Hey guys here is the next chapter enjoy!

CH. 12:

Jpov:

I watched as Bella walk outside grabbing her phone on the way. I notice Niki following her wagging her tail as Bella absently runs her free hand down her back. I find myself smiling at the view. Even with all the drama going on she looks completely relaxed, even her emotions aren't as wild as you would think. Happiness, determination, protectiveness, but with an underlining tone of worry and uncertainty. That made me frown, but then I realized compared to everyone else she was the most under control, the most relaxed.

I looked around the kitchen where everyone was sitting around, laughing and having fun joking around with each other it was almost like we were a regular family, you know besides the fact that only two of us were eating, then again those two ate enough for all of us.

The puppies were watch Leah and Seth with all their attention waiting for a scrap to fall or be handed to them, only for them to fight over the scrap like it was the last morsel of food left on earth. Then there was Bree and Eliza who sat in the laps of the shifters. Eliza leaning back into Leah every once in a while kissing her neck. Bree was sitting in Seth's lap too but was actually talking to Char and Peter. Something about Texas, but I was too focused on Bella whose emotions just took a drastic turn to suspicion, worry, and anger spiking through the roof. Listening to the end of the phone call I heard Bella say "alright we will meet you at the meadow at ten. Yeah thanks see you in a couple hours Jacob." That caught my attention we were going to set up the meeting at the old Cullen Mansion, so why were we meeting at the Meadow?

My thoughts were cut off as Bella walked in a scowl on her face, walking straight to me I wrapped my arms around her from my position on the kitchen island. Drawing her closer to me so my chest touched her back I asked "what's the matter Darlin?" my accent coming out with my worry. She turned around in my arms placing a reassuring kiss on my lips before she drew back smiling at me with so much love that if my heart was still beating it would have skipped a beat. Then her smile slipped of worry creasing her brow "it's something Jake said to me, no not really what he said but how he said it. He said he didn't want to meet at the Cullen estate but I could since his fear at something like he was hiding something from me. But he just said that he didn't want to deal with the smell, but we've been long enough for it to disperse right? So what is he trying to hide from us?" she asked me gaining the attention of the room as she explained what was bothering her.

"I don't know Darlin but I think we should head over to the mansion before we meet them at the meadow. See if we can find out what he is trying to hide and see if we can find anything about anymore of Carlisle's experiments." I declare ready to figure out what Jake has going on.

"I agree we should get there quickly, Jacob might go and erase his involvement or any clues to what the big secret is. I have a feeling he might go to cover his tracks and get rid of evidence" peter adds his two cents.

"Alright, alright everyone get ready to leave. Are we bringing the wolves?" Bella asks.

"We can bring them but we should leave them at the mansion for the meeting with Set and Leah since Jacob doesn't know of their involvement or the fact that you are the new alpha in town." Peter says to everyone before walking up stairs with Char, probably to change since we are still in our traveling clothes.

Leaning forward to put my chin on Bella's shoulder I breathe in her citrus scent calming me when I didn't even realize how tense I was getting. "we should get changed too honey" I said calmly as I took in her outfit ripped tank top and shorts from the run here with the puppies, making my lust spike. She grinned wickedly at me feeling her effect on me she ground her hips into me making me groan softly pulling her closer to me, kissing her roughly before she pulled herself from my grasp. "I might need help with that Major." She purred racing out of the house, me right on her heals.

Bpov:

After everyone was ready to go I took off Niki in my arms while her puppies were held by the rest of the pack, Jasper holding Raven, Eliza holding Thor, Leah holding Red, and Bree holding King. We had decided not to phase due to the puppies plus it was only a short distance no need to phase for a minute run right?

When I reached the creek that ran through the back yard I slowed down to a stop letting Niki out of my arms and watched as she checked on her pups finding them all fine she lead them to a shady spot under an oak tree to relax. I took Jasper's hand squeezing it for reassurance as I made my way into the house only to stop when a feral growl ripped through the house. My instincts told me to be on alert. But the sound came from the basement sounding like a cat. I knew I found what Jake was trying to hide, another experiment.

I felt Jasper squeeze my hand and push calm into me making me take a deep breath turning to smile at him in thanks. I saw the rest of my pack frozen looking at me for instructions "I'll go to see what's down there everyone else stay up here, and before you try to come with me Jasper Whitlock they are probably terrified I know I was so let me go by myself. Trust me?" I ask Jasper looking in his eyes to get my point across. He nods to me with a frown on his face. I kiss him in thanks then make my way over to the door that leads to the basement.

(I was going to end it there but I will be generous this time-you're welcome)

Hearing the growls coming from below me turn to fearful hisses I stop "it's going to be ok I'm just going to let you out, help you. Trust me I was in the same position you are not even a week ago. I'm coming down now ok?" I ask trying to calm the cat-person down I hear a soft rumble in response so I start making my way down again.

When I reach the landing I only see one door, made of what looks like steel with a huge lock on it locking the creature inside. "I'm going to try to break the lock now ok?" I ask getting the rumbling as an answer again. Reaching out and grabbing the lock firmly I pull with all my might glad for my new strength hearing the steel ripping apart. Finally breaking the lock I toss it aside. "I'm going to open the door now ok?" I ask silence is all I hear taking that as my queue to open the door I find the room a lot like the one I was in a bed and a steel table little else as furniture goes, but what catches my eyes are the glowing blue eyes staring at me from the shadows of the room. Letting my eyes adjust I find that the eyes belong to none other than a Siberian tiger. Which I might add is curled up in a ball terrified of me. Taking a closer look at the large feline and her room I notice dried blood on the floor by the examination table and see a few scars on the tiger's neck, mostly needle marks but under the blood I can see a bite mark exactly like mine, Carlisle. My eyes flash silver as my anger flashes. I hear a whimper from the beast and take a big breath, no need to scare her more.

Once I have my anger under control I smile at the shifter "hello my name is Bella Swan and I'm hear to free you and maybe help answer some questions but before that why don't I help you phase back?" I say calmly trying to reassure the tigress. She tilts her head at me which makes me smile at the absurdity of this whole situation. She gets up walking over to me cautiously I hold out my hand for her to sniff trying to act the least threatening as possible. She sits down in front of me nodding her assent watching my every move carefully, like she doesn't believe I'm here.

"Ok so what you have to do is think of your human self but before you do I will warn you, you will change back naked so I'll give you some of my clothes for now ok?" I explain taking my back pack off before fishing out a pair of shorts and a tank top for her. Placing them on the ground and turning to give the girl some privacy. Hearing her phase back and the ruffle of clothes then clearing of a throat I turn back to look at her for the first time to find a shock of a life time. Standing before me is none other than Angela Weber.

It takes me while to get myself working again, when I do I see Angela looking at me frightened and scared like I would do anything to hurt her. It makes me wish I made Carlisle suffer more before his death. Oh well nothing can be changed now.

Focusing back on Angela I see her shaking with fear her eyes big with terror. I push away the need to pull her into my arms in comfort, that wouldn't help her right now. "Ang? It's ok I won't let anyone hurt you again Promise" I say trying to comfort her. "Bel…Bella?" she asks in fear looking around for danger "yeah Ang it's me ill protect you now he will never lay a finger on you again I swear I will protect you" I say trying to get over my anger at the doctor for what he did to sweet innocent Angela.

I open my arms to her to comfort her. She runs into my arms immediately crying on my shoulder with relief, that it's finally done no more tests or fear or pain. I make a promise right then and there to protect her just like the rest of the pack, the rest of my family. "shhh… it over no one will hurt you again I promise" I find myself cooing to her. She nods through her tears. I pick her up holding her to my chest and sit on the unused bed rocking her softly.

We stayed like that for a while just trying to calm her down letting it all out of her system. When her cries quiet down some she pulls away from me. Sitting next to me her head resting on my shoulder my hand running through her hair. "so what are you? If im a tiger and you said the same thing happened to you. What did he do to me?" she murmured softly. "I look at her seeing her eyes still watery and puffy I wipe the spare tears away from her cheeks lifting her chin so she is looking at me. "I'm a wolf you could say but not just a wolf, he made me into a monster. Part vampire, werewolf, shifter. I even have alpha's blood mixed in. I even have a "pack" now. Two of them are my daughters, one turning into an owl the other a wolf, two of them shifters, one of the a normal wolf, four of them three quarters wolf one quarter human, plus three vampires one of which is my imprint. Not even counting th three I promised the two shifters I said I'd save. Welcome to the kitchen sink of a family, Ang." I paused seeing happiness in her eyes, "but I don't know what exactly he did to you but if I had to guess it was something similar to Bree, who turns into an owl. He mixed the phasing gene of a shifter with owl DNA for her so I'd say he did the same to you only with tiger DNA." I summerise looking over to her to see she has shock all over her face. It is a lot to take in at once I'll admit.

"do you want to meet everyone else?" I ask softly getting off the bed. She nods getting off the bed following me to the door. As I go to leave the room I feel her put her hand on my arm stopping me. I look over at her to see her looking determined.

"what happened to Dr. Cullen?" she asks looking into my eyes.

I feel them change into silver, locking eyes with her i say simply, "I killed him" turning to go up the stairs. After a second she follows.
