Hi guys! So, I made a website, and I'd love for you to check it out. It's about my stories and possible future ones. On there are two possible new stories I could start after I finish this one, since it's comming to a close. Yes, this story is almost finished. I don't know exactly how many chapters are left, but at the most seven. Like I said, this one is almost over, and I'm going to start a new one after it. And on my website I have two possible stories I could do; Broken Butterfly or Manhunter. Once you read the descriptions of the stories, there's a poll on my profile to vote for which story you want me to do next. Thank you :)

Laurent's POV

I sat in one of the Cullen guest rooms, trying to make sense of things. The Swan girl, Edward's mate, I had seen before; I was sure of it. But where? And why? She seemed so familiar to me, yet I couldn't place how. Had we met briefly in the past? Or was she around often. Surely not, or this wouldn't be near as difficut. Who was she? The knowledge I gathered from the other Cullens was of no use, for all they really knew was her name. Isabella Swan, or just Bella.

Suddenly, everything snapped in place. I knew exactly where I had seen before. She was with Gregory; his latest prize. Myself, James, and Victoria all traveled down to visit our old friend in Phoenix, and there he introduced us to Bella. From the spark of mischief in his eyes I could easily see he wanted more that just companionship from her. Their relationship had been domed to fail, but she seemed oblivious to the fact. Her face was so innocent, so secure. It was easily seen that she trusted Gregory with every fiber of her being. From a simple glance I knew she would come to find that faith crashing down in the future, but said nothing. Who was I to become involved with another's relationship? Gregory clearly knew what he was doing, so I left it alone, despite knowing it wouldn't end well for her. A few weeks later word reached me from Victoria that she had escaped from his grasp.

Now it all made sense. The way she looked at me. She had already reconignized me. And the Cullens knew nothing of her past; certainly not a topic she would discuss freely. But how had she managed to relocate from the Phoenix desert to the rainiest place in the world? She had to know that Gregory would search for her. If she knew him at all, she would know that he never gave up easily, and always loved a challenge. Surely she's expecting at some time for her to be found. But maybe she was planning on being surrounded by her new "family" when that happend. Perhaps they would be her protection and support.

Whatever the case, it was in her best interest to be careful. Victoria said that he was searching for his half-human, and promised to find her. Gregory doesn't like to be bested, and when she escaped, she proved she was more cunning, swifter, and stronger that him. That didn't boad well. The ammount of time left in peace she has depends on when Gregory will break down and request James help. James, loving a good game, offered his assistance almost immediately, but Gregory refused. He claimed he didn't need James' help and could track her by himself. So when James tracked her down on his own, he didn't offer her location, but merely smirked at Gregory's frustration. It appeared that her parents had taked several procautions to keep their daughter safe in hiding. While touring the world, their carried her clothes and items with her sent around to confuse any unexperience tracker, i.e. Gregory.

This girl, Bella, seemed quite content with her new life, almost as if the other one didn't exist. Perhaps she was wishing it didn't. Maybe that was another reason of why no one knew of her past. If put into her shoes, I would most likely do the same thing. After all, it would have been my life, not theres. But Gregory could be here soon, and the Cullens needed to know insteaded of walking into something blind. They deserved a fair warning at least. Like skipping the details and only the just of the story, that way they won't be quite surprised. She owed it to them.

"What are you thinking about?" my beautiful Irina said while walking over to me. I smiled and placed a kiss upon her lips. "Nothing. Nothing at all." I said before laying back and pulling her down on top of me.

Bella's POV

After much chasing and a few escapes on my part, Edward and I finally made it back to the Cullen mansion. I still wanted to hang out just him and me, but he insisted that we spend at least one full day with the family friends. I pouted, but eventually caved when he picked me up and carried me over his back to the house. Being a little bit less of a caveman, he set me on the ground before we came out to the clearing of his house.

Once my feet were firmly on the ground, I let out a loud huff before taking off for the door. I could practically hear Edward's eyes rolling as he followed me. We both knew I wasn't truly mad, and it would wear off in a matter of minutes. Upon walking inside, I found Alice waiting on the couch. Though appearing completely normal and unaware, she turned to give us a sly smile, her eyes gleaming with mischief. I blushed and tried to ignore her, silently praying she said nothing to Emmett. Our sex life was none of his business, and he would certainly have perverted and shameless comments to make.

To my relief, Emmett was no where in sight. If she had told him, he surely would have been watching the door in anticipation, just waiting to snap his remarks at us, though I have a feeling Edward would recieve the worst part of the tourment. The thought actually made me smirk, knowing if he could blush, Edward most likely would.

We sat down together on the edge of the couch. Edward seemed to be inching over every moment I wasn't looking, forcing me more and more on top of him. When I questioned him with my eyes, he just smirked and kissed my forehead. I smiled and closed the distance between us by climbing on his lap, saving him from extra effort. He smiled and nuzzled his head in the crook of my neck, causing me to lean away, giving him better access. Soon I felt a small trail of kisses going down my neck, making me giggle. Out of the corner of my view I caught Tanya glaring. I glarred right back.

Edward is mine.

Call me possessive, but I was the jealous type. In fact, it happened really easily. One wrong look at him and I feel like pouncing. Suddenly a song fitting my situation popped into my head, and I had to fight from busting out laughing. The song was Friday Night Bitch Fight by Ke$ha.

...Went out last friday night
The party looked alright
Just as I stepped on in
I saw you look at him
Oh hell no
Excuse me, what?
Must be jokin' around
Best leave your pumps at home
I'm ready to throw down

You can go to hell, girl
You better watch yourself
I'm feelin' feisty
Alright
Friday night bitch fight...

It fit, considering I would take her down.

"What's going on inside your head that is so funny." Edward asked. I just smiled and shook my head. His eyebrows furrowed as he looked at me. "I still hate the fact that you had to be the one person's mind I cannot read." I smirked. I loved that quality. It saved us from having a lot of embarrassing conversations and me recieving smug glances. I think I would have gone insane by now if he could actually read my mind. "That's a part of me. I wouldn't be the same if my thoughts were open like everyone elses'. And why would I want to change?" I asked while facing him.

"Don't ever change." he muttered before pressing his lips to mine. I smiled and kissed back. "Besides, that would take away all the mystery." I mumbled against his lips after pulling back. He smiled at me, and I smiled back contently before curling up into his chest.

*****

Somehow, I made it through the entire day. Around five in the afternoon the Denali's left, heading back for Alaska. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy to see them go. Tanya barely muttered two words to me and Edward as she left, and I felt a surge of victory run through me. Edward was still, and always would be mine. After they left we hung out with the rest of the Cullens until ten thirty at night. Then everyone headed to their own rooms with their significant others. I smiled and tilted my head suggestivly at the stairs. He laughed, but picked me up and carried us to his room.

As soon as the door shut we began removing clothes. By the time we hit the bed, I was in my lace panties and bra, while Edward only had his boxers left. "I love you, so, so much." he mumbled while kissing down my abdomen. I let out a soft moan along with the words "I love you too."

If you really loved him, you'd tell him about your past. A tiny, annoying voice from inside of me spoke. I tried my best to ignore it.

Since Edward and I have been together, every now and then that little voice returns repeating the same thing. I knew I should tell him, but could never find the nerve to bring it up. I had made so many mistakes, and it wasn't an easy topic for me. So whenever the little voice would appear again, I'd shove it to the back of my brain and try to forget I ever heard the words. Of course, it's easier said than done. Somehow, it still finds a way to resurface at the most inconvenient times; like right now

He doesn't have to know anything, just that you had a past at all. Besides, if he truly loves you, it won't matter.

Deep inside, I knew it was right. But I was still scared as hell that he would become upset at me, and take back those three words that always brought a smile to my face. I knew my fears were childish, but that didn't stop me from being afraid of them. It's like a little child and monsters under the bed. Even when the parent's checked and has given the all clear, the child can't help but fear that maybe his mom or dad missed something, and it's still under there.

For god's sake, just tell him already!

I sighed internally, knowing it was right. As much as I wanted to think the opposite, Edward did have a right to know. I'm sure if there had been anyone else in his life he would have told me by now, and it was only fair for me to share. Hey, that rhymed!

Quite stalling!

During my internal debate, Edward had relocated his mouth to the soft skin of my collarbone and neck. Once again, I sighed internally, not wanting to put a stop to his actions at all. But I had to do this; it was the right thing.

"Edward, stop." I said while gently pushing away. He pulled back almost immediately, his eyes full of concern. "Are you alright? Have I hurt you?" he asked. I sighed. "No, I'm fine. It's just... there's something that I need to say." He looked at me questionably, waiting for me to continue. "Have... have you ever wondered how I ended up here in Forks?" His head nodded slightly, and I took a deep breath before continuing. "Edward, I... you weren't the first man I've been with."

His eyes saddened for a moment, and I felt guilty as hell. My hand reached out and caressed his face, pratically begging him not to be sad with my eyes. "Did he... did you guys ever..." Edward started, but didn't finish. Suddenly I realized exactly how what I said sounded to him, especially in our own possition. "No! Edward, we never went intamite. You are my first and only." That quickly brought a smile back to his face, and he pulled me forward, placing a chaste kiss on my lips. I smiled back at him for a moment, but that dropped when I continued.

"When I lived in Phoenix with my parents, I met a guy. He was a vampire, like you. After hunting, I decided to walk home instead of running, and he thought I would have been an easy human meal. After I quickly proved him wrong, he began to lay out the charm immediately. We spent enormous amounts of time together, and I thought I loved him." I paused when I saw the Edward's hurt face. He covered it quickly and well, but I could remember it as clear as day. I leaned forward quickly and kissed him. "But I didn't, Edward. I thought I did, but nothing I felt for him could ever compare with my feelings for you. I know that this," I made a hand gesture between him and myself, "is real." Once again, his beautiful crooked smile reappeared on his face.

"About four months of dating, he requested to meet in our spot. It was very simple; a creek with an old tire swing tied to a tree about thirty minutes into the forest." I laughed dryly at my foolishness. "I thought he was going to propose." Edward didn't do very well in hiding facial expressions. This one was disgust, but I could see that it wasn't at me. "But once I got there I knew something was wrong. And when I went to kiss him, he commented on my scent; something he haden't done since the first time we met. His voice... it was so sick and frightening, like a serial killer's. I asked what was wrong, and quickly he explained everything that happened the past couple of months from his perspective. I was nothing more to him that a juicy snack. But he knew I was too strong to kill on a normal day, even though I was half human. So he created the charade. He pretended to love and care for me, so when he revealed his true intentions, I would be too broken to fight. And I was. But somehow I fould enough strength to fight back and escape. Not long after that I packed up and moved out here to the rainiest town in the world, trying to escape others. As my luck would have it, the town just so happened to house seven of the creatures I was trying to avoid. I was afraid to let anyone other than my family in, afraid of the same outcome. That was why I was so cold and bitchy to you guys. I didn't want to let anyone else in."

From the rest of my speech Edward's face was unchanging, making it hard to read. Was he angry with me? Did he think any less of me? I sat their nervously, examining his every move, which was nothing. Finally, I found emotion in his eyes; anger. So much that it was frightening. "Edward I'm sorry." I mumbled pathetically while stroking his face. Please, please don't hate me. His face and stance visibly softened as his eyes reconnected with mine. "Oh Bella." he whispered softly while pulling my head to his chest. "I'm not upset with you. I will always love you, no matter what happened in your past, or will happen in our future." I smiled and softly kissed the part of his chest.

"I promise you if I ever find that bastard, I will shred him limb from limb." he said while stroking my hair. I pulled back so I could face him. "I wish you wouldn't. He's gone, and I found you because of everything. Can't we just let everything be?" I asked. He shook his head no. "He did something unexcusable Bella. He tried to take you from me. What would I do if I never got to see your face? I can't imagine continuing on like I had for the past one hundered years. I need you, and because of him, you almost slipped through my fingers. He has to have punishment." I just sighed and tucked my face back into him.

"Thank you, for telling me. It must be a very hard subject for you, and you have no idea how happy it makes me to know you trust me so much." I smiled and looked back up at him. "I trust you with my life." He leaned down and kissed me, and I kissed back.

"Now, where were we before?" he asked while making his way down my neck. "Right about there." I was able to form before coming mute. Smiling, I laid back and pulled him down with me, throwing the sheets over out heads.
