Happy Reading
DISCLAIMER - ALL CHARACTERS BELONG TO STEPHANIE MEYERS.
STORYLINE BELONGS TO ME.
Yes, powers, how many at this point we are unsure of, they show up at the oddest of moments. So far I have telekinesis, the four elements, the power to freeze people, astral projection, the ability to control people and absorb their powers, the ability to stop time, a couple of succubus features thrown in (of which I have no idea where they came from), and the ability to see the truth in all things.
Both Peter and I believe my powers are a result of being bitten by four vampires instead of just one, either way I am stoked about the enhancements that I've gotten.
I'm distracted from my rambling by the scent of the Cullens again as they get closer to the house, however I can also see them on the hidden security cameras that we had installed at the edge of our property. Won't they be in for a surprise when they finally see us, I CAN'T FUCKIN' WAIT!!!!!
Carlisle and Esme POV
Approaching the sign for Fork, Washington I get the feeling that something bad has happened, something tragic. The place and atmosphere feel off, like a catastrophe has occurred and as I drive slowly through town I notice that all of the shops appear to have mourning signs hanging in them.
I glance at Esme hearing her gasp as I pull into the gas station I watch as she lifts a trembling hand to point at a sign hanging in the window.
In Loving Memory of Chief Charles Swan
Beloved Friend, Father and Officer
In Loving Memory of Isabella Marie Swan
Beloved Daughter, Friend and Sister of the Quileute Tribe
They will always be remembered by the townspeople of Forks
Included was a picture of Chief Swan and Bella standing in front of their house.
I completely forget about filling the gas tank and burn rubber out of there to Charlie and Bella's house. I stare in shock to what's left of the house sitting in the car listening to Esme cry in the seat next to me as I get out inspecting the burned ruins of what used to be Charlie and Bella Swans house.
I walk closer, ignoring the sound of another car pulling up, to see a plaque engraving at the foot of the stairs. As I read each word my shoulders hunch more and more.
Here stands the last reminder of a great man who contributed much to his community, always giving of his time and being the one person that you could turn to whenever you needed help. His trait of giving generously of himself passed on to his daughter, Bella, who was just as giving if not more of her love, friendship and kindness. They will both be truly missed and remembered always.
May they both rest in peace – October 2008
Bella was dead along with her father Charlie, it didn't say how they died but I would make it my mission to find out. My undead heart felt like it has been crushed and ripped out then dropped in a bucket of acid.
I had to find out what happened to her and Charlie, maybe if I went passed the hospital I could find out, maybe Jacob would know, I wonder if he would talk to me.
Just as I am thinking that I smell werewolves in the forest behind the house. Turning to my family I notice that Edward is writhing in agony on the ground near the car, but for some reason I somehow don't seem to care about his feelings right now, mainly because he is the reason that we left in the first place.
I notice Edward tense up, but before he can make a move to get up I say harshly, "STAY!" before turning to continue to the back yard where I see Sam standing at the edge of the forest surrounded by seven large, growling wolves.
Before I can say anything Sam tilts his head to the side and the wolves quiet their growling but don't back down. Sam then grimaces quietly before saying harshly, "This land is sacred and your family is not welcome here. I will speak to you at your house later after I speak with the Elders."
"DON'T. COME. HERE. AGAIN. EVER" Sam growls before turning and sprinting into the woods followed closely by the rest of his pack.
I am left speechless by his abruptness and by the fact that he said we are not welcomed here, unsure of what he means by that since this area was never a part of the original treaty. I guess I would have to wait until we spoke later tonight. Still in shock I return to the car to see that Alice and Rose have been able to get Edward back in the car, restraining him from attacking while Esme remains quiet.
They all look at me questioningly and my only response is, "We'll all find out later."
I take one last look at the house, eerily quiet and desolate sitting amongst the rest of the nicely done houses, wondering what the hell could have happened here for them to not have torn it down and rebuilt something different in its place.
Several hours later found me sitting outside on the back porch listening to Edwards' useless sobbing having left Bella, Alice and Rose going through her wardrobe in some futile attempt to fill their time until we left. Esme was sitting some feet from me in her garden just staring at what's left of the flowers that Bella and she had planted before everything happened.
Just as I had planned to go to the border line in search of Sam to find my answers he comes sauntering from out of the woods to my left, again with seven large wolves surrounding him; I notice there are four different ones that were not with him this morning. He stops a few feet in front of the woods watching me as I walk towards him, but before I can get within arm's reach of him the wolves start growling and snapping their teeth.
I hastily step back a couple of steps as the rest of my family members, minus Esme, come to join me crouching in attack positions to which Sam just smirks at me before saying coldly, "Give me a reason."
I turn towards my so-called children saying harshly, "Enough the treaty will not be broken by your petty differences."
I turn back to Sam and start to ask, "What happened…."
Sam glowers and interrupts, "You leeches left unfinished business behind in your rush to vacate town. Charlie Swan and one of our own suffered the consequences of your selfishness. Bella disappeared soon after the funeral and the house mysteriously burned down three days later, these came in the mail one week later."
Sam finishes throwing down an envelope at my feet before turning to leave.
"Sam…… please…..wait" I start as he reaches the trees with the wolves walking backwards behind him.
"What do you mean one of your own?" Esme asks before I can get the words past the agony chocking my throat.
"Jacob Black" Sam replies solemnly as the wolves howl in pain before disappearing into the woods after Sam.
"What do you mean unfinished business?" I call out still stunned from the other news.
"A red-headed leech" we all hear drift from the woods, which causes all of the family to gasp in shock. Victoria came back for Bella, Charlie and Jacob died instead.
I stand stunned for a moment before reaching down to pick up the envelope, turning around to go and sit next to Esme in the garden in front of Bella's flowers. Opening the envelope I pull out a copied legal paper and read the letter, sitting back again in shock and disbelief.
"What is it Carlisle?" Esme asks, as I glance up in the direction that Sam left before silently handing her the piece of paper. Staggering to my feet in pain I head into the house retreating to my study where I lock the door. Sitting down at my desk I put my head in my hands and sob silently.
The legal paper from the envelope stated that the Swan house and the surrounding land now belonged to the Quileute tribe; the treaty has been rectified to include all land belonging to the tribe.
The Cullens could go into town but not go near Bella Swan's house ever again. The letter was signed by Bella Swan and notarized before a judge and the council. The house is to remain standing as is – a reminder to the Quileute tribe, and the Cullens of the family that had been lost because of the mythical world. While no one else would know or understand both the Cullens and the Quileute tribe would.
A reminder of the cost and consequences of what happens when loose ends are not tied up and taken care of, a reminder that choices effect everyone not just some.
Bella POV
About 10 minutes before they reach us the phone rings as Emmett, Jasper and I get comfortable on the specially built lounge chair sitting on the front porch. I flip the phone on and put it on speak as I casually drawl out, "Hello Peter, yes we can smell them, no I will not kill them yet, no we are not going to tell them that I am a vampire it's none of their concern and I could give a fuck about how they feel about my current state of life. Are you and Charlotte still coming to visit in a couple of days?"
Emmett and Jasper look at me grinning, chuckling quietly as Peter mumbles, "Damn, she's got my power."
I laugh boisterously snuggling deeper into the arms of my other halves as we turn our heads together at the sound of snapping twigs.
"You guys are outside" Peter says quietly as I hear Charlotte say in the background, "FUCK YEAH!!! I wouldn't want them soiling my house either."
"Damn straight Charly" I reply as Jasper and Emmett grin at me before snickering as they glance at each other and the same thought crosses our minds of fucking with them some more.
"I gotta go brother, I wanna fuck with them some more as they come up the path" I moan into the phone feeling both Emmett and Jaspers hands run across my body.
I giggle as Peter gets quiet and Charlotte giggles, "GO WOMAN!!! Don't worry Peter she is still going to be your baby sister" as I hang up and give myself over to the pleasure their hands are bringing me.
I moan in pleasure as they both latch on to each of my breasts through my bra while their hands join together and slip inside my pants. They growl in pleasure upon discovering that I am going commando, biting my breasts in pleasure as their hands slip further down. Jasper continues on to thrust two fingers deep inside my aching core while Emmett rubs feverishly on my clit.
"Ugh….yes….right there" I moan out loud hearing a roar of frustration come from three out of the five vampires coming closer, frustration because they can't see the house under the shield. I completely ignore them as I reach down grasping both Jasper and Emmett in my hands and pumping them for a few moments before shredding their clothes and kneeling on the lounger in front of Jasper.
I take him into my mouth bobbing up and down feverishly as he wraps my hair around his hand tightly pushing my head to go faster as Emmett moves in behind me thrusting deep inside me with a guttural groan as Jasper hisses when I moan my pleasure around his cock deep inside my mouth.
"Bella" they both groan in unison as I open us completely to each other cycling our lust and need, extremely ecstatic right now that as a vampire I have no gag reflex because just then I deep throat Jasper as Emmett starts slamming into me.
We are all caught up in our passion, lust and possessive that unknowingly my shield thickens until it blocks out all sound. Jasper roars out his pleasure as he fills my mouth with his delicious essence that I swallow down eagerly right before I scream out my pleasure pressing my face into the crease at Jaspers hip as Emmett starts thrusting madly gripping my hips tightly. Emmett roars his release I bite down on Jasper's hip as he hisses and jerks in pleasure when I moan into his skin.
I collapse exhausted against Jasper as Emmett struggles not to fall down and crush the both of us, I giggle as Jasper maneuvers us to a different position so that Emmett can cuddle up against us.
We turn our heads together to see Carlisle, Esme, Edward, Alice and Rose break through the trees surrounding our house, watch as they halt to gaze at the house, listen as Edward says, "There's some kind of shield around the house, I can't see or hear anything."
"Bella are you" Emmett starts as I shiver when his cold breath blows across my back "doing that" Jasper finishes.
"Yes" I reply giggling, "but don't ask me how. I just thought about how I didn't want them to just be able to come into our house and soil it with their filth, but I guess it came out stronger than I intended because they can't see or hear anything. Although they could before you both successfully distracted me, but then I remembered what Peter said the night before I was turned, that I could blink through time and I think that's what happened, but only inside the shield."
"We'll have to ask Peter about it when he gets here, because we're going in this blind. I don't know half of what I can do and I have a feeling that something bad might happen. My rage and anger from before has not gone away and I don't want it coming to the surface when I least expect it, I want us to be prepared for anything."
"So you're shield is kind of like a two way mirror" Jasper says as Emmett finishes, "we can see out but they can't see it."
"Apparently" I say shrugging nonchalantly as I wiggle my way out of their arms, "Time to greet the family" I sneer walking into the house to grab some clothes as Emmett and Jasper stand and follow behind me. As we leisurely redress ourselves I slowly pull the shield down from around the house so that by the time that we return to the porch they are able to hear us stroll out and get comfortable on the lounger.
It's only as I am getting comfortable between Emmett's legs with Jasper's head lying in my lap with my fingers running through his hair that I allow them to see us completely.
The three of us gaze at them calmly and coldly watching as Edward stops and just stares at the three of us.
"Bella?" Esme and Carlisle gasp in surprise seeing me alive while Rose and Alice stands there fuming.
"Bella…what….how…are…when?" Edward stutters as I lean back deeper into the comfort of my loves arms, stroking my other hand up Emmett's arm in a soothing caress.
"You know for a 100 year old vampire, you're kind of slow Eddie" I murmur without getting up to welcome them.
"BOTH OF MY BROTHERS!!?!?!?!" Edward growls out walking towards us as we continue to lounge back comfortably coming down from our orgasmic high, I smile slightly as he fumes more becoming aware of the scent of my arousal in the air. Unknown to any of them I had surrounded us by my physical shield that could become undetected if I wanted it to be.
Emmett and Jasper stand up and crouch in front of me ready to attack but calming slightly when I sit up to run my hands up both their backs into their hair massaging the backs of their necks. They groan and shudder simultaneously before sliding back down to wrap me in their arms. I giggle as they each nuzzle my neck at the same time in the exact spot that they both know I love and that makes me hot instantly.
I groan forgetting Edward standing there growling, forgetting Alice and Rose sending waves of jealousy and anger towards me, forgetting Carlisle and Esme standing there in shock. I forget everything as I feel both of their hands slide into my hair and start massaging my scalp just the way I love it, giving me that feeling every time as my knees get weak. I hiss and feel my body tighten in response as my knees give way and I shudder in more pleasure as they chuckle in unison against my neck.
Because of our unique connection, I have a little of Jasper's empathy power and I can feel the anger and jealousy streaming from Edward, as well as the jealousy and anger streaming from both Alice and Rose. I feel shock, curiosity and guilt from Carlisle, then guilt and love from Esme as I laugh silently because I don't care anymore what he or they feel or think regarding me and my boys, well men.
"How could you do this to me Bella? I love you." Edward asks sulking in pain and regret of leaving me.
I push them away taking a step forward, both of them moving in behind me as I start snarling as Edward. Looking at him in disgust I run my eyes over him before looking at the others, then back at him as I sneer in hatred, "How could I do this to you!!! YOU LEFT ME!!! NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!! YOU DIDN'T WANT ME REMEMBER?!?!? YOU DIDN'T LOVE ME REMEMBER!?!?! YOU LEFT ME ALONE IN THE FUCKING WOODS AFTER DESTROYING ME AND MY HEART THAT YOU DIDN'T WANT!!!!!! And now you have the nerve to come back, ignoring the fact that you told me I wasn't good enough for you!!!"
Emmett and Jasper growl in anger finally realizing what caused my human vampire state when they first found me 9 months ago, finally knowing the real reason behind it, realizing that what Edward told them and me were two different things.
"Did it even occur to you how devastated I would be? How the things you said tore my whole world apart? Did you even realize how much I loved you, GAVE UP FOR YOU!! The family I LOST because of you and your fucking love? I LOST MY BEST FRIEND BECAUSE OF YOU!!! Charlie is gone because of you!!!!"
"Bella, I didn't know. I'm sorry, I warned you about the dangers of being involved in our world. I was only trying to protect you; I left because I loved you. I thought if we moved away the danger would leave with me."
"LIAR!," I roar, "That's not why you left Edward, you left because you didn't want me finding out about the affair you were having with Alice, while you always pushed me away."
I ignore the gasps of shock coming from Carlisle, Esme and Rose as Emmett and Jasper stiffen behind me remembering our conversation that morning in the hotel room.
"I broke that off before I was with you."
My scream of rage was primal as a gust of wind came from nowhere directly at Edward sending him crashing through the rock formations we had stacked in front of the house as the primal human side of me surfaced. I vaguely think damn fucker as he ruins my memory of the first fun we had upon arriving here at our new house.
Emmett and Jasper gasp in shock instinctively grabbing me as they drop to their knees on either side of me, wind builds up twisting and curling around our clothes. Their grip tightening as their hand slides down my arm and they anchor themselves into the floor trapped inside the violent tornado that instantly appeared around the three of us.
"WHY???" All three of us hear me scream in my head, and then they both wince in pain from the rage coursing through my body as they pull me down between the two of them.
The instant more of our skin touches my rage is washed away on the tide of our bonded love and I whimper in pleasure from the intensity of it. The three of us smile in unison at the sound of my whimper, because it happens every time they touch me together.
The tornado evaporates as does the rage while the three of us huddle there quietly soaking in each other, floating and basking in the moment as our love flows between each other bringing us waves and waves of peace and tranquility.
"I don't believe it." I hear Carlisle and Esme murmur in unison, "The Triumvirate?"
"Well, that was something that I didn't see coming." Alice says quietly as I open my eyes to see the family standing around a shaken and shocked Edward who is still lying on the ground. I laugh because I knocked Edward on his self righteous sanctimonious ass, something I've wanted to do for awhile now.
I laugh with Emmett and Jasper laughing with me simply because they love the sound of my laughter as I love theirs. I would wonder later if they knew what I was really laughing at and if they were laughing about the same thing, while they'll wonder later how both of them were able to hear me as well as each other at the same time when I screamed. The three of us will wonder about lots of things by the time the family finally settles in, just not in our house because I was not allowing it.
Standing up with the assistance of my heroes, I ask calmly and coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Carlisle and Esme look down in shame while Rosalie, Edward and Alice look anywhere but directly at us.
"WE ARE WAITING!!!" we snap in unison as we present a united front.
"We were concerned about you when we heard the news of your death, we went back to Forks looking for answers" replied Alice quietly.
"Yeah, right" I snort in disgust, "it took you this long to be concerned. Who were you really concerned about Alice?" I ask sneering at her.
"I'm surprised you didn't see this coming, seer," I sneer, "you and your fucking visions of the future that you want, fuck everyone else."
Alice looks shocked at my tone of voice and starts to get angry, "I was concerned about you Bella, as well as Jasper and Emmett."
I hear the subtle growling from Emmett and Jasper as we feel her fakeness; in truth we see her anger, jealousy and resentment.
"You can stop" Emmett starts "with your fake" I continue "concern Alice" Jasper finishes as Edward gets up and just looks at us in wonder.
I shake off Emmett's and Jasper's hold stalking towards her, "WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE COMING TO OUR HOME, ACTING LIKE YOU FUCKING CARE?!?!?!?!?" I roar in rage, "You fucking BITCH!!!! Get the fuck out of our house!!!!"
Rosalie steps forward, "Bella, you keep saying 'our house', what do you mean?"
I snap my head towards Rosalie and sneer, "EXACTLY what I said, OUR HOUSE – mine, Jasper's and Emmett's. And last time I checked the three of us are adults and we can do anything we damn well please."
Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Alice and Edward all start talking at once which pisses me off causing me to roar, "ENOUGH!!!"
"YOU fuckers left us, we don't have to justify anything to you" I sneer as Jasper and Emmett growl behind me.
"But Bella," Alice starts as she moves to step forward and Jasper moves in to my side.
"But Bella, nothing" I sneer in disgust, "YOU were supposed to be my best friend. Some fucking friend you are, fucking my boyfriend behind my back and Jaspers, lying to us. Who needs enemies when I have a fucking friend like you?"
"As a matter of fact, all of you get the fuck away from our house. When, AND IF, we want to talk to you, we'll do the summoning."
"Jasper" Alice asks looking at him as Rose asks, "Emmett" and they both step forward to place a hand against my back.
"She said get out" they both say in harmony.
"What has she done to you guys?" asks Alice looking confused, angry and jealous.
"She helped us heal from your betrayal" says Jasper looking at Alice and Edward.
"Our bond is strong and will not be destroyed by your pettiness" says Emmett looking at Rosalie.
Edward has remained silent, jealousy, rage and confusion streaming from him like water trickling from a broken toilet as he stares in concentration between Jasper and Emmett.
"I can't read you two anymore" Edward says in frustration as both Emmett and Jasper laugh responding in unison, "Yeah? About fucking time."
I smile and giggle replying, "You're welcome precious."
"GET OUT! Don't call us, we'll call you" I demand harshly pulling Jasper and Emmett closer.
As Carlisle walks away I say, "Yes, Carlisle we know about what we've become" and I smile wickedly when he looks back over his shoulder at me.
I silently watch as they slowly make their way back down the path from the house before taking a deep breath grabbing Jasper and Emmett's hands as I close my eyes and concentrate on strengthening my shield.
I want to make sure that the three of us are properly strengthened for the upcoming drama the stupid Cullen's always bring with them.
Carlisle POV
Walking at a human pace down the path back to the car I ask quietly, "Esme what have we done? Where did we go wrong in raising this family?"
"I don't know Carlisle; I think it started when we allowed favoritism to take control. I feel that Edward used being our first 'child' against us all these years or maybe we just let him take advantage of that position."
"Because we loved him, we just let it go instead of nipping it in the bud when we were given the chance during his rebellious years" I reply quietly getting to the car and watching as Rose picked up rocks and starts throwing them.
"Instead of putting our foot down when Rose came along we were so concerned about bowing to his happiness and being blind in ours" Esme replies as Alice looks dejectedly up the hill at the silhouette of the house.
"How do we fix this" we both ask at the same time; then smile at each other before I pull her into a much needed hug.
