CHAPTER 54

I drew the point of the knife across the back and when I saw that there was blood pooling from the location of the cut. I lifted her hand so that Bella could see the blood. With that she walked over to stand next to me.

"Hello Alice it is nice to meet you, thank you for the clothes and I'm sorry we lost the first set." she told my sister

"Don't worry about the lost clothes as long as you are ok."

"I am now thanks to your brother" she said looking up at me with so much adoration in her eyes that I couldn't help placing a soft kiss on her lips I heard Alice gasp.

"Not a word Alice." I told her with a smile and she drew her pointer and thumb across her lips twisting them when they reached the middle

"Thank you Alice, were you able to bring bullets with you?" I begged her.

"Yes I was able to." she said over her shoulder as she walked to her bag to get the magazines as she made her way back to us, after handing them to me she past Bella a Walther CCP gun.

"Why am I getting this?" she asked looking back and forth between both Alice and myself.

"I have one, haven't needed to use it yet, but I go to the range once a week. You never know when you might need to defend yourself or Edward." Alice explained.

"Alice may I see yours please?" I asked her holding my hand out for it and a few seconds later her Walther landed in my hand. I pulled back the slide and dropped the bullet that was in the barrel and then started to pull it apart to make sure it was clean and fully functioning. After I put it all back then test fired it with an empty chamber and with no magazine; it acted exactly how it should. I loaded the spare bullet back in the barrel then slid the magazine back in place; made sure the safety was on and then I handed her gun back.

"Princess I will teach you how to use it while we are in this town." I told her

"Eddie." was all Alice got out before there was a gun pointed at her forehead. The safety was still on but it would get the message across. I knew that she was teasing me but this was not the time for her to mess with me.

"All right, All right. Edward, can I come to please? As you are an amazing teacher." she explained.

"Please don't call me that name, you know I have an abhorrence when it comes to that name." I begged her.

"Ok Edward I'm sorry." she told me cuddling up to my side which she knew was my one weakness when it came to her, I wrapped my arm around her lithe body.

"It's ok Alice." I said placing a kiss on her hair then let her go, then I looked over at Bella and saw that she was wringing her hands.

"What's wrong princess?" I asked her.

"You were going to kill her over her using a nickname that you don't like. Isn't that a bit much?" she asked looking at me.
