Chapter 2

Emmett's POV

It wasn't hard to imagine what had happened here. The bed sheets were a mess and the room reeked of the mutt that barged into our house today. And then there was the blood. In amongst the sweat and other bodily fluids, was blood. Bella's blood. Admittedly there wasn't much but any at all was worrying.

"What happened in here?" My wife asked through gritted teeth.

Charlie coughed awkwardly. "Bells had a visitor late last night." He informed us. "It happens with runaways all the time. They say goodbye in their own way." He explained, clearly not fond of the topic. "Didn't even know she was dating the kid," the chief mumbled under his breath.

"Look," the old man began. "I can't file a missing persons report until she's been gone for a few days. Do you have any idea where she could have gone?" The desperate man all but begged.

We searched the room from top to bottom but all we found was missing clothes, she was not intending on returning.

"What have you found?" Carlisle asked us all as we gathered with the pack and the family to combine our knowledge and find the girl who was like family to us.

"Jacob was right," Esme began politely. "Her trail goes dead after a while. But it is too well hidden, that was deliberate and done by an expert. Bella could not have done that."

"Do you think she was abducted?" One of the mutts asked.

"It's likely," Jasper agreed. "But it would not surprise me if she went willingly under threat of her father's life. She's done it before."

"There is one thing the dog left out," I spoke up angrily.

"Emmett," my parents scolded as the wolves growled but I ignored them all.

"He forgot to explain why her room was drowning in his scent." I said, locking eyes with the mutt in question.

Jacob shrugged. "So what," he began. "We slept together, it's no secret. Bella chose me, I told you all that. Not that it's any of your business."

"And the blood on her sheets?" My wife demanded.

"It was her first time," the mutt explained. "It happens."

"It does not!" Edward growled at him but Carlisle immediately gained control of the situation.

"It's a common misconception," he explained. "If done right bleeding can be avoided. But that is irrelevant at the moment," my father insisted. "What matters right now is finding Bella."

We all hesitantly agreed.
