SONG: Diary Of Jane by Breaking Benjamin
**A/N: if you didn't read EPOV: That's fine! you didn't need to :o)
all that happened was Jacob came and visited Edward and told him that Koda "took" Bella. he just thought of ways to kill Koda. haha, that's it. it was short.

Bella's POV.

I thought it was a nightmare. One that would be over in a few minutes and then I would wake up in Edward's arms; he'd kiss my forehead and tell me good morning.

Only it wasn't.

It wasn't a nightmare; I wouldn't wake up in Edward's arms.

"I think she's waking up," I heard a familiar husky voice murmur. I remembered the voice instantly, and the last words that had been said.

You aren't going home to your precious little Edward. He isn't safe for you.

Koda.

I shot up straight from where I was laying down. Hadn't I passed out in the car?

"Bella?" Koda asked. I opened my eyes warily.

It looked like a little cottage. The ones with the rug in the middle of the wooden floor, the flowery couch, the fireplace that was always burning, and the coffee table in the middle of the room. There were no windows, just a single door facing west.

I saw many unfamiliar people in the room. I didn't count, but I guessed there was about ten of them. They were sitting on various chairs, some on the floor. And they were all staring at me.

"Bella?" Koda asked again. I turned to him and found him sitting on a chair next to the couch I had been laying on.

I heard someone snort in amusement. "Good job, Koda. You picked a mute," I looked over at the person who said it. He looked like Koda, but less muscular and with longer hair. His nose was slightly crooked and his eyebrows were raised in amusement.

"Shut up," Koda mumbled and touched his fingers on my arm. I flinched away. "Bella, it's okay." I looked over at him and saw him staring intensely into my eyes. I became angry.

"Okay? You think its okay to kidnap someone just because you're selfish?!" I yelled.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a few of the people in the room shake their heads. Some nodded; others flinched back from my sudden outburst.

"Fiery one, eh?" the one who had called me mute asked.

"Miles, put a sock in it," said a deep voice. I looked over to see a seemingly older tan-skinned male in a rocking chair. He looked about twenty. Older than me, and definitely older than Koda.

"Sorry," Miles mumbled.

"It was for your own good," Koda began, ignoring the conversation the others were having. I turned back to him. "He isn't safe for you."

"Are you sure about that? Because I don't know if you've realized, but being kidnapped by someone you don't know, who takes you away from your family and friends, doesn't exactly scream safety," I retorted bitterly, turning so I could sit up straight on the couch.

"I didn't have a choice, understand that," he begged, trying to put his hand on my arm again. The look I gave him made him rethink that action. Koda retracted his hand back.

"Understand?! You chose to take me away, to take me here without my consent! You had a choice!"

"Bella," spoke the older man again. I turned to him. "Please, what Koda had to do was extremely difficult, more than you can understand. You are his soul mate. His other half, if you will. And having a relationship with a vampire over someone who would make you extremely happy is not sane."

"I have a soul mate, and you took me away from him. This is a federal offence; you know you could be arrested, right?" The older man nodded.

"Yes, we realize the risk. But we think it's worth it."

I shook my head and crossed my arms. "I am going home."

"Bella," Koda said. I didn't turn to him. "This is your home."

"What?! Being who knows where with a bunch of strangers and some guy I just met who kidnapped me from my life? That's home?!" I yelled, completely furious.

"I'm sorry," Koda murmured. I looked at him. He had his head in his hands. "I had to, Bella, I had to. You are my life."

The words he spoke stung me. They sounded all too familiar.

"Koda, no. You will take me home."

This seemed to make him angry. He looked up at me, "No."

"Yes, you will." I tried to sound stern.

"I can't. Not now. Now that I know who you would go back to. It took everything I had not to run into town and murder your dear Edward myself. I won't hand you back to him."


A/N: for future refrence, the older guy's name is Lucas. So if you see me refer to him, that's his name :)
