Chapter 11

The room was silent, I knew that of all the announcements that had been made tonight this one was the most shocking.

"Excuse me! Did I hear that right, your son?" Emmett asked, the look of confusion on his face would have been funny any other day.

"Yes, mine and Jared's son. As you know Jared was born a vampire, well that makes him different from other vampires, it makes him capable of fathering children. I know my being a vampire should stop that from happening but somehow Ethan was conceived, we don't know how but we weren't going to question it. I gave birth to him just like any other woman does, although I was only pregnant for about 3 months, he is 101, like Jared he stopped ageing at 18."

"Why did he leave you 50 years ago? Why does he hate you so much?" Jasper asked, and the others nodded in agreement obviously keen to know the whole story.

I grabbed hold of Jared needing his support in recounting this story, we had dissected it many times trying to see if we could have done anything differently. The last 10 years we had tried moving on and some days we could most we couldn't.

"About 70 years ago Ethan and I were out hunting, it was something we always did together, mother son thing! And we came across a group of other vampires feeding in the forest. They were vegetarians although they lived the nomadic life, not wanting to take any chances by spending time with humans. We chatted to them for a while and then they decided it was time for them to leave, all but one that is. One decided to stay behind, they didn't like the nomad lifestyle that the coven lived and asked if they could join ours. We happily accepted and over time Ethan grew close to them. After 2 years they announced they were in love and asked mine and Jared's blessing which we happily gave, we had never seen Ethan so happy. I should mention at this point that the vampire's name was Shane, we didn't care that our son was gay, we were just happy that he had found someone who loved him and who he loved. Shane was a lovely person, he had a calming effect on Ethan who had always been a bit of a hot head, like Jared his power is linked to his emotions so having Shane around really helped him. Jared always joked that Shane was like me in so many ways and to others you would have probably thought Shane was my son!" I stopped to take a 'breather' the next part of the story was one I had tried hard not to think about for the last 10 years!

"One day 50 years ago Shane and Ethan were planning a romantic holiday to celebrate their anniversary in their bedroom and Jared had gone hunting with Russ. The others were out shopping leaving just me in the house with the two lovebirds! I left them to it, I knew from the noise or lack of coming from their room they didn't want to be disturbed so I put my iPod on and started rereading Wuthering Heights for about the hundredth time! That's when things started going wrong! I caught the scent of something that I didn't like, it wasn't a vampire I knew that but I couldn't tell what it was. The scent got stronger so I knew it was heading in our direction. I called to Shane and Ethan who appeared downstairs 2 minutes later, neither looking pleased I had disrupted them. I asked if they knew what the smell was and Shane recognised it as werewolf! We immediately shut up the house and prepared for battle, I called Jared and him and Russ were home within 20 minutes. About 10 minutes later the dogs turned up. We went outside to face them, there were 10 of them. Clearly outnumbered we knew this was going to be tough, they attacked and we managed to take out 6 of them with no problem. However 2 of them held back and didn't attack with the others, the remaining 2 ran off leaving the 5 of us against the two dogs. Unfortunately the fight had caused Jared's powers to activate, the rest of us backed off, not wanting to get too close as we knew it would mean certain death for us. Jared knowing it was his best option attacked the wolves using the flames as weapons against them. As he ran forward one of the werewolves transformed and I stood there in total shock. It was Jacob Black, he stared at me for a few minutes before he spoke. I should mention that after you guys left Jake tried to get me to go out and experience life again. It didn't work as you know but he kept coming back." Jared rubbed my arms and back, I had told him about Jake when we first met., he took over the story for me as I was finding it hard reliving the worst moment of my life.

"I knew who he was once he transformed, Iz had shown me pictures of Jake so I was surprised as she was. I stopped in my tracks as he spoke to Iz, he was disgusted that she had become a leech as he called us. I warned him not to speak to my wife like that and he made some comment about Iz having a taste for dead men. I tried to resist killing him there and then, the only reason I didn't was I knew how much Bella liked him. Ethan on the other hand couldn't control his anger, a characteristic he gets from me I am afraid. He started beating Jake up shouting at him to not speak about his mother like that. Iz held Shane back knowing Ethan can get unstable when his anger gets the better of him. However we all failed to notice the other wolf who was watching the scene unfold. I was attempting to stop the flames on my body with not much luck, Ethan ripped apart Jake and threw the pieces aside like it was dust on his hands. As he turned back to us the other wolf attacked, I managed to get over to Ethan just as the wolf went for him, the wolf caught on fire and backed off. Unfortunately just as that happened Shane got out of Iz's grip and ran for Ethan." Jared stopped, I knew the pain of the memory was too much for him, although Ethan blamed me, Jared blamed himself. "Sorry, I can't do this" Jared ran out the room and out the house before I had time to realise, leaving me alone with the Cullen's. I wasn't angry or hurt that Jared had run, he hated showing me how much pain that day had caused him.

"Shane ran straight into Jared not realising he was going to help Ethan, he caught alight and before all of our eyes he was gone" I looked out the window into the woods knowing somewhere out there Jared was probably trying not to fall apart. "Jared still blames his lack of control for what happened, Ethan blames me, if I had held onto Shane for a few more minutes he would have lived. Ethan became distant, he wouldn't speak to me, I tried everything but he could barely look at me. He spoke to Jared, he told him that he didn't blame him, he knows how much Jared hates his power but he couldn't forgive me. It didn't help that I knew Jacob, he added it onto his list of reasons why it's my fault". I looked around the room and the range of emotions on the Cullen's faces was varied. Esme's showed pain and understanding, I knew this came from her experience of losing a child. Carlisle just looked shocked, in all his years he had probably never come across a born vampire let alone two. Emmett and Jasper looked stunned so much so that Emmett kept opening his mouth to say something but nothing came out. Alice was hugging herself whilst Rosalie looked undecided about how she felt. Lastly I looked at Edward's face, although he did look upset at what had happened, he also looked smug, like I deserved this pain or at least Jared did. At first I was hurt that after everything he had put me through he was taking pleasure out of my pain and then I was hit was a sudden burst of pure anger. I growled at Edward and launched myself at him in an act of rage, unlike anything I had ever done before.
