THANK YOU FOR REVIWING! I'm giving you another POV today, I hope you enjoy. WARNING:This is the reason it is rated T, Tanya likes to curse a lot and there will be violence and even rape in this chapter. If this triggers anything, please just skip ahead. I'm changing the rating for Mature. I've read over your review and I was glad you liked it. Sorry that chapter wasn't really an ExB or BxJ chapter, but it was necessary. The song for this chapter is No one believes me by Kid Cudi…
Have you ever felt
Something evil
Lurking around
The moon is full
The streets are empty
Shadows cover the town
You can't call it
You can't shake the feeling
Be quiet not one sound
But the wind seems to speak
Something's here in the room with me
Tanya Carinthia Denali's POV:
I didn't think vampires could get sick, but after seeing that crappy puppy-love display by Edward and his bitch, I was wrong. Seriously who does that bitch think she is? She shows up out of nowhere and sinks her fangs into my Eddie's neck like she owns the whole fucking vampire race! Even then I would have taken that skank down. I've been trying to get with Edward for the past century, and then it shows up and… oh, what's that? Sorry Tanya I can't talk to you anymore because I have found the 'love of my life' and she is far better than you so beat it. Yeah…I'm feeling the love Edward.
Does he not see how committed I was, and still am, to him? Even if he is a fucking virgin! He needs someone like me, experienced, seductive, and powerful. Not that little innocent prick he picked up from the south. She needs to back the hell off before I show her how real woman defend their mates. Little bitch irritates me so much…
She's even an imprint to a stupid disgusting smelling mutt! I worry that Edward has lost his mind; clearly he has been away from me for far too long. I would need to visit more often, Esme wouldn't mind at all. She truly did love me, but I just wished Edward loved me more. I am considering killing Bella, but I fear he would just become a zombie again like the time when he thought she had died. Alice told me what happened…well she more like threatened me to stay away from them because they've already been through so much. That bitchy midget needs to shut the fuck up. It was bad enough the blonde hoe glared at me every second of every god damn day, now I have 'Alibelle' down my throat while I watched Edward cuddle up with that infectious bitch.
That's the reason I left the family when we all went hunting. I couldn't stand to even hear those two talking, I would be the first vampire ever to vomit. That wouldn't be pretty. So I grabbed Kate and dragged her farther to the northern side of the forest where I smelt a bear. I didn't think Emmett would mind…much.
After I drained the bear, I was going to turn back and catch up to my sister when I heard Bella yelling. She sounded like she was arguing with someone, almost fighting. Not wanting to draw to much attention to myself, I crept up near the large oak trees and peered around to find one of the most shocking images I've ever seen.
The wolves were dragging Bella forcefully away by her shoulders across the boundary line. She screamed and sobbed for them to let her go, but they just growled in reply and ran faster, trying not to attract unwanted attention. I felt a smirk spread across my shocked face and I moved back into the bushes. Whatever was happening didn't look good in Bitchy Bella's favor. With her out of the picture, due to the wolves, maybe the Cullen's won't feel as upset. After all, weren't they friends with the wolves? I didn't really listen to that conversation; I was too busy watching how Edward's muscles rippled from under his shirt.
I walked away until I could no longer see them, and then sprinted backwards into the forest. "Kate, there you are! I was looking for you but got distracted when I smelt a deer." I lied easily through my teeth. Kate smiled and swung her legs off the tree branch she was sitting on. "It's okay, I wasn't going anywhere." We ran back to the family where it seemed all the pairs were just joining in the Cullen's backyard. All but one…
"Has anyone seen Jasper or Bella?" Rosalie asked while looking around at our smaller group. That's when it finally set in that two members of the Cullen clan weren't present. "Where are they?" Edward asked in a panicked voice. Even the all-knowing Alice had a look of worry on her face. Carlisle walked over to his son and rested a comforting hand on his shoulder. "I'm sure they're still hunting, son" He comforted him, but it didn't work well. "Yeah, I was actually with them an hour ago near the creek; they were catching up on some hunting they missed due to our water fight." Emmett replied laughing. Alice and Edward sighed in annoyance and we followed them inside.
An hour later and we were still sitting in the living room looking out the window, waiting for them to return. I kept my mind focused on my sisters, or even Edward, that way he would feel too uncomfortable to look into my mind. I was surprised however when Jasper didn't return. Had the wolves taken him as well? I didn't really care, after all it would be one less Cullen to distract Edward.
This all changed when we heard a distressed voice screaming, "Bella!" We all shot off the couches and ran outside to meet Jasper. He ran towards us, looking out of breathe and fearful. "Jasper, where is Bella!" Edward ran to him, eyes wide. Jasper looked around at all of us and his face became horrified. "Oh god…I thought….I thought she came back early…I THOUGHT SHE WAS WITH YOU!" We all stopped breathing. My family in shock, the Cullen's in fear and anger, and myself to help suppress my laughter.
"Oh my heavens" Esme gasped covering her mouth. Carlisle brought her to his side, looking equally as worried but creating a mask to show his leader status. He needed to stay strong for his family, and I couldn't help but respect him even more for that…even if it was because of Bitchy Bella.
"Alright everyone calm down. She probably just got lost or decided to hunt some more. After all it has been a while since she has been to Forks. She probably needed to get familiar with her surroundings." Carlisle said, although Edward and Jasper were still tensed. "But what if something bad happened to her…were just standing around here!" Emmett yelled and Carlisle sighed. "Alice can you see anything?" We all turned towards her and her eyes glazed over for a second. She stumbled back and Jasper caught her. When her eyes opened, she looked frantic. "I-I…can't! I can't see anything!"
Edward growled and replied through his clenched teeth, "We need to find her." Jasper and Emmett nodded in agreement. "Boys calm down, I'm sure she is just with Jacob." Carlisle replied and I bit down on my lip. She was with Jacob alright…
"Let's just…go inside for now. We can call Jacob and make sure she is safe, okay?" Rosalie said looking gloomier than before. Emmett pecked her cheek and carried her inside while we followed. I noticed Esme dragging Edward inside and stroking his hair, telling him Bella would be fine. Alice was comforting Jasper, and he was trying to distract himself by kissing her, but anyone could tell it wasn't working because he kept glancing out the window.
About five minutes later, Emmett's loud frustrated sigh filled the room. "Can we call her now?" Edwards head whipped towards Carlisle and he nodded his head. Jasper took out his phone and tossed it to Edward who pressed speed dial and put it on speaker. About five rings later and it went straight to Bella's voice mail. Hearing her nasally voice made me want to gag. "Try Jacob?" Alice suggested, looking very pout out. Ha! Servers her right. I bet she doesn't like to see what it's like for the rest of us non-future-seekers.
After the third ring, a miracle happened. Jacob answered his phone. I sat up straighter, a little shocked and slightly afraid. "Hello?" His glum voice filled the room and made everyone on edge. "Jacob! Where's Bella? Is she with you? We haven't seen her since our last hunt!" I suppressed an annoyed sigh. Edward shouldn't be so worried about that piece of trash, he'd be better off without her. His head spun around and he snarled at me. Oops, I forgot to block that thought. I smiled seductively at him and he rolled his eyes, turning back to the mutt.
"Guys…I'm so sorry…" that stopped us. What exactly was he sorry about? Edward clenched the phone so tightly; Rose had to snap it out of his hand before he broke it. "What. Are. You. Talking. About. Jacob?" He growled. I got the chills, Edward rarely spoke like that. Even if it did turn me on, I wouldn't want to go near him.
"I tried to stop them, I really did…but they chained me up to the cave…and I…I just…watched…" the dog sounded like he was nearing hysteria. Edward looked the part. "WHAT!" He shouted at the same time Jasper grabbed the phone and growled, "What happened mutt?" Jacob sighed and before he could continue we heard a struggling nose and a lot of beeping. Someone was trying to get the phone from his hand. "Paul stop it!" Jake yelled as the phone on the other end was jostled around.
"Hello there Cullen's" Paul said cockily into the phone. The family growled and I stayed silent, intercepting the news. "Let me ask you this one more time. Where. Is. She." Edward's voice was sharp and deadly. Although Paul just laughed and replied, "Who?" Edward snarled and yelled, "MY WIFE YOU DOG!" Paul chuckled as we heard Jacob growl in the background. "Oh the bitch, we handled her-"he didn't have time to finish before Jasper snapped the phone in half and Edward flew out the front door, throwing it off its hinges. "Edward, stop!" Alice yelled. We all followed him through the woods, not knowing where we were headed.
We continued to follow him when it suddenly clicked in Rosalie's mind. She gasped and started to chase after Edward faster. "Edward, don't you dare cross that line!" But it was too late; he and Jasper had already run straight across the river, now on La Push territory. I looked around, not knowing what to do. One by one, the rest of the Cullen's followed and soon even my family. With one more glance at Kate, she shrugged her shoulders and jumped across the river. I snarled in irritation and glumly followed.
Chicago Park bench (Bella's Territory) 2008
Isabella Marie Whitlock Mason Cullen's POV:
Watching the small fountain spew its crystal clear water into tiny droplets that danced on top of the lake made me realize how much I missed my mate. It was the same exact season and same exact time where we had once fought over what's right and what's wrong. The same spot where I convinced him he wasn't a monster, just a troubled boy who needed guidance and love. The same spot where it seemed like the beginning and the end.
I could only imagine what they were doing right now, knowing I had failed them once more. I didn't even deserve to go back, but I was to selfish not too. I had caused them so much pain, why would they want me to return? It just didn't make sense, but none of it ever did. I felt a slight shift on the bench and extra heat radiate from my left. "You know…we still need to visit the last territory…" Kim said, stroking my arm in a comforting way. I closed my eyes and sighed, nodding my head in defeat. I could mope later on, I should at least say hello to my fellow 'roommates' so I won't be rude.
I followed Kim outside and across the hall to the last door. It was a vibrant blood red. I had no idea what that meant, but all these signs popped up in my head screaming at me to turn and run. My feet turned too led and my stance became solid. Kim raised a brow in my direction and I cleared my throat shaking my head. She nodded and opened the door, me following silently behind her.
My mouth dropped and all the air escaped my lungs. This was the desert back home in Texas! I wouldn't forget its beauty anywhere! The sun cascaded its beautiful warm glow across the giant mountains of dirt and sand, making it aluminate like the suns reflection. I saw it then. The two half's of one horizon. Jasper and I, displayed right there in front of my very own eyes. I felt like sobbing and falling to my feet, but I couldn't. I couldn't breathe. I could only stare at the figure lurking in the desert, standing and staring at us, or actually…just me.
He was the person who I called my best friend. He was always there for me, not matter what it did to him in the end. He would always have my back, and I his. He was like another brother to me. I was like another sister to him. He was my longest and closest best friend. He was a big piece in my life, and also, the end of it. He ruined me. He killed my soul, more so than when Jasper left or I was kidnapped from Edward. My brother and my husband had no idea what happened. But the memories came back at me full force, and before I knew it, I had blacked out.
Houston Texas, 1864
Isabella Marie Whitlock's POV:
"Isabella, are you sure you wouldn't want our son to escort you?" Mrs. Frost asked kindly as I pulled on my jacket. It was an unusually cold night here in Houston. "Oh no thank you Mrs. Frost, I wouldn't want to be a pest for poor Thomas." I smiled as he entered the room. He chuckled and replied, "Nonsense, I shall escort you home." I blushed but reluctantly shook my head. "I will be just fine. My home is but only a few minutes away. I would like to enjoy the night's piece before getting back to Ben." They chuckled and Mrs. Frost replied, "alright dear, just please be safe. A lady such as yourself shouldn't be unescorted at such an hour." I smiled and hugged her warmly.
The Frosts were like second family to me. I was friends with their daughter Vivian and her older brother Thomas. Although Vivian wasn't my closet friend, I still liked to visit her often and drink tea. She was a total loud mouth and loved to gossip, it was always entertaining to hear her rant. But my closet friend was Alexander Samuels. I had known him since the day I was born. He was Ben's age and was always over at my house almost like he lived there. I thought of him like another brother. I bet once I returned home, he would be leaving. Jasper didn't like him only because he was a male friend of mine, but I could tell he tolerated him for Ben.
I just recently spent the day at their house with Vivian, but had to get back to help mother cook. The sun was just setting, so hopefully I could still see the sidewalk in the dark. Normally I would have accepted Thomas's offer, but he reminded me too much of Jasper. I had already lost Jackson, and Jasper was still in the war. It pained me to be near him.
I waved my hand as I walked past there house and continued my journey down the long strip of road. The gravel of the street crunched with every passing hoarse and carriage. I would politely nod to the drivers as they waved to me. Although I didn't miss their questioning gazes as they saw me by myself walking.
A few moments later, and the night had taken over the sky. Only the moonlight guided me back home. The temperature dropped drastically and I felt chills go up my spin. I tightened my shoal around my shoulders and quickened my pace. I had a strange feeling, almost like I was being watched. My fears were answered when I turned the next corner.
I yelped as my mouth was covered and cold hands dragged me back towards an alleyway. I had heard about this from my mother, and I tried to remember what she had told me about self-defense. Everything was drawn from my mind and I was left with a blank. I felt them throw my against the brick wall and my cheek get smashed into the hard bricks. Blood split from a large gash on my forehead and salt water assaulted my eyes as I cried.
I opened my mouth to scream for help, but the large hand was back to sealing my lips shut. "Don't yell, it will only make things worse." He said in a chilling voice. A voice I had known all too well. A voice that scared me and confused me to no end. He let his hand go and I slowly turned around, my entire frame shaking in fear and disgust. "Alexander?"
He chuckled and replied, "Hello Isabella. A young lady like you shouldn't be wandering the streets by herself this late at night. Don't you know what kind of dangerous men could be lurking out there? And you're such a beautiful young thing…hhhmmmm…anyone would kill to be with you." The tears came more and more as I breathed through my nose. I smelt the alcohol drenched around him and saw his bloodshot eyes. This wasn't Alex, this was a monster. A drunken fool…and I was his prey for the night.
He ran his dirty hand to my ankle and I stopped breathing. "NO" I gasped out through my cries, he just smiled. His hand slid higher up until it reached my knee and he began to circle his fingers on my skin. I bit my lip, drawing blood. His other hand grabbed my waist and dragged me to the floor where my back hit the cold and wet concrete. I screamed with fright, forgetting his rule. He grunted and punched me in the face, making my nose break and drawing more blood. I cried silently as the world around my closed in.
He pulled my dress up to my hips until he had a full view of my lady parts. He smiled down at me with hooded eyes and purred, "You're so pretty Bella….such a woman…" He brought his hand down to the top of my underwear and began to go downwards. I closed my eyes, not wanting to whiteness this. I wanted to die. What had happened to my friend, why was he acting like this vulgar animal? I bit my lip harder.
He got on top of me and I struggled underneath his weight. Alex was about 6'2, and very muscular. He liked to play football, the new sport or so I've heard from school. He was almost impossible to tackle, and now I understood why. I peeked open an eyes when I felt his hands leave my body. But then I saw why. He was unbuttoning his trousers and pulling his pants to his knees. I tried to sit up but he threw me back to the ground by elbowing me in the ribs. I couldn't breathe for a second, as the air was knocked out of me. I stayed silent and tried to catch my breath. As soon as I got it back, it was stolen when he placed his hands on top of my breast, squeezing them tight and hurting me.
Once he had my underwear all the way down, I felt a searing pain spread from the core of my body all the way down to my toes and up to my head. I opened my mouth to scream but he slammed his hand over my lips, stitching them together with his fingers. He dug deeper into me and I found myself slowly numbing. Not just from the pain, but from the world. I didn't want to be here anymore. I didn't want to continue living. My one true friend had just stolen what was most sacred to me.
After he was finished, I laid there silently. My eyes glazed over, my body frozen on the floor. I felt dead. He buttoned his pants, stood tall, smirked down at me, then walked away. I remained silent until the sun rose. I slowly stood up and walked back to my house, receiving various stares from my disarrayed appearance. Many woman gasped and men openly stared. I just looked straight ahead and continued to slowly walk to my house.
When I opened the door, I was surprised to see everyone acting casual. My father was in the living room reading the paper. My mother was cooking, and my brothers were in their rooms. I walked into the kitchen and sat at the table, staring at my shaking hands. "Hello sweetheart, did you enjoy your sleepover? Don't worry, Alexander stopped by last night and told us that you wanted us to know you were sleeping at Vivian's house." I looked at her, my mouth shut but my eyes screaming. I nodded my head and walked away. I didn't talk for the rest of the week and when anyone asked about my bruises the following days; I just told them I fell. They believed me.
