Now there is one thing I do want to mention this is a romantic , but dark fiction so there will be some way OOC things done. Always expect the unexpected. I like it that way. :)
Previously…
I felt a cool hand on my arm and turned. Edward sat down, "I am sorry, I know you want to hold him."
"I do, but I don't want to hurt anyone." I closed my eyes arching in pain. I tried to control my breathing but I couldn't. He spoke again, "You are Tillie's blood, and you will be quite powerful it manifests itself already. I don't know what will happen, for now this is probably best."
"I understand." I groaned through clenched teeth. He sighed, "I truly am sorry." I felt his lips graze my head and he was gone. It was then Jasper started humming again it was such a sweet sound, so calming and pure. I tried to relax and lose myself in the sound that was for me alone.
I could hear them talking quietly. I am not sure how long I was out. I tended to drift in and out.
"You should go hunt." I heard Edward encourage him.
"I won't leave her, I promised. " He replied back. I had to love that about him, he was definitely a stand by his word kind of man. It was the oddest sensation but I could feel the hunger radiating from his skin. I moaned turning my head, "Hunt Jasper it's ok."
"Gabby I promised."
"I can feel it Jasper, you need to hunt. It's making it harder on me." I could feel a cool hand stroke my brow lightly. Edward spoke again, "Its fine. Someone will be with her at all times."
He kissed me then, "I won't be long my love."
"Jasper, take your time, I am fine really." I hope I held it together long enough for him to get far enough away from the house to know how bad I was.
"Tillie always did downplay her symptoms." I heard Carlisle's voice float next to me, a needle sneaking it's way into my arm. I shook my head. "I don't want him to see me in pain."
"I know but it doesn't make you weak to admit you are hurting." I heard him rustling and I opened my eyes to see him. My vision was changing, and I could feel it. He was getting clearer yet blurry at this point. There was a glow about him. I touched his arm and he raised his head to meet my eyes, I had kept them shut all day.
"Arelise." He whispered in awe reaching up to cup my chin and move my face back and forth inspecting my face. I felt Edward move closer, "What is it?"
"I am not quite sure."
Edward sat on my left as Carlisle dug through his bag.
"I'm going to shine this light into your eyes it may hurt."
I felt Edward grab my wrists just as a precaution I guess, it's not like I could get through the thick chains that surrounded me anyway. He clicked on the penlight and examined my eyes. It was bright but not bothersome it held an oddly light lavender appearance. One I could barely notice. Edward gasped leaning closer, "I've never seem anything like it."
"Me either, but then she isn't going to be a typical vampire." I listened to them talk then wiggled my hands a little. Edward smiled releasing my wrists and taking one hand in his.
"It would seem you don't share our eyes Arelise." Carlisle began.
"What do you mean?" I asked worried.
He sat his light down. "Well, our eyes are burgundy when we feed on humans which you know. If you are like us and feed on animals they tend to be brown to some degree, you on the other hand are nothing like I have ever seen. Not that I am surprised, Tillie would have never been normal either."
"What, did they stay green?"
"No, and you may have to tell people you wear contacts because they certainly won't pass for normal."
"Is that what you say?" I asked then. He smiled, "Sometimes."
"You never answered me." I said waiting on him. He was fixing to open his mouth when Jasper walked back in. He stopped at the door starring at me. His eyes were full of love and fascination. I bit my lip fighting a tremble as he moved closer, "Her eyes."
"Yes." Carlisle said softly. "I don't quite know what to make of it definitely not normal. She isn't exactly a normal human to begin with." I glanced at him briefly but never asked what I wanted to about that statement.
Edward released my hand moving and Jasper took his place leaning close and stroking my face, "They are beautiful Gabby. I don't think I've ever seen quite the color."
"What color are they?" I asked again. He turned to Carlisle, "You didn't tell her?"
"No."
He turned back to me with a handsome smile, "They are the oddest shade of lavender. I can't quite explain it they are almost iridescent like in appearance with many different shades of violet, absolutely stunning."
"Well, now that is different, will they change?"
Carlisle shrugged, "No idea, you are an exception. I have my doubts though. I think they will stay this color. Can you focus on things you have seen?"
"No not really, it hurts too much."
"When you are feeling better we'll work on that. If you can see through others eyes or just out of your body you may be able to tell us a lot more. If you are always seeing from your perspective your view can be limited."
"She told me that." I said knowing we were both speaking of Tillie. He nodded. "Me too." He then stood and nodded to Edward and they both left. I knew we were alone and groaned grabbing my stomach, I don't know what the pain was to explain it but it was excruciating. I couldn't ball up because of the chains and it irritated me to some extent even if I knew it was for everyone's safety, though I doubted I would hurt any of them.
I felt Jasper leaned over me, his cool hands on my face soothing me. "Lean back sweetheart, let me help you."
"It hurts."
"I know love, it's still early. You aren't transformed fully yet, but I can feel your pain and I know the feeling well. Alice warned me this was coming everything about you is so unique."
"Just say it!" I snapped not meaning to but the pain was too much. His eyes still looked at me lovingly as he kissed my tenderly, "Bite me love."
"What? Are you insane?"
"You need to feed, you aren't strong enough to kill and you can't be trusted to leave yet. It is the easiest way and there is an advantage, it is from me making our bond stronger. It will only be this once. It is not something we normally do, please love."
"I can't do that to you." I argued as I doubled over in pain again. He straddled me holding my wrists down, "I love you. You are my life, the other piece of my soul. We will make this world right again."
His warm, soft lips fell to mine and I could still taste the metallic flavor of blood. I felt myself being drawn deeper into his kiss and I didn't care, I loved him. I trusted him, I trusted this family for some reason I did not know. This decision was made long before I came into being. I could almost hear my great grandmother Tillie telling me it was ok take what he offered.
His lips fell to my neck and I moaned arching as the pain hit again, I felt them stop at my ear. Take what you need my love, I am yours." The words sounded so familiar.
"Jasper, I can't." I pleaded.
He knew I would fight this, it just felt wrong. It was then I felt his lips break the skin of my neck and gasped, I felt my heart race as my adrenaline kicked in. I began to push on his body trying to move him off of me. I can't explain all of what I felt and then he looked into my eyes and I understood he was pushing me.
He kissed me once then turned his neck forcing my head to it. I tried to fight but his pull was too strong. My lips were suddenly on his jugular and my teeth quickly found their target.
Having just fed he had a rapid blood flow which was not the norm for any vampire. I felt him tensing and gripping the bed beneath me but he did not pull away. When I felt like it was enough I pulled my self away fighting the urge to feed again.
His beautiful face turned to meet my eyes. I noticed his eyes were now dark, "Are you sated?" He asked stroking my face." I nodded uncertain. I don't know what sated is for a vampire but if he meant I felt calmer than yes. He smiled curling around me, "Good, that should help with the pain for a while. You will be fully changed soon, it will be easier then."
"I won't have to feed from you?" I groaned in pain but not from hunger. He brushed my hair back attempting to sooth the burn, "No love, you'll be able to feed on your own. Like Carlisle told you this is a special case. Tillie made you very special."
"She loved me." I said knowingly as I began to shake and tremble. He kissed my neck, "Yes she did. I wish I had known her but I didn't. Would you like to speak with Carlisle some more?"
"I don't want to make you or Esme uncomfortable." I felt his hands rub down my shaky arm, "You won't love. We understand. I'll get him."
It wasn't long before I felt a cold hand on my arm and opened my eyes to his handsome face. He looked worried, "You are hurting, it seems I will need to increase your dosage."
I felt another stick and moaned fighting the trembling inside, not to mention the burn that threatened to take over my very soul. I felt if I kept trying to distract myself when I could it would help. There were times when the pain was just too intense. This was one of those times. I cried out tossing my head back and forth feeling his cool hand sooth my cheek.
I was having a memory, a memory of my mother I was just a babe in her arms and she was rocking me gently. "What will I tell her?" She asked. It was then I saw Tillie come into view, "You won't tell her anything child, she will know when it is her time." My mother shook her head, "I was foolish, it was a one night stand with some young man who I met at your house and happen to say the right thing."
Tillie smiled, "No, you were never foolish, everything is as it should be. Trust in faith my dear. It will never lead you astray." I watched as Tillie stroked my cheek tenderly and walked out.
I groaned opening my eyes, things were becoming clearer. I reached over and sat my hand on his leg, "She misses you." I said suddenly. I don't know how I knew, but I did.
He smiled resting his hand on mine. "I know, I miss her too she knows I'll always care for her. She's always in my heart. Me and my family will protect you little one."
"This is like a bad D movie." I said with a laugh, "I mean a great grandmother who was into well…lets say odd things to say the least, vampires among other creatures, and me being chained to a bed turned and gaining all of my grandmothers powers. Sounds like a horror movie huh?"
He laughed, "Could be, except it isn't. Your grandmother was not evil. We are not either. It is who you choose to be anyone can choose to be anything they want to. Your decisions make you who you are."
"I am nothing like any one else in my family." I said with confidence.
He smiled, "No you are unique. His hand caressed my cheek, "You are beautiful Arelise." I watched him curious, my mom told me the truth once she couldn't live with the guilt."
He looked at me with the oddest expression. "What truth?"
"She and my father were separated; she met a man at my grans. He was a handsome man that swept her off of her feet and nine months later I was born. She never told my father they got back together soon after. Tillie she always knew. She made sure it happened that way didn't she?"
He looked at me and smiled then looked off, "I don't know what you are talking about you are delirious and tired."
"Tell me the truth Carlisle; are you who I think you are? I feel the bond. I need to know, it's why I have never fit in, and it's why she gave me the necklace of your coven. It's why you came back. I deserve to know the truth."
"Arelise."
"My skin is so flawless, it always has been."
"You look like your grandmother." He stated simply. I nodded, "She was hardly flawless. I've always ran a few degree's cooler than most people and have been abnormally graceful. It all makes sense now. When I look at you and I think of how I look in the mirror I also favor you."
"Please." He pleaded standing and turning away.
I sat up not even noticing the loud noise when the large chains broke and hit the hard wooden floor. "I need to know were I belong, you know the answer and you always have tell me!" I yelled. I realized all the feelings I thought he had felt of confusion were not confusion of passion, yes he loved my grans, but his feelings towards me were maternal.
The door flew open with Emmett, Jasper, and Edward at my side instantly. Emmett lifted the chain raising an eyebrow, "I'm impressed." He reached for me and I growled. Jasper touched his chest and sat beside me, "Baby what is it?"
"Tell me you owe me! For so long I live in this shadow of lies feeling like I didn't fit in and wondering why. I listened to lies about my beloved Tillie because I didn't know what else to do and I got tired of being called a freak for defending her. I am your creation!"
I saw the rest of the family come in and wait by the door but I ignored them. "She raised me with love and I knew I was her favorite, but I never knew why. She always told me I reminded her of someone, that I was special. Was that someone I reminded her of you? Is that why this always felt so comfortable for me?"
Carlisle sighed leaning on the wall looking beaten. "She saw the future she knew you would be needed and loved. I couldn't deny her anything."
"Answer my question!" I yelled. Jasper touched my arm and I slapped his hand away standing. "There is a reason I am different and you knew it all along, how many of you knew it?" I began to tremble in pain and Carlisle grabbed me lifting me back onto the bed.
"You need to relax, this is almost over sweetheart." He whispered kissing my head. I grabbed his face, "Who am I?" He looked me in the eye a moment then ran his fingers carefully down my cheek, "You are my flesh, my blood, my daughter." I heard the collective gasps but they didn't register as the pain began again and I cried out curling into a ball.
Jasper's strong arms were around me. "I am here love, its ok."
"I've got stronger chains down stairs," Emmett began. Carlisle stood, "No, she has been through enough. Leave her with Jasper." He walked up to Esme who smiled and took his hand leading him out.
"How much longer?" I gasped my chest heaving. Jasper was holding me against him, "Not long love minutes." I curled my face into his neck, "I love you." I had so many questions but now was not the time to worry with asking them, I couldn't even focus.
"I love you too baby."
"Tonight I'll be one of you." I said in broken words.
He kissed my head reassuringly, "You always were my sweet." I arched feeling him attempt to hold me down as my heart beat its final time and suddenly I fell limp. I could hear him breathing softly on my shoulder. I could see each and every shadow that streamed across the room with every speck of dust.
I turned to see his face. He was so much more beautiful with these eyes, so much clearer. I could see his flaws, so perfect. Each little crescent mark telling me how strong my man was. I reached up tracing his full lips as if I were seeing them for the first time. "You are beautiful."
He smiled, "You haven't seen yourself yet love."
I sat up realizing how quick the action had been, I would have to get used to this moving quicker and straddled him ripping his shirt open. I wanted to see all of him, each and every scar. He groaned closing his eyes as my fingers caressed them.
"They are so perfect, you are so strong Jasper. I never realized how strong you were."
"Nor how dangerous." He added.
I smiled leaning down, "Really, care to show me? I think I am a little harder to break now no?" He flashed me a wicked grin and rolled me over. "The family went out for a while they wanted to give us time. Alice saw a few things." I figured because he fed me I wasn't hungry and that gave us a little needed intimate time.
"Really? I love Alice." I added.
He grabbed my hair forcing me up to him, "You want me to show you what it's really like to let loose with a vampire?"
"God yes." I was already breathing heavy. He chuckled ripping my shirt from my body, "Oh darlin' you are in for it now and I promise you that you will enjoy every single minute."
"I can't wait."
Sorry I had to re-edit. I had many mistakes and I am sorry. I was tired and thought I reread properly.
