My Lamb:
You are everything to me. You and I have been through so much, both together and apart, that I still find it hard to believe you would still want to be with me. I knew from the very first day you walked into Biology that you would be mine. I wasn't sure then whether I would kill you or not. I'm sorry for that, but it is the truth.
Leaving to hunt that week was a double-edged sword. It made it easier for me to be near you, yet it was so difficult to be away from you. I believe I loved you even then, Bella. Each of the female vampires I have come across, each woman who has tested her wiles against me, has failed. They fall so short of anything I could ever stand for. I thought I would spend eternity alone, watching my parents and siblings enjoy the loving relationships that I alone was denied. But then you appeared before me, and I knew it was not so. I knew I'd found love.
I can't tell you how happy I am that we are starting our 'lives' together. I never thought I'd feel this sort of happiness. The joy that you and our daughter have brought me is indescribable. I thank you for your unconditional love, for our daughter, and for your sincere acceptance of my family and the way we are.
Isabella Marie Cullen. I loved you then, I love you now, and I'll love you always.
