Chapter 12

Previously"

"Emmett...humm. Nice. But we have to stay here. We don't escape?" Rose asked.

Alice shook her head. "Neither of you want to."

Bella and Rose looked at each other, then at Alice,."What about you Alice?"

"They have something else planned for me."

Bella gasped as did Rosalie, "What do they have planned for you Alice?"

A tiny secret smile touched Alice's lips, "Oh they just want to have me join their group of psychics and to make me a Vampire."

~o0o~

"They want to make you a what?" Bella and Rose whispered, almost together.

"They want to make me a vampire. My psychic abilities will increase 100 percent!" Alice was actually smiling.

Bella and Rose were opening and closing their mouths together looking all the while like a couple of fish out of water.

Alice went on, "The reason you two were picked with me was because you both are so beautiful and they need beautiful women for the slave trade they have going." Alice paused to take a drink of water before continuing. "I was picked because they need more psychics and I'm the only one they've run across ever, that could see future events."

"But Alice, they didn't need either Rose or me for stuff like that. Why didn't they just take you and leave us?" Bella asked trying to make sense of it all.

"Oh come on now Bella, you are beautiful. You've got a great shape, gorgeous hair, a beautiful face. Just what the humans who buy slaves from these people want." Alice paused, "I guess they aren't people are they?"

Rose jumped up grabbing both Alice and Bella's hands, "Come on, let's get the hell outta here and now! She started dragging them toward the door.

Alice planted her feet and made it clear she was not willing to leave. "No, I'm staying. You both will be too. I told you there's no leaving, besides they really want me for me. Ok, for my talent, but that's more than anyone else ever has."

"Alice! That's not true!" Shocked Bella stared at her friend, but she could see the commitment in Alice's eyes. Alice would not leave here. Not now.

Rose didn't care. She was more frightened now than she had been with Dreadlocks. She and Bella ran to the door, opening it only to run into Monstro, also known as Emmett.

"Where do you little ladies think you're going?" Emmett looked like an overgrown teddy bear with his huge smile and curly hair.

Rose was seething. "Get outta my way Monstro! I want to leave this place!"

Bella was pushing with Rose to try and move Emmett, but he was as solid as a rock wall. Bella was about to dissolve into tears when she saw that Edward was standing just behind Emmett.

"Edward...what's going on?" Terror was in Bella's eyes and voice. "Are you going to drink my blood?" She was backing away from the door not sure where she was going to run.

"No, Bella, I'm not going to drink your blood. No one is going to. I will protect you. You are someone I've waited for; for over 100 years." Edward was holding his hands up in front of him and speaking very softly and calmly. "I promise, I'm not going to hurt you, nor is anyone else here. You'll be staying with me all the time now so I can protect you and also so we can get to know each other better."

Bella was backed up against a wall now and Edward was standing in front of her with both his hands on either side of her head.

Speaking very softly to Bella, "Can't you feel it? Can't you feel the electricity in the air? You and I are meant to be together."

She could in fact feel the electrical charge that was in the air between the two of them. She didn't understand it. She also realized that being this close to Edward made her feel safe. She knew Edward would never let anything bad happen to her.

"Ah, uh yes. I can feel the charge between us, and Edward, I feel safe with you." Bella admitted.

Then she remembered something. "Edward, are you a vampire?"

~o0o~

Edward took Bella by the hand and pulled her over to the chairs in front of the fireplace.

"Edward, I need to know. Are you a vampire?" Bella asked again. This time more firmly.

"Yes, Bella I am a vampire. Yes, I've drunk human blood, in the past. Now I make do with a concoction some of our scientists have come up with that's a nutritional replacement for human and animal blood. That's why my eyes aren't red, but green." From the questioning look on Bella's face, Edward knew he'd have to explain more, but now wasn't time for that.

"Look, you've got to convince Rosalie to not try to run."

"Why is that Edward?" Bella asked.

"Because she has not demonstrable talent that could be used by the Group. The only alternative she'll have is to claim she's mated to Emmett. Otherwise, once Alice is changed, Rosalie's only value will be is either food, or what they originally brought her here for." Edward replied calmly.

Bella's mouth was opening and closing. She couldn't get the words out.

"But the same could be said of me, Edward.

Taking both of Bella's hands into his he replied, "Not true love, not true. You have a very strong ability to shield your thoughts and I suspect with training you could become a very strong shield. And..." pausing dramatically, "You are also my mate."
