I own non of the characters, if I did I would be in a Cullen manwich!
BPOV
I didn't care were my legs were carrying me I knew I had to get out of here.
Edward had looked frightening yes,but the look on the vampires face snarling in Emmett's arm and turned me cold,
I need to be away , the way my body craved Edward scared me too, I was due to fly back home in a day or two I couldn't get more involved than I already was.
My legs were taking me to the spiral staircase , I took the steps two at a time, then I felt my heel misjudge the final step,
flying my arms out to grab something, they slipped on the cold metal handrail, I closed my eyes waiting for the pain of hitting each metal step.
It took me a while to realise I was still moving but with no pain, then I felt the cool feel of leather under my legs,
I opened my eyes and there he was sat in his chair his head in his hands.
" Hi" I whispered
His eyes shot to mine and within a second he was knelt before me cupping my chin in his hands.
" Hi" he smiled back kissing my lips softly , I leant into the kiss, but he pulled away.
" When I saw you falling.." he began, shaking his head and turning away.
" I'm fine" I smiled
" No you don't understand if I had found you bleeding ...I..." he broke off again, what was he saying..would he have killed me?
" I don't understand?" I pushed myself up and my joints popped,
" Bella..your..blood..its" he placed his head back on his chair closing his eyes.
I knew what he was saying , it was impossible , but maybe for the best I was falling too quickly as it was , maybe before we got too...got too what Swan?..your body is so attuned to his already..its like you've been waiting for each other all your..lives!
I knew I had to be the one to break this, if I was struggling with this maybe he was too.
I stood and walked to the door , his eyes were still closed.
" Don't leave" came a whispered voice, as my hand touched the handle of the door.
I turned to see his eyes still closed but a faint V between his eyebrows.
I stood there for what seemed like a lifetime in his shirt and boxers, he stood not looking at me and moved round his chair, to sit on the corner of his desk.
I walked slowly to him, his nostrils flared but that was the only indication he gave me that he knew I was close..
I knelt gently on the chair so I was eye to eye with him, I kissed his eyelid slowly, he took in a sharp breath, I waited to gauge his reaction before moving in to kiss his other one. I pulled back, his eyes opened and they were dark and solid.
" I'm not going anywhere" , how could I leave him he held my body in such reverence, I would stay as long as he needed me.
He swept me up and I was suddenly pinned under him on the Chesterfield, hips lips pressing on mine with urgency.
my breathing ragged he pulled back and layed soft kisses on my neck inhaling, he move to my chest and I bucked my hips to feel his cock restrained in his jeans , moving my hand between us I gripped the denim shaft and rubbed with the heel of my hand, he groaned and nipped my neck.
His hands moved to my heated core , his boxers now damp with my arousal.
He slid his fingers under the elastic circling my clit before plunging two fingers into my melting folds.
I bucked my hips towards him, " I want to taste you" he growled pulling his now glistening fingers never taking his eyes from mine he placed them in his mouth and a feral growl erupted from his chest giving me a fresh wave of dampness in his boxers.
" What are you doing to me?" he hisses
I placate him by caressing his shoulders , dragging my nails down his back, he clasps my arms and stills my grinding.
"What is it, Edward?"
" This...this shouldn't happen, your human, just a human girl for fucks sake" He sat up and moved me to sit on the sofa.
" Human Girl!" I shouted feeling my eyes start to prick , no I couldn't cry I wouldn't show him I was upset I was mad as hell, the hairs on the back of my neck bristled.
"That didn't seem to bother you when you were screwing me in your bed!" I screamed running my hand through my hair.
The door opened and in walked..."Rose?" I whispered , she shrugged and smiled,
"Sorry I was just looking for the club door"
" Rose what are you doing here?" I had momentarily forgotten Edward was in the room.
" Same thing as you I'm guessing" her eyes darting to Edward,
I couldn't believe it , my cousin and? , my hand moved to my mouth " Emmett?" I whispered
" Hell yeah" she laughed , noticing my eyes are puffy she walks to me putting herself between me and the brooding vampire.
"Hey Bells you okay?"
I nod..then shake my head. I was so fucking not okay yet I had never felt more alive in my life..
" Did he hurt you" she hissed ignoring his incredulous laugh.
" No..Rose he didn't hurt me, er..the clubs that way. I gotta go" I cried pushing past her, he caught my arm on the way past , his eyes pained.
"I'm not running I just need some space" I whispered , he smiled , but it didn't reach his eyes.
EPOV
I have to find her , maybe she has gone back upstairs to my room. I walk towards the staircase and as I round the corner I see a mass of falling limbs and brown hair..fuck..she's..falling down the stairs..
I flew to her and caught her as she was about to hit the steps , what if I had been to late, what if when I got here she had been on the floor and bleeding , i swallowed back a mouth full of venom .pull yourself together Cullen you would never intentionally hurt her..
I carried her back to my office placed her on the sofa and left her to come to, I sat back on my chair what was I doing..
" Hi" she whispered
My eyes shot to hers and I moved to her side cupping her face in my hands , she wasn't frightened of me when she woke she smiled..
" Hi" I smiled back kissing her softly , she leant into the kiss, I pulled up drinking in her beauty , awe inspired that this beautiful creature still wanted me.
" When I saw you falling.." I began, shaking my head random thoughts of her bleeding and helpless tortured my mind.
" I'm fine" she smiled, I had to laugh , she had just ran from me, I frightened the hell out of her she nearly killed herself falling down stairs and she says she's fine.
" No you don't understand if I had found you bleeding ...I..." I broke off again.
" I don't understand?" she pushed herself up.
" Bella..your..blood..its" I pushed my hands through my hair.
I heard her stand and move to the door.
" Don't leave" I whispered.
Standing but allowing no eye contact with those soul seeking chocolate brown pools , I sit on the corner of my desk.
Eyes closed my nostrils flared as she came closer..
I heard the leather crease as she knelt on my chair so she was at eye level with me,I felt her warm lips press gently on my eyelid I took a sharp breath,she kissed the other one. I opened my eyes and gazed at her beautiful face her features soft with worry
" I'm not going anywhere" she whispered .
I swept her up and pinned her under me on the cool Chesterfield, breathing ragged I pulled back and layed soft kisses on her neck inhaling she bucked her hips to my cock restrained in my jeans , moving her hand between us she gripped my denim clad shaft and rubbed with the heel of her hand, I groaned and nipped her neck.
I slid his fingers under the elastic circling her clit before plunging two fingers into her melting folds.
She bucked her hips towards me,I swallowed down venom again , my self control was slipping, the scent of her arousal and the fact she wanted me as much as I wanted her.
" I want to taste you" I growled pulling my glistening fingers from her heat I placed them in my mouth and a feral growl erupted..fuck she tasted divine..I was kidding myself that she couldn't possibly taste as good as she smelled..
" What are you doing to me?" I hiss
She caresses my shoulders and digs her nails into my back dragging her nails down his abs, I take her arms and stop her grinding.
"What is it, Edward?"
" This...this shouldn't happen, your human, just a human girl for fucks sake" I sat up next to her on the sofa.
" Human Girl!" she shouted
"That didn't seem to bother you when you were screwing me in your bed!" she screamed, I winced at her crass remark..suck it up Cullen..that's what you did..
The door opened and in walked her cousin Rose looking a little bemused
"Sorry I was just looking for the club door"
" Rose what are you doing here?" she sighed
" Same thing as you I'm guessing" her eyes moving to me and then Bella
" Emmett?" she whispered
" Hell yeah" she laughed ,
Rose walked to her putting herself between me and Bella
"Hey Bells you okay?"
She nodded..then shook her head.
" Did he hurt you" she hissed ignoring my laugh...I would never hurt her..I couldn't bare to cause her pain..
" No..Rose he didn't hurt me, er..the clubs that way. I gotta go" she cried pushing past her, I caught her arm on the way past.
"I'm not running I just need some space" she whispered , I smiled , I knew she needed space ro think but what she was thinking..I would never know.
I released her hand and watched as she walked slowly away.
"Jazz" I whispered, he entered the room and sat where I had just held her.
" What is it Edward?"
" I can't...I don't know how to.." I stammered
" Keep control?" he smiled
"Yeah"
"Edward you are totally new to this, you have never had to control yourself around anyone"
" I know but..."
"But nothing Edward, would you ever hurt her?" he smiled
My eyes narrowed of course I would never hurt her...intentionally I shook my head in disgust that he had even asked me that.
" Do you love her?"
Love?..."Yes I think I do , but its only been" I sighed
" What only been ..lets see a hundred and ten years are you now" he laughed
I smiled at the thought of telling her how old I actually was , I had been changed at the age of twenty four by Jasper, I had been out hunting with my father and brothers and had been caught in the crossfire, my family thinking I was dead fled to get help , Jasper had been hunting also..mountain lion..when he and Carlisle had come across my scent, I was barely alive through blood loss , he told me he changed me on the spot and carried me back to their cabin.
" Semantics Edward, since when has time made any difference" Jasper stood and walked across to my desk.
"Talk to her"
"I can't it never comes out right and she's too distracting..plus I told her I would give her some space" I sighed.
" Would you like me to talk to her, it means you doing a stage appearance tonight but I'm sure you can handle it" he laughed clapping his hand on my back.
" If you have any trouble to call for my evil Pixie , she'll sort them out" he laughed
" Evil Pixie hmm?"
" Like you wouldn't believe" he rolled his eyes and gave me a quick insight of his thoughts.
JPOV
I knocked gently on the bedroom door, I could feel the intense emotions on the other side.
Bella opened the door, her eyes red and puffy , she looked tired.
" May I come in?" I smiled
" Do I have any choice?" she spat back
"Of course" I concentrated on her feelings bringing them down slowly as not to make her feel uneasy.
"Sorry Jasper , come in" she smiled half heartedly and went back to sit on the bed, I closed the door and leant up against it.
" Bella can I speak to you openly about Edward about us"
She shrugged crossing her legs in front of her.
" Bella , Edward has been alone all his life, never dreaming he would find someone who wants him , who accepts him" I moved forward and sat on the edge of the bed.
" So he's never...you know..been with other vampires?" she smiled and the blush rose in her cheeks
" Yes , but for Edward it was immediate gratification , you know he can read minds and I can imagine that is very off putting during...well ..you know" I nudged her with my arm , she giggled and scooted forward so she was sat beside me legs dangling over the bed.
" I don't understand?"
" Bella he can't hers your thoughts that alone attracted him to you, but your blood, there is something about it and you that draws him closer to you, its like he's been waiting for you.
She inhaled and gave a little sob " That's what I thought , that's how I feel about him Jasper like I have been looking for him"
I smiled , she really did accept him..us.. for what we where.
" Bella this is all new to me too , Alice and I are taking it slow , but I am at an advantage I can feel her emotions , Edward can't and it scares him , he has always been in control and this scares him too , especially as he has to be so careful with you" She nodded and I could feel her relax.
" Why didn't Edward come to speak to me?" she asked playing with the hem of her shirt.
"You said you needed space and trust me he will give you what you ask for"
" Jasper?"
"Yes Bella"
" You can read his feelings right?"
I knew what was coming and I knew he had to tell her for himself how her felt.
" Bella , i am not going to tell you how he feels about you , you have to ask him"
" No , sorry Jasper, I just meant would he hurt me..when he shouted for me to leave..it scared me I was afraid he may attack me"
I laughed and lay into her, " Bella we aren't monsters , we feed from animal blood and never feed from humans, biting is a different matter, sometimes during" I winked at her and she blushed further "The need to bite is increased, Edward is aware of how you taste and he doesnt think he has the control to stop if he did"
" Do you ..think he has the control"
" I do.. he.." I stopped I was getting into uncharted waters.
" Thanks Jasper" she leant over and pecked me on the cheek, I smiled and stood to leave.
" Jasper?"
"Yes Bella"
" She loves you , you know that don't you" I nodded and winked at her.
"Yes I do Bella, and I love her too"
With that I closed the door behind me.
EMPOV
She kissed me as she said her farewell , her lips were powerful and the feeling went straight to my dick , it twitched as she wiggled her ass out of sight.
I sighed I couldn't believe this woman was so feisty and dynamic was human , I had , had my fair share of females , all vampires and non of them had made me feel like she did, then I thought of Aro's warning, I couldn't bare the thought of never seeing her again , I need to have her close , I needed to protect her.
CPOV
I watched my wife arranging the freshly cut flowers in their crystal vases.
She had taken to immortality with finesse and elegance and a gentle nature , even as a newborn.
She had taken to the others immediately falling into the nurturing role of motherhood.
Esme looked up at me through her soft lashes , smiling.
How I loved this woman , I exhaled and remembered the phone call from my son about Aro's warning.
How fucking dare he send a message a threatening message at that, how dare he threaten my wife.
I was so happy I could keep her safe , keep her here with me.
My life would end If I lost her.
