So, so, so, so, so, so sorry it took forever to update! My labtop crashed and my scheduale has been hectic and.... ugh! I know how much i hate it when authors are this late but here it is! Hope you enjoy! My next one will probably be longer cause I really have been focusing on Ivy and Emmet but next chapter I'm probably going to focus on the family's supision of Ivy because that sets everything up I think.... Don't worry if it seems like Rose is being to soft, she isn't too happy about this, you'll see more of that in the next chapter.

REVEIW, REVEIW, REVEIW, REVEIW!!! I cannot tell you how much your thoughtful reveiws help and motivate me =]. I'll try to get the next chapter in quicker.

"Hello?" she whispered. I was too far away to hear what the other person was saying but I heard her side of the conversation perfectly. "What are you tracking me down or something, bagging and tagging me like some animal…what do you mean side effects…well it happens when I'm feeling a lot of emotions but I can control it most of the time…look what did you do to me…oh great, are there others like me, does the government know what you're doing…am I like some test animal…what power, it's turning me evil…I just wanted a normal life, I was ignoring that part until you gave me some kind of booster…people are getting suspicious…just leave me alone!" She screamed, slamming the phone to the ground and falling to the ground. I ran back to the house, waiting for her arrival.

Chapter Five

Emmet's POV

She didn't get in till about fifteen minutes. Staggering as she walked, I could tell she had been fazed by this conversation. Her eyes seemed glassed over, dead to a human's eye and her steps were not as graceful as they once were. I almost had a heart attack, watching her as she looked like the dead, her skin a pasty white. Her mouth was set into a grim purse, warning me of the storm that was about to come, but she just stood with her back pressed against the door like she was afraid to come near me. I didn't blame her. She opened her mouth to say something; it seemed to hang open for a minute or two before speaking. "I have to go out, I'll be back later." She started to turn her back to me but I called back to her, feeling irritation creep up my spine. I want to tie her down so that she would just stay still. I might have to, I thought bitterly.

"Wait one second," I grounded out between clenched teeth. She looked at me, wearily. I bore my eyes at her and stood up, slamming the chair to the ground. She jump at the racket, shock over taking her eyes. I advanced towards her quickly, pressing her against the cold glass of the window, watching her shiver between the two ice blocks that were pressing into her.

"Em…" she breathed, her chest heaving up and down against mine. I lowered my face to kiss her eye lids. Her breathing was shallow as she glanced up at me. I lightly touched my lips with hers.

"How bout I take you out tonight?" I asked after I released her mouth. It would be a good chance to let her wind down to the idea that I would be with her now. Something lifted in her eyes, a shine was there. I was going to do anything in my power to make it seem like I had never left, though it never would be completely same. But I knew she liked clubs, they were her favorite part of being a party girl. I was just glad I would be there to help her from those drunken idiots and herself. I kissed her again then whispered in her ear, "Go find Alice; I'm sure she has an outfit for you."

"Are you serious!" she smiled at me; I knew this was a surprised to her, seeing how I hated when she went clubbing. I nodded, caressing her face in my hands. She squealed, jumped and wrapped her arms around my neck. "Thank you! I love you!" she kissed my cheek and bounded off, leaving me stunned. She had just said she...loved me. I smiled, surprisingly, not caring if it was her instant reaction but that she had said the words to me. If a vampire could faint I was sure on the verge of it. I sat down on the chair, listening to her and Alice converse, molding their gap and becoming friends once more. I think I was stunned, if that's what you would call it; I was in shock.

I just stared up at the ceiling for the rest of the time Alice was 'doing up' Ivy. I replayed her words over and over in my head, the way they rolled off her tongue effortless and the way they were directed at me. The way she loved me and only me. I would never be able to leave her again. I was simply not strong enough. Her enchantment, her spell over me was more powerful than I would ever be. I was simply stuck, trapped in her bindings. I decided then that I would never lose her. She was mine. I would do everything to ensure that she stayed with me. I owned her. You can't own Ivy! No one can own Ivy, you idiot! I thought resentfully. Ivy would never be as weak as Bella—Edward growled in the background—Ivy always went with her own beat, never containable no matter how many times people tried to catch her. My cage would be strong, though, impenetrable. She would never escape—

My thoughts were interrupted by Ivy clacking into the kitchen in silver, metallic stilettos. I gaped at her. She was wearing a short silver dress, matching her shoes, with her hair down in a messy but properly placed style. Blood red lips that would be getting smudged and smoky eyes. I could barely keep my hands off of her and most men would have a hard time doing the same which was all the more reason I should keep them on.

She spun around once, modeling for me, while laughing. "Like it?" she asked. "Alice had it all picked out before I even got up there." She laughed again, dancing into my arms.

"I love it," I murmured, still in some kind a trance. "Let's go, we'll take my car." I wrapped my arm around her waist, leading her outside and past my family and Rose's viscous glare. I couldn't quiet care enough about the rest of the world. We slip into my jeep, Ivy leaning against one of my shoulders.

"Where are we going?" she asked after a moment of silence.

"I told you; a club."

"Which one?"

"Uh," I thought, "Diamond69." That was the name, right? I couldn't think straight with a goddess sitting next to me, it was painstaking. "So," I started once more, "what were you doing while I wasn't…around?"

She stiffened, a scowled twisting across her face. "I told you I didn't want to talk to you about it."

"I'll tell you what I was doing," I urged, maybe she thought it would be an equal trade or something.

"I don't care what the Hell you were doing," she sneered making me flinch. She didn't care. She didn't care. She didn't care. I couldn't even ignore how much that hurt me. I looked at my window, I never got rejected by Rose, and I had to remember I was dealing with Ivy. I bit down on my tongue hard. I heard Ivy sigh.

"I didn't mean it like that, Em," she whispered, "I was just really stressed and I still—" I silenced her, my lips pressing against hers. I had parked the car, seeing how we were in front of the club. My hands were caressing her face as I pulled her away.

"Whenever you want to talk about it, I'm right here," I encouraged her, opening the door and stepping out.

"Right, you're always there for me," she muttered, mockingly, to low for human ears to hear, meaning she didn't want me to hear.

She stepped out of my car and I wrapped my arms around her waist, being her shield. The club was blasting music off and shooting lights every which way and we weren't even inside yet. Ivy pulled me to the front of the line, weaving her way through stunned men. When she got to the bouncer he asked for our I.D. He took ours with no problem, especially after getting a glance of Ivy's bare legs. I shot him a cold glare and he stumbled backwards as Ivy dragged me inside. It was all black except for the blue glow; I had to keep my hands on Ivy so I didn't lose her in the crowd. It seemed that Ivy had a certain glow around her in here. The way she danced; the way her body moved against mine. After seemed like forever of teasing me with her dancing, she finally went off to get a drink. I watched as she conversed with the bar tender, downing a Sombrero and a Margarita. She laughed, drunkenly, at a lame joke he had cracked. She threw money on the table and swayed her way towards me.

Suddenly she was stopped, halting as a pair of arms wrapped around her hips. She shrieked a laugh as she turned in the guy's arms, starting to dance sensually with him. Her and his hands seemed to be all over each other. I could hardly contain a growl. She's just drunk, I snarled in my head. I started to make my way over then I heard her screaming, a scream of fear, not of pleasure. "Get off me jerk!" she wailed. I watched as the man locked her wrist, keeping her close to his body as he made his way out of the club.

"You're coming home with me baby girl," he chuckled, stroking her cheek.

"Let me go you A-Hole (A/N: Sorry 'bout the language, it's just appropriate for the situation.)!" she shrieked, scratching. In a flash he slapped her across the face, throwing her against the wall. I made my way quicker over there, boiling with anger. I would think of the most painful, slow ways he would die. I would show him how I hunted. His game was far from playing now. I watched as something flashed in Ivy's eyes. I was surprised she hadn't called for me. When she was scared or threatened she always needed me, depended on me.

"You really shouldn't have done," she growled darkly, snaring like a wolf, stalking its prey. Suddenly the roles switched; Ivy was no longer the hunted but the hunter. I stumbled back at the way she looked, the sound in her voice; she looked more powerful than a vampire after feeding. Suddenly she leapt, her prey cornered. In a flash, the guy was on the ground, whimpering in pain and fear. Ivy bent down and picked him up by his throat.

"Ivy!" I called her name sharply like she was a puppy that had done something wrong. She dropped him immediately, a deer caught in the headlights. Something clicked in her head and she dropped the man and ran over to me, sobbing and shaking in my arms.

"Oh Em," she sobbed, "I was so scared, I thought he was going to kill me." In a flash she was behind me; I was acting like a shield, blocking the scum from even looking at her. I felt her mold in my body, acting like she was helpless. Acting.

"Get in the car, lock the doors, and get some rest," I murmured at her shivering body, still glaring at the man informing him not to step out of line. I felt her nod, moving around us and scampering away. I returned my attention to the man whimpering in the corner like the coward he was.

"Look man, we were just having fun; I wasn't going to hurt her or any—"

"Shut up! I know exactly what you were going to and for her it would not have been fun," I roared, making him shrink smaller into the shadows.

"Dude, I don't want any trouble," he whispered while raising his hands in the air like he surrendered. "I won't touch your girl, off limits I understand."

I sighed in fake sympathy, having no sympathy for this monster. "I'm afraid you don't understand, so I guess we just have to deal with that now, don't we?" He ran with him far enough so no one would hear his screams and pleads for mercy.

--

It was a good hour when I had got back and Ivy was sleeping safely in my locked jeep. Her body automatically reacted when I sat next to her, turning on the car. She leaned against me, her body readjusting to mine. I stroked her bruised face the whole way home.

The roar of my engine was loud enough for humans to hear from miles away. Once again when I made it home everyone was in the living room once again, only this time Rose was not present, she had probably gone hunting to clear her head. I laid Ivy back on her makeshift bed, mentally telling myself I needed to get a bed for her.

I made my way down stairs, furious. "Alice!" I roared making Jasper instantly protective as he pulled her into his lap. "Weren't you supposed to see things like this?! Isn't that what makes your stupid gift so helpful!"

Alice suddenly smiled up at me. "I did see it and that's why I didn't tell you."

My jaw dropped and I lunged for Alice but Jasper blocked me in a flash, throwing me hard against the wall. I froze, making sure I hadn't woken Ivy. I heard her come out of deep sleep but she was still incoherent as she groped for the blanket and snuggled, drifting into blissful dreams. "Watch yourself," Jasper snarled.

"Sorry Alice," I muttered. "Just tell my why the Hell you would do something like that! She could have gotten hurt! That man could have token her right from under my noise! Or he could have killed her right there if she hadn't cooperated! What would have happened if he had had a gun?!" My chest was heaving up and down; I was being blinded by my on rage. I collapsed onto the ground, trying to calm myself.

"Well none of that happened, now didn't it?" I could hear the irritation in her tone. "I did you a favor! You got to be her hero! You saved her! You protected her! You are now there for her, she sees that! In her mind all its going is you, you, you! Don't you get it! I brought you guys closer!" I thought of how it made sense in a sick, demented way.

I placed my hands in my head, my voice coming out in a hoarse whisper, "He hurt her. He hit her. She was in pain."

"I know," Alice murmured. "I'm sorry, but now you aid her back to mental and physical health. It will all work out one of these days. She'll be back to normal in no time flat with you constantly by her side. I mean nothing serious happened, you dealt with him."

"Not that I approve of how you 'dealt' with him," Carlisle interjected but we all ignored him.

"I'm going to check on her," I finally muttered; it seemed like I was angry with the world for holding so many threats against Ivy. She was twisted in the sheets, her face towards me and highlighted by the crack in the door, making her purplish bruises stand out. I cradled her face in my hands, kissing her forehead. I climbed besides her and pulled her against my chest and burying her head in my shoulder as I protected her from the outside world. She murmured as she sunk into my body.

It was a few hours when she woke, fluttering her eyes open to look up at my face. She could immediately tell something was wrong as she examined me. Her body stiffened against mine but then she snuggled, trying to touch my heart strings. "Am I in trouble?" she asked in a soft, defenseless whisper. My face softened but it still didn't assure her.

"Extremely," I smiled a stiff, miniature smile. She looked down, biting her lip.

"Come hear baby," I said, lifting her body so she looked right at me. "Are you okay?" I asked while investigative her face.

She tried to squirm away from me but I kept her still. "I'm fine," she reassured. "Just a little banged up, that's all." I clenched my teeth. Just a little banged up, that's all. "Are you okay?" her voice was weak and trembling.

"Fine," I snarled, making her tense. I sighed as she lifted a hand up to trace my face, attempting to calm me down. After a while my breathing grew normal.

"What happened? What did you do with him?" she asked making my self-hating level high. Ivy didn't deserve a monster, a killer but that's what I was. I had killed the man and left him in the woods. He had begged for mercy but I ignored him, tearing pieces off him bit by bit till he was nothing but wolf food. But I couldn't tell Ivy that; I would never tell Ivy that.

"I just took care of him, that's all. The police have him now and everything will be okay," I lied but she seemed happy with it. "But! We are never going clubbing again!" I smiled at her sour expression.

"Party pooper," she muttered, cuddling back up into a ball, resting on my chest.
