You guys were great! That riddle was particularly confusing. The answer was the owner's son…;)
Chapter 11: My Angel:
EDWARD'S POV:I laid her softly on my bed and leaning over her, tucked her snugly underneath the covers. I looked down at her peaceful form. I suddenly had an intense desire to reach down and touch her full, red lips with mine… NO! That would be much too dangerous. Just me being in the same room as her was hazardous enough. I knew the beast within me wanted to do anything but comfort her. My mouth was pooling with venom but somehow I managed to control the rearing beast inside.
Within minutes she was asleep and I quietly leaned forward and kissed her forehead softly; "Goodnight my angel" I whispered. (A/N a special thank you to deaths daughter who helped me with the above paragraphs…I appreciate it! D)
For a moment I considered lying next to her, but thought better of it and headed towards my black leather couch, where I sat and watched her sleep.
She truly was beautiful. Her long brown locks gathered around her head on the pillow and a light flush tinged her pale skin. I watched as a small smile played on her luscious red lips while she slumbered. Suddenly she stirred in her sleep.
The unexpected movement disturbed the air and carried a fresh wave of her scent over towards me. It took all the strength I had not to jump up and attack her right there and then whilst she was asleep. I could feel the monster inside threatening to attack and my throat burned with prolonged thirst, but somehow I managed to hold on. I knew that a majority of my conscious only thirsted for her blood because of mind control, (A/N sorry if that doesn't make sense- it just means that he knows that one of the reasons he thirsts for her blood is because his mind is being controlled my his 'master'.) but I couldn't fight down feeling that the other half of my mentality was indeed just my natural instinct. ..But I didn't want to hurt this girl.
Ever since the day I first saw her 12 years ago (A/N Bella's 17) I knew she was special and was made to be more than anyone thought possible. I also knew that once I helped her I had to erase all memory of me- but I didn't count on seeing her again 12 years later. I just hope she hasn't recognized who I am.
There's still one more thing I remember from all those years ago…I was never able to read her mind. I still can't read her thoughts now and it angers me. I never used to know why my power didn't work on her and I still don't. I simply hope that in time I will be able to find out why.
She stirred again and mumbled something incoherent. I clenched my teeth but a low growl still escaped my chest. Suddenly I felt a wave of calm wash through me.
Stay calm Edward- you can't hurt her. I heard Jaspers voice inside my head and made a silent note to thank him later.
I turned back towards Bella. I watched as her chest rose and fell with each breath she took and I concentrated on the soothing sound of her hearts gentle beating.
How I longed to be human again. To be able to go out in the sunlight unafraid of being seen. To be able to dwell with other humans, not having to worry about my continuous blood lust… to be able to fall in love… (A/N sob-so sad.)
Bella was…least to say dear to me. I don't know her too well, and yet I have all these confusing emotions towards her. But nothing could happen between us- it's dangerous and forbidden.
And yet many say that the forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. Maybe I'm willing to take the risk of forming a relationship? Could I possibly be more than a friend to her?
I'll have to wait and see…but no matter what happens she will always be an angel.
My angel. Bella.

There you go!
I'm sorry it's short but it is REALLY hard writing Edward's POV- especially with all his 'mixed emotions' so to speak…;)
I'm sorry its taken so long to update but I have been SO busy with school- u have not idea!
Please review and here's your next riddle: a lorry attempted to drive under a low bridge but got caught underneath it. People stopped and tried to help the driver free the vehicle, but they couldn't push it either forwards of backwards- how did they eventually free his vehicle?
