Chapter 5
"Is anyone going to answer me?" I demanded. I thought I heard talking and when I looked out my window I was surprised to see Jasmine talking with Paul, Jasper, and Rose. I was even more surprised by the way they were talking. Rose kept calling Paul a dog while Paul referred to Rose and Jasper as leeches and Jasmine was being called a Fairy.
"B," Jasmine started but she stopped. I have never seen her speechless.
"Jasmine, I need to know," I tried to convince her. "I heard the end of your conversation. Why would Rose and Jasper call you a Fairy? And why don't you and Paul seem to like Rose and Jasper? Or vice versa?"
"It's hard-wired into all of us to be wary of the other," Jasmine finally started. "Paul and I get along fabulously because we are mates but normally I wouldn't be able to get along with any of his kind or their kind," she indicated Rose and Jasper at the end.
"Kind?"
"They called me a Fairy because that what I am."
"I am a shapeshifter," Paul spoke up next. "Those of us with the gene shift into a wolf when vampires are around."
"We are vampires," Jasper murmured. Rose was glaring at the ground.
"Ok," I was stumped. I really didn't know how to react.
"Please don't be mad," Rose looked at me and I could see the pleading in her eyes. I didn't know why I would be mad.
"Is that everything?" I needed to be sure so I could process everything.
"Actually, no," Jasmine spoke up. I heard Rose hiss at her but she stopped when I admonished her. "You are also part Fairy. I've been around since you were born watching over you, waiting to be able to integrate myself into your life when you were old enough. I fought to ensure no one would keep me away from you. Fairy's normally stay away from all other creatures baring the occasional liaison with a human and those typically only last a day or two."
"You are saying that one of my parent's isn't actually my parent?"
"Yes and no," Jasmine smiled. "Both Charlie and Renee are your parents. They are the ones listed on your birth certificate and both helped raise you into the wonderful person you are today. But biologically speaking you and I share the same father."
"Who is our dad?" I had to ask.
"I am," I turned to see a tall man with long blonde, almost white, hair and brilliant emerald green eyes.
"Hello father," Jasmine nodded towards him. "I assume mother is well?"
"She is," he inclined his head. "She misses you and wishes for you to visit."
"I'll take that under advisement," Jasmine was being extremely polite and very formal. "Father this is Isabella, Bella our father King Oberon."
"King?" Paul's eyes were almost comically large. I can only imagine what's going through his mind right now seeing as he just found out his mate is a fairy princess.
"So why is this all coming out now?" I was confused.
"Since these other supernatural creatures are trying to claim ownership over you I thought it best to come and take you back to Faery," King Oberon, my dad?, answered me. "You too Jasmine."
"Not happening," Jasmine kept her eyes locked onto our father. "I will never subject Isabella to living in that place, I'll work with vampires before that were to ever happen and neither will I leave my mate."
"I will not allow you to be mated with a shape shifter," King Oberon declared.
"You don't get a say," Jasmine stated. Paul was growling beside her while Rose and Jasper moved to stand next to me. We were all facing my father.
"Why would I go anywhere with you?" I started. "I've never met you and you just come walking out saying your my father. I don't think so."
"Father I think it's best you leave," I was surprised at the dismissive tone she spoke in towards him. "I'll be sure to tell mother I saw you when I speak to her."
After a brief stare down King Oberon left but I had a feeling it wasn't the last we were going to see of him.
"So," I wasn't quite sure what to say but the silence was starting to get to me.
"B, I know this is a lot to take in but I want you to remember I will always be there for you," she paused for a moment and when Rose started to say something Jasmine just kept talking and ignored her. "Because of that the members of Paul's pack will also be there for you. You also have your vampires as well. These two will never want to be permanently separated from you and as much as my natural instincts are telling me to take you far away from them, I know I can't without hurting you more than them in the process."
"Thanks," I hugged her. "I'm so glad to find out you really are my sister. It's felt like that for ages anyways."
"So now you'll accept the Am Ex I've been trying to give to you forever now?" While it was phrased as a question I knew it was more of a demand and her attempt to lighten the mood just a bit.
"Of course," I smiled.
"Now we'll give you some time with your vamps," Jasmine started walking away while pulling Paul with her.
"Babe, are you sure that's a good idea?" I heard him ask while glaring at Rose and Jasper.
"She's as safe with those two as she is with me and you," Jasmine assured him. "But should anything happen to her I won't hesitate to shred and burn you myself, " the glare she sent Rose and Jasper even had me hesitating for a second.
"I swear no harm will come to her," Jasper spoke sincerely to Jasmine while Rose glared back at her.
"So what exactly is my connection to the two of you?" I asked as soon as Jasmine and Paul were in the house.
"Basically we see you as our mom," Jasper answered me. Rose looked like she was scared of what was going to happen next.
"So I get to ground you?" I asked trying very hard not to smile or laugh but when I saw the incredious looks on both their faces I couldn't hold it in. "I'm kidding. I'm not sure exactly what all this means but I figure since I'm a fairy, at least in part, there's no escaping the supernatural and I look forward to getting to know both of you as well as Jasmine's mate. All I ask is that everyone try to get along."
"We'll try," Rose agreed quickly. "Just please forgive us if we slip or make a mistake."
"I'll forgive you as long as you learn from your mistakes," I smiled when both of them nodded in agreement.
"B, I hate to break this up but we should probably get some sleep since we have school in the morning and us fairies need the sleep unlike your vampire children," Jasmine smirked at the last bit.
"We'll see you at school," Jasper agreed.
"Dude, what happened yesterday?" Jared walked up to me. "I know you imprinted but you came back smelling of leeches after visiting your mate. Did the Cullen's break the treaty?"
"No, I have to talk to Sam but the Swan house has to be neutral territory," I muttered. I hated this. My mate, the one person who completes me, is related to leeches in such a way that she will willingly call them family.
"What do you mean?" Sam asked walking up. I knew we had been close to his place but not close enough for him to overhear so he must have been heading our way.
"The short version, my Mate is Fae, Bella is part Fae, and Jasper and Rosalie Hale are Bella's kids," I snorted. "The supernatural is all fucked up."
"So your Mate and Bella stop being friends," Sam suggested but after one look at my face he continued. "Why can't they stop being friends?"
"They are sisters," I grumbled. "They share the same daddy, who by the way is King Oberon himself. Just my luck, my Mate is the Fairy Princess."
"Dude," Jared shook his head while Sam stared at me.
"Well, we'll just have to be civil if we happen to run into those two leeches," Sam started talking. "It's not like we have to hang out with them and become friends."
"Well if I want to see my Mate then I have to hang out and become friends with the leeches," I stared at my Alpha. "And like my Mate reminded all of us last night, Bella is protected by the pack because of their sisterhood."
"Jasmine had no right to speak for the pack in that manner," Sam growled. "As Alpha only I can decree who receives pack protection. As an imprint, your Mate will by default but that doesn't mean we have to accept her family and in this case I think we shouldn't."
"Then you force me to choose between the pack and my Mate," I stated. I could see Sam shaking his head as he realizes what just happened. No wolf would ever choose the pack over their Mate. I had just become a lone wolf.
"Why?" I couldn't help the whine escape my lips for the millionth time since I got home last night. "I love her but I don't wanna have to make nice with dogs. I can handle the Fairy but a two for one deal no way."
"Rosie calm down," I could see how Emmett was trying not to laugh. Of course that just pissed me off as I didn't want to calm down. I was wallowing.
"How would you feel if you found out your Aunt is Fae and your Uncle is a dog?" I demanded of him. For some reason that pushed him over the edge and he started laughing. As much as I wanted to scream and yell, seeing him doubled over laughing I started chuckling as well.
"Babe, they are my relatives now too," Emmett quietly reminded me. His soft, gentle side comes out very infrequently but when it does it makes me fall in love with him all over again.
"I know," I sighed giving him a quick kiss. "I suppose we need to head to school. I don't think mom will appreciate it if we're late or skip."
Emmett smiled and followed me out. I couldn't help the smile that crossed my face as well thinking about my mom and how complete I felt now, even with the few bumps that have also appeared. I suppose the saying 'you can't pick your family' is really true in my case.
"Jazz we're leaving," I call out just slightly louder than my normal voice so he would hear us over Alice's screech.
"I'll catch up," I heard his reply and sent out a wave of sympathy. I felt bad because Alice started in on him the minute we got home last night and hasn't stopped.
"Alice," I tried to interject. "We really need to head out or we'll be late."
"I don't care," Alice continued to glare at me. She had been yelling at me since I got home. First it was about smelling like the wolves and once she found out that Bella and Jasmine are related and Fae she wouldn't stop. "You could be hurt being around that dog. I refuse to let you go anywhere near them. This Bella is bad news."
"Excuse me," my voice had dropped. I had listened all night to Alice about everything but when she decided to try to forbid me from seeing my mom that was the last straw. "Alice you will stay away from Bella and her family, that means Jasmine, Paul, and his pack. You can also expect divorce papers shortly. I will not tolerate anyone in my life trying to dictate who I can and cannot spend time with."
The look on her face showed her disbelief but I choose to leave before she could say anything else. I'm grateful I decided to go with Alice when I first met her as she brought me to my sister immediately and ultimately brought me to my mom but now I'm done. It may take a bit more time before I find my soulmate but I'm willing to wait as I'll have the support of two of the most important people in my life.
I ran quickly to school but realized first period was almost over so I waited out of sight and figured I would slip into second period.
"Rose did you see Jasper yet?" I asked walking into second period. He wasn't here before first and I didn't see him between classes, but that isn't completely unusual.
"No," Rose looked a bit worried as well.
"What happened after you left?" Call it mother's intuition but I just knew something went wrong after they went home last night.
"As soon as we got home Alice started in on Jasper," Rose answered. She looked a little like she was tattling and I could sense the mother-daughter bond I was told about.
"About what?"
"She could smell that we'd been around you, Jasmine, and Paul," Rose sighed. "She was worried about him being around the dog since they are our natural enemy."
"First, his name is Paul and you will start showing him respect," I was firm in that and could see Rose's surprise but ignored it. "Secondly, it was only one and there were two of you, I'm sure if something horrible had happened the two of you could have taken him. Not to mention Jasmine wouldn't let Paul hurt you guys since you are my friends."
"We know that now but when we first went to your place last night we had no way of knowing all that," Rose pointed out. "Also, it's unusual for just one wolf to show up anywhere. Normally they go in groups of two or three just in case they run into trouble."
Before I could say anything else, the bell rang and the teacher started the days lecture. I was worried and didn't take notes as well as normal but knew Rose would let me see hers to get what I missed. I just hoped Jasper was in next period.
I quickly said goodbye to Rose when the bell rang signaling the end of second period and practically ran to third. I couldn't stop my sigh of relief when I saw Jasper sitting at his desk just like any other day.
"Worry and relief?" Jasper asked as dropped into my seat next to him.
"Yeah," I nodded but didn't elaborate. I was still getting used to being a mom to two eternal young adults, who were a century older than me, give or take a decade. Needless to say, I was a bit embarrassed over being worried about my vampiric son.
Fortunately, the teacher started today's class, and I didn't have to talk about my feelings with Jasper. I'm sure he could feel the embarrassment as well by now.
Halfway through class, I glanced over to Jasper and saw a small smile on his face. It made me happy just to see him happy. After class, he escorted me to fourth period but didn't bring up what he felt from me again.
