AN : I love all the review and favorites as well thank you so much ! The last chapter was different for me being all from Jaspers POV. I don't like stories that have chapters that over lap in different POVs so I will be trying not to do to much of that. This chapter tells some of the last from Bella but its becauseI feel that it important to know how she feels after J's moms passing.

Bella POV

As I lay in the sand with my eyes closed next to the man who has become my number one care in life I think about how much we needed this break. The last month has been crazy with everything and everyone that this time out for just the two of us between my family and the Cullen's the business was handled and Jasper and I could check out for a while before everything gets crazy for the wedding.

"Jasper have you noticed that Rose has been acting different ?"I ask him.

He chuckled "Yeah I did right after mom passed but I chalked it up to us losing mom. But now it seems that is may be something else."

I have noticed over the past couple of months that Jasper is very observant and I guess that comes with then territory of his life and how we were both raised. I could believe that we would not have Diane at our wedding Jasper seemed as though it did not hurt that his mom had passed but I was affected women in this life are supposed to be off limits there are rules and someone who didn't follow them was dangerous to our whole lifestyle.

Our beach getaway was great up until the point that Jasper brings up my ex. " I am not trying to piss you off Bella but we need to discuss him. He is a present threat and I am afraid that he has been watching you for quite awhile. I had the guys go to his apartment and he has photos of you taken from far away since you moved to Chicago." I gasp I never thought I would see hide nor hair of him again I thought that messing with my family would be to much for him he had slapped me once and I pulled my gun on him. I had never told Papa because he would have never took another breath.

"Where do we go from here Jasper? He is dangerous he stalked me after we broke up in New York it was one of the reasons I was so determined to move away." I am almost winded and realize that I said all of that in one long exhale. I am still afraid of him he never really hurt me but his stalking was scary and I think that maybe I should have told Papa and this would not be a problem now.

" I think that we should change our wedding plans love I think that he wants to ruin our day and take you from me and I can't have that." I think for a second as long as my dad can be there then I don't care when and where we get married this is about him and I starting our life together.

"Okay Jasper I think that is a good idea why wait until June this is about us and no one else. What do you think about March 3rd?"

We called Gianna to tell her of our plans of canceling the wedding in June entirely and that we would no longer need her services. She was quite angry I could hear it in her voice but like the smart woman she was she kept it to herself. I then called Esme to ask if she would lend her talents and connections to help us pull this shindig off and to tell her to tell no one outside of the family. We spent the day sorting our wedding to be moved up and only the most important people to know. We were heading home in a couple of days and going back didn't seem like much fun as it was currently sunny and almost 90 degrees here and snowing in Chicago. We spent our days while on the island wading in the warm water, laying on the beach Jasper reading to me in his sensual timber, or just playing running up and down the beach chasing each other like children. At night we would cook our meals, dance to the music on the stereo, and laying around holding each other the drive to just make love is driving me crazy if I do say so. But we both wanted to wait until the wedding it was something that we wanted to do right.

I never thought that a mafioso who was raised to be just that would be such a caring loving man but he was. He would hold me and read to me at night with all the windows open to the sounds of crashing waves. I loved my life in Chicago the city, noise, lights and for the most part the people. But here in this moment I never wanted to go back I wanted to lay in his arms in the balmy tropic air and waste away.

Jasper wakes me early on our last morning here with a kiss and soft whispers "Bella baby wake up we need to start getting ready to go." He is sitting next to me fully dressed with his hair pulled into a low pony tail smiling at me.

" I am not ready to go back" I say low and almost pleadingly we will have to go home and deal with the repercussions of taking two weeks away from our responsibilities and that means playing catch up.

Jasper wants me to start working in his private organization and get familiar with it because as the CEO wife I will be helping Rose manage it. Jessica asked me if I was okay with quoting my job moving in with Jasper and working where he told me to, and I knew what this life came with I knew what was expected of me. Jasper told me that I could go back to work somewhere else if I wanted or help Rose run the private organization or not work at all if I wanted. The thought of working somewhere else was not appealing and I liked the private organization idea it helped battered families get fresh starts.

On the plane ride back Jasper turned on his computer and started his catching up. My papa had left a voicemail telling me that everything was okay and that he was going back to NY to take care of somethings and that he would see me soon. I would have to be on my toes when we got home if I was to be safe.

Jasper POV

I had checked my voicemail on the way home and we have him when we get home I will rip him to pieces.

? POV

I now have to look for a place to run to Jasper will know that it was me that killed his mother and he will come after me with everything he has. That will be my opportunity if I can get the O'Mays on my side tell them what I know about t he Whitlock's and get them to go to war I will get her she will be mine and he will be dead. I approach the bar that I know for a fact is owned by the O'May clan. I can tell them many things and as always information sells. I walk in and find Peter O'May the bosses son sitting at a table in the back. As I walk back his guys stop me and search me I comply and tell them I have valuable information for their boss. I sit down across from Peter and he looks at me expectantly, "I have information on the Whitlock's that could be valuable to you in exchange for protection."

Peter stares at me "You have nothing more than things I already know, schedules, living quarters, warehouses. I know all of these things you are not a privy member to them I always have people watching them and intern you for last few months." The chill in voice makes me think that this is a trap he knows something that I don't. I stand up to leave and his guy grabs my shoulders and slams me in the chair.

" You will be going no where except with Jasper Whitlock when he arrives. See you made a grand mistake you killed a wife and a dons wife at that we maybe criminals but we have rules and respect. I have already reached out to Jasper's family and Mr. Swan will be here any moment to pick you up."

With that Peter snuffs out his cigarette and raises from the table patting my head as he passes. If I get to see her she will not let him kill me she loves me and if her father is there then she has no reason to fear him. Maybe this will work out to my benefit in the end.
