Previously...
(Bella's POV)

We chased the scattered and terrified herd and terrified herd, but instead of feeding again, this time I watched carefully to see how he was able to hunt so neatly.

It was a surprisingly sensual experience to observe Jasper hunt and I can see now why in the memories of us returning form a hunt that we would ravage each other. His smooth spring was like the sinuous stride of a snake; his hands were so sure, so strong, so completely inescapable. His full lips were perfect as they parted gracefully over his gleaming teeth with a few strands of blond curls falling in front of his eyes. He was glorious.

I felt a sudden jolt of both pride and desire. He was mine. Nothing could ever separate him from me ever again, I would make sure of that. I still had yet to hear of his life after I had been killed, but I knew that I would do my very best on my part to make sure that we were never separated again.

"No longer thirsty?" He asked me, interrupting my thoughts.

I shook myself slightly and shook my head. "Done, I think." I felt very full, sort of sloshy, even. I wasn't sure how much more liquid would fit into my body. But the burn in my throat was only muted. Then again, I'd known that the thirst was just an inescapable part of this life from what I remembered. And I had a feeling that it would be worth it.

"Come on, darlin'. Let's go home." He held out his hand to me, knowing that I would have a lot of questions when we got back. I took it, and his skin felt warm to me in a very soothing way as we made our way back to the Cullen mansion where I hoped to get the answers that I so desired.

Chapter 11
(Bella's POV)

Running back to the house was rather quite but there was things I needed to think about. It wasn't until we were almost there that I smelled two scents that I didn't know, but were very familiar.

I froze to my spot just inside of the tree line before the forest opened up to the clearing that was holding the property around the house.

Jasper was at my side in a second. "You okay there, Darlin'?" He asked, his voice full of concern. His golden eyes were hypnotizing as I stared into them.

"Yes, I'm fine." I looked back into the clearing and noticed that the Cullen's along with two other vampires were standing out front.

Looking closer, I had a flashback of the young female that was standing next to the man that looked like Peter, the man from my visions, who I remembered as my brother.

...Flashback...

"So, yer my brothers mate?" I asked standing in barn with a young newborn.

She nodded and bowed her head. "Yes ma'am." She looked up at me and smiled. "The name's Charlotte."

"Well, Charlotte, I want ya ta be careful 'cause Maria don't like mates in her ranks." I sighed falling to the ground. "I even have to hide who my mate is." I pulled the necklace out that had my wedding band on it. I felt I could trust her.

"The Major has one..." She didn't finish before I hissed at her.

"Yer ta keep yer mouth shut, ya hear me?" I snapped as my hand was around her throat and I had her pinned to the ground. "No one, other than my brother, knows."

Charlotte nodded as she whimpered. The door then opened and Peter and Jasper entered.

...End Flashback...

"Charlotte and my brother, Peter." I whispered as I stood in the same spot I froze. "But... How...?" I shook my head in befuddlement.

"Don't worry, darlin'." Jasper whispered in my ear as his arms were wrapped around my waist. "Yer gonna get the answers fer all the questions ya have." He unwrapped his arms and took my hand as he lead me out into the clearing around the house.

Everyone was quite as I came into the area. Peter and Charlotte were smiling bright as they moved forward, though I could tell that if it were possible, Peter would be crying.

I cut my eyes to Jasper who kissed my cheek and nodded before I walked over and looked up at my brother and his mate.

"Peter? Charlotte?" I still couldn't believe that along with his mate, this was another man from my visions and that they were all coming to life before my eyes. I remembered what Charlie told me while I was changing, about him having dreams when he was younger, as wells. "Is this some kind of dream?" I asked no one in particular.

I could feel hysteria bubbling up in me as I started to shake. I could comprehend more than before and it was a little overwhelming for me. Peter engulfed me in his arms and held me tightly as Jasper was immediately at my side, as well with concern written on his handsome features.

We were all in the living room, Jasper and I sitting in a chair that was in the corner of the room. There was a couch on one side of us while a love seat sat on the other. There was another couch on the other side while a single chair sat by the love seats. The others filed in and took up their seats. Most of the mated couples had their mates in their laps, which was good for me so that way I could tell who was mated to who.

As I looked around the room I could remember all the names that Jessica and Angela told me. I looked at the other four that I didn't know, besides Sam. I was a little shocked that he was here, because I had to admit that he stunk. I could hear chuckling at the fact that I wrinkled my nose. The older golden eyes vampire was staring at me with awe and wonder on his face. I could tell that he was shocked by the fact I was so calm, but there was something else that I just couldn't put my finger on.

"Well, since no one's gonna talk, I reckon' I will." Peter stood and walked over and took a seat on the love seat that was next to Jasper and I. "I know ya have tons of questions, but I can answer most of them fer ya."

I looked around the room and found Sam's eyes. He nodded along with the others. I was rather speechless at the moment so I just looked back at Peter. "How can all this be real? How could I have lived before, then was turned into a vampire, but was killed before I was then reborn again? What is this, reincarnation or something? I just don't get it." I cringed back into Jasper's arms. This was the only place I seemed to feel sane. I barely knew him and yet, it felt like I had known him all my life. But I wasn't about to question it as I decided to try to comprehend one thing at the time, leaving this mating thing to a time where Jasper and I were alone to discuss it, if possible.

"From what I 'know', yer rather special and yer eye color just proves it." He smirked looking at Jasper from over my shoulder. "She stopped ya from chasin' those humans, didn't she?" I could see the humor in his eyes while the others gasped as if shocked.

"Jasper?!" The leader's mate looked hurt.

"I'm disappointed in you, son." The leader of the coven said.

All their words and looks caused the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. I didn't know I was the one growling until Peter looked back at me with a raised eyebrow. I could hear the sound, but I didn't know who it was coming from. It was instinctual.

I stopped but didn't stop the glaring. They were wrong on their assumptions.

"It was needed." A short dark haired pixie looking vampire, Alice, spoke up. "I saw the whole thing and I knew that Bella could handle Jasper." She shrugged as if it was no big deal. She was the only one that didn't look at him with scorn. She was sitting on Edward's lap, the one with the copper bed of hair.

"But we should have gone with you, she's only a newborn." The older female female vampire looked ashamed of what happened.

"I know that I may only be a newborn, but I remember a time when I was like this... but I was somewhere else..." I closed my eyes and tried to remember. "I was standing in the center of a bunch of drained bodies."

Jasper's arms tightened around me which caused me to open my eyes. When they were open I could see that Alice was nodding while Edward looked shocked. Peter and Charlotte looked happy, but Jasper seemed to be shaking.

I turned and looked at him and found that his eyes were clenched tight. I couldn't help myself as I raised a hand and cupped his cheek, automatically kissing him on the lips.

"Whatever happened wasn't your fault." I whispered as I looked into his golden eyes. "I'm here now." I murmured as I nuzzled my head under his chin.

I saw that Alice was smiling widely as she gazed at me and Jasper.

Did she love Jasper? Who was she to my mate?

"What else do ya remember?" Peter brought my attention back to him.

I blinked a couple of times as I looked at Peter. "I remember you getting ready to leave." I frowned a little. "You, Jasper and me... we were all human. I felt that something bad would happen if you left, but you told me that you both needed to go and that your destinies were waiting." I shook my head and looked at the blond coven leader, then to the others.

"That was the day we - Peter and I - left fer the war." Jasper spoke as he opened his eyes to look at everyone. I could see the hurt in them. "It was two days after I asked for yer hand in marriage." He kissed my forehead as he buried his nose back in my hair. I could tell that it was the only thing keeping him calm somehow.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but I forgot to introduce myself and my mate." The coven leader cleared his throat as he stepped forward with his mate at his side. "I am Carlisle Cullen and this," He looked at the woman at his side, "is my mate, Esme Cullen. We are the parents and patriarch, so to say." He smiled softly like a father would. "The reason I am so interested in your attitude and eye color is because I am a doctor and we are curious creatures by nature. What was your change like?" He smiled softly and his eyes were kind.

"That's OK." I would have blushed if I could. "I felt a slight burn, but it felt like a sunburn, nothing more. I do remember that I was a vampire at one time, but most things are blank." I shrugged as I looked at Jasper. "I thought it was all just a dream or hallucinations."

"I think I can tell ya why." Peter smirked. "Since she done went through it once she didn't have ta go through it all over again." He was sitting beside Charlotte.

Carlisle looked as though he was thinking. Edward looked around at everyone, but kept looking back at me with a frown on my face.

"Is something wrong?" I tilted my head to the side. "You keep staring at me."

Jasper growled and Edward held his hands up. "I just can't hear Bella." He shook his head. "Its like she has a barrier around her mind and when Jasper is around her, I can't read his either."

"Its Lil' Bit's gift." Peter sat back with a smirk on his face.

I felt Jasper tense behind me. I turned and could see fear in his eyes.

I reached up and cupped his cheek. "What's the matter?" I whispered looking into his eyes. "I can see that you're worried."

"Ya were a shield before, but only mental." Jasper looked down at me. "It seems ta me darlin' that yer both kinds of shields. Yer both a mental and physical an' if that's the case, when and if Maria finds out, she'll be comin' fer the both of us."

(Unknown POV– Somewhere in the South)

I could feel that it was time. Looking at the tape I was sent was rather wonderful. Right in front of my eyes was my Major and my General.

She was alive?

I still remembered the day that I killed Isabella and burned her in front of my Major. I was rather surprised that he didn't try and kill me, especially with Peter on his side. I know how Peter tried to kill me once or twice after the Major left, but he was never able got close enough. I went into one of the old mines and sealed the entrance and made my own up through a rocky mountain. Only my warriors know how to get home. No one can track us, because our scents are not on the surface.

Turning around I looked at my three most loyal. James, a white male, was a tracker that I sired about two years after my Major left (Guessing). He was extremely talented. He can find anyone if he has smelled their scent only one time. James was also very accurate. His mate, Victoria, is just as gifted as her mate. She can get our army out of any sticky situation that we get into. We win no matter what and we don't get into fights that we cant win. Laurent, the other male, was from French descent but was black with long black dreads that hang past his shoulders. He was extremely fast however, unlike James and Victoria, I am not Laurent's sire. He came to me from France about one week before my Major made his break.

He would know where to find the Major and who to talk to. They were all older than newborns, but they were rather useful. The only reason I let them live is because of their usefulness. If they were like any of my other newborns then I would have them disposed of as soon as their year mark was over. Waving the three of them over I noticed that Victoria was glancing around the area.

"Is there a problem?" I asked looking from James to Victoria.

"No, Mistress." James bowed then stood. Laurent and Victoria followed suit. "You wished to speak to us?"

"I have a job for you to do." I smiled as I placed my hands behind my back. "I believe it is time for you to find the Major and my General." I looked at James. "You know his scent still, Si?"

James nodded with a sadistic grin on his face. "Of course, Mistress." He looked at Victoria and then Laurent. "We will find him and bring not only him back, but the General, as well, along with the Captain."

"What do you wish us to do about the Captain's mate?" Victoria ran her fingers through James hair that was tied into a low pony tail.

I thought back to the girl that escaped with Peter. Charlotte I believe her name to be. "Bring her back that way I can kill her."

"Yes, Mistress." James, Victoria and Laurent all answered.

A/N: So, what does everyone think? Any idea's what will happen next and how the talk with Bella and everyone else will end? What about with Maria? What will happen when James and his comrades find them? Any ideas? Review!
