I'm starting to think some of you hate this story now. I'm so thankful to the people who reviewed, but some of my regulars didn't review in the last two chapters. I'm starting to worry you all just hate this now. That's why this chapter isn't that long at all. I don't think I'll carry on this story either if people aren't into it anymore. I just have no more energy to keep writing for hours if you guys don't like it. So I guess if there are less than ten reviews then I guess this is the last chapter. Sorry guys but I can't keep writing something if all I can think is that the stories losing readers.
Chapter 24
Jacob's POV:
I searched through the texts seeing what they'd been saying to each other. My eyes widened when I saw they were talking about my unborn children and how they were going to kill them while still in Edward's stomach.
I dropped the phone and ran into the kitchen, where Edward was alone, his face planted in the fridge looking for something to eat. I would've found it funny if the situation wasn't so serious and life threatening. Bella had gone, she must've slipped past me without me noticing, or she wanted me to find the texts.
"Jaakke," Edward whined, turning to look at me with the most adorable expression on his face ever. "I don't know what to have. It's so hard picking modern food to eat, I mean for God sake in the 1900's there was no such thing as junk food. We had steamed halibut and shit like that," he complained.
I laughed. "I think I'm becoming a bad influence on you, you're starting to talk like a modern day teenager instead of someone from the royal family from 300 years ago."
Edward frowned. "I never sounded like that. But that's not the point! What am I going to eat?" He asked, his eyes wide. He looked so serious, like this was a life or death situation.
If only he knew how true that was.
I approached him carefully. "Edward … do you know someone called Alec?"
Edward narrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "Yes, why?"
"Who is he?" I said, trying not to look too interested till I knew all the facts.
I was hoping this guy was just some little, weak ass vampire I could easily take out without worrying Edward.
"He's Aro's right hand man and Jane's twin brother. He's got just about the most deadly gift in the world. He can completely get rid of all your senses, sight, smell, touch hearing. All gone. You'd be dead before you could even register anything had went wrong." Edward told me, eyeing me as he spoke.
I'm sure I looked like someone had just shot me. This was the worst thing that could have ever happened. The most deadly vampire in all the world was after my boyfriend and my children. He wanted them dead and he had someone on the inside to help him. Just fuck my life. Everything seemed to get ten times worse just when I thought things were better and Bella had given up her schemes.
"Jake, what's wrong? Why are you asking about Alec?" Edward asked concerned, grabbing me by the arm and pulling me to him.
I held him tight, fearing that any second she could come in here and try and take him away from me. It'd be the most devastating thing in the world to be if I lost my babies, but if I ever lost Edward then I wouldn't be able to go on living. I'd commit suicide straight away without him. He was my life. My soul. He was me and I was him.
Jesus, I sounded like Cathy Earnshaw from Wuthering Heights and the only reason I knew that was because Edward insisted I needed to learn Wuthering Heights is I was to ever have any kind of education. I had to say though; Edward was one damn good teacher. He was patient with me, especially since I was just about the thickest person around. He didn't look at me any differently because I wasn't smart. He loved me anyway and I couldn't be more thankful for the mate I was given.
I hated that everyone wanted to ruin us. I wish we could just be left in peace.
I looked to Edward, who was looking up at me in confusion.
"Edward … Bella isn't who she says she is. I just saw her texting this Alec guy and they were discussing how to kill you and the babies. Edward I'm worried," I admitted, holding him tighter to me.
Edward frowned, looking angry all of a sudden. I should have known. He pushed me away from him.
"Oh God Jacob! I thought this was over! I thought you were done with this pathetic jealousy you have!" Edward roared, throwing his arms about like a mad man.
The rest of the Cullen's walked into the kitchen then, looking concerned as they watched Edward seething.
"Come on, all of you, I'll prove to you that she's a liar and she's out to get Edward and the babies!" I yelled, dragging Edward by the hand into the living room where Bella's phone was still in the exact place I'd dropped it.
I picked it up and scrolled through the inbox only to find there were no messages from Alec there. I blinked a few times, hoping it was just my eyes deceiving me but I soon realised they weren't there. I closed the phone and turned to the Cullen's who were looking at me with disappointed looks.
"They were there. I swear," I said slowly, hoping someone would believe me.
Carlisle shook his head. "You need to stop this Jacob," he said and turned away from me, the rest of the Cullen's except for Edward following.
Edward had tears in his eyes as he looked at me. "Why can't you just fucking trust me?" He yelled and ran up the stairs to his room.
At the slam of his bedroom door, my heart broke. I guess it was probably the worst thing to do by telling them what I saw. Things between Edward and I had been so great and to them it was just like I was the one who was fucking everything up.
I sighed, putting my head in my hands.
I heard footsteps and when I looked up I saw Bella walking towards me. She smiled sweetly, before it suddenly turned into a grin. She grabbed her phone from my hands and began waving it in the air as she whispered so low that only I would be able to hear - "you just don't learn do you Jacob?"
Before I could even move she'd sprinted off in the opposite direction. I sat there stunned. I mean I knew I wasn't lying before but to realize she'd planned the whole thing just made me even angrier. I growled and stormed outside, phasing into my wolf on the spot.
I only had one direction to go in and that was to Sam's house. I needed help. And I needed it fast.
I have 113 follows on my story and 86 favourites.
Do you guys realize if I got 113 reviews on every chapter from all my follows I'd have, by the end of this story I could have 3390 reviews.
Or if all the people who favourited my story reviewed on every chapter that by the end of the story I'd have 2580 reviews.
I don't think you guys realize just how much even a two word review means to me. If I ever got that many reviews from you lot do you realize it'd probably make so happy that I'd end up writing like 10 sequels for you guys? Or 10 separate Jacob/Edward stories for you all to enjoy before moving onto another pairing?
Trust me, reviewing isn't just for my benefit. But it does let me know what you like and what you don't. It lets me know you're still following this story and loving it. So please … please just review and I'll carry the story on :)
