a/n Twilight belongs to Stephanie Meyer and I am just fantasizing about her characters.
The next Chapter will be lighthearted but this one deals solely with her gift.
Chapter 10
Carlisle's POV
For the next couple of days, Esme wouldn't let Bethany out of her sight after we discovered her gift. I was just as worried as she was being, but I also had a really bad feeling. I was not too worried about the Volturi at this point in time, more I was worried about the way her gift worked and how it could be abused.
At odd times during the weeks that followed, I would find myself pondering situations. What if the Volturi came for us again? Bella's shield would be known about and they would try to take her out first. However, Bethany could take over Aro's mind, she could tell his guard to back off, she could possibly find a way to erase his memory of our coven altogether. If she is as powerful as I suspect. Gifts usually get stronger over time.
The problem is that we have all the time in the world. What if she uses it for ill? How to even prevent it, if she can get into my mind and erase what memories I have of those deeds?
Yet, to leave her untrained is just as dangerous. We don't know anything about her gift. I am sure there has never been a Vampire with a gift like hers before. There are just so many questions about her gift. How long can she be out of her body? How far can she go from her body? How many people can she control at once? We have to know, we have to work with her gift or we are all in danger.
Bella's POV
It took a couple of days for me to recover from the shock of discovering Bethany's gift. We all went around on autopilot, but there was something nagging at me. Some memory from my human days that I know is important.
I was making Renesmee's lunch, when the memory hit me and it was so clear to me. I don't know why I hadn't realized it right away. I sat Renesmee's sandwich on the table and called her to eat. Then I pulled out my Cell phone.
"Seth, Hi this is Bella."
"Hey Bella, what's up? Is Bethany OK? I was going to come see her in a little while, but if she needs me I'll be there right away?"
It really was sweet how much Seth likes Bethany. It was so funny the day Emmett figured out that their names matched Seth & Beth, so now he calls them "Sethany". I waited for Seth's questions to stop before making my request. "Seth, this is about Bethany, but don't worry she is OK. I just wanted to ask if it was possible that you could bring Old Quil and Billy over to our house this afternoon. Everyone should be here then and I have some ideas about Bethany's gift?"
"Bella, I don't know what they have planned for today, but I can ask? Since Billy, and Quil are 2/3's of the Council of Elders, did you want me to ask my Mom too?"
"Actually Seth, you're right. Sue should be here too. You can let Jake and Sam know that I requested a meeting if you want, but make sure that they know that it isn't a formal meeting. I just really need to speak to them and since we can't go onto the Reservation to do it. The Reservation will have to come to us."
We both laughed at that.
"Well then Bella, tell Bethany that I will be there with whoever decides to come this afternoon. In the meantime, I guess I am going to have to run all over the Res today in human form."
"Seth, you still haven't phased? It's been days. How have you gotten out of running patrols?"
"I've been bribing others to take my place on patrol. They think I am doing it to get more time with Bethany. I wish. We never get any time together. Actually, I was going to talk to Edward about that. Maybe he and I can talk after the meeting?"
"Seth, Edward is very fond of you, and he would be happy to talk to you and help in any way he can. You know that?"
"Sure Sure Bella, I feel the same way. It is just sometimes, I feel that he sees me as a kid still. I've killed Vampires, and defended my home. If that doesn't make you grow up, then nothing does."
"Seth, he is over 100 years old, he sometimes thinks of me as a child too. So don't let it get you down. I will see you later this afternoon."
"OK thanks Bella"
"And who was that love?" as a pair of arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me close?
"That was Seth. And I am calling a family meeting this afternoon, once Seth brings the La Push Elder Council here." and I leaned to the side so I could look over my shoulder at my Greek God of a husband.
"So I guess that you have something to say?" and he gave me my favorite crooked smile and leaned down to peck me on the lips.
"I think that I have a lot to say and you shall be pleasantly surprised." I knew that I was being smug, but I couldn't help it. One of my fading human memories was going to aid the whole family today.
Bethany's POV
"Alice have you had any visions about this meeting that we are going to have?" I asked.
Alice was somewhere in the depths of the huge thing that she called a closet. I know she was trying to cheer me up by trying to help me look nice for Seth's visit, but I was still feeling so all over the place. My emotions were so crazy that Jasper had to leave shortly after Alice dragged me into her room.
"No Silly, you know that I can't see anything once the Wolves are involved and that I can only see around you and Nessie." Then her Pixie looking head popped around the corner "Drat, they are here. Here put these on. I was hoping that I would have time to do your hair and makeup before they got here. Now we don't have time cause they will be here in 5 minutes."
Alice mad was usually a funny sight to me, but now I was too nervous to find much amusement in anything. I quickly changed out of the dark brown ruffled tank top and khaki shorts that I had been wearing and picked up the Forest Green Sun Dress that she had handed me. I have to admit, that I like the dress.
Alice and I were able to share some of our clothes, since I was short like her. The biggest problem with sharing with Alice was while she was petite, she was also slimly athletic. I, on the other hand, was fairly curvy except one place. I had Double DD's cup size and then my figure cinched in at the ribs and then flared out for the hips. It is my but that I hate. It is flat, flat, flat. I try to make sure that Seth never sees me from behind. I got chewed out, royally, by Alice when she saw me tie a sweatshirt around my waist one day. I was just trying to hide my lack of but. She was furious since I had apparently committed a horrendous fashion faux pas? The Horror.
Alice and I walked down the stairs together. "Where are we having this meeting?" Since we normally had family meetings around the dining room table and with all the wolves that accompanied our guests being here; the dining room table would not be an option. We were going to have to find another place to have this meeting.
"Bella said that we should do it on the picnic tables in the back. I am so glad we decided to keep them up for the summer. I just know that they are going to come in handy for all kinds of fun things." Alice gushed.
I could already see the wheels turning in her pixie head. We all think that Alice looks like a fairy come to life. I like to joke that she is the fairy and I am the pumpkin. Emmett got in big trouble from Rose when he said that I wasn't the pumpkin but I was the Plumpkin. Ouch! I think she is still withholding sex from him. Poor guy.
I was waiting at the bottom step when I saw him… Pops. I ran at Vampire speed to go hug him and just as fast 4 huge wolves exploded into being right then and there. Three of them surrounding me and growling; then a big Sandy Wolf jumped in front of me and growled at the other wolves. I knew who it was right away. It was Seth, defending me against his own pack brothers. While the other wolves were backing down and not charging him as long as I didn't move. Seth wasn't just standing in their way, he was ready to take them all on. He was so mad, I could see the hackles rising on his back as growled and continually put his body between them and me.
I knew I had to diffuse the situation, Seth would never forgive himself if he hurt one of his brothers. I took my eyes off the other 3 wolves and tried to get Seth's attention. "Seth, Seth" I pleaded, but he wouldn't look at me. "Seth I am OK, they didn't hurt me. It is OK Seth, really. Please". I felt my heart breaking for him. I wanted to reach out and touch his fur, to rub his back, and try to get him calmed down.
Jasper and Edward had slowly made their way up behind me. "He is very mad darlin, you need to keep helping him calm down. I am sending him peace and relaxation but you need to help me?"
I turned to Edward "Can you ask Jake to give him an Alpha command to calm down?"
"Jake already did, Seth shouldn't even be able to stand up right now. But your talking to him did help, so keep talking him down" Edward said softly for mine and Jasper's ears alone.
"Seth I am going to touch your back, I've always wanted to feel your fur. It is so soft" I turned to Edward and he gave me a slight nod to encourage me. I inched closer to Seth's side and he turned, placing his whole flank open to the others so that his body was between mine and the other wolves. I bent over to whisper in his ear alone "Seth it is OK, they won't attack me anymore. They know now that I belong to you. I am going to walk away from them and I want you to come with me into the house. Please I need you to hold me as I'm scared. Maybe the boys will stay outside with the others, and you can sneak in some kissing." Seth whined at that and I knew that it was working and I had gained his attention. I turned around and started to walk to the house, the Sandy Wolf followed but kept his eyes on the other three until I was in the door.
Jasper whispered in my ear as I passed him in the yard "Bethany Lane Cullen, you do not fight fair sugar. I can't wait to see what kind of fighter you will turn into. You have 5 minutes, before Esme will break it up."
Once in the house, I waited for Seth to enter the Living room. I smiled at him, "Seth, I am going to go in the bathroom and put in some contacts to hide my red eye, looks like Esme set out some of your clothes for you. Jasper says that we will only have 5 minutes so hurry." I smiled again and ran into the bathroom under the stairs so that I could find the contacts to change my eyes from Red to Purple-ish.
I left the bathroom and there he was, in the living room, on the white couch. He was no longer a Sandy Wolf; but my very own Knight in Shining Armor. I ran into the room and threw myself into his arms. He wrapped his long muscled arms around me and squeezed really tight. I didn't mind cause I knew that it was a way of showing me how he felt and I didn't need to breath anyways. I'm sturdy and that is a good thing to be when dating a Werewolf.
I was still on his lap, but I pulled out of his embrace to talk to him "Seth why were you so mad?" I knew I was wasting precious make-out time but I needed to know?
"Bethy When I saw you running towards your Grandfather and the other guys reacting… They thought you were a crazed Newborn and they were going to rip you to pieces. I phased faster than I have ever done before and still I was almost too late. I had to protect you. I didn't want to hurt them, well not much. But if they had harmed you in anyway I would have gone berserk. Then Jake tried to go all Alpha on me, but it was like I could hear him, but it was far away and I could ignore him if I wanted. I need to hold you for a few minutes so that I can be sure that you are OK?"
I thought about what he had said and I knew that we were both going to be up against the firing squad for this one. Him for disobeying an Alpha command and me for being a Newborn and rushing a pack of young Werewolves. I really wished he would hurry up and start kissing me. "You know that you are wasting time Clearwater?"
I had never called him by his last name before and I think he liked it cause he replied "Is that right Cullen? Just what should I be doing with all this time?" Seth challenged.
He wanted to challenge me? Oh boy was he in trouble. I looked him right in the eyes and leaned forward until our faces were inches apart and we could feel each other's exhalations. Then I stuck out my tongue and very deliberately licked his bottom lip. I have been wanting to do that ever since I saw Emmett do it to Rose. She liked it a lot, so I have been daydreaming about doing it to Seth. Reality was much better than the dream and I think he liked it too, cause he groaned. It was sexy. Now I was emboldened, so I broke eye contact and nibbled on his chin, then licked it too. His skin tasted so good.
His heart was beating really fast and every time I touched him it would go faster. It sounded delicious, but I was in control of my bloodlust. I wanted his body too much to ever drain it. I nibbled along his jaw line and his adam's apple bobbed as he gulped. When I reach his left ear, I knew I had hit the jackpot. I took the lobe of his ear into my mouth and sucked on it. I flicked it back and forth with my tongue while holding onto it with my lips. I had to be very careful to not involve my teeth. Even when I nibbled on him, I kept my lips between him and my teeth.
Seth took back control then, pulling me off his ear, he lifted me so that I was no longer across his lap but was now straddling it. He grabbed my hips and pulled me in close so that you couldn't fit a piece of paper between our bodies. Our parts were pressed tight against each other and then his lips grabbed mine possessively. I opened my mouth for him and touched his tongue with my own. He then sucked my tongue into his mouth and began wrapping his tongue around mine, alternating biting and sucking on it. When he had to stop to get his breath, he decided for some payback.
He grabbed my hips and grinded himself against me. Then he nibbled and open mouth kissed his way over to my ear. There he proceeded to lick and suck until I was squealing. My body was jello and if he let go I would have fallen from his lap to the floor. I had my head thrown to give him access to my sensitive neck. I was on fire, and contemplating how fast it would take me to rip those shorts from his body.
That was when Seth put the brakes on. He kissed me really hard on the lips one last time and then lifted me off of him. Then he scooted to the other end of the couch and put a pillow between us. I was struggling to catch my breath or I swear that I would have been giggling "Are you serious? Seth do you really think that a pillow would save you if I decided to have my way with you?"
"You have already had your way with me. Damn Bethy you are hot." I could see the desire in his eyes and it made me feel beautiful and sexy.
"I'm not the one running a temperature of 108 f ?" he groaned as he watched me bite my lip.
"I don't know what happened today. I saw you in danger and I just lost it. I had you in my arms and I swear all I wanted was to hold you so I could feel that you are OK; then it liked snowballed out of control. I promised your family that I would take it slow and be a gentleman. Then I felt your tongue on me and all my brains went out the window."
I got up off the couch, now I was mad. "Oh no you don't Seth Clearwater. What the hell is your last name anyways? Doesn't matter right now, anyways. The point is…you did not do anything to me that I didn't want you to do. And I did not do anything to you that I didn't want to do at least a thousand times a day, since we met. We both were on the couch, just like we were both being threatened out there. Seth we are in this together. Don't you see? Whatever we do together is alright with me, as long as we are together. I really like you Seth and I am going to admit it, you are my first kiss. And if you behave yourself, someday I would like you to be my first other things. Don't get me wrong, I love it when you are all take charge and protective. It makes me feel safe and cared for, just don't forget me in your need to do what is right. Besides, with all of their super hearing, there is no way they will allow you to get to second base. Especially since we haven't even gone on that First Date that you promised me. Wait a minute, you haven't even asked me yet. You've asked everyone but me? "
"Bethy, well with your family's rules…it is going to take me some time to figure out how to make it special and keep your family happy too. Don't worry, I'm working on it."
Seth stood up and held out his hand to me. "Seth if we go outside holding hands, that is going to tell everyone out there that we are like boyfriend and girlfriend. Do you really want to do that? I don't want to make things harder for you, Leah already calls you names and I know that they hurt you?"
Seth used the moment to grab my hand and pull me up against him. He leaned over and rested his head on top of mine, wrapping his long arms around me. This time it wasn't about possession, fear, or desire. This time he was holding me out of love. I could feel it. It was tentative and weak, but it was there. I didn't even know how I know what he was feeling? I wasn't an empath like Jasper?
"Bethy," he said against my hair, "I just jumped in between you and three of my brothers. I faced them all down to protect you. Do you really think a little handholding is going to give them the wrong idea?"
He had a point there. "OK but you have to let go of me while I hug my Grandfather. That is who I was running for when I was stopped. I wanted to hug my Grandfather, I didn't want to eat him. Some people overreact all the time, not all Newborns are crazed and out of control. "
"Until you and Bella, they were. The two of you are amazing," he smiled his beautiful smile and I couldn't help smiling back at him as we walked outside.
Emmett walked up to Seth "You better not have been sucking face with my newest little sister Puppy, Carlisle I think we need to change the rules and not let her date until she is 21." Everyone's eyes were on us and I was getting very embarrassed thinking about how much could have been heard while we were in the living room.
"Actually Emmett, I was just thinking that maybe we should send you back to Charlie's with Emmett so he can get his things and move into Bethany's room with her. Since he has assigned himself the role of her protector." Emmett's jaw dropped to the floor from that one and everyone laughed. Emmett finally got that Carlisle was joshing him.
Rosalie got to him first, she hit him upside the head and told him to stop acting like a child. I don't think Emmett will be embarrassing me anymore this afternoon.
Carlisle walked up to Seth and put out his hand for Seth to shake, then he leaned in close to whisper for Seth's ears only (so I listened anyways? I was curious) "I want to thank you Seth, I know that she has only been with us a short time but we already love her. If we had lost her today, we would all be devastated. I swear if I had had a heart, then I would have had a heart attack today. When I saw her innocently running to greet her Grandfather and realized that the other 3 thought her a crazed Newborn, that they needed to protect Old Quil from her. We didn't realize the danger until too late, and we were too far away to stop her.
Anything you need…Oh and the rules still apply, but I will consider relaxing them depending on the occasion."
Then Bella was asking for everyone's attention.
Bella's POV
Everyone was looking at me and I felt a bit of that familiar stage fright coming back until I was hit with a wave of relaxation. I thanked Jasper.
"The reason I have asked all of you here is very simple. Recently Bethany accidentally discovered that she had an extra ability or what we call Vampiric gift. I have asked you here to help her with it." Everyone was looking at the Elders and the Pack and then back at me like I am crazy.
Billy spoke up "Bella, I don't see how we could help her with a Vampiric Gift."
"Normally I would agree with you Billy. Bethany's gift is so unusual that we have no idea how to help her with it. Nor do we have any ideas of the dangers associated with it. You are our only hope. You see, I figured it out this morning. Bethany is half Quileute. This isn't a Vampiric gift, it is a Quileute Gift." I was smiling cause I was so proud of myself for figuring it out, but everyone was still looking at me like I was crazy.
"I guess I better explain better. Ok when I was a human, I attended a Bonfire where you told stories about your people. I thought they were legends but soon was proved wrong. Your people used to go into a trance and their spirits would fly out of their bodies and travel to find out information and things like that. Then one of your chiefs was on a spirit walk and an evil man basically spirit walked out of his dying body and inhabited the body of the chief. Leaving the chief without a body, right?" Carlisle was the first to catch on, but soon the rest of the family reacted with gasps and awe.
"Yes Bella, that is a summary of the beginning legends? But what does that have to do with now?" Billy inquired.
"Well Billy, last week Seth found Bethany's body practically comatose and when Jasper and Edward listened in, there was nobody home. Yet they both could distantly hear her. We tried to call her back but she accidentally shared Emmett's body for a few moments, before we were finally able to get her into her own body. So you see, we don't know how to help her with this gift. Hopefully some of your legends can show us the way."
Bethany's Grandfather, the oldest living Quileute spoke up "It was forbidden, our people have forgotten even the way it can be done. You are right that it is indeed a gift from her Quileute heritage but I am afraid that we may have no more knowledge to give you."
Carlisle then spoke up "Bella you are truly a most insightful Vampire. We had no clue, as we have only known your people as shape shifters. I will have to run the tests on Bethany's venom but I am almost sure that the Vampire transformation must have awaken the dormant Quileute Shapeshifter gene. Before we turned her, I had run her blood to see if she possessed the Shapeshifter I found that she had the dormant gene, I informed both Bethany and Mr Ateara that there was a possibility that my venom may be poisonous to her and instead of transforming into a Vampire, she could possibly die. What I never considered was that the transformation might wake up the dormant gene. Obviously she cannot take the form of her natural enemy, so it must have brought forward the original gift that started this whole legend. Is it possible that we could get a firsthand hearing of these legends that Bella has mentioned? They could be extremely important."
"Of course, if it will help my Bethany, than I would be delighted." Bethany's Grandfather replied. Billy agreed to tell his part, and Sue took one look at the besotted look on Seth's face and gave in with grace. I could tell that she was really apprehensive about having Seth so close to a Newborn Vampire, but he looked so happy that she couldn't bare to hurt him.
That is when Edward spoke up "No Sam, you will not be ambushing Bethany anytime in the future, Not ever." He didn't yell, but his voice cut through all the other conversations, was cold as ice, and sounded just as deadly.
Seth hearing Edwards words grabbed Bethany and pulled her behind him, he hadn't phased but his whole body was shaking and trembling with it.
Then Sam opened his mouth "It is an abomination. A Vampire that can leave their body and travel anywhere without fear of recognition. There is nothing private, cause even if you meet in secret she can attend. If you tell no one, but keep it in your head. She can join you there, hang out in your brain. Take over your body, and use your own hands to murder your family and make you rot in jail for it. Who can stop herm who could even really know. How do we know that it is you saying what you have said? We don't, for she would be able to be you and no one could tell. She has to die, like she should have months ago."
Everyone was frozen in place listening and picturing the horrors that Sam had painted in our minds. Everyone that is, except Bethany. Her tiny little frame slipped under Seth's arm and walked up to Sam. She stood in front of his massive body, a Chihuahua confronting a Rottweiler. "You're right Sam, but who is going to comfort you when I am dead, and then your wife and son are killed three years from now on August 20th. Caius of the Volturi is going to decide to rid the United States of its dog infestation. You will call on the Cullens and their friends to help save your people. The Cullens will come because Carlisle is compassionate and it is not your people's fault that you are short sighted. While you are all busy fighting the Volturi guard and losing by the way, because they learn from their mistakes and brought overwhelming numbers. Yes while you are busy, their newest gifted Vampire will put to sleep the entire Reservation. Then go from home to home feeding. Aro is quite fond of him, and will call him the Sandman. Those that the Sandman doesn't drain will be placed into large cargo containers and flown to Volterra for experimentation and to stock the larder. The few of you who survive, will include you Sam. Aro made sure he drained Emily and your son himself. You will commit suicide, but before you do, you will wish that you had never killed me. Cause you see, two years from now, when Caius starts to think about this little plan of his; Alice will come to me, and together the Cullens and I will use my gift to change the future I just told you."
Bethany then turned to look at Alice "Alice am I right?"
Alice's face was so shocked that it was almost comical "Bethany I just got the vision when I heard Sam's tirade, how did you know?"
Bethany looked perplexed for a moment, then turned to Edward "No Edward, I hadn't even noticed the extra noise, until I tried.." her head snapped around and she stared at Alice again. "Please Alice, tell me it isn't true, tell me it was a random thought and not a true vision?" she was begging her. Alice and Edward both seemed to be overcome.
Finally Seth shaking and vibrating yelled "Will someone please tell me what is going on?" he grabbed Bethany's upper arms, then let them go to quickly catch her as her legs gave out on her.
Edward finally said "Because Bethany can inhabit our bodies, she can also access our gifts. The vision Alice had was of me explaining to someone else, but the vision was blurry. I told them that as long as she has blended her mind with yoursonce, then she can access your gift the same as she can make you lift your arm and wave. Since Bethany has been experiencing our minds without realizing it for the last couple of months, she was able to access Alice's gift. She can probably use all our gifts."
"Her brain has shut down right now, with so many people, so much turmoil and all of these gifts that she really hasn't had a chance to learn control of them. It was just too much. She was feeling all of our feelings through Jasper's gift, then she was hearing their thoughts due to mine, she experienced Alice's visions, and then she tried to pull your shield over herself to block it all out but she couldn't hold it together long enough to get the shield all around her. So she fled her body, and this area."
"What do you mean she fled this body and this area?" Seth was upset, so I put my arms around his shoulders as held Bethany's body to his chest.
We had all kind of forgotten Sam and the gruesome pictures that Bethany painted for him of the future. He looked pale and shaky, he was trembling but not from the need to phase. I could smell the fear coming off of him.
Alice spoke to both of them "That was one possible future, she's right though. If you kill her or have her killed, you set into motion events that will destroy your people one way or the other. Seth she will be OK, if she were in danger right now Jasper would know, he'd feel her fear. Carlisle's venom should have been poison to her but somehow it wasn't poison, and she survived the transformation. I knew she was special then, normally Vampires are frozen in time. My hair was cut off in the Asylum. When I was rescued by my Vampire, he let my hair grow out, he wasn't going to change me until it had grown long so that I could have long hair like women of that time. But things happened and he had to change me, so now I am stuck with this hair length for eternity. Thank heaven it is finally in style."she giggled.
"So Bethany weighed 89 lbs from the Cancer, she was emaciated. She had no chest, and certainly no curves. The venom cures diseases and fixes what is broken. Venom doesn't make you gain 70 pounds, grow a chest and grow matching curves. That is when I knew that she would be something special and I know that there are more surprises to come. I think this is true, but it is my opinion. Yet when I say it out loud, I always feel certain. I think that she was allowed to transform, and gain access to your ancestral power, as well as being able to pick up any extra gift that she can be exposed to; because she was meant to save us all." Alice looked dead serious at this point.
Carlisle suggested that Seth take Bethany into the living room at this point and put her down on the couch. He laid her down gently and then sat on the floor by her head, leaned his head against hers and he told Carlisle that he will yell for us if there are any changes.
When Carlisle returned, he asked again to be told the Legends of their Tribe? This time Sam kept his mouth shut and allowed the story telling to begin. I had already heard it all before, but nevertheless I was still drawn into the storyline and the magic.
We were all quiet and the sun was going down when Carlisle said "It didn't help answer our questions about how to train her and how to use them, yet it did help to know what to expect. Also we will have to be very careful to stress that she never leave her body alone." He turned to Old Quil then "I'm very sorry Quil that you did not get your chance to spend some time with your Granddaughter. I know that she grieves over the fact that she cannot come to see you. She is often upset and worried about your health. I want you to know that our home is open to you, should you ever wish to come stay or even live. We would be happy to extend our hospitality to you."
Old Quil got a twinkle in his eye and smile on his lips. "I will make Lil Quil or Seth bring me for a visit tomorrow. I can already tell that she is doing very well with the blood lust. Please tell her that I am very proud of her restraint. I am also ecstatic to find out that our ancestors have blessed her, she is a true Quileute. I thank you for your offer to come live here. I would like to die in the house where I lived and loved my wife. However, if someone tries to lock me in some old folks prison, you will find me bag in hand on your doorstep. The young one is a fool. He got handed power before he was a man, and now he feels we all should respect his wisdom. Wisdom is earned, I hope he has learned something from this." Then the boys who brought him here, piled back into their car and drove home.
Edward looked sad, so I put my arm around him and leaned over for a peck on his cheek "kiss for your thoughts?" I asked.
"Will we ever have peace?" he asked, then he said "Come on love, we need to hunt. Jacob has Renesmee and he will feed her dinner and Esme will get her ready for bed. We will be back to read her her bedtime story."
I couldn't deny him, so I asked "What are we hunting tonight?"
"Eachother" he gave me a peck and then sped off.
"Ooooh my favorite prey." I ran after him.
