Edward's P.o.V.

I scurried away from the smell of Bella's luscious blood. I cannot believe I had put her in so much danger! I knew as soon as Carlisle had decided to take them in, it would put their lives and ours in danger. I knew I should've left the moment I smelt her. Her scent overpowered me. I almost pounced on her the moment it passed through me.

Not only that, but, I had actually gotten a taste of her delicious blood, and it was better than the smell. I had bitten her. I couldn't help myself. I was in frenzy when her blood was pouring from her body. I can still remember how easily my teeth slid through her skin. She had come so close to beginning the transformation into a monster. I should never have had been able to get that close to her and I never will again. I'm glad Carlisle was there to pull me off.

I still remember her the first time I saw her, though, before I even smelt her. She seemed to glow in the light and, even though she was human, she was beautiful. I felt my body grow just a bit warmer but I thought nothing of it, even though it felt strange. I couldn't take my eyes off of her. Her chocolate-brown eyes captured mine like they would never let go. The blush that crept into her cheeks was irresistible. The blood pooled to her cheeks and I almost gave away the 'Cullen secret,' as Emmett called it.

I eventually stopped in a small clearing somewhere near Juneau… I was pondering whether or not to visit our friends, the Denali's, but I decided against it. I just wanted to be alone. I sat down for a long while, but I wasn't keeping track of time. I was too far away from civilization to hear other's thoughts; it was a complete silence that surrounded me.

I began to have thoughts about the Volturi or maybe a werewolf… death was so much easier than this horrid existence. But, the moment I saw Bella, for some reason, I felt that I had a reason to be here, to continue existing, and that reason was closer to me than I realized. All of my memories of my life passed through my head, to my most recent memories. When Bella's face flashed by, my dead heart suddenly warmed, as if I were human again. What is this strange feeling? I ignored it before but, I just can't.

How was it possible? I had only met the girl 2 weeks ago. I had this strange empty feeling because I was away from her, like I was missing half of my soul. It infuriated me, why did I feel this way!?

I set off for home at the fastest speed possible. I had to see her. I had to apologize. I'm sure Carlisle had told them of what we were by now. And I knew she would have to forgive me, even though I was the worst selfish monster there was.

I was home in 30 minutes, to see the family all outside, standing shocked, and a foul odor stinking up the air, werewolf. I growled... I could faintly smell Bella's scent, leading into the forest. I \watched Carlisle's memories of the day, shocked. How dare those foul mongrels steal my Bella, my Bella? A fierce anger took over my senses. Jasper looked at me knowingly. I was confused by his gesture.

Oh, my god Edward Cullen is in love with my Bella! I keep having the feeling that I'm right, I mean, I'm never wrong anyways but, wow! We still have to get her back. It's the only explanation. It has to be right. This is just, wow! Alice thought. This… I'm not in love! Am I? I can't be. This can't be. I can't be in love with a human. This isn't possible.

I know what you're going through, Edward. It is love. I feel it. It's weird how someone has to tell you when you're in love but I've felt it rippling off of you since you saw Bella. You love her, man, and I love Alice, I think… I looked to Jasper after his rant in his head. I do love Bella? I can't believe it, I wont! It's not possible. It's irrational. A vampire cannot love a human. She could never love me back anyways. I love her.

I love Isabella Marie Swan.

"How shall we go at this?" Carlisle interrupted my thoughts, making me remember the events that had taken place.

"Well, they will be probably be coming back for Alice," Jasper said, being the most experienced in strategy in our family. I swear I saw a twinkle in that girls eye when he said her name.

"He is right," Alice said, staring at Jasper who stared right back. It's like they've known each other for years. This is too fast! Does she even know what we are.

Edward, you zoned out. Carlisle just told her. She's fine with it. Jasper informed me.

"They all will be coming, but they would probably leave one behind to make sure Bella can't get away." Alice said suddenly.

"How do you know?" I asked politely.

"I get these… feelings-"

That's all I needed to know before I cut her off, "I'll go get her, it would be easier for me to tell whether or not they were coming back or not," I said. It would only be right for me to get her, me who put her in this dangerous situation, me, who loves her.

"That would be best, but how will we know when they are coming?" Carlisle asked warily. I knew he was worried about me, but I had the best advantage against the wolves, knowing their thoughts.

"They'll be here in an hour," Alice said suddenly. I trusted her and raced upstairs. I needed to be prepared for what was to come.

Bella's P.o.V.

I was woken up by something cold being splashed on my face. I snapped my eyes open to see a russet skinned boy with an empty bucket grinning. I sat up quickly. I was soaking wet. I scowled.

"Who are you and why am I soaking wet?" I asked angrily.

"I'm Seth, and you wouldn't wake up so I dumped some water on you." He said timidly. I just growled. And that's when I remembered everything that had happened. The Cullen's were vampires. And I was bitten, by a vampire.

"So why am I here?" I asked.

"It is our duty, as werewolves to protect humans from vampires. Even though the Cullen's aren't supposed to be dangerous, they drink from animals, one of them bit you and that broke the treaty we had with them." He stated.

"What if we wanted to be there, what if we didn't mind?" I asked, "Do we not have a choice?"

"It is in your best interest to stay away from them though," he said.

"I want to see them! They are my family!" I screamed.

"You don't know what you're talking about! They could kill you!" he said, getting mad. His hands were shaking.

"I don't care! They are all I have!" I said. Just then, I heard the door being broken open, and a sharp burning sensation sparked in my heart.

"Edward," I couldn't stop myself from whispering his name before I fell unconscious.

Edward's P.o.V.

I followed Bella's wonderful scent to a house in La Push. Since the treaty was broken, I could cross the line. I heard the thoughts of the werewolf guarding Bella, he was young and inexperienced. I would not kill him if I didn't have to, but if it came to it I would. I burst through the door, just in time to see Bella fall to the ground whispering my name as she saw me.

I growled, and in a flash I was by her side and pickingher up. The werewolf growled back, but hesitated as he thought of what Bella had said to him. I was touched by her words. She thought of us as her family. He decided to let us go. He stood back and nodded. I nodded in thanks and ran away with her in my arms.

We were at the house in a flash, and I put Bella in Alice's room where Esme was sitting with them. The werewolves were outmatched, with a total of 5 werewolves and 3 very experienced vampires. They were dead already, this was a suicide mission.

A/N- she actually wanted to kill Jake but it's up to you guys! Do you want him to be killed or do you want him alive. Review it!!!
