Lies

EPOV

We ran together, seven vampires and one werewolf. I had no idea where we were going or if they would give me my Bella. But I needed her and Seth and the wolves had her. As we covered miles of land I thought carefully over what Seth had said. But it didn't make any sense.

Jacob had lied to them. Then attacked Sam the alpha of the pack!

I was confused. I hoped we would be there son and would be able to get the truth out of the dogs soon.

As we neared Jacob's house my nose burnt at the smell. Walking in through the front door was like walking in to a stink bomb factory… yuck!!! The room was filled with werewolves. Sam was lying in a pool of blood, which for the first time didn't appeal to me; there was Quil, Paul, Jared, Embry, Leah, Brady and Collin who were stood around obviously unable to help Sam and were waiting for us.

Wow I thought the pack had grown.

Carlisle went into doctor mode immediately; he quickly examined Sam's body searching for the source of blood. I ignored him and turned to the nearest mutt, I vaguely recognised him as Collin. "Right where is she?" I tried to keep my voice low I knew this pack of vermin could help me get to Bella. I had to be patient kind and understanding. These guys had just found there Alpha, lying half dead in a pool of blood because of one of there brothers. You had to pity them…narr

I seized Collin roughly, and snarled at him "TELL ME YOU FUCKING MONGREL" Venin was pooling in my mouth, angry was boiling in me coursing through my veins as if it was blood.

"EDWARD" Carlisle had stood up and was facing me his face hard, "Let. Him. Go." Carlisle's voice was soft quite, but full of power. It wasn't an option. It was an order.

Out of shock more than anything I dropped the dog who backed in to the corner, looking from me to Carlisle.

Carlisle turned to Seth who was hovering in the door way, watching the scene, expressionless. "Sam has lost a lot of blood but he will be ok. The speed of a werewolf's recovery is producing enough blood to keep him alive. The trouble is as much good as it is doing Sam, the speed of his recovery is a problem. The glass from the table is imbedded inside of him, and his skin is healing fast, with the glass still inside." The pack remained silent watching Carlisle desperately. "I'll need to remove the fragments of glass by cutting open his skin."

Embry winced "Can you do that will he be ok?"

Carlisle smiled "Yes, but I need my medical kit from the house. Rosalie you know the one, in my study, in the old chest. Can you fetch it?"

She nodded, and darted from the room. Probably glad to escape the smell, I noticed none of the rest of my family were breathing. I looked back to Carlisle, my hands were shaking I needed information, who cared about Sam? If he was to die fine let him die! No one is more important than my Bella. Carlisle met my eyes briefly, then moved on.

"Is there a blanket or any cover we can use to put on the sofa so Sam can be moved on to it?"

Jared hurried out the room and returned with an old looking blanket. He spread it on the sofa with Esme's help. Whilst Jasper and Carlisle picked up Sam carefully and laid him out on the sofa. His shirt was dripping blood and was shredded and I could see pieces of glass protruding from his skin. Esme, bless her had fetched water from the kitchen with a cloth, and proceeded to mop up Sam. Carlisle smiled at her then turned to Seth. "Please we need to know why you did what you did tonight. How Sam ended up like this and where Bella is now." Carlisle's voice was again soft but full of order. Seth nodded gravely and proceeded to tell the story:

"Jacob needed a break we all knew he was going mad seeing Edward with Bella. So Sam sent him off on holiday. We still kept in contact through thoughts but we could see Jacob was relaxing. Or at lest we thought.

He was gone a fortnight when Paul caught his thoughts when he was patrolling one night. They were mixed confusing; he kept running over a fight that had just happened. Paul rounded up the pack and we all phased to hear him.

He showed us a forest he had been running in. There he had come across the scent of a vampire. He followed it till he heard voices. As he peered through he trees he could see the vampire. He had his arms resting against a tree in front of him. A human girl was trapped in between them. Jake was about to attack because he was sure the vampire was intending to bite her, when the man whispered something. The girl let out a giggle that touched Jake. You see it reminded him so much of Bella that he stopped. They talked some more, then kissed. After that they said goodbye and the girl ran of smiling. Jake thought the couple where together like Edward and Bella. He would have left but, but the vampires eyes made him stay. They were red. He was not like you. He drank human blood but he was in love with a human? This didn't make sense to Jake so he stayed watching him.

The vampire made a phone call from his mobile. He said "It's all set the Volturi have agreed to the exchange…… Yes I know…… what the girl! Piece of cake she's madly in love… or a lest thinks she is, thank god for hypnosis this way I didn't have to really work hard for her to fall in love with me." That's basically all he said but it was clear as day that this vampire hypostasized the girl in to thinking she likes, do then he could exchange her with the Volturi we don't know what he was getting in return but it was obvious the ending wasn't going too be good for the girl.

Jake… stopped the vampire and then came straight home. He was worried. He had always wondered what Edward had seen in Bella and he was scared that Bella was in danger like the other girl was. That Bella too had been hypnotized.

We managed to calm Jake down. Stop him from just bursting in and taking her. We decided to wait till she was alone. We followed her for awhile but one of you was always with her, till Edward left her outside. We took her and after calming her down we told her that she was being hypnotized. She never truly believed it but something caused her to accept it. It was almost like half of her believed it and the other half didn't. But it was enough for now. We got her to change in to Leah's clothes to disguise her scent, and we brought her here.

Jake kept trying to talk to her convince her that it was all true. Then something she said must have pissed Jake off, because the next thing we hear is Jake screaming at her saying she wasn't hypnotized and that he had made it all up. He said she loved him but just didn't realise it yet. Sam got in first and Jacob phased and slammed into him knocking him over into the table, then he slung Bella on to his back and ran of with her. We tried to follow but he got a boat and we can't follow scent over the water."

I was seething with anger, as I listened to Seth's story. They thought I were hypnotizing Bella! That I was planning to hurt her!I have never laid a finger on Bella never! And now look the werewolves save her from no danger and hand her straight over to Jacob! I wanted to murder them all! When Seth had spoke that Bella was unsure of my love for her, it felt like I had been shredded. The werewolves were messing with her mind, making her doubt the surest things in her life. I vowed to get her back and never let another wolf anywhere near her.

"So the story of the girl was a lie?" Carlisle asked still calm. Alice looked like (If she could) she was bawling her head of. Esme still knelt by Sam looked crushed. Jasper's face was hard I could feel the emotions he was feeling, it was hard for him he had the wolf's guilt and our sorrow to cope with as well as his own. Emmet looked like thunder he was pacing wringing his hands.

"Yes, all a lie. We didn't think anyone could lie so well with thoughts. Please you have to understand… we didn't know we thought what we were doing was correct. Jacob made us feel so sure. We all owe you and your family. We rally acted with the best intentions."

"Yes Seth I can see that. But now we need to find Bella and help Sam."

Emmet's head snapped up. "Rosalie is back" He said. Carlisle went over to receive the bag from Rosalie and got to work on Sam. Emmet bent his head Filling Rosalie in on the story.

Seth turned to me "Ok Edward I no vampires and werewolves have never got on but if were going to save Bella I think we need to work together. Please let us help you."

I was stunned. I wanted to rip the kid apart for having anything to do with hurting Bella, but he wanted to help now…

"I just want Bella back" I whispered, I wished then to be human so I could cry. I hurt all over and had no way to release it.

"As we said" Spoke Quil for the time "Jake took a boat out we can't tack him. So there are two possibilities. One he took the boat out and is anchored of shore somewhere. Two he took the boat out went crossed water and then went back in to land further up the coast and then went on from there."

I nodded, taking it all in which ever one he chose would make it hard to track. But I will find him he wouldn't be able to hide forever…

BEEP BEEP

Who on earth was phoning me? All my family was in the room? I flipped open the phone, I didn't recognise the number

"Hello?"

"Edward its Bella"
