"Siobhan." I snarled her name like it was dirt. I crouched in front of Alice ready to attack her.

"Tsk Isabella, that is not the way of greeting your sire." Siobhan said while approaching us.

"Get inside." I told Alice without taking my eyes off of the vampire in front of me.

"No, let her stay." And with that, she lunged at me; I met her halfway and we began fighting.

I was growling and trading punches, I managed to land a few good kicks and punch on her, Siobhan, on the other hand could hardly hit me. Out of nowhere I felt something on my back and when I turned around I was met with the snout of Jacob Black. I threw him away when another wolf came and collided with me, sending me through the forest.

I got up quickly and three wolves were surrounding me.

"Oh look, if it isn't the pack of fleas from La Push." I said with a smirk.

The three wolves growled at me and attacked me at the same time. I managed to dodge two, but the third one did strike me on the ribs.

Meanwhile, Siobhan came with Alice on her grip and they climbed a tree.

I was still fighting the wolves but they were gaining the upper hand. I tried to knock them down, but they had the advantage of communicating with each other.

Two of the wolves grabbed both of my arms and Jacob came to me to rip my head apart.

Siobhan joined and grabbed my legs: there was no way I could break free from them. I saw Alice and she had tears on her cheeks. I mouthed an: I love you and prepared myself to die.

Jacob was about to rip my head when three wolves appeared out of nowhere and knock Siobhan and Jacob down. The distraction served me to detangle myself from the other two and I attacked one of the wolves. He tried to finish the job, but he wasn't that strong. We trade a few blows and I managed to grab him from the neck, he started trashing trying to break free. I grabbed his neck and broke it and proceed to drink from him.

Drinking from a shape shifter always gives vampires a lot of strength and not many vampires manage to do this, due to the horrible scent that they carry.

I drain him dry and threw the body away. Jacob and the other wolf were frozen in the spot. The other three wolves were shocked as well and Siobhan had a look of fear on her face.

"Well its' been fun and everything but I got to go. See you all later." Siobhan fled after that.

I turned around and Jacob and the others were gone as well, leaving me with the three wolves that had come to my aid.

"Thanks for helping me Sam, Leah and Seth." I told them while turning around so they could shift back.

Alice came up to me and when she was at arms length, she slapped me and started yelling at me, "How can you be so heartless! How can you kill someone like that?"

"I was only defending myself!" I yelled back.

"No you weren't. You wanted to kill them all and you expect me to love you?" Alice said with an incredulous tone.

I was about to respond when the wolves interrupted our discussion.

"We better head back Alice or your father will start wondering where you are." Sam told her while walking back.

I followed them silently and stayed in the shadows until Alice was safe in her room.

I went to talk with Sam and the others "I wanted to thank you for saving me back there. I know that I don't deserve your aid."

"No you don't, but Bella saved us once and we owe her." Leah responded.

I nodded my head and was ready to leave when Seth stopped me.

"I have a question for you."

I turned around and nodded my head to let him know that I was listening.

"How can you kill people without feeling remorse?"

I smirk in response and answer him, "I don't have to feel remorse, and it's not in my nature. You see, some vampires retain some of their humanity when they are changed. It depends on how you are sired; in my case, I was changed very violently and because of that I couldn't retain my humanity."

Leah gave me an inquisitive look, "But you claim to love Alice. How can you do that if you don't have your humanity?"

I smiled at the thought of Alice and answer to Leah, "When Bella felt in love with Alice, I fell in love with her too. I don't understand how that happened, but, it did and I am very happy for that."

"Yeah, but she doesn't loves you. She loves Bella." Leah said with a glare.

"Bella is gone! Alice has to learn how to love me!" I hissed at them.

"Enough!" Sam said with a commanding tone. "I don't give a shit about your feelings toward Alice. You killed Paul a former pack mate. If you harm anyone I care about I will kill you leech." With that they left me in the forest.

He can try, I am stronger thanks to the blood of the shape shifter, now, I can kill Siobhan.

I walked back towards Alice's house and saw that the lights were out. I listened and Alice was still awake and I made my way towards her bedroom. I enter without making a sound.

I enter her room and she was sitting on her desk browsing her laptop.

"Alice." I whisper.

She let out a startled gasp and put her hand in her heart.

"Isabella! You scared me! Why are you in my room?" She glared at me.

I shrugged my shoulders and gave her a smile, "I wanted to talk with you."

She stood up from the chair and made her way towards her bed. "About what?" She asked me while getting ready to sleep.

"About why Bella had a picture of Siobhan in her room." I said nonchalantly.

She spun around so fast at my topic and I had to smile at that. She looks so cute.

"Explain to me why should I listen to you? Last time I checked you are a manipulative, liar and vicious monster. You killed someone in front of me and yet, you claim to love me." Alice said seething.

I widened my eyes at her speech and took a few steps back, "Easy tiger! I may be a vicious monster but I don't lie. What's the point in lying?"

Alice softened her posture and eyes, "Isabella if you love me that much, why don't you let Bella back?"

I narrowed my eyes at this and in a flash was in front of her. "Your precious Bella is gone! She is not coming back. Alice please give me a chance; I know you can learn to love me."

Alice starts crying and I gather her in my arms and to my immense surprise she hugs me back. I never thought I could be this happy, if there is a heaven is right here in her arms. I stroked her back for a few minutes and she calms down.

"Isabella…I do love you, but I love Bella more." Alice confesses to me.

"What?" I asked her incredulous.

"You heard me! When Bella told me about you. I know I fell a little bit in love with you. But the fact is, that I love Bella more, she is so nice and warmhearted and she likes to help people and redeem herself for everything that you have done!" The last part she said it with a glare directed at me.

I didn't know what to say at that. Alice did love me and, knowing that, gave me a feeling of happiness that I couldn't explain.

"Alice, my beautiful love can I kiss you?" I asked her hopefully.

Alice's eyes widened at my request and she let go of my arms. She started to pace her room and she ran her hand through her spiky locks.

"I can't do that!" She said with a trembling voice.

"Why not? You said it yourself, you love me!" I said while approaching her.

Alice started trembling and I gather her in my arms and without warning I pressed my lips to hers.

Alice, for a few seconds didn't responded to my kiss, but when I started to nibble her lips, she couldn't hold it anymore and kissed me back.

Kissing Alice was the best feeling ever. It was the best aphrodisiac that has ever existed, not even drinking virgin blood could compare to the feeling.

After a few minutes of kissing, she let go of me and when she opened her eyes and realized it was I; she put her hand in her mouth and started crying.

"I think you should leave Isabella."

"I love you." I told her.

"And I love Bella more." I nodded at that and left Alice's room.

I went to Seattle for a few days and I tried to hunt like I did back in the day. I didn't feel any remorse while draining my victims but I couldn't get Alice out of my head.

I went back to Forks and spied on the Cullen's and Alice and found out that Alice's birthday was in two days. I smile at that and I knew what to give her for her birthday.

I went back to Seattle and dialed a number, "I need you to come here in the next hour."

I started to prepare for everything that I needed for Alice's present. The hour passed quickly and the person I was waiting came.

"You called me vampire."

"Yes."

"What is it that you want?"

"I need you to put the soul back where it belongs."

The shaman gave me a surprised look, "Are you sure of that?"

I let out an unneeded breath and nodded my head.

"Very well. I never thought I see the day when Isabella would do something like that. You'll be rewarded by this act."

"Cut the crap witch boy and do the spell quickly." I said with an annoyed sigh.

The shaman gathered all the ingredients and I took the jar out of its hiding place.

"You win Bella; I hope you can make Alice happy and please kick Siobhan's ass for me." I ended with a smirk.

"Everything is ready vampire. Please step in the circle."

I did what he told me and he started chanting; at first I didn't felt anything but, suddenly I felt an immense pain that started in my chest and spread all trough my body. The last thing I thought before losing consciousness was Alice's beautiful face.

Where am I? What the hell happened? Where are the wolves and Alice! My family. I got up with a start and looked around. I walked and there was a piece of paper in a table.

I took it and read it: "You are back Bella. The vampire Siobhan performed a spell that made you loose your soul and allowed your other half to be out." I let out a gasp at this, knowing that if Isabella was here, she probably made a mess of things. "You'll remember what happened in a short time but the most important thing that she did was allowing you to be back, so you could be with your soul mate and because of that selfless act I put a protection in your soul and I'm allowing you to be able to eat human food and drinks. You'll still need the blood to survive. Welcome back Bella."

I sat in the chair and slowly everything came back to me. I remember all the lives that Isabella took, including Jacob's family and that Paul guy.

I started whipping at that, knowing that I couldn't take anything back and dreading my family's reaction at my return.

I went to the bedroom and found another note; it was from Isabella.

"Bella, try not feel guilty for what I did. I needed to do that so we could be stronger to take out Siobhan. The reason I took Jacob's family was for revenge. He tried to end you! He was the one who set me free and as for Paul, well he had it coming for messing with me. You don't remember now but Alice's birthday is today. Go and be with her, she misses you and it would make her happy to see you again. The shaman made sure that I cannot be free again, but I'll always be with you."

I smiled at the note and tilted my head to the side; I know you'll always be with me Isabella. At least now you won't be able to hurt anyone.

With a sigh I left the warehouse and made my way toward the mall, where I was going to buy Alice's gift.

After a few hours I managed to find what I was looking for and after thanking the clerk. I made my way back to Forks and while I was going back, I remember everything: the way Isabella took pleasure in killing all her victims. The way she tortured Rosalie and the Black's. There were other things that she did like turning Siobhan's down and proclaiming her love to Alice. I didn't know what to feel about that. At least she didn't force herself on her.

I arrived in Forks at the evening. I went to my house first; but there was no one there. I searched for them in the forest, but their scent wasn't that strong there, that only left one place: Alice's house.

I made my way toward them and sure enough all of my family was here including Jasper and Rosalie.

I stood there, outside her house for fifteen minutes; Man up Bella! And get inside that house!

I took a deep breath and made my way to the door and proceed to knock.

Alice opened the door and I gave her a tentative smile.

"Hi Ali."

"Bella?" She asked me incredulous.

I gave her a soft smile and nodded my head, "Yes it's me. I'm back."

Alice lunged at me and proceeds to kiss me with a passion I didn't know existed in her. I kissed her back and held her in my arms.

"Oh my love! How much I missed you. I'm sorry for everything. I understand if you don't want to be with me anymore." I told her with a sad look.

Alice just gave me a look, "Bella I love you. I know we need to talk about everything that happened but, can we just enjoy this moment?"

I gave her a loving smile, "Of course."

She pulled me inside the house and everyone let out gasps at seeing me.

Alice squeezed my hand and told everyone, "Its ok guys. Its Bella."

Carlisle gave me a long look and I had to smile at that, if someone could recognize me he is the one.

"Bella!" He screamed and proceeds to give me a hug.

"Hello dad!"

Esme and the others rushed to greeted me. Rosalie and Jasper being the exception and I understood why.

Charlie appeared with the cake and when he saw me, his face became red with rage.

"What the hell is she doing in here?" He screamed and the smile that I had in my face suddenly dropped.

"Chief…" I tried to explain but he put the cake down and pulled out his gun pointing it at me.

Everyone as silent and Alice was afraid of what was about to happen.

"Dad?"

"She broke your heart Alice. I don't want you to be with her. She is not good for you." Charlie said with an angry face.

"You are right Charlie. She is a soulless monster." Jacob said from the doorway.

"What do you mean?" Charlie asked Jacob.

"She is a vampire." Jacob said with an evil smirk.
