Chapter 4:


Bella's POV:


I awoke to a sharp pain in my wrist. I noticed my ribs were also very sore. I groaned loudly.

I looked around to see the blank white walls, I was still in this awful place.

There was a knock on my door then, "Who is it?" I mumbled. It was too quiet for whoever was behind the door to hear.

But then they surprised me by saying, "It's James, may I come in Bella?" He asked.

"Oh...uh, yes." I said still a little bit surprised. He opened the door and knelt on the floor to my level.

"Victoria told me to come tell you what happened since we heard you wake up." He looked into my eyes looking...sad?

I told him to go on but he hesitated. "Um..well you see..." James stumbled on his words. "Victoria told James to hurt you while you were asleep so you wouldn't escape." He said very quickly so I only just caught on.

"I thought she said she didn't want to harm me! What a liar. You people are sick-" He cut me off by punching me hard in the eye. I yelped loudly. "Ow! What's your problem?!" I yelled at him.

"Victoria already said, if you disrespect us we will punish you. Besides, that was only a light punch." He laughed evilly. Just then Laurent came in and shooed James out.

"Are you alright Bella?" He asked.

I ignored his question completely, "Why do you all want to hurt me?" I'd whisper sadly. I would probably get a black eye from Jame's punch.

"I do not want to hurt you Isabella!" He shouted, seething with anger. He looked as though he wanted to punch something.

"Then why would you knock me out and harm me!? Please explain because I do not understand obviously!" I yelled now too.

"Because I have to or else I will die! And you need me or Victoria will be worse! SHE COULD KILL YOU EASILY!" He punched the wall making a dent. "I love you Isabella Marie Swan! I will not let you die because of me!" He finished, sighing.

I gasped from his sudden outburst. Laurent loved me. My kidnapper loves me. I was too shocked I didn't know what to say. "You love me...Laurent?"

"Yes.." He said sounding depressed for some strange reason.


Laurent's POV:

I heard a punch then a yelp. I jumped up from the couch and ran into Bella's bedroom. I quickly shooed Jame's out, he grumbled as he left.

"Are you alright Bella?" I asked truely concerned. Her eyes had watered and there was a bruise starting to form on her beautiful face.

She ignored my question and asked one of her own, "Why do you all want to hurt me?" She whispered. Had I been human I wouldn't have heard, but since I was a vampire I heard perfectly.

Anger bubbled inside of me. She thought I wanted to harm her?! I growled, to low for any human to hear. "I do not want to hurt you Isabella!" I yelled. If I wasn't so angry, I would have winced at the volume of my voice.

"Then why would you knock me out and harm me!? Please explain because I do not understand obviously!"

"Because I have to or else I will die! And you need me or Victoria will be worse! SHE COULD KILL YOU EASILY!" I punched the wall making a large dent. "I love you Isabella Marie Swan! I will not let you die because of me!" I only then realized what I had said. Bella knew that I loved her. I sighed. I would protect her like a big brother should.

She gasped. I hoped she didn't hate me now. "You love me...Laurent?" She asked, sounding slightly breathless.

"Yes.." I then realized she might think I like her in a different way then how it is. "I love you...like a big brother would love her sister is what I mean Bella." I said.

"Oh...Thanks Laurent...I don't really know what to say to that considering you kidnapped me but.." She didn't bother finishing her sentence.

I nodded, understanding completely. I'd probably feel the same as her.

Her stomach growled suddenly. She blushed bright red. "Are you hungry?" I asked.

"Yeah.." I ran downstairs coming back up a hamburger. "I don't know what humans eat, is this enough?"

"It's fine, thanks." She took it from me and began to eat. I left the room to go guard the door.


James POV:

I listened to Laurent and Bella's whole conversation. Laurent had said he loved Bella and would protect her from me and Victoria. I needed to tell Victoria so we could kill him.

I raced to Victoria downstairs. "Victoria!" I yelled. She appeared in front of me with a blink of an eye.

"Yes?" She looked very cute. she had a short crop top and high waisted shorts.

"It's Laurent. He loves Bella and is trying to protect her from us. We need to kill him before it's too late."
