Thank you for the reviews. I was very excited to see that I had some. Keep them coming. :-D 3rd chapter in one night. How awesome is that? Hope you all enjoy this.

S.M. owns all things Twilight. I am just dabbing with them.

We were back at home. My dress was hung in my closet along with my shoes. The girls managed to find jewelry that was my birthstone and would match perfect to my dress. My mother made me put it on to show her and so i gave her the full twirl with a smile of my face. My mom's smile was bright, but I could see the sadness in her eyes. Her baby girl, her youngest was soon to be an adult and with that brought in my patch to the club. She was both happy and sad at the same time, because on one hand, I was giving up my family's club nor the businesses and yet on the other hand, I would be thrown into a man's world of violence and mayhem. I sat and asked myself if I could really do this?

Yes, I can totally handle doing this. I have been training for this my whole life and I am currently still training on certain aspects. My parents made sure that Rosalie and I took self defense classes at a young age and still continue to do. I've been trained in kickboxing, jujutsu, and other mixed martial arts. It was really fun to learn them and I still continue to practice weekly with Jasper and Demetri. I'm currently be trained in throwing knives, and explosives. Why I need to know explosive is beyond me, but apparently my father thinks Rose and I need to know it.

I take out the folded up paper in my pocket. I stared at the paper for what seems like forever but in reality, it's only been about five minutes. I grab my phone and open a new text message. I typed in Edward's number and then come up blank as I think of what to say.

Hey Edward. This is Bella from earlier. I just thought I would say Hi and Thank You again. Send. Time to see if he was serious.

I decided that since I have time today, I will work on the design for the shops new flyers. My mom thinks we can offer a sale since fall was upon us. It's not like the weather will change to much. I make a flyer with a few different makes and models of cars and trucks and print it out. I'll show it to her later. I hear some whispered arguing down in the living room so it's only natural that I would go down and check it out.

I walk out of my room and down the hall to the stairs. I stand there and listen as my parents and Jasper argue. Rose joins me and tells me that I should not be eavesdropping. Yeah she is one to talk because she is doing it right with me.

"Dad, you can't be serious as to wait till Thursday to tell her. She needs to know now." Jasper said.

"What the hell do you want me to do Jasper? If there was any other way to do this then I would. This problem is getting to big. I don't know which guys to trust and which to not. This merger will help as because the Devil's are having the same fucking problem that we are. Carlisle and I are trying to narrow the men down which is why they are coming here for dinner on Thursday." my dad answered.

"Look I can completely understand that and I will continue to help you with that front. However, you need to understand that she meant him today at the mall. You need to tell her everything now before she is patched in. Give her a chance to change her mind if that is what she wants to do." Jasper defended.

"What the fuck do you mean, she meant him at the mall?" my mom asked with a worried expression.

"Exactly what I said mom. They really didn't speak words except for a thank you, but they were eye flirting across the food court today. His sister gave her his number but I don't know if she used it yet. Look, I think you should tell her about the merging, otherwise Thursday night dinner may just backfire on you. Imagine how you would feel about semi meeting someone on one day just to have them come to dinner later and not be warned? I know she isn't patched in yet, and there is certain information that you can not share with her, but this shit is important and I feel that it can be shared, at least with her."

I was down the stairs and standing next to Jasper looking at my parents before I realized what I was doing. "What are you three talking about? I want to know what is going on and like right now. You guys are talking about me as if I am not in the house. Jasper is talking about the guy from the mall who i over hear is a Devil. What the fuck is up with that? The one guy I am attracted to is a rival. Go figure." I huffed as I plopped myself down onto the couch and crossed my arms. I arched my eyebrow waiting for someone to explain this shit.

My parents shared a look and my mom told my dad that he has no choice but to explain it to me. Rosalie joined us and it was like having a family meeting which I guess would be good since it's been a while. "Who would like to start?" I asked.

"Bella, as you know there are things I am not supposed to talk about with you right now because you haven't officially been patched into the club, but as my daughter, you need to know this." my dad took a deep breath and let it out before he continued. "We have a few rats. Our closest circle have been trying for a few weeks to smoke them out. It hasn't been easy, but we fill that we have found at least one of them. I took a meeting with Carlisle Cullen last week to discuss a merging of sorts with our two clubs. Do you know who he is?"

I thought for a minute before I answered. "Isn't he the Devil's of Destruction pres?" They nodded their heads. "That would explain why they were at the mall today. They must have assumed they could go there now because of this merge that will be happening."

My parents looked to Jasper to confirm it I guess. He spoke before I had a chance to answer their unspoken question. "There was only five of them, although I don't think Alice is a member. She is really tiny." I laughed and my siblings joined agreeing with me.

"Do you know who else was with them? They weren't wearing their cuts?" my mom asked.

"There was the girl, Alice and she is the one who gave Bella her brother's number and I believe his name was Edward. Then there was this really fucking big guy, like bigger than Jake and sexy as a mother fucker."

"Rose!" We all yelled. "Focus damn it!"

"What? He was and I am not ashamed to admit it." Rosalie shrugged.

"No they didn't have their cuts on. There was two other guys who mostly stayed behind the three of them so I'm going to assume they were bodyguards for I'm guessing Edward and Alice. Although if Alice is anything like our dear Bella here, then she wouldn't actually need a bodyguard." Jasper laughed as I groaned.

"What happened?" my mother asked.

I shrugged and said "Some bastardo decided that my ass was better suited in his hand. He didn't like the ending factor of his arm behind his back."

"Jesus Bella." my dad said quietly. "I'm proud that you handled yourself. Unfortunately, this may continue to happen even after you take the gavel, but let's get back to the topic at hand. It sounds like you meant Carlisle's children. Alice is not patched in. Edward and Emmett are. Edward is Carlisle's VP and Emmett is Sgt at Arms. Carlisle is going through the same thing that we are. He has rats and he is currently trying to smoke them out. We believe that the men from our side could possibly be teaming up with men from his side to take not only Carlisle down, but us as well. It is important that we merge our mc's. It will make both clubs stronger to fight whatever it is that is coming after us."

"That madre stronza. He seen everyone's cuts. He knew who we were and he didn't bother to say who he was." i yelled to no one in particular.

"Honey, he may not know yet." My mom said hugging me.

"When am I being patched in?" I asked.

"Wednesday after dinner." my dad answered.

"Good. That means that I can officially kick Edward Cullen's ass on Thursday." i huffed as I walked back upstairs to my room.

I grabbed my phone and noticed that I had two text.

-Hey Bella. I'm glad to hear from you. Your welcome. You are beautiful. -Edward. Oh he is good with his words.

-Hey Bella. I hoped you don't mind me texting, but I stole Edward's phone and locked myself in the bathroom so I could get your number from him. I wanted to see if you are busy tomorrow? -Alice.

My phone signaled that I had another message. Hey Bella, it's me again. I wanted to say sorry about my sister. She stole my phone and locked herself in the bathroom to get your number. I wouldn't let her have it.-Edward

I was still really pissed off that he didn't tell me who he was, but I'm not petty enough to ignore him or Alice so I wrote them both back.

-Hey. It's ok about my number. You seem like a really cool chick. I am actually busy working tonight and tomorrow. You are welcome to stop by the restaurant and ask for me.

Now time to message Edward back. I still haven't figured out what to say to him. It took longer for me to type out his message than it did for Alice. Maybe because I am not attracted to her. I just shook my head.

It's fine that she has my number. She seems cool. You on the other hand, I'm not so sure about.

Ha take that.

Uh ho. Edward hasn't even stepped foot into Bella's house, yet he is already in the dog house. LoL. Ok, I believe I am done for the night. There should be a new chapter sometime this week. Have a good night all.
