Twilight Laurent AU

(A/N: I own nothing and read last chapter)
It took two hours for Bella to calm down and stop trying to freeze Kate alive for referring to the baby as an 'it'. She only stopped because an amused Irina noticed that the pregnant teens stomach was rumbling and insisted she get something to eat before trying to kill Kate, and Kate ended up making Bella a large batch of fried pickles and grilled bell peppers.
"Pregnancy cravings, both a pain in the ass and the best way to get back in the good graces of a pregnant woman." Eleazer said chuckling amused as Bella cuddled close to Kate, happily chewing on some of the bell peppers.
"Just wait until some of the real cravings kick in, if the smell doesn't disgust you then the food itself will. I'll be willing to bet that some of her cravings would put even Leah and Seth off of food." Tanya said with a chuckle, speaking from personal experience as she eyed Bella…well to be precise she eyed Bella's stomach. Having gone through two pregnancies herself while human, and then having seen thousands of other women who were pregnant as a vampire, she thought it strange how swollen Bella's stomach was already. By their estimates Bella would only be in her third or fourth month given the baby's slow growth…and yet her stomach was swollen to what seemed like a six month pregnant size.
"Especially if she takes after me in that regard. Some of my cravings back when I was human…" Irina trailed off with a snicker, eyeing her pregnant grandchild as well.
"I don't care what she eats. The cravings are just a sign that the baby is healthy and growing." Kate said smiling as she held Bella close and making Bella smile and kiss her cheek, anger completely forgotten.
"Now let me do some proper introductions. Rosalie, these are the three and a half newest members of the Denali family. The oldest is Leah, she's a Cat Shifter and Tanya's mate. The youngest is her little brother Seth, another Cat Shifter. The middle child is their pseudo sister Isabella, or Bella as she prefers, an Ice Spirit who you already know slightly, and Kate's mate. The half…well do I have to explain that?" Irina asked amused as she pointed to each of her descendants in turn.
"All three of them are my descendants through the children I had as a human, Bella through her mother and Leah and Seth through their mother." Irina finished making Rosalie's eyebrows shoot up slightly while her eyes narrowed.
"Good thing it wasn't through Bells dad considering he's dating our mom and all. That'd be just plain gross." Leah said pulling a face although she eyed the Cullen Blond warily.
"It's already gross since our parents are dating!" Seth said sticking his tongue out and making Bella giggle.
"You do know that Alice is probably in Forks trying to find you right now right?" Rosalie asked speaking directly to Bella and making everyone but the pregnant girl herself stiffen slightly.
"Why should I care? She abandoned me, just like the others did. To be honest out of all the Cullens, you and Jasper are the ones I'm not really mad at just annoyed with." Bella said shrugging although she scowled a bit at the mention of Alice.
"Really?" Rosalie asked blinking, apparently Bella's words threw her for a loop despite it not really being shown on her face.
"Well yeah. Emment and Alice called me their sister then just up and abandoned me without even bothering to tell me they were leaving or goodbye…Dr. and Mrs. Cullen claimed that I was another daughter to them but again, they abandoned me without even so much as a goodbye. So naturally I'm angry with them, Dickward….do I have to explain why I'm mad at him?" Bella asked tilting her head slightly as she looked at the others, causing them to shake their heads although most of them were frowning or scowling.
"You and Jasper however didn't try to claim I was anything to either of you. You even openly disliked me being around your family, and I can respect you for not faking that you care about me like the others did. I'm only annoyed with you for not even giving it a chance on getting to know me before automatically hating me, well that and for immediately taking Dickward's side without even asking me for my side of the story. You're not stupid, heck you can't be stupid with how you work on cars all the time, clearly you're a mechanic genius or just learned a lot about it over the course of your years, so I'm annoyed that you'd do something as dumb as immediately assume that Eddiekins is right without getting the full story." Bella said causing Rosalie to wince behind her mask of expressionlessness. Yeah that wasn't her greatest moment, but come on her brother who's she's known for 70+ years versus a not even 20 year old human? Who could blame her for believing her brother?
"Jasper I'm only annoyed at because he didn't bother to try and talk to me after the accident at the birthday party. I know it wasn't his fault and I don't blame him for it, or blame him for leaving to try and regain control or something like that, but I am annoyed that he didn't even bother to contact me himself to see if I was upset with him for the incident. If he did he would have learned that I wasn't upset at all, not with him at least, and you all wouldn't have had to move that soon." Bella said shrugging her shoulders as she popped another bell pepper in her mouth.
"You're a strange human." Rosalie said after a moment of staring silently at the brunette, making the others chuckle.
"Yeah well that might be because she's not really a human, or a full one at least." Laurent said chuckling as he ruffled Bella's hair, causing his hand to be frozen in a block of ice when she glared at him for it.
"You're getting better at that. Just two weeks ago you had trouble keeping it from icing over the room completely. Not to mention the snow storm from last week…and the tub incident." Irina said smiling proudly at Bella who blushed at this.
"The tub incident was Seth's fault! I'm a Snow Spirit! Me and hot water don't get along!" Bella said glaring at her brother who laughed as he hid behind his older sister who was laughing as well.
"And the snow storm was Laurent's fault! Seriously he was staring right at me, less than a foot away from my head, when I woke up! That would freak anyone out!" Bella said scowling at her 'big brother' who grinned sheepishly but shrugged it off.
"You were having a bad dream and Kate was out hunting so I was about to wake you up. You woke up before I could touch your shoulder though and then we had an indoor snow storm…" Laurent said trailing the sentence off slightly as his wife unfroze his hand just by touching it.
"You see Bella isn't really a human per say. As she said she's a Snow Spirit, like I was as a human and still am as a vampire albeit my powers are a bit stronger now but that's mostly due to my age and practice with them. Bella however is the strongest Snow Spirit I know of for not being another type of supernatural as well." Irina said smiling proudly at Bella who blushed again and ducked her head, eating a pickle as she did so. Rosalie merely stared, her mask still in place, as she said one sentence after a moment of silence.
"I've never heard of a Snow Spirit before."
