Bella POV- My blood felt cold, and I was losing felling in my fingers. As I sat there, in Edwards arms, unsure of what was wring with me, I said the only thing that could fix this, "Change me." "Bella, there has to be something else we can do. I can't just-" I cut him off. "Edward you have to. Please." I begged. "Why, love?" His eyes pained me to look at. I couldn't tell him the secret I have been hiding for years. He wouldn't want me if he knew. He would leave me again and that scared me. Even though Edward promised her wouldn't leave again, I had a hard time believing it considering my situation. "Edward, there's something I need to tell you." My palms began to sweat and my heart beat sped up. He watched me as he waited for an answer. "I'm not human." "Bella I don't know what you mean." He looked confused. I had no way to tell him this without hurting him, or worse, losing him. And from our history, that didn't end well on either side. "I'm part of the crescent wolf tribe." I responded, my voice shaking. The look on his face told me everything. His eyes filled with confusion, and he sat there, frozen in his spot. "Bella, you know I love you no matter what." He explained. "But I am still not understanding what you are talking about." "I'm a werewolf." I told him. "But not like Jacob. I haven't activated my curse. To activate it, you have to kill someone before you are eighteen or you have to be in extreme panic. It only happens on a full moon and my bones break into the form of a wolf. I've seen it happen. It's painful, and Edward, I don't wanna go through that. Please." I was now in tears, full on crying. Edward just stared at me in shock, his eyes going back to the deep black that they were before. "Edward, please say something." But he said nothing. He just took my face in his hands and pulled me into a kiss. The electricity between us was nothing I have ever felt before. This kiss was different. My tears slowly dissipated and I would love to stay in here forever, but when he pulled away, a crooked grim came across his face. "Bella, love, I love you so much. We will fix this." He responded. A sudden bang rang out in the room, and Victoria and Riley were standing there. Edward ran at them, but she knew better. They grabbed his arms and but him in an unbreakable hold. Victoria, pushed down on his neck, causing a cracking sound to ring out. I heard Edward grunt my name, and that was what set me off. The sound of him in pain, in fear, made me defensive. He should never have to feel that. My angel deserves better than this. "Well, well. This is a first." Victoria spat. "Both of you completely helpless. And since Edward here won't let me get to you, I guess I'll just have to kill him instead of you." I quickly jumped up, and I felt the wolf inside me emerge. A sudden pain shot through my body, causing me to scream and fall to the floor. My bones were cracking, and before long, I became a wolf. My protective instincts over Edward took over, and I charges Victoria, causing her to let go of Edward and dodge me. Edward released himself from Riley, and ran towards him. He jumped on top of him , and put his neck into a choke hold so tight, his head was no longer connected to his body. I ran and continued to chase Victoria, distracting her from Edward. He quickly ran towards her, tackling her, and she had the same fate as Riley: decapitation. Edward stood up and looked at me, confused. This is what I was fearing.
