Is the Encounter really over?

Chapter 15: Goodbye Leo?
Leora POV
I was in another dream controlled by Lancaster. How did this happen? Why didn't Bella's shield protect me?
I heard screams and shouts of "I can't see!" and "What's going on?" my real hands clawed at the air, trying to grab hold of something, but I found absolutely nothing. Pained howls erupted, ringing in my ears.
"Alec…!" Edward hissed. Now I understood.
The moment Bella relaxed and dropped her shield, Lancaster put me in this dream while Alec stripped all of my extended family's senses. Bella couldn't replace her shield, because she couldn't see whom to protect.
This dream world was black. Never-ending darkness. Flashes of red danced around. No, not dancing, falling. They were my friends and family collapsing onto the ground, yelping in pain. Jane had joined us.
Lancaster appeared, walking towards me slowly. He changed his appearance so that he had his flawless vampire beauty, but the body of L as a ten-year old. No, I reminded myself. This was L. This was the boy I was supposed to spend my life with, have children with him. I was supposed to grow old beside him. He'd changed so much…but it was still him. L was Lancaster now. He always had been.
