"Bella, Alice Edward here has some talent" Jasper said. I looked confused, what was he talking about.

"Edward can…..

Chapter 15

BPOV

"Edward can shield himself" Jasper told us. Was he being serious.

I searched his mind, he was thinking about what had just occurred. I gasped.

"Alice, no need to worry. Edward is the reason you couldn't see anything just a moment ago. It seems he can block physical and mental attacks. No wonder I have such a hard time reading his thoughts" I told her.

They all laughed at that not understanding how frustrating that was to me. "A shield, wow. That is very rare. And from what I know from what I hear from others their has never been one quite this strong" I told them. If blushing was possible I am certain Edward would have. He came to me then. "Stop embarrassing me, and kiss me love" he smiled that crooked smile and I melted. "you don't have to tell me twice" I said before crashing my lips to his.

Kissing Edward, there are not words to tell you how that feels to me. Nothing else exists at that moment but me and him. I heard someone clear their throat before the stench hit me. "I really hate those dogs" I muttered too low for them to hear but my family did. Edward glared at me, "Be nice" he whispered. Yeah like that would happen. Jana kept repeating the same thing in her head over and over again. "You don't have to shout you know" She glared at me " we both already know how you feel about the two of us" ha take that dog. Edwards eyes left me to glare at her, "Jana I told you, I love Bella and that is all that matters. If you cant handle it then leave" he told her again. She did not like that.

She doesn't fight fair, but what can you expect from a vampire. Then again he is one now too, Jana thought. I smiled, that's right darling is he one now. And he will be mine for eternity, never yours. She seemed to read my thoughts from my face. You don't need to be so smug, Jana thought. She was right I didn't have to, I just wanted to.

"why are you back?" I asked her.

"Sam thought I should stay back incase whoever it was doubles back this way" Jana told me.

Huh they don't think we can handle this ourselves? We will see about that.

Just then Alice was hit with a vision that trapped us both.

Vision:

Their capes where blowing in the wind as they stared out at the burning fire. "It was a Shame to have this end this way" Aro stated.

"I will end you all for this" Edward sneered.

"Carlisle my friend, you need to teach your boy some manners before I throw him in the fire as well" Marcus scolded.

"Edward please, stay calm."

"How can you say that to me? They killed her! They took my Bella from me! I will end them all for this" Edward yelled before jumping Aro and taking him into the Flames, killing himself and the fiend.

VISION END

No! I looked to Alice then. I thought about what I wanted to ask her I knew she would see it. I am not sure when this will happen or why Bella, but it feels soon. , she thought.

"What's going on with them two?" That bloody dog asked. Edward looked at me then, and I know he saw the fear in my eyes. "Don't ask me to tell you because I can't and I don't want to lie to you" I told him.

"You can tell me anything love" he told me.

"I know but this is nothing you need to concern yourself with at the moment, trust me" I begged him. He nodded, then kissed my forehead. you will have to tell him sooner or later, Alice thought. She was right, but for now I would pretend everything would be fine. I just had to.

When everyone got home it was like a freaking government meeting. No one was saying what they wanted to and no one was asking the questions they so wanted to. "OMG if you fucking people do not just come out with I will blow up! All your thoughts are giving me a headache, just saw what you really want to before I do it for u!" I yelled at them, instantly regretting it because most of what they wanted to know was what was going on with me and Alice.

"okay I am sorry I blew up like that. I just cant take it all anymore. This is too much for me," I looked to Alice "I need to hunt, Alice please come with me?" She nodded, "of course."

"Bella is something wrong love?" my darling Edward asked me. I put on a fake smile and said, "No darling, I am fine. I just need to hunt, we will be back shortly."

He kissed me briefly, I could feel the concern in his kiss. I loved this man, I always had. I could not lose him again, I could not stand to hurt him the way I was hurt all those years ago.

Alice took my hand and we ran and ran. We were at least a state away before we stopped. "Ali this cannot happen" I told her.

"I know, it is the last thing I want to see happen. I don't know how or why I just know this feels soon" she told me with a sadden voice.

"I have done nothing wrong, there is no reason for this to even be in the future" I yelled. Then it hit me. I knew why this would happen.

Years ago when I was new to this life, Dimitri brought me to the Volturi and they asked me to join them. I life in their faces and turned them down.

"Alice, I know why this is going to happen. Do u remember when u and Jasper first joined us and I went missing for those few months?"

"Yea, Carlisle was very worried" she answered.

"I was in Italy, I had never seen the Volturi. I had heard the stories from Carlisle of course. While there I meant Dimitri, he took me to them. They asked me to join them. I told them there was nothing in this world that would make me do such a thing. I loved my family and I would stay with them" I paused "But Ali there is something that would drive me to it. If they took Edward or threatened him I would go. No questions asked."

She just stared at me for a while, her mind a complete blank before answering. "Bells it won't come to that. None of us will let it. But the only way to stop this is to tell them" she told me.

Why did she always have to be right. I know telling them is the only way but I do not want Edward to know. He will only worry.

"Alright we tell them when we get back" I finally agreed "Lets hunt now."

And with that we hunted.

Once back at the house…..

It was like someone declared WAR. Everyone was screaming.

"What the hell is going on here?" I asked when we entered to house.

"We got a letter from Aro. It was addressed to you and Edward. It arrived after you left" Emmett explained.

This was not good. "Bella tell them" Alice said.

"Tell us what love?" Edward asked. Just breathe Bella you can do this.

"I know what Aro wants" I paused "He wants me."

There where gasps all around, so retold the story again. And this time it wasn't taking as well.

Carlisle was upset that his friend would try to steal his daughter.

Esme was hurt I didn't tell her.

Rose was just being Rose, she hated not knowing things.

Emmett was happy, he wanted a reason to fight the bastards.

Jasper was with Emmett.

And then there was Edward who was the only one not saying a word about any of it. Not what happened back then or the vision Alice saw. Nothing.

"Edward, please say something?" I begged.

He just stared at me, with fear and worry in his eyes. "nothing is going to happen to me" I told him. He flinched away.

"Don't say that. You don't know that for sure. Mark my words, if they so much as remove a strand of your hair I will destroy them all" He declared.

"You shouldn't speak such things. You don't know them baby. Aro is used to getting what he wants" I warned him "If he wants me, he will stop at nothing to get me. He wouldn't kill me." I lied to him. I swore I wouldn't do that, but there was no denying he needed to be lied to. You know he will figure out you lied sooner or later, Alice thought. She lied to him, why would she do that, Carlisle thought. The others were thinking the same thing.

"You really believe that?" he asked me. I gave him a fake smile, "Yes I do."

That was the first of many lies I would tell him as the days dragged on.

More letters arrived, one with a gift. A beautiful necklace I was to wear when I saw him in Italy.

Today was a good day, I didn't have to lie to him. He was gone. Emmett and Jasper took him hunting.

"Bella can I speak to you?" Carlisle asked. I nodded and followed him to his study. "You have been lying to Edward. May I ask why?"

"Dad, I must. He could not handle the truth. You saw him after he heard of the Vision Alice had. It was heartbroken. If he knew the lengths Aro would go to get what he wants, it would destroy him" I said quickly.

"so you know, you may very well die at Aro's command?"

"Yes, I do. I have known for a long time he was waiting for something to use against me. It took that vision to make me see now he has something"

"Edward" he said.

"Yes, he will use him to get to me. Maybe I should just give him what he wants" I spoke sadly. Carlisle rushed me and took me in his arms.

"You are my daughter, I will not allow you do that. He will have to kill me before I give him one of my children."

"It may come to that and that is my fear" I said with tears in my eyes. That day I cried on his shoulder, wishing for a better future.
