BPOV
I saw Jasper and Edward come down the stairs, they were both bleeding, and then I thought
"great and just when he was in a good mood"
I continued to get us packed and ready for the trip to Chicago, and I was instantly saddened, tomorrow Gia and her little girls would have to say their final goodbye to Aro, I didn't know him very well, but the time I had interacted with him, he had been nothing but nice, when I had left Emmett right after we became engaged, Aro had given me a place to live to get things sorted.
"BELLA!" Emmett screamed
"Yes baby" I asked smiling at him, he was pissed off sitting behind his desk, scrubbing his hands over his face, it was his habit when he was trying to reign in his temper.
"I am gonna head to the club and take care of some shit before we go, you want to come with me?" he asked
"I will just stay here and make sure we are ready to go, baby are you okay?" I asked walking around his desk,
He pulled me into his lap and his hand instantly went to my stomach, we sat there in comfortable silence for a while.
"something is coming I can feel it, like I got a big ass target on my back now"
"baby we are going to be fine, I think your just not ready to say goodbye to Aro, you said you still had so much to learn from him, but Emmett you're a natural leader, you just need to trust yourself" I whispered kissing him
"I know babe, this stress shit is just not my thing"
"Well stop stressing, we got our baby and our wedding to plan for, both happy things, everything else will work out the way it is supposed to" I told him running my nails through his hair, he continued to rub little circles on my stomach, we were going to the doctor the day after we were scheduled to return from Chicago, but Emmett and I knew, I was pregnant, we had only been together going on five months, but Emmett got mad when I suggested I go on birth control so I never did.
"What do you want a boy or a girl?" I asked him
"Both, either it don't matter, as long as the both of you are alright it don't matter"
"So what do you want for our wedding?" I asked him trying to get his mind on something else
"Here is the thing and don't get mad at me, as long as the cake is vanilla and I get buffalo wings at my bachelor party, and you put me in a tux that don't make me look gay as fuck, I truly could care less, this is your day baby girl, you get whatever you want, anything you can dream of, you name it, it's yours" he said
"I have an idea but I am scared to tell you"
"Come on Bella it's you and me baby, you know we tell each other everything so spit it out"
"I was thinking about a seven day wedding, on the Disney cruise ship, and our honey moon at Disney world" I said sheepishly, it sounds so childish, but I wanted to feel like a true princess, and what better of a place than Disney world" I said with a smile
"Hell yeah baby that shit sounds awesome, but I think we should do the wedding at Disney world and go somewhere for our honeymoon, I don't like being on boats or ships, it kinda freaks me out"
"Where should be go for our honeymoon"
As long as it is somewhere warm, it doesn't matter, Jamaica or the Bahamas, and I want a jet ski, and a speed boat" he said the excitement in his voice was hard not to smile at
"You know something baby, we should set a date" I said playfully
"Next month, I mean what the fuck are we waiting on" he said looking into my eyes.
"Be serious baby, Alli and I cant plan a wedding at Disney world in a month"
"six months I want to marry you in six months, make it happen" he said handing me the black card, you run into any problems, let Esme know"
"vanilla cake and buffalo wings sounds so good right now" I whispered
Emmett just laughed at me, and got up to head to the club to work, he slapped my ass hard
"Felix is downstairs if you need anything, make sure everything is ready and have him put it in either the escalade of the hummer, whichever you want to take to Atlanta and back home, make these motherfuckers carry everything, I better not hear about you lifting anything" he warned kissing me and was out the door.
I got to work making sure everything was packed, the fridge was emptied of anything that would go bad while we were gone, I was getting ready to call out for Felix to start bringing the bags downstairs, when the doorbell rang. I knew it wasn't one of the family, they would just walk in.
I opened the door and was instantly taken aback, I was looking at the same brown curls and blue eyes as my Emmy, but this was a bitter cold looking older woman.
"Can I help you?" I asked
"Hardly, I want to speak with my son" she hissed
"Well who is your son" I spat back already knowing the answer
"You would think my child would know how to hire respectful help, Emmett where is he, he is my son and I need to speak with him immediately" she said trying to push past me.
"First of all you old hag, I am no ones help I am Emmett's fiancé and the mother of his child, second of all if you had any manners you would know not to show up at someone's house unannounced passing judgment on people" I said crossing my arms.
"Listen you little harlot, my son would never marry the likes of you, he would never even propose to a girl without my approval, so you must be a delusional maid with a school yard crush"
"Your son? Please bitch you hardly even know him, we have been together for close to six months and this is the first time I have seen you, yet I can't count how many weekends we have spent with Esme and Carlisle, he has mentioned you twice in the whole time we been together" I hissed
"like I said sweetie, a delusional maid with a schoolyard crush and when my son hears about this he will fire you, so you may as well get your things and get the hell out of my sons house"
"I'm not going anywhere, look the hell around there are pictures of me and Emmett everywhere, but if you want I can call him and tell him to come home"
"No what I want you to do is get the hell out of my sons house, before I call the police"
"If anyone can call the police it's me for trespassing"
"Hardly, call him and see what he says, he will tell you to leave long before he tells me, I am his mother" she said smugly
I called Emmett and was not surprised when the wicked bitch of the west actually snatched my phone from me, she berated Emmett and then hung up on him.
"You wonder why he wants nothing to do with you" I said
"Excuse me, you have no idea what you're talking about, oh wait until I tell my son how you have spoken to me" she huffed
"As if he will give a fuck, besides how did you find out where we live, cause I know for a for a fact he didn't tell you, you didn't call because you don't have his number, he wants nothing to do with you, or is the stick so far up your ass it's fucking with your comprehension skills?
"who the hell do you think that you are talking to, I have never-"
"And you never will, you don't know the first thing about Emmet, you have no idea what he likes or what makes him tick, your not his mother you're his egg donor, Esme Cullen is his mother, and if you think I am going to let him be hurt by you, you gotta be out of your natural dam mind" I spat, the bitch actually was about to slap me, when I felt Emmett behind me
"She's pregnant, if you put your hands on my woman, egg donor or not, I will put a bullet in you" he said pulling me behind him
"Emmett what is wrong with you, I haven't heard from you in months, you never call or come over, and then you drop out of school, now I run into Esme Cullen and she is gushing about you getting engaged and having a baby, and then this little harlot claims she is your wife, what the hell is going on" she demanded
"What the fuck do you care, you have your perfect children and your perfect life, you treated me more like a fucking relative than a child, so what the hell makes you think your entitled to know anything about me, if I wanted you to fucking know anything I would tell you, I got your number, but I just choose not to call your ass, so get the fuck out my house, and don't come back without calling first, and if you ever attempt to put your hands on my girl again, make no mistake it wont end well for you"
"What have those underworld trash Cullen's done to you Emmett, I didn't raise you to speak to me this way"
"Bitch you didn't raise me at all, you talk down to the people who understood me and took care of me when you forgot I existed, if your so much my parents, what was my jersey number in high school, I had the same one all four years, what is my favorite food, what sends me to the hospital at least twice a year, Bella can answer these questions cause she is my woman, but as my mother can you?" Emmett demanded using air quotes when he said mother
"I uh, well wasn't it 17, and who knows you were complaining of something every other day when you were small"
"it was 64 you dumb ass and I got migraines so bad I once went blind for three fucking days, I get those migraines as a result of a head injury from a football game I was in that nearly fucking killed me, but what the fuck would you know, get the fuck out, go home to your bratty ass kids and leave me the fuck alone, you your husband and your kids are fucking dead to me, think of it as you have two kids, as if I never existed, stay the fuck away from me" he spat grabbing her by the arm and throwing her out the door.
I lost it then, I fell to my knees and started crying, I have no idea why, I fucking hate pregnancy hormones, and to think I thought I was going to get away with being even tempered and having a perfect pregnancy, yeah right.
"Baby girl stop crying, that bitch ain't worth it, we bout to go on vacation baby, it's gonna be okay baby, let's get ready to go.
I thought that would be the last we ever heard from his "family" boy were we wrong.
Emmett went and changed and came down in a pair of dark slacks, and midnight blue button down shirt, I swear I wanted to lick him with he put on a dark tie and his dog tags.
"where is your ring?" he asked looking at my hand
"Upstairs in my jewelry box" I had taken it off, scared that something would happen to it while we were in Chicago
"you truly fucking think that I am about to let you be around those motherfuckers without your ring on, get your ass upstairs and get it on your hand, I better not ever see you take that shit off unless your cleaning, and it better be on you if you leave this house, got it" he said walking up to me reaching around and palming my ass
"Whatever you say boss" I said saluting him and sticking my tongue out.
"Go get it" he said smacking my ass
I put on a pair of low rise jeans and my ugg boots, the weather was moving from cool to colder, which made me sad, cause there would be no more short skirts and shirts that showed off Emmett's hand prints.
I was kind of upset to realize that my jeans didn't fit,
"isn't it too soon for this I couldn't be more than two months along" I thought as I started to cry again, Emmett just laughed at me,
"Baby, your about to have my kid, if he's anything like me he is gonna be huge, therefore your gonna be huge, but your still hot as hell, we will get you some new clothes.
Yoga pants and one of Emmett's huge t shirts, looking at my stomach, I scowled wanting my jeans back. The guys appeared at the door and I started pointing to bags and telling them what was going with us.
After Felix and Emmett loaded everything into the Escalade and we made our way to the airport, Emmett drove away from the main airport and to a tarmac where the private jets took off from, there were three jets, all with the Volturi Crest on the tail wings., there were two smaller ones and a huge one. The doors to the truck were opened by two huge guys in dark suits.
I watched as one of the guys got into the drivers seat and drove the truck into the belly of the largest Jet
"Baby couldn't we have just rented a car in Chicago?" I asked
"Yeah but I just like having my own car, it's just this thing I have" he said with a squeeze to my butt, he put his arms around me and pulled me into his arms
Out of nowhere the lust hit me, I wanted him so bad, I ground my hips into his and looked up at him from under my lashes
"Emmett" I moaned
"I hear you baby, soon" he smirked
All of a sudden it was a blur of activity, Carlisle and Esme along with Liam and Emmett and I were flying with Gia and the girls on the larger Jet, Edward, Ben, and some men that I didn't know on one, Jasper Marcus and a few other men in the other.
I was floored when we got on the plane, it was amazing, it had a living area, a kitchen area, and a meeting room and five bedrooms, the living area was filled with large plush furniture, a huge flat screen television mounted on the wall, there was an entertainment center with every video game system and movie ever made. I helped Gia get the girls settled at the table to color while the guys were out on the tarmac getting everything else together. Emmett was talking to his dad, and you could see the sadness in both their eyes. Gia sat down on the couch, the poor girl looked exhausted.
"Are you okay sweetie" I said sitting down on the couch next to her
"He promised me he wouldn't leave me alone" she whispered
"Oh god Gia I am so sorry sweetie, he never wanted to leave you" I said holding her hand.
"It's okay, girl I was born into this life, I will do what I have to do for my kids, but dam I miss him so much, his laugh his smile, his eyes, his touch, I miss sleeping next to him, this hurts so bad" she sobbed.
I held her and let her cry it out, Esme and Alice joined us on the couch, we were all a big pile of tears.
The flight was pretty quiet, we finally got Gia to settle down enough to try to sleep and Emmett was at the table with his father, they were pouring over various pieces of paper, looking at lap top screens and scribbling stuff down, and whatever it was, they were not pleased.
"When we get back to New York this shit is getting dealt with one way or another, I wont allow that, that's not how I work dad, you gotta hit me with something else cause that shit just ain't gonna fucking work for me" Emmet growled slamming his fist on the table, Carlisle smith at him with pride
"That's my boy" he said
Emmett looked really stressed when he flopped down on the couch, so I straddled his lap and started to rub his shoulders. His eyes rolled back into his head and he started to relax
"Dam baby that feels so good" he whispered
"I know baby just relax it's gonna be okay" I whispered and he kissed me
"I cant wait to get all this shit over with he mumbled rubbing my stomach
"Don't remind me how huge I am getting" I said with a smile
"Your not huge baby, your gonna make me a father, that's a huge deal to me"
Carlisle lit a cigar, and as soon as the smell wafted towards where Emmett and I were sitting, I began to heave, I turned to him, one of the deadliest men in the country and screamed
"If you don't put that disgusting thing out your ass will be skydiving off this fucking plane without a parachute you inconsiderate asshat" and stormed into the bedroom and slammed the door and locked it. I had never been so irritated in my life, not only were Gia and I pregnant, but the girls were napping on the couch like fifty feet away from him. But then I remembered who he was, and I immediately scared, I started to cry.
Emmett unlocked the door, I looked up at him and started crying. He started to laugh.
"You dad is going to hate me now" I sobbed
"Nah he thought you were kind of funny, I did too, that shit was funny as hell, I don't think I ever heard you talk like that to anyone, this kid is suiting you baby girl. He sat on the bed and pulled me down on top of him.
"Was he mad?" I whispered
"No he thought it was hilarious, baby calm down, I ain't gonna let nothing happen to you" he whispered in my ear
I had to kiss him, had to feel his lips on mine. We kissed for a minute and Emmett's kisses became more demanding his hands were everywhere.
"Emmett no, your mom and dad are out there" I whispered as he tried to pull my pants down
"Bella, your pregnant, I think they know we have sex, my parents ain't paying no attention to us, come on baby, lets get down with the mile high club" he winked at me knowing, I couldn't deny him.
I kissed him again this time letting him pull my pants and my thong down, he had a firm grip on my ass and was pulling me down on his growing erection.
"Emmett, baby slow down" I said licking his lips, he was making everything feel so good, I wanted it to last as long as possible, my skin was so sensitive to his touch, he was the only one that could make me feel this way.
"I cant baby I need you right fucking now" he hissed we were sitting at the edge of the bed, my favorite position me straddling him, I loved it like this now, his size made it hurt but in a good way, it burned, but that moment he was inside me when it was the worse was also what I looked forward too.
He easily lifted me off of him, and in a second he was naked, I ran my fingers over his washboard chest and abs, his stomach muscles so well defined rippled under my touch, we were both struggling to breathe.
"I love you baby" I moaned as he attacked my neck, licking biting and sucking with a trail of open mouthed kisses, straight to my mouth where our tongues danced together, I could kiss Emmett all day every day, he was an amazing kisser.
His hands palmed my ass roughly and lifted me up only to slide me down onto his erection
"Fucking shit you feel good" he moaned. The air between us was thick and all you could hear was both of us struggling to breathe and the sounds from our kisses, Emmett shifted slightly it made me break the kiss to cry out, it was so painful, but at the same time it was what I needed and wanted from him.
He turned us over and I scooted further into the bed and under the covers, resting his weight on his elbows Emmett looked down at me and licked his lips. I arched my back and wrapped my arms around his neck and begged for him into his ear.
"Please Emmett more" he could never deny me when I begged, he plunged into me with such a force the headboard slammed into the wall and I screamed, so full and so connected, every time with him was better than the last, he had started to sweat.
"Fuck your so tight, this shit feels so good" he said looking into my eyes
"I love you baby" I said arching my back so he could hit a new angle
"I fucking love you too baby" he said pounding into me
"Unh Emmett I'm gonna-" I couldn't even finish my sentence I just raised my hips higher, but he had other plans, he locked his hands behind my back and leaned back on his knees. I wrapped my legs around him and we were face to face, it felt so good, but there was something more intimate about it. I couldn't explain it, but in that moment the rest of the world just ceased to exist and it was just me and him, in this moment he was relaxed and not worried about work or anyone else, he was just Emmett.
This was different, we orgasmed silently, just watching each other, I fell more in love with him, and I think he saw it in my eyes, and we made no attempt to move, just us naked in the middle of this bed, still joined.
"Emmett, this is home for you, with me, if you ever need to step away from the stress and the drama, this is where I want you to come, I will always take care of you and love you, for who you are, I don't care about the other things, I really don't want to know, but I want you to know, that if you ever need to unload or unwind I am here for you.
He didn't say anything, he didn't need too, I knew he understood, We showered silently together, just kissing touching and carefully washing each other. I got out clothes for the both of us. We emerged just as we were getting ready to land. I helped Gia get the girls ready and in their coats. Emmett and I couldn't keep our eyes off each other, the stares and the winks were making me blush.
"you two are so in love it's is almost nauseating" Gia said with a sad smile.
"You will be in love again someday too girl"
"Who is going to want a twenty five year old widow with three children?" she asked
"Someone who is kind and open minded?" I asked
"Well when you find him, let me know, cause as far as I know he don't exist"
"Gia please if I cant land someone like Emmett, trust me you will be fighting the guys off with a stick"
"Bella your forgetting Aro was my first and only boyfriend, I don't even know how to date"
"you act like I know all that much, just be yourself they will come to you, besides your surrounded by handsome men all day, just pick one"
"You don't understand how this works, I belonged to the boss, and now he is dead, so that makes me damaged goods, I am supposed to mourn him until I take my last breathe, but I am so mad at him, he left me here hopelessly in love and on my own"
"It's okay Gia, we are gonna get you through this" I said
When the plane landed Alice went with Gia to help her with the girls, her and Aro owned a house in Chicago. Emmett and I waited for his truck to be unloaded as he barked orders to the men around him.
"Boss, you going to the compound or to your house?" A tall dark haired man asked Emmett
"To my house I gotta get showered and changed, my girl hasn't seen our house yet" he said winking at me
We got into the back, the large guy in the dark suit drove us. There was also a larger SUV behind us, I tried looking out the windows but it was beginning to get dark and I had no idea where we were.
The car stopped in front of a gate and two guys came out of a guard shack
"Wattup Emmett, how you doing when the window rolled down and another huge guy in a dark suit stuck his head in.
"Nadda Embry, how's it going man?"
"Fucked up, it's fucked up about Aro, finally bringing the little lady home huh?" he said wiggling his eye brows
"We'll see what happens, ey before you leave tonight come see me, I got something I wanna talk to you about" he said
"You got it boss, hey little lady nice to finally meet you, they all talked about the smoking hot brunette that got this assholes attention" he smiled at me
"Be careful motherfucker, I like you so I seriously don't want to fuck you up" Emmett growled putting his arms around me possessively. I looked up at him from under lashes
"You too fuckin sexy, everyone wants your ass, but tell me who you belong to?" he asked giving my hair a hard yank
"You baby, only you" I whispered as the car came to a stop in front of the biggest house I had ever seen in my life
"Welcome home baby" he whispered
"What?" I asked confused
"I seriously hate hotels, but I am gonna be runnin between Chicago Atlanta and NYC so I figured now that we gonna have a kid, more reason to have a house" he said as we walked in. Same story, more large guys in dark suits, I felt like my every move was being watched.
"I feel like I am under a microscope baby" I whispered
"Nah your not I just need to keep you safe while a bunch of shit is taken care of baby, I gotta go downstairs and do some shit, look around, Gia and Alli will be here soon to keep you company" he said kissing me
"Baby is everything okay?" I asked
"No not right now it isn't but I will fix it baby girl, you got nothing to worry about, I promised you I would always take care of you, I wont break my promise baby" he said pulling me into his arms.
"Boss, the dons are waiting"
"Alright Garrett, keep your panties on motherfucker"
"Emmett I love you"
"I know" he said loosening his tie and walking down a hallway
I watched him until he disappeared down the stairs. I got this heavy feeling that I was about to lose him, or something was about to happen to him. I nearly fell to the ground when his words from earlier today came flooding back to me
"I feel like something is coming, like I got a big ass target on my back"
I couldn't imagine going through what Gia was going through, being here in love with Emmett but completely alone, the thought left me standing in the foyer trembling.
"What's the fuck are you crying about now, I swear all you bitches do lately is get knocked up and cry" Cullen asked
"shut up you prick, I was just thinking I cant even imagine what Gianna and her little girls are going through right now"
"Yeah well shit happens, either she'll get over it or she wont, I mean being sad ain't gonna get Aro no more undead than he is right now, so why stress out over it" he said flipping through his blackberry
"Edward can I ask you something?" I asked
"yeah whatever"
"What happened to you to make you such an evil cold hearted bastard?"
"What the fuck did you just say?"
"You heard me, that girl just lost the love of her life, her children just lost their father, her son will never know his dad, and you make a bullshit comment like that, seriously what the fuck is wrong with you, why are you so jaded"
"Bitch are you out of your mind, you know what happened to the last person that talked to me like that, I blew his face clean off his fucking head and delivered the fragments to his mother" he spat
"Yeah yeah yeah everyone is scared of big bad Cullen, well newsflash asshole, I am not afraid of you, I hate you, I hate what you are doing to Alice, and now I see why she is fucking Jasper, feels nice to lay with someone who is at least human" I said
Before I could even happen, I saw stars, he had smacked me so hard I had to blink a few times to clear your head
"Lets get one thing fucking straight, I ain't soft like Emmett's punk ass, I will beat the shit out of you, your nothing to me, all you bitches need to learn your place, and learn some fucking respect, so next time before you speak to me, you better think about what the fuck your about to say, I love my brother Bella, but I will fuck you up, got me?" he whispered in my ear
"Emmett is going to kill you for hitting me"
"No he's not cause if you tell him I will kill you, your not good enough for him, your cute and shit but you need to learn some fucking respect girl"
"what the fuck are you doing Cullen" we turned around and it was Jasper
"nothing dude, why the fuck are you all in my business, man you fucking my girl ain't that enough" Cullen said
"Leave him alone Edward" I begged
"It's okay darlin-oh shit Bella, your cheek is bleeding, and bruised, what the hell are going to tell Emmett, if he hears that Cullen hit you."
"What the fuck do you mean Cullen hit her" Emmett roared walking directly over to Cullen
"Emmett baby calm down, I kinda went off on him, and he turned around and it was an accident" I stammered
"I don't give a fuck if you kicked him in the nuts, no one but me puts their hands on you" he said
His voice was so quiet and so calm, yet it was cold and dark. I felt the temperature drop, I felt like there was an ice storm in the middle of the room.
"Emmett man it was just-"
"Cullen if you value your life, you wont say another fucking word, you going to leave and go stay at the compound tonight cause I cant stand the sight of you right now, you do this shit right before we bury our boss what the fuck is wrong with you"
"I said it was an accident" Cullen said
I"I said for you to shut the fuck up" Emmett shoved him towards the door.
"Now do you see why I never wanted to cover the hit on his ass" he spat as Jasper
"Yeah question is what the fuck do we do now"
"He dies, look at Bella's face, she's pregnant man, you just don't do some shit like that, if he wants to put his hands on his whores that's one thing, but to sit her and beat on pregnant women, fuck that shit I might not have been able to help Alice, but now this shits personal, he dies before I leave Chicago" Emmett spat.
I let out a sob, I couldn't believe that because of me, Emmett was about to lose his best friend, his brother. I couldn't believe that Cullen was about to die
