Author's Note: I'm sorry it's taken so long for this to come out. I've had a crazy summer and only now getting a break. Anyways here's chapter two! Enjoy~

:Truth of Lies

Edward Cullen and Jacob Black

La Push.

Edward held Jake's hand tightly with one hand, the other was holding Conan, while Jake held Xander. They stood before Sam, who had an uneasy look on his face. Something was wrong, and Edward didn't need to read the wolf's thoughts to know that much. The worry and concern was laced across Sam's face, and Edward felt Carlisle place a hand on his shoulder. That simple action should have been comforting, but only made him worry more. It was a moment before Jake spoke up. "Sam, what is it? Has something happened?"

The alpha wolf nodded and with a sigh, shook his head. "We've been tracking several rogue vampires in the area, and they got wind of two 'unusual creatures'. We managed to catch one of them, but the vampire killed himself before we had a chance to learn what their plan was." Edward's eyes widened as he listened to Sam's words. Unusual creatures...? His twins? No it couldn't be them. It just couldn't be. But....everything pointed to them being the two creatures. "You have several options as far as I am concerned. Leave La Push and Forks till this gets settled. Stay, but with a guard. Or separate the twins."

"No!" Edward practically yelled, causing everyone to look at him. He wasn't separating his twins, there was no way in hell he would let them be separated. Not after everything they had been through. "They aren't being separated. I won't allow it," he said more firmly. Sometimes, his motherly instincts got the better of him. And this, was probably one of those times. "We'll stay." Not the best idea he had ever had, but what could he do? Leaving was even more risky than staying.

Sam nodded. "Then stay at your parent's house. The both of you. The pack will take shifts guarding the property." Sam waved his and signaling that the meeting was over.

Edward looked at Jake worriedly as they left to head back home. Sometime during the meeting Carlisle had left.

He hadn't told me that I couldn't call on him if I needed him...and right then, I sure as hell did. Someone was after my grandchildren, my half vampire grandchildren, but they were still mine all the same. It scared me to my core that someone could possibly want to harm them. They were just babies.

My fingers trembled as I dialed his number and held the phone to my ear. Would he answer? Would he even care? Of course he would, I mean...I hope he would...after everything that had happened two years ago it would come as a great surprise if he didn't care at all. "Aro." Oh god...the sound of his voice nearly made my legs shake.

"Aro...? It's Carlisle..." I said softly as I sat down on the nearest object, my desk. I could sense Esme outside the room, but knew she wouldn't come inside. She trusted my judgment, even if I was starting to lose faith in myself.

There was a long pause in which I thought he would just hang up, but then his reply came. "What's wrong? You sound upset. Is something the matter with the twins?"

I nodded, but it was only after I did so that I realized he couldn't see me nod. "Yes...someone is after them. Edward refuses to leave Forks, and refuses to separate them. They're staying with us and I...I called to ask..."

"For my help?"

"Yes..."

Again there was another long pause. Then, almost reluctantly he said, "I'll be there as soon as I can Carlisle." And he hung up. As much as his words should have calmed me, for some reason I felt even more upset and worried than before. Maybe it had been a bad choice to call him....
