I'll only come out if you promise to not throw things at me for being so late. Okay good? No projectiles aimed at me? I'm sorry for how late this chapter is. Exams and results got in the way and I have been really stressed at the moment. I always see these messages from authors asking for forgiveness so I know it won't be met ver well haha. Thanks to Create the Great for kicking me in the ass and getting me in gear. I'm feeling the ending to this story is coming in the next six chapters. So bear with me till then please :)

As always Stephanie Meyer owns all of Twilight. If I did then I would treat them way better than her. Just saying.

My fist smashed into Edward's face again, creating a massive crack in his forehead that I had decided I wouldn't let heal. Just before the crack sealed I routinely brought another punch into his traitorous head. Soon I would have to actually start asking questions otherwise Charlie would take over the interrogation.

It was true that I am using Edward to vent my anger at what Alice had said. Considering why she got so upset in the first place, beating Edward to a pulp was probably a bad idea. But to Hades with it! This slug was the cause of all this. It astounded me how quickly things had escalated. All I did was dismember her brother, Alice is acting like I kicked her favourite puppy.

I cracked my fist down into his skull one more time with a satisfying cracking sound. Happy with my work I slumped down in the chair facing the traitor.

Despite all the feelings Alice instigated in me, I still loved her. The butterflies in my stomach still fluttered whenever I thought of the girl. And I'm pretty sure she felt the same. Judging by the quick nervous looks we gave each other. Then again that could be down to awkwardness. Urgh! It's been a week and we are already on the rocks. Things were soooo much simpler without a mate. But don't get me wrong! I would never go back. I love her.

But her brother...not so much.

I stalked up to him. The fear in his eyes causing a good feeling to spread throughout my body. "You, Deadward, have been a sniveling, two faced, sparkly assed worm from the day I met you. Tell me why you did it, and I'll make your punishment easier. If not then I'll cut off your hair and you'll be bald for eternity." I got scissors from the side of the room and snipped them suggestively.

He snorted. "I would never tell yo-". I quickly grabbed his hair and placed my scissors dangerously close to his roots. "I'll tell you! I'll tell you! Oh god please stop I'll tell you everything!" He screamed at a pitch that would most likely have killed a dog.

Smirking I sat back down and waited. "When you're false gods locked me up, they made the mistake of leaving me alone with Persephone. She has hated them for her entire existence. Hades practically kidnapped and forced her into a life she doesn't want to live. Three thousand years is a long time for a grudge to grow. I sympthazised with her and she helped me escape. And now with the backing of the Volturi, she will strike down your pretender gods and most importantly, you." He held this crooked smile he probably thought was intimidating, to me he just looked like a twonk. "As for my 'family', I don't care for them anymore. We pretend to be human when we clearly are not. Persephone showed me that. We fight to control our own nature, to try and fit into a human society because we can't accept the fact we are monsters. Lately it's been apparent I am not the favorite child anymore. A decade ago you would have been killed on the spot if I requested it. They aren't loyal enough anymore".

"Do you know how much hassle your family has given me just to keep you alive after this interrogation? They love you and I honestly don't see why. Anyway, why would you tell me all of this so easily? Not even you would spill that for a few precious hairs on your head."

"Because either way you can't beat her army. You could know all the facts and still not be able to defeat her vampires." He couldn't be trying to trick me, his arrogance was showing again.

"What did she do to those vampires? Their strength was incredibly enhanced. No way were they natural."

"Old magic. Well that's what she said anyway. I'm pretty sure it could be explained scientifically but she seemed tiffed off whenever I tried to." Edward drifted off.

"Charlie will continue your interrogation. You're a traitorous bastard Edward. You've put your family through so much and I wouldn't be surprised if they don't feel so lenient on how we treat you after all this." And with that I left the room to tell me news to Poseidon.

Alice POV

I hadn't spoken to Isabella since our fight. The whole trip home was spent in silence with pent up anger. I couldn't believe she did that to Edward. He may have betrayed us for Persephone, but if they are mates then who am I to judge? I would definitely leave my family if it were either them or Isabella.

Speaking of her, I feel dreadful. I realized my words were a bit over exaggerated. But my emotions were all over the place. The entire trip was meant to be a rescue for Edward in my mind. And seeing him kissing the goddess literally broke me. He was family after all. And family love is forever. I just wish Bella didn't rip my brother limb from limb.

I love the girl. I always have. Since waking up in a dark forest with tiny animals peering at me through the darkness, she has been the one. My first vision was of her and it just felt...right. She was beautiful. She made me feel safe. Nearly a century later and those feelings hadn't left. When I thought she had rejected me it was like a stab to my dead heart. I can't have that feeling ever again, I need to find her and apologize.

I ran out of my room and into the the lounge, expecting to find my mate. Although that apparently was easier said than done. Her scent was weak and I couldn't follow it. Looking into her future did little help either as the vision only showed her talking to the god Poseidon about what she had beaten out of Edward. She hasn't decided to speak to me so I'll just have to wait. Spotting Esme in the lounge I ungracefully flopped down beside her.

"Hello dear, are you feeling alright? You're not one for flopping." Her motherly affection drew me in and I couldn't help but sigh as her arms enveloped around me.

"Bella and I had a fight." I huffed into her chest.

"Oh Alice, even the best of couples occasionally have a spat. What was it over?"

"Edward." I grumbled my brothers name.

"I don't follow dear. Does Isabella have feelings for him?" Esme's confusion made me gag a little on the inside.

"God no. When we found him I was mad yes, but he was my brother for almost a century. You can't just instantly turn off feelings for someone like that. I was already upset about her caring more for her job than me and then the way she treated him was too much for my jacked up emotions and I...I let them get the better of me. It was an over reaction on my part and I need to apologize to my mate as soon as possible. I love the girl Esme. She should of come first, not my brother."

"We all make mistakes Alice, I'm sure Isabella will understand once she's calmed down." Esme cooed. With my mother's advice, I walked up the stairs and made my way to my room waiting for Bella to return. Turns out it was the other way round as when I opened my door, I found the girl sitting on my bed staring straight at me. What's the point of having heightened senses if I can't use them?!

"Alice-".

"Before you say anything I just want you to know I'm sorry for everything! I over reacted and I was just so scared of losing you when I JUST got you. Please forgive me, I'm so not worthy-". I was cut off as I felt her

warm lips meet mine. The gasp I was about to release was lost as her tongue seemed entrance into my mouth.

Oh. My. God.

I thought blood was the best thing I would ever taste. Nothing compared to the feeling that overcame me. The nereid broke away and looked me in the eyes.

"Alice honey," Flashbacks to Esme are not what I want right now. "You do not need to ask for forgiveness. If anything it is I that should be rambling about how not worthy I am. Since the moment I've met you I've put so much stress onto you. Mates are meant to do the exact opposite. The thing with Edward went too far, I was just so pissed that he was hurting you and you still thought of him as family."

"Bella don't. I too over reacted, I've just waited so long for you and I stupidly thought your job to be getting more attention than I am. I got jealous of a job...that's a new low, even for me!" She laughed and stared into my eyes. "Can we just...both admit we were over reacting? Kiss and make up?"

He eyes sparkled and a sly grin spread across her face. "I think I can do that. For such an adorable pixie." Once again our lips met and we drew as close together as possible. Smiles were plastered on both our faces and we slowly sped up our pace. The only thing I could think of was how I was gonna show her exactly what an adorable pixie could do.

Okay that's that one done. Thoughts? Questions? General criticism that doesn't involve physically hurting me? Till next time young ones :)
