Dreaming of Edward
Chapter 13
Edward's POV- Recap
"Bella, you did very well on focusing, was it easier?"
"God yes, and now I feel so calm and relaxed. Thank you for that," I grinned when she laid her head on my shoulder and thought 'anytime my love.'
"Bella, you don't have to thank me, I wanted you as much as you wanted me," I purred.
"Now, it's time to get you fed so we can go back to our son. And, since he sleeps at night and we don't, we have the best of both worlds."
Bella's POV
"Focus Bella, close your eyes and breathe deeply through your mouth," I did as he asked; I instantly caught the scent of something.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Brown bear, its instinct love, just let go and go get it…," I was off before he finished.
It was only a mile away now and I wanted it bad, so my legs moved even quicker. The faster I fed, the faster I would get home to see my son. The scent was only half the draw, hearing the precious liquid pumping through its veins was also pulling me in. I was aware of Edward's presence in the back of my mind, but I knew he would not interfere. Pushing harder and faster, I was on the bear before he had a chance to eat the fish he had just caught. He tried to fight me off, but the swipes from his large clawed paws never impacted on me. A snarl erupted from my chest as I lunged at him incredibly desperate for what I wanted that I pulled him to the ground. He never had a chance to growl before I snapped his neck.
With Edward's instruction, my first hunt was a success. Of course, in my rush to get back to my son I failed to be neat. Hearing him chuckle at me started the frustration to grow again within me. NOT everyone could be as perfect of him! It was strange, like a flip of a switch, I could not control my need for Edward, and like the bear I needed him NOW! I knew he saw the change in me.
"Bella, what's wrong?" He cocked his head in question.
"I can't stop it!" I screamed as I pinned him up against the tree behind him.
He did not fight when I started grabbing at his pants. He let me rip them open exposing his cock to me. I licked my lips in anticipation as I dropped to my knees in front of him. I was battling for control, but my body would not listen to me. It was like the nights we spent together when I thought I was dreaming, the drive ruled my body. I was snarling, fearing he would withhold what I needed.
"Bella, you can have anything you need, I will deny you nothing. What do you need?" He asked softly as he rubbed my cheek with his fingertips.
"YOU!" I snarled and his cock immediately started twitching.
"Then take me in your mouth and suck me off if it will make you happy," he closed his eyes and surrendered to me.
I greedily wrapped my mouth around him purring in satisfaction of getting what I wanted, no…needed. With one pull of my lips, he moaned and pushed further into my mouth. Slowly, he moved his hands into my hair and began pumping in and out of my mouth.
"Oh…God love, your mouth…feels so good…so good," he panted out.
The taste of him was better than even the taste of the bear I drained. As he moved in and out I licked, sucked and nibbled on his cock.
"Shit…Bella, I'm cumming baby…," his scream was music to my ears.
Quickly, he reached the edge of his climax with one last thrust he exploded into my mouth and down my throat. I hummed in delight at his taste, it was even better then I remembered. Gently, he lifted me off the ground and held me until I begged for more from him.
"Edward, please…I need…," I moaned.
I know he cannot read my mind, but he always seems to know what my body needs from him. Before I could blink, he had me on my back with my skirt hiked up. He quickly followed up by tearing off my silk panties and burying his face between my thighs.
"Ah…yes…more, now!" I loudly grunted as he slipped two fingers in as deep as they would go alternating sucking and swirling his tongue over my clit.
Every one of his licks sent me closer to my much needed climax. Between his sucking on my clit and his pumping fingers, I was ready to go insane all too quickly. "Oh, faster…harder…Ahhhh….Edward!"
I screamed out as he shoved me over the edge causing me to clamp down around his fingers. He was so cute when he hummed as he lapped up everything I gave him.
Alice POV
"Carlisle, I think we might have a problem with Bella," I gasped as my latest vision finished wrapping up.
"What did you see darlin?" Jasper's frown showed how worried he was about his new sister.
"It would appear her episodes have carried over into her vampire life," Carlisle just gawked at me.
"Are you saying she can't control her sexual urges?"
"No Jasper, she can't. She just attacked Edward, but luckily…he didn't try to fight her. She is coming out of it as we speak."
"Okay…so, we are going to have to adjust things a bit until we can figure out what causes them, they can't be apart. If she attacks someone else, Edward would be devastated and out of his mind with jealousy and rage." Carlisle surmised and, of course, doctor mode immediately kicked in about researching the problem.
"We're also going to have to make sure we are ready to give them the privacy they are going to need. If Emmett harasses Bella about it, I see her leaving; Edward will follow her taking Masen with them. If we are not understanding about this, we will lose them all," I pleaded with my eyes for them so they would understand. I didn't want to lose my sister.
"Don't worry; we'll make sure not to let that happen. I won't lose my grandson because his mother has a condition she can't control. It's not her fault," Carlisle said with such conviction I knew he was right.
"Alice, you're going to have to watch her future very closely. Jasper you'll watch her emotions, and the minute the lust takes over, we'll do everything possible to make it easier on her. Esme, you will need to have a blanket, back up clothes for all of them and another bag with supplies for the baby in case we need to leave fast."
Edward and Bella came in shortly after we had a plan of action ready for her condition. They looked like the bear mauled them and not the other way around. Esme was upstairs hiding with the baby in case Bella lost control. I could see by her mannerisms that the change had not improved her confidence one bit. I had already seen it would not be a problem, but you know how new grandparents are.
"Please…can I see my son now?" Bella begged.
"Edward, how did she do?"
"Excellent, but we are going to have to discuss her condition," he said as he held his pants closed and I think if he could have blushed he would have been red as a tomato.
"I…well…," Carlisle waved at Bella dismissively.
"We know all about it and we will ensure whenever it triggers, you will be covered, but Bella you need to know…it's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's like Alice reading the future it's just there, you can't control it," he pulled her into a hug.
"Thank you all, for everything you have done for me," if she could have blushed too, I have no doubt she would have, what a pair they make.
"Bella you're family. You have been since the moment Edward fell in love with you and that will never change. We will always be here for you no matter what, please never forget that," I took this chance to give her, her first sisterly hug.
"Esme, could you bring Masen downstairs to meet his mom, they have been waiting for this," Edward called out.
Edward's POV
When Bella attacked me on the way back, I could see she had no control over her sudden 'mood change' I was just glad it was me she attacked and not some other male. As I thought about it more, I felt the jealousy rising within me even with her mouth wrapped around my cock. I worried what if it was someone else she pulled into her mouth. Those thoughts fueled my desire to possessively claim her as mine. If I had to lock us up in our room to ensure I was the only one who touched her, I would. She is MINE and I do not share! EVER!
Hearing Alice's thoughts I agreed with the plan. I had no problem with never leaving her side. She could take me anytime, anyplace she wanted me, whether it was convenient or not. Yeah like I really minded, I was grinning like the cheshire cat on the inside.
"Bella, this is your son Masen, he's been waiting for you," Esme handed him over tentatively.
"Hello little man, I've been waiting for you too," she cooed lovingly into his ear.
The feeling of us being a family was really brought home by seeing them smiling at each other. There is nothing I would not do for either of them. Even Jasper could see she would never hurt him. I sat down adjusting my torn pants properly and pulled them both onto my lap. I just felt the need to have them as close as possible.
"So…tell me what I have missed?" Bella asked as she examined him closer.
"Well…he's growing rapidly, I am sure you can see that, he drinks both blood and formula, but he only does because Grammy makes him do it. Of course, he prefers human bagged blood, but settles for our diet without any qualms," when she nodded I continued.
"He is also ticklish right here," I tickled his tummy and got a giggle in return.
"Seriously, that's where I'm ticklish too," what, how did I not know that, I'll have to explore that later.
"Edward, you need to prepare to leave if we are going to meet the pack in time," Carlisle thought as I nodded so he would know I had heard him.
"Bella, I am afraid you are going to have to get to know him on the way back to Forks. We have to meet with the wolves' tomorrow night," I guess I should have expected a growl from her.
"WHY do we have to meet them?"
"Jacob broke the treaty we have with them, so…we need to settle it before we leave," I squeezed her slightly to calm her.
"So, we're going to kill him?" She looked almost hopeful.
"No…we're going to get an exemption for your transformation and a guarantee for Masen's safety," I pleaded with my eyes hoping she would see the logic in my theory.
"Where will we be going?"
"We haven't decided that yet, but once we're all together, we will figure that out."
"Will I be able to see my father before we leave?"
"No…he can't know about us, it would put him in too much danger if anyone found out he knew," she just nodded and coddled our son.
Within the hour, we were on the road in the Volvo with Alice and Jasper heading back to Forks. Eleazar and Carmen were riding in the Mercedes with Carlisle and Esme. The whole trip back took only eight hours thanks to my driving 140 mph. Rosalie and others were in the yard when we pulled up. Their thoughts were a little overwhelming ranging from relief to wanting revenge. I even heard Jasper groan slightly from all the emotions swirling around him.
We all headed into the living room and played a game of pass the baby; everyone wanted a chance to hold him. It was agreed then that we would all go including the Denali's to the meeting with the mutts. Bella and the baby would stay behind us until Carlisle could work everything out. When we arrived, I stood behind Carlisle, in front of Bella. Immediately to my right was Rosalie, and on my left was Alice. The Denali's were wrapped around both our sides. Carlisle and Esme were in the center of the front line with Jasper and Emmett on their flanks.
I heard the ten of them coming. This was not going to go well from their thoughts and we already had a problem before they even arrived. We saw six wolves; three elders and Charlie exit the woods in front of us. Why had they brought him? Wasn't it bad enough that Jacob broke the treaty and now they were exposing us to a human, Bella's father at that!
"Carlisle, was it necessary to bring an army with you?" Billy Black spat.
"Not an army, but I did bring my entire family, who was present at the attack," as always Carlisle kept his voice calm.
"Well…let's get to it. What do you want to end this peacefully?" Asked Harry Clearwater.
"First…please explain what Chief Swan is doing here and what have you told him?"
"Since the treaty was already broken we told him everything. He had the right to know his daughter and grandchild had died by accident," Billy sneered as Charlie looked like he would fall apart.
"Have you brought their bodies back for burial?" Asked Harry.
"No a burial will not be possible," Carlisle was trying not to blurt it out.
"What do you mean?" Charlie grumbled.
Before I could stop her, Bella flashed forward and stood between Carlisle and Esme. They were definitely not anticipating that one, "because we are not quite dead yet…dad."
"Bella? But…he said...you're different now, are you?"
"Yes, it was necessary due to Jacob's attack," she tried to beg with her eyes.
"And that would be my grandchild in your arms?"
"Yes…his name is Masen," you could see she was brimming with pride, but Charlie was apprehensive about his size.
"And might I ask who the father is?" I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around Bella's waist. "That would be me," I explained.
"YOU RUINED MY CHILD!" He sneered.
"No dad…he saved me, you don't understand. I have a condition called Sexsomnia. If he had not given me what I needed, I would have ended up raping someone. He is not to be blamed…I am," Charlie's mind was swirling around what she had just told him.
"So…he let you take him so you wouldn't hurt some else?"
"Yes, and it was my idea to run. He didn't even know I was pregnant when I left."
"He seems awfully big for a child of less than a week old…," Charlie was grasping for straws.
"Well…that probably has something to do with the fact that he is unique…"
"How so?"
"Dad, Edward's family is different and now…so am I," before she could finish he cut her off.
"Different how?" He demanded.
"We're the cold ones from the legends Billy has told you about," Carlisle announced.
"But, they were…," in his head he had already figured it out, even if he was not ready to say it out loud.
"Yes…Charlie, we're vampires and Masen is a hybrid, he is ½ human and ½ vampire," for the first time in my existence I was proud of what I was and what I achieved with Bella when I told him this.
"So…what you eat people?" All my family chuckled.
"Um…no, we don't eat anything, but we do drink blood. However, we are the vegetarians of our species. We only drink from animals," he looked at me bewildered.
"And the baby?"
"He drinks both formula and blood. He's safe Charlie, he won't hurt you. Would you like to hold him?" Bella offered hoping to get them to bond.
"Yeah, okay…if he wouldn't mind that is," Charlie glared at me, but was trying to hold back a smile as he walked up to the line and took one-step over.
He was a little shaky when Bella placed my son in his arms. Nevertheless, the second after Masen batted his eyelashes at him, he was won over. He was as proud of his grandson as any grandfather was, because in his mind it did not matter if he was a hybrid, he is family. I was a little nervous when the rest of the group wanted to see my child, but amazingly their thoughts went from suspicious to awe, they were also won over by Masen. All the wolves except for Jacob had even phased back into human form to get a closer look.
Jacob's thoughts were the most changed by my son. He went from extremely guilty to relief and finally settled on protective. He felt he owed the child he almost killed a debt of protection. It was mind boggling to see his mind as it formed tiny string fibers of lights towards us and attaching to us, mostly to Masen. I could feel them as they attached and so could Bella and Masen. In Masen's mind, he saw Jacob as his protector, his guardian angel and forever friend. When Jacob whined slightly, it was Sam who figured out his problem.
"Ah Jake, are you serious?" Jake nodded his head.
"What was that and what are you talking about?" I demanded.
"There are two types of imprints or bonds we form. They are involuntary we cannot control them. When we find our true love and when we bond with the tribe. What I am assuming you just felt was the tribal imprint. We never saw him bond to our tribe, but we assumed he had; now it would appear he has tribal imprinted on your family. Basically, in his mind you're his family to protect."
"And…if we don't need him to protect us? Then what?"
"Then nothing, like I said it's involuntary, he can't change it now."
"But…he's still a member of our pack right?"
"Yeah…Jared, but I think the minute we phase they will become our problem too. I think we are going to have to get used to seeing them regularly."
"Oh…that's just peachy, we're lapdogs to the leeches?" Jacob snarled openly at Paul.
"Relax Paul, we're no one's lapdogs, but we will be bound to protect them."
"Jacob says he's sorry, but it is what it is," I translated for him.
"You can hear him?"
"Um…yeah, it's my thing; I can hear all of your thoughts except for Bella's."
"Wow! That must be so cool!" Embry said excitedly.
"No…not really, it's a little annoying sometimes."
"Oh…right, so can you read us one at a time or all at once?"
"It's all at once and if you had any idea how many people there are in my one mile radius, you wouldn't want it in your head."
"Well that's suckish, but still it must come in handy sometimes…," Quil still thought it was cool.
"Sam, we really need to be getting back to the problem with the treaty, so we can get this resolved," Harry was losing his patience.
"Right…so, for all intensive purposes of keeping us out a war that none of us want, I say we're even, Jacob's attack is balanced out with Bella's transformation. A show of hands should suffice. Does everyone agree?" Everyone answered Carlisle including Charlie by raising their hands, except Jacob, he raised his paw.
"Well then, the treaty is still in effect and the meeting is adjourned." Carlisle was happy that it turned out so incredibly well.
Personally, I never thought I would have a dog running around my family, never mind a horse sized one. Sam was right the moment they phased to leave, I saw the same tiny fibers of light attach to us only now they extended to include the entire family. There was only one that was dissimilar, Paul's and Irina's was a very different bond, it was a mating bond. All the wolves snapped their heads to them as they both started walking towards each other, as if they were totally alone. In their minds, it was blinding to see the bonds wrap them together, forever.
When my family looked to me for the answers to their behavior it was Jasper who actual answered them, "if I didn't see it for myself, I wouldn't have believed it. They mated with just one look and the sudden surge of emotions was incredible," Jasper said excitedly.
The pack decided to leave them behind to get acquainted with one another. Jacob stayed at our side as the rest of the pack left to bring everyone else home. Charlie had agreed to come by tomorrow and see us, he wanted to be a part of his grandson and daughter's lives, regardless of what they had become. Of course, he thought a nice little threat that if I hurt either of them there would be hell to pay. We followed the family back home to put Masen to bed with Jacob hot on our heels. I couldn't help but wonder if wolves got fleas?
A/N hope you liked it! Sorry it took so long to update, I had a bit of a block but worked through it.
