A/N Enjoy the next chapter! and thank you to all who reviewed!
Alice POV
"Jasper, I just don't know what to do," I said to him as we sat down in our room. Bella had been missing for two days and I couldn't get a clear vision of her future. It was odd, but it was almost like there was someone stopping me from seeing Bella's future. I knew she was here, and I could see her future, but it was cloudy and fuzzy, not clear like Jasper's and not totally gone like the wolves', just, hazy.
"It's ok, honey," he said as he sat down in front of me and a wave of clam washed over me.
"Thanks, Jasper, but with Edward on edge and me not being able to get a vision, I don't know what to do. I'm so stressed and worried!" I was freaking out and Jasper knew it. He sighed and moved behind me. Placing his hands on my shoulders he began massaging my neck and back.
"You are fine. Alice, Edward needs to get a grip. You are trying your best and that's all you can do. Relax," he said, placing a kiss on my temple. "Relax," another kiss, this one to my neck. "Relax," he whispered, kissing up from my shoulder to my temple. I closed my eyes and leaned back, resting against him.
"Jasper, you make it absolutely impossible for me to be on edge. How am I ever to freak out properly if you're always behind me working your own magic?"
"Mmm, do you enjoy freaking out?" he whispered against my skin.
"Of course not," I said.
"Do you enjoy my magic?" I could hear the smile in his voice as he spoke against my shoulder.
"Very much so," I said as I tilted my head back against his shoulder. He very delicately slid the string of my tank-top off my shoulder and continued the massage, rubbing his hands down my back in very precise movements.
"Alice," he whispered against my skin, his hands sliding over my stomach. My eyes were still closed, and I moved my hands to cover over his.
"Jasper," I whispered back, turning on my side and curling into his body. He laid down on the couch we sat on, kissing my head and rubbing my back. I was so content laying next to him, my body pressed into his.
Edward POV
Bella, where are you? I asked myself that question over and over. After talking to Jessica and Angela, they claimed they hadn't seen her since she went off to the bookstore.
Why, oh why would you go off alone? You should know better, Bella! I silently scolded her in my mind. I needed to find her, desperately. I made a vow to myself, then and there, that whenever I found Bella I would marry her, then and there. I would give her whatever she wanted. It was I vow I wasn't ever going to break.
"Edward, Alice just had a vision. I think you should come downstairs," Esme said. I sighed and dismounted from my position in the middle of our bed. I walked downstairs and into the living room, hoping for the best but expecting the worst.
"Edward, Bella is still alive. They're keeping her in an abandoned warehouse on the south side of Port Angeles. If we leave tomorrow, we should be able to catch them off guard. There are only five of them, so we should be ok. Carlisle?" Alice said this all very quickly, hoping to get it all out before I interjected.
"Edward, we need a plan. Sit down and we can all discuss it together," said Carlisle. I obeyed him and sat down, already formulating a plan in my head.
Bella POV
"Bella love! You have a visitor!" The head vampire called in Rosalie's voice as he walked inside. Behind him, three more vampires filled in. One look at them had me freaking out. They looked vicious, and ready to eat me.
I cowered into the wall as the four approached. "Bella, don't be afraid. This is Demetri, Felix, and Alec. They are here to help us in our little plan," all this was said in Edward's voice, making it all the more painful.
"Bella, so we meet again. You look so grown up! Just two years ago you were a helpless little human, now you're just a helpless human," said Felix, kneeling in front of me and looking me strait in the eye. "Do you remember me, princess?"
"I remember you, and Demetri and Alec, too. You guys all work for the Volturi. You're evil scum," I said with as much force as I could muster.
"Why you little bitch!" screamed Demetri, and he glided forward, moving to slap me across the cheek, but the head vampire stopped him.
"No, Demetri, do not strike at her. She's still weak from everything else that's happened to her. But, if you really want to get back at her, you could bite her," said the vampire.
Demetri's eyes opened wide in confusion, then he saw my neck, arms and legs. Since coming to this godforsaken place, the vampires had come in often to drink my blood, alternating on who would bite and who would suck.
An evil grin spread over Demetri's face as he kneeled next to me. "Now, Bella, this won't hurt a bit," he said maliciously and clamped down on my throat. I screamed in agony as the fire spread from the bite mark, but then Demetri sat up, and Felix replaced his spot.
He sucked the wound until I felt no more fire, and a little while after. Then it was Alec's turn. He kneeled on my other side and gripped my hair, tilting my head back to expose my neck. I thought her would bite my neck, but instead I felt his lips grazing the skin of my shoulder.
Since coming here, the vampires had given me a tank-top and short cloth shorts to wear. Now, Alec pressed his lips to my exposed shoulder, spreading them and licking tenderly the skin. I felt his teeth press down on my shoulder, the fire bursting from the fixed point. I screamed again, wishing for the pain to go away.
Alec leaned back and stood up, leaving me writhing on the floor waiting for the head vampire to come over, but he didn't. Instead, one of the other vampires that fed on me came, and he sucked the venom from my shoulder.
I looked up through bleary eyes and saw the other vampires in front of me. They had all come to drink my blood. The next vampire grabbed my wrist and bit down, more fire exploding. As I cried out, the next vampire sat down and sucked the venom out.
The head vampire kneeled down directly in front of me and grabbed my leg, tracing the skin with his lips all the way to the upper inside of my thigh. He looked up at me with his glowing red eyes, an evil smile playing at his lips. He kissed the spot on my leg where he was going to bite, then bit down.
I had never felt so much pain from one of their bites before then. I screamed and writhed, trying to get away from the pain, but no matter where I went, the pain followed.
He stood up, wiping blood from his lips, and the final vampire kneeled in front of me, sucking out the last of the vampire venom from my body.
They filed out of the room, then; evil smiles playing on each of their features. These vampires were strong, and powerful, and I didn't know why they wanted me, but I was going to find out.
