Edward's Pov
"Anthony!"
It has been five years since Bella left with my son…and we still haven't found her yet. I had taken over the family business when I hit 21 and full accepted it when Bella betrayed me.
Anthony came running to me as soon as I called him. "Daddy" I crouched down and took him into my arms, "Hey buddy. What did you do with Grandma today?" I asked. I sat him down on the white couch and his green eyes that matched my own open wide with excitement.
"We made cookies and I got to lick the spoon" I laughed, "Did grandma see you?" I whispered to him. He laughed over his hands over his mouth and shook his head, I laughed at him and kissed his head "good boy"
"Go say bye to grandma and grandpa" I told him and he took off running.
The minute we got home I told Anthony to go to wash his hands before I get dinner ready. I headed to my room and took out my gun and placed it on top of the night stand. I went into my bathroom and went to wash my hands.
"Daddy" I heard Anthony call from my bedroom, I dried my hands and walked in, "Anthony no!" I screamed and Anthony dropped my gun.
I quickly ran to him and covered him with my body as the bullet flew towards the fall. I held Anthony close to me; picked him up and carried him to the living room. I sat him on the sofa and squatted down to his level; he quickly put his arms around my neck and hugged me. I kissed his forehead and separated him from me so we could see each other.
"Never touch the gun again Anthony. Do you understand?" I used a tone I've never used on him…strict. He nodded still looking terrified. I hugged him once more and kissed the top of his head.
"Let's go eat dinner yeah" I suggested; he nodded and I carried him to the dinner table. I fixed him his dinner and we ate in silence…"daddy"
I looked up and saw Anthony's still worried face, "I'm not mad anymore Anthony" I reassured him he nodded but then said, "Why don't I have a mommy?"
I felt my once protected wall heart shatter to the ground, I swallowed and told him a white lie, "because mommy didn't want you" his face broke but I had to protect him.
After that day he never asked about his mother ever again…and the guilt ate me alive.

Bella's Pov
I knew Edward was looking for me…for us. EJ looks so much like him: both have the green eyes and bronze hair; I imagine that is what Anthony would also look like. In the last 5 years EJ has grown to ask about his father. Why the other kids in our family, his cousins have a father and he didn't…I told him I would tell him when he was older.
My father had already decided that EJ would be the next leader when he finished college, I told him it was a stupid since the Cullens might put Anthony in the lead as well and they might find out about each other. He ignored me and said "Family comes first" so I responded by saying "Will you kill him, Anthony, your own grandson if it comes down to it?" he slapped me in the face.
"Mommy!" EJ came running in and stood in front of me with an angered face, I looked at my father and he was smiling. "He will be ready."
I shivered and carried EJ to our room of the house; I set him down on the bed and lay down next to him. He touched my face with the bruise already forming.
"I won't let anyone hurt you mommy" he promised and hugged me. I held in the tears, "and I won't let anyone hurt you' I promised right back.
After that EJ never asked about his father again…and it broke my heart.
"Don't be fooled by my looks. Mess with my kids and I'll go 'fifty shades of crazy' on you"
