CHAPTER 2: Edward's pov

"No matter what happens, I will always love you." I reassured Bella.

"I love you too, Edward"

'Once the boy is destroyed, I will take Bella to be my bride.'

I turned toward the forest in anger at the newborn's thoughts. Not realizing that I turned away from Bella's frantic search for our last kiss, I took her warm, beautiful face in my hands and looked deep into her eyes. Her beautiful brown eyes suddenly turned to sadness as she looked at my face. It was unbearable to look at her sadness, so I looked at the hand that ran through her hair.

'I can't wait to see my beautiful Isabella in my mother's old wedding dress.'

Furious at the newborn's thought, the hand that was in-twined in Bella's hair clenched into a tight fist. Knowing that this was going to be our last kiss, I knew I should make it good. Roughly, but gently I pulled her face towards mine and kissed her passionately. I knew I was using too much force to kiss Bella, but I didn't care. Not if this was the last time I would ever see my one true love.

I didn't want this to ever end. I wanted to stand there with Bella for the rest of our lives, kissing her passionately, knowing that she was safe here in my arms. I pulled our lips apart, detaching her grip from around my neck, and pulled my hand gently from her hair.

"Always" I whispered.

"Always" Bella replied exhaling, her warm aromatic breath danced on my cheek.

'Bella will love me more than she ever loved that boy!'

"We attack in one minute." The newborn coven leader whispered to his newborn coven. He obviously didn't know I could read his mind. "Incapacitate the boy but do not kill him. I want him to watch me take Bella from him. DO NOT harm Bella, or it will surely mean your death!"

I stepped in front of Bella, wishing I could protect her more than this pathetic attempt.

'Bella will surely be mine! Before I make her a vampire we will have many children.'

"Don't even think about it." I whispered, knowing he would hear me.

"What are they saying?"

I felt Bella press her face into my back as the newborns flew out of the forest, and the one female newborn being ripped to shreds by the others, letting out a shriek of pain.

"You'll never take her! I won't let you!" I yelled angrily at the now visible coven leader.

"Au contraire, mon ami! I will have Bella all to my self very soon. I assure you." He said calmly back."I apologize, my name is François DeLasal. And your name I presume, must be, Edward Cullen. Am I correct?"

His thick French accent was tough to understand at times, but I got the jest of what he was saying.

"Yes, you are correct…about my name. The one thing that is incorrect is that you will have Bella. Bella is not yours to take. Bella is a free woman."

Before I could even blink, François had me pinned to a tree. Bella lay in the middle of the field un-conscious.

"Look at what you have done!" I yelled, shocked at what François had done to my beloved Bella.

François hesitated, and then looked at Bella. I was waiting for him to loosen his grip on my neck the tiniest bit so I could get to Bella and make a run for it.

He took his hand from my neck, and reached out toward Bella. I pushed myself from the tree like I was a spring.

'What have I done to my lovely Bella? What have I done?'

CHAPTER 3: Bella's pov

"Au contraire, mon ami! I will have Bella all to my self very soon. I assure you." He said calmly."I apologize, my name is François DeLasal. And your name I presume, must be, Edward Cullen. Am I correct?"

I could hardly understand him; he had a thick French accent. Uhh! French, I hate French!

"Yes, you are correct…about my name. The one thing that is incorrect is that you will have Bella. Bella is not yours to take. Bella is a free woman."

I peeked under Edwards arm to see Francois lunge at Edward.

EDWARD, NOOO! I screamed inside my head, to shocked to say them aloud. The French boy crashed into Edward, Shoving Edward's elbow to hit my forehead. The last thing I remember seeing is one single black cloud in the sky before I couldn't see anything. I could hear everything yet I couldn't see anything.

"Look at what you have done!" Edward yelled. Shock rang through his voice.

I felt cold rain drops on my skin, it felt good. I heard Heavy footsteps get closer and closer. With every moment I fell deeper and deeper into the darkness when I felt a ferociously cold hand on my face. This couldn't be Edward, not even Edward was this cold. The cold hand lifted my head, touching the back of my neck shocking me awake. I opened my eyes enough to see a blurry figure.

"Edward?" I managed to whisper.

I forced my eyes open, and looked around. Edward was about 10 feet away pinned to the ground by 5 newborns. I could tell He was struggling to get up and get me as far away from this French bastard as possible.

"OWW!" I yelled pressing my hand to my forehead. I pulled my hand away and looked at the pool of blood in my hand.
