Demetri POV

Damn I love this woman, she has the kindest heart I have ever seen in my existence.

I don't know what I'd have done if I had never of met her, I would have probably just stuck to my old routine of having my guard duty rule my life, with breaks every so often on games or on the garden with Alec and Jane and go out to feed later on.

Bella has made my life so much happier since she joined us. The first day I met her I found a new purpose in life - to keep her happy and to love her as much as I can.

I'm watching her now drinking from a thief in an alley. I've already had three tonight and she's just finishing her second. I plan on taking her back to castle and giving her her gift I bought earlier today. It's something I know she'll like and belongs to her now.

She lets go of the man and turns to see me watching her with a proud smile on my face, she looks so beautiful in an exotic way after she's drunken her needed blood.

I hurry over to her and place my hands on either side of her face, gazing into her ruby red eyes, then I kiss her lips with all the love I can muster, she returns the kiss and sinks her fingers into my hair, keeping me in place as I am with her.

"I love you Bella" I whisper whilst still kissing her,

"I love you too Demetri" she whispers, the kiss now becoming more passionate and loving I just love her so much its impossible to keep that under control.

Suddenly I see the light of the sun streaming in front of the alleyway we're in.

"Bella, we need to go" I say, bringing her close to me, from this she looks back to see the suns rays beginning to come. She nods at this and we both then begin to sprint our way back to the castle.

"Demetri?"

I look over to her beside me to find her looking at me with a gentle smile,

"Yes love?" I say,

"Thank you for my date, it was wonderful" she says, from this I smile at her and nod in agreement.

Finally we arrive back in my room...well our room now, that thought brings a smile to my face,

"Bella, there's something I need to talk to you about" I say, sitting us both at the end of the bed, from this she looks up at me in response,

"Alec and Jane are great kids, misunderstood by the vampire nation but in truth brilliant. I've known them since they were turned. I've raised them as a father and as a father I want the best for them. Bella will you be their new mother?" I ask, looking at her in question, she looks at me in thought for a minute, then her smile graces its presence.

"Demetri, of course I will. They are great kids and I love them as my own already. If they'll have me then I'll be their new mother" she says, from this I smile and kiss her lips.

"Let me go and speak to them first and we'll be back in a second" I say, from this she smiles, but before I stand up she leap up at me and hugs me,

"Thank you Demetri, your giving me such a wonderful family. Your kindest, loving and wonderful man I have ever met" she says, her head against my chest and her arms around me. I have my arms around her from this and I kiss her head.

"I love you Bella, all I want is for you to be happy" I say, from this she looks up at me and I think that if she could she's be crying now.

"I am happy, more happy then I've ever been in my life. All thanks to you Demetri" she says smiling at me with a breathtaking smile.

"So what do you think Jane?" I ask, Alec, Jane and myself in the games room talking about the situation.

"Dad! Of course I want Bella as our mum, she's great, she's the mother we never had and I love her so much already!" says Jane, leaping into my lap and hugging me, it's a good thing I'm older and stronger then her because otherwise she's probably have crushed me.

"What about you Alec, still want Bella to be your new mum?" I ask, from this he grins and nods,

"Definitely. But...does she want us to be her new kids?" he asks, from this I smile and nod,

"I asked her before and she would be honored to be your mother. She loves you both" I say, but no sooner had I said this Jane is out of my arms and the room we're in.

"Hey wait for me!" yells Alec as he follows Jane to the most likely place she'll have gone to. Bella.

I run towards mine and Bella's room and find her on the floor with Jane and Alec on top of her, I laugh at this as the three of them are already laughing.

"Awesome! I get a mum!" yells Alec, from this I walk over to them and help Bella up.

"I never thought I'd get such great children" says Bella, with Jane now hugging her,

"Mama" she says, from this Alec comes over and hugs Bella too, she looks up at me and smiles,

"There's room for one more you know, dad" she says, from this I grin and sweep the three of them in a hug, them all laughing at this when their in the air.

This is my family, and soon I may even have Bella...as my wife. At least when I can bring up the courage to ask her.

"Bella?" I say, after a few minutes when Jane and Alec leave the room. She looks at me in response and I walk up to her feeling slightly nervous about what I'm about to do,

"I have something for you" I say, then I pull out of my pocket a thin square box and then show her the garnet necklace with a heart pendant on it.

"Demetri! Oh my god that's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life" she says looking up at me from the necklace in awe, I smile at her, glad that she likes it.

"Mt great-grandfather had it made by the best blacksmith in his time after giving him the stone, and he gave it to my great-grandmother as a present to show her his love for him. Its been handed down since them. And now I want you to have it Bella" I say, the look on her face would have guaranteed her crying if she were human,

I walk around her until I'm facing her back and then begin to clasp the necklace around her neck,

"Are you sure?" she asks silently, from this I kiss her exposed neck,

"Yes. I love you with all my heart, and that will never go away" I say, from this she turns around and wraps her arms round me,

"Thank you Demetri, I'll wear it always" she says, from this I smile and wrap my arms around the one woman I will ever love.
