Things are not as they seem. Edward left Bella in the forest. The Cullen's refuse to go with Edward and stay behind to help Bella. Bella discovers her true mate. Also Alice, Esme, Carlisle and Jasper find their true mates. What happens when Edward returns?

After helping Mrs Gerandy when she falls ill at the Christmas party, Esme wishes she could be sick to have the pleasure of Carlisle taking care of her.

When a red-eyed vampire shows up looking for help from Bella, will she accept that she's the only one who can fix Jasper, or will she choose to keep her simple life, without interference from the supernatural?

Now that Bella's met the man she's run from for the past near half century, she's happy. Unfortunately, the future doesn't seem content in letting her stay that way, and there's too much at stake if she stays on the sidelines. [Sequel to General Affection]

What if Bella's childhood was a bit different. Yes she still was raised with Renee but she moved to Forks for just her Senior Year, right before she turned 18. Bella's childhood with Renee was hard and Renee was too much of a free spirit, but throughout her childhood Bella had a Guardian Angel to help her.
