-Jasper's PoV- -Chapter 9- "Wake up!"
I started to lose my mind during the afternoon of the third day. I wanted to shake her awake and my cock wanted to be buried deep inside her, claiming her as mine. All this time and not a sound from her except that cute little growl when Charlotte called me honey. I doubt she can hear us but at least her instincts seem to be working well. My fingers twitch in her arm. 'Wake up Bella, wake up!' I keep repeating in my head.
I took a deep breath and glanced around the room. Everyone was hovering over my Bella now, it surprised me a little.
Had I been too lost in my thoughts to notice until now?
I growled at their proximity to my mate. 'My mate! Mine!' I wanted them all to leave us alone and my cock couldn't agree more with me. I didn't stop growling until everyone had their backs pressed against the wall again.
I could feel a little fear coming from them. I took another breath and sighed. I knew I was being irrational for the most part, they wouldn't hurt my Bella and they were all mated too.
I didn't want to frighten them, even less hurt them, but they should know better than to come too close her, especially in her current state. It was hard enough to have them in the room at all after I realized she is my mate.
"It shouldn't be long now Jasper, just listen to her heart." Peter informed me gently, trying to calm me down. "We should probably take the dogs outside." He said with humor and chuckled after hearing the hisses and the muttered 'Stupid leeches' coming from all the boys downstairs. I couldn't help but relax a little and laugh at that.
I nodded to Peter after I was able to contain my laughter and added.
"He is right Jacob, even with you smelling like last month's trash, you still have a heartbeat, it may be enough to set her off even if she doesn't really want to hurt you guys. Take one of the cell phones, I will let you all know if and when it's safe to come back."
"Sure, sure." I heard him mutter and the other boys sighed but I could hear them picking up things downstairs, cleaning the place I assumed.
After a few minutes the only heartbeat left was Bella's and it was running so fast and ringing loudly in my ears. I could barely think around the sound, this were the last few minutes I would be able to listen to the beautiful sound. I couldn't bring myself to feel sadness or regret though, Bella would be like me soon, I wont need to keep control of my blood-lust, I will be able to wrap my arms around her without the worry of crushing her bones.
No, I couldn't help but feel glad, overjoyed really, that Bella was turning into a Vampire, my cock couldn't agree more with me. I could only hope she won't hate me for it.
I glanced to the four Vampires in the room.
"It would be best if you all leave too, she doesn't know any of you and she will feel threatened enough by me to add more stress." I said and it was true but I also wanted to be alone with her. I wanted to be the first thing she saw as a Vampire. My cock wanted to do many other things too but I doubted we would be so lucky.
Peter frowned looking at me. "Think you can handle her on your own Major?" He asked seriously. I wanted to laugh at him but just rolled my eyes.
"Well, I didn't say go back to your house Peter. You can all go walk the dogs or something for a while. I will call you if I need help." I smiled, of course I could handle her on my own.
I focused my attention on making soothing circles on her arm, and the sound of her heartbeat after they finally left me alone with my Bella. Her skin already felt smooth as marble and soft as silk. 'Want to keep touching her forever.'
I held my breath as her heartbeat went frantic. 'God she is beautiful.' She was beautiful as a human too of course but with the transformation almost over I could see slight differences.
Her hair looked silky smooth, was a shade lighter and fell beautifully on her shoulders. Her bottom lip was just a little fuller. 'God I want to kiss her!' Her breasts were just perfect. I had to bite my tongue to stop myself from moaning at the sight of them and my fingers twitched again wanting to touch them.
Only a few more minutes and I will be able to hear her voice. 'My mate. Mine!' My thoughts were driving me crazy, I couldn't wait anymore. 'Wake up, wake up!'
I held my breath when her heart finally stopped. As soon as it did I could feel her emotions again, I was overwhelmed for a moment. Surprise and love were the strongest feelings coming from her, a little fear, apprehension and wonder too. 'Please, please don't hate me!'
I removed my hand from her arm very slowly and she took her first breath as a Vampire.
I did the same, taking in her scent I almost moaned, it was better than the scent of her blood while she was human.
Her eyes were still closed, I wanted to touch her again but managed to control myself.
"Bella?" I said softly. She gasped and her eyes opened, blinked a few times and stared intently to the ceiling. 'Not the ceiling! Look at me!' I thought. 'Control yourself Whitlock!'
"Bella darlin'? Can you hear me?" I said softly again. She blinked again and was sitting up so fast it startled her. She turned her head slightly to look right into my eyes. Her breath caught and she smiled, 'God she is fucking beautiful!' Her eyes traveled down my body and opened wide as she noticed my scars, she let out a hiss that made me shiver.
'Fuck! Of course she would find my scars horrible!' But her emotions were off, anger, hurt, vengeance. Odd. I frowned slightly and raised my hands in a peaceful motion.
"I am not going to hurt you Bella... I am sorry about my scars." I sounded a little sad.
"Your instincts are telling you to fear me but please, don't worry I promise I won't hurt you."
I pleaded, looking at her, I didn't want to have to overpower her or use my gift against her.
She frowned at me looking confused for a moment and then shook her head slightly. She didn't seem to be afraid. In a flash she was standing right in front of me, I gasped. She was so close, I could almost feel her skin pressed against mine. I had to suppress a moan.
"Jasper..." She whispered and her hands moved quickly to her mouth, surprised by the sound of her voice, it was the most beautiful sound in the word. I wanted her to speak again.
She took a deep breath and looked down at my arms and throat.
"Jasper who hurt you?" She growled softly. The feeling of anger and vengeance coming from her increased and she placed a hand sofly on my arm, slowly tracing one of the scars there with one of her fingers. 'Oh my God! Fuck!' My cock was instantly hard, painfully pressing against my jeans. Her hand felt so good, I didn't want her to stop touching me. Ever.
She glanced around the room as if expecting to find the enemy.
"It was a long time ago Bella, you don't need to worry about that now, everything is fine I promise." I smiled at her and she calmed down. She glanced around the room again.
"Where is everyone else?" She asked me softly and bit her lip.
"How.. who?" I choked out. How did she know? 'Oh God please tell me she couldn't hear us before.' I saw her grin at me and I just knew she had been able to hear every single thing.
"Can they... hear us?" She narrowed her eyes trying to listen for them.
She frowned after hearing Peter's chuckle coming from somewhere outside the house.
"We will leave you two alone for a couple of hours little sister. Just try to keep him in once piece will you?" Peter said, the others were trying to hold back their chuckles.
Bella raised an eyebrow at me and giggled. "Give him a call before coming back and I will bite him as you requested big brother." I growled softly, shocked by her reaction, she really did hear everything we said. We heard everyone's laughter fading in the distance.
"Thank you for saving me Jasper." She said looking down and biting her lip again.
I placed a finger below her chin and made her look up at me.
"You have nothing to thank me for Bella, I am so glad I was able to get to you in time." I said honestly. I was indeed very glad I found her. She smiled and looked down at her dress.
"You really have good taste, the dress is beautiful." I shook my head.
"You are beautiful Bella." 'And fucking hot! Fucking want to claim you now!' I thought.
My cock was getting desperate. I raised my other hand and placed it softly on her shoulder.
She took a deep breath and leaning slightly closer to me, placing her hands on my shoulders slowly and closed her eyes. 'OhmyfuckingGod! She wants me to kiss her!'
She was very nervous, I could feel it but I could also feel longing, lust and want coming from her, making my own emotions stronger. I took a deep breath as well and placed my hands on her cheeks, tilting her head up a little and leaned down.
When my lips touched hers time stopped. There was nothing else in the world but my Bella. 'My mate. Mine!' She moaned softly and tightened her grip on my shoulders. I wanted to die after hearing her moan, it was my favorite sound in the world. I opened my mouth slightly and traced her bottom lip with the tip of my tongue. She moaned again and opened her mouth as well, allowing me entrance. She tasted like Ambrosia. I moaned into her mouth, I didn't want to stop. I could just stand here kissing her forever.
I moved my hands from her cheeks to her shoulders for a moment, my fingertips tracing the sides of her breasts softly before wrapping my arms around her waist, pressing her against my chest, my tongue moving inside her mouth greedily. She moaned again and moved her hands to my hair, pulling it softly. I couldn't get enough of her, but I had to stop this or I would throw her to the bed in the next ten seconds. This was all instinct, I didn't really mind, not at all but I wanted Bella to be sure this is what she wanted.
It took all my self control to pull away from her. My cock started to plan my demise. I sighed and cupped her face with my hands again. "Bella darlin'..." I breathed. "I want nothing more than to rip that dress into little pieces, throw you to the bed and make you mine."
She moaned at my words and tried to kiss me again. I rested my forehead against hers and took a deep breath. "We need to stop darlin' I don't want to take you without you being completely sure of what's happening."
She whimpered softly. "I know, I know but I just want you so bad Jasper." She whispered.
I growled and turned her around, pressing her back against my chest and my erection against her ass, that made me growl again next to her ear and she shivered. The scent of her arousal was the best thing in the world. I vowed to make keep her wet for me always.
"I want you even more darlin'. Can you feel how much I want you?" I nibbled her ear, my hands resting on her hips and pressed her ass tighter against my erection making her whimper again. 'Need to stop now, need to stop now.' I chanted in my brain.
I sighed and rested my head on her shoulder. Breathing in her lovely scent again.
"I will call everyone else back darlin' before I can't control myself."
She nodded and took a step away from me, that simple action caused me to growl a chilling 'Mine' and pull her back against my chest again. We both gasped and I released her quickly. 'What the fuck was that? Stupid, stupid stupid!' I chastised myself.
"I am so sorry Bella... I am not sure what happened." I said lamely, dropping my head, suddenly finding the floor very interesting.
She giggled softly and made me look at her with her hands on my face.
"I growled at Charlotte because she called you honey remember? I think it's safe to say that even if we are not completely sure of what's happening, we will be growling a lot for a while." She stood on her toes and gave me a chaste kiss on the lips. "Besides I really like it." She winked at me and this time she took a step back slowly. I growled but I didn't reach out for her again.
"I guess you are right darlin' I will call them now."
I took my cell phone out and called Peter, it barely rang once before he picked up.
"I am disappointed Jasper, I assumed it had been a while but that was really fast." He chuckled. "Made me lose two thousand to Garrett little sister! All you had to do was beg a little."
I growled at the phone and swallowed some venom, Bella bit her lip a feeling embarrassed. I stroked her arm softly and sent a wave of calm to her.
"Just wait and see how fast I'll tear you into little pieces and bury them all across the State."
I said and made the four Vampires at the other end of the line laugh.
"We are on our way Jasper." He hesitated a moment. "It will make things easier for all of us if you sit down with my little sister on your lap." I moved to the bed and sat down at the edge of it, Bella quickly sat on my lap and wrapped my hands tightly around her, resting my head on her shoulder. We waited for everyone in silence, thought it didn't seem to bother her, I was just happy to feel her sitting on my lap for now.
There were so many things I wanted to tell her but we had forever to speak now.
A/N: Oh my God! She is finally up! And emo free recognition too! Not that they spoke much but really, who would want to speak when you have hot, sexy Jasper in the same room? *Swoon*
Don't worry though, for all of you who do like drama, it will poke it's ugly head a little soon enough.
Thanks again everyone for your awesome reviews. I couldn't be more happy with me. I wanted to add a little of Bella's PoV in this chapter too but it got so late already and I couldn't wait to update! You will have to wait but don't worry! In the next chapter I will write her first impression of things for a little and then continue with the story.
