AN 3: This Chapter has been sent to my Beta, but because of real life, it's taking her a little longer to get it back to me. I'll post the edited version when I get it.
Recap:
With that off my chest, I turned to the last of the Cullens, the one who had hurt me the most and wronged others, in the most unforgivable ways. Edward. It was finally time to get my greatest vengeance. It was time to break Edward like he had broken me. Crumble his spirit to dust, strip him entirely of his will to live. Then let the others he had wronged get a piece of him, before he was tossed into the eternal flames.
Chapter 11
BPOV
I had waited for this moment to come around for a whole year. Inside, I was as giddy as a fat kid who gets the last slice of chocolate cake. On the outside, I was calm, cool and collected with my best little sadistic smirk plastered on my face.
"Ah Edward, the man who destroyed me and then literally left me in the woods for the wolves to find; we meet again at last. You know, over the past year I have thought of ways to torture you; make you beg for death before finally granting it. I have run a thousand scenarios over and over in my head; take you apart piece by piece, flame char your perfect face – you know the usual- but then Vickie here gave me a little piece of news that would crush you worse than any torture I could bestow on you. You want to know my dirty little secret… Eddie?" I asked him in a calm, light, but dangerous tone.
"Do your worst. Nothing you say will break me. And maybe if you're a good girl and stop this nonsense, I'll show you what you have missed all this time" he said trying to be seductive.
All I could do was smirk before looking straight in his eyes and letting loose my secret 'destroy Eddie' weapon.
"You helped kill your mate nearly two years ago" I told him calmly, waiting for the reaction I knew was coming.
"What? I did no such thing! I have never killed, or help to kill a woman!" He stated fiercely.
"I never said it was a woman Fruit loop. You didn't even notice the mating bond to him because of your diet. James was your mate. That's why he attacked me; he was jealous that his mate was getting cozy with someone else. That's also why you beat him; he couldn't hurt you. He wasn't a bad guy – err vampire- whatever. He just had the misfortune to be mated with a fucked of veggiepire whose natural mating instinct was muffled. When he first saw you, he knew what you were to him and told Vickie. According to her, he was excited to finally find his soul mate. How does it feel to know that you killed your true mate Princess?" I asked him mockingly.
He was speechless. Utterly speechless. When the information finally fully registered, he crumpled into a heap on the ground, his body shaking with tearless sobs. I felt like I should feel bad for breaking him but, to be completely honest, I was doing a fucking happy dance in my head. I was feasting on his pain thriving on it; I was finally getting my vengeance thoroughly and it felt amazing. Then Eddie went and opened his mouth.
"NO! I don't believe you! He wasn't my mate! I didn't read it in his mind. The only thing in his mind was getting to you!" he cried out desperately.
I just laughed at his patheticness.
"Of course he was only thinking about getting to me. He saw his mate acting possessive and protective over someone who wasn't him. His inner demon was out and only wanted to remove the perceived threat to its mate" I told him, trying and failing to hide my mirth and amusement.
Then, just like that all the fight went out of him. It was disappointing really; I wanted him to attack me or something... sigh… oh well.
"Please. Please just kill me. If my mate is gone then I have no purpose left" he was pleading for mercy, but I would be damned if I gave it to him.
"You won't have a purpose after death either. James wasn't the psycho we all assumed he was; he was just trying to eliminate a perceived threat to his mate. He went straight to the Pearly Gates. You, Eddie will be going somewhere a little warmer; not hell but, all the same, you will never see him again. While you are suffering alone, the Gods will be giving him a new mate; one that is as pure of heart as he is" I told him seriously. "Now, I believe that the Major has a few things to say to you"
With that said I told Mitchell to release the Major as I stepped back, only giving one request to the highly pissed off 'God of War':
"Leave some for Doc Fang and don't touch Alice. She belongs to Vickie." He only gave me a nod before stalking toward Eddie.
Hmm this would be the perfect time to talk to my mate and new sister.
With that I turned and started walking over to my sexy cowboy. Before I got to him, I looked over my shoulder and nodded at Vickie letting her know that it was ok for her to start 'punishing' Alice now.
Let the fun begin.

"Leave some for Doc Fang and don't touch Alice. She belongs to Vickie." Isabella told me before turning and walking toward my Captain.
I didn't like that she gave me an order, but I would let it slide for now seeing as I had a little torturing to do.
Of course, I was a little miffed that Lil Spitfire got to him before I did; she broke him completely with that whole 'you helped kill your mate' speech. Now he doesn't have any fight left in him – and it won't be fun if he doesn't fight back and scream in pain.
Almost as if she knew what I was thinking, Isabella stopped talking with Char, looked up at me, gave me a devilish lil smirk, and said the one thing that would get any mourning mate into a fighting mood:
"Hey Eddie! Just so you know, you may have helped kill your mate, but the Major there is the one who actually threw him in the flames." And just like that I had an enraged Fuckward on my hands.
"Thanks tons darlin" I muttered sarcastically under my breath. All I heard in return was a little giggle; the little minx.
Edward was attacking me wildly; his eyes were black as night and he looked feral. I was thanking God that I had fight training at this moment. I simply dodged his attacks until I got bored. After that I just sent him a whole fuckton of pain and he dropped like rock and started writhing in agony on the ground.
"You didn't actually think that you were going to get away with this did you? You messed with the wrong motherfucker little boy, and now you are going to pay the price. I am going to make you wish you were never born and make you watch as I burn the pieces" I growled out darkly.
Deciding to start with his hands, I knelt down next to Edward, roughly picked up his right hand and proceeded to rip off every single fingernail, slowly to make sure he felt the pain. I put all the nails in my breast pocket to make sure I could find them for burning later then started pulling his hand apart joint-by-joint, soaking up his pain and letting it sate my lust for revenge. When I was done with his right hand, I moved onto his left and did the same thing to it. Next I removed his arms, slowly joint-by-joint.
My last task was going to be my favorite. I slipped the Mind fucker's pants off then ripped his dick off. He howled in agony and started sobbing out his pain. I simply smirked down at him and made him watch as I threw his body parts in the fire and turned them to ash.
Fully sated in my revenge, I turned my back on what was left of Edward and walked over to where Pete, Char, and Spitfire were chatting as if torture wasn't happening right before their eyes.
"Have you some fun there Major?" Spitfire asked me with a little grin on her face.
"I have to say it was quite refreshin' darlin" I shot back at her with a smirk.
"Which part was refreshin'? The 'tear him apart slowly' part or how about the 'undressin him' part or I know, you enjoyed having his puny dick in your hand" She countered, laughing slightly at the last part.
I scowled at her ready to retort when I felt a strong jolt of jealousy come from my brother. That confused me slightly 'cuz we didn't do anythin' for him to be jealous about. I looked over at him and he was lookin' at me and Spitfire intensely. Miss Bella noticed my slightly confused look and turned to see what had caused it.
"Really Cowboy? You're jealous 'cuz of some brother/sister banterin'? You may be my mate, but if you treat me like Fuckward use to, I will burn you. Now, you and I will have some fun time later, but right now I'm talkin' to my big brother who is goin to be my confidant and shoulder in the future when you're bein a dick" by the end of her rant Petey looked properly chastised.
We heard a growl come from Carlisle at that moment, remindin' Spitfire that he was still frozen and not tearing into Eddie-Boy.
"Sorry Papa Incest" Spitfire muttered before she nodded to the black haired male vampire.
In a split second the Doc was unfroze and had run over to what was left of Edward. At that point I lost interest in the situation and turned back to my venom siblings and Spitfire.

"So darlin' what's with all the newborns if you aren't planning a little destruction?" I asked curiously.
Her eyes darkened a bit before answering me. It was kind of eerie and made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
"You left loose ends Major. You all did. I needed the newborns to intimidate y'all and as a stepping point for them to learn strategy and, in this case, surprise attack; how to move as a unit without making a single sound. Don't mistake this army as just that boys… and Char; I care about each and every one of them. I know all of them by name, face, power, and even the sound of their steps. They are all like family to me; like my brothers and sisters, even a child and a nephew. Your loose ends are going to take some of my family away from me and, even though I love y'all to death, I will never forgive you for their deaths" she told us seriously.
"What loose ends darlin'?" I asked confused. I didn't understand what she was talkin about. What could cause that dark look to cross her face?
"Seein the future is a burdin Major" she replied cryptically. "It's even worse when the future you see is definite; when you know that no matter what you do, someone you love is going to die… it's a burden that I did not fully appreciate when I 'copied' it from Kaytlin. No matter how hard I train them, some of them will perish. When you three were is the Southern Wars, you saw newborn vampires as simple fodder, as a shield between you and the other newborn army. They were just a number to you; as soon as your Mistress deemed them 'beyond usefulness', you destroyed them without a thought. They were even starved at times to 'motivate them' to fight harder cuz they knew they could feed after. My newborns are always kept well fed; they always have clean clothes and are never abused as a punishment. They are punished by removal of a limb, but never a major one. If one of them attempts a mutiny, they are put to death. Vickie and I are fair to them, and they respect us as a consequence." By the end of her speech I was still in the dark about why she was telling us this and what loose ends she was talking about are.
"That's nice kitten, but the major was wonderin what loose ends we left" Pete asked when he noticed me getting frustrated.
"Well, Cowboy, when you and Char over there rescued the Major from the South, you forgot one tiny, little, gigantic problem. No? Still lost?" I could feel her irritation skyrocket at this point. "Maria, you half-wits! You left her alive. Now we are going to have to deal with her along with her massive army. When I say massive, I am talking about 100-125 newborn vampires plus Maria and her new Major, who is also her true mate. That makes this more dangerous because she is going to fight harder in order to keep herself and her mate safe" she explained.
All three of us were frozen in shock. How could we have been so stupid? We were all so concerned about getting the fuck outta dodge that we didn't account for Maria eventually comin after us.
"We're real sorry sug'. At the time we were just worried about gettin the Major, and ourselves, outta harms way" Char apologized softly, looking at Miss Bella with regret and remorse shinin in her eyes.
"As I said, I love y'all as family already and that aint gonna change, but I won't forgive you for the lives that are gonna be lost in the fight against that crazy bitch" Bella replied back just as softly, with only a slight edge to her voice.
"Wait. Now kitten, how do you plan on housin and keepin track of all these newborns?' Pete asked the question we were all thinkin.
She just smirked that damn smirk before tellin us somethin that finally cemented it in our minds that she had spent a year plannin everything out for the future; including this lil ambush and up through after Maria's downfall.
"Vickie and I robbed a few banks around the world while creatin our army so we could afford to fund our operation. After I 'copied' Kaytlin's future seeing power, we started going to Vegas and winning money through gambling. We used a fraction of the funds to buy the entire Peninsule D'Ungava in Quebec Canada. Then we cleared the area of humans by startin a rumor that a deadly disease was spreading through the area – we even had bodies to prove it. Humans are so scared of dying that they fled like the devil himself was chasin them. Anyway, once we got the humans out, we started building. It was actually the perfect way to train the newborns strength. In the center of the peninsula we built headquarters. This will be where all our war meetin's will be held and where the 'Big Dogs' rooms are located. Since humans are pretty scarce in the area, we turned what would be the basement into a giant freezer, where we have enough blood stocked up to feed us for about a year. If we run out, then we can run to the nearest big city or just rob a blood bank" We were all starin at her, too stunned to speak, but she wasn't done yet. "We also have special heating receptacles so that we don't have to drink cold blood. We even have maps detailin everythin. Now that's just headquarters. Within a 3 mile radius of that building, we built 4 giant lodges that can hold 20 vampires each, a smaller house for what's left of the Cullens to live in, and even a few cozy cabins that will be used as retreats for any mates formed within the ranks. Don't worry about your own privacy though. Each of the 'higher ups' rooms are sound proof to even vampires." None of us could speak. We were all just starin at her in awe; even Esme, Rose, and Emmett looked away from Carlisle torturing Edward to stare at her.
"What? I told you, this war with the cunt licker is going to be massive and I want it on our terms. We have big bodies of water on either side at that location so she can only come at us from one side, limiting her ability to ambush us." We all just nodded dumbly.
"How did you do this all in a year darlin'?" I asked her, unable to hide my amazement.
"I didn't. It was mostly Vickie's idea. I'm the strategizer, but she's the one who comes up with the ideas to base my strategies off of. When you have vampire speed and strength along with 78 newborns at your disposal, you kind of get things done faster" she explained to us with fondness directed toward her creator and sister.
I just nodded my head and turned back toward the 'Carlisle and Edward' entertainment, getting lost in my own thoughts about everythin Spitfire just told us.
AN: forgot to mention in earlier vhapters that the denalis fled like little wussy bitches after reading the note bella left them.
