I've never had this problem, I never thought this would be a problem for me. Being attracted to one of my patients? It's so wrong... unethical even but who would I refer him to? Not that I believe he would ever discus what he has been discussing with me to anyone else.

And its not just the whole patient/therapist thing, he is Edward's brother. I would be entangling myself with the Cullen's again... like that turned out so well the first time. Ugggh! But why can't I get my hormones in control. I swear any time I see or hear or smell, oh god his smell... he smells so damn good- like tobacco leaves, cinnamon, and sandalwood and something else... I swear that alone gets me panting. STOP IT! Stop doing this to yourself NOTHING can happen with Jasper. Its wrong, very very wrong... bad... naughty. STOP IT!

I've been seeing Bella for 3 weeks now, in that time we've had 6 sessions and I am embarrassed to admit it took me till session 4 till I finally realized why Peter sent me here. At first I though it was to right the wrong my family did leaving Bella and finally take out Victoria so she could be safe from our world again but then I remembered Peter telling me this would be about my mate, that wasn't Alice... I now knew it was Bella or Anna as she preferred now. But she was Bella... beautiful. I have found many women sexy and attractive over my many years but never have I wanted to set up an alter by someone feet and worship them. That's what Bella brings out in me- devotion, reverence, a passion that burns so bright it would be impossible for the flame to ever go out.

And yet I can't bring myself to tell her. I know she is effected by me that's easy enough to tell. Those times when I can smell her arousal I swear I had an easier time controlling myself the first time I had to go to school with the Cullen's... with all those delicious smelling humans. Bella's scent God I want to bath in it. I want our bodies to connect and never part.

I know I will never be able to walk away from her, the 3-4 days in-between sessions is painful enough and even then I am never physically far from her but still not being able to see her beautiful face, hear her sexy as hell raspy yet equally sweet and elegant voice. It requires great amount of discipline and even then sometimes I cheat and do some light stalking although I learned very quickly never to follow her around a corner, I can still feel my eyebrows being signed off. That memory has me smiling, she is firecracker.

I am worried she will reject me. Why would she want to get involved with a vampire again? I would have to turn her if we ever stood a chance... I might have to regardless it is law and she isn't safe with the knowledge she has of us but I am terrified she will hate me if I took away the human life she worked so hard to build for herself.

I want the time I have with her to last forever but the more I stall telling her all this, the more horrible and selfish I feel keeping her in the dark just so I can continue having the pleasure of her company twice a week. It's our seventh session today and... I've decided to tell her the truth.

Walking into her office I swear I would rather face off against a newborn army then lay everything on the line right now, thats how terrified I am.

"There is something I have to tell you"

"Okay," she replies taking a seat but I remain standing, blocking the door a bit in case she tries to flee from me I know I won't be able to let her go even if she ends up hating me. God please don't let her hate me.

"I am not here today as a patient, but what I have to tell you, what we have to discuss... I couldn't put off any longer, it didn't feel right... keeping anything from you."

"Jasper, what are talking about? What are you keeping from me?" She stands up now walking over to me.

"Please know I only figured it out myself in our fourth session, I never set out to keep anything from you but I was afraid... I still am but that does not out weigh your right to this information."

She keeps quiet waiting for me to explain.

"Your my mate." There is quiet for a few uncomfortable seconds before she bursts out laughing... okay didn't expect that reaction in all of my possible scenarios.

"Who knew you were such a joker? I thought you where being serious for a second. Come on can't want to escape therapy that badly or else you wouldn't have come." She turns and starts to walk back to her chair.

"I'm serious. Peter, my friend the one who saved me told me to come to my first appointment I didn't immediately make the connection but maybe because your human or I'm just thick it took awhile longer. With Alice I never needed to constantly be by her side... I mean I was but usually because they where worried about my control but it never caused me physical pain to be away from her. With you I can't stand it not even going one day without treating my eyes to the sight of you or my ears to your lovely and sexy as fuck voice. I love you Anna, or Bella, or whatever you want me to call you, I love you. AND YOU ARE MINE. Even if you refuse me today, decide not to acknowledge our bond you will not be able to send me away, I will never leave you or allow you to leave me if I have to I will turn you and then it would be impossible for you to deny what I know to be true. We belong together, your my soul mate. And I will love you and fight for you until the world stops spinning." I feel a bit out of breath as I wait for her response. Her back is still to me so I have been unable to read those big gorgeous eyes of hers.

"Your are mine...I love you...you won't be able to send me away... I will never leave you... soul mate... we belong together."

Everything is spinning, I feel faint. I can't believe Jasper came in here and said all of that. I thought for sure he was kidding but that speech no one... not even Edward has ever spoken so passionately to me. What the hell am I meant to do? Mates? Soulmates? Im not even sure if I believe in those... Jasper certainly does even threatened to turn me to prove it. Turn me... I can't believe after everything... all I've done to protect myself I might end up a vampire anyway. And even more unbelievable the thought doesn't have me terrified... it almost makes a weird sense that everything has lead to here, to this moment. But Jasper? Jasper and I soul mates? I mean we've never even kissed?

"You said you'd be willing to turn me to prove it?"

"Yes."

"What if I wanted you to prove it another way?"

"Anything. Anything you want I'll give it to you." He replies so eager and without any hesitation or trepidation.

"Kiss me, give me the best kiss of my life... and I'll be yours."
