Nahuel
"May I use your phone?" Ella asked me once we were inside. Hulien was looking for some clothes for her and appeared a second later with Jeans a t-shirt and her phone.
"You can use mine." Hulien told her with a smile. Ella thanked her and called her sister.
"Emma?" She asked.
"Ella! Is everything ok over there?" Her sister asked quickly.
"Yes, we're fine. Are you all ok? Is the barrier down?" Ella sked her concerned. I could see that she felt bad about what happened. I touched her cheek and her frown turned into a smile as she looked at me. I would never get sick of that smile.
"Yes. We were able to move forward once you phased back. Is it really him?" Emma asked her. Ella looked at me again and smiled wider.
"Yes. Nahuel is my imprint." Ella answered her sister.
"Daddy's gonna love that!" Emma said amused. "Can I tell him?" She asked her sister but Renesmee answered for her.
"This is not a Joke Emma! And I will be the one to tell your father." I heard Renesmee over the phone. Ella instant hissed.
"Shhh. She's your mother. Tell them to make themselves at home. We'll be making our way back in a few minutes." I said and held her in my arms. I nuzzled her hair and rested my cheek on the top of her head. She felt so good in my arms.
"I'll see you guys soon." Ella told her.
"We'll be here waiting for you." Her sister said before she hung up. Ella's arms came around me.
"I won't lose you." She told me. I shook my head.
"Never again." I responded. I kissed her head and let her go so that she could change.
"Get changed. We'll head out as soon as you are done." I told her. She sighed and nodded.
I went out into the living room. Hulien already had Felipe ready to go. He looked a little tiered from all the excitement but he was happy to be going home. As soon as Ella came, we headed to my car and drove back home. Ella sat up front with me and I held her hand knowing she needed comfort.
"It will be ok, Ella." I told her.
"I just can't get over that she threatened you." She said angrily. I nodded and thought about the best way to help her.
"You're a mother Ella. How would you feel if someone threatened our son?" I asked her. She shook slightly.
"That's how your mother felt. You cannot hold that against her. Besides, how would you feel if you made a mistake with Felipe and he never forgave you?" I asked her. She looked at me saddened and nodded.
Hulien was sitting quietly in the back with Felipe resting on her lap. She reached out for Ella's shoulder and rubbed her arm comforting her. I was grateful that my aunt took to her so easily. It would have been difficult for me if she hadn't which was why I had to do everything in my power to make amends with Renesmee and Jacob. I would do anything for my Ella.
When we arrived, I saw the lights were on in the house. Ella's family was already on the front porch, having heard our car from down the road. It was strange seeing, Renesmee, Bella and next to my mate's twin. They were supposed identical but it was easy to see the differences. Ella mentioned once that Emma had overdeveloped after she phased and I could see that Emma looked several years older than Ella who her age of 18. However, now that Ella was also a wolf I was sure that would change which would be better considering I looked 25.
Emma was the first to greet her sister. She urged her not to go hard on her mother. I got out of the car and smiled at her. It was very strange to see the same eyes and slightly older face as my mate. I felt an instant connection to Emma but it was nothing like what I felt for Ella.
"I feel the connection. Its strange." Emma told her sister. I smiled at her again knowing exactly what she meant. I walked over to them and put my arm around Ella waist before I kissed her head.
"I know what its like to love and worry for a child as do you." I reminded her of our conversation. She looked at her mother and nodded before she walked over to her to make amends. Hulien started to get out of the car. Emma quickly hugged her, already accepting her and then she went to introduce herself to my son.
"Hey squirt. I'm Emma but you can call me aunt Emma." She whispered to him. Felipe smiled and reached out for her from his seat. She took him into her arms and nuzzled his head before she looked at her sister with a smile. If I hadn't already liked her, this would be the moment that I accepted her into our family.
With my son is his new aunt's arms I walked over to my future mother in law and ex friend. She looked ashamed and full of remorse as I stood next to her daughter. She apologized and I nodded accepting her apology.
"You have every right to hate me but I hope that you can put the past aside for her." I told her. I looked at my beautiful Ella knowing I would do anything to make this right for her.
"I think that can be arranged." Renesmee told me. I saw a glimmer of the girl I used to know and then she came over to me and gave me a hug. Bella also hugged us. I looked at Bella with the same awe I always did. She was the only mother to ever survive. She was hope and love and everything a mother should be which is why her daughter and granddaughters were so amazing as well.
"Thank you." I said to both of them. "Come inside. I'll make you some coffee and cakes." I told them. Renesmee smiled gratefully. I took her arm and lead her inside the house. Hulien and Bella made themselves comfortable in the living room and Emma brought over Felipe to get to know his new family.
"You're so pretty, like grandma Hulien." He said to Bella. Bella smiled at him and took his little hand to kiss it.
"Bella is special just like me and your dad. So is all her family so remember what we told you." Aunt Hulien reminded him.
"I know grandma." Felipe said and rolled his eyes. Emma goggled and I couldn't help but smile. She was just like her sister described.
"He's wonderful." Renesmee told me. I smiled at her.
"He really is. I want you to know that I didn't hurt his mother. She survived, its just that Felipe was growing so fast that we couldn't let her keep him. She was a drug addict regardless." I explained and sighed. I hated talking about this. Renesmee took my hand and I looked at her.
"I know you Nahuel. I already knew that you wouldn't get a woman pregnant just to have a child. You're not your father. You never were." She told me reassuringly. I patted her hand grateful for her words.
"Thank you. You don't know how much it means that you said that." I told her. Ella looked at us and gave me a sad smile. There was a lot I haven't told her about me, about my past. I could see the smile traces of jealousy that her mother knew these things.
"There is much I need to tell you." I told Ella.
"It's a good thing we have eternity." She replied. Her mother took her hand and smiled at her.
"Nahuel is much older. He had a past but that past shouldn't shadow the man he is now." Renesmee told her daughter in my defense.
"I know he's a good man." Ella responded.
"I wasn't always. I tried to be. I always hated killing humans. It wasn't until I met your family that I knew there was another way. I tried Cullen way over and over and just kept failing." I told her ashamed.
"A 150 years is a long time Nahuel." Renesmee said. She used to say this to me before, every time I would go to her humiliated after another failed attempt at being a yellow eyes vampire.
"But its possible. I am just sorry it took loosing you and your family to help me snap out of it." I told her.
"What do you mean?" Renesmee asked me confused. I sighed and told her the truth.
"I thought you were meant for me. When I saw that you and Jacob were mates it was clear to me that fate would never allow a monster to be happy. When I saw I hurt you, when I saw the monster in your eyes when you looked at me… I stopped Renesmee. I haven't touched human blood since." I told her. Renesmee looked at me with tears in her eyes.
"Oh Nahuel. I was just angry. I didn't mean it. I'm so…" I stopped her before she apologized. She knew my story so she knew that her calling me a monster had been incredibly painful for me.
"Don't be sorry. I needed to hear it in order to change. I'm just sorry it had to happen that way. I lost my only friend and the people who I thought would be my new family." I told her. Part of the reason why I loved Renesmee so much was her amazing family. I wanted to be a part of that so badly and I ruined it.
"We are family." Ella told me. She came over to me and hugged me. I looked at her and I couldn't help but smile.
"I really don't deserve you but I am glad I have you." I told her and kissed her temple. It was so much easier to touch her now. I no longer felt ashamed that I couldn't keep my hands off her. Everything that had been brewing between us for weeks had finally culminated and I was never letting her go again.
"Now we just have to tell daddy." She said with s teasing smile. I frowned and Renesmee laughed.
"Don't worry. I already took care of that." Renesmee assured us. Ella kissed my chin and walked over to the living room to talk to Hulien. I looked at her easy conversation with my aunt and I was slightly jealous.
"I don't want to make this difficult for her. Do you think Jacob and I should meet in private?" I asked Renesmee. She smirked.
"Jacob is not a monster and he would be incapable of hurting his Ella through you. He isn't happy but he already accepted you and when Emma phased to show her father that Ella really did imprint on you. You and Felipe were all she could think about when she was a wolf, especially you. Emma told us she was embarrassed she hadn't realized it was you considering all the moments you both had together." Renesmee told me. I quickly shook me head and she laughed.
"I meant loving and tender moments. I know you haven't… Ugh, I can't even say it." Renesmee said with a frowned. Now I laughed.
"You don't know how horrible I felt about that when I thought she was meant for him?" I confessed. Renesmee smiled at me.
"She was. She was meant to be his mother. She already loves him that way." Renesmee said and we both looked at her. Ella was engrossed in her conversation with Hulien but she would often glance at our son and smile.
"Felipe is set on her staying here with us and I don't want to separate us again. Will Jacob be ok if she stayed with me? I have a spare room for her already. I will make sure she finishes school and that she is well fed and happy." I told Renesmee. She gave me a quizzical expression.
"I'm not the one you have to ask about that and neither is Jacob for that matter." Renesmee told me. I looked at Ella again. She definitely was an adult but I was also a father.
Renesmee and Emma decided to go back to the hotel to sleep while Hulien and Bella explored Boston. Ella stayed with us that night and for the first time, I was very nervous.
"I really liked Bella and aunt Emma." Felipe told Ella as she set him into his bed.
"Aunt Emma?" Ella sked him. He giggled.
"Well you are going to be my mom right?" He asked her. I saw Ella's eyes well with tears.
"Yes. I am." She told him. Felipe hugged her wrapping his little arms around her neck. I hugged both my son and my future wife.
"He's gotten ahead of me but I will give you the proposal you deserve when you least expect it." I told her as I let them go. Felipe giggled. We both kissed him goodnight.
"I love you mommy and daddy." He whispered to us before he settled into his bed. If was after midnight so he fell asleep almost instantly.
"I love you too son." Ella whispered. She took my hand and we walked out of our son's room.
"Are you ok with all of this? I know its awfully fast but…" She stopped me with a kiss.
"Its not fast. Its been taking shape from the moment I met you. I already felt like his mom. I wasn't sure, but I kept hoping it was you. I just kept waiting for this imprint to finalize so that you would finally let me in and now you have." She told me. I felt my chest swell.
"I will ask you to marry me, very soon, with a ring, fireworks, and everything you deserve." I promised her. She laughed.
"I think we can do without the fireworks." She told me smiling.
"Fine no fireworks, but until then, would you like to live here with me and Felipe?" I asked her. She nodded and hugged me.
"Absolutely!" She told me. I smiled and I spun her in my arms like I had wished on that say we went to the beach.
"I love you so much." I told her.
"And I love you." She said before she kissed me again.
