Chapter 10

Summary:

63 years went by since Bella last saw the Cullen's. Without their knowledge Bella became a vampire. Now she pays them a little visit, but the Cullen's don't recognize her and she doesn't say anything and introduce herself as Marie. What will happen? What will Edward do? Can Bella as Marie make Edward fall for her, or will he be faithful to his true love (Bella)?

"Shit! Werewolves!" I heard Edward curse.

I guess he heard their thoughts.

Edward started leading and we were running faster.

But out of nowhere three wolves cut our way. They were growling at us.

We backed away slowly until our backs hit something hard. I turned around for a quick second and saw that it was the same cliff that was in my vision.

It didn't pass much time till the other five wolves came.

They were slowly approaching us ready to kill us.

I won't let that happen.

I just saw Edward after so many years, and he just started to be some what friendly to me again, and I'm not going to let my plan get ruined by some stupid werewolves.

I stepped forward ready to make them feel sorry for ruing my day with Edward.

But, just as I steppeed forward, Edward got down in a protective position in front of me. A sudden feeling of happiness passed through me.

He still cares about me, even not knowing it's truly me. I knew he was feeling something about me. I knew he was sensing that there was something about me familiar. But I know that he doesn't know what that is and that he won't be finding that out soon.

But I wasn't sure if he was in a protective position because he felt like he must protect me, or was it just because he thought he was stronger than me, and felt like dealing with it alone, than letting the weak girl to fight. But he was wrong, I wasn't weak. I was much stronger than him.

But I was on guard, too. I dealt with many vampires before, but never with werewolves and I weren't sure if my powers worked on them.
There were too many, if it comes to a fight I don't believe that we will win. Maybe I could fight them until Edward's gone far enough for them not to hurt him. I couldn't stand for him to get hurt.

I looked into the eyes of the enemy, from the first to the last. There was something off about them.

Their eyes seemed too intelligent and too smart for animals. Their eyes seemed like humans.

However, a werewolf who stood beside the Alpha werewolf - I figured the way he was standing in front of the others that he is the leader - looked oddly familiar. His fur was reddish brown, he was slightly higher than the others, but his eyes betrayed him. His blurry, dark brown eyes looked too human and too familiar to me.

I tried to remember why they were so familiar.
My memories came and went; as I tried to remember when did I cross path with a werewolf.

Suddenly a memory came to me – it was the last day of my human life.

I silently gasped.
I met the werewolves at the very end of my human life, 63 years ago.
In fact, I met with the werewolves was a couple of minutes before the end of my human life.

The memories were quite blurry and I couldn't remember the details.

But I remember, I was bitten by Laurent and as he planned to end my life, they have appeared and made him to run away. Stopping him to kill me and leaving me to turn into a vampire.

But after the horrible three days of pure pain, when I opened my eyes, one person was there next to me, waiting for me to open my eyes.

The person who had the same blurry, dark brown eyes that were now glaring at me.

Jacob.

My long lost best friend. I was frozen. I thought he was dead, I mean, 63 years passed by since I last saw him.

But what shocked me the most was the fact that he was a werewolf.

I never gave to much thought about what happened that day, or how he found me in the middle of nowhere.

When I woke up and realized what I became, I kept my breath so I wouldn't hurt him.

I remember him saying that he was sorry, that he loves me, and that it would be for the best that I leave.

I took my chance and ran away.

I ran away so I couldn't hurt Jacob. I didn't look back.

I was also afraid that Laurent was still alive and that he will come after me.

But now I realize that he is long gone.

Jacob had saved me.

He knew what I was turning into after Laurent bit me.

Jacob could have killed me, to stop me from becoming a vampire, but he didn't.

He let me live.

A deep growl brought me back into the reality. I looked at the Alpha wolf and saw him slowly approaching us with his teeth showing. I realized that my little flashback, which lasted for just a few seconds, went unnoticed.

I was in a tricky situation. I couldn't let them kill us, but I couldn't kill Jacob as well.

A short vision came to me. I saw that Edwards phone will start ringing in about five seconds. It's Alice trying to get a hold of him, I guess she can't see our future anymore. I can't also. I think it has something to do with the werewolves.

I sent a thought in Edwards mind, just like I did with Jasper.

Alice will be calling you in five seconds. Don't react!

I saw Edward get tenser than he was when he heard my voice in his head and he glanced quickly to me. I guess he didn't expect that.

Can you hear me? I heard him thinking.

Yes.

Great. Just follow my lead, and do as I tell you. I heard him think. Did he think that he is stronger than me?

No, you follow my lead. I can easily get us out of here with my powers. I thought back.

Edward glanced back at me, clearly not happy. But before he could answer, his phone started to vibrate.

All the wolves looked at Edwards right pocket and started growling louder.

Edward lifted his hands, as to show them that he is no harm. As if.

And he slowly took the phone out of his pocket and showed it to them, and then he broke it in thousand little pieces and let it fall to the ground.

There. He thought.

A new vision came to me, and I saw Alice panic. She tried to call me, but I turned my phone out, thank God. I wouldn't like it if I should break my new diamond iPhone 8 limited edition; I was very fond of it. Alice would buy me a new one, and it was damn hard to get a hold of this one.

But I saw how Alice was really worried and was thinking about telling the family to go look for us.

I showed the vision to Edward.

Marie, we are in a very complicated situation, we can't worry about Alice right now! He shouted in his thoughts.

"I'm very sorry because of that. But, anyway, I can read minds." I looked at Edward shocked. How can he revile his power to someone so fast?! They can take advantage of it! "You can think a question or something that you want to say to us, and I will answer it to you out loud." Edward said to the wolves.

If you can read my mind, then you can read theirs as well. We can communicate with them like that. Edward thought.

I tried to listen to their thoughts.

Suddenly there were not just Edwards thoughts that occupied my mind, but they were also eight new voices in my head.

It was amazing how their thoughts went. It was like they were all thinking as one, but then again, everyone had their own thoughts.

But as soon as the Alpha wolf thought/said to us something, the rest of them became quiet, not a single thought could be heard.

Alright, I accept your suggestion, we will communicate like this, and it's much safer. If my memory serves me right, you're Edward Cullen?

As soon as he thought Edward Cullen a loud growl was heard.

I looked at the reddish brown wolf growling and glaring at Edward. Jacob.

I could hear his thoughts, his thoughts were the loudest.

You mother-fucker, you son of a bitch! How dare you come back? After all what you have done?! How DARE you? You heartless cold monster?! I don't even know what Bella saw in you! Do you still remember her, huh?! Isabella Swan? Ring a bell? I will remind you! That's the brown-eyed girl you left here to die! She was in a chaotic state when you left! She was a walking zombie! Hell, a zombie is NOTHING how she was after YOU broke her heart! And I was there to collect the pieces! Where were you when Laur-

JACOB, BE QUIET! The Alpha wolf said in a strange voice. It was as if Jacob couldn't contradict or do not listen to the voice. And he couldn't. Jacobs's thoughts became quiet once again and bowed his head in surrender.

Thank God, the Alpha wolf stopped Jacob on time. If he said something about Laurent, then Edward would know that I'm still alive, and my plan would be ruined.

I looked at Edward, and saw something I wish I haven't. It was like he had no life in himself any more. Like someone took his soul and all he was left was his body. His eyes were dead. His expression... I couldn't describe it... there was so much pain that... I didn't even know a person could feel so much pain. It was like our transformation, but ten times worse.

Edward? Please say something! I thought.

It seemed as my voice brought him to the present again. He looked at me. He kept staring at me. I began to feel uncomfortable under his stare.

Just like her… The lips… the same shape as hers… the ones I kissed… the smile just like hers… I heard Edward thinking.

Shit! Shit! SHIT! It's too early for him to know who I am! I didn't plan it to be like this! I don't want him to know that I'm his Bella yet! Shit! I knew there isn't any good at leaving the same shape of lips and eyes as I had when I was human! What was I thinking?!

Edward? You have to answer them. I said to him, hopping I'll distract him.

He shook his head as if he wanted his previous thoughts gone.

Good.

Edward looked back at the Alpha wolf, his expression emotionless.

I am very sorry about Jacob. It was very inappropriate of him to say that. The Alpha wolf thought, as the rest of wolves stayed quiet.

I sensed that Jacob wanted to say something again, but couldn't.

Edward nodded. "I'm very aware of my mistakes, I don't need a reminder." He said it out loud. His voice was emotionless, just like his face.

I apologies again. It won't happen again. I see that you and your family are back in Forks again.

"Yes, we are. We moved here two months ago."

And I see you have a new member. Is she the only one or are there more?! Did you break the treaty?

What treaty?

"No, we did not break the treaty, and we do not plan on doing so. And as for the first question; she is the only one."

And she is…

"Her name is –" He begun, but I took the opportunity to say it myself.

"My name is Marie. I joined the Cullens two days ago. I'm a new member of the family. I'm vegetarian just like the Cullens. I'm no treat for you."

Interesting. Does Marie has some power? He asked Edward, not knowing that I'm listening as well.

Edward looked at me, not knowing what to say.

Ask me the question that he asked! He can't know that I'm listening! I thought to Edward.

"Sam, the leader of the pack, wonders if you have any power." Finally I have some name for the Alpha wolf! Wait a minute! I remember someone called Sam from my human life...

"Yes, I do have a power. I'm a shield. I can protect me or whoever I want." I answered.

Thank you for answering us. That is very an interesting power. I apologies for the nearly attack. We didn't know who you are from the distance. Sam thought.

"Apologies accepted."

We won't be bothering you anymore. Don't forget the treaty!

"Don't worry, we won't." Edward said.

Goodbye.

"Goodbye."

As soon as the words left Edwards mouth, the wolves were gone.

I sighed out of relief.

"Well, that went surprisingly well." I commented.

"Yes, it did."

"I thought we would have to fight them, or kill them."

"And that's why I didn't follow your lead."

I laughed. "Yeah, right. You just wouldn't have accepted the fact that a girl saved your ass."

And finally, after all this time, his delicious lips turned up in a slight smile. Not a full smile, but it still counted as a smile.

"You wouldn't be able to take down one wolf, let alone eight!" he said walking away.

Oh, how dare he?!

I run and jumped on him, knocking us both to the ground.

I held his hand firmly to the ground so he couldn't move.

"You still think so?" I asked, laughing at his shocked face. I guess it's the first time someone took him by surprise.

But not a second later I was on the ground lying, and he was above me, holding me firmly to the ground, just like I did.

"I know." He said.

We stayed in that position for a few minutes, both of us having trouble with breathing.

His eyes flickered to my lips every now and then, like he was going to kiss me.

Oh, how I wish I could feel his lips again against mine.

But then, he swallowed and stood up. Letting me go.

I looked at the ground disappointing. I know I shouldn't let my hopes up, but I couldn't help myself. I wanted to feel his lips moving against mine again. I wanted to feel like everything is alright.

"Let's go home." He whispered and started running.

I quitly followed him.

A.N.

And there it was! Chapter 10! Finally! And it's the longest chapeter I ever posted! I really hope you like it. I'm sorry if there are some mistakes, but english is not my notive language, I live in Croatia (Europe) and I need about 4 – 5 hours to write a chapter, and that's why I don't update very often, because it takes my much time. But I will continue to update and write.

Well, I hope you liked it!

And I wanted to say a special thank you for the ones who reviewed the last time, so dear :
