Chapter 12

He gently kisses my necks, and my stomach lurches in revolt. "You know my dear, you can't keep it a secret." He says as lightly pats my stomach. My eyes widen with fear as I try to figure out what to do. Jasmine is downstairs, to far away to help me. I stumble backwards landing on the bed, my body trembling with fear. Joham walks slowly towards me, his black eyes blazing with anger. Downstairs the door slams, echoing loudly through the house. For a moment Joham stops and listens, and then continues stalking toward me. "You know Renesmee, this wasn't part of our agreement. I never said anything about puppies." "Neither was murdering my family and true love." I spit at him, enraging him even more.

"Um dad, we have visitors!" Yells from downstairs, sounding kind of shock and frightened. He stops right in front of me and looks away for a moment. "Tell them to come back later." He says, and then returns his attention back to me. "Dad!" She yells again this time pain is added into the mixture of emotions. "Dammit." He mumbles to himself as he rushes to the door. "Don't go anywhere." He commands for disappears out the door and heads downstairs. Finally I can breathe. At least for now Baby Jacob, is safe. I sneak out of the room and head back to my old room. The room with the constant reminders of what I have lost. Rummaging through the drawers I look for anything other than this cursed wedding dress to wear. I am in luck I find a pair of flared-leg grey sweat pants and an oversize grey sweatshirt. Quickly stripping, I change clothes and head back to the master bedroom; hoping that he hasn't returned yet I don't need to enrage him anymore.

"Where is she?!" I hear someone scream. Their voice is so familiar. My heart begins to race as I run out the door. "Where is she?!" He yells again. I reach the stairs and within seconds I am standing in a very crowded living room. An average height brunette has Jasmine, pinned in the corner. i stare at her, her eyes pleading for my help. Across the room two large pale men hold Joham firmly against the wall, as another tall russet colored man draws his arm back readying himself for a punch. In the middle of the room stands 4 other people two male, two female. The two males are considerable smaller than the rest, and the females are quite small theirselves. I stare blankly unable to think, unable to comprehend the sight before my eyes. I turn my attention back to Jasmine, her eyes filled with so much terror as the slender brunette lowers her head and is ready to take a bite out of her. "Let her go!" I scream. Everyone turns their attention to me.

Unable to take it all in, my body goes weak and I nearly collapse on the floor. Fortunately for me there was someone there to catch me. Looking into his warm caramel eyes, a smile crosses my lips. "Daddy." I squeal. "Yeah sweetie, we're all here." He says as clutches me tightly to his body. "I thought y'all were dead." I begin to sob. "Sweetie, Nahuel could never kill another creature." My mother says as she walks up to me and tries to pry me away from dad. I know deep down in he had a good heart. Emmett and Nahuel still have Joham pinned against the wall, waiting for someone to give them to cue to destroy him. "Can we please go home?" I whine. "Anything you want, angel" My dad says as he slowly raises his hand to signal for destruction for Joham to begin. "Before we go there is something I have to do." Setting me down on my feet, I walk across the room where they stand with Joham. Then with all the strength I can mustard, I place my hands on either side of his head and then with a quick jerk, I pull it off. "That is for all the hell you have put everyone through." I yell. "Let's go Ness." The voice I have missed so much says as he grabs my hand setting my skin ablaze. A feeling that I have long for. "Emmett, Jasper, and Nahuel have got it from here." He says as he leads me from the house.

"Wait." I say turning back to the house. I take off the last thing that binds me to him. The solid gold band that place shackles on me. "There we can go." I say as I turn back to Jake and wrap my small around his waist and reach up and kiss him so passionately. The feeling is there. The electrifying, earth shattering, weak in the knees feeling. We go climb in the cars and go back home.

Home a place I have long for. The comfort of being around the people I love. Something I will never take for granite again. Exhausted from the all the events that had came into my life, I make my way upstairs. My family and Jake closed behind me. This was like some grim fairy tale with a happily ever after. Lying down on my own bed, I fall asleep immediately as my head hit the pillow. The next morning I wake to the constant fog that blankets the small town. Another small thing I have missed. Turning away from the window, I meet Jake's gaze. His warm brown eyes, his perfect smile, are like something plucked out of my dreams. He leans forward to kiss me and leave it to morning sickness to ruin a perfect moment. Jumping from my bed I rush to the bathroom. Before, I have a chance to close the door Jake is right behind me. With him holding my hair, I empty my stomach contents. "Nessie, whats wrong?" "Oh...ummm...'' I search my mind to find a way of saying it. "Jake, I"m pregnant.'' "What!" He screams. "How could you touch that vile thing?!" He continues. "Jake, I..." I begin to say, but he wasn't going to listen to me. He rushes out of the house.

With his hasty exit my family rushes upstairs to find me sitting in the bathroom crying. "Baby girl, what's the matter?" My mom ask. Unable to choke out the words, I show her that I am pregnant with Jake's baby and the events that took place this morning. "Oh."Both my mom and dad gasp at the same time. At least I didn't have to repeat it a second time. There are benefits to my dad being a mind reader. "I'll go find the mutt and clear this whole thing up." My dad says as he goes to chase after Jake. Helping me back to my bed, they send for Carlisle. It looks like my ultimate dream will come true after all. Everything in the universe is right again.
