A/N: Here's a short chapter for you guys.. Enjoy!

Bella/Belle POV - November 28th

Just getting home from work I walk through the door and spot Justin talking to Carlie in the kitchen. I feel so bad about yelling at him but that's what sisters are for right. To help you get your head out of your own ass but then again he has been avoiding me like the plague. Looking into the kitchen once more I make the decision to go talk to him. As I get closer I take notice that they are not alone. Leah, Joseff, Carlisle, Rose, Emmett, and Jasper are in attendance as well. This is weird. "What's going on?" I ask with slight confusion and curiosity in my tone. Everyone is staring at me now when Carlie speaks up. "Mom… Aunt Cassie and Jake will be coming home in 2 days time but they won't be alone." Waiting patiently she continues, "We were waiting for you to get home so I can tell all of you what's going on. Come sit so I can start." Sitting next to Justin I can sense his uneasiness so I look at him with a small smile then take his hand into my own. Showing the love I have in my eyes I feel the light squeeze before my daughter starts her explanation. "They will be accompanied by 4 others. Peter, Char, a child, and a nomad." A child? Why would there be a child? Unless… "Obviously everyone here knows who Peter and Charlotte are so I'm going to talk about the other two. The nomad, his name is Douglas. Mom and Uncle Justin know about this guy mostly because of how he freed Aunt Cassie when she was enslaved by her own birth father. However, Jasper knows him from the Southern Wars as well. Douglas use to fight with him, Peter, and Charlotte. The one thing I did want to reveal was the fact that this is the same guy who helped us escape when we first got kidnapped in Pennsylvania. Do you remember that mom? You said that everyone was dismembered but you didn't stay long enough to investigate. Douglas was the one that saved us. He heard Nathan and Victoria talking about the Cullen's and what she planned on doing to the wretched Swan. At first he wasn't too sure on what to do until we were actually captured. It was our scent that helped him make the choice. Don't give me those weird looks. Okay so Douglas doesn't remember his human history but I had a dream of this man and I know where he came from... His human name is Douglas Uley." What the fuck! "After leaving the southern camp he came across a woman, a native woman named Atarah." I gasp in shock when I feel my brothers hand tighten in my own! "Atarah was his mate, they had a son together whom he gave back to her people after the loss of his own mate. His son's name was Isaac White." Oh fuck! Shit just got a lot more interesting! "Uncle Justin, Douglas is your grandfather, my great grandfather who saved Aunt Cassie! Isn't this insane! And he is coming here to help us in the battle with Victoria. So when I told you that he decided to help us escape from Nathan because of our scent it's because I smelt like his mate, Atarah. You smelt like dad. His family. He wasn't there the second time we got kidnapped but when he found out what happened he came across Alice Cullen." My daughter is looking intently on Jasper and Carlisle now. "Alice was trying to stop Jasper from finding me, his mate. Douglas witnessed Alice and Victoria making a deal with one another. Alice would give my mother up to Victoria willingly if Victoria kills me in exchange."

Rage and death. That's the emotions I am feeling right now which confuses me since I was feeling fear just moments ago. Then I realize that Jasper is radiating his own emotions. Carlie steps towards her mate and engulfs him into a hug. "Major, calm down. I am safe, you will keep me and mama safe. Nothing will happen okay." When our Major embraces her she continues her tale. "What Alice didn't count on was moms suppose death. Carlisle remember when she called you to find out where we were after you rescued us? Alice believes that mom is dead and told Victoria that she should just kill off whatever family mom has left. Meaning me and Charlie. Alice has gone straight to the Volturi. She is making sure that the kings have knowledge of the newborn army that is being created by Victoria to destroy the Cullen Clan in hopes that they will kill me as well. This is something that Aro does not mind happening since he views this coven as a threat and with me a suppose human it isn't something they are worried over." Watching the betrayal and hurt cross Carlisle's face is not what my Carlie wanted to happen but it must be done. "Alice has joined the guard. Aro sees this as his gain but in actuality it will be his downfall. The psychic can't see anything we are doing. She is making up lies and now the threat of the Volturi is closer than I had anticipated. Instead of being here is late April they are bringing their entire guard, late February at the latest. We must let the pack know and find any others who may stand beside us when this comes. If they wish not to fight that is fine, I will protect them but everyone must know what is coming! The Blue Eyed Beauty will reign." After 5 minutes of silence Justin voices what I have been wondering the entire time… "Sweetheart? Who is the child that is coming with your Aunt Cassie?" Carlie has a frown on her face before all hell breaks loose. "His name is L.J. or Lucas Jayson White Uncle Justin…" Confusion is all you see from Justin until my daughter speaks the next words, "Uncle, L.J. is your son."

Sam POV - November 28th

I just got the strangest feeling in my gut when I get home. Like something bad is about to happen. Noticing this the first thing I do is call Elle, but there is no answer. Then I try Carlisle, Jasper, Emmett. Fuck. No one is answering their damn phone. Going on instinct here I shed my clothes and transform, running straight to my second home, Elle's. Reaching the house I can see my mate in the kitchen from this distance. Everything seems to be fine but why did I feel like I was being stabbed. Then I see it, Justin is running from the house and transforms mid jump before taking off in the other direction. Leah follows him but stops before collapsing into sobs. What the fuck? Finding one of my hidden cutoffs I pull it on before dashing towards my destination. Going through the back gate, up the stairs, I can still see Leah on the back second level porch crying. Following my imprints scent into the kitchen I suddenly listen to what is going on. "Just like me he is aging fast. When he gets here he will look like a 4 year old but in actuality he is only 3 and a half months old. I'm sorry if I withheld this information but we needed everyone's head into training. Aunt Cassie wanted me to tell you before they got here." What is going on? Entering the kitchen my mate looks between happy, sad, mad, and ecstatic. "Um, Hi…" Everyone looks at me with amusement before Elle is hugging me tightly. Wrapping her into my warmth I take in her scent and slowly ease my worry before asking. "So is there a reason behind my gut wrenching feeling I got earlier cause it only happens when something bad is happening?" Carlie just laughs at me before giving me a rundown on what's going on. Douglas Uley, Alice Cullen, Volturi, and Lucas. Forget the peace before the storm. Here we go again. "So I'm guessing that we are cancelling our movie night then?" I ask while looking down at my imprint. Shaking her head with a delicate smile. "No, we're still going. Why don't you get ready over here hon then we can head out."

We just got out of the movie that Carlie wanted to see so bad, 'Beauty and The Beast'. She said that it was a bedtime story that her dad would read to her all the time and she couldn't wait to see the actual movie. I gotta say that it was pretty good too. The beast was pretty bad ass! It's funny how Emma Watson was the princess considering how much she played a character who loved books on Harry Potter. These are some facts that my Elle made me aware of before we even sat down to watch the movie. It was an incredibly adorable moment where I wanted to ravish her but stopped myself before committing such an act in front of my adoptive daughter. "Baby girl? Where did you want to go eat tonight?" She goes into deep thought before saying "Chinese." Very well Chinese Buffet it is. We've been doing this thing where we try out different types of food every time we have family night. So far we had, Italian, Mexican, Irish, Greek, and Japanese. I'm not sure how authentic the Irish and Greek dishes were but our girl enjoyed it so there is no doubt that we'll be visiting it in the future. After dinner we parted ways with Carlie and Jasper so he could go hunting. Driving home with Elle is somewhat peaceful. She's humming along to the song on the radio, it's a nice silence like some people say. "Samuel?" Taking a quick glance at my girl, "Yes, sweetheart?" She is biting her lip and contemplating whether to ask me her question or not. I just let her think a little more so I don't interrupt any thoughts she might be having. "Take me home." Looking at her with bewilderment I am not sure how to respond to that since I am currently taking her home now? "Elle…" Seeing my face she understands how puzzled I am, "Samuel, what I meant to say was take me home… with you." Shock, extreme excitement and desire. That's some of what I am feeling right now. God no wonder Carlie rushed away, she knew what her mother wanted! Laughing internally I respond with the only words that are on my mind, "Babe, it'll be my pleasure…"
