Hey guys. I know I've been updating a lot lately and I'm sorry if any of you get behind on any of it. I've just had a lot of spare time this week and my mind has been almost exploding with all of these new ideas that I have gotten for this story, so I couldn't control myself with writing. So this chapter is definitely longer than the previous one and it will have a lot of information in it. For those of you who have been curious of Bella's history and how she became a Lycan, well this is the chapter for you. I would like to give my readers a big thank you for all of the support you have shown with this story. It really means a lot to me. This will be my second story that I have ever written and actually completed ever. The last time I have stuck to the same story was back when I was in junior high, and I am now in college so this is a great achievement for me. But have no fear! This story is NOT far from being over by any means. =] I do believe there are still several more chapters in stored for you guys. Also! I have updated the website that has the pictures of the characters in this story. I added Kevin's picture on there and I updated Aigua Hale and Rosalie Hale's page. So if you are interested, you can just go to the link that I have on my profile and if it doesn't work when you click it, just type in your search bar exactly how it looks and it should work. =] Anyway, enough of my ramblings. Here is the next installment of Hidden Soul. I hope you enjoy. =]

Hidden Soul

Chapter Thirteen

I held onto Rosalie for most of the night. I say most of the night because for half of it I spent it looking out the window. I didn't want to take any chances of anyone or anything hurting her. I would rather risk my life than have her lose hers. I know, it's so romantic right? Well during my watch around midnight, everything seemed fine until out of the corner of my eyes I saw a huge dark figure standing near the out skirts of the woods that surrounds her house. I used my vision to zoom in on it more and gradually I started to see bright green eyes staring right back at me. I felt my anger boil up inside me as the angrier I got.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" I whispered loudly, trying not to wake Rosalie up. I turned around to slide my shoes on when I heard Rosalie call out my name.

"Bella? Where are you going?" Rosalie asked as she sat up. I could tell she was still out of it, but I didn't want to worry her.

I smiled at her and said softly, "Don't worry Rose, I'm just going to go outside and take a look around. Just please do me a favor and stay here in your bed okay? If there is any trouble, yell for me as loud as you can and I will be here in a heartbeat."

She nodded her head as I walked out of her room and shut her door as well. I quickly went outside and took a look around to see if I could find those eyes again. I decided that it was useless looking for anything in my human form so I quickly took my shoes off and transformed into my other form. Towering at about ten feet tall, I looked around and used my extra strong vision to look into the night. Since I am pretty much part wolf, I have extremely good vision, especially in the night. This comes in handy on plenty of occasions, especially when hunting. I walked on my back two feet and made sure to stay in the shadows just in case someone were to look out of the window. During my second time around the house, I looked over in time to see a dark form with those green eyes staring right at me. I snarled and started to quickly go after it. Seeing me run towards it, it quickly took off and into the woods. Me being the stubborn ass that I am quickly ran in after it. I know, it probably wasn't that best of an idea, but I was getting tired of being watched. Quickly dodging branches and trees left and right, I was right on its trail. By this time I was quickly getting angered. Out of nowhere something reached out and tripped me, making me fall to the ground with a loud boom. By the time I got up and looked for where it went, I saw that it was nowhere to be found. I growled angrily and looked around for a few more minutes before I heard Rosalie calling out my name. My ears perked up at the sound of her cries and I quickly bolted towards her house faster than I have ever ran on all four legs in my life. I quickly reached her house and didn't even bother transforming back and I climbed up the side of her house using a tree and I quickly jumped inside of her room just in time to see a smaller figure standing in her room. I looked and saw that they also had the bright green eyes. I growled as menacingly as I could and quickly ran over to Rosalie and threw the figure as far as I could away from her.

"Get the fuck away from her!" I snarled loudly as I snapped my teeth at their neck. They quickly dodged it and laughed at me. We started a stare down with one another as I stood protectively in front of Rosalie. I continued to snarl menacingly at the figure, which I could tell that they were having a hard time hiding the effect I was having on them. After a few minutes of staring the figure finally spoke up before they ran out the window.

"I would be careful if I were you Bella. You might want to keep a closer eye on your girl. You wouldn't want anything bad to happen to her…would you?"

I snarled and ran towards the figure, but they jumped out the window before I got to them. It took everything I had to stop myself from running after them, but somehow I managed to stay put. After a few minutes of heavy breathing, I finally transformed back into my human form and quickly walked over to Rosalie and held her in my arms.

"Are you okay? Did they hurt you in anyway?" I asked as I looked over her body for any cuts or bruises or for any harm that could have been done to her.

She cuddled into me tighter as she said, "No, they didn't get the chance to. You came here right before they had the chance to try and touch me."

"Could you tell who it was? I know by how small the figure was that it wasn't a lycan of any kind." I said as I continued to hold her close as my heart tried to start beating normal.

Rosalie shook her head no and looked up at me. "No, I couldn't tell. But I do know that it was a woman of some kind. I feel like I have heard the voice before but I can't think of where I have."

"God, when I heard you scream my name, I thought I wouldn't have made it in time…I thought I lost you…" I said quietly as I looked at her beautiful eyes.

She smiled up at me and kissed my nose softly. "Well you did make it in time. You're my knight in shining armor." She kissed me softly and held onto me tighter.

"I am never leaving you alone again. Not until I figure out what is going on. It's not safe anymore. In fact, I was wondering if you would want to maybe just stay at my house for a while. You can even bring Maxi with you if you would like." I said as I kept on looking at her.

She smiled even more as she said, "Really? You would really do that Bella? But what about the others? I don't want to be a burden on them."

"I don't know if you have noticed but…we have a huge house with plenty of space. And besides, you would be sleeping in my room…I mean…only if you would want to that is."

"Why Bella, I would love to stay in your room." Rosalie said as she smiled at me. I smiled back at her and leaned down to kiss her softly.

"So what did you see while you were out there anyway? I know you must have seen something to make you go outside."

"While I was watching out your window, I saw those green eyes you have been seeing at night. I got angry and went outside to look around and see if I could tell who it was or even what it was. By the time I got out there, it was gone, so I decided to transform and then continue the search from there. Well, during my second round around the house, I saw it again in the outline of the woods, so I chased it. Well that was where I messed up. There are definitely two of them whatever they are that is watching us. Because the figure I was chasing was definitely another lycan of some kind. It was too dark to tell how big it was or what it even looked like exactly, but I can tell from anywhere when there is another lycan. So when I chased it in the woods, something reached out and tripped me. By the time I got up and looked for the lycan, it was nowhere to be seen. That was when I heard you scream my name so I quickly forgot whatever I was doing and bolted as fast as I could back to your house. I climbed up the tree that is next to your window and jumped inside and that is where it starts where you saw. It's pissing me off so much that I don't know who it is. Normally I can smell a scent on them, but they both are very good at masking it and I hate it. I can't trust them to leave you alone anymore so I am not leaving your side, unless it's to go and visit your grandmother, then I will wait close enough to where I can keep an eye on you." I said as I rubbed my thumb softly along her cheek.

She closed her eyes and cuddled against me as close as she could. "Mm, I definitely don't mind that at all. I feel safe with you and I know you will keep me safe from harm. So yes, I will stay with you and I am bringing Maxi with us. So if the others don't like it, then they will have to get over it."

I laughed at that and held her as she slowly drifted off to sleep again. I was too amped up to even try and go to sleep, so I ended up staying up for the rest of the night. Soon enough the sun came up and she was still out like a light so I decided to get up and go make her some breakfast. I kissed the top of her head softly and I slowly disentangled myself from her limbs and quietly left the room. I kept my ears at the ready so I could hear any noise that goes on in the house. If a feather were to drop, I would even be able to hear that, that's how excellent my hearing is at the moment. I decided on making her pancakes and scrambled eggs since I knew that was her favorite breakfast food. After making them, I put them all on a plate and poured her a glass of chocolate milk. Putting everything on a tray, I made my way back up the stairs, thankfully not spilling anything in the process. I guess that is a plus side to heightened senses, I can sense where everything is at and avoid collisions. I opened her door and quietly entered, shutting the door in the process. I laid the tray on her night stand and I quietly slipped back into bed and wrapped her back in my arms. It was a few minutes after that when I finally heard her move around. She stretched a little and then looked up at me and smiled hugely.

"Well good morning beautiful. How did you sleep?" I asked as I kissed the top of her head softly.

She blushed and curled up against my side and rested her hand on my lower stomach, giving me butterflies. "I slept amazing. How did you sleep?"

I contemplated on if I should tell her the truth or not, and I decided that I shouldn't lie to her. "Well I couldn't sleep after that whole incident last night."

She frowned and looked at me. "Why not?"

"I couldn't risk closing my eyes and them coming back to hurt you. And I was way too amped up to even try to sleep."

She gave me a questioning look while she asked, "Amped up? What does that mean exactly?"

I smiled at her and held her closer. "When lycans get angered, their body produces more adrenaline than a normal human does when they get angry or scared. The only difference is that the angrier we get, the more adrenaline our body produces. If we produce too much we get what humans would call "hyper" and we can't do anything but be on watch. Seeing whoever they were last night got my blood to boil so much that my body produced too much adrenaline and I got what we like to call "amped up." Before you ask, no it doesn't affect my body in any way, shape, or form. In fact, I feel completely energized and ready to take on the day." I said confidently as I looked down at her. I could see her nostrils flare up at the sudden smell of food that reached her. She looked over and saw the tray with the plate of pancakes, scrambled eggs, and a glass of chocolate milk that I have placed on the nightstand.

She suddenly started smiling like an idiot, which I found completely adorable. "Aw! Did you make me breakfast Bella?"

I smiled and reached over and slid the tray on her lap. "Yes I did. I saw you sleeping so soundly and I wanted to make you breakfast. So I got up earlier this morning and made you some. Don't worry, my cooking isn't bad. It's not nearly as good as your grandmothers, but I can cook I promise."

She laughed and kissed my lips softly. "Thank you so much Bella. I love yo…I mean…I love that you did this for me." Rosalie said while smiling at me.

I started to watch her eat her breakfast. Wait a minute…was she about to tell me that she loves me? I think she was…oh my god I really hope she loves me. I know she's my mate and everything and I'm supposed to have a strong love connection with her, but I do feel very strong feelings for her and I know that they would still be there even if I wasn't mated to her. I know that I love her and I have felt that way for a while now. I keep on waiting for her to tell me because, yes even though she is my girlfriend, I'm so scared of getting rejected. I have never had these strong of feelings for someone in my life and feeling all of this for the first time scares me to pieces. So the last thing I want to have done is getting rejected, especially from Rosalie. I was brought out of my thoughts by her hand waving in my face.

"Bella? Earth to Bella! Hello? You in there?" Rosalie asked as she waved her hand in my face still.

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at her. "Huh?"

She giggled at me and I looked and saw that she was done eating. Man, either she ate fast or I was lost in thought longer than I thought. "I was asking what you wanted to do today but it seems to me that you are kind of out of it. Are you okay? You sure you don't need any sleep?"

I smiled at her and moved the tray off of her lap to place it back onto the night stand. "I'm fine Rosalie. I guess I was just lost in my own thoughts. But, I don't care what we do. As long as I'm with you then I am happy."

She blushed and scooted closer to me. "Well, do you want to help me pack a few things and then take Maxi and head over to your house? We can think of what to do then."

I slowly got up and helped her up as well. I saw that she opted for pants this time instead of sleeping in her underwear. "Alright, that sounds fine for me. I'll go downstairs and clean up these plates and you can start packing. I'll be right back to come help you okay?"

She smiled and kissed me softly. She then smacked my butt playfully and pushed me towards the door. I giggled at her and took the tray downstairs and cleaned the dishes. When I came back up into her room, I saw that she had most of her things packed, which impressed me. After a few more things thrown into her bag, we grabbed Maxi and hopped into my car and we drove back to my house. Last night I texted Carina to have one of them go out and buy a food and water bowl for Maxi, since I had already planned on Rosalie staying with me right after the incident happened. So we didn't worry about the food or anything at her house, which saved us a lot of time. We decided to play games with everyone. We played Scrabble, Sorry, Twister, and then eventually Blain got Rosalie to play with him on the Xbox, which is what they are doing right now. Carina came and sat down next to me on the couch and smiled at me.

She then leaned over to talk to me so only I could hear, which wasn't hard since Destiny was too busy looking through her magazines, and Blain and Rosalie were distracted by the game. "So, is everything okay?"

After Rosalie went to sleep last night, I called Carina up and told her what happened. She then insisted that we should plan something in case that were to happen again, but I told her we would talk about it as a group later. I nodded my head at her and said, "As of right now, yes everything is fine. Thank god I got to her in time. I don't know what I would have done if I wasn't fast enough."

I felt her put her hand on my shoulder softly. "Well don't think that Bella. Don't put any more stress on you than you already have okay? Just keep reminding yourself that you did make it in time and that she's alive and safe. I will give you my word that she will be safe here with us. I mean at her house there was only one lycan against those bastards. Now they would be messing with three lycans and a coming of age one, along with your parents and ours as well. I'm pretty sure we have them out numbered and they won't try anything here. And if they do then they are just plain stupid."

I laugh some at that and pull Carina into a hug. "Thank you Carina. Thank you for always knowing just what to say to cheer me up."

She grinned at me and returned the hug. "Why you're welcome Bells. What are best friends for huh? And you're my Alpha and we are supposed to look out for one another. That's what you have always told us, right?"

I smiled and nodded my head yes. "I suppose that is right. I'm glad you actually listened to something I have said for once." I say teasingly.

She sticks her tongue out at me and smiles. "Hey, I told you I don't block you out most of the time."

I smacked her arm teasingly which caused us to laugh. I suddenly felt a body come straddle my lap and I looked to see that Rosalie was on my lap looking at me while smiling. I gave her a big smile back and kissed her softly. "So who won?" I asked as I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Your girlfriend did. If I wasn't mistaken, she lied to me when she said she has never played Call of Duty before." Blain said as he stood up to turn the Xbox off.

I laughed at his mopey face but then quickly wiped it off when he sent me a glare. "Aw did poor Blain get his ass kicked by a girl?"

"No! She just cheated that's all!" Blain said accusingly.

I heard Rosalie laugh and say, "How in the hell can you cheat in Call of Duty? All you do is walk around and shoot at people. I can't help that you have crappy aim."

"I do not! My gun was defective! It wouldn't aim right! I demand a rematch!"

"And get your ass kicked again for the twentieth time?" Rosalie asked as she grinned at him. I couldn't help but to crack up and soon Carina and Destiny were laughing as well.

"I would give it up little bro. I think Rosalie has beaten your ass way too many times. I would just walk away while you still have some dignity left." Destiny said teasingly.

Blain just glared at all of us before saying, "Oh yeah? Well just wait Rosalie! I'll find a game that I know I can kick your ass in! Then we will see who is laughing now!"

"I think it will still be us Blain." Carina said while trying to hold in her laughter.

"Shut up! I'm going up to my room!"

Once he left we all cracked up again. After a few more minutes it all died down and soon enough it was just Rosalie and I left in the living room. We looked at each other and grinned.

"I find it extremely hilarious that you kicked Blain's ass in his favorite game." I said as I looked at her.

She laughed at that and smiled at me. "I guess it helps that I have played Call of Duty so many times with Jasper huh? Remind me to thank him later."

We laughed for a few more minutes until it died down. We both just stared at one another and I found myself leaning in slowly. She leaned in as well and right before I felt her lips on mine, she pulled away just enough to say quietly, "Bella, I need to tell you something. Can we go somewhere more private?"

I felt my heart start to race. What does she need to tell me? I hope it isn't anything bad. "Sure sweetheart. We can go in my room if you want."

She shook her head no softly and looked at me. "By private, I mean somewhere where we can talk without any wondering ears."

I nodded my head softly and slowly took her hand and walked out the door. She was starting to walk towards my car when I stopped her. She looked at me confused and I moved far away from her so I wouldn't hurt her and transformed into my other form. She looked surprised for a minute before walking up towards me. Since I was standing at ten feet tall, I had to get on all four legs so she could see my face. I felt her hand lay on my snout and I nuzzled into it lightly so I wouldn't hurt her. I then moved my face a little and said so she can hear me, "Get on my back. We can get to a more private place faster if we go like this. But make sure you hold onto me tightly okay?" She nodded her head and I leaned down so she could climb on. Once she was safely on and holding tight, I then started to run towards a spot where we can talk. It took me only twenty minutes to get there, but if we would have driven it would have taken us two hours. I stopped at a meadow I have found during my run the other night and leaned down so she could get off. Once she was safely off, I moved away from her and transformed back into my human form. We went and laid down on the ground in the middle of the meadow. I turned my head so I could see her.

"So what was it that you wanted to tell me Rosalie?" I asked nervously.

She looked at me and sighed softly. "For the last few weeks…I um…I have been feeling different…"

Oh god…please don't tell me she's breaking up with me. She must have seen the panic on my face and she quickly placed her hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry Bella, this has nothing to do with us okay?" I nodded my head and she proceeded to talk. "Anyway, the last few weeks I have been feeling different…almost as if I have this huge shield that has been placed over me. I have wanted to do nothing but protect you or anyone else from everything. For the last few weeks I have been waking up late at night to go relax by the water that is in the pond by my house. For some reason, when I'm by any water whether it be a pond, lake, or even a river or stream, I have felt so peaceful and relaxed…almost as if no one could harm me. I've been so confused with all of this and I needed answers so I went to my grandmother the other day. She proceeded to tell me that I'm an Aloja." Rosalie said while looking at me.

An Aloja? I think I have heard of them before, but I wasn't quite sure what they were. I do know that it was only women who became them. "What is an Aloja? My father has told me some stories about them, but I'm still not quite sure what exactly they are."

"An Aloja is someone who brings good fortune to others. They are protectors and will protect anyone who they care or love deeply. If they feel threatened, they have this power where they can throw a shield over themselves or someone else and anyone who is underneath that shield won't have any harm caused to them. My grandmother told me that is the reason why my mother is the way she is today. When her and my aunt was born, my aunt was born with the gene instead of my mother as well. As she got older, she started to realize this and she somehow put it in her head that we are terrible monsters. All of that is a lie and we are not terrible at all. Grandma told me that the reason why my gene is just now becoming active is because serious danger is coming our way, making my gene awaken inside my body and soul. She told me to protect you and anybody else that we both care and love for because whatever is coming, it is pure evil. I'm really sorry for keeping all of this from you Bella, and I know it is a lot to take in so I would understand if you didn't want to talk to me for a few days."

I turned to my side to wrap my arms around her and pull her close. "Rosalie, I told you I would never leave you, and I am keeping to that promise. Yes, all of this is a lot to take in, but I can handle it. I know you could never be anything bad because you are too much of a sweetheart to be otherwise. I know how it feels to be different from everyone else out there. I mean hell, I'm a freaking ten foot tall lycan for heaven's sake! I'm far from being normal Rosalie. I'm honored that you told me what you really are and I swear to you that I will never tell anyone unless you told me otherwise. Your secret is safe with me sweetheart." I said as I kissed her cheek softly.

She smiled a bunch and pulled me closer to her. We stayed like this for the longest time until we started asking random questions…well it was more like her asking me the questions.

"So, what was it like when you found out you were a lycan? I mean, I am assuming that you were the first out of everyone." Rosalie asked as she laid her head on my chest.

I continued to rub her back softly and slowly. "Well I found out I was a lycan when I turned 16, which as you know is the coming of age for a lycan. Since I was the first one, I was so lost and I felt like I was alone in the world. Back then I wasn't the closest to my parents, you know with the whole teen rebellion stage and all that. My father kept telling me that change was soon going to happen and that it was going to completely change my ways of how I view life, myself, or even my friends. Back then I didn't know Destiny, Blain, or even Carina. Devin was my best friend back in high school. I remember he would always have my back when someone tried to pick fights with me. Of course, I would always win because even before I turned I was still pretty strong. It could have been the Alpha in my blood, or it could have been pure strength I'm not for sure either way. On my 16th birthday was when I started noticing changes in my body. I found myself getting angrier more often, even at the smallest of things. I remember one day at school a boy looked at me what I thought at the time was the wrong way. I just remember going ape shit on the kid and I ended up breaking several of his bones. Devin was there by my side the whole time and he was the reason why I stopped kicking the kid's ass in the first place. I came home and told my parents about what was happening to me and that was when they sat me down and told me everything that was about to happen. Charlie made me start training with him while my mother helped me with controlling my anger. A few months after that, Devin turned 16 and he started going through the same changes as well. At the time we were both under the leadership of my dad because I wasn't experienced enough to be alpha yet. Devin and I both had our share of fights due from our anger problems, even though mine was the worst. It was then on my 17th birthday that I realized my power of being Alpha. Devin was being his usual asshole self towards me and I finally had enough of it. I kept telling him to back off and he wouldn't so the more he kept bothering me, the angrier I became. It got to the point where I couldn't hold it back any longer and I felt this strong feeling of power rushing through my veins. It was then that I used that power to force him to stop and he stopped suddenly. The more he kept trying to fight it, the more pain he was in. After that I went running to Charlie telling him about this odd sense of power that was still rushing throughout my whole body. He told me that I was now old enough to become an Alpha. Well since there was only two of us at the time, I didn't need a Beta so Devin was forced to follow everything I said. Weeks after that, Destiny soon joined my pack and then a year after that Carina joined. Charlie then told me that whenever Blain turns 16 that he will be joining as well and that it was my duty to watch over him and train him in our ways and how we live. We all grew very close, including Blain. I took him in like he was my little brother, even though he has yet to join the pack. He even follows orders from me because he sees me as a parent figure since his parents wasn't around for him like they were for his sister. Now I am stronger than ever and I wouldn't change it for anything." I finally finished off my story. During the whole time I was talking, she was listening intently and I knew she was actually paying attention too.

"So you and Devin were pretty close huh?" Rosalie asked while looking at me.

I nodded my head and smiled sadly. "Yeah, we were. He was like my brother and my best friend at the same time. I couldn't have asked for a better Beta than him. I felt so betrayed when he decided to leave the pack."

She looked at me confused before asking, "Why did he leave the pack?"

Shit I didn't mean to let that slip. Rosalie knew he left, but she didn't know the reason why. I sighed softly. I guess now is the time that I should tell her. "Well after I met you on the first day, Devin started to act strange towards myself and the pack and he slowly started to distance himself from everyone. I told Carina first about me being mated to you and how I really liked you and I guess when I was in my lycan form when I ran to you when Alice was about to attack you, I suppose Devin read my mind and saw that I was mated to you. When I got home that night, he went complete ape shit on me. Of course we dueled it out and I won by pinning him down and threatening to exile him."

"Exile? What does that mean to exile someone?" Rosalie asked.

"For Lycan packs, wolf packs, or even werewolves, to exile someone is to basically kick them out of the group. When that happens, all ties that they once had with the pack are completely destroyed and they will never be allowed back in. A key part in survival for us is to travel and live in groups, otherwise if we are by ourselves then we are called Omegas. An Omega rarely lives on their own. They are usually hunted down by either hunters or other packs and usually tortured and killed immediately. That is because a lone wolf, lycan, or werewolf is extremely weak and vulnerable. We are at our strongest when we are surrounded by others of our kind." I said as I looked at her. She nodded her head like she understood so I continued on. "Anyway, after threatening him, he finally backed down for the night and let it go. After our date and after you asked me out, I made the same mistake of going back into my other form and letting my mind wonder and that was how he found out me and you were dating. When I got home, he went absolutely ballistic and started threatening you. There is one thing you never want to do and that is threaten our mates. That is almost like asking for the death sentence for us. So of course after he threatened you, I completely started to attack him. It was then that I was about to exile someone but he decided to leave the pack. I don't know what he is up to or if he is even in a pack, but considering he came to Destiny's party, he is still alive. I just hope he will learn the error of his ways and come back. He was really a strong fighter and excellent to have as Beta."

Rosalie looked apologetic at me. "I'm so sorry Bella. I feel like this is all my fault."

I quickly stopped her and slid my hands onto her cheeks. "No, it's not your fault Rosalie. Don't you ever think it's your fault. If anything, it's his fault because he is so narrow minded. He'll soon learn that he was wrong and I'll be here to let him back in."

"But how can he come back into your pack if he walked out on it?" Rosalie asked.

"Well, I never did exile him, so that means all connections with the pack are broken for the time being. Once he walks back in, he can then communicate with us just as before."

"Man…all of this lycan pack stuff gets confusing. How do you keep up with it?" Rosalie asked as she looked at me and grinned.

I giggled and kissed her cheek softly.

"So are both of your parents Lycans?"

"Well yes and no at the same time." I said.

She looked at me confused. "What do you mean by that?"

I laughed while saying, "Well Charlie is a full blooded Lycan and Rene is only half Lycan."

"Half Lycan? How can you become half Lycan?"

"When my mother and father met they were pretty much banned from seeing one another because Charlie's parents didn't approve of their relationship. My mother at the time was only human and my father was a Lycan, which back in wasn't acceptable and in some Lycan families it still isn't acceptable. His parents wanted him to meet another female Lycan so that way the blood line would stay pure and not be ruined by "a weak human." But my parents didn't care what they said and so they continued to see one another, but in secret. It eventually got leaked out about their relationship and that was when Charlie's parents gave him a choice to either forget about Rene and leave the area immediately, or stay with her and be exiled from the pack and disinherited. Well my father loved Rene so much that he risked being killed from being exiled. That was when he found out about his power of being an Alpha and that was what saved him from all the other packs. They both got married during college and that was when Charlie bit Rene so she would become half Lycan. I guess it is known that if a Lycan wants either more numbers in their pack or if they love someone so much who isn't a Lycan as well, then they can bite the other person and they will become a Lycan...well in a way. They won't get to transform into one, but they do have the heightened senses and their eyes changes colors. I have never met my grandparents on my father's side, but I have met them on Rene's side."

"So I'm going to assume that her parents know about you guys?" Rosalie asked.

"Yes they know. After my parents got married and Rene was pregnant with me, they decided that it would be best in the long run if they told them." I said as I looked at Rosalie.

She looked up into my eyes and smiled more. "How did they take it?"

"From what Charlie told me, he said they took it very well. They were just really glad that their daughter was going to be well protected. So not that I don't mind you asking me all of these questions, but why are you?" I asked as I looked at her.

She shrugged her shoulders a little and began to say, "I don't know really. I just feel like I don't fully know your background history or anything like that. I just want to know every little piece of information, you know?"

I smiled and looked at her and in her eyes. I have a feeling that things were about to get very serious very fast. "You know…we have the rest of our lives to learn each other from front to back...I mean…if you wanted to."

She looked at me and I saw her pause for a second or two. I can see that she knows where this is leading to. "I want to."

I looked in her eyes when she said that. "Really? I mean…I don't want you to feel like you're being pressured into feeling anything."

She laughed quietly and put her hand on my cheek softly. "Bella, I want to be with you and I am planning on being with you for a very long time. I know we have this whole mate connection, but even if we didn't…I know I would still feel the same about you that I do now. Bella…I…I love you. I love you so much and this past almost two months has been the best two months of my life. I've been wanting to tell you this for a while now and I was planning on telling you this morning but I froze and got scared."

I looked at her and I put both of my hands on her cheeks lightly and ran my thumbs across them while looking in her eyes and saying, "Rosalie, you should never be scared of telling me your feelings. Ever okay? I'm in love with you Rosalie Hale. I'm so in love with you that it worries me because I'm scared I'm going to scare you away because of who I am or that something is going to happen to you. And if it does then I will be damned to let it happen, especially before I got to tell you how I feel about you. I knew from day one that I was going to love you, that our relationship will be unlike any other. There was something about you that grabbed onto me and I couldn't stop myself from being pulled in. Hell, I didn't want to be stopped from being pulled in. I want to be the one that protects you. I want to be the one that you come to when you need to talk. I wouldn't be able to handle seeing you with anyone else. I've felt this way for you since the first day of school and I can't hold it in any longer. Now I'm going to kiss you and if you don't want me to, then I will give you ten seconds starting right now to move away." I finished saying as I looked at her. I saw that she wasn't moving so I quickly leaned in and pulled her in for a deep, loving kiss.

I felt her kissing me back and soon enough the kiss became heated. I felt her hands slide down my sides slowly as I laid my hands on her hips lightly. I moved us so I was on top of her. I started kissing along her jaw line and then traveled down to her neck. I felt her slowly slide her hands under my shirt and up my abs. I slowly pulled away enough and looked down at her.

"Are you sure you want to do this? We don't have to if you're not comfortable enough." I asked as I ran my fingers up and down her sides slowly.

She looked up at me and smiled a bunch. "Bella, I've never been more sure than right now. I have wanted this to happen for a few weeks now, I just didn't want to seem like we were rushing. Just promise me that you'll be gentle."

I leaned down and kissed her softly. "I give you my word that I won't hurt you. I love you." I said quietly.

She smiled up at me as she said, "I love you too."

I felt her lift up my shirt so I let her take it off of me. Pretty soon we were both in nothing but our bras and underwear. As I was kissing her, I felt her hands slowly slide up along my back and reach my bra clasp. She pulled away and gave me the look asking if it was okay, which I nodded at her and smiled. I felt her unclasp it and soon enough my bra fell to the ground. I saw her look at my chest, which made me smile. I gave her the approval to give attention to them. Pretty soon we were both panting and trying to fix our need by grinding on one another. We managed to somehow take each other's underwear off and that was when it all became a blur. All I remember was the many I love you's and several orgasms that came from both of us. We were both lying down next to each other, both at peace. I looked up and saw that the moon was shining and that it was almost a full moon.

"That was…wow…" Rosalie said as she tried to catch her breath.

I smiled and looked at her. "That was better than I ever thought it would be. You ready for another round?" I asked while grinning at her.

Her face lit up like a Christmas tree as she straddled my lap and leaned down to kiss me softly. "I love you Isabella Swan."

I leaned up and kissed her deeply. "And I love you Rosalie Hale."

And there you guys go. That was my lame attempt at trying to write a sex scene. As you can probably tell, I'm not very good at writing that. I don't know what it is about those types of scenes but it's very awkward for me to write so I am very sorry if I disappointed any of you. I will let you know that this isn't a smutty fan fiction so there probably won't be a whole lot of sex scenes in this story. I'm sorry for those of you who expected there to be one, but I feel like this story should have more of a plot line instead of all smut. Like always, I encourage you guys to please send a review telling me how you like the story or chapter. It really does help me stay motivated and it lets me know that there are people out there that actually like my story. Any questions you may have or ideas for the story are more than welcome. I will try to answer them as soon as I can for you. Once again I would like to give a big thank you to all of you wonderful people who has favorite/followed/reviewed this story or myself. It really means a lot to me. I don't know when the next chapter will be posted. I will be getting kind of busy with school soon because I will have a few big papers that will be assigned to me at the same time. So please be patient with me and I will update as soon as I can. =]
