None of these characters belong to me. Except for Matt. I'm just playing with them.

After three hours and a lots of 'When are we going to get there?" from Nessie, we finally arrived at Cloverfield Park.

Of course it was Alice's idea. A traditional, old fashioned Christmas.

Somehow, she convinced the whole family, plus the Denali Coven, to fly to England and drive to the countryside. I had to admit that I was impressed. Cloverfield was a huge Georgian Style Mansion, with an enormous front garden and a forest at the back. The good news was that there was plenty of wildlife around, so we could hunt. The bad news though, was that the hunting season was on, so we would have to be careful. We would probably have to hunt at night.

Edward pulled the car up to the front door and Alice was already standing there, with a huge, devious grin and a glint in her eyes.

"You're finally here!" she beamed, hugging both me and Nessie as though she hadn't seen us in years. Jasper and Emmett came to say hello and help Edward with the bags and Carmen and Esme came to the door to check on Renesmee and say "hi". The house was filled with music and golden lights were everywhere. People laughing. It was so different from her first Christmas, when everyone was still tense from the Volturi's visit. And the Denali sisters seemed to be moving on at last. They were laughing and enjoying the new atmosphere as much as we were.

Edward and I complimented Tanya, who was standing with a smug grin on her pretty face next to her new beau, Matt, he was a good looking guy or should I say vampire, with spiky dark brown hair and an easy smile. He had a bit of Californian accent and had been immortal for nearly 30 years. Garret seemed to be well adjusted to his new style of life and he and Kate were currently traveling around the world.

Nessie beamed when she saw Jacob standing near a window and threw herself on his back in a jump. At 3 years of age, she already looked like a 6 years old child, which at ne stage would have worried me, but since Alice had introduced Nahuel, I was feeling a lt better about it, although it was sad to see her grow up so fast.

"So? " asked Alice. "Come on, you know you want to say it..."

I rolled my eyes. "Alice, you're a genius."

"I know!" she said, clapping her tiny hands " And, I haven't even started yet..."

The day passed smoothly, with us chatting or playing games out in the snow.

But, as the evening drew nearer, there was an expectant, nervous feeling in the air; We all knew Alice was planning something, and it wasn't going to be good. So, at ten, we surrounded the huge Christmas tree in the living room and exchanged presents. I was thrilled with all of mine.

I tucked Renesmee in bed and went to change my clothes (Alice had ordered us all to…we would have special clothes for tonight). I got in to the bedroom I was sharing with Edward to find him in front of the full legnth mirror buttoning up a white shirt. I had a perfect view of his broad shoulders and smooth skin. His cooper head shone like fire under the golden light. He was mouth watering... I bit my lip and smiled.

"You look very handsome, Mr. Cullen. May I?" I purred and ran my fingers along his chest. He chuckled as I started unbuttoning the shirt and he locked his golden eyes on mine. His hands went to my sides and, in a blink; he crushed his lips to mine. The shirt flew to the floor. But I was aware of the noises around us, and so was Edward.

"We should stop… Alice is very close and she knows what we are up to." I groaned and went to check on the dress I knew she had picked for me.

It was long, icy blue satin evening dress. Edward and I dressed quickly, and when we were done, I saw that he was in a three piece tux; a bit old-fashioned…

I went to check my reflection; The dress had a high V neckline and floated, softly over my body, like a glossy lake. A thick stripe of fabric was wrapped around me, creating an empire waistline, and subtly adding a couple of inches to my height. The dress, I had to admit, was pretty discreet (for Alice) … Unless you counted the almost non-existent back. I wondered briefly what Alice had in mind that would involve costumes like these…

We heard a knock and Edward gave me a peck on the lips. "I'll see you downstairs." And opened the door to a super excited Alice, already armed with tools to style my hair.

"Thanks, Edward." She sang.

Alice herself was in a 1920's style dress; Blood red, with layers of stripes that moved around her tiny body. To complete the outfit, black gloves, a long chain of pearls and her hair pressed in tiny waves. She looked lovely. Actually, our clothes all seemed from that time. When she closed the sapphire clamps on a lock of my hair, I asked. "Alice, why are we dressed like we were part of an Agatha Christie movie?"

"You'll see. Now, let's go!"

Everyone was waiting for us and we seemed like we were in that movie – Gosford Park. I went to Edward's side and Alice stood by the staircase hopping up and down in excitement, "Okay, everyone. Now, the moment you're waiting for... We will be playing detective."

We all stared at her. I wasn't expecting this. She held her hand up and said. "We will have the lights off and we'll be blindfolded. Bella, I want you to shut off Edward's powers."

Edward opened his mouth to protest but Alice cut him off, "No cheating in my game. So, are you in or out?"

Everyone shrugged and said "Why not?". So, she passed by us with a big plate filled with tiny pieces of paper. I was kind of expecting to be the killer or at least, the detective, But I ended as "Victim". Ugh. We were blindfolded and the lights were off. A thrill of electricity passed though the rooms.

Since we couldn't see, the other instincts kicked in. I could identify most of the scents. I started walking to other rooms… it was easier if we dismissed the killer… it would make things a bit more difficult. I heard a scream and a laugh. I tried to walk as silently as I could and I felt the scent of books. So, I should be in the library. When I crossed the door, a hand covered my mouth. I almost yelled, but Edward's rich, unique scent invaded my senses.

"Be very quiet." He whispered on my ear. I nodded and he led me to what seemed to be the end of the room. He turned me and I felt my back pressed against a staircase.

"Edward?" I whispered and I felt his hands on my arms and neck. I felt his cold halite on my temple and I raise my lips in his direction. It was weird and erotic not to see. But I knew all of him and he knew my body very well. He turned his head and our lips collided eagerly. I grabbed his jacket and pulled him closer. Anyone could come in and this didn't bother me… it just made it more exciting. We had had public sex a few times at Dartmouth and I kind of liked it. By the pressure of the front of his pants on my stomach, I could see we would were going to be doing it again real soon...

His hands cupped my breasts and squeezed gently. I moaned on his mouth and he started kissing down my neck. I smiled, tangling my fingers in his soft hair. I traced his covered back with my hands and grabbed his firm, delicious ass. He growled into my shoulder and I nibbled his ear gently.

He turned to kiss me again and he pressed me to him tightly, if I was human it probably would have hurt, our tongues battled for dominance. I let him lick around my mouth, his sweet taste was intoxicating. My hands left his ass to work on his belt and in a second, my hands were inside his pants. He moaned my name. I was soaked and the pressure was getting too much.

He sucked my lower lip gently and his hands made quick work of my panties and raised the skirt of the dress up around my hips. I wrapped my legs around his waist and he entered me. It took everything I had not to scream in pure ecstasy. I grabbed the edge of the bookshelf as he thrusted again and again, like an oiled machine, his lips on my neck and then sucking my covered nipple. We heard screams and footsteps around the library and his moves fastened. I moaned silently at each one, my head turned to the unseen ceiling. He didn't stop until both of us trembled and he gave a last strong, powerful thrust pouring his hot seed into me.

He let me down and I unwrapped my legs from around him. He gave me a quick kiss as I stretched my dress. The panties were gone. I went out of the library, trying to locate myself and I felt tons of scents. Two of them – Eleazar and another one, Rosalie, were closer.

"Bella! How nice of you joining us again!" said Rosalie. I wanted to know if she was looking at me, but before I could move the scarf from my face, Alice said.

"No peeking."

"So, here we have the victims, the detective and the killer… " commented Carlisle "Any suggestions?"

Edward coughed somewhere near me, seeming a bit awkward.

"Well" he said "I know who the killer is" He seemed so confident. Was he the detective, then? I can't say that we were actively participating of the game, anyway.

"How the hell do you know?" asked Jacob, from the other side of the corridor "I didn't felt your scent for minutes! Were you even here?"

Emmett snorted. "Oh, yeah… he was just busy."

The others laughed and I would have blushed, if I was human.

"Is the shield on? " asked Kate "Bella?"

"Yes, of course it is." I said… but I had to check actually. It was more difficult because I couldn't see them all.

"Can we take these goddamn scarves off now? We are all here!" said Rosalie, impatiently.

We took the blindfolded and I could say we weren't the only ones a bit messed. Tanya and Matt had definitely been spending some time together somewhere in the house. I blinked once to adjust to the light.

"Well, Edward." Asked Emmett with a goofy grin. "What's the verdict?"

He looked at all of us and buried his hands on the pockets of his pants. "Elementary, my dear Watson." He said, with a very good British accent "The killer is---"
