Demon/Jaspers POV

Blood still coated my throat as I ran through the streets. My lighter was still warm inside my pocket and my clothes were filthy. I ran the property of our home for almost an hour before decidin' to enter and change. Isabella's scent was gone along with Char and Peter's. I could smell the burnin' scent of a vampire though, and as soon as I entered the front, seeing Esme and Carlisle let me know somethin' was up.

"I see mommy and daddy have arrived," I chuckled as I walked into the kitchen.

This should be fun.

"Jasper! Oh thank god!" Esme blurted out; her elation at my arrival slammed into me.

"Son. We have been worried about you. About Bella," Carlisle said and stepped forward but my growls at the mention of Isabella had him backtrackin' immediately.

Smart man.

"We've just seen Alice. Her fingers. Oh god, Jasper, something is so very wrong!" Esme said, a sob breakin' through as she stood in front of me.

That was a nice addition.

"You know, Carlisle, Esme, it seems to me your worry should really be placed somewhere else," I said smellin' the air. "Maybe Edward?" I mused, a sinister grin playin' on my lips.

"Tell me, did she collect the ashes?" I asked, as they both gasped lookin' closer at me. I knew they were searchin' for the same thing Isabella had been and seein' the confusion on their faces, I'd say they were no where near as lucky as she'd been at figurin' it out.

Well let's see how they react when they get a look at who Jasper really is.

My eyes darkened slightly at the thought and I sent them both just a small dose of fear. Not enough to knock them on their ass like I would have wanted, but enough to scare them.

I can be a patient man.

I was rewarded almost instantly and didn't even try to hold back the dark chuckle that came out.

"How did you know it was Edward she burned? Or that it was Bella who burned him?" Carlisle asked, as he shook himself out of my lure and again a growl rose within me.

Calm the fuck down.

"Was that not enough for you? Like a little pain do you, Carlisle?" I asked narrowin' my eyes and lookin' him over.

"I'm just concerned Jasper," Carlisle answered as Esme shrunk behind him.

Weak fucking vampires.

"As many vampires as I have been around, as many as I have burned with my own hands, you never forget the scents. Edward's was one I couldn't scrub away even if I tried. Isabella, well she's mine, I'd know her's anywhere." I replied with a smirk as I walked towards the bag Rosalie and Emmett brought with them.

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to change," I said leavin' them both starin' at me with shocked expressions and emotions to match.

Once in privacy, I showered and changed quickly into somethin' a bit more comfortable. I hated the fuckin' clothes Alice picked out for Jasper to wear and for fuck's sake, men are not supposed to wear a fuckin' scarf. Slidin' on a pair of jeans and my worn boots, I jumped out the window to avoid mommy and daddy. I was not in the mood for questions from vampires who couldn't handle the answers and who, in my opinion, didn't deserve them either.

You need to go find Bella. Please, just go find her, somethin' is not right. Jasper thought to me in his cage which I shook harshly.

No, no. I have plans. Isabella is just fine right now.

When I reached the shack at the back of the property, I stood for a moment. Jasper was not one for confrontation anymore. In fact, he was tryin' his best to gain control once again. He hadn't done or acted close to how we used to be and I could feel his hesitation shake within me as I looked around. He'd lost that spark when he met that bitch and I was about to pull it back out of her tiny little body, very slowly. He may not have his balls anymore, but mine were securely in place and ready to be used.

With Jasper locked securely in my cage, I stepped inside, my demonic smile in place and my hands clasped together tightly behind my back.

"Alice," I nodded in greeting; my voice was a smooth blend of deadly charm. I could see by the look on her face she was excited to me.

I ignored Garrett for now. His repayment would come soon enough but my eyes were for the small vampire who was now shakin' in the corner as she watched me stalk closer.

"Such a shame," I tsked as I stopped in front of her. I laid my hand on the mark on her face and smiled at my work.

"I can smell your fear darlin'," I told her as I took a deep breath and laughed. "Not as allurin' from a vampire, but it does help." I continued. I moved across the room and in front of Garrett who was emanating fear as well, but tryin' to mask it with false courage.

"Do you really think you can protect her?" I asked, as I sent him to his knees in agony.

Oh Jasper, you have kept her from me for far too fucking long. Time to play.

Jasper's need rose again and he was tryin' like hell to put me away. Ignorin' his ass at this point was easy. He knew it wouldn't take much to piss me off so he wasn't pushin' me hard, but it was enough to let me know he might want to join in later. I knew he had craved this kinda thing for awhile and tonight, I would give him that taste; show him how it's done and hopefully I won't have to stay locked up anymore.

Not fuckin' fun is it, asshole?

"Now Alice, the dear, sweet schizophrenic ex-wife of the khaki wearin' pansy motherfucker I NOW have to fix. Can I just say bravo to you? I didn't think it was possible to break down a man so much that if he were human, he'd be sittin down to take a piss right about now." I laughed feelin' Jasper tryin' to break through once again; a little pissed at my use of nicknames.

Don't worry pansy, we'll buy you some tampons when we leave. Now go sit back down in your corner and look pretty. It's time to enjoy the show.

"I hear you have answers you thought you could hide from me?" I taunted her. "It breaks my heart to think you'd keep somethin' from me, especially seein' as I seem to be the one who holds your life in my very hands." I sat down next to Garrett. He was holdin' in his screams from the small doses of pain I was sendin', but the growl from his chest was steady.

Music to my ears.

"Jasper," Alice said it so low, I almost missed it. "Please, you have to understand." She pleaded louder to me, her fear was spikin' and her eyes were turnin' darker as she looked at me.

Don't you remember what it was like to hear them beg us, Jasper? You held so much power in your hands and you wasted it on this.

I stood up quickly then and rushed to her side; my hand brushed back her hair and my lips closed in on her ear. She was frightened, shocked and confused as she watched me. She'd never seen Jasper like this; not even in a vision, it was always the calm submissive mate she had her claws on. Now though, his master was out; the demon he held in, and she was gettin' a taste of that slice of heaven and was about to regret it.

"Care to share what it is I'm missing from this Alice, or should I just rip you open and look for myself?" I hissed, as I ran my nails along her throat and watched the venom spill.

So tempting.

"No! Please Jasper. You loved me once, I know you did! Please, don't do this! I did everything for you. We are perfect together, Jasper, please see that. Please don't hurt me!" She cried out as my fingers dug in deeper and she tried to wrap her arms around me.

I really need to shut her up.

"I tell you what, you give me Jasper's balls back and I won't cut you open, deal?" I asked; a sadistic chuckle escapin' me as her eyes widened, lookin' horrified.

Remember those eyes Jasper.

"Just like that. Hold it." I said snappin' a picture for later. "Now, what are you hidin' Alice?" I asked as I pushed her against the wall and looked her over.

Always so prim and proper this one. It must devastate her to be in this dirty shack.

"Please, don't make me, Jasper I'm dead if I say a word!" She pleaded as her eyes filled with venom and she began to shake.

"I keep forgettin' you haven't had the pleasure of meetin' me darlin'," I said; my voice seductive as I ran my thumb across the mark Jasper left starin' into her eyes and she melted into my touch.

So easy.

"You may have been able to fuck with Jasper; spew your weak 'woe is me' bullshit but I can smell it on you, this game you play. I know exactly what your doin', no one does it better than me doll face, and so fuckin' help me if you don't stop. This mark he left; you'll be wishin' it was all you had after I'm done with that pretty little face of yours." I said with a satisfied smirk as I shoved her face away; already sick of it bein' so close to me.

"I know my Jazzy's still in there. I love him, I love you both but they'll kill me." She said, her entire demeanor changing as she sat up straighter.

"You're dead either way but this way you get to make a choice. Slow painful torture or quick and easy." I told her and could feel the grin Jasper gave, agreein' with that statement and just like I thought she tried to break free from me.

,

"Do NOT move!" I growled out, slammin' her back in place. "You do not touch me unless I give you permission to, Alice. God only fuckin' knows where your hands have been and I just took a shower. Now move again and I will rip your head off and make you watch me burn every single piece of your body inch by fuckin inch" I said low as I watched her shrink away from me.

"You could protect me. You owe me that much." She said desperately.

"Actually, you owe me," I said with a devilish grin as my hand left her neck and came down hard on her knee; crushin' it and snappin' it apart from her leg.

She started screamin'; her voice rang around me and I caught Garrett by the leg just as he tried to reach us, tossin' him to the side.

"It isn't your turn yet." I sneered, as I looked back at him sending another dose of pain.

"Now that, Alice, that scream was genuine. Let's see if we can make it happen again, shall we?" I asked as I inched my hand up her thigh and tightened my grip until heard that sweet metallic noise over her pitiful wails.

"STOP!" She screamed, causin' me to growl.

"I will stop when I'm god damn ready and not one fuckin' minute sooner. Understood?" I sneered out a deadly growl as I sent her a strong wave of pain doublin her own, causin her to scream out and I licked my lips in anticipation of more to come.

"I have to say Alice, even that comin' out of your mouth is more enjoyable than when you speak." I gave a dark chuckle as I grabbed her hip, shovin' her against the wall and shatterin' it.

"I wonder if daddy can fuse you back together. I'm sure Isabella would love to have another shot at you when I'm finished." I said, causin' her to growl and hiss together in pain.

"Please! No more Jasper... STOP PLEASE!" She begged as she tried to grab her side. "I'll tell you; just please... make it stop."

"Speak!" I barked out, as I slid backwards and away from her, surveying my damage.

Now that, Jasper, was easy. I mean, look at her. Scared to death and I barely even touched her.

"He's not dead," she said frantically. "Charlie. She's using him to get to her. She needs Bella more than you do Jasper. You think she's your mate but she isn't. I swear, she isn't. I screwed up so bad Jazz." She says cryin' but I could still feel her deceit even if her cryin was real.

"That's one lie Alice, do it again and you will face punishment. Now, what do you mean you messed up?" I asked her through clenched teeth.

"She was only supposed to be for Victoria. I only saw her leading Victoria to Edward. In my vision, she came to Forks and Victoria watched her. Over and over all she did was watch her and that's how she meets her mate. Edward is Victoria's mate; not Bella. She was just a stepping stone for Victoria. He couldn't just leave her alone though. Asshole had to fall in love! Why? Why did he do that? He pissed her off and now everything's changed! All of it! He knew too! That's the worst part. He knew and he chased her regardless and now everything is wrong! IT'S WRONG, JASPER!" She screamed, shakin' her head back and forth.

"I can't see it anymore." She said laughing manically. "It's all blood and nothing. You, me, our family, everything is just... poof! And it's all Bella's fault. If he would have just listened! Now Victoria wants her and Edward isn't going to give her up that easily. He's lied to Bella and to Victoria and he's going to get himself killed! WHY? Over a human who could kill us all! She's nothing but a trophy, Jasper. A trinket they all want. Aro wants her. Edward wants her. YOU! You want her. No one wants Alice anymore. No one loves Alice. You know what's funny? He's out there now. She let him go just like that, over lies. Lies he's told her over and over and that dumb bitch just keeps falling for it." She said her laughter growin' even more hysterical.

"I'd watch how you speak of Isabella, Alice. Now. More." I said doublin her pain for just a moment before she nodded.

"She's not yours. I don't care what you feel. Victoria has claim on her. James got in her way and look what happened. Are you willing to let that happen to yourself; over the scent of someone's blood? She's a god damn meal, Jasper! Look at your eyes, remember her scent. You're the reason we left her in the first place!" She spat out at me and I immediately had her by the neck and across the room; my teeth sinkin' into her cold flesh tearin' it from her body.

"I'm sorry Alice, I don't think I heard you. You mind repeatin' that to Jazzy." I said spittin' her venom onto her face and throwin her back to her spot.

"I'm so sorry! It's Edward, he's done this to me. He made me this way! He promised me he would get rid of her and she's still ruining everything for me. He had the chance all those months ago. He could have just handed her over to Aro like he planned but nooooo, he read how important Bella was to Aro and that greedy bastard just had to tell Victoria. And now one minute they want her dead, the next they want to keep her." She sobbed as she held her neck.

"You need to explain this better to me Alice, before I rip that face of yours apart." I said; my voice was low and menacing. My fists were balled, hopin' she'd refuse so I could use them.

"It's a game now. Renee, Charlie, Jacob. Even Rosalie and Emmett. Edward played them but he didn't factor you in. No, he's not that smart. He knew Carlisle wouldn't refuse him. One word and we would all be long gone." She said as she brought her hand covered in venom to her face.

"And what about Laurent?" I asked earnin' me a low growl.

"He died tryin' to protect me. He is none of your business." She spoke soundin' angry.

"I thought you loved me Alice? I'm hurt." I said with a dark, cynical chuckle.

"I'll always love you, Jazzy" She said perkin' up. "You've tainted yourself though. I can smell her on you." She said as she wrinkled her nose.

"Before I rip you apart and hand you over to daddy, is there anything else?" I asked takin' a step towards her.

"She'll die! Either way she'll die and if the wrong hands get a hold of her, we're over. All of us are over. That is always the same. It's the only vision. Her blood and her. Edward wants to play a game; taste her, nothing more now, but Victoria, she is out for more. Stupid idiot couldn't keep his damn mouth shut. She's not alone either and I promise you she knows your moves. You're screwed Jasper. If you leave Bella to rescue Renee, she's dead. If you try to get Charlie, you're dead. That's not a promise, it's a fact set in stone just as Bella's fate is. You've got Victoria and Aro and they both want her and for the same reason. She's doing nothing but causing problems and ruining people's lives. Aro's seen what's to come and he's waiting. You really think he would just let something so powerful get away? No. He's smart. Edward spent time with him in Volterra; think about that. I think it would be best to just call Aro or deliver Bella to him and be done. He just wants a powerful guard; nothing more, just give it to him so I can have my family back. Hell, hand her to Victoria and let them fight it out, for all I care." She said, as a girlish grin played on her face.

I'll wipe that off your face for you soon, Alice.

"It's cat and mouse. Remember, they are always watching. Edward has his moves in place, Victoria is just waiting and Aro? Well, he'll clean it all up when it's over with and take the prize. This will end badly for everyone." Alice said; almost nonchalantly with a small shrug.

"Where are they?" I asked already notin' which areas to check first.

"No idea. Trophy-mate Bella let Edward go so they could be anywhere." She said as she watched as I inched closer. Her fear spiked and she pushed her back against the wall.

"You promised, Jasper." She said holdin' her hand out like it was gonna stop me.

"I don't remember that. I do however, remember sayin somethin' about how Isabella might want a shot or two in, so I won't burn you yet." I told her as I stood over her and brought my hands into her hair and snapped it quickly from her body.

Sweet fuckin' release.

"Doesn't mean I can't have some fun," I laughed manically as I ripped limbs tossin' them to the side as I went. I made sure any pain that she felt was tripled and laughed when I felt her body parts twitchin'.

When I removed the last leg and her screams finally quieted to broken sobs, I walked over to Garrett and smacked him with the her leg, then gathered up the rest of her tossin' it out the door.

"Now Garrett. If you can fuse that leg to her head, then you're golden." I said winkin'. "If either of you are gone when I return, then I'll find you and burn you inch by inch. It seems Isabella is rubbin' off on me, and not the way she was in our room." I gave a sinister chuckle as Alice growled and I walked out kickin' a part of her back towards the house.

I took off as I heard Esme and Carlisle get up to see what was goin' on outside and followed Peter's scent.

See? What the hell did I tell you? Jasper said; his emotions as high as mine and he was pushin' me faster.

Yeah, yeah. I'm goin', ain't I? What are you, Peter now? Or maybe you fucked that Pixie one too many times and got a vision stuck up your ass that just now popped?

I took off faster then. I needed to get to them quickly. If what Alice said was the truth, then I needed to see for myself that Isabella was okay. Peter's quick and his gift helpful but things happen and even if he tried, I'm not sure he could protect her like I could.

When I neared the bar I made a quick run just around the property makin' sure there weren't any scents new or old. Peter and Charlotte's were strong but the only one that stood out to me was Isabella's and I felt like it was wrappin' itself around me tryin to pull me towards her.

Fuck, I hate that pull. You can have that shit Jasper.

Just as I reached the back of the bar, a new scent hit me and Jasper growled out at me; his strength was gainin' and he was close as fuck to pullin me back down.

God damn it Jasper, just one bite!

I felt him back down slightly as I stopped and looked around for the scent.

There she is.

I stood watchin' her. My eyes stayed locked on her body as she swayed. My intention wasn't to feed when I got here; it was merely to wait for my mate but her scent grabbed me tightly and wound it's seedy finger around me pullin' me close. Not as strong as Isabella's but fuck, if I wasn't hungry again and her blood was just doin somethin' to me. Since Jasper made it clear not to bite his precious Bella, I was makin' a compromise.

This woman's blood was alluring and sweet.

I'd fed from humans just hours before; ravaged a mother and father only miles away. Their house was now burnin' and the smoke could be seen even from here. It was a sight I had been longin' for since I'd made a life with Alice and now it could be mine once again. I could be free to enjoy what being a vampire really meant.

Pulling my hands through my hair I pushed myself off the wall and walked over to the woman, her legs moved slowly to the music as she took a drag of her smoke; nicotine moved across my face along with the booze on her breath. It effected her scent little and only drew me to her blood more. I stood beside her; her eyes were closed and I placed a lock of her hair between my fingers, held it to my nose and breathed in hard.

I spoke two words, "Hello darlin'" and she was mine.

My teeth broke her skin with ease right above her collar bone. She'd made the spot open; easy for me to take. Biting close to the heart was always a favorite of mine. The blood was much more pure; less diluted from there. I drank her in, let her blood coat my mouth, run across my teeth and I pulled hard as it flowed into me.

Her gasps egged me on, she was feelin' nothing but pleasure; not an ounce of it brought on by me and was enjoying it as I pushed her against the wall. My hand laid on her neck and my mouth clamped onto her skin. This is what I craved almost as much as I craved Isabella. I imagined what her blood tasted like; how my tongue would feel on her skin as I drank her. I wanted to feel her, all of her, as I tasted.

My thoughts drifted back to the clearin'; to the vampire Peter and I destroyed. His words had rung through me as I attacked that family. Their blood dripped from my fingers as I lit the fire and tore their bodies apart. I wasn't even hungry as I reached this place but things changed, conversations with enemies made you do strange things and this kill; I needed.

Pain rushed into me as I took the last pull of blood from the woman in my arms and almost dropped me to my knees. I growled out, pissed that my meal was interrupted and Jasper shook my cage hard.

That's Bella. Let me the fuck out. Jasper growled and I ignored him as I tossed the body to the side and went into the club.

It was dark and filled with lust as I watched the men on the dance floor from my spot at the back entrance.

It hit me again and I grabbed the wall for support. My fingers dug into the bricks and they crumbled as her pain rocked through me. Wave after wave and it only intensified as I stood there, Jasper beggin' me to let him free. I held on though. I'd felt pain before, delivered it to many humans and vampires and I was strong as fuck.

"Why Peter?" I heard Isabella ask Peter as he danced with her. I could feel her sadness take hold and her heart breakin' and I instantly grabbed at my own unaware of my own movements until I was almost clawin' at myself wanting to rip that feelin' out.

I felt Charlotte's presence just as I was about to move towards her and I growled in response.

"It hurts doesn't it?" She asked me as she stood just beside me and I growled again in warnin' and winced as Isabella's emotions hit me again.

Almost as fuckin' cocky as me.

"Do not push me ,Charlotte." I hissed out as I turned my eyes back to Isabella and bit back a scream as another emotion claimed her. My fist tightened in my shirt and I wanted to beat on my chest to make it stop. She was feelin' worthless and Jasper's need grew as I watched her.

Let me OUT! He snapped at me.

"Oh, what are you gonna do, murder the entire bar to kick my ass? You seem to forget Whitlock, I have taken many an ass beaten from you and I'd gladly take another one if it meant you'd let her in. Stop bein' a damn pussy and man up." She challenged me.

Do not break her god damn neck. This is about Bella, now let me the fuck out so I can help her. Jasper growled to me; his own fist diggin' at his chest as he beat the bars.

Fuck, make her stop. Why can't I fuckin' make her stop. I can't fuckin' block this. No, no , no. Somethin's wrong. She's killin' us, Jasper; we don't fuckin' need that.

"Keep tellin' yourself and tryin' to convince Jasper you don't love her. You're a mean son of a bitch but that's your damn mate out there. Suck it the fuck up." Charlotte said to me as she stood ready for me.

I'm goin' to fuckin' kill your sister, Jasper.

"Stay out of it." I growled out, tired of her shit and tryin like hell to block Isabella.

"Look at her, Jasper," Charlotte bit out. "Tell me you don't feel that; her hurt? The pain that is makin' her body shake right fuckin' now? Has the pull started for you yet? That ache when you're away? Is that why you keep pullin' at your chest? You came here for a reason and that reason is so fuckin' close to dyin' right now, in your brother's arms, while you sit here bein' a "man" that it ain't even fuckin' funny." Charlotte said low to me and I turned sharply lookin at her. My anger clear as I spoke.

Listen to her. Jasper snapped at me as he tried to gain the upper hand but I shoved him back.

No, god damn it!

"You think I don't know that? Feel that? It's all I fuckin' feel anymore. Her. She's it. Those men, their fuckin' lust is all over me. Peter's protectiveness, yours, that's not shit compared to what I feel comin' from her; for her. So please, do me a fuckin' favor and keep that mouth and opinion of yours to your god damn self," I growled out and staggered as Isabella's pain rocked me again, harder this time than before and I fell; unable to stay on me feet.

Make it stop. Help her, fucker. Let me go so I can help her. Jasper roared at me.

I need to block her. FUCK! I can't fuckin' stop it. I can't fuckin' turn it the fuck off JASPER!

"Stop fightin' it." Charlotte hissed out at me.

No! Jasper this isn't right. We are NOT weak, asshole. She needs to fight this, your mate can not be weak too.

Let me out. DO IT NOW! Jasper growled lowly at me and both our eyes darkened as wave after wave of heartache, pain, loss, and desperation hit us; keepin me firmly on the floor.

I was tryin' fuckin' hard to block her. My chest was feelin' the fuckin' pull and the break as Isabella cried in my brother's arms. She held onto him as Jasper shook my cages. He wanted, no he fuckin' needed, her to cling onto him.

I could taste her tears in the air as if they were on my tongue. I could hear her heart beating loud as if her head was on my shoulder and I felt a piece of me break then, causin' me to growl.

"She's yours Jasper, no one else's and you need to own up to that before we all lose her," Charlotte told me and I felt her hand on mine as she looked ahead. "She needs you."

Torment... irritation... disgust and rage hit me and I grabbed my chest again; tighter this time, growling as I closed my eyes.

I can't fuckin' do this Jasper. Fuck make it stop. She won't let me stop it.

Guilt...shame...worthlessness...hurt. Isabella's emotions were fuckin' hittin me hard this time. I could feel her body shake and her words to Peter were ringin' in my fuckin' ears and I fought the need of my own to go to her. I couldn't do that. That wasn't fuckin' me.

Fear.

It's all it took and I was on my ass and locked up. Isabella's fear. Jasper growled, grabbin' me and throwin' my ass hard into his cage.

You're gonna get yourself fuckin' killed. I growled to him but I couldn't help but send him my gratitude. Not just for taken, because I had no fuckin clue how to let go and give in. Not my fuckin nature, but I was grateful because when I looked at Isabella, my own need flared and I would have murdered every fuckin' meal in this bar just to get to her.

She is yours, Jasper. I thought to him and watched as Jasper stood up and shook himself of what remained of me outwardly.

It took less than a second for our eyes to lock with Isabella's. We both growled possessively at no one and every fuckin' person near her.

I felt when Jasper shifted and that same shift rocked through us as Isabella watched him. I never met a woman in my existence that could shake you. She did though. I'd also never been fuckin' scared before but she scared me. That look; the love he is showin' her against my wishes, it ran fuckin' deeper than anything I'd ever felt.

Reassurance. He sent it to her in waves. Vengeance. He promised her as we stood starin'. Determination. He was lettin' her know she wasn't fuckin' weak.

Affection. Courage. Hope and calm. It all bounced back and forth between them. Need. It was strong as we stood and I watched as darkness shadowed her eyes. I'd seen that; felt it within' myself and now Jasper was gonna have somethin' he might not be able to handle on his hands.

He's hers. She may be your mate but she is my princess, Jasper. Remember that.

It shifted again. Not a buzz but definitely a tremor ran between us and I felt the connection I wanted to fuckin' fight and Isabella broke the ice a bit more when a devilish grin graced her lips and we both chuckled. It was mesmerizing seein' her like that.

"She really is yours," Charlotte chuckled beside me and I had to stop myself from breakin' some part of her, to hand over to Peter as a gift for takin' care of my princess.

Gifts seem good right? I thought to Jasper with amusement and he ignored me.

It was chaos in a single moment and I tried to break free as Isabella's body gave out; her eyes rolled into the back of her head and her body went limp. I tried to growl and Jasper cried out in pain as I shrank back in my cage.

We were at Isabella's side before I had time to register anything but one word.

"MINE!"

I don't remember the words that were spoken to me and couldn't give a fuck at the time. Feelin' Isabella close to us, her heart beatin and her fingers tightenin' at my my chest felt comfortin' and unusual all at the same time and I pulled her to me as the assholes around us watched her body in my arms.

Do not fuck with me.

Jasper wrapped his arms around her even tighter as he moved through the crowd and buried his face into her hair.

Her scent was somethin' new to me. I wanted to bite her, taste her, lay her down right here and claim her and I could feel Jasper's feelin's agreein' with me. He wanted it and we both needed it. He chose to just let her scent calm him enough to walk out without a massacre and she breathed him in right back.

Mine.

It was the only thought Jasper sent over and over; not particularly to me because as I looked out through his eyes I was sayin' it too as we left.

Just one more time. I said to Jasper who smirked and we turned sendin' pain and fear; hard and deep into the bar and the grin grew as we heard the screams inside. Isabella grabbed onto us tighter and sighed into Jasper's shirt.

We got into Peter's truck and everyone looked at each other but Isabella. I could see the look in his eyes. He knew this was the beginning of somethin' big and even if I hadn't have been feared before; I would be feared very soon. Our mate, my princess, was fucked with and people were about to suffer; games about to be played and revenge was to be tasted. I would kill every fuckin' person that got in my way and torture those who stood defiantly and I would enjoy it along side Isabella.

MINE!

AN 2.0: This chapter was the longest yet and the most difficult to write. There were a lot of reveals in this one. If I've still confused people send me a PM or put it in a review and I will do my best to answer any questions you have. This story is not over, far from it. I have to say also that last chapters reviews were awesome as fuck and thank you all for that. You ALL rock!

So...do I hand out the Demon or Jasper for reviews? Maybe Major Whitcock? Hit the button peoples!
