I'm so unbelievably sorry for this long wait! Please forgive me! This period was terrible: school has been terrible (they started scheduling online tests) and I had to study day and night. I hope this chapter will make up for the long wait. I'll try to update more quickly and regularly from now on. Key word, try.

Also: thanks to all of you who are reading, reviewing and following/favoring my stories. It's thanks to you I have the strenght to keep writing!

Anyway, back to business.

As you can see from the title of the chapter, here we'll see the first part of Jasper's plan, featuring Bella and, as promised, Kai!

WARNING! Triggers of rape and abuse in Kai's POV.

Careful when reading. If it triggers you, just skip the part I'll highlight with this (********).

Enjoy!


BELLA POV

You know that moment when you realize you are going to do something that's gonna kill you?

This is exactly that moment for me.

"Are ya ready?" Jasper whispers in my ear. His breath hits my neck and I shiver, but the brief feeling isn't enough to distract me from what I'm going to do.

I nod, despite my rising fear. "Yeah, let's go."

"Remember I'll have to roughen you up a bit, darlin'. You just act as if I were actually kidnappin' ya. It oughta be credible" he reminds me, seriousness seeping out of his every pore. This is a critical part in our plan: if they don't believe us we are screwed.

"I'll scream bloody murder" I assure him.

He smirks lightly, but even I can see that he is nervous. Caius arrives shortly after, his face grave and serious. "The guards are ready and placed. Are you ready?" he asks.

We both nod. "We're ready" I say.

My nerves are shaking, and I'm pretty sure I'll die, but I need to do this.

Our plan is simple.

Go in the camp. Make them believe I'm a peace offering. Go with Kai. Kick his ass. Kill him. Shoot accomplishment at Jasper. All hell breaks loose. Try not to die. We win.

I can do this. I must do this.

While the guards where positioning themselves I was remembering everything Jasper taught me in Volterra. I was right when I asked him to teach me how to fight. The only way I can hope to kill Kai is with using a lever. The only problem is that I have no idea if he'll drag me to his tent or stay outside. I have no idea if I'll have to use my body or something else for leverage.

Now that I think of it, there are a lot of variables in our plan.

I nod to Jasper, and he smiles reassuringly at me. He swings me up in his arms, caging my arms against my ribcage and squeezing me. He swings me around, placing me under his arm, my head looking at his back and my legs free to kick him.

"Good luck, sugar" he whispers, before starting to walk toward the camp.

Here goes nothing.

I take a deep breath and then scream like the devil.

My scream hurts my throat and I'm left breathless. Tears stain my dirty cheeks and I kick my legs, trying to avoid actually hitting him. I don't need a broken foot.

He grips me tighter, growling and squeezing the breath out of me, choking my next scream. "Let—me go!" I grunt, trying vainly to slip from his grasp. I'm not actually trying to escape, but I need to make it credible. He rattles me roughly, twisting his arms so he can hold me in front of him. I finally see where we are going, and realize that we are at the edge of the camp. Every vampire is in front of us, Maria and Kai are just reaching the commotion.

Oh, God, let's hope everything goes as planned.

The newborns suddenly all fall to their knees and bow their heads. They fall silent and don't speak a word. Only Maria and Kai are standing. He seems even bigger this close and I can see his eyes raking my body. I cringe and try once again to wiggle free. My disgust isn't fake.

Maria takes a step forward, her red eyes trained on Jasper. Her black hair are in a braid and she's wearing a 18th century worn white dress.

"Mi Amor, you have returned to me" she breathes out, her voice light and feminine, with a heavy Spanish accent. She smiles at him, and takes a step forward. Jasper mirrors her movement, going to stand in front of her.

They both completely ignore me, still squeezed in Jasper's arms, as she raises her hand to touch his impressive biceps. I try to kick her, this time for real. An inexplicable feeling surges through me. I don't want her touching him, she has no right to touch him. He's mine! She won't have him! I growl at her.

"What is this? Your puta?" she asks, disgust clear in her eyes. I growl again. I know enough about Spanish to know she just called me his whore. How dare she!

Jasper chuckles, and I seriously wat to kick his ass—acting or not, I'm pissed. "She ain't my plaything. She's a gift. For ya and 'im" he says, nodding at Kai. A shudder runs through me.

"Oh, mi Amor, you're so kind. Her blood does smell tantalizing" she says, sniffing me.

I'm not faking at all when I spit in her eye.

Maria shrieks and Jasper growls, pushing me to my knees. "Arrastrada!" she growls at me, her hands diving to my throat, ready to tear me to pieces.

"Wait, Maria" Jasper says, catching her hands mid-flight. I swear to God I was about to piss myself. I seriously thought I was going to die.

She turn her anger-darkened eyes to him. "Why do you want me to spare her, mi Amor? Did you perhaps fall in love?" she asks, a note of disbelief and mockery in her voice. Bitch.

He scoffs, and I hate that he must pretend to be like this, even more so because I know that when he was with her in the beginning of his life he truly thought he couldn't love anyone. "Por supuesto che no, Maria. Ya know me. I don't wanna ya ta kill her 'cause she's a shield" he says, and holy hell Jasper speaking Spanish is the sexiest thing on the planet.

Her eyes widen comically. "This pathetic wimp? Imposible!"

"Ask your friend here. He'll see he can't control this little hellion" Jasper says, nodding to Kai. Oh shit.

I try once again to break free—just to keep the charade going—as Kai narrows his dark red, cruel eyes at me. I defiantly stare at him right in the eye, refusing to back down.

A small part of my mind prays that my shield will hold against his assault, but the majority of it is spewing obscenities at him.

When Kai growls and begrudgingly nods at Maria, her eyes widen even more. Bitch looks like a fucking frog.

"This is my gift for ya, my love. I missed ya and I know how ya love havin' many playthings. I thought maybe I'd regain back yer favor by bringin' ya her" he shakes me a bit, "Yer friend here can have some fun with her before ya change her."

And here we go. The games are about to start.

"No!" I shout, adding a bit of desperation in my voice, kicking and scratching Jasper with no avail. I know my act is working when Kai smirks. Sadistic fucker.

"It'll be my pleasure, Major" he says, holding his arm out to grab me. the objective part of my mind realises that his voice is low and seductive, but the result is only me being even more disgusted.

As Jasper hands me over to him I try to make a run for it, but Kai swiftly grabs my elbow and slams me into his chest, knocking the wind out of me. My face is splattered on his chest and his bulky arms encase me in a hold far more rough than Jasper's.

It's in this moment I realise how bit he is, and how small I am in comparison. My attempts at an escape are now completely true.

He chuckles and caresses my face with a cold finger. His touch is a mockery of affection. "Don't fight this, my pet. We'll have so much fun, you and I."

I shudder at his words. I can barely breathe due to his tight hold, but if I'm going down I'll take him down with me.

As he turns and stalks back to his tent, still chocking me with his hold, I see Maria leading Jasper to her own tent. My skin crawls as I look at him laughing and touching her. I growl and Kai laughs, "Oh, look at this! My kitten can growl! This will be so much fun!"

Motherfucker.

We enter—well, more like he enters and drags me with him—in his tent. He drops me to the ground as he turns to close up the entrance with a thin cord. I look around.

The tent is spacious and clean, without much furniture. On the outside is a dirty brown colour, but on the inside it's a vibrant red colour. There is a table with some worn maps on it, a lit candle, a lone chair and then there is an area of the tent that is occupied by a plush black carpet, a mountain of pillows on it. The bed area. I start trembling.

Oh God, I can't do this. I can't

I jump out of my skin when I feel cold hands on my bare hips. I didn't even notice that Kai ripped what was left of my shirt off of me. Thankfully the bra is still here. He licks my ear and I shudder, trying to avoid throwing up. He chuckles, "Don't be suck a shy girl. You are gorgeous… let's have some fun. You'll like it" he purrs in my ear, his hands roaming over my stomach.

Never mind, I can definitely kill this fucker!

KAI POV

This little human is beautiful. Such sinful curves and pouty mouth. I can wait to have my way with her.

It's been ages since I last had some sex without me having complete control of the other person, male or female.

In my 87 years on this Earth as a vampire, I had never encountered a person—never mind a puny human—that managed to resist my gift.

Yet now that Major brings her to me like a gift.

I admit, I thought I was in love with Maria, but he can gladly have her if I get to have this pretty little thing by my side for all eternity.

I bet she's a delicious fuck, and an even better cocksucker. The heavenly scent of her blood only serves to heighten my lust.

Her breasts are positively mouth-watering, even squished in that bra. Her skin is almost as pale as mine and I can't wait to leave some marks—some bruises—on her tender meat.

I see her trembling as she looks at where I put the carpet. There I bed males and females I consider worthy of coupling with me. She's so out of it she doesn't even notice she has no shirt on anymore. I clamp my hands around her hips—mmh, the right size for me to hold as I pound into her warm cunt.

She jumps out of her skin when she feels my touch, I leer at her and bend down to lick her ear. Her skin tastes as amazing as she smells. Her heart starts to beat faster. I chuckle, "Don't be suck a shy girl. You are gorgeous… let's have some fun. You'll like it" I purr in her ear, my hands roaming over her white stomach.

**BEGINNING OF RAPE TRIGGERS**

"Such a tiny creature you are. I'll enjoy breaking you. When I'll be done you'll be begging for me to fuck you until you pass out" I say, turning her to face me. Her eyes are wide and afraid, her heart is pumping with impossible speed. I tighten my grip and squeeze her to me, ignoring her feeble attempts at pushing me away. I trace the outline of her juicy lips with my tongue, chuckling lowly when I feel her trembling. "Don't fight it" I coo.

I palm her full breast and grind my rock-hard cock in between her legs, moaning at the friction.

Enough with the games, it's time to get real.

I throw her to the floor, watching with amusement as she scrambles away from me.

"What's your name, my pet?" I ask. I want to know everything about her before I claim her as mine. She'll make for a wonderful mate.

She hesitates before answering. Her voice is small and weak, "Bella."

"Well, Bella," I purr her name "How old are you?"

"I'm almost nineteen."

Her voice seems stronger now, like she's reached a resolve. I smirk, "You are very sexy for someone your age. Do you know what I'm about to do to you?"

This time, her voice trembles a bit, "You're going to rape me."

I tsk, going to stand right in front of her, her feet brushing my own. She managed to crawl away from the carpet and near the table where I keep my maps. Is she hoping to escape? She never will. She'll be mine.

"No, my little whore, I'm going to make you feel so good you'll never want me to stop" I say, and watch as a shiver runs down her spine, her tits swaying a bit.

"Highly unlikely" she breathes out.

I chuckle, "You're feisty. I like that. But you'll do well to remember, little girl, that you are now mine. I'll break you into many little pieces and reassemble you whole again as I wish. You'll know nothing except me and my cock, you'll wish for nothing else than to please me and spread your legs for me. Only for me" I snarl.

I rip my shirt of my chest, and my jeans soon follow. I'm standing only in my boxers, my cock straining against the black material. A low growl vibrates from my chest, "You have two options, girl. You either bow to me, or you will be made to. And it won't be pretty. You'll know pain and fear like you've never imagined before."

I square my shoulders, meeting her burning yet terrified gaze. Her terror makes me even harder. "I was born in this life with the gift of mind manipulation for a reason, my pet. As a human I tricked and manipulated many: it was one of the few things I was good at in life. It made me rich and important. Here it makes me one of the most powerful vampires in existence. Yet, here you are, as a human and able to defeat my gift. You'll be powerful too, but you'll be under my control. You'll be mine!"

By the end of my mini-speech we are both beside the table in my tent. I hear outside the newborns training and Maria and the Major talking quietly, but I can't make out the exact words. I focus back on reality when I feel two feet caressing my right shinbone. I look down at Bella, and see her tiny, dirty feet slowly moving up and down my shin. Her right foot is sliding up and down my calf, while her left one is but a mere whisper of touch on my shinbone.

Her beautiful eyes are hooded and dark, her cheeks flushed. Her heart is beating wildly. She leans up on her elbows, giving me a perfect view of her creamy, bra-clad meaty globes. "What's your name?" she asks me, her voice light but with an undertone of danger I find appealing. Finally a woman worthy of being my mate.

I smirk, my hand reaching down and sliding inside my boxers to caress my cock. Her eyes follow the movement. "I need to prep myself for you, my pet. I want you to feel only the best, so that you'll never forget the moment you get to be mine" I say, and see her smile.

But something in that smile makes me stop my movements. Her feet stop, one in front of the other, with my calf in the middle. Her smile is victorious, like she's the one who won and not the one who's about to get raped.

**END OF RAPE TRIGGERS**

"What—" I say, then swing my arms around as I feel myself falling. The leg between her feet gives out on me and I collapse to the ground with a heavy thud. That bitch dares trip me!

I growl and look up just in time to see that whore get up— on her face an evil smile that would scare even Maria—and grab something from the table. My eyes widen as I see her grabbing the candle on my table. I dive for her before she can try to light me on fire.

I catch her around the stomach and with the help of my momentum I slam her to the ground. She still has the candle in her hand and I can feel the flame burn my back as she throws it on me. Thankfully the dirt on my back from my fall prevents the flame from instantly setting me on fire.

I sneer down at her. She'll pay.

I growl in pain, "You bitch! You'll learn your place!" I shout, grabbing her by the waist and keeping her still as she tries to scramble away from under me. Then I bare my teeth and do something I've wanted to do since I first smelled her heavenly scent.

I plunge my teeth into her waist, growling in pleasure as I hear her terrified, ear-wrenching scream.

But no blood comes out of the wound.

I barely bite half an inch into her skin—my venom coated teeth plunged into her warm skin—when I feel something hard preventing me from going further, or preventing blood from coming out. I retract and see that the wound is open, but no blood comes out. A few seconds later, the venom that was on my teeth seals the wound, leaving only a bite-shaped white scar on her skin.

"This is impossible!" I growl, momentarily distracted. The whore takes advantage of this moment. She quickly scrambles away from me, diving for the somehow still lit candle that got knocked away a few feet from us.

I grab her again—this time by her tights—and slam her back to the ground. I plunge once again my teeth in her waist, then her ribcage, then her elbows and arms. She screams through it all, but I keep biting her.

Whatever this fucking thing is, it's pissing me off. Every bite I give her is bloodless, and immediately seals into a moon-white scar. In my frustration she manages to crawl those few inches that remain between us and the candle.

Her tiny hand curls around it, and she turns, despite the bruising grip I have on her.

No, this can't be happening! I won't go down this way!

I make one final attempt at killing her. I rip off her bra—barely enjoying the sight of her generous perky breasts—and dive for the left one open mouthed.

A bite on her heart. I want to mar her beautiful breasts, so that she'll forever remember me. She'll be mine even when I'm gone.

My roar, however, is drowned out by her own war cry. Before I have a chance to bite her meaty flesh, she sticks the candle in my mouth.

Barely half a second passes when I start screaming. I fall on the floor on my back.

The fire is scorching, spreading from the inside of my mouth to my cheeks and even all the way down my stomach. I'm burning from the inside out.

The fire spreads from my intern tissues to my skin. If I thought there was no pain more terrible than the one of the change, I stand corrected.

The last thing I see, before being ash to the wind, Bella—that whore—standing over my burning corpse, her breasts naked, her new bite marks marring her pale skin. She's so pale I can barely see the difference in colour. Her evil, triumphing smile is the last thing I see before my final death comes.

The last thought I have is: I regret nothing, except not having fucked her pretty little cunt.

BELLA POV

Oh my fucking God. I did it.

I fucking did it!

I ignore the ash that once was kai in front of me and the goose bumps breaking on my skin and smile to myself. When he started touching me and when he ripped the bra from my body I thought I would've blacked out, but I had reminded myself of my role in this.

Kai needed to die, and die he did.

But now I'm half naked.

Fuck. Shit. Goddamnit.

I look around searching for something to cover myself with.

My clothes are ribbons. Kai's are ash.

This is not good at all.

I spend another minute looking around for something to cover my boobs with, but then I hear some newborns growling outside the tent.

Fuck! Without Kai there is no one to control them!

I decide that my arm will have to suffice in covering me, and quickly shot a huge amount of accomplishment to Jasper.

A second passes without anything happening and I start to panic. Why is Jasper not doing anyth—

A shriek resounds in the camp, but then it's abruptly cut short.

Half a second later, the most deafening, mighty and male roar I've ever heard shakes even the ground, nearly scaring me shitless. This is not Jasper, nor the Major.

This roar was the God of War's one.

There's a moment of silence—

Then I hear Caius' forces come.

Kai and Maria are dead.

Phase one completed.


How was it? what is that stopped the bites from bleeding? Did Kai get what he deserved? I didn't want to make his death too graphic, but I wrote enough details for your mind to imagine the rest ;) Let me know what you think about the chapter in the reviews!
