A/N: This was a challenge given to me by Aunt Bell so this is dedicated to her and her weird mind for wanting this :P

Disclaimer: I do not own anything twilight related.

Previously,
Giving Bella a kind sad smile, I stood, holding my hand out for her to take. The forest was getting dark and Huilen and I had to hunt.

"Let's head back, it's getting dark and both my aunt and I need to hunt." I tell her my thoughts, her brows pull down into a frown, but she nods grasping my hand in hers as we walk towards the cabin.

How she got this far out wads beyond me, but I was telling the truth about how hard it was to find her, she had made a circle and sat smack dab in the middle, something a vampire does on their land. If she's doing this now, unintentionally, what will she be like when changed?

Bella POV

"I'll be back soon Bella, just give me a yell if you need me, I won't be far" Nahuel tells me softly from the door.

"I will, now go, enjoy the uh food" I tell him awkwardly, he was going to try the animal diet out of curiosity. I had a feeling he wouldn't like it and surprisingly that didn't surprise me as much as it should have.

Chuckling he shakes his head "Maybe" and then he was gone.

I was surprised and still am to learn that Nahuel still had to consume blood to live, not all the time but still had to have some, though why it surprises me is beyond my knowledge. He is a half vampire and in turns makes him blood hungry.

I knew they would be, well I knew Nahuel would be within screaming distance, he said he wanted to try animal blood. I told him he didn't have to but he was curious, so I am here rummaging for food, there was no fridge and all there was to eat was fruit and some other cupboard snacks. With a shrug I grabbed some oranges and apples, moving them to the board I started to cut them up and ate them as I went.

Fruit was all that you could eat, besides all the small cupboard food but there was little to none. I assume and thinking back on Serena she ate very little and a lot of fruit with yoghurt or honey. She always at an abundance of it every few days or so, along with chocolate snacks, I always wondered why she never got sick too and now I guess I knew why.

With a sigh I moved to the small table and sat down, thinking of all Nahuel had said to me. I wanted so desperately to believe what he said was true and deep down I knew, but all the things that have happened to me, all the pain and heartbreak, well it messes with a girls mind.

But I will try, I can't allow myself to give up the chance at love and if that is with Nahuel, a man so handsome and who makes me feel like a damn princess, then I will try. I will do it for my future, to be happy once more.

Thunder clapped in the sky causing me to jump, quickly as I could I close the windows, sealing them shut with the latch, there was no glass but hopefully the shutters could keep out as much rain as possible. The air was humid causing me to sweat as I moved in the house, biting my lip I was at war with myself as I look at the draws that held Nahuels things.

With a sigh I raided his draws till I found a simple black cotton singlet, holding it to my face I calmed a little, and his fresh woodsy and oncoming rain scent made my mouth water and knees weak.

Quickly I take off my sticky shirt and chuck his cool one on, a sigh of relief hits me as a cool breeze hits my flushed skin from the cracks in the shutters.

I felt weird wearing his things considering I am still just a stranger to him, but it was hot and my comfort comes first at the moment before what he would think. I had learnt that thanks to my sister, she told me if I keep letting other people's problems in front of my own I will never be able to be myself.

A crack of lighting caused me to jump and yelp, cursing as I kicked something in the dark. I knew it was bleeding because I could feel it and smell it in the air. Gagging a little I stumble towards the kitchen area to find a towel or something to wrap up the wound with. Finally after a few minutes of blind searching I found a small facecloth and with a wince held it to my toe.

Though not soon after my whole body froze as I felt the air tense, slowly looking over my shoulder and squinting into the dark, my eyes widen and a scream lodges in my throat as a flash of light fills the room seeing the hungry eyes of a vampire not very far from where I was sitting. My hand grasping my toe tightly as I could in my fear, my body shaking with it.

It was a female, her eyes black and hair honey brown that flowed down to her hips, teeth bared and body coiled ready to spring. Her form was soaking wet and her clothes clung to her like a second skin.

"You smell gooood" she purrs, venom dripping from her lips, her body springing like a coiled spring releasing from its hold.

"NAHUEELLLL!" I manage to scream out as her teeth pierced through my neck like butter. Her claws digging into my back as she grasps me tightly, I tried to escape but knew it was futile. The world swirls around me as it begins to blacken, the smell of rust and salt from my blood running down my chest and back.

Blinking several times as the world slowly began to darken I saw Nahuel's drenched form and enraged dark eyes as a mighty roar escaped his lips.

I'm sorry Nahuel… I'm so sorry… I thought sadly as a sob broke through my throat and then nothing but darkness surrounds me.

A/N: sorry that it is so short guys, I have been stuck on every damn story it's not funny.
