Chapter 2: The Denali's

POV: Bella

I tried to travel only at nights to avoid the humans that may cross my path; I didn't want to slip up. It took me a week and a half to find the area that they lived; I knew I had when I smelt the sweet scent around a beautiful red bricked house.

I went up to the door and knocked three times, I didn't want to seem threatening so I took a few steps back. I could hear them in the house.

"I wonder who that could be. No one ever visits us." I heard someone say, I wondered how they would react to me when they saw a vampire with bright red eyes at there door?

The door opened and a beautiful woman stood there she had strawberry blond hair and pale white skin; she was staring at me not knowing what to make of me, two other women came to stand behind her all interested in the visitor at their door.

"Hello." I said I wasn't sure what else to say how to begin to explain.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" the woman in the middle asked.

"Oh sorry… my names Bella, I am here because I need your help." I pleaded with them; they looked at me looking concerned I knew that they were unsure of me. I had to explain.

"I'm looking for the Denali's, are you them?" they nodded but did not speak so I carried on. "I was wondering if you would help me. I was bitten by a vampire and well… I was changed." I said my voice breaking on the last word as I was reminded of what I was and without Edward.

"Its ok sweetheart." A woman told me pushing by the others; she pulled me inside and put her arm around me. "I am Kate and this is Tanya…" she said pointing to the strawberry blond woman. "And this is Irina." She pointed towards the other woman who still stood behind Tanya. She led me to the sofa and sat me down; she was smiling at me warmly. I liked her.

"Ok so why don't you explain?" she asked me when the other two sat down.

"I was in the forest just walking around and a vampire came out of the trees, I knew him his friend had tried to kill me once and I guess he came to finish the job." I told the quietly, they all looked at me in utter shock.

"How are you still alive?" Tanya asked.

"I don't know, one minute he was biting me and the next he had vanished. I don't know where he went." I told her honestly.

"How did you survive his friend if you were only human?"Irina asked.

I could not tell them that I knew the Cullen's. What if they contacted them I couldn't stand seeing Edward so disappointed that I was now a vampire especially since he did not love me? So I decided to not tell the whole truth. "I knew some vampires when I was human, they helped me, and they killed him." I wasn't lying I just didn't tell them that they knew the vampires, that they were like second family to them. They all sat there still as stone all staring at me. "They told me of the vegetarians living in Alaska. So I came to find you I was wondering if you could help me follow your diet. I don't want to eat humans. Please help me." I said looking them all in the eyes, hoping that they would help me. I couldn't do it all alone.

"Of course we will." Said Kate with a smile, she took my hand in hers and gave it a gentle squeeze. "If only you came two weeks ago you would had had the expertise of our friend Carlisle and his family." I felt myself freeze at the mention of the Cullen's; this little sentence caused me so much pain.

"Yes they would all love you." Tanya told me. I was not really listening, I felt sick. I knew it was all in my head, vampires could not physically feel sick.

"I wish they could have stayed longer, I think I would have been able to cheer Edward up." Tanya said wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.

My heart felt like it was being shredded at Tanya's mention of Edward. Had anything happened between them? I was panicking, feeling a little betrayed until I realised that he was no longer mine. I pulled myself out of the depression I could feel myself falling into and focused on the conversation going on around me.

"Are you sure about this Kate? She is a new born after all." Irina was saying, she was looking at me like I might explode at any moment.

"I promise I won't be a problem, I just want help controlling myself. When I nearly killed those hikers… I would not be able to live with myself." I said with a shiver.

They all looked at me confused. "What do you mean nearly killed?" asked Kate looking stunned. I told them what happened in the forest while they all just stared at me.

"But Bella no new born should be able to do that; they should not be as controlled as you are. You're amazing." Kate said laughing. The three beautiful women were looking at each other in awe, they were amazed… at me?
