Chapter Five

Edwards POV

To say the least, this new coven was very interesting and Amanda, the coven leader does have and extraordinary gift. Which with no doubt Carlisle will want to study, it's fascinating how she can have all the traits of a vampire get still be able to bear children. I was still having trouble wrapping my mind around the fact that she had given birth to all seven of the males standing in front of us. Most impressively would have to be Jesse her youngest and from what I can tell the only human in the coven. Just the fact that a vampire is able to give birth to children is amazing let alone the fact that she gave birth to a human who was fathered by a vampire. It seems that Carlisle has a lot of research ahead of him if he wants to find out about this coven, and Rosalie. She's wanted children ever since she found out that she was a vampire and here is a vampire contradicting everything we know about the boundaries of what vampires can and can't do. Granted Rosalie knows nothing about what Amanda can do but I have a feeling that she will this Amanda doesn't look like she's one to be ashamed of her gift, but then again why should she be. She is probably the only female vampire in existed who can do what she can. In her case and especially by her thoughts she loves her live just as much and even more perhaps then her human life. I guess I can see why, she had been infertile while human and not been able to bear children, every woman's nightmare and it seems that upon her change, her body was repaired and in doing so she is now able to bear children something she was previously unable to do while human. But I'm not entirely sure, I guess we'll have to wait for Carlisle's opinion when they decide to tell us and from what I gathered in their minds the new coven didn't have any plans to tell us on the first meeting.

I had been paying more attention to there thoughts then the actual conversation going between Carlisle and Amanda so only picked up a small amount of it like Carlisles usual greeting of Hello, my name is Carlisle and this is my family. And that's when I heard it one of the boys Marcus his name was, paying out his younger brother, the human, Jesse his name was. "Hey Jesse, you think the youngest one of them is hot ay? She is quite a looker" was what he said and then wolf whistled. I felt sorry for the boy he was the youngest and the only human with his male hormones and not being able to hide them like the rest of his brothers. Until I realised that his brother, Marcus was talking about Nessie to which I automatically growled. I was surprised when two other growls joined mine. One from the coven leader Amanda and the other from one of her sons, hm…Josh his name was. The one from Josh intrigued me the most, he was standing leaning in the direction of Nessie while looking at Marcus almost like he wanted to rip his head off. Now that was interesting, it seems that Marcus got the drift he wasn't to talk about Nessie like that, well at least not in front of this Josh guy anyway. Which was interesting since I didn't know why he was so protective? I think that was what it was but I'd have to ask Jasper on his exact emotion on the time of the growl. I mean I don't see how he could have had that emotion, they haven't even met before, have they?

Now all I had to do was think of a way to ask Jasper to tell me what this Josh guy was thinking while growling at his brother Marcus. It was definitely going to be a challenge with sixteen vampires around us and one human whom we didn't know the capabilities of I was going to be hard pressed to whisper a message to Jasper, but I might as well try. Just as I was looking for an opening to when most of my family were engrossed with talking to the Heart coven I started to get Jaspers attention. "Hey Jazz" I whispered as low as I could, well for a vampire anyway. It seems some of the other coven noticed me, including Josh.
