I know...it's been a long ass time! First, let me apologize for my absence for so long! The plot bunnies have been killing me with more ideas...just not for any of my stories! Second, I am in the process of moving and have been since September. Military housing is small...but hard to work around when you're trying to clean, all your furniture is on top of each other, and you have arthritis in your back and hips which prevents you from working around such obstacles. So, yeah...it's been rough! Now, this story is winding down rather quickly, so I'm gonna try to finish this story up within the next few days so I can focus on the next story (he he he...you're gonna love it), get what I can written, and move from Silverdale, WA to Fort Worth, TX! Once we get settled...after the kids get out of school for the year (and move into our house that we will be buying), I'll start posting the new stories I'll be writing! I already have 2 in the works!

Now, I want to give a shout out to my darling Vicky who has been checking up on me every now and then to make sure I'm alive! Luv u bunches hon! AND a shout out to miZpamier who has many ideas for stories...but can't get them written up! I'll be using some of her ideas for a new story that will be called CURSED: The Black Swan...Be on the lookout! You are all gonna love this story! It has a bad ass Bella, a very cocky Edward, a very dark and abusive Jake, with our very lovably clueless Em...who's not as clueless as we all thought! That's all the teaser I'm gonna give ya. I will also have a Beauty and the Beast type story coming out as well. I know, everyone has been focusing on the awesome Disney tale...but between you and me...have you ever read one where Edward is the Beauty? Ok, that's it for clues to get you all excited and intrigued at what's to come next! Now, shall we pick up where out lovely threesome left off? ;)

Disclaimer: Yep...my life still sux cuz Twilight is still NOT mine :( Oh well, at least I get to play with the characters ;)

I have no fucking idea how she did it, but fuck me was it hot! After she landed on the bed, she managed to throw Em against the wall while she landed on his dick doggy style with her feet planted against the wall, while pulling me with her and swallowing my dick whole as we landed against Em.

Now, just to make it clear, I would never disrespect any woman if I can help it, but as soon as we landed, I was so turned on I just couldn't help myself. My queen unleashed the beast within me and I couldn't refrain from fucking her mouth in earnest. Thank god she didn't seem to mind. Maybe because my thrusts were so harsh, they causing her to rock back into Em. It was like we were playing ping pong, only Bella was the ball. I would thrust into her mouth, then Em would thrust into her causing us to go back and forth.

I was at my wits end, growling and snarling as my orgasm prepared to buckle my knees. Em was in no better shape than I was which only caused Bella's moans and groans to increase until she fell over the edge. Em and I were so close, but couldn't seem to get past the cliff's edge until Bella softened her screams into a light purr which finally had me roaring like the lion I've been known to be. Em roared out like the bear he can be as he fell just after I did.

Once we came down from our high, we collapsed to the floor in a panting heap of limbs causing the entire house to shake. We managed a single look into each other's eyes before we fell into a fit of laughter.

"You know, if you keep that shit up, mom's gonna have your asses for fucking up her home!" Jazz stated from the bottom floor.

"To hell with that, Jazz, I wanna try what Bella just did." Alice replied without batting an eyelash.

"I must agree with you there dear, that does look like a fuck load of fun!" Esme added with a giggle.

"Esme, did you just drop the "F" bomb?" Carlisle barely managed to get out before he picked Esme up and ran to their room shutting and locking the door behind them.

"Dude, do you realize what we just started?" Em asked.

"Fuck that, do you know what we should do?" I replied.

"A Vampire Guide to Kama Sutra? Damn, I kinda like that idea! Who's gonna be the photographer?" Bella piped in causing us to growl in response to that comment.

"You must think we're insane if you think we are gonna let someone come in her and take naked pictures of you while we fuck! You're out of your damn mind!" I stated.

"Not to mention making millions of copies so the rest of our kind can see what's ours? You got me fucked up!" Em added.

"Good point...I could always draw up the positions so they can get the general idea." she stated as she pondered over the many positions she has yet to try.

"Ok, who's next up on watch? It should be about that time right?" I asked.

"Yes, it is. It's time to send Marcus back to Volterra to await our arrival. It will give him a couple days head start that way no one will suspect a thing when we hit them the next day after he returns. As for who's next on the watch, who wants to go next?" she asked.

"I'll go next." Em stated. "I'm looking forward to trying out some of these gifts. Maybe I can find the rat in our pack and send him off to sleep with the fishes." he added.

"You do realize that that's not possible." I stated.

"Well, duh! I just meant that when I find the rat, I'll make them an offer they can't refuse!" he chuckled as he winked at us. Not to self, hide all mafia based movies for a while.

"Aw, you wouldn't hide my mob movies from me would ya?" Em whined adding a pout for extra effect.

"Nah, just wait till we get to Italy for all the mob talk...please?" I asked adding a pout as well as the huge innocent Puss In Boots eyes. Damn that cat, gets me every time.

"I suppose. BUT, we will come back to this and see about adding it to our family discussions when something is amiss! Nomads won't have a clue what we're talking about if we can get the code down." he added. As much as I hate to say it, he's right on that one. Damn, when did he get so smart.

"We'll see what we can do! Now, let's get Marcus on his way before they start to suspect something." Bella stated as she went to the closet to get dressed.

~*AtWFD*~

"I will NOT leave Di behind!" Marcus was pissed off when he found out it was time for him to go back and play his part. He did not want to leave his mate behind.

"If you take her with you now, you risk losing her again after just finding her. Do you want to be alone once again? Who knows how long it will be this time. Marcus, think about this rationally." Bella pleaded.

"I am. She will never be as safe as she is in my arms, under my watchful eye." Marcus was starting to wear down.

"I promise you, she will be well protected here with us. We need you to go back and we will only be 2 days behind you. We will be there before we originally planned since the packages will arrive a week earlier than we expected. The sooner you get back there and play your soulless part, two days later, you will be free to do what you want as long as you adhere to my laws. You and Di can live a life on that deserted island you bought for her after her demise. I've already stocked it with carnivores for you. That's as close to human blood as you can get from now on. You can have the peaceful life you always wanted for her without any interruptions...unless you are absolutely needed. This is, was, and always will be my promise to you. Take it or leave it." Bella ended finally putting her foot down.

Marcus' shoulders slumped in defeat knowing he would do as she asked to prevent losing Di ever again. "Ok, I will do as you say, but if anything happens to her, it's your head." he stated.

The entire race growled at his threat. Hell, even the wolves started snarling at him.

"I'm sorry my queen. Forgive me for threatening you." he stated while dropping to his knees and bowing his head.

"Never make such threats again, for it may be your last. I understand why you're so protective of her, but you must trust me 100% that she will be safe. Never doubt my word." Marcus stared into Bella's eyes seeing the complete honesty in them and nodded his head.

"May I leave after dark?" Marcus asked. "I would like some time alone with Di before I have to get back to hell." he added with a chuckle.

"Absolutely. I wouldn't have it any other way." she replied with a smile so bright it lit up the entire yard.

As Marcus and Di headed into the forest, Bella turned to the wolves. "Please keep an eye on them. I don't want to take any chances with a rat within our ranks. I'm not too sure who it is, but when I find out, they will be a pile of ash before they can blink."

They nodded their heads and headed in after them making sure they kept their distance so the happy couple wasn't informed of their followers.

~*AtWFD*~

As daylight turned into twilight, we were all gathered onto the lawn getting ready to say our goodbyes to Marcus, Felix, and Demetri. Di was having a fit, breaking down into tearless sobs while maintaining a death grip on her beloved.

"They must go for now Di. Marcus will be safe. Felix and Demetri will watch over him and protect him with their lives." Bella reassured her.

Di nodded and finally released her death grip on Marcus after planting a final searing kiss to his lips. "I'll see you soon darling. Then when it's all over with, we can FINALLY live the lives we have wanted for so long." Marcus stated while gazing deep into his lover's eyes.

With a final chaste kiss, he slowly walked to the edge of the forest that began in our back yard. I looked over to Demetri and Felix. "Keep a close eye on him. Something doesn't feel right. Someone is gonna betray us, I'm just not sure who or when." I stated in my mind. They both gave a slight nod to me and headed into the forest, Marcus following right behind them.

As Esme led Di into the house to comfort her, the rest of the family came over to where Bella, Em and I were standing.

"Something feels off." Jazz stated.

"We agree, someone is gonna betray us, we just don't know who or when." Em added.

"We've asked my brothers to keep an eye on Marcus. They'll let us know if anything with him is amiss." Bella replied.

"I feel like it won't really hurt us in battle, but it will definitely cause some damage. Someone amongst us will die for it." Alice added trying to flip through her visions to see if she could catch a glimpse of who might be having doubts.

"Someone is coming. Whoever it is, we must keep our gifts to ourselves. I don't care who it is, we must keep them discreet." Bella stated as she stepped in front of both Em and I, which told us that whoever it is coming our way is indeed a female.

As we all waited for this person to break through the trees, familiar thoughts rushed through my head.

"Oh shit...it's Rose!" Em exclaimed. "Shit, I always thought she was my mate, what the hell am I gonna tell her now?" Em groaned.

"WHAT?" Bella asked in a deadly hiss.

"Rose, or so we thought, is supposed to be Em's mate. The never slept together, but everything else was as if they were true mates. Then one day, she upped and left about 10 years ago, never to be heard from again...until now." I stated while trying to fill Bella in on our long lost family member.

"Do NOT tell her anything about our gifts. She has a gift that ensures she gets whatever she wants. She's a brain-washer and can't be trusted. She's duped you all. Be on your guard around her. Act as if nothing has changed but me coming into your lives. I'm sure she already knows who I am, so we need to be extremely careful. Keep your shields up around her so her gift is useless on you...just act as if it still works and keep your minds open so we can all see what she does." Bella ordered, not wanting to take any chances at all.

Just as we were all gathering around the camp fire, Rose came strutting through the forest and into the back yard. As soon as her sights set on Em, a wide smile came across her face as she ran toward him only to be stopped as soon as I pushed him and Edward behind me and crouched down ready to spring into action.

"Who the fuck are you and why the fuck are you protecting my mate?" Barbie asked.

"MINE!" Bella snarled out and she slowly turned and crawled up our bodies, locking a leg around one of our hips, staying in a partial crouch.

"No Bitch...MINE!" Rose snarled and crouched down getting ready to pounce until Carlisle and Jazz stepped in front of her, causing her to cock her head to the side.

"Rose, do you not realize who you just threatened?" Carlisle asked. "This is Bella, Queen of the Golden Eyes. Edward and Emmett are her true mates." he added.

Rose's eyes grew to the size of saucers. "You mean the stories are real? There really was a queen before the Volturi? They actually managed to overthrow her?" Rose asked while getting out of her crouch.

"Yes my dear. The stories are real. She has come back to us to regain control of the vampire population. To bring peace to our kind and rule us properly." Carlisle stated while slowly and cautiously walking toward her.

"So, Em's not my real mate?" she asked, grief melded within her voice.

"I'm so sorry Rosie. I really thought we were destined to be together for all eternity. Then you just up and disappeared, breaking my heart into a million pieces, only to come back into my life once I've found my t rue mates." Em tried to explain.

"So, what you're telling me is that you are mated not only with her...but with Edward as well?" she asked raising an appraising eyebrow.

"Yes. Believe me, it was weird when it first happened and we were both freaking out, but now, we completely understand all the beauty behind our bond." Em explained with a blissful smile stretched across his face.

"Wow, I don't think I've ever seen you so...content before." she stated while changing the subject. "So, since the queen and kings are finally together, what happens next?" she asked flipping her golden locks over her shoulder while inspecting her nails trying to act nonchalant.

"You already know what comes next." Jazz answered leveling her with a serious gaze. "WAR!" he yelled as he fist pumped the air with a demented smile overtaking his features.

"So, you are either with us or against us. Which is it gonna be Rose?" Esme asked while stepping out of the back door, Alice hot on her heels.

"What choice do I have? You are my family, so I will fight with you." she stated as she gave Esme and Alice a loving hug. "So, what have I missed strategy wise?" Rose asked with an evil glint in her eyes.

Yep, there is definitely something not right with Rose. Now that I think about it, I don't think there ever was anything right with her to begin with. Either way, something fishy is definitely going on here!

~*AtWFD*~

Once we filled Rose in on all the basic information, it was time for Em to leave us. I was just about to switch watches with him when he informed us that our bond was so strong, we had nothing to worry about. So Bella and I headed upstairs for some alone time. Nothing was discussed openly when it came to our plan of attack. It was all done mentally so Rose was left out of the loop. Even the other vamps agreed that something wasn't right about Rose. All of us were walking on egg shells around her to keep out of the know.

As I slowly guided Bella into our room, I made sure to lock the door behind us. We know, it doesn't really keep others out, but it does give us that sense of privacy we yearn for. Don't judge!

Before Bella could blink, I had us stripped naked, lifting her up against the wall and plunging my think throbbing cock into her sweltering heat with a feral growl.

Bella gasped, completely unprepared for my assault on her body, but managed to follow my lead by wrapping her legs around my waist and grabbing two fists full of my hair as she attacked me with a deep sensual kiss.

Slowly, I pulled out of her only to plunge back into her with so much force, the wall cracked beneath her sinful form. Just as I was about to repeat the action, our door was broke down. Thinking it was Em, not being able to handle what we were doing and couldn't help but join us, we continued with our ministrations not paying close attention to who was in our room.

Our feral moans and groans drowned out all other sounds in our room; our complete focus was on each other and no one else as we delved deeper into the passion that was happening between us.

The house was shaking as if an earthquake was going on, our peak was reaching the heavens, we were just about to fall over the edge when I felt a delicate hand on my shoulder causing both Bella and I to fall into protective crouches before the intruder.

As snarls and growls constantly poured out of our chests, venom dripping out of our mouths, Rose stepped into our line of sight...stark naked, eyes dark with lust and want, focusing in on both Bella and I as if we were her prey.

"Do you mind if I join you?" she asked with an air of innocence

Bella, and I looked at each other as we felt a prickling in our minds. Rose must be trying to use her gift on us to get what she wants. Before we could even consider verbally acknowledging her request, Em came running into our room, snatching up Rose and literally throwing her out of our window while bellowing out "MINE" in the most deadly voice I ever heard from him.

Just as Bella and I shivered from the possessive tone in his voice, Rose started cackling maniacally.

"RUN RUN FAST AS YOU CAN! YOU CAN'T CATCH ME I'M THE GINGERBREAD MAN!" bellowed out of Rose's mouth as she turned and ran into the forest.

"I want the wolves to stay hidden completely until we figure out what we are running to. Everyone, get dressed and get ready. I have a bad feeling about this." Bella projected to everyone as we both threw on some clothes and ran out the door, our family and allies right on our tail.

~*AtWFD*~

The further we ran, the more I recognized where we were headed. Rose was leading us to the open field where we used to play baseball during thunderstorms. The bad feeling we all had was getting worse the closer we got to the field.

When we finally arrived, Rose was standing in the center of it, stark naked, with a malicious grin across her face. As we all came to a stop, telling the wolves to surround the area, Rose cackled and let our a sharp whistle.

While we all looked at her like she was indeed the basket case she appeared to be, right behind her, the entire Volturi stepped out of the forest walking up behind Rose. Aro handed her a robe to cover up with and planted a kiss on her cheek.

"Now you all know where I've been for the past decade. You see, Aro here asked me to set up the attack when I was human, promising me great rewards when all was said and done. All I had to do was make sure that Carlisle found me, changed me, and took me under his wing. That way, I could get all of the information needed to bring down the wrath of our gods on your pathetic heads." Rose stated.

"Di, it's time!" Marcus called. She slowly walked over to where Marcus was, standing beside Aro. As she took her place between the 2 men, Aro leaned over, kissed her cheek and welcomed her back into their world. Along with thanking her for her sacrifice.

Well, now we know who the rats are. Thank god they don't know of our gifts.

"The way I see it, you have 2 choices. Join us...or die! Rose, you can release Edward and Em from your influence." Aro stated with a cocky grin covering his face.

I looked over to Bella who had a fierce determination on her face as she turned to Em and I. "Is it true?" she asked. "Were you really under her influence this whole damn time?" Bella asked.

I looked over her shoulder to Em who looked just as perplexed as I did. Were we really brain washed to believe that we were her mates this whole time? Something in the back of my mind told me that we were indeed true mates. When Em read that realization as it fell over my facial features, he gave a quick nod as we both looked into Bella's eyes. "Guess we'll just have to see for ourselves won't we?" I asked Bella and Em in their minds.

DUN Dun dun...I know, I'm sure you hate my guts after being gone so long and then leaving such a bad ass cliffie for ya! So tell me...is what they have real? Or was it fabricated with the help of Rose? Well, show me some love and we'll see how soon we get to find out ;) love you guys!

Please don't hate me!
