Chapter 25

EPOV

We had been hunting for no more than several hours when I felt that something was wrong but shook it off to the surroundings. I did not like to be away from Bella for too long especially since she had not been feeling well the last couple of days. The urge just to leave and go back to her was overwhelming. But Jasper was keeping a close eye on my emotions. I could not go back to her without hunting first.

As the hunting trip drew on my uneasy feeling kept growing to the point where I went to find Carlisle My father told me to calm down and that he would accompany me back to the house.

As we stood at the shore my father placed his hand on my shoulder. 'Edward, Bella is going to be fine if anything was wrong she would have called.' He said but I shook my head at his statement.

"No father she is alone in the house, we no phones. And even if she did have one she would try and get through it on her own you no she likes to do things her way." I told him before diving into the water, I heard Carlisle do the same and we swam as fast as we could back to isle Esme.

Once we had gotten back to the island I could smell nearly day old blood and hear two heartbeats emanating from the house, but could not smell either Emmett or Seth. I ran into the house with Carlisle right on my heels, the smell of blood got stronger as drew closer to my bedroom, I did not know whether to be frantic or calm because I could smell Bella strongly and hear her heart. I slowly approached reaching a shacking hand out to the door handle which I opened slowly. The sight that greeted us was one of pure shock.

Bella was fast asleep, her chest rising and falling in a slow deep motion, but all the pillows were built up around her like a fortress wall. I could only see her head and half of her naked chest. My father and I walked quietly over to the bed where we saw what was behind the wall of pillows. Bella was cradling something to her chest, something that she had wrapped in a towel.

"Father what…?" I pointed to Bella. But was drawn quickly to the bathroom where the thick scent of blood was coming from. I walked over be careful not to wake my wife. The room was steamed and the shower still running. But what caught me off guard was the trail of blood that went from the shower over to the sink, to the toilet then towards to the door and then pooling at the edge of the bed. I stepped over it and turned off the shower then went back to the door so that I could get Carlisle.

"Father, what has happened?" I asked starting to get panicked by the sight of all the blood. He looked at me concerned. He turned his attention back to Bella who was easier to see from this angle. The towel that was covering her low half was stained with a large amount of blood.

"Now son I think it is easy to see what has happened here. Bella most of gone into labour." He said indicating to the towel cover bundle.

I left the bathroom and walked over to the bed. I pushed some of the wet hair that was clinging to Bella's face off her cheek. She looked flushed and sweating. I gently placed a soft kiss on her temple. Bella turned into my touch but did not wake. That was when I got a good look at the bundle, she was an angel. Pale as her mother, big pouting red rose bud lips, long dark eyelashes and thick black hair.

"Carlisle look at her." I said to my father as he came towards the bed. He looked over my shoulder and looked down at both Bella and the angel.

"Well I'll be." He said silently looking at them both. "I think it would be a good idea to wake her up. I need to check her over make sure she is ok." He said looking back at me. I turned to him and nodded.

I gently pulled the towel up over her body a little. This woke her up. She rubber her eyes as she looked up at me.

"Edward, is that you?" She asked sleepily. She looked down at the sleeping form in her arm.

"Yes, love it's me. It looks like you have been busy while we were all out hunting." I said pulling her into my arms. She looked at me with such love in her face for the baby in her arms.

"Bella, I need to check you over to make sure that nothing is wrong, you seemed to have lost a lot of blood." My father told her she moved in my arms never letting go of our new born daughter.

"Bella let me hold her while Carlisle checks you over." I told her gently holding my arms out to her. She looked at me reluctantly, then handed me the beautiful angel. "Edward will you get her some clothes. I am sure she would feel a little better with something clean on. You are covered in a lot of blood." He told her. I nestled the baby into the crock of my arm as I went over to closet, I pulled out Bella's houses clothes and laid they on the end of the bed while Carlisle check her over.

"You have lost a lot of blood my dear it could become worst, especially if we had not come back in time. You could have left that little one there with no mother." Carlisle told her while helping her to sit up a little. "I am going to leave you to get dressed I will be back in a moment I am going to call Emmett." He said standing and placing a kiss on Bella's forehead. "You did a wonderful job on your own though I am going to set up a drip and some blood for you." He said as he left the room.

I stood at the end of the bed, just staring at my wife. I placed the baby down on the bed next to all the pillows and helped Bella into her clothes. She fell against me several times as she was far too weak to stand on her own feet. Not even when she was bleeding to death in my arms did she look this tiny and frail. It worried me.

I helped her get back into bed and climbed under the covers next to her, my baby daughter lay sleeping in her towel. As Bella looked down at her I saw staring loving at the tint thing.

"My love." I said pulling her focus to me. "What have you decide on a name for our little angel?" I asked taking her hand in mine.

"Lilith Elizabeth." She said a weak smile dancing on her lips. I lent and kissed her as passionately as I could without coursing her anymore discomfort.

"Beautiful name, for a beautiful little angel." I said taking hold of one of Lilith's tiny hands. She wrapped her tiny fingers around mine.

"Edward, if I get worse, I need you to change me. I don't want to lose you." She breathed her eyes fluttering shut. I kissed her forehead then removed myself and Lilith from the bed. I went back over to the closet and pulled out the necessary things to dress my tiny baby daughter.

At that moment I heard Emmett and the others return. "Hey Carlisle what are you doing back so soon. I thought that you weren't coming back till tomorrow?" Emmett boomed from the front door.

"Emmett, will you keep your voice down Luna is fast asleep." Jacob snapped at my brother. "Will you both be quiet as Bella is very ill and asleep?" My father said calmly to both of them.

"What my little sis is ill, but she was fine when we left her this morning." Emmett said a little panicked at the fact. 'Shit, why did we have to leave her on her own? She said that she was fine that she didn't mind at all. What the hell could of happened and the baby?'

"Carlisle is she ok, what is wrong with her, how is the baby?" They all seemed to ask at once in overly panicked voices. I stepped out into the hallway with Lilith nestled once again in my arms. I made my way down to where everyone was gathered.

"Everyone keep our voices down, Bella is fine very weak. As she spent I am guessing the whole day in labour and gave birth in the shower all on her own." I said feeling anger swell in me. "Why did you leave her?" I asked after everyone had recomposed themselves.

"She gave birth on her own." Leah gasped, her hands flying to her mouth. All the boys' mouths fell to the floor. That was the moment that Lilith started to cry.

"Edward I think she is hungry." Carlisle informed me. I looked down at her, and made my way to the kitchen, where I pulled out a bottle. I turned and saw Jacob entered the kitchen with a wide awake Luna.

"I think that she understand that there is something wrong with Bella." He said taking out another bottle and placing it in Luna's open mouth. I pulled Lilith's out of the microwave and gave it to her.

"I need to get back to Bella. She does not sleep well if I'm not there." I told him. I didn't want to get into a conversation with him as he still did not trust Bella with Luna May.

"I think it would be a good idea if Luna stays with Bella it might help her." Jacob said following me to my room.

"Thank you it would mean the world to Bella to have her two girls with her." I said opening the door. Bella was curled up in a tight ball a look of pain etched across her face. I placed Lilith down in the mosses basket then indicated for Jacob to place Luna May in her crib. He left moments later after making sure she was alright with her bottle.

I rushed over to Bella carrying Lilith's basket with me and placing her gently on the chest at the end of the bed. I then climbed in next to Bella and wrapped my arms around her body but unlike most nights when she would relax from this posse she stayed in the ball. Carlisle came in an hour after I did and set up a temporary drip and blood for her.

During the night she screamed out more times than I could have imagined. It was like the weeks after she woke from a coma and there was nothing neither I nor Carlisle could do to help her. She scared me more than I could of imagined.
