War of the Worlds

Chapter 14

Edward's POV

"Today is the day! I hope you're all ready to meet the first naturally born Cullen family member," Carlisle announced proudly.

"Are you sure?" I was a little nervous about be coming a father for the first time.

"Yes Edward, I am quite sure. Are you ready, since the first part is your responsibility. I'll only come in after for the actual delivery, but you have to break the sack. Unless you want me to cut her open and remove the child that way." Yeah…no, I definitely do not want that.

"NO! I will take care of it. Once it's done, I'll call you upstairs and you can do the hard part."

"Stop snickering Jasper," how dare he question how hard I could get. I have not had the pleasure of being intimate with Bella in six weeks. Of course, I will have no problem breaking the sack!

I took a moment to think over everything in my mind. It was mind boggling just how much my life has changed since the first vision of Bella had come to Alice. I was captivated the moment I saw her, everything from her heart shaped face to her sparkling doe like orbs, even her soft chestnut locks enraptured me. Now it is her engorged abdomen that has me entranced, just knowing I put that treasured life in there, was a miracle to me. I decided as much as I wanted to induce the labor, I wanted to let her sleep just a little longer since it was going to be a long day for her.

When Angela arrived with her breakfast tray I felt bad about send it back, but the rules say no food until after the delivery. Angela understood and said she would save it for later. She also said she would be waiting outside so she could be with Bella after the delivery. They have become very close since Jessica left for her training. I was grateful for that; Bella needed someone she could trust as a friend. Her visits with her mom the last two weeks have also improved her spirits. Sam has even gone over and above on his effort to replenish our forest. He now delivers a variety of animals twice a week. I did have a chance to ask him about the pack from Port Angeles and even though he knew many of them personally, he did not know why they wanted Bella. In the end, he had agreed to send a few of the mutts to see if they could learn why. In his mind, I also got a quick glimpse of Leah looking round and happy with the cub she was carrying.

"Edward, you're staring again," Bella had woken up while I was lost in thought.

"Good morning beautiful, Carlisle has made a decision this morning," she looked adorable when she attempted to peek over her baby belly.

"And what might that be?" I could see hope in her eyes as she attempted to lift up on her elbows.

"He said today is the day. Are you ready love?" I asked as I kneeled next to the bed.

"Yeah, I think so. So which way are we doing it?" She wiggled her eyebrows at me.

"The fun way of course!" Like there was ever any doubt about that.

Just knowing what was about to happen had me in my crouch and stalking my intended prey BELLA, if she did not stop giggling I was going to pounce. Okay, so I pounced anyways! She didn't stop her giggles until I lock my lips around hers passionately. I was relishing in the taste when I realized my body was two steps ahead me. Only she could do the things she did to my body. Only problem was how to get to her around her plump center. After a few adjustments, I had settled in behind her with her leaning into my chest as close as possible. This position gave me the best access to her beautiful breast. It felt so good to message them again. Of course, Bella could not contain her moans. Not that I cared if she was vocal, I was so lost in the feel of her against me, the noise barely registered in my brain.

She whimpered slightly when in one fluid motion her nightgown was gone. I was too desperate for her to wait for her to remove the offending piece of clothing. I knew we were doing this to induce her delivery, but there was no reason we both could not enjoy it while we could. I made a special effort to massage every inch of her while simulating her arousal. Kissing and caressing every available inch of exposed skin from her head to her toes. The sight of her body even swollen with my child was absolutely glorious. As I nuzzled her neck, I let myself get lost in her remarkable scent.

When I could not fight the urges anymore, I nudged Bella forward gently. She gracefully knelt before me holding herself up by her hands on the headboard. With a few sweeps of my fingers, I had Bella ready for my upcoming intrusion. I had to keep reminding myself that if we were going to enjoy this I had to be very gentle. With that in mind, I slipped in slowly but was rewarded by Bella when she started moaning my name. That just made it harder not to push in quickly. By the time I was fully sheathed within her intimate walls, Bella was panting and thrusting back at me. I let her lead knowing once she was satisfied I would follow her quickly. When I felt her walls quiver I knew it was time for me to deliver my release deep within her.

"Bella…it's time my love, hold on tight," I warned her before I made three more thrusts and growling out as I did, with one more very hard thrust I heard the cracking sound of her water breaking.

She held her onto the headboard and almost immediately started panting out as her first contraction started. Together we slipped down into the bed and breathed through her contractions. The contractions started out easy and for the next hour grew in intensity. I coached her through every one and cooed soft praises when each one was over. Finally, the contractions were only five minutes apart and I knew to call for Carlisle. I adjusted the sheets to cover all the right spots. When Carlisle was about to come in I heard his thoughts and they caught me off guard.

"What do you mean you already examined her?"

"Edward, please I had to examine her to determine when it was time for us to deliver the child," HE TOUCHED HER!

"WHEN?" I snarled at him.

"When you were hunting yesterday, I thought you knew. Edward, I would have never let him if I knew you didn't know," Bella pleaded but I was already too lost in my jealousy to care.

"HOW COULD YOU TOUCH HER WITHOUT ME PRESENT? And I bet you just loved having another man between your legs!" I knew the minute the words flew out of my mouth, I had shattered her; the sheer look of horror on her face said it all.

"Edward, please listen to us, you're not thinking clearly right now!" Before Esme had a chance to say anything else, I was out the door and running from them as fast as my feet would carry me.

Once outside the house I pushed myself even harder. The whole time I ran towards the mountains, I fumed at the visions of Bella enjoying Carlisle's touch. I could not push it from my mind no matter how hard I tried. I pictured her moaning as he pushed fingers deeply into her. The picture of him purring at the smell of her arousal was quick to follow. I finally gave up running, settled down on a newly fallen tree, and just let my misery wash over me. I barely registered it had started snowing around me. Honestly, it was that last thing I cared about. An hour later a very frazzled thinking Alice came into my area screaming in her head.

"Edward, they're both dying!" I had to have heard her wrong, there is no way Bella and the baby were dying, Carlisle was there for them now.

Bella's POV

"EDWARD, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE US!" I don't know if he ever heard me.

"Bella please, he will come back, you need to let me check the child's progress," Is he kidding? This is all his fault!

"NO!"

"BELLA, you need to uncross your legs! I need to help you!" Not without Edward.

"This is all your fault! I don't have to do a damn thing and you can't make me!" I knew when I heard Alice gasp; she knew what I was doing.

"Carlisle, she's not going to deliver, she intends on working against the contractions. She is not going to push; she is going to hold the child in until it kills them both.

"Bella, you can't do that! When Edward comes back, he will be devastated. We all will be, you are a member of our family. We can't lose you both, PLEASE!" I rolled over keeping my legs locked together, ignoring Esme's pleas.

As far as I was concerned, it was just as much her fault as it was Carlisle's. When they had entered our room after Edwards's departure, I thought Edward just wanted me to have some privacy. I had no idea that he was unaware of the internal exam. I would have never agreed to it. Now he was gone, he left us. He didn't want me anymore; I was tainted in his eyes. He would never forgive me. I had received training in this area. Vampires never forget.

I should have asked before I let him anywhere near me so this was also partially my fault, but at least I was willing to accept that. I knew I would never be able to live without Edward and I if I was going I was taking my child with me. I know it sounds selfish, but the thought of leaving it here with a father who would hate it did not sit well with me. At least if I took it with me I could love it forever.

"Carlisle can you remove it surgically?"

"I don't have everything we need, she would be awake for the whole thing, she would lose a lot of blood, and we have nothing to closer her back up. If I take the child, I would have to change her immediately in order to keep her from dying."

"What about the clinic?"

"There is no time even if we ran with her, we couldn't get there in time, what we need is Edward to come back."

"I'll go find him," I heard Alice leaving, but I had no faith that she could get him to come back. And did I really want him to come back just to save us?

"That's better then losing her and the child," I heard Esme, but I would not allow that to happen, I did not want to spend an eternity without Edward.
