Chapter 13 - Choices

Bella's Point of View:

Where was he?

I lay still while Alice's chiming voice was above me cautioning me to calm down. I looked around at the Cullen's that were remaining. Each had pity and sympathy for me. I could feel Esme's motherly presence and Carlisle's wisdom. I could sense Rosalie's concern. It was all too much to handle while I waited for my love.

It was hard to believe that I could be losing the love of my life; from a man who tried to take me away from him. How could I be so naive to let Edward go on his own? I knew someone needed to go and help them.

"Carlisle something's wrong; you need to go and check!" I looked straight towards Carlisle's standing body.

"Bella, it'll be okay. They are probably looking for the pieces and plus they need to maintain the treaty. I am sure Jasper has the situation under his control" he replied with authority. In an odd way I was comforted by his confidence.

"Okay, but can you please go check if they don't return in the next 15 minutes?"

"Yes I will" he replied back and then made his way up the stairs towards his office.

I decided I could not wait any longer so I swiftly got to my feet and headed to the door but Alice's tight grasp around my arm pulled me back. Rosalie stood infront of the door and Esme patted the seat beside her on the couch. I could barely manage to stand my sides were missing; and worse of all my core was missing the core that comprised of Edward. I knew I was defeated that I would just have to wait and see what would happen. But I knew whatever was about to happen was not going to be good...

Edward's Point of View:

Emmett, Jasper and I all braced ourselves as the dogs circled around us. I kept a clear gaze with Sam who seemed as if he had taken the Beta position of the pack. 'Let's finish them off' 'Why wait I have a clear angle to the blonde one' 'Come on Sam we can take the big one easily' the dogs were going wild with ways to kill us.

"Edward he's not coming back," Emmett whispered beside me.

"Wait Emmett, we must be patient" I mumbled back.

It was hard to believe that Jacob would take this long to find her pieces. Was he really even gone to get the pieces? It was all too confusing to decipher my thoughts while listening intently to the pack's mind. I could hear the vial thoughts of the pack who at any moment could become unrestless and rip us to shreds.

'You know what it's obvious that Jacob wants no part of this so I think it's only right to just finish them for him' the wolf that was Paul was thinking. I glanced over at Paul's wolf body; his teeth were exposed in pleasure.

'I second that' another smaller dark brown wolf thought back.

I instinctively crouched down in a defensive pose I knew it was going to happen any moment. I looked over at my two brothers' who also followed suit. "Wait..." I replied back calmly. We were severely out numbered. Could Jasper's calming effects and my ability to read minds help us?

A growl ripped threw my teeth as I looked behind Emmett's broad shoulders; it was the dark brown wolf that was leaping towards Emmett. I jumped quickly up at the same instant and pushed the wolf straight to the ground.

I held the wolf between my hands. "Stop! If you want your brother to survive. Sam control the pack at once!" I yelled back.

Everything went calm; Emmett and Jasper remained in their defensive crouches as the wolves remained ready to pounce at any sudden movement. I grasped the dog between my hands holding him tightly to the ground.

"Jacob! HURRY!" I yelled into the open forest.

At that moment I knew if he did not come within the next few seconds blood would be shed. I knew I could no longer honour the treaty that had held me there; while my wife was crumbling away. I knew that I could no longer protect Bella's love. Bella needed to understand that her best friend could no longer be her best friend he was now her enemy.

Jacob's Point of View:

I looked around at my destroyed garage. It was the same place that I had savagely ripped the love of my life apart. I looked on the ground and instantly found her battered pieces. I picked up the sides of her and held them tightly in my hand. The stench of her body was disgusting to me now.

My beautiful Bella was amazing before and now she was a monster like them. I had found all the pieces but for some reason I couldn't go back to the place where we had just been with the Cullen's.

I knew I had to morph back and meet them at the clearing but for some reason I just could not make myself do it. It was a decision I had to make, either I could let Bella live as a monster away from me. Or I could burn the pieces and by the time I get back to the clearing my pack would have destroyed the other blood suckers. Could I honestly destroy the blood suckers who had destroyed my innocent Bella? I needed to make a choice and a choice now.

I got up and found a box of matches I held it in my hands that were now shaking. I knew what I had to do. I began running towards the clearing holding Bella's pieces under one arm and the match box with the other.

I made my way towards them when I got closer I could see my brothers circling the three bloodsuckers and one was holding down my brother. I was astonished why would Edward be hurting my brother did he not care about the treaty? Did he not want his wife's pieces? Well I guess it's on bloodsucker.
