Splendour Mine

A/N:

In this story the character names belong to Stephenie Meyer but the chapter titles come from William Shakespeare's epic tale, Romeo & Juliet. The slash is all my idea.

Chapter 142. I do protest, I never injured thee.

-Jasper-

I was floored, but not so much that I didn't look out for my little brother when James screamed with rage and shook him so hard that his teeth must have rattled, and then flung him backwards. I reached forward to steady him, and I could feel his body shaking. Edward was so brave to have tried to stop the violence between our families, but he was not yet eighteen and matters were escalating fast.

I wondered aloud as to why Edward would say he was married but he confirmed that he had this very day and I believed him.
