AN: Thanks to everyone who read and reviewed the last chapter.

This chapter is dedicated to Drish without whom I would still be sitting and staring at a blank page.

Disclaimer: Don't own nothing but Bella's siblings, the story line, Tess and 'The Grandmother.'

Bella's POV

The day of Edward and Tess's wedding had finally dawned. Although Alice and I had our suspicions of Tess, we had no evidence to support them.

I awoke that morning with a pain I had not felt for a while, one I had learnt to numb long ago. My heart, well what I had left of my heart, was breaking, shattering in to millions of tiny little pieces, leaving nothing but an empty space. I was numb all over, feeling nothing but dread about what was happening today.

I stood outside the church, surprised to see the many vampires turning up. Along with the Denali clan, were what Alice had informed me were the legendary Volturi. Along with whom I assumed were friends of Tess's.

"Bella." Alice came up next to me.

"What do we do, I mean do we tell him?" I sighed.

"Tell him what Alice, that his ex-girlfriend thinks his fiancé is controlling his mind?"

"He might believe us Bella; I mean it's not just you that thinks so."

"Yes and you're also my best friend, he will probably think you just want him to end up with me."

"I do though." She giggled.

"Maybe that's why you think she controls minds Alice, you just want a reason for us to stop this wedding and make sense of why Edward doesn't love me anymore." She frowned.

"Bella I really do think…" I cut her off.

"Maybe we should just leave it and try and be happy for Edward."

"You aren't really just giving up that easy are you Bella?"

"What other choice do I have? We should head inside." I said turning to enter the church.

"You coming?"

"In a minute."

"Ok" I said and went inside.

Alice's POV

I sighed and slide down the stone wall. I couldn't believe that Edward was about to marry Tess. I firmly believed that he didn't really love her, that Tess was playing with his mind. I sighed again, maybe Bella was right and I was seeing things, trying to find a reason for Edward's madness.

"So this didn't exactly go the way we planned huh?" Nate stood staring down at me.

"Not exactly."

"How's Bella?" he asked.

"She's trying to hide it but I can see it's hurting her so much." He frowned.

"I can't believe Edwards marrying her though, he's known her what a month?"

"A little over."

"Want to hear Bella and my theory?" I asked him.

"Sure." He said, sitting down next to me.

"We think Tess is somehow controlling his mind, it's not as stupid as it sound, he's so weird when he's around her, like she's the only thing in the world. But when she's not there it's obvious it's Bella he wants."

"I dunno, it sounds like love. Maybe he is just confused about his feelings for Bella, maybe he loves them both."

"No, I refuse to believe Edward doesn't love Bella anymore." I said. Nate sighed again.

"You can believe it all you want Alice, and hey maybe he does still love her. The point is Bella isn't the girl walking down that aisle in twenty minutes." He said standing and dusting the bottom of his pants.

"Come on" he said holding out his hand "we should get inside."

Emmett's POV

I stood watching Edward fidget with his tie. Although I was happy for my little brother, I still could not believe it wasn't Bella he was marrying.

"You sure you're doing the right thing?" I asked.

"I mean you've only known her like what, a month?" Carlisle and Jasper, who were also in the room looked warily between Edward and I, Edward was known for having a short fuse. Edward looked at me through the mirror, and it was at that moment that I realised Edward didn't actually want to be doing this. Or at least he wasn't sure.

"Yeah, course it is, I love her." He smiled weakly at me.

"Of course it is." He murmured under his breath.

Bella's POV

I sat next to Alice, Rosalie, Nate and Esme in the first pew nervously wringing my hands. Then Edward entered the room and my chest ached. He looked so handsome in his tux, seeing him dressed like that reminded me of that night long ago when he had taken me to prom. I sighed, prom that seemed like another lifetime ago.

The music began to play and everybody whirled around to watch Tess's bridesmaids walk in. we all rose as Tess came out looking like an angel in white. She slowly walked up the aisle to Edward who smiled and took her hand. Tears sprung to my eyes as I watched my one and only love about to get married to another woman. I zoned out after that, I concentrated only on Edward. My attention however was drawn back when I heard the priest say;

"Does anybody object to this union?" now was my chance I could stand up and object and tell Edward how much I loved him. Then what Bella? Another voice in my head said to me. What makes him think he's not just going to laugh in your face? So I stayed where I was. It was over; Edward and I were truly over.

However, fate has a way of intervening at the best of times…

"I do" I voice spoke.
