Dedicated to Aunt Bell and WiddleWombat, you girls are amazing…
Summary: A month after the battle, the Whitlocks, Denali's, The Pack and rest think it's finally over. But little do they know that something bigger is on the horizon and gunning for them.
Previous,
I pulled her in my arms softly as we entered the small field. Her eyes were filled with the same amount of love that she has always looked at me with. The burning intensity of it and the worry that was etched on her face made me burst out in sobs and fall to my knees bringing her with me.
"I can't lose you" I sob, it had been rare times when I couldn't handle the stress of things and I had broken down in front of my wife, my mate.
"Shh Peter you will never loose me" she coos softly while pulling my face to her chest; my happy place is always in her chest.
"I love you Charlotte, every day of my un-dead life" I sob out; they were the words I had uttered to her on our wedding night and every day after.
"And I will love you for every day of every year of my life" she whispered back in her soothing voice as I sobbed in her arms. I didn't deserve her and I don't know what I did to have her.
Bella POV
Standing over Peter as his eyes moved below his soft violet lids had me worried, his brows scrunched slightly in a pucker. My brother needed to hunt soon, his gift has evolved more now since we have been together, Paul, Pete and I.
Leaning over I place my hand on his forehead once more, just like I had when this happened not long ago.
"Come back Huyana" I breathe out, letting the wind deliver it to his ears. His eyes fluttered open and so much pain and sadness reflected back at me, something was wrong so very wrong.
"What did you see? Tell me did it help to submit to your spirit self?" I was concerned very much so, but I kept my tone the same not to worry him.
"It's like when you lose control. It helped with the pain not with the information but I understand it somehow. There will be snow now and amongst mountains there's so much blood around me, there was cries and roars." He said so confused, so childlike that it broke my heart. Charlotte was instantly at his side with a comforting hand while he looked at my mate.
"They're coming early, they know of Bella" he whispers furiously before glaring at his lap.
"HOW?" was the outraged question, but deep down I had a feeling.
"Carlisle, Carlisle is still alive" my body went rigged in anger; I knew something wasn't right when we were told him and Esme had died.
I watched as everyone glanced at me and shot away to a marginally safe distance from me.
"What about Esme?" I manage to get out through my teeth, but it seems to crack part way. My eyes never left my brothers face, scared and furious with what I am about to hear.
"She is alive but in pieces and in severe pain" my power pulsed and once again I could see the life of everything and one around me, I knew that if I didn't control this now many people who I love would be killed or badly hurt. Concentrating deeply I managed to push my power into the ground, a ring of black pushed out from me like a bubble killing all bar my family in its wake.
My body relaxed as I felt all the anger, well most of the anger leave my body. I needed to escape here; I needed to be in a peaceful place and with my children.
"Jasper" I called out in a calm rough voice.
"Deal with this; I am going to spend time with our children. Come Ben, Tia sweetheart we're going to the beach" I beckoned them forward and tucked them into my arms as they stopped at my side. I slowly moved backwards into the tree lines and then took off into the trees.
We ran in silence, my shield out to protect them and my mental shield out to make sure we weren't being followed or hunted. When we reached the beach I pulled them tightly in my arms before sitting down on some drift wood.
"You know I love you very much" I whisper into their ears. Tia looked up at me with venom tears shining in her eyes while Ben looked at me with concern.
"We love you too mom, I'm so scared… we just found you and defeated Maria now this happens" Tia sobbed in my arms; I pulled her close and hummed to her softly.
"I won't be taken away from you or anyone, I will fight tooth and nail to stay alive" I whisper to them softly.
We sat in silence for a little while watching the waves softly crash on the sand. The wind was blowing softly causing my hair to curl around and blow in the breeze. Soon enough Jasper came from the trees and picked us up and cradling the three of us in his arms.
"My family, I'm so lucky to have you three" he whispers while placing us in his lap and burrowing his face into the crook of my neck.
We sat like that till the sun set, just watching the waves crash on the shore and the blue sky turning into a complex mixture of colours. Twilight, the time where it was safe for vampires to walk amongst humans without being all fucking fairy like.
"Ma, can we do some sand sculptures?" I looked down at Ben and giggled.
"Oh can we make it into a game?" Tia asked with a giddy voice, Jasper and I chuckled.
"Okay, how shall we play?" I ask her softly while walking down the beach a bit.
"Well I tell you what to make and you have to make it before the other" she says clapping, I couldn't help but smile at her. She for once is being her age; she normally is a quiet girl.
"Okay sweetheart." Ben coo's softly while pulling his mate into his arms. It was a sweet view, to anyone else people would be disgusted at the sight because they were so young, but to vampires and their vampiric age, they were considered adults in some way.
"The Pack!" she yelled out and we got to work, I used the sand and water to sculpture and as well as Ben, soon enough the whole pack was standing before us. Ben did them in person, I did them in wolves, though I did them next to each person that they went to.
"TIE!" Jasper yelled from his spot on the driftwood, his eyes sparkling with love and joy.
"BEN WINS!" my head shot around to see a very well sculptured Pegasus eating grass.
"WHAT!" I exclaim causing my three loves to laugh. I playfully growled before chasing after them, Tia squealed while Ben tried to stop me with sand. Silly boy.
"EEEEE" I squealed as Jasper picked me up and spinning me around, the moon was full tonight casting a silver glow over the ground and sea.
Ben and Tia continued to play catch and chase as Jasper and I stood on the water's edge and let the water splash on our legs.
"I love you so much Bella, I don't know what I did to deserve you" he whispers, his eyes twinkling with love and adoration. I smile softly and rest my head under his chin.
"And I love you Jasper, it was fate, all I had to do was find Peter. That fucker just knows shit sometimes" I said giggling, his laugh vibrated in his chest.
"I guess I owe the fucker" he chuckles while lifting my chin up so we were once again looking in each other's eyes.
Smiling softly I tilt my head up and our lips met.
The kiss is like every other kiss we share, sparks flow through me and to my chest filling me with warmth. The sounds around us drifted away and there was silence, love, awe and devotion swirled around us and I couldn't help but sigh dreamily.
Right now everything was perfect.
A/N: So I know this is short! But lately I have been having plagiarism done to me and then school, so I hope the short sweet moments were worth it.
