Previously in Chapter 13:

Suddenly, a burst of lust made it to us and I picked up the pace, fucking her harder than I ever intended while she began growling and clawing at me until I pinned her arms above her head. I knew I wasn't hurting her that much but the need to claim her was now the only thing on my mind and I pounded into her relentlessly. There was no complaining until I came hard as I stilled in her and yelled, "MAJOR!"

Chapter 14

Peter's POV (always)

My fuckin' anger always gets the best of me. Bella would have been surprisingly happy with our coupling had I not yelled out Major's name in anger. He shouldn't have interfered. He should have let me take my mate slow and lovingly like I fuckin' wanted. But, he's an inpatient prick who knew we both needed to hunt and I'm sure a part of him wanted to see Bella, they all did. I just didn't want her first memory of us together to be worse than what it was up to that point, and instead of goin' with the flow of emotions Major sent to us, I got fuckin' angry.

So here I sit, across from my mate wonderin' what my fuckin' punishment will be like a fuckin' little kid. Not that I don't deserve more, but yeah June Cleaver was here scolding The Beav.

I ran off in anger as soon as Bella and I finished. I was goin' for Major and I hit the front porch, naked as a fuckin' jay bird tryin' to tackle his ass to the ground. Major easily threw me off and pinned my naked fuckin' ass into the dirt. Somewhere in the back of my head I knew I shouldn't have left Bella but again, my anger was in control.

Suddenly, Major flew off of me, a naked Bella attached to his body and her teeth embedded in his shoulder. He roared in pain and anger and stood up with the newborn Bella still wrapped tightly around him. Her instinct was to bite, not rip and shred. He walked back over to me as I made it to my feet.

"Get her off of me before I dismember her, asshole!" he ordered as he turned sideways, presenting me with my naked mate. A growl escaped my lips as I approached her because her naked form was wrapped around another man. I knew it wasn't in love or even lust, but that didn't mean she didn't reek of sex and arousal.

"Come here, lil bird. It's okay, he's okay, he's not hurting either of us," I murmured, trying to calm her as I rubbed her back and stroked her hair. I moved a hand to try to move one of her legs off of Major and she jerked her head. The metallic sound of tearing vampire flesh resounded through the forest just for a second as Major growled out the pain and reached back, punching her in the face to dislodge her. Emmett and Rosalie stood silently in the background, gasping as his fist connected with her face.

It was my turn to snarl at him as Bella instinctively let go and dropped to a hunting crouch in front of him growling and drooling, like a feral fuckin' princess. I tried to maneuver her behind me as Major raised an eyebrow, darin' me to fuckin' say or do somethin'. I needed to get Bella fed and he nodded as my emotions changed to concern for my mate. Without another word, I grabbed her and silently backed into the house so we could dress. Major started tending to his wound using his own venom to try and minimize the scarring. Serves the bastard right though, for interrupting my first time with my woman. It shouldn't have been that way. It was our first time and there had already been so much drama and then the incident with Major. I glanced at my mate as I silently helped her dress while she licked my neck and purred like a kitten.

I did take her to hunt, the old fashioned way. The closer we got to people, the more uncontrolled she became, typical fuckin' newborn. I held her at bay while leading her to a human; if I let her go she'd have just tore him to shreds and not got a fuckin' thing from him. I was too hungry to ignore the blood so as soon as she pierced one side, I was leaning over her greedily seeking out another side of his neck. We shared four people before we were sated enough to return to Emmett's home. It wasn't too far out there but far enough that the seclusion provided the privacy we needed for the screaming, temper tantrums of a newborn.

She did that when we returned, totaling "our" bedroom and the clothes that had been picked up for her. She was frustrated with the strength thing and she was just… well… newborn.

Bella was my heart and soul and that she so willingly accepted me was unbelievable. She had very vague memories of her past and really only recognized people, remaining thoroughly unsure of events. There was a silent agreement among all of us that she wouldn't be told about Charlie. Why put someone through that, knowing they'll remember it forever?

My problem was even though she didn't remember, I did. I knew what happened between us, with her father, with the Cullens, and that the wolves were certainly gonna find us, eventually.

She decided that my punishment was going to be a month without sex. I wasn't too worried though; she'd need to get off sooner than that and Major certainly owed me one in that department. Plus, she was a newborn. There were some advantages. Sure, the constant mood shifts and changing their minds could certainly be a fuckin' pain but there were …ummm… bonuses. I smirked with that thought. Yeah, I'd get a bonus for sure, despite my punishment for my role in ruining our first time together.

We found a comfortable routine over the next couple of weeks and Rosalie did her best to get on Bella's good side. Bella was much more accepting this time around and Rosalie and Emmett couldn't have been happier. As for me? Well Rosalie isn't my favorite person and I'd just as soon prefer it if she stayed the fuck away from my mate, but I held my tongue.

As for my month punishment, it lasted all of 4 hours. I knew I wasn't worried.

"Peter?" Bella was waving her hand in front of my face. Wonder how long she was doing that? "Where were you?" she asked, snuggling into my lap.

I looked around the living room and wondered myself 'where was I? Oh, I remember I was thinking about the bastard that defiled my punkin.'

I gave a sheepish grin and shrugged my shoulders. I didn't want to tell her the truth. I didn't want her to have to deal with that shit all over again, and I truthfully wished I could forget the whole fuckin' thing.

I have Bella; she's perfect in every way and there was no way in hell I am gonna fuck this up. I wrapped my arms around my beautiful woman and held her close.

"I'm sorry, punkin. I guess I just got distracted," I murmured into her hair, taking in a whiff of her and her newly improved scent. God, I love this fuckin' woman! She was fine for a second after I spoke but then stiffened. I waited to see if it was gonna be another fuckin' newborn emo swing. Since Major's gift didn't work on my lil firecracker, we had to do things the old fashioned way. Someone was always nearby to help in case she had a fuckin' outburst, just waitin' in the wings for somethin' to go down.

I didn't want to set her off, and I was hoping she was tryin' to git control of herself. I held her still form for about 10 minutes before I began to wonder what was goin' on in that pretty lil head o' hers.

"Bella?" I asked quietly, tryin' to keep the peace. She was a newborn and I understood, or at least I was tryin' to understand. Usually, my interaction with newborns was to train them for fightin' and make sure they didn' kill each other. Havin' one as a fuckin' mate was a whole new fuckin' experience. I can't just beat her up or remove body parts. This newborn I give a shit about.

"You okay, punkin?" I tried again.

"Distracted," she replied in a monotone.

I rotated her so I could look at her and sure enough she was gone. The bat in her belfry had checked out on fuckin' vacation.

"Yoo hoo!" I waved my hand in front of her, calling her name over and over again. She finally snapped out of it and gave me a sad look.

"Edward," she whispered.

I immediately connected the two. Edward had called her nothing more than a distraction at one point. Shit.

"Bella?" I asked, hoping she'd give me more to go on. "He left me. I remember; he was awful. I can see it, hear it, feel it, like it just happened. It hurts so much, Peter. But, I love you. I don't understand."

"Bella?" Major asked as he walked in. "You okay, darlin'?"

"She remembered Edward leaving her," I said, quickly filling him in on the situation. He looked sad and gripping her chin lightly, he turned her head to face him.

"You got a rotten deal with him, darlin'. You have your forever now, with Peter. He's the one that'll always be there for you." He kissed her forehead and smiled. "Get over it already. That was another lifetime." And there was the Major we all know and love.

I chuckled and hugged Bella to me. "He's right, doll. Don' let that memory tear ya down. It was nothin' and Edward apologized for it. He was the only one to support us…" I stopped. Fuck, had I said too much?

Bella looked at me quizzically. "Support us? What do you mean?"

I looked to Major for help, but he just shook his head and retreated back into the shadows. He was no fuckin' help.

"Uhhh… Well… That is… When you and I mated while you were still human, the Cullens weren't very supportive. They wanted you with Edward. He was the only one to agree with me that we were mates at first. Eventually though, they all came around. No big deal, just took a little convincin'." I gave her an award winning smile and she returned it.

If I'm honest, I hated fuckin' lying to her, but does she really need the heart ache? No. No one does. And it worries me that she was able to so vividly remember that incident from her human days.

"So where is everyone else? Why aren't they all here?" she asked. Damn fine question. Fuck!

"Well, I was gonna have ta tell ya sooner or later, doll. Carlisle, Esme, and Alice… well we don' really have much to do with them. Major hates Alice and well, Carlisle called the wolves to come and get you while you were in the hospital. They're sure to track us here eventually and I'm sure they aren't gonna be happy when they find out you've been changed." There I said it, the abridged version anyhow. Just call me Webster.

She stared at me briefly with her eyes squinted, I assume trying to remember somethin', anything.

"So, what happens when the wolves get here? Who are the wolves, anyhow? And why was I in the hospital, Peter? " Damn, she really did have no memory.

"They're fuckin' parasites that we just need to rid ourselves of, that's who," said Major as he conveniently returned to the room, thankfully avoiding the second half of her question. Guess he wanted to be a part of this fuckin' conversation.

"Kill them? But why? Why do they care that I've been changed?" Again she paused and looked deep in thought.

The next thing I knew Bella's hand was finishing its sharp path across my face. "You attacked me!" she said loudly.

"Yup," Major chuckled.

I did my best fish impression for a moment, tryin' to decide if I should apologize or what. I guess I waited too long because her hand came back the other way across my other cheek. It stung; my newborn still needed to learn to control her strength. Okay, it really fuckin' hurt and my brains felt like they were rattlin' around inside my head.

And again before I could respond, Major was tacklin' her to the ground as she began her latest newborn hissy fit. The coffee table was no more at this point and I was immediately wrestlin' Major to get off my woman!

"Fine!" he yelled stormin' out and leaving me to deal with-

"Owwww! Fuck!" I pulled her jaw down, removing her teeth from my arm. Well, that shouldn't have surprised me, but it did. "Fuck, fuck, fuck," I griped as I continued to pin the thrashing and overly strong Bella to the ground. "Fuckin' newborn," I muttered and I didn't care if she heard me. She needed to get a serious grip. I really wanted to turn her over my knee.

Major's chuckles floated from upstairs and I mentally gave him the finger since I wasn't capable of much more just then.

The days went by quickly and every day was the day I thought the wolves would come knocking at our door. I strategically learned to dodge Bella's questions by distracting her with information from my past, from well any past really, since she's a fuckin' history nut. I think she figures that we'll eventually get to her history. Not if I have anything to do with it though.

Rosalie and Bella were gettin' along well and I'm glad she had that friendship, but I really didn't like Rosalie. I took to hanging out with Emmett most of the time when those two were together and though Major was always lurking in the shadows like a fuckin' vampire, he's still around, never showin' up unless needed, never puttin' his two cents in unless he wanted to, and never really acknowledgin' the rest of us in the house. I couldn't quite figure out what his deal was. He was not actin' normal and he just smirked when anyone asked about his odd behaviors. I even went so far as to accuse him of bein' in love with a glory hole somewhere in the house, though we never actually heard him take care of that particular need either.

We hadn't heard from any of the Cullens and as far as I knew Emmett and Rosalie just told them they were goin' on a vacation. So they didn't even know Bella had been changed, wasn't in the hospital, or-

Major's phone rang as I sat musing about the situation we were all in while I was stroking my mate's hair, listening to her purr. It was one of those terrific moments where Bella was in what I call "needy mode". It wasn't a normal newborn thing; she needed to constantly be reassured of my love for her. I'm worried this might be something left over from her human life, but I was sure as hell not openin' that fuckin' can of worms. I'd rather go fishin' with a twinkie and those things freak me the fuck out.

The phone call was Carlisle checking to see how Bella was doing in the hospital. Really? I know he's just diggin' for details, probably our location and I whispered as much to Major. He acknowledged me and continued with the conversation.

"Sorry, Carlisle. You're tryin' to send the wolves to us and it's just not gonna work. I'm sure the Volturi will be interested to hear you've turned on your own kind and are workin' with our sworn enemy," Major sneered and hung up the phone.

"Volturi?" Bella asked. "What's that?" I watched as her eyes glossed over, much like the freaky small fry that Jasper married, and waited for her to return. We all stared at each other, wonderin' what was goin' on. I had a fuckin' clue though and it worried me every fuckin' time this happened. With it came perfect recall from her human life. She knew about the Volturi as a human? I was puzzled and waited patiently.

"Oh," she finally said and looked around the room. "The vampire royalty. They enforce the law to keep our kind a secret," she said in a monotone as if she was repeating what she heard in the conversation before her eyes finally settled on me and my Bella settled back into herself. That was the only way to describe it. It was freaky and wrong and I'm not sure what to think about it other than it almost like she was having an out of body experience or some weird fuckin' thing.

"Yes, that's who they are and what they do. How do you know that, sweetheart?" I was puzzled and rubbed her arm gently, trying to get her lovely purr back. When she purred all was right in the world, it's the only noise I ever wanna hear.

"Edward told me once, before my birthday. He said he'd go to them and beg for death if he ever lost me." She jumped and looked around. "Is he okay? Is he with them?" She was nearly hysterical and I began licking along her neck and purring for her as Emmett answered her questions.

"He's fine, Bells. He's still with Carlisle, or at least he was when we left last month. He's even a little bit happier after having known you and now knowing you have Peter. He's just fine, no worries." He grinned and wrapped an arm around Rosalie.

Major's head whipped towards the door as he let loose a snarl. I couldn't smell anyone but I could certainly hear the car coming down the gravel road, our gravel road. I wrapped my arms securely around Bella since we didn't know what to expect and Major led the other three to the door to investigate.
