Chapter 11: Surprise
Nessie
"Did you say Carlisle? As in Carlisle Cullen? "I asked, shocked.
"Yes he a very remarkable man. I'll never forget him,"
"That's my grandfather," I blurted out without thinking.
"Your grandfather? That's impossible. He'd be long dead by now,
"I shook my head in disagreement. "He is not dead. He's alive and well. Well sort of," I laughed. "My grandfather has been a vampire for over three hundred years. That's why you knew him back in the late eighteenth early nineteenth century,"
Dr. Brown sighed. "I suppose I should've known. He was no ordinary man. More beautiful on the inside than he was on the outside and that's really saying something,"
"I groaned. "Please I don't want to hear about how attractive women find my grandfather to be,"Dr. Brown laughed.
"I never really took Carlisle to be a family man. He was always so engrossed in his work to socialize much,"
"I think he always thought it was too risky to intermix a lot with humans. But maybe I'm wrong,"
"I heard a knock on the door and my heart skipped a beat.
"Oh my will you look at the time. I'm already fifteen minutes late for my next appointment. I'd love to keep talking but-"
"I know," I said as I stood up. "I understand,"
"Well it was nice to see you again Nessie. And it was nice to meet you Jacob,"
"Likewise," he said.
"Well that was odd," I said as soon as we were out of there.
"What was odd?" Jacob asked me.
"I mean I never knew that she knew my grandfather. I wonder if he remembers her,"
"You never mentioned him to her did you?"
I shook my head. "No. She knows about my past but I never went into much detail about my family,"
Jacob put his arm around me and I leaned into his warm embrace. His warmth was very soothing or maybe it was just Jacob that was very soothing. Whatever it was I couldn't help but smile."Come on I'm taking you home,"
I didn't say anything and instead just nodded."Are you feeling better?" Jacob asked me.
'Maybe a little now that you're here," I blurted out without thinking. I blushed.
"Oh I make you feel better?" he teased.
"Well yes. I always feel, I don't know, good when I'm with you. I love being with You Jacob. You make me feel things that I probably shouldn't be feeling,
"Jacob looked conflicted and I wondered if I had overstepped my boundaries. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that,"
"No," he shook his head in disagreement. "I'm glad you did. There's something I need to tell you though,"
My stomach dropped. A sinking feeling settled in my heart. This is the part where he was going to reject me in a kind but awkward way. Great. I had to open my mouth.
'Have you ever heard of imprinting?" he asked me.
"No,"
"Yeah I guess I kind of figured that," he said. "It's how us wolves find our soulmates. When we see our soulmate it's like gravity shifts and suddenly it's not the Earth holding you here anymore. She does. You would do anything for her. Be anything she needs you to be. It's the most unshakeable and unbreakable bond that there is,
"I scratched my head. "and have you met your soulmate?""I have and she's standing right in front of me,"
"Me!" I shouted a bit shocked."I imprinted on you the day that you were born,"
"Why haven't you told me before?"
"Because when you were just a baby your parents made me promise that I wouldn't tell you until your feelings for me were clear. They didn't want the knowledge of my imprinting influence your decision on who you love in any way whatsoever,"
"Oh, I see,"
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to dump all of that on you. I just thought that it was time that you knew the truth,"
"Well I'm glad that you told me Jacob. It explains why I feel so drawn to you. You're like my own personal son,"
He laughed.
"What's so funny?"
"I'm sorry. It's just your mother said the exact same thing to me many years ago,"
Oh. I hadn't been expecting him to say that.
"Oh and while we are on the topic of your mother there is something else that you need to know,"
"Okay," I said my voice full of took a deep breath. "There was a time where I was in love with your mother. She was in love with me to,"
"What? But I thought she always loved my dad,"
"She was It's a bit complicated,"
"I'm confused," I admitted.
"There was a brief period of time where your father left your mother. During that time your mom and I got really close and we fell in love with each other though she didn't realize it for a long time. Hell she used to deny it vehemently,"
"So you and my mom were in love? But she denied it for a long time?"
"Your mother has always been a very stubborn person to point where she wouldn't even admit that truth to herself. But she eventually realized it. But she always loved your dad more. But we did kiss,"
"You kissed my mom,"
"Yes,"I wasn't sure how I felt about that."and why are you telling me this?"
"Look I understand that this is a lot to take in but I don't want there to be any secrets between us. You deserve to know everything,"I didn't say anything. I didn't know how to feel. The man I was falling in love with had kissed my mother. It was weird. I would have never guessed my mom ever had feelings stronger than friendship for Jacob. My wolf.
I was really tired by the time that I got back home and all I wanted to do was sleep. I didn't wake up until some time later. I almost screamed when I realized someone was there right next to me. But then I quickly realized it was my dad.
"Dad?" I was surprised that he was there. We hadn't spoken since he told me about Adam."I heard you weren't feeling well and I came to check up on you. Also I wanted to talk to you,
"My heart sank a little."Nessie I really wish that you would listen to me and everyone else for that matter. I know that you want to believe that your friends are good people. But-"
"But they're my friends,"
"I know that. But Renesmee I have read their minds. I know what they have done to you and other girls as well. I know for a fact they want to rape you again. They fantasize about it. You have no idea how much that sickens me to my very core,"I started crying.
"It's okay Nessie. It's going to be okay," he hugged me. "I understand what you're going through-"
"How do you understand when you've never been raped before?"
He sighed. "You're right. I haven't but I know someone who has. Someone who loves you and knows how to help you,"
"Who?"
"Rosalie,"
I was shocked. "She was raped?"
"Yes but that is her story to tell,"
"I just never imagined that Adam Royce King would do something like that to me. I've known him for ten years,"
"Wait. What did you say?"
"That I've known him for-"
"No. His name is Adam Royce King?"
I nodded.
"No that's impossible. That name died out a long time ago,"
I shook my head. Why did people keep saying that. "No Austen's family lineage almost died out in 1933 when Austen's great grandfather, Royce King II, was found mysteriously murdered in a hotel room. But he had just gotten his new wife pregnant right before he was killed. His wife gave birth to a son and that is how the lineage continued,"
Dad sighed. "I don't even want to imagine how Rosalie is going to react to this news when I tell her,"
"Mom said something similar earlier and I don't understand why,"
"Oh you'll understand soon enough. I'll tell her tonight,"
Suddenly we both heard a ding. Dad took one look at his phone. "It's Alice. Oh yeah tonight is going to be very very very ugly,"
