy ordered. "I'm here. I have the girl, let my mate go."
"Roy. I want you to spill a little of Bella's blood." Victoria said.
Roy pulled Bella close and bit into her arm, using his sharp fangs.
Blood pooled at the two puncture wounds.
Edward's eyes turned red and he screamed, He wanted the blood.
"Come now, feed your mate. And don't limit him, let him drink until he is content."
If that happened, Edward would drain Bella dry in his state. Roy pushed Bella forward, knowing the risks. Roy gave Bella's arm to Edward for him to drink.
Edward buried his fangs into Bella's arm and drank.
"Edward stop, please." Bella begged.
"He can't hear you." Roy whispered to her. "A frenzying vampire is in survival mode until his body returns to its stable conditions."
"Please! No!" Bella cried.
"Relax Bella, Edward won't kill you."
"Wh…?"
Victoria screamed as a stake pierced her heart.
Roy covered Bella's eyes and pulled her away from Edward as a blonde woman attacked the vampire and ripped her head off
"Roy, help me start a fire, then take care of the two." The woman ordered.
Roy left Bella and collected wood from around the warehouse. "So, you did get my call. It's been a while."
"Quiet, I'm working." She said, dismembering the corpse.
Roy started a fire and she threw the pieces in. Roy bandaged Bella's arm with first aid wrap he found in the office. He freed a sleeping Edward from his bonds and bandaged his sever wounds. As Victoria burned, Roy kissed Edward's forehead. "Wake up, Love."
Edward's golden eyes opened.
"Hey beautiful."
"Roy…" He whispered.
"Everything is fine Edward. I am going to get you home and get you some blood."
"Roy, take Edward home. I will get the human girl to where she belongs." The woman said.
"Thank you Riza. Bella," Roy said looking at Bella. "Please tell the Cullens that we are sorry, and we will leave as soon as we can."
Before Bella could say anything the two were gone.
