In the Middle of the Bed.
Bella counted small little peices of chocolate, she was making a type of cookie with the one cook in the house, and she needed to count an even amount of chocolate because of how superstitious the cook was. Edward was standing, pacing in his study...
Edward was going insane. It has been a week since he was able to even take Bella. She was on her monthly, and was not able to do anything, she was laying in her bed most days, her family has always suffered from painful monthly bleeding. Edward shook his head at the thought of just getting a whore for the night, no, that would be disrespectful to his future Dutches. Edward sighed, he ran his calloused fingers through his already ruffled bronze hair. What could he do? Not very well take her forcibly while she had her monthly. He'd never take her forcibly at all, for that matter. Edward nibbled on his lip for a short period of time until he tasted the metallic taste of blood.
Edward walked out of his study into the kitchen where he knew Bella was. She was making chocolates with the cook, she wore a big smiled as she saw him come into the kitchen. Edward smiled at her, and he had hoped covered up his dissappointment, but by the looks in Bella's eyes, he had not. Perhaps it was his ruffled hair that tipped her off, or his sweaty hands, or maybe his stressed face. He was trying to smooth out everything, so that Bella did not feel so awful.
"What's wrong?" Bella asked him, he looked down, feeling almost embarrassed to admit it, but he had to explain it.
"Do you still have your monthly?" Edward asked quietly, Bella's eyes suddenly widened.
"Yes." Bella said in a quite, low, and unhappy voice, "If you wish I'll call upon one of the servants to get you a whore..." Bella said looking down at her slippers, Edward looked at her, his eyebrows furrowed with pain.
"No, I can wait, love." Edward said, Bella brought her face up and smiled, he smiled too, and took her chin and kissed the top of her head, and smiled. "You go on and watch the cook now." Edward said quietly and kissed her hand, "I have some things to attend to."
Edward walked to his study and looked over a bunch of papers that was for Mr. Derrick's home. Bella was badgering him so she could go see the children. She wanted to learn how to make chocolate so that she could bring some for the children and feel proud enough to admit she made it. Edward sighed and tried to busy himself with some work hopefully there was some estate that needed fixed, or some bills from the estates that he had recently fixed.
That petty filing seemed to work, but after a while his mind would wander too thinking about the valley that was between Isabella's breasts, the sweet beautiful pink of her nipples. Everything about her made him instantly ache with the need to be touched. He tried to remember what he did to get his mind off of this constant ache, and that was sleep with many woman at a time, which wouldn't suffice now. Not since he had already had the real thing that was a most exquisite Isabella.
A knock interrupted his thoughts; though his mind still cloudy with thoughts about Bella; there she stand before him.
"Yes?" Edward asked innocently, his eye brows raised with inquirey.
"Edward, you've been up here for hours, if you're in need of a service you could go and find a whore..." Bella said innocently, she looked down at the floor, her face blushing in crimson.
Edward stood up and looked at her, his face showing rage, possibly even embarrassment. "I do not require a whore. I require you." Edward sneared, Bella looked down and sighed. A moment passed, Edward's hands still on his desk, eyes still holding an angry look, and his chest still heaving with painful looking breaths.
A smile slowly appeared on Bella's face, and you could tell she was up to something indeed. Edward looked at her, his eye brows now arching and connecting together.
"Perhaps I could service you then." Bella said quietly.
"You're on your monthly." Edward scoffed at her as if she were a child.
"I could do it with my mouth..." Bella said quietly, Edward looked over, his eyebrows raised and he smiled. "If you'd like, Master." Bella said as she bowed to Edward; Edward's mouth parted slightly, as if he were going to protest.
"Is that what you want, Isabella?" Edward asked, there was no answer from Bella, "I said, is that what you wish, Isabella? Answer me."
"Only if it will please you, Master." Bella said quietly, she looked over at him, she went to her knees and looked up at him, hoping that what ever she was doing would make him happy.
"I do believe I would enjoy it, that is, if you do not mind?" Edward said, it was the first time ever that Edward had ever asked if a submissive if she minded. He couldn't very well make Bella do something in a barbaric manner, she was going to be his wife, and he had to give her some sign of self respect while they played their little games.
"Yes, Master." Bella said quietly, Edward stood infront of her and smiled.
"Then take off my trousers." Edward said in a dominating tone.
Bella did as he said and removed his trousers and everything else until Edward was standing naked and at attention to her. Edward smiled at her, as Bella looked up at him through her dark, brown eye lashes. Edward nodded and then Bella took that as her permission to begin.
She took him into her mouth, his warm skin in her mouth felt like hot lava to him, he could almost feel himself getting burnt on contact, and he loved it. Her tongue swept around the head of his cock, almost making him twitch with joy, with anticipation. He was waiting so long for a release, four days, almost five. It was pure torture for a sex addict such as himself, and with out him being able to bring whores into the house, it was almost unbearable.
Bella's mouth filled with him made him smile. He couldn't believe how beautiful her porciline face looked while it had his cock inside it. Her lips were turning a wonderful shade of pink, her cheeks brought inward to give him more pleasure, just as he had told her to do. Her tongue touched his shaft and made him shiver with lust. He closed his eyes, ignoring the beautiful image of Isabella sucking him.
Edward helped Bella keep up the speed, and he held her head steady while he pumped into her sucking mouth, her delicious tongue waiting for him every time he pumped in and out of her mouth. Edward sighed and smiled to himself as he felt himself almost ready to release his seed into her mouth, his balls tightening.
"So very close, my Isabella. Ready yourself." Edward told her as he rubbed her head, appreciatively, even.
A large groan erupted from his lips as he felt his release and his seed spread into Isabella's mouth, which she swallowed gratefully. After swallowing all that Edward gave her, Bella released him from her mouth, and she wiped her lips in a mannerly fashion. A smile went to her lips, and Edward looked down at her and smiled.
"Thank you, Bella." Edward said to her, she smiled up and nodded to Edward. Edward gave her his hand to help her up, and she stood up, looking him in his green eyes with her brown eyes.
"You're welcome, Edward." Bella said smiling, Edward smiled back.
"Are you going to the Derricks today?" Edward inquired as he walked over to his desk, he was going to give her some money in order to stop and buy treats of some sort.
"No, not today, I plan to wait after my monthly, so I do not appear irritable or angry to the children, you know how I can get sometimes..." Bella said as she wiped her hands on her gown, it was a nervous habit she had acquired when she was smaller.
"Come," Edward pulled her to his desk, and he smiled at her, he sat down in his chair and looked up at her as she looked over his shoulder. He put his hand in a small antique box that was made for him as a child, he had called it his hope chest, and inside it held a few pieces of sentimental things. One of which was a necklace he had bought for Isabella when they were younger, but she never gave him the chance to give it to her, as it were, she was pulled away for her lady training, and when she returned a woman, Edward had almost forgotten her, how he could not understand, but he had. The necklace had gone untouched, until now.
He pulled out the necklace he bought so many years ago at a market, from an elderly Indian woman who had made it. It was a necklace with an I charm, which he had put on himself, with the help of the Indian lady and it was surrounded by the most beautiful blue sparkling beads that the Indian woman had made. Bella's eyes instantly looked at the necklace with shock, and appreciation.
"Kneel down so I can put it on you." Edward requested in a very soft, gentle tone. Bella did as Edward asked, and kneeled down, holding her hair up so that he could tye it behind her neck.
"It's wonderful." Bella said as she touched the stirling sliver I that hung in the center, she caressed it with such appreciation.
"I bought it long ago, I am sure the woman who made it is long gone, however, I bought it when I was about thirteen, for you, but then you went away to learn womanly ways, and I had... Selfishly forgotten you, and I was looking through my hope chest, in hopes to find something that had not been full-filled, and I would have to say, there is but one thing left in there that hasn't been filled yet." Edward said in thought, Bella stood and looked into his green eyes, they were clouded with though, and it was sincere thought.
"What has not been fullfilled?" Bella inquired, her finger tips still moving across the sliver I. Edward's green eyes met Bella's, and he smiled.
"To full-fill my destiny, to have a family... With you." Edward said, Bella's head lifted, her head now wandering with thoughts of what exactly that met. She knew it had to do with why the marriage was arranged, and why it had dealt with the King.
"Destiny? Pray tell." Bella requested with some authority in her voice, Edward faked a smile and had a dreamy look in his green eyes.
"Just, I had always known you were the right one for me." Edward said quietly. Bella sighed, she knew she wasn't going to get the real story, no matter how much he'd accidentally let any words close to of it slip out, he'd not divulge the whole truth.
"Thank you, Edward, it's truly magnificent." Bella said smiling down at him, he nodded and smiled at her.
"Just a token." Edward said, as if it had been something old, and over used.
"Of?"
"Excuse me?" Edward asked, he furrowed his eyebrow in confusion.
"A token of what, Edward?"
"Of my love." Edward said effortlessly, his eyes were clear, sincere, even. She smiled and nodded, she kissed his cheek and looked at the grandfather clock which ticked at the far side of Edward's office.
"It's almost dinner." Bella said quietly, Edward looked up and nodded.
"So it is. Go dress, I'll be down shortly." Edward said quietly.
Edward marvled at himself in the mirror for a while, thinking of how young he looked, how young everyone in his family looked. His mother, Esme, had no wrinkle on her perfect, angel face. Her eyes were always so warm, and knowing, they were a wonderful crystal blue. His father's eyes, so green, and mysterious. Alice's eyes were the same as Esme's maybe a bit darker, with mystery. Emmett got the full thrash of mother's looks, his eyes a baby blue, which showed honor, and love. Edward looked into his eyes.
His eyes did not say mystery, did not say honesty, nor love. It said danger. He always hated looking to the mirror to see his glassy, green eyes that were always in a clouded glaze after having been satisfied. Edward cleared his throat one last time and then fixed his color on his shirt, he looked at his messy, unruly hair. The bronze was extra red today, perhaps because his hands had grease on them, and he kept ruffling his hair. Perhaps because he was frustrated all day until Isabella relieved him. Edward shrugged, with any way, he'd figure it out.
Edward walked down, and joined Bella at the table, Bella still touching, still admiring the wonderful necklace that had been placed upon her wonderful, graceful, elegant neck. Jessica, was the first to notice.
"Why Ma'am, that's a wonderful necklace." Jessica said, reaching out to touch the wonderful, untarnished, silver that hung from Bella's necklace.
"Thank you, Jessica, it was a gift."
"From whom?" Jessica asked, her questions angered Edward, what business of hers was it where Bella had gotten the necklace? The fact of the matter was is that it was on her neck now, and that her dirty whore hands should not be touching it.
"From me." Edward said in a stable, monotone voice which hinted at annoyance.
"Well, you've good taste, my Lord." Jessica said curtsying and walking out of the room. Bella looked down at her plate and pushed her grape around with her fork.
"Are you not hungry, Isabella?" Edward asked as he cut into the fine pork steak that was placed on his plate.
"Not exactly, Edward." Bella said quietly, "I find my stomach a bit upset."
"Why?" Edward asked, his fork and knife placed aside, his face white washed with worry. Bella fanned her hand at him, as if for him to brush it off.
"I'm fine Edward." Bella said as she began to eat a grape carefully, trying not to taste the wonderful taste of the juicy, succulent fruit. As soon as the juices squirted into her mouth, she began to gag.
"That is it, I'm calling upon a doctor." Edward stood up from the table, Bella stood as well.
"No, Edward, I beg of you. I am fine." Bella pleaded, Edward looked at her, he walked over and held her face in his hands, his green eyes staring into her green, opaque eyes.
"How is this so when a mere grape sickens you. Tell me what ailes you, so that I may make you better." Edward pleaded her, Bella put her hand ontop of his hand which was placed on her cheek.
"Nothing ails me." Bella denied.
"Then you are a liar at best." Edward said in pain, why would she not share this with him?
"I'm not lying. I am not sick, Edward." Bella defended, her heart obviously hurt by such an accusation.
"Then why does food sicken you? Surely it is not your monthly." Edward scoffed at her, hoping to get the answer out of her from acting so bitter.
"It is your seed," she said in a small voice. "It sickens my stomach for a while." Bella said quietly.
Edward's face fell, how could he be so ignorant. Of course, it was his seed, his seed was of course not the best tasting he was sure of it. Edward sat down, and Bella returned to her seat, in walked Jessica, because she heard raised voices.
"Something wrong, My Lord?" Jessica asked.
"No, not at all. Get spearmint from the kitchen, it would seem some thing's bothered Bella's stomach." Edward said as he placed his pointer finger at his left temple and began to massage.
"As you wish." Jessica said as she walked away.
"I'm sorry. A woman is to never disrespect you in such a manner." Bella said as she placed her head in her hands, her elbows resting on the table, her plate pushed out into the center of the table.
"You do not disrespect me, love. You tell me the truth, which is honoring me." Edward said quietly, he took a glass and filled it with a near by brandy bottle and drank it slowly.
"Do you wish me to leave?" Bella asked, her head still down, her hands playing with each other on the top of the desk.
"Do you wish to be excused?" Edward asked, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion.
"No."
"Then no, I do not wish you to leave." Edward said quietly, "I would actually like to talk about the Derricks." Edward said, he began to eat his steak as Jessica came in with a bowl full of fresh spearmint leaves for Bella to chew on.
"Thank you." Bella said quietly to her, and then look to Edward, "what is it?" Bella asked as she placed a leaf in her mouth gently.
"They seem like a very nice family, do they not?" Edward asked, Bella looked up and smiled.
"Why of course."
"Do you believe I should invite them to the Christmas party next week? It is after all the end of November." Edward said quietly, Bella smiled.
"I believe that is a delightful idea, Edward."
"Splendid, next week, after Thanksgiving you can go on a trip, bring the children presents and sweets, and then tell them of the party." Edward said smiling as he took one of his grapes and pealed the skin off of it skillfully.
"I would enjoy that," she said smiling.
Dinner finished with Edward eating his fill and Bella chewing on half a bowl of spearmint leaves. Bella went to her room, to marvel on the necklace that Edward had gave her, and Edward went to his chambers and laid in his bed for hours. He thought about when he first had bought the necklace. It was the first time his father had let him go to the market on his own, because he had now trusted Edward not to buy something useless and something that was piece of junk.

"What type of stones are these?" A young Edward asked an elderly woman. She turned around to see Edward grasping a necklace with blue beads.
"Why those are from a mountain, it is from my home villiage." The old lady said smiling.
"What is it called?" Edward inquired, intriqued by the shine of the beads.
"We call them blue sandies." The woman said smiling, "well, I do."
Edward smiled, the elderly woman had a crinkled smile, her dark brown eyes were very knowledgeable. Her clothes were made of deer skin, and her hair was done in grey Indian braids which had red feathers in them.
"What type of feathers are those?" Edward asked, the woman touched her hair, a smile was found on her face again, she smiled at him, laughing quietly.
"Such an inquisitive boy, aren't you?" She asked smiling.
"I just like to ponder where things come from and if they are worth they're price."
"I paid nothing for these here feathers. I got them off of a robin." She said quietly, touching her hair once again to refer to the feathers.
"And it just let you take them, pluck them right from it's breast, did you?" Edward asked skeptical.
"No, no, dear child. I never pluck, no." She shook her head laughing, "I had one as a pet once, I did. She'd shead these feathers and grown new ones. I'd clean her cage and I'd keep them for my hair." She said smiling, Edward smiled.
"How much for the necklace?" Edward said holding up the necklace.
"Oh, boy, it's very expensive." The woman said looking at him, a look of sympathy crossed her face.
"I'm one of the richest dukes around. How much?" Edward asked patiently. The woman raised her eye brows and pointed to the price, Edward smiled and pulled out twice that.
"This is more than needed, child." The woman said sweetly.
"Consider it a thank you, for the story, and also, pay for something I do believe I need help with." Edward said as he pulled out a silver I from his pocket. "I need to place this in the center." Edward said smiling with his crooked smile.
"I've just the thing." The woman said, she took the I and the necklace and skillfully put them together and held it to Edward.
"Thank you, ma'am." Edward said smiling.
"My name is Ravenwing. What is yours?" The old lady said smiling.
"Edward Cullen." Edward said smiling.
"It was nice to meet you, Edward."
"As you, Ravenwing."

Edward arose from his bed, and walked to Bella's room where he found her reading a book on her bed.
"Something the matter, Edward?" Bella asked quietly, her body falling from her bed, meeting him half way across her room.
"Would you allow me to keep your bed warm?" Edward requested, Bella smiled and nodded.
"But of course." Bella said, she layed in the center of the bed, and Edward crawled in with her, kissing her neck and humming a sweet sound in her ear.
"Edward?"" Bella asked, Edward smiled to himself.
"Yes, my love?" Edward said smiling into her shoulder.
"Tomorrow is my last day of my monthly."
Edward went to bed with a smile on his face, his hands wrapped around Isabella's body and Bella fell asleep her hands on her chest, her fingers touching the silver I which filled her with such joy. Her heart filling with joy of Edward, her new life, her wonderful gifts that Edward had so graciously given her, and of course one thing that had made her more joyfull.
Edward was finally warming the center of her bed, the warmth of his heart was warming her and also her bed, which was something that no man could ever take a way from her and Edward, not even the King himself.
