Chapter fourteen
"So Tia tell me what your talent it?" Bella asked as we walked inside the house.
"I can boost a person's gift immeasurably but I need to be in contact with them." Tia replied.
"That's how my shield stayed up that first night as we slept. Amazing." Bella replied while cuddling close to my chest while sitting on my lap.
"Would you mind demonstrating for us?" Peter asked.
"Sure but I can't be sure that it will work right away. I haven't intentionally used it in about a year." Tia said while staring at the floor.
"I think we should pick something with a less offensive gift otherwise we could unintentionally blow the house up." I replied.
"Excellent point brother." Peter replied.
"I know let's try it with Bree. Bree can you tell us who the last three people were to touch this, not including me or yourself." I asked as I tossed a magazine at her.
Tia walked over to her and gently put her hand on Bree's arm and they both gasped. Bree kept her eyes open but they seemed to glaze over like she didn't see what was around her then when she spoke her voice was soft and monotone. "Alice placed it on the coffee table in the middle of her fung shui session of the living room. Before that it was on the end table over there. Rosalie had put it there when she flipped through it yesterday. Rosalie got it from the table by the front door when James got the mail yesterday." Bree said before slighting shaking herself back to normal.
"That was amazing Bree, is that the way they always look? Crystal clear but in black and white?" Tia asked.
"I guess, I only had my first one when Bella was taken. By the way Jasper don't make me backtrack like that again I meant to stop at James but I got a glimpse of the mailman with it and let's just say I'm not touching anymore women's magazines that he delivers. Gross." Bree replied.
"Sorry Bree, didn't know." I replied.
We chatted and snacked on some food for a bit longer describing what we did during my search for Bella and her imprisonment at that building. We laughed and talked some more but I could tell that Bella was getting tired and probably wanted to shower and change after being in the car for so long. I need to get her settled. "Excellent idea Jasper." Alice trilled.
"Alice you know how everyone hates when you do that." Edward commented.
"Well he shouldn't be so decisive in his thoughts then." Alice said with a smirk.
"I'm confused, what just happened?" Tia asked.
"Sorry baby sis, Alice can see the future on decisions you make and she was commenting on Jasper's decision to get Bella settled for the night." Edward replied.
"Oh yeah, being in the car all day was a bit much, but I understand Jasper wanted to get Bella to safety first." Tia replied.
"Hey don't forget yourself in that Lil Bit. You're a McCarty now." Emmett said as he pulled Rose up from her chair and placed her on his lap.
"If it's not too much trouble do you mind if I showered before going to bed?" Tia asked.
"Well lookie here a polite McCarty. Hell must have frozen over." Riley said from behind Bree.
"Shush all of you, my little sister needs to go to bed and so do I. Now who's showing her to her room?" Bella asked.
"I can, I helped my mom and Alice set everything up earlier today. I know where the room is." Benjamin spoke for the first time all night. Tia quickly got up and followed Benjamin up the stairs to her room.
"Jasper please tell me he was just being polite." Bella whispered to me.
"Sorry Darlin' he's oozing love at first sight for Tia." I replied.
"We need to talk to his parents right away." Bella said.
"Charles, Makenna do you have a moment?" I asked.
"Sure, what's up?" Charles replied.
I asked them to follow us to my room and quickly filled them in on a sugar coated version of Tia's life with Eleazar and by the time I was done Makenna was sobbing and whispering 'that poor little dear'. Charles excused himself and called for Benjamin making up an excuse that he needed help bringing in my bags from the truck. They were good parents and I knew that they would not forbid the relationship but would caution him on the side of taking things slowly with Tia. Poor Benjamin, he finds a girl his age to spend time with and will have to spend a ton of time building her near non-existent self esteem up before he can even confess that he is falling helplessly in love with her.
Bella left my embrace and walked into the bathroom and started the shower water. I decided to give her space and settled down on the bed to stretch out. After a few minutes the water turned off and a billow of steam escaped the bathroom before Bella emerged. As usual she was an angel standing there in just a towel her long locks dripping wet from the shower. Instead of walking to me she turned and headed for the closet. After a moment I heard her mumble 'Alice' and then she came back out with a smirk on her face and walked toward the bed. Before I could speak my little vixen dropped her towel and crawled up the bed and on top of me. "I love you Jasper Whitlock. Couple kisses before I fall asleep?"
"Anything for you Darlin'." I said as I kissed her deeply for the next half an hour before she finally fell asleep in my arms. IN MY BED!

The past few weeks have been complete chaos but at least I was home with my family and friends. After that first night in Jasper's, I mean our bed, I woke to Jasper's soft kisses down my body. We made love quietly and slowly because I know my brother and he'll use any excuse to bust up my fun.
After two weeks home Tia's relationship with Benjamin seems to be working just fine. She has really opened up to everyone and he dotes on her every moment he gets. Makenna and I find ourselves choking back sighs every time he does something sweet for her.
Yesterday Charlotte announced that she was pregnant! I'm so excited, I get to be an aunt. I hope it's a little boy with Charlotte's demeanor but the Whitlock features.
Alice is running herself ragged preparing for Rose and Emmett's wedding this coming weekend. They have both told me hundreds of times how glad they were that we made it home in time. They didn't want to delay it for fear that she would be stolen again. Even though it is virtually impossible now in this veritable fortress we live in. The boys have been working overtime on security modifications.
In about two months from now the other houses should be built and the Whitlock mansion will be less crowded. By the time the construction is completed the property will look like a small town rather than private property.

IT'S MY WEDDING! IT'S MY WEDDING! IT'S MY WEDDING! IT'S MY WEDDING! I have been chanting that nonstop since I woke up this morning. Alice actually looks tame to my freaked out and bubbly self. In just a few short hours I will be Mrs. Emmett McCarty. And cue the outrageously girlie squeal!
The house is in chaos, all the woman fluttering about and all the men pacing the floor in worry. Catering trucks, deliveries and so on have been coming down the dirt driveway all day. My brothers told me several times that Emmett is a nervous wreck. Peter, Jasper, Garrett and Emmett are practically molesting each delivery person as they come in the door.
Alice just finished my hair. Two hours til showtime.
Charlotte just finished my makeup. One hour and fifteen minutes til showtime.
Bella, Bree and Victoria are holding my dress up over my head as Alice and Charlotte guide them down over my body. Half an hour til showtime.
KNOCK. KNOCK.
"Come on Baby sister, it's time!" Peter shouts through the door.
The wedding was amazing, Alice is a genius. Emmett never once looked away from me or let go of my hands. I thought Jasper was going to spray him with a hose when they pronounced us husband and wife and we kissed. Kissed, ha. More like massive amounts of PDA, Emmett style.
We danced, we drank, we ate and we laughed but now I'm nervous. We're going to the guest house for our honey moon. Until we know for sure that the Volturi aren't going to try another attack on us Emmett doesn't want me leaving the grounds. Okay so he's a bit possessive but he's mine and I wouldn't have him any other way.
I'm so nervous right now I can't even think straight. No I'm not worried about making love, I'm not a virgin. Emmett took that away awhile back when he first started visiting Jasper and we let him in on the secret that I wasn't dead. I'm nervous because we're now husband and wife and I want kids. Watching Charlotte has made me want that badly but what if Emmett wants to wait. I'm 24, I don't want to wait any longer.
"Whatcha thinking about so hard there beautiful?" Emmett said with his signature smirk. And cue the melting gooeyness that is me when I see that smile.
"Lots of things, which would you like to hear about?" I asked.
"Depends do they involve us or other people?" Emmett asked as he walked around me to unzip my dress and kiss my shoulder.
"It's about us definitely. I'm just nervous."
"Nervous about us being together? I know we have only been together a couple times since getting you back from your kidnappers but we've never had a problem in that department baby." Emmett replied while stripping me of my bustier and panties.
"No it's not about the act of sex more of the future consequences of it."
"I'm going to wager a bet you're talking about kids, right?" Emmett asked as his hands made fast work of shedding his dress shirt and belt.
"I guess." Was my brilliant reply.
"Beautiful, the moment you say you want them we'll get right on to making them." He said as he unbuttoned his pants then carried me to the bed.
"And if I said I'm ready right now?" I said between kisses.
"Then I would say let's make this honeymoon in to a practice zone for producing future Emmetts." He replied as he kissed a trail down my jaw and neck nipping the flesh here and there.
"God baby that feels wonderful."
"Mmm." Was his response when he reached my very erect nipples.
Before he got too far down my body I slipped my toes inside the waist band of his pants and pushed them down his legs until I couldn't go any further.
"Ah. I love that you can do that." Emmett hissed and I smirked.
"You moved to fast otherwise I would have taken them all the way off. By the way have I told you how much I love you going commando?" I cooed.
"Not as much as I love your taste." He said as his tongue hit my folds.
"Oh baby, please don't stop."
His hands moved down my body and hooked around my thighs holding me closer. I was nearing my peak and he let one thigh go and quickly thrust two fingers into my core. "Oh God Emmett, I'm cumming."
"That's it beautiful, let it lose. I wanna hear you scream my name over and over again." Emmett whispered while scissoring his fingers to keep my high lasting longer.
"Baby please." I begged.
"What beautiful? Tell me what you need." Emmett asked.
"Emmett if you don't crawl up my body and shove your cock deep inside my pussy right now I'm going to persuade you to go over to the main house wearing nothing but my panties to get me some ice cream."
"God I love it when you talk dirty."
"Oh yeah, well I'll just take care of myself while you're gone then. How about that?"
"Alright baby you win. Now where do you want my cock?"
"In my hot wet and tight pussy. I need your long thick and hard cock like I need oxygen. Now please Emmett. Please."
Emmett was already poised at my entrance and didn't give me a second to complain again. His thrust was hard and fast and I instantly screamed out in another orgasm.
"That was hot, Rosie!"
Emmett kissed and licked at my jaw and neck as I sucked and bit at his. He pulled my thighs up around his hips and I thrust against him to get more friction. I felt another orgasm cumming and he pushed up on his knees yanking me by the thighs closer to him as he pounded into me. I came again and when I was done Emmett pulled out and flipped me over to take me from behind. As he pounded in me again I felt another orgasm coming and he smacked my ass and told me he was close. As my last orgasm hit it took him over the edge with me.
As we collapsed back onto the bed, Emmett pulled me in close and covered me with the blankets. He kissed the back of my head before telling me he loved me.
"I love you too, my husband." I replied.
"Get some sleep because I'm waking you up in a couple hours for more baby making practice time." Emmett replied.
God I love my man.
