Chapter 10

Bella's POV

Its two months since I figured that Edward and I are having twins and my morning sickness was finally over but I still had the other symptoms like frequent urge to urinate, food cravings, hormonal changes, and tender breasts. But unlike the normal women, my stomach is growing bigger by five inches. Carlisle's theory was right but nobody still doesn't know what will happen to me in the future months.

"Bella, guess what?" Alice asked me as I was eating my breakfast with Emmett and Esme around the kitchen.

"There's a sale at the mall?"

"No, silly. Leah Clearwater is pregnant."

"What?" I screamed as I dropped my fork. "But…she –she's dating –Jacob imprinted her." Alice smiled at me as if she wanted me to continue on the news. "Jacob is going to be a dad. When did you find this out? Why hasn't he called me?"

"He is." Alice told me. "But I didn't see your reaction in my vision. He and Leah are coming over in ten minutes."

"Well, thanks for the heads-up."

"What is with Jacob and older women?" Emmett laughed and I rolled my eyes.

"Edward and Carlisle just came back from hunting but all of us are going to leave when the wolves arrive. But I think Jacob will have some questions for Carlisle. " Alice told me.

"I'll stay too then. I already went hunting last night." Esme said.

Edward and I sat on the couch while Esme and Carlisle stood near us. I have so many questions running through my mind that I don't think I will be able to speak once they arrive. Finally, I heard a car coming to the driveway and saw Jacob and Leah come out the truck along with Billy Black and Sue Clearwater.

"Um, hey Bells." Jacob said as he hugged me gently.

Then, I was sure my mouth dropped because Leah's stomach was as big as mine. "Leah, how far along are you?"

"I'm in my second trimester." She said to me. "But you look as big as me."

"Yeah but I've been pregnant for two months." I told her. "How long have you been pregnant?"

"A few weeks before your wedding." She blushed.

I stared at Jacob, sure that my mouth dropped. "I –I….I –I can explain." Jacob said as I saw red on his face.

"Trust me; we gave him and Leah hours of lecture." Sue clarified. "But I am happy that I am going to be a grandmother."

"I thought it was impossible for me to get pregnant." Leah said. "But…after hearing the story of Rebecca from Jacob, I had…little bit of hope."

"If your pregnancy will be anything like Rebecca then you will have –"

"We know, Doc." Jacob interrupted. "We talked to Caleb and he warned us but it will be different because Leah isn't carrying a half-vampire and half werewolf child in her womb."

"I'm happy for you two." I managed to say. My mind still whirling around with the news.

"We heard the news about you having twins. Congrats." Billy said.

"And you two?"

"One baby." Leah smiled. "We're going to see what the gender is next week. I'm hoping for a girl."

"No, no girls. Just boys." Jacob said. "I am not going through that same thing dad went through with my sisters."

"Oh?"

"I'm a werewolf. I can kill the boys who want to date my daughter." Jacob threatened.

Edward chuckled, "Same thing."

"It's astonishing that you two are able to have children." Carlisle said. "This is incredible news."

"Thank you."

"You should come over some time." I said to Leah. "We can share how miserable we are about this pregnancy." I smiled at her.

"I would love that."


After Leah and Jacob left, I went back to our room and lay down, trying to sleep. But I could feel the twins moving…a lot. It will probably be hours before I could sleep. I opened a drawer near the bed and grabbed my sketchbook. Edward doesn't know I still draw and I want to keep it that way. Whenever he isn't around, I will draw my dream or vision into the sketchbook.

Ever since Rafael's kidnapping, Edward begins to worry about what I dream about and the meaning of it. During these months, my drawings will end up the same. It's always the yellow eyes, the full moon, and the fire…the same dream since the night before we left Isle Esme. But I don't understand what they mean! It's frustrating. I want to tell somebody in this family but I know they will tell Edward in a second because of what happened last time.

Quickly, I put my sketchbook away before Edward entered the room with water in his hand. "Are you alright?" He asked me as he took me in his arms.

"I'm fine. I'm glad that Jacob and Leah found each other after everything that has happened to them." I said as my fingers barley touches his pale, cold skin arm. "They deserve to be happy."

"What are you thinking about?" Edward asked me.

"I just hope…that our children and Jake's children will able to be friends. You know the whole vampire and werewolf thing." I said to him.

"Let's worry about that when they get older." Edward said to me. "Do you want to watch a movie?"

"I have a better idea." I said and turned my body around. "Kiss me."

"Bella –"

"It's just a kiss, Edward." I whispered, my lips leaning in closer.

He growled as his lips took me away. It was passionate and real and I really wanted to continue. But Edward pushed himself away to the wall, telling me that we have to stop there. I wanted to cry. Stupid hormones. Then, his face changed like he was in shock again. "Edward, what's wrong?"

I got off the bed and looked where he was looking and saw nothing outside in the window. But I was wrong. The dark clouds disappeared as the full moon appeared. When the full moon appeared months ago, I was fine but didn't transform and there was no pain. But now, there was another full moon and I was already bigger than last time. All of a sudden, Edward ran out of the room and I could hear yelling between Alice and him.

"Alice did you see this?" Edward yelled. "Tell me!"

"Edward, stop!" I heard Esme yell.

"Alice, tell me!"

"Edward, let her go." Jasper growled.

"Ed –" I stopped talking as I felt the pain in my body. My knees fell down to the ground as the pain was increasing endlessly and I was experiencing a dizzying surge of pain and pleasure. "Edward –" Suddenly, I felt Edward's cold hands pull my face up, staring at his beautiful eyes. But I couldn't hear what he was saying to me as I detected an undeniable rippling up my spine.

"Edward, her emotions are too strong. She's in too much pain." I heard Jasper say.

"Bella, please tell me what to do." Edward begged me.

"Get…out!" I said, through my clenched teeth.

I felt blood churned with heat in my veins and the smell of the earth drenched in the area.

"Edward, she's right. We have to go." Carlisle said to him.

"What?"

"Her werewolf side is controlling her and she can't concentrate with a room of vampires." Carlisle explained. "We have to leave."

"No, I won't leave my wife."

"Edward, please." I begged him as I could feel more pain coming from my thighs.

I saw Edward's face filled with sadness and I wanted to comfort him but the wolf in me wanted to do the opposite. After everyone left, the wolf in me stayed control for a while but I was trying to ignore the pain I was filling in every parts of my body that wanted to transform and kill. I felt my salty tears spilling down from my cheeks as the pain continued.

Please make it go away.

Please…are the twins alright? Can they feel the same pain as I feel?

I howled in frustration at the moon. My voice echoed about me like a curse.
