CHAPTER 10: roar

BPOV:

"Hello, there."

I smiled at the young lady. Her arms were full of groceries that she was carrying to her car. She smiled hesitantly and then continued on her way.

I thought over why she would walk through an alley way to get to her car, surely she has heard the stories. But then again, she wasn't going to expect me.

I walked quickly behind me and put my hand on her shoulder, turning her around.

She gasped loudly and dropped her groceries. Food tumbled onto the floor as her eyes flashed with fear.

"What are you doing?"

I smiled at her.

"Don't worry about it."

I then snapped her neck.

EPOV:

Bella strolled through the doors of the family home just as the clock read 3:14AM. Her red eyes shone bright with fresh human blood but the smile on her face distracted me.

"How was your hunt, dear?"

Esme's soft voice rang out in the silence of our home.

"Delicious."

Bella's playful voice answered back.

"I hope I didn't get an important one though."

Bella's sentence finished with Rosalie's angry heel hit the tile.

"You hope? You could have endangered us all, and you're just hoping you didn't kill an 'important one'?"

Bella's face changed from playful to thoughtful.

"I would never do anything to endanger you all on purpose, Rosalie."

"Oh sure, Bella. I'm sure you really care about us. You got lucky finding Edward, and instead of accepting his lifestyle, you go out and slaughter humans. Ever stop and think about how that effects him? How that effects us?"

Bella's eyes never left Rosalie's as she stepped forward.

"Do you think I don't know what the Voltori would do to all of us if I killed carelessly? But here's the thing, they won't hurt us because I hunt humans. No, that's the natural way to hunt."

Bella's voice rose a higher octave. She turned and looked at me with pleading eyes.

I reached for her hand and I lead her to my room. In the coolness of the night, I pulled her closer to me and hugged her.

"I'm sorry about, Rose." I whispered.

She shook her head and apologized too.

"I didn't mean to yell, it's just, I know the dangers. She treats me like I don't know anything. She hates me, Edward. She doesn't want me here."

All these years of living with Rosalie, I've kept my opinion to myself. I knew she could be obnoxious and selfish, but I never let myself show the anger. Looking down at my wife, my wife that I didn't know was even still alive, I let it show.

"We're leaving. You don't deserve this, we don't need to deal with Rosalie's attitude anymore."

Bella nodded in return.

From downstairs, I heard Esme's cry of sadness.
