Chapter 6

And now we sit in the Cullen's living room with the family and a re-attached Edward. I'm getting about three glares and three impressed looks. Jasper just looks neutral. "Why?" That is the very first word Edward has said since I ripped his head off. "Why, what Edward?" "Why did you marry him? And become like them?" "Well, seeing as a, I love him. And b, he's my mate." "But Bella, i'm your mate!" Edward yells. "Pffft. Says who?!" "Alice. She told me she saw you and me, married. And you were one of us." One of them! Just the thought of being a knock off vampire is upsetting. I can tell Nik is getting madder by the second as his grip on my hip gets stronger. I grab his hand to try to offer some comfort. He visibly relaxes and so does the rest of his family. "One of you! One of you! You are all just some cheap, knock-off versions of us. Created by a witch's spell gone wrong. I love Klaus, that is final. I am his mate, I have the mating mark. I show them my wrist, the name Niklaus embedded in my skin and the date we met. "I am done with this conversation and I hope to never see you all again. Except for you Jasper, Damon will meet you at the place." And with that, me and my family get up and walk away. Away from the Cullens and away from Forks forever.
