Jasper pov

Maria was worrying in the corner seat. It wouldn't stop her if she wanted to leave. I saw the Cullens sitting in the booth in the far corner away from everyone else. Alice was all over Edward who had an arm around her. Carlisle also had a protective arm around his mate as did Emmett. Esme had a hand on Carlisle's thigh. It was a calming position for both of them. Rosalie had her head on Emmett's shoulder and a hand on his chest. I saw both couples in this position many times when in a stressing situation. I knew both Rose and Esme were holding hands out of view. It was their claim as sisters. The table near us was taken by the three kings and Peter with his mate. They were observing the room for possible trouble. Peter doesn't know Maria is my mate but the Volturi will if they are here and as they are together it will come out. Edward and Alice will cause trouble for my Isabella as will the last of her tables. It was a big table to fit all the shifters around it with their mates. The La Push pack.

"Jas is everything ok?" my mate asked quietly. I could feel her fear and worry for Isabella. "There is going to be trouble, isn't there?"

"Yeah there is Maria. Good job she has served her tables. We have to join the next table over but we will wait for her to go back to her table. They won't let anything happen. I promise." Kissing her on the cheek I looked down to her.

"She seems nice but not whole." Maria smiled up at me with a gleam in her eyes promising pain. "I can see why you are so taken with her."

I smirked at my mate and raised an eyebrow at her words. "Are you jealous Maria?"

"Of course not." Maria gasped out at me sending shock and mischief. "Just stating a point. She is strong willed to do this."

We watched everything that happened. I stood as Isabella passed the table. I was going to make sure she got back to hers without any problems. I helped my mate up and turned to Isabella. "Baby this is Maria."

She looked at us and smiled. Her love shone through her negative emotions as did her approval. "Hello." Her voice was just above a whisper but I heard it. "I'm sorry if I seemed rude earlier."

My mate looked at me then back to the girl when I nodded. "It's ok hun." Maria smiled in return to the little human. "Jasper has told me so much about you."

Isabella blushed as she looked at me. Her scent increased making a few of the vampires growl. She didn't hear them but everyone else did. I looked down at Maria and we both smirked at the reaction. "All good I hope." Maria giggled as my smirk grew. I wrapped my arm around her waist and hugged her. Hearing her smile in contentment made me smile even though all eyes were on us for different reasons.

Looking around I saw some glares aimed at my sister. I felt others. "Idiots."

"What the hell is she doing here? I saw her jump. She is supposed to be dead."

"Don't worry as those three are here so she will die tonight."

"If she is here then does that mean Angel is here?"

"Izzy I'm so sorry."

I heard every word that was said and storing all information I needed for later. But there was more whispering.

"We have to get them back to La Push then give Bella her punishment for running and kidnapping Angel."

"Let's get you back to your family darlin'. And we better go see what we are wanted for Maria." I looked to Maria then Peter and across to my sisters table. Maria following my quiet instructions as she followed my eyes.

Realisation flashed in her eyes. Nodding her head she mumbled under her breathe. "Not on my watch they don't. I hate those dogs but I hate the two rats too."

"Ok. Thanks Jasper and Maria. My dad has been asking about you Jasper. He wanted to know when you would be back. I told him you weren't coming back but he's um … my dad."

Laughing I let go of her and handed her to James. He stood waiting for her with the rest of their family watching. "Go back to your family. I'll see you later darlin' as I've come home for a while."

"Bye Jasper. It was nice seeing you and Maria." I returned her smile as James bowed his head in respect. I saw Victoria and Laurent do the same. I was glad I didn't kill him as well as giving him time to mark her. I knew she would be safe with him around.

Once she was sat down with James' protective arm around her I turned to my mate. "Let's go and set off some fireworks darlin'." She smiled and nodded her head. So we walked back to the little fucker that was my brother.

Char got up and ran to me wrapping her arms around my waist. "Jasper we were worried when we couldn't find you."

A frown replaced the smile that was on my face. My mate was frowning too. "What are you talking about Char?"

"Every time we would call you Alice would hang up or say something nasty. She said that we were never to speak to you again and that you never wanted to see us. She said that you hated us and didn't know why you bothered saving us. That you would kill us for the punishment and abuse you got after letting us go."

My anger grew to boiling point. That two faced cheating pixie. Some of the shifters and almost all of the vampires bared their necks top me. I saw movement from James' table and what I saw shocked me. Isabella was on her knees on the floor neck bared and hands behind her back. Every part of me was pleased with how submissive she showed she was. Her respect also pleased me. But she was my baby sister. I made my way to her and every eye was on me. As I passed the shifters I heard whispering.

"That's where she belongs." Leah Clearwater.

"If only she would join the rest of the rubbish." Jacob Black.

I turned an icy glare to them and growled but I wasn't the only one. Others growled as all vampire eyes turned to them. Some of the shifters glared at their own pack siblings with disbelief. James moved so I could get to my little sister. "Mi bonito Hermana Isabella. Never bow down to anyone. Not even a mate. If anyone forces you to serve them let me know and I'll willingly serve you." She took my offered hand and once she was standing I led her back to Peter's table.

Maria looked to me and I nodded telling her it was time. "Mi carino Angelo." Maria hugged her and smiled at the little human's reaction.

I picked Isabella up by the waist and placed her on the table. She stayed standing as me, Maria, Peter and Char stood in front of her. "That is where Isabella Marie Swan belongs. Above everything and everyone else." I looked to Peter. He knew what I wanted.

"Remember what I said when I came to you?" the kings nodded their heads as I spun Isabella around. "Remember everything I said."

Marcus looked from Isabella to me. The question shining in his eyes. "She-"

"Yes Marcus she is." I smiled at my sister. "She was my mission in Forks. And the reason my mate changed." Maria squeezed my hand. "Things didn't go the way they were meant to but she now belongs to this world."

Angela grabbed Isabella's hands. "Remember when things got rough and you would cry to me? You said you weren't worth it." She nodded her head. "You aren't worth it." Tears sprung to Isabella's eyes. "You are worth a lot more than the mongrels let you believe. Bells you came to school with new bruises and cuts. I'm not stupid but I do know what was happening."

Isabella nodded her head in sadness. The pain evident in her eyes. "I know but my dad didn't he still doesn't. I wasn't allowed to see him enough for him to notice anything was wrong."
