Everything belongs to their respective owners

Bella's POV:

I hadn't even been asleep ten minutes when Paul's furious roar woke me. This was beginning to become a ridiculous habit. I groaned getting up and was shocked when Alice came to the door.

"Bella we might have a bit of a situation that irritatingly I can't see the outcome to" She said her voice soothing "Don't panic."

"What is it Alice?" I questioned moving quickly.

Paul almost knocked me over when he raced into the room "Tanya took Noah."

"What?" I shrieked in shock and anger.

"I'm going after her and the pack is already headed out" He continued pushing me to sit down on the bed "You need to stay here and look after Micah." He was very firm "Everything will be ok Bella."

"Paul bring our baby back" I sobbed completely taken aback.

"I will," He gave me a cheeky half-smile "We'll be home before you know it."

Carmine entered the room holding Micah as Paul and Alice left "I thought I would stay here and see if I could be of any assistance to you Bella" She stated simply sitting next to me.

"Thank you" I murmured allowing her to hold Micah for fear I'd drop him I was shaking so badly. I carefully leaned against her, letting tears stream down my face.

"I do very much apologize for bringing Tanya into your home- Eleazar, Kate and I were all eager to come and visit and see of the changes that were rumored to have happened" She gave a soft laugh "And obviously they have- working happily with shape shifters- something I never imagined would have happened. You are a good thing for our species Bella."

"Thanks" I sniffled softly "I don't blame you."

It was actually faster than I could have anticipated that Paul and the others had rescued Noah. "Hush No, honey mommy is right there. I know you want your mommy after that mean nasty person stole you." I heard Paul talking quietly to him as he walked into the room.

I was so glad that I had allowed Carmine to continue holding Micah because without a second thought I had jumped from the bed racing to rip my son from my husband's arms.

"Oh it's ok Noah mommy's here and you're safe and everyone who loves you is here." I muttered between kisses on his head. Paul lifted my chin so I was looking at him and he kissed me passionately.

"I told you I'd bring him home." He chuckled much more relaxed now that both the twins were safe.

"I never didn't believe you" I teased as his hot thumbs brushed the remainder of tears from my cheeks.

I heard a chorus of 'aws' from around us and burst out a choked laugh. "Ok I think the boys need to be fed so if Paul and I could have a few moments?" I asked not tearing my eyes from Noah. He gave an adorable yawn and he latched easily to my chest.

Carmine had handed Micah to Paul and left when I had started speaking and Paul and I were now alone. "Bella please sit down." He insisted and I cuddled up to him like I had been earlier in the day.

"Tell me everything, why'd she take him, how'd you get him back" I insisted holding Paul's gaze. His eyes went from clear to cloudy in milliseconds.

"She said she wanted him to take to Edward" He almost spat Edward's name like it was poison "She loves Edward and Edward still loves you. He wants a baby so she thought if she took him one of your children he would love her instead."

I heard myself let out a growl.

He rubbed his free hand soothingly over my arm and shoulder. "Alice knew the general area she was headed but because Noah is half wolf she can't see him" He continued "We basically circled the area, Jasper made her confused and scared and Rosalie grabbed Noah. The pack then chased her off."

"I can't believe that ass is still controlling our lives!" I moaned extremely ticked off "I wish he would just rot in hell, I used to believe he had a soul, now I think denying it for so long destroyed whatever might have been there."

I extricated myself from Paul's arms and stood rubbing and patting Noah's back softly until he let out a quiet burp and then I laid him in his basinet.

I took Micah from Paul and we quietly talked about happier things while I repeated the process.

"Bella, Esme made you dinner" Emmett called brusquely from the doorway. He grinned at me wild-eyed. You know if I didn't know Emmett I'd be terrified of him and that creepy smile. "Some chicken thing, the two of you better come eat it."

I rolled my eyes but stood and stared at the basinets for a moment. I hadn't even had time to form a sentence mentally when Kate and Alice stood before me large grins on their faces.

"What?" I questioned suspiciously.

"Well we knew you weren't going to want to leave the babies alone again so we took it upon ourselves to go and get you a sling." They said in unison. One word- CREEPY!

"Stand still, we shall put it on you" Kate smiled congenially at me. I could see myself being close friends with this woman and the fact that her sister was a crazy lunatic didn't faze me.

In what seemed like less than a second both my boys were in a sling tied around my torso. I felt a little off kilter but Paul rested a steady hand on my lower back and whispered into my ear "Don't worry I'll never let you fall."

"Thanks guys" I smiled broadly and Paul ran his fingers across my cheek.

We sat and ate a delicious meal with everyone talking quickly around us. I basically sat back and listened to everyone chat.

Emmett, Jazz and Paul were talking about the newborn army and the different strategies used to defeat them. The women except Carmine and Esme were discussing various things but their conversations were going so fast that I couldn't make sense of it. Carmine and Esme were discussing the interior designing aspect of home building and Carlisle and Eleazar were discussing my sons.

I noticed suddenly that Irina hadn't said a word through the whole meal instead glaring at my husband maliciously.

"Irina do you have a problem with something?" I questioned genuinely curious as to the reasons behind her death glare.
