Wow, talk about writer's block. It was a pain to work pass it, but I was finally able to get it done. Once again I own nothing Twilight, but as we all know I love Filthy Edward. Hopefully, we can put some sexing in next Chapter, it's always so much easier to write smut. Lol =) Enjoy and please review!
Chapter 25
BPOV
I clung the blanket to my body and I would have been beat red if I was still human. Edward had his arms wrapped around me protectively and everyone started asking questions. There was way too much commotion it the room. So much so that I could barely even hear my own thoughts let alone be able to make out one person's question from another.
"Everybody shut up!" I shouted and everyone immediately went still and silent. "Thank you."
As soon as I shut my mouth two things hit me. One was the unmistakable sound of a beating heart circulating thick succulent blood and the second was the most vile wet dog stench I had ever smelled. The scent of damp fur filled my overly sensitive nostrils deterring me from the steady heart beat in the room and I found that I had no desire what so ever to taste the disgusting flavor accompanying the foul smell. Turning my head I found the cause of the scent and of course it was Jake. Edward always told me werewolf had a distinct odor.
"You reek horribly like wet dog." I stated trying not to plug my nose and offend him. "What the hell are you doing here?"
"Gee, thanks, Bells, love you too," Jake replied sarcastically and everyone laughed. "Well, I came to beat some sense into Edward for forgetting about you and I happened to run in to Irina."
He peered over at Irina pulling her to his side and kissing her forehead as she let out a soft giggle. Huh? A werewolf and a vampire together, like romantically, seriously? Can vampires hallucinate? Because I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone here. I breathed in again and the smell hit me making my nostrils itch, it has to be absolutely unbearable for Irina.
"Um, that's great?" I said phrasing my response as more of a question. "But what about the smell doesn't it bother you guys?"
"It is great and we don't actually smell bad to each other, how strange is that? She smells like fresh spring rain. Not sickeningly sweet at all," he stated breathing in her hair deeply before looking at me again and plugging his nose. "You however smell like you doused yourself in strawberry perfume."
I picked up the pillow from behind my back and threw it at him full force. It burst in to feathers and we all laughed as Jake spit a few out of his mouth. Jake took it all in good fun though joining the others in laughing once he had cleared his airway of the feathers.
"You vampires better watch out or I'll go Teen Wolf on your asses," he stated letting out a cute puppy bark and the laughter increased. Lucky none of us had to breathe or we surely would have passed out from lack of oxygen.
After a while the laughter finally ceased and it seemed the more I breathed the more used to the werewolf smell I became. It wasn't a nice smell in any way, but at least it wasn't making me want to rip off my own nose anymore. I got the chance to look around the room. Every last person was smiling and not those fake smiles that you use when you're merely tolerating the company you currently are keeping, but huge happy grins that made their eyes sparkle. Within a second of actually looking at the crowd in front of me something caught my eye. Demetri was holding hands with Kate, rubbing his thumb along the back of her hand.
"So, Demetri, I see you made a friend as well," I commented giving him a bright smile and he nodded his head.
"She's electrifying," he snickered and Kate gave him a playful slap as she giggled and shook her head.
"You're such a doofus," she stated and he pouted his lips puffing out his bottom lip like a child. "But you're my doofus."
His face lit up in a grin and he gave her a peck on the cheek making her face light up as well. It made me so happy that Demetri had found someone here. I'm so glad I got him away from the Volturi, he seemed so much happier. His eyes were starting to lighten up a bit from his change in diet and soon he wouldn't look anything like the man I had once found trapped in his own skin. I could see small specks of gold mixed in with the bright red now. It made me wonder how much I had actually missed so I turned to Edward to ask him.
"How long…," I said trailing off when my eyes locked on to something that literally made my mind go blank.
Edward was there kneeling on the ground at the side of the bed in nothing, but his silk black boxers, eyes wide and a grin from ear to ear holding a small black box. He took my hand and stared up at me with those sparkling liquid gold eyes and I swear I could see everything, I could see the world in his eyes, miles upon endless miles of Edward.
"I couldn't wait another minute...," he said rubbing my hand with a smile. "My sweet Bella, I was a shell of a person before I found you, traveling this vast world with no one, but my family for company. Even with them my world came in shades of gray, no vibrancy or real uninhibited happiness. Everything was colorless and I was the epitome of empty. The moment I met you was when I truly started living. You're infectious laughter, overwhelming beauty, stubborn attitude and intoxicating scent has brought color to my life and I can't honestly tell you how I ever survived without it… I want you to be my wife, to provide me with an eternity of color and make me the happiest creature to ever walk the Earth… Isabella Marie Swan, will you marry me?"
He opened the box revealing the most stunning ring I had ever seen. A heart shaped diamond surrounded by topaz gems and set in a gold band, simple yet extraordinary. My eyes tickled with tears that I couldn't shed, my mouth dropped open wide as my head gave a nod on its own accord.
"Yes," I chocked out and I wouldn't have thought it was possible, but Edward's smile grew even wider as he pulled out the ring and slid it onto my left hand.
My need to kiss him took over my common sense and I dropped the blanket I had been holding extending my arms around his neck while I attacked his lips with mine. Thankfully, Edward was quick to think and wrapped the blanket around me covering my body as he kissed me back smiling against my lips the entire time. I heard Emmett, Demetri, and Jake howl in the background followed by three slaps as I pulled away from Edward in embarrassment.
I rushed to the closet with the blanket wrapped tightly around me. I had never been happier about my vampire speed because I was dressed in jeans and a t-shirt in 10 seconds flat, running out of the closet to pounce on Edward only to be stopped by a certain black haired pixie. She captured me in a hug bouncing up and down with excitement as I heard her ramble on about dresses, shoes, tiaras and flowers. Eventually Alice released me and I was handed off one by one to everyone in the room congratulations being thrown around.
It was noisy in the room as Edward and I embraced our friends and family. With all the laughing and talking it was a miracle we all even heard it, but everyone went dead silent the moment a small twig outside broke in half under the pressure of someone's foot. We all rushed to the window. The sun was just coming up and even without vampire vision you could have clearly seen five angry tan men and one very distraught tan boy.

"I'll deal with this," I informed everyone giving Irina a kiss before bounding down the stairs and out the front door.
Sam did not look pleased and I knew why. It seemed that it's one thing to work against a common threat with your immortal enemy, but I assumed by his glare that it's another thing entirely to fall in love with them. I had a feeling this would happen. Sam of course hated vampires because of how he was raised, but he hated the Cullens more specifically for what had happened to him.
Before the Cullens moved to town he was just a regular man happily engaged to a woman that he was madly in love with. Then they moved in and he found himself not only a werewolf, but imprinting on his fiancé's cousin, causing the end of a relationship and the beginning of a life as Alpha to a pack of werewolves. He took his new role very seriously instilling in all of us his hatred for our immortal enemies and drawing a very heavy line between us and the Cullens.
"Hey Sam, guys, what's up?" I asked and I was thrilled that my voice didn't come out shaky as I had expected it to.
I chanced a look at the others. All of the wolves, except Seth, flanked Sam ready to pounce at the first sign of attack from me, the Cullens or their friends that now stood behind me on the front porch. They were just as brain washed as I had been in the beginning, filled with hate and prejudice, but seeing how Bella fell in love; meeting Irina, it had changed everything.
"This is not a social call, Jacob," Sam hissed, he was already in Alpha mode. "You're to come with us. I have spoken with the Elders and we have chosen to bypass you're indiscretion last night as teenage hormones, but you are no longer to have any contact of any kind with the Cullens or their visitors under Alpha command. Do you understand?"
They all turned to walk away expecting me to dawdle behind like some obedient pup. Alpha commands are werewolf kryptonite there's really nothing you can do to fight it, but for some reason I didn't feel that pull to follow that I once had. It disgusted me that Sam was using his prejudice against the Cullens to cloud his judgment. It was wrong to take a werewolf from their imprint and he knew it.
A true friend and Alpha would never do anything so cruel, but he was never supposed to be Alpha and he damn sure was never a friend. I knew that I had denied my heritage by stepping down and allowing Sam to control the pack and seeing what he did with that power at the moment made me want to vomit. It was about time that I put my foot down.
"I understand that you're an asshole," I said prompting Sam and the others to turn around and face me once again with a look of shock on their faces. "Oh, are you surprised that I didn't bend at your will like you expected? Or did you forget that it was my stepping down that allowed you to be Alpha in the first place?"
I heard a familiar gasp from behind me, Bella, but didn't turn around to acknowledge it. I was focused on Sam and his lackeys while at the same time trying to keep the urge to phase and rip them to shreds at bay. I had no clue what I was going to do now, but I knew for sure that there was no way in hell that I was leaving Irina.
"There is only one Alpha, Jacob Black. You had the opportunity to take lead and you denied it so you will do as I say or choose to be a lone Alpha and suffer the consequences," Sam growled and the others growled in approval, all except Seth who seemed torn.
I had heard stories of when there were more tribes like ours. If two packs led by different Alphas inhabited the same territory it would be a fight to the death for dominance. So if I decided to be my own Alpha it would be perfectly acceptable among the tribe to kill me for being a threat to their safety, but if I couldn't be my own person and be with Irina than life would be pointless.
"I would rather die for what I believe is right than live under your command," I growled, allowing the overwhelming urge to phase to takeover.
Growls and snarls ripped from my body as my bones morphed and skin gave way to fur. Sam and the others quickly phased as well and for the first time in four months I was alone in my mind, a lone Alpha, well that was until I heard one very tough young wolf.
I got your back, Jake.
I found myself flanked by Seth facing five very pissed off wolves. Shit! What am I supposed to do now? Fuck! Than all of a sudden it wasn't just me and Seth any more, I was joined by 15 vampires hissing and snarling beside me and I seriously felt like I had one the fucking lottery. Sam and his lackeys took one look at the group and knew they were out numbered running into the woods with their tails between their legs and that's when I noticed their wasn't one voice in my mind, but two.
Well, I'll be damned, looks like I don't have to deal with Sam after all. Never been a fan of Jacob, but I'd rather join his pack than my ex-fiancé's any day. Besides someone has to look after Seth might as well be his big sister.
Turning my head I caught sight of a small gray wolf with a cocky grin on its face. You're shitting me!
Leah?!
Of course it's me who else would it be?
I groaned and shook my head. Imprinted, left my pack, and now I'm stuck with Leah, could this week get any more eventful? I hope not.
Well, I could always disconnect your arm from your body and use it for my own personal chew toy, Jakey Poo.
Both Edward and Seth laughed while everyone else stood by confused as I started smacking my head against the ground. I've never gotten along with Leah and now I'll have to live with being inside her head every time I phase? I wonder if I can find Sam and his pack so they can finish me off before I lose my mind.
"Would someone mind filling the rest of us in on what the hell is going on here?" Irina asked obviously irritated with her hands on the side of her hips and I looked over at Edward walking up to her side and nuzzling up against her. "He really is kind of adorable though. I always wanted a dog."
She started to pet my head and everyone began laughing. If she wanted to pet me I could give her something to pet. I wonder if it's too early for me to get a good stroking. Edward looked over at me shaking his head in mock disapproval.
Well, why don't you stop reading my thoughts for two minutes and get us wolves some clothes, leech?
"Or I could tell Irina what you're thinking, that would be pretty entertaining, dog," he ribbed before running inside, hopefully to get me something to wear, as Irina stared down at me.
"When you phase back you better tell me what the hell he's talking about, Jake, or I'll build you your own dog house to live in," Irina said and everyone laughed harder.
Damn it, stupid mind reading blood sucker!
"I heard that," Edward stated tossing me some clothes. "Hey Irina, did you know Jake here was getting his Jollies off thinking about other places that you can pet him?"
I felt a smack to the back of my head. Ow, that hurt like a bitch! I sent Edward an evil glare. I would have to plot my revenge later.
You better watch your back, Edward Cullen!
I'd stop while you're behind, Jake.
Shut up, Leah!
Liela-k has informed me that it is not nice to keep Filthy Edward all to myself. Whine, Whine, Whine. Bitch, Bitch, Bitch. After much deliberation I have decided to share him with her, so here you go Jelly a little gift from your friend Peanut Butter. =)~ Lol
Interview with Filthy Edward Take II
Filthy Edward: No, liela-k, I don't care if you already have the whip creme and chocolate syrup, you're not making a Filthy Edward Sundae!
liela-k: Don't be such a baby, Edward. I'll clean up after myself. *licks her lips*
Filthy Edward: Absolutely not! I thought this was an interview. Aren't you supposed to ask me questions about the story?
liela-k: Fine, what kind of nasty, dirty things do you have planned for dear, sweet Bella?
Filthy Edward: liela-k! *gives stern look*
liela-k: Well, If you don't want to tell me you can show me. *walks up and places her hands on Edward's knees, leaning over so her boobs are right in front of his face*
Filthy Edward: Uhhhh.... *venom drips out of his mouth as he shifts in his chair*
liela-k: *pretends to trip so she lands right in Edward's lap, straddling him* Oops!
Filthy Edward: *licks his lips* Well, I suppose I could use some practice. Make sure everything works properly. *leans over and licks liela-k's neck before sucking on it a little making sure his teeth are covered with his lips*
liela-k: *shakes up whip creme can behind his back* That's it, good boy. *evil laugh*
Two hours later....
liela-k: Mmmm best Sundae I ever had. *cleans off left over chocolate syrup on her hands with her tongue*
Filthy Edward: I must say you were pretty scrumptious yourself. *lifts one eyebrow as he sucks remaining juices from liela-k off his fingers* Delicious!
LOL There you go Jelly! Don't say I never gave you anything! Now since that's done it's time for you guys to leave me a review. Leave me something really good and maybe if I feel like it I'll write something for you too. =)
