I had a plan, that was, a semi formed plan of how to avoid taking Bella until I'd had a chance to speak to Carlisle. I felt I owed him something for all the years of care and guidance, such as it were. My idea of gratitude wasn't stealing his sons girlfriend.

But then Bella had spoken such sweet words to me, drink from me Jasper, take me, I want to be inside you - sweet fuck - and I want you to be inside me...well, I was just a man, as I'd told her. Those words fucking killed me, in the sweetest of ways.

I'd been feared by many during my existence and yet none had felled me with a few well chosen, heartfelt words. Bella leaned forward on her knees and the smell of her warm breath hit my face like a sledge hammer, her sweet face was right in front of me. My eyes fell to her mouth and with a groan I kissed her.

Softly and slowly, our lips moved over each other, tasting and exploring each contour. Her lips were soft and pillowy beneath mine, they moulded to my mouth submitting to my hardness easily.

My teeth elongated within seconds and she noticed, deliberately running her tongue over them softly, experimentally. The heady scent of her arousal was delicious as she whimpered against my lips.

How was I supposed to say no to her? Bella was my mate, mine, just as surely as if she'd been made for me by God's own hands.

With shock I realised that Bella was trying to re-establish our bond on her own, she was seeking me out emotionally. I felt every one of her plea's as if it were being shouted in my mind, her arousal and need brimming over into me like a tidal wave of pure sensation. I kissed her harder, my tongue diving it the sweet tasting depths of her mouth, my teeth causing damage carelessly as I deepened the kiss to new levels. I couldn't get enough of Bella, her taste, her scent, the feel of her soft, supple body against mine was intoxicating.

I lifted her onto my lap, she weighed nothing at all, my hands wrapping round her rounded arms easily, fingers almost touching.

I re-established the connection between us and euphoria swept through us both like a sonic boom, as we were joined once again in every way except physically. Bella's supple thighs cradled my hips as I pulled her closer still against my hard flesh. Her breasts were heated brands against my chest, their warmth seeping through the fabric she still wore. With hungry impatient hands I pulled and ripped her out of her top, followed by her tiny shorts. She was now naked except for a tiny blue lace thong.

I recognised the clothes she had worn, they were one of the many gifts Alice had pressed upon Bella. I know they were not really her style, but I loved that she had worn them for me.

Her long hair fell in wild waves and curls around us as our mouths moved, ever restless against each other, the taste of her blood in my mouth fuelling the rampant desire I felt for her.

"Tell me to stop, Darlin'." I groaned as I pulled back for a moment. "I don't want to hurt you."

"I want to be here with you always, Jasper." She whispered, tiny hands cradling my face as she stared into my eyes. Her lips were stained with her own blood and her cheeks pink. "Don't stop. Take me."

I had to say it.

"What about Edward?"

Her face didn't change, nor did her lust ebb in the slightest. Her emotions were untroubled, serene even.

"I don't want to hurt him. But he'll just have to understand. I need to be with you. It simply has to be this way. He'll have to see that."

I was sceptical. Vampires by their very nature didn't like sharing. Mates were strictly off limits.

"What about Alice?" Bella countered softly.

I grinned up at her, "Now that is a good question, darlin', since Alice is your friend as well as my wife."

Bella face hardened slightly. "She'll just have to understand, like Edward, I won't stand aside. You're mine."

Our bond tightened around us, it's stands a shimmering, living thing. It was crimson, soft velvet, crushed rose petals, red wine and the blood on Bella's lips, all consuming and eternal.

It was us.

"I will have to change you Bella." I said, watching and feeling her. "The moment I bite you, they'll know, because your future will no longer be with Edward and that will effect his future. But I can't be with you any other way, darlin'."

Excitement filled her at my words, longing, more need, elation.

"I want to be yours, we'll deal with the rest later. Together. Just don't leave me. I want to stay bonded with you like this, always."

"I don't know if that's possible darlin', I've never tried to forge a bond like ours with anyone before, I don't know if we can stay this way, but we can try."

Already our lips drifted closer together as our words died and instinct took over.

Bella instinctively rocked against me as she whimpered into my mouth, it was the sexiest fucking thing I think I'd every heard. Her hands were tracing pathways of fire across my chest and onto my stomach, her questing fingers hesitated for a moment as they encountered the cold steel of my jeans button.

She didn't seem shy about her near naked body, she was so absorbed by our loop of sensation and emotions that she had quite forgotten to be. I found her sweet innocence intoxicating and arousing. My mate was perfect in every way I decided.

I broke our kiss long enough for my lips to find her throat just as my hands closed over her firm, young breasts, nipples tight buds between my fingers.

She was just so fucking edible.

I nuzzled at her silky neck, suckling the flesh into my mouth. Bella arched into me as she cried out loudly. I sent her all the lust that I felt for her and tweaked it a little, making it into a heady cocktail to make her a helpless victim of my desire. I didn't mean to do it at first but as the first wave of her pleasure hit me I realised that I could make her experience everything I was capable of right here and now and that thought made me grin in delight.

I stopped kissing her neck and sucked her nipple instead, her hands went to my head at once, holding me there, her fingers tangling and pulling on my hair. "Jasper...oh my God...you feel so good, don't stop, I need this, I need you.. "

I reached between us and opened my jeans, my hardness sprung free as soon as the zipper went down, it settled between her thighs and I thrust up into the apex of her legs with a slow, roll of my hips. Another cry fell from her lips as she clutched me even tighter, if I'd been human she would have drawn blood.

The smell of her arousal was luring me towards its source, I lifted her off my lap and threw her none too gently against the pile of pillows at the head of my bed. Her breasts bounced as she landed, wide eyed among the soft pile, wild chestnut brown hair surrounding a face of unforgettable beauty. Her plump, succulent lips were parted emitting short gasping breaths of air, her heart pounding wildly.

I amplified the swirling wanton pool of desire and need I felt and watched fascinated as her legs fell apart and her tiny hands rose to her own breasts pulling on the nipples as her hips arched up towards me seeking friction.

I hovered over her, my face barely an inch away from hers, a smirk tugging at my lips. "Touch yourself for me, darlin'."

Bella moaned as she watched me, watching her. "I want you to touch me...not this."

"But I'm leading you towards something, Bella. Trust me."

She nodded slightly.

With a flip of my hand I snapped her panty in two and slowly pulled the tiny, offending scrap if fabric from her body, deliberately dragging it along her soaking wet flesh with wicked intent.

I moved down her prone body until my face was just above her soft, wet flesh. She was neatly trimmed and I found the sight of her, like this, was killing me. I wanted a taste, now.

I placed a chaste kiss onto her trembling thigh and then another slightly higher up. Her legs shook against my face as I licked at her, while my hands slid under her rounded ass lifting her up to my face.

Her whimpers and moans were incoherent, babbling now, as Bella fisted my hair and arched into me. Her taste was like nothing I'd ever experienced before, sweet and musky and delicious.

Bella was finally at my mercy, her soft curves and beautiful everything were mine.

I pushed two of my fingers inside her as I continued to suck and lick at her swollen flesh. She was so goddamn tight around my fingers, my erection twitched at the thought of being deep inside Bella.

Even though my need for her made no sense, it was a inescapable reality.

My long fingers had no trouble reaching her maiden barrier and I thrust against it testing to see how much pain I must inflict on her. It remained intact until, with a sharp, quick thrust I pushed my fingers through Bella's hymen. Because she was so hyped up on the euphoric sensation flowing between us she didn't feel it at all, just as I'd hoped.

The sweet smell of fresh blood filled my senses and my teeth elongated even more. I pulled my fingers out of her body and sucked them into my mouth just as I realised that Bella was watching me with a rapt expression. I grinned up at her as I snaked my tongue out and licked every drop of her maiden blood off of my skin.

Her cheeks flushed with rosy colour and I felt her shyness as if it were my own.

"Don't be embarrassed darlin', you taste so fucking sweet, I want to taste every inch of you."

Before she could utter a word I placed my mouth over her sex and tongued her hard little nub as fast as I thought she could handle. Her body bowed off of the bed and her muscles tensed violently as she orgasmed immediately, I sunk my fingers back into her welcoming warmth, enjoying the sensation of her inner muscles clenching around me.

"So sweet, Bella, so delicious." I cooned to her as I lifted my mouth to watch her beautiful writhing. "You feel so good wrapped around my finger, like warm velvet, darlin'. I want to be inside you so badly."

Bella's face was flushed with perfect colour, her eyes a glittering darkness, those plump lips parted a little to show two front teeth. Her eyes regarded me fearlessly although she felt shy at my words.

"I...I want you inside me Jasper, please take me now." She whispered. "I've waited so long, I can't wait any longer...now, please."

I rose over her slowly savouring the moment as I trailed my hands up her body, awakening a wave of goose flesh, at my icy touch. Our lips met with a sigh and I enjoyed the highly erotic act of sharing her blood with her. Nothing between us seemed wrong, we were simply two sides of the same coin. Our tongues tangled, mouths open wide as my erection settled between her soft thighs. I thrust against her slick wetness, allowing the head of my cock to slide inside her tightness a little at a time. With each thrust of my hips Bella's legs opened a little further cradling me in fucking heaven.

I coaxed her, feeling the impact of my voice and words on her. "Open up for me darlin', let me come inside you...aahhh, just like that, Bella...so fucking good."

Panting she moved with me, inviting me inside her honeyed depths.

Like poetry her thighs fell apart completely and I sheathed myself fully inside her body.

Pleasure, heat and tightness surrounded me and then pure joy.

Our bond shimmered around and through us as we began to move. Pleasure so intense it was almost unbearable flooded us both.

My face nuzzled into the fragrant curve of her neck and before I knew it my teeth were tearing through her soft flesh with a lush pop. Hot blood filled my mouth and I drank. Bella cried out in pleasure as I fed off her, no pain touched her at all, her hands holding me to her fiercely.

Her body quivered around mine as she came again, limp and yet unsated, she met my movements as if we were joined in an erotic dance. Her blood heated my cold body and I began to fill her veins with poison.

Even our bond couldn't prevent the searing pain of my venom. Bella's eyes were flung wide and she screamed as the poison took over, killing her a bit at a time.

I came hard, deep inside her and I stayed there as I injected more and more venom into her body.

I sealed the wound on her neck, and kissed her mouth softly. "I'm sorry darlin', this part always hurts like the devil himself. I will be with you every minute of it, I promise you that. You're mine now, nothing and no one will take you away from me."
