"Im sure you remember Victoria, James and Laurent," Edward said practically answering it for me.
He was right though, how could I forget James who was scarred on my skin for eternity no matter what happened or how long I 'lived?', or Laurent who tried to kill me when I was in the meadow alone and heart-broken or Victoria who wanted revenge on me so bad she lied to young Riley that she loved him. The memory of them was burned inside of me forever and it wasn't something I wanted to discuss or as matter of fact be reminded off.
"It seems that after we had killed James," the sudden memory of that moment when the Cullens burnt James to pieces made me shudder. Although venom was spreading around my body when it happened I still saw it.
"Victoria and Laurent went to James brother, Ryan who is also one of us and told him the news. Ryan is also in love with Victoria's cousin Emma who we have just found out was made immortal after James' death. It made Ryan eager for revenge and so Victoria, Laurent, Ryan and Emma made a promise that they would kill us for what we had did, though Victoria and Laurent calmed the situation down and asked for some time to play with our minds. Ryan and Emma agreed but under the circumstance that they would need to be kept updated. Victoria and Laurent easily accepted and thought this was a fantastic deal. However, when the wolves had finished off Laurent, Victoria knew she was on her own. It was then she decided to form her 'coven' so she had a better chance. Though we thought this was all she planned, it seems she was one step ahead and had in fact went to her brother, Jason and Laurent's nephew, Karl and told them everything. She told them that if she had lost the battle to kill us for them to finish what she had started. Jason and Karl strongly agreed and so she called a meeting involving Jason, Ryan, Emma and Karl and told them that if what she had planned did not work then it was down to them. Her plan obviously didn't work so now they are out to finish what she had started."
I was so involved in the story that I hadn't realized that Edward has stopped talking.
"Um...," I gulped trying to take everything into account what Edward had just told me.
"Then, why did Jake come in and take Renesmee so frantically and start looking at her like...like it was the last time he ever would?, and then why was he looking at you as if he hated you?" I struggled trying to get the words to out right.
I realized Edward moved closer beside me and braced my face in his hands.
"Bella, they think that because they are after us and the wolves that they have an easy target because she is part of each and every one of us and he wasn't looking at me with hatred, he was looking at me, though telling me what they planned on doing and that's why he went and got Renesmee right away." Edward glared at me whilst saying this knowing I knew who he was referring to Renesmee.
"No...No, No, No, No," I jumped up angrily shouting. "Renesmee is not a part of any of this. She was not even born when any of this happened and I am not letting her life be put at risk because of something that happened in my past" I was still shouting though I knew I shouldn't be shouting at him.
"Bella, I promise you that no harm will come to you or Renesmee if I have anything to do with it," Edward explained softly and I knew he was telling the truth because I saw the sincereness in his eyes and when he looked into my eyes the way he did he always meant it. This calmed me down a little though I was still murmuring "No, No, No, No" as he spoke.
He held me to his chest tightly and kept kissing me on the forehead.
"Edward," I said looking up at his perfect complexion "When are they planning on attacking?" I asked. Edward sighed heavily.
"They were supposed to attack about an hour ago, that is how the pack knew what was happening and what they were planning, however something changed their minds and now no one is sure what they are planning, not even Alice" explained Edward unsure as to why this was. "Alice nor I know why she was not warned of this and only saw it when they were supposed to attack."
Alice, Jake and a now woken Renesmee returned to the living room. Renesmee was playing with Jacob's long hair.
"Are we really in any danger?....I mean there is only four of them and alot of us" I asked them all not wanting to count how many of us exactly that there were.
Jake, Edward and Alice looked at each other with defeat on their faces.
"What?" I asked again unable to understand what conclusion they had came to.
"Bella, they are far more powerful than Victoria, James and Laurent ever were. Over the years they have gotten stronger, far more stronger than I would've thought possible for them. They are so powerful that the Volturi want them more than they want Edward and I or anyone for that matter" Alice explained to me with certainty on her face.
Edward came over to my side and wrapped his arms around my waist aware of the terror I now felt for my family and my friends. I stared over at my beautiful baby girl, Renesmee who was now crying in Jacob's arms at the silence the room contained. She was holding her arms out for me and as I went and took her in my arms I realized that my daughter's life was at risk and that it was all my fault.
"Bella, none of this is your fault," emancipated Alice who obviously saw the expression on my face.
"Alice is right Bella you cannot blame this on yourself, It was not you who put yourself in such a dangerous position in the first place" injected Edward talking about the baseball game where I first met James, Victoria and Laurent.
"And you cannot blame this on you. It was not your blood he wanted so desperately." I protested.
"STOP" Jacob interrupted, "Is this not supposed to be about what's happening now and keeping us ALL safe," he pointed out staring at Renesmee who was now playing with my locks of hair.
