Hey, I know people are going to complain about the length, but I'm happy just to get a chapter up. I'm sorry about not updating consistently. I've still got to get my computer fixed. The whole situation sucks. But that's beside the point. Happy reading!

Chapter 20 - Research

Edward admitted to his fear; he didn't want to change my kids. He didn't want them to be like he was. And he also admitted something else - he didn't want to change them because he knew he'd have to change me. Even though he told me this, he admitted he'd have to do these things anyways. He used his timeless excuse: he was selfish.

Then, the day came when Carlisle called me into his office. He sat me down and said, " I've found some information that you might be interested in." I almost blew Edward's cover by telling Carlisle that I knew.

He kept a serious face as he explained. Then he gave me a two-inch-thick manilla envelope. " This will contain all of my research. If you want to pursue this choice, then let me know. Edward's already voiced his concern to me. I told him this was not all his decision. Do what you think it right." I nodded and thanked him before leaving the room.

When I walked into my room, I saw Edward holding Rachel. He was smiling. There was a familiar look on his face - love. Except this love was a bit different than the kind he showed towards me; it was as if Rachel was his own.

He looked up at me and asked, So, how'd it go?" I said teasingly, " Like you don't know." He shrugged his shoulders and answered, " True." He set Rachel back down in her crib and came to sit on the bed. " So...need help." I smiled before handing him a handful of information. I picked up a newspaper article from the early nineties.

Werewolves turned vampire? This mystery has yet to be solved. Legend says that several werewolf children were adopted by vampire parents. Supposedly they were changed into vampires. A vampire clan threw out the idea of trying to pull this maneuver again. Who knows? It may work.

Ugh. That is not what I needed. Then, I spotted the blog headline: Werewolves Turned Vampire - The Truth

We are a group of vampires residing in Southern England is a town called Applebrooke. The oldest of us was a werewolf's child. He knows the truth. If a werewolf is changed before the age of fifteen, then the werewolf trait will be erased from their DNA.

" Edward! This is it!" He looked up, surprised by my little outbreak. He took a look at the page. He looked at it and said. "The only way to know for sure is to try."

I smiled, getting his hint; we were going to England.
