Chapter Fourteen 'Dogs'
Bella and Edward came back down from the stairs holding hands with each other. Alice squealed and ran over into Bella's arms. "You are back," Alice said softly.
"Yeah," Bella said smiling at her. "I am going to call my dad and my mom," she said softly.
"I will make you something to eat," Edward said kissing her hand. Bella grabbed the phone and then went into the corner of the room.
Bella came back into the room and found him making some eggs. She moved him to the side and then went on cooking. "I got it," Bella said with a smile.
"I love you," Edward said kissing her neck and she slightly laughed.
"I love you too," Bella said. "But I am going to burn myself if you don't stop," she said.
"Awe this is sick," Emmett said moving away from them. Then all of a sudden everyone in the room stopped in their tracks. "Dogs," he said glaring.
"Paul," Bella said causing Edward to stand in front of her.
"I will not let him hurt you," Edward said firmly.
Bella nodded her head slowly and they headed outside the door of their house. Tanya and her family were already there waiting for them. "She led them here," Tayna said glaring at her.
"Its not her fault," Edward said growling at her.
"Bella!!" Jacob yelled coming over to them with Embry, Quil, and Sam.
"Oh my god," Sam said looking at her. "Do these vampires have you prisoner?" He asked.
"Does it look like we have her prisoner mut?" Emmett asked glaring at him.
"I am fine Sam," Bella said. "They have been taking care of me," she said softly.
"Paul came to talk to us," Jacob said. "Said you ran off with Edward," he said firmly.
"No I ran from Paul," Bella said looking at him. "He did this to me," she said softly. "He even killed someone because they got to close to me," she said with a glare in her eyes.
"Why would he do that?" Sam asked causing her to look down.
"I don't know," Bella said softly. "All I know is that I don't want to be with him anymore," she said. "He's done things to me that no man should ever do to a woman," he said.
"Oh god Bella," Jacob said walking closer to her. "Why didn't you come to us?" He asked.
"Because he said he would kill you all one by one," Bella said. "And that he would kill my dad and my mom," she said softly. "I had no choice I wouldn't even be here if Alice hadn't come," she said.
"Come with us Bella," Sam said stepping forward and Emmett stepped forward. "We'll keep you safe from him," he said causing her to look at him and he was sincere.
"And you have done a bang up job so far," Emmett said glaring at them.
"Emmett," Carlisle said sternly. "Look," he said. "I don't understand," he said. "Why did you let him out of the bounds anyway?" He asked firmly. 'Away from the control," he said.
"Because he was in love with Bella," Jacob said. "And Bella with him," he said causing her to look down and then Edward gently squeezed her hand. "I had no idea Bella that he was this way," he said.
"I know you didn't," Bella said. "But I feel safe here," she said softly. "But please look after my dad for me okay," she said causing him to nod his head.
The wolves walk back down the path and then Tayna turned back. "She needs to leave," she said glaring at her and Rosalie stepped forward.
"And just who is going to make her," Rosalie said stepping closer.
"Stop," Carmen said. "That is enough Tayna," she said. "She is welcome to stay as long as she needs or wants," she said knowing the pain she went through.
"Thank you," Carlisle said softly. "Lets get back inside," he said softly.
"I should go," Bella said coming into the room.
"Why?" Alice asked.
"I am causing you more trouble," Bella said motioning outside.
"Who cares about the bitch?" Rosalie asked. "I mean she is just jealous that you have Edward and she doesn't," he said firmly.
"But," she said causing Esme to walk over to her.
"No buts," Esme said. "You are staying and that is that," she said firmly.
Edward and Bella went up into his bedroom laying down on the bed. "I still can't believe that you got a bed after all this time," Bella said.
"I just wanted it so I could imagine you lying next to me," Edward said. "But its never as good as the real thing," he said kissing her forehead.
"I am so tired," Bella said softly.
"Sleep Bella," Edward said. "I'll be here," he said softly.
