Chapter twelve – A Strange New Life.

Once inside the castle's grey stone walls, Bella stared around her in awe. It looked exactly as if no one had touched or indeed changed anything in four hundred years. Which was probably true.

Jasper lowered her gently to her unsteady feet and grinned at her expression. Usually stoic, Jasper was moved by her expressiveness; her pure joy in her new surroundings were obvious.

"So, what do you think, Isabella?" Jasper enthused, even though he could read her emotions easily.

Bella watched as Edward ran around the room at vampire speed, his body a blur while he was lighting all the wall sconces; there appeared to be no electricity in this antique dwelling.

"Its…its amazing!" Bella said at last, she felt more than a little discombobulated as tiredness overwhelmed her. "I feel as though I have stepped back in time!"

"She thinks its fucking awesome, if you must know, she loves it almost as much as she loves us." Edward joked, an impish expression on his angelically handsome face.

Bella stared at him some irritation showing through her tiredness, "I thought you didn't like simply reading my mind, Edward. Didn't it make your existence tiresome?"

At her expression of disgust Edward laughed loudly, the sound echoing through the huge room. "How well you remember what I say, my dear Bella! But sometimes when ones mate is too tired or shy to fully speak her mind – I step in to help."

He ghosted to her side and framed her face with both his hands at once; ice coldness permeated her skin, causing a shiver to ripple along her spine pleasurably. As always the scent coming off their skins drove her insane with want. As Edward touched his lips to hers, slowly and deliciously, Bella moaned in need pulling him closer and running her fingers through his beautifully untidy bronze hair.

"I think that we should take Bella up to her room, don't you Edward?" Jasper said pointedly. "She must be exhausted."

Edward chuckled against her lips, releasing her gently; she swayed again, dangerously close to complete exhaustion. "Once again, our Lord and master speaks and we must obey, is it not so, Bella?" He asked jokingly, even as he reached for her to lift her tired body in his arms. Jasper's leadership could not be denied, both Edward and Bella felt it keenly. Although Bella would not feel his leadership completely until she was fully a vampire. Within a mated trio there was always a leader and that was undoubtedly Jasper.

A small nod was Edward's answer as he walked at human pace up the stairs, allowing Bella to take in some of the castle.

The massive stairs, honed out of pure granite by the looks of them, curved slightly as they swept to the upper levels of the mansion. Paintings hung along the walls, filled with aristocratic faces, some bigger than a normal sized house's walls. Bella gasped and sat up as her weary eyes came to rest of a picture of Jasper himself. She sat upright in Edwards arms staring in wonder at a very human Jasper astride a huge inky black battle horse, armour gracing his impressive musculature, visor pushed back revealing deep blue eyes and the handsome face she knew so well.

So, his eyes had been blue.

The brush strokes gracing the aged canvas were those of a true master, the paint itself aged and the colour tempered slightly; it must be ancient and yet it was Jasper. How old was he, she wondered, her mind reeling.

"Yes it is Jasper," Edward replied to her silent mental question. "This is his home."

"How long?" Bella managed, her voice raspy as she tried to wrap her head around that many years…several lifetimes lived by one of the men she loved.

"He lived here as a human, until he was a young man of approximately thirty years. Undefeated in battle he was renowned for his poweress on the battlefield and in the ladies beds until he met one adversary he couldn't defeat – a vampire. She took his humanity and his purpose and gave him a new life. The year was 1263." Edward explained his deeply red eyes fixed onto Jasper's face, while a small smile hovered around the edges of his lips. "Jasper can tell you the rest." He finished. "One day."

Bella's eyes shifted towards Jasper and she smiled, her tired, pale face filled with admiration. "I can't wait." She said softly. "You are amazing, Jasper."

The love and pride she gave off were pleasing to both of her lovers. Jasper, silent until now, walked forwards and pressed an impassioned kiss onto her lips. Edward still held her, his head leaning towards Jasper until their heads touched while he kissed their mate.

Once released Bella's mind began to work in earnest. "When did you meet Edward?"

A soft chuckled escaped Jasper as he kissed her temple before stepping back reluctantly.

"You need your rest, Isabella, I will tell you the story as soon as you are rested and strong."

Bella sighed, knowing the truth of his words but her tone martyred. "Okay. Take me to bed." She said.

At their jointly humorous expressions she paused and actually blushed. "I meant to sleep."

Edward continued his trek up the stairs laughing naughtily. "Tomorrow, Bella. For tonight we are happy to watch over you while you sleep."

He walked along the long semi dark corridors until he reached a huge, ornately carved door, which looked like it weighed a tonne. Jasper pushed it open to reveal a beautifully appointed bedroom, the furnishings old but well kept. The bed was on a raised dais in the centre of the chamber, four posted and hung with curtains, it was an entire room in its self. Twice the size of what the modern world would call a king size bed, it looked as if it had been built to house a king.

The drapes were a royal blue, thick velvet hand crafted and extremely heavy. The bedclothes were silk, the blankets woven out of the finest wool.

Bella was speechless; she simply stared, her eyes darting around the room taking in each detail hungrily.

"Is this your room?" she asked at last just as Edward deposited her on the edge of the massive bed.

Edward laughed again, obviously finding her reactions delightful. "It was and still is Jasper's chamber. We don't use it normally but now, we shall use it, to be with you."

The innuendo in his voice was obvious and Bella blushed again.

Jasper smirked at her as he shrugged off his leather jacket, revealing perfect muscles and a rippling, hard stomach; easily visible through the thin black t-shirt he wore. His dark jeans clung to his thighs and ass like a second skin. He raked his golden hair off his forehead before walking slowly towards Bella, stopping an inch from her, he reached down and kissed her, His predatory and lethal eyes boring into hers as he thrust his tongue deeply into her mouth, his sharp teeth grazed her flesh and she whimpered in desire and she clung to his shoulders.

"Goodnight, sweet Bella." He whispered against her lips as he pushed he backwards onto the silky sheets, her head coming to rest on a plump pillow. Jasper then pulled a thick blanket over her fully clothed body.

As if by magic her tired eyes drooped closed and a smile touched her full lips. "Goodnight, my love." She said too softly for human ears to hear as she drifted off to sleep.

Her vampires grinned at one another as they settled in to watch over their precious human while she slept.

It was the first time that she had called either of them by that particular endearment. It made them both happy, filling the darkness of their existences with a warming glow. They were content.

…..

The morning light touched her face as she slept, stirring her consciousness to wakefulness with gentle persuasion.

Her eyelashes fluttered like butterflies wings as her eyelids opened to reveal her lovely dark brown eyes. Confusion lit their depths to begin with as they surveyed the unfamiliar room with curiosity. Too many mornings lately she had awoken to strange surroundings, so it no longer frightened her to find herself in a strange room.

"Good morning princess." A deep voice said right above her ear.

A slow, lazy smile spread across her face as she reached up languidly to capture the source of that delicious voice. Her hands encountered fairly short hair and she realized somewhat belatedly that she had known who was besides her as soon as she woke up, the scent of his skin was that familiar now. The cut of his hair had only confirmed it.

Edward wrapped her in her arms tightly, his nose buried in her tangled hair.

"Would you like me to draw you a bath?" he asked softly as he sucked the tender skin on the side of her neck into his mouth, deliberately grazing the skin with his sharp fangs.

Her moan of pleasure was an answer, but not to the vocalised question. Edward for once was without humour as he thrust his granite like hardness against her softness. The proof of his arousal was nudging her ass as he thrust his hips against her delicately. Cold breath brushed her sleep-warmed flesh and she shivered wantonly, stretching against her lover encouragingly.

Desire made Bella's head fuzzy as the scent of his body drove all thoughts from her mind.

"Do you want me, sweet girl?" His wonderfully smooth voice asked, like the proverbial devil on her shoulder. "I want you, Bella, to ride me again. I want to feel your warm pussy wrapped around my cock and I want to suckle on your breasts like the starving man I am." His snake like tongue darted out and traced the shell like crevice of her ear, before sucking the fleshy lobe into his mouth and laving it thoroughly. "You are so fucking delicious, my mate. I want to just eat you."

Deftly sliding her out of her crumpled trousers and t-shirt, he then made short work of her underwear. Hard fingers lid into her slick depths without permeable, Bella arched into his hand, soft moans escaping her parted lips. Edward lifted her as if she weighed nothing at all, sliding beneath her expertly before sheathing himself in her tight warmth with a loud groan of satisfaction. Bella grinned down at him, feeling extremely sensual and beautiful, she rode him with ease. Meeting the upward thrusts of his hips with growing expertise.

His steely fingers pulled her forwards until his hungry lips could feast of her pert breasts, sucking on her nipples with hungry tugs that made her pussy flutter around his cock with wonderful tremors. Her long dark brown hair created a curtain around their faces as their mouths met finally, gasping for air Bella strived to keep up with her vampire lover. The taste of his mouth and skin drove her to all new heights, as she unknowingly became a victim of the thrall. She simply wanted to be so close to him that there was no end or beginning to either of them.

Mine.

A loud and frighteningly familiar voice demanded inside her head, and she froze, her wide chocolate eyes blinking in surprise before a slow, deadly smile spread across her full lips. Bella leaned down then and kissed Edward again, licking and sucking at his lips with lecherous and mouth-watering attention to detail before she whispered; "No – MINE."

Of course Edward knew whom she was talking to and only smirked playfully as he renewed his efforts and grasped her hips tightly, before fucking her onto himself. Their orgasm approached together, sending their mutual cries of pleasure echoing through the large chamber. Bella fell completely sated onto Edwards chest as her heart beat threatened to send that very organ thundering out of her chest.

Edward stroked her back and neck tenderly. "Was that Charlotte?" he asked.

"Yes." Bella nodded, "That was the first time I have actually heard her in my head."

"Is she getting stronger?" he asked.

"No, it simply feels like she is more 'there' inside me. I can now get rid of her if I put my mind to it." Bella rose up and stared down at him, her mind flooded with eagerness. "Please talk to Jasper, change me now! While I can suppress her, while I am still in control, then it will stay that way – wont it?" her eagerness was infectious, but Edward refused to be moved.

"Bella, Jasper had his reasons for telling you no, for now. Changing you in one go could harm you – you could become 'stuck' for want of a better word – between personalities – forever."

"What?" Bella exclaimed. "Do you mean that I must reconcile with her, that evil bitch I hate so much? And what do you mean change me in one go? As if there is another way?"

So, she had picked up on that had she? It appeared it was time for truth or dare, one of Edwards's favourite games. He sat up, spilling her onto the silk sheets, their nakedness partially forgotten as he stared, enraptured by her beauty. He couldn't wait for immortality to capture her beauty and erase all the tiny imperfections, Edward was sure she would be unparallel.

"Firstly, yes, you must reconcile with Charlotte, bitch that she is, once you get to know her she is highly entertaining and secondly, my dear Bella, it depends on the amount of venom administered, as to how fast you change. It can take an hour if enough is pushed into your system or years if a small amount is given over time. Understand?" He watched her carefully, waiting for the penny to drop.

It took several moments before she realised the truth, her mouth falling open and then moving soundlessly as she tried to ask a question. It was a good thing Edward could read her mind.

"When, you ask?" Edward joked. "Well the night we took you hunting was one time as well as the time you pricked your finger on my tooth and I licked up the blood. The first time we had sex with you, was another. Each time we kiss, really. How much does it take you ask? Miniscule amounts to begin the change, we are poisonous dear, quite a lot like a serpent. You have been slowly changing for a while now, Bella. Haven't you noticed anything different? You know; hair, eyesight, reflexes?" he laughed at her expression, which was torn between happiness and irritation.

Finally finding her voice, she gasped; "My eyes. That's why my eyes sight is so much improved, I had wondered about that…"

Grasping her face between his hands again, he kissed her gently. "You are going to be perfect, my dear, dear Isabella." He said reverently.

"Yes and completely and utterly beautiful." Jasper's deep voice said suddenly right besides them.

Bella flung herself into his arms, bringing Edward with her in her haste to touch them both. Jasper's eyes were a dark and shimmering red, so Bella knew that he had just fed.

She gazed at him lovingly before reaching out and kissing him. He remained impassive for a moment enjoying her somewhat innocent ministrations, before taking control and kissing Bella with depth and passion. His lips tasted of blood, sharp metallic and some how delicious, and the scent made Bella moan hungrily, as she sucked on his tongue, which was filling her mouth.

In the past, the taste or smell of blood would have made her faint or throw up, now it made her hungry and extremely turned on.

Bella wondered silently if it was the change already making her hungry for the substance, which would eventually sustain her, or Charlottes naturally blood thirsty nature taking over partially?

"I don't know." Edward answered softly as he kissed her neck and ear again. "Maybe you are just becoming a blood thirsty little thing. Dating two vampires can do that to you." He joked being typically Edward.

A soft smile touched her mouth as jasper drew back from her. "Yes, dating two vampires can change one." Bella said while she stroked both of her mate's faces at the same time.

Jasper chuckled and rose off the bed, stripping away his dirty clothes he glanced at Bella with a full smirk; "I need a bath, care to join me?" he asked.

"Let me fill it," Edward said, rising to his feet too and pulling on his discarded jeans.

Within moments he was back, grinning widely, "Your bath is drawn, master." He murmured as he traced Jasper's chiselled jaw line sensuously, leaning forward he placed a kiss onto his mates lips. "Which of us was the invite for?" Edward asked Jasper.

Jasper threaded his large hand through Edwards unruly hair and gazed at him seriously; "Any invitation I issue is always for both of you." He stated firmly.

Bella found that she was more than ready to go and bath with them both. Their beauty was mind numbing and it was so amazingly sensual watching them together, she just wanted more.

Jasper's predatory eyes snapped to her as she gave off seriously sexual vibes, his somewhat stern mouth pulled upwards slightly as he surveyed his human mate.

"Come." He ordered, beckoning to her with one huge hand.

Bella slid off the bed slowly, everything felt unreal and dreamlike as she walked naked towards her mates.

Feeling no shame she was immediately enfolded into their joint embrace. Her whole being rejoiced as her skin touched theirs, filling her with a sense of completion. Reality was far off and distant as pain was buried deep and forgotten for the moment.

The most threatening problem of all surged close to the surface as Bella relaxed with her men.

A/N; Yes I'm leaving it there for now. Please review and let me know what you think? The last chapter only had six reviews so I wondering if this story is still interesting or if it is sucking…? Please let me know. Thank you all!
