Chapter 26

Bella Pov:

Oh god, I thought to myself, what if Victoria was coming for me? I mean I knew she wanted me dead but I hoped she would give up now, especially that the Cullen's were back. But if she did come back my family and the wolves would be in danger.

As that thought went around my head I felt a rush of tears flow down my face.

Just then I felt a strong, warm pair of around wrap around me and I felt instantly comforted. But I realised immediately it was not Edward offering the comfort, it was infact Jacob. Not that it was a problem but I knew whose arms I wanted around me and it was not Jacob's. I also realised at the same time that Jacob had phased back to his human form and for a split second I thought it would be quite funny for a wolf to give me a cuddle with big hair paws! I was still upset and still crying and the tears would not for some reason subside.

I made the effort to try and break free from Jacobs grip but he only responded by holding me even tighter. I did not want to be held by Jacob, I did not want to be held so close to his "hot" body, I wanted Edward and I decided that I needed to get to him now.

I tried again to release myself, "Jake please, I need to go find Edward, let me go!" I croaked out, as more tears fell down my face.

Instantly Jacobs grip lessened on my body but only for a second, "Bella you can't go anywhere, it's just not safe for you, did you forget that Edward and the rest of the leaches are out hunting?".

"No I didn't forget, I just need Edward and I need him NOW!" I screamed out at him.

I knew it was not my hormones doing the talking, I really and truly needed Edward and if he knew what had happened here I was positive he would want to be with me too.

I felt bad for screaming at Jacob but surely he should understand how I was feeling.

"I'm sorry Jake, I didn't mean to shout or scream at you like that, its just that I am scared, not just for me but for the babies too, and I really need Edward here with me. I know you are trying your best to keep me safe and thank you for that but I really need him just now" I said looking at my best friend with a gentle smile on my face.

I honestly did not mean to cause him any undue stress or anything; I just wanted him to understand how much I needed Edward. Anyway, if I didn't find him soon he would find out anyway what had happened and he would only be angry.

Jacob leaned down and pulled the mobile phone from my jacket pocket and held it in his hand for a moment. He looked at the screen and I wondered what was going through his mind at that moment. Before long he simply handed it to me and said.

"I suppose you had better phone him then eh?"

"Thanks Jake, I really appreciate it"

I dialled Edwards number and it only took one ring before he answered.

Jacob Pov:

Damn it, I wanted to help Bella but it looked like the only way I was going to be able to do that is to give in to her and let her phone her blood sucker boyfriend. I suppose it was not much in an effort to help calm her down. She was not going to get any calmer just sitting here with me and I got to thinking that if he found out that she had been near any danger of any kind, especially around nomad vampires and wolves then my guess was that he would be really angry and there would be hell to pay. So, all in all, the best answer would be to let her phone him and be with him, if that's what she wanted, then that's what she was gonna get.

I leaned down and picked the mobile out of her jacket pocket. Quite a flashy one too it was, not surprising that it was one of the latest models. Trust Edward to buy her the latest gadgets, it's a wonder she didn't complain about it.

I held the fancy mobile in my hand for a moment looking at the screen. There in front of me was a picture of Bella and the blood sucker cuddling together on a settee. He had his hands wrapped protectively around her and the baby bump and they were both grinning happily into one another's eyes. They looked so much in love, it was enough to make me feel sick to my stomach. I had better not let Bella know how I felt, she would be really annoyed. I think I had done enough upsetting her lately and she didn't need it now.

What I was not expecting was the tidal wave of jealousy that hit me. I honestly thought I was getting over her, obviously not. You would have thought that with her being pregnant that I would learn but it seems that I never will.

I began to think really silly thoughts then, how I wished it could have been me holding her as she carried my baby but that was never going to happen, not in this lifetime. I really needed to get myself together and get my head out of the clouds. She is not for me, no matter how hard I try, she is not interested in me and probably never was. I needed to get that into my thick head, it was a hard thing to do but I needed to do it.

I handed her the cell phone and said, "I suppose you had better phone him then eh? "

She replied "Thanks Jake, I really appreciate it" and proceeded to punch in his number into the phone.

I could hear the phone ring, it only got a chance to ring out once before I heard an alarmed Edward speak. He must have recognised the number because I heard him say "Bella love, what is wrong? "

Well I thought, at least he seems to care, which is a good thing.

I heard her take a deep breath before she answered, she was obviously trying to figure out what exactly to tell him.

"Oh Edward, thank god!"

"Bella, speak to me, what is it, your scaring me here" said Edward.

I realised then that she wasn't going to be able to explain what had happened so I took the phone out of her hand.

She looked at me with a grateful look on her face.

I put the phone to my ear and began to speak.

"Edward, its Jacob, listen I am just going to cut to the chase, first of all, Bella is okay. We had a vampire cut across our land tonight, we managed to get….."

"What, are you sure Bella is okay, I said she would be in danger down there and I was right"

"Listen to me will you, Bella is okay, well she is a bit shook up but she is okay, she is safe and unharmed. We managed to get the vampire so we don't need to worry about that for now. Bella wants you to come get her so I will drive her to the Treaty Line, will you meet us there?"

"Of course I will, I am on my way" and with that he hung up the phone.

I looked down at Bella and said reassuringly,

"Bella, Edward is going to meet us at the Treaty Line, he shouldn't be too long, come on, we need to get there to meet him"

"Oh thank you Jake, thank you so much. You are the best, best friend a girl could have" as she threw her arms around my neck.

Yes, it was good to get a hug from Bella but it would be better if it were a hug as boyfriend and girlfriend, but then a guy can dream can't he?

Bella Pov:

I decided that I really needed to calm down as all this stress was just not good for my blood pressure or for the babies. I was really pleased that Jacob had spoken to Edward for me. I really did not want to have had to tell him about tonight, I honestly didn't know where to start so I was glad that Jacob spoke to him. He would probably explain more to him when he met him at the Treaty. All I wanted to do now is get to the Treaty and see Edward.

I needed to be in his arms, I needed to be safe, I needed to know he was there protecting me. Yes Jacob would do what he had to to protect me but I really didn't want him putting his life on the line for me, I was not his responsibility and neither were my babies.

We had climbed into the Rabbit, the little car that Jacob loved so much and had done so much work on to restore it. I was sitting securely in the front seat and we reached the treaty line within a few minutes.

As he pulled the car to a stop I noticed Edwards Volvo parked across from a tree with Edward pacing nervously at the edge of the treaty line.

As soon as he had heard the engine of the Rabbit his head came up and he waited patiently for me to walk towards him. Just before I left the car I had leaned over and gave Jacob a quick kiss on the cheek and said "thank you for tonight", to which he had replied "your welcome Bella".

I dragged my heavily pregnant body from the small car and began to walk towards my love. Well, I think I waddled towards him more than walked due to my increased size!

As soon as I crossed over the Treaty Line Edward leaned forward and grasped me in his arms and held me as tight as he possibly could, given my size.

I then heard a breathless voice whisper in my ear.

"Thank god Bella, thank god you are safe" and proceeded to cover my face in kisses as feathery as a butterfly.

Victoria Pov:

Where was Riley, he should have been back by now, he has failed me. I knew I should not have trusted him. Will I ever learn?

I scoffed at the idea that Riley actually believed that I loved him. How could I love him when I already had loved another, James. Obviously Riley was not aware of how vampires feelings worked yet, he was too new, too much of a rough diamond. He did not understand the rules yet, once a vampire has a mate then there is no other for that vampire. James was my mate and now he was dead, I would mourn him for the rest of my days. There would be no other for me, especially not someone like Riley.

He has not yet figured out that he is no more than a puppet in a game, a worthless puppet in a very important game of cat and mouse. The cat being me and the mouse being the stupid human, Bella!

Yes, I would kill the girl and would enjoy the pain it caused her mate, the one called Edward. The mind reader. They were in "love" ha, how could a vampire and a human be in love, how stupid and ridiculous was that? A vampire would suck the blood dry and what would he have left, nothing but skin and bone. I often wondered why he did not change her, why keep a weak human, unless she was a pet! Yes, that was it, she was a pet!

I had told Riley that the Cullen's were dangerous and they were going to destroy us. I did not tell him the true reason why I wanted them dead. He would not help me if I told him the truth. So as far as he was concerned the Cullen's were an evil coven who killed innocent vampires for no reason. He believed me, how stupid is he really?

I told him that they also wanted to take over Seattle and have all the blood for themselves and that was against the rules and we had to stop them before they got out of order.

I had a great deal of information about the Cullen's and their "pet", Laurent had served me well providing the information on them. I would not rest however until the death of James was avenged and I vowed to have each and every one of the Cullen's dead.

I realise that it was quite sweet of Riley for wanting to protect me, he loved me but I did not love him. He even offered to go and get the girl and kill her for me, she was nowhere near the Cullen's so she would not be safe, she would have been an easy target, hence the reason why I thought it would be easy for Riley to kill her, but he was taking too long, he should have returned by now so something must have gone wrong.

I sat and waited for his return, surely it would not be long now. Once he had returned, the girl would be dead and the Cullen's would be suffering from the loss of their "pet". Yes, this was going to be good to see them suffer like I did when I lost my love, my James.
