Angel P.O.V

I couldn't help the moan that escaped my lips as Emmett pulled me closer. I felt something strong run through my chest. I think I had come to love this vampire. With wicked intentions of teasing I moved from Emmett's lips down to his neck biting down laughing as he growled yanking me against him. I could feel his hand slid down my back settling on my rear. With a grown I pulled away.

Suddenly I no longer felt like myself something had changed. Something felt primal. As his hand ran over my chest I held his palm over my heart, over my clan mark. Moving my other hand I rested it over his non-beating heart. Leaning up I have him a quick kiss before whispering.

"Is brea' liam ma cheann fein agus ni hamnain go deo." (I love you my one and only forever.)

"What does that mean?"

Before I could answer a fire shot through my body to my chest so fast it made me cry out in pain. My hands gripped at my chest as my legs started to give out.

I could feel Emmett's cold arms catch me before my senses left me.

Emmett P.O.V

As Angel muttered the strange words something in my chest unclenched, as if I was finally able to breathe.

"What does that mean?"

I waited for her answer but was startled as she cried out in pain.

"Angel?" When her hands grip her chest I saw her legs give out. As I caught her up in my arms I yelled toward the house.

"Carlisle!"

Within a second he was at our side checking Angel's pulse. "What happened?"

"I don't know she just cried out grabbing at her chest before passing out."

Suddenly I heard a car pull up 'oh great her uncle and aunt comes now!'

I was surprised they were at her side with vampire speed.

"What happened?"

"I don't know she cried out grabbing her chest be..."

"She grabbed her chest?" I watched as her uncle's eyes change.

"Yes."

Cassie took off her jacket an laid it over Angel. I looked to Edward thinking. 'What are they doing?' I saw his eyes shift to Matt before I looked back at Angel.

"NO!"

I look up at Edward's voice to see Matt pull out a knife moving it toward Angel's chest. Quickly reaching out I grabbed his wrist.

"What are you doing?"

Matt glared "I won't hurt her. I'm going to just cut her shirt."

Glaring at him I released his hand. I could see Jasper slightly crouched ready to pounce. Looking back down I watched Matt cut her shirt to expose some of her chest. My eyes widened at the stylish symbol on her chest.

"Matt! How can she be in the void already?"

"I don't know. She's coming into her birthright sooner then expected."

I saw the symbol was slightly glowing. "What birthright?"

Cassie continued looking at Matt. "What do we do?"

"We need to move up the clan meeting. Get everyone here tomorrow."

I've had enough of being ignored. I pushed on Matt's shoulder. "What the hell are you talking about? An What is wrong with Angel."

"It's no buisness of yours."

Cassie's head jerked up. "Matt! He has a right to know. "When Matt said nothing Cassie looked at Emmett. "She is in what we call the void. We enter it twice in our life. Once when we come of age..."

I had to stop her. "What is the void?"

"It's a type of vision quest."

"So for her to be in the void she had to come of age or..."

"We believe that the death of her mother is causing her to come into her birthright sooner."

Carlisle looked up. " But you said there was two reasons. Could the other not be a factor?"

Matt sighed "No it's impossible for her to do that."

Cassie looked at me. "The second reason is when we bond an perform the binding ritual."

I froze. "When that happens do you say some strange language?"

Matt and Cassie's eyes shot to me. "She spoke a strange language?"

"Yes."

Cassie placed her hands on my shoulder. "Emmett this is important tell me everything that happened."

"Everything?"

"Everything!"

"Well we were kissing then she said she had feeling for me and I told her I had feelings as well. Then she held my hand on her chest placing her other hand on mine before whispering the strange words."

I could see Cassie was pale. "Do you remember any of the words?"

"A couple... Is brea lion mom fun something and I am probably saying them wrong."

"Oh goodness."

"What?"

Matt looked around at my family before looking back at me,

"She bonded with you."

"What?"

"Those words an her actions were the bonding ritual." he looked to his wife. "Though it is unheard of being done before becoming of age let alone with a vampire." He looked back at Angel. "There are quite a few firsts with her."

"So she'll be alright?"

"Yes she'll sleep through the night."

Alice walked up an smiled. "Can she stay here tonight? We can make sure she's ready for the trip."

I hold back a smile as Matt raised a brow. " You know she is suspended."

"Yes but I also know you talked the principal into letting her go tomorrow an continue her suspension afterward."

"How?"

Carlisle laughed " You'll never win with Alice."

Cassie smiled. "She can stay but first lets get her inside and changed."

Before anyone could say anything more I stood with Angel in my arms.

Walking inside I lead her Aunt up to my room putting Angel in the bed. Alice and Esme appeared Alice holding shorts. "She can wear this."

Getting the idea I handed her one of my shirts before Cassie and Esme kicked me out in order to change her.

"Emmett can you come downstairs."

'Well here we go. Time for the talk.'

Angel P.O.V ~The Void~

I looked around the place in which I stood having no clue how I had got there. I looked down at myself to groan at seeing I was wearing a flowing dress. Well it wasn't so bad it felt comfortable at least.

"Angel."

I froze at the voice I have not heard in a month. I turned tears instantly coming to my eyes. "Mom!"

I ran to her hugging her breathing in her rosy scent that was my mother. "Mom I have missed you so much."

"Oh my beautiful girl... I am so proud of you."

"What have I done to make you proud."

"Your strong. Stronger then anyone in our clan."

"Mom where am I?"

My mother lead me to a bench an sat down. "There is much I need to explain to you sweetie."

"I'm all ears."

"You are in the void sweetie. I spend your whole life trying to keep you from having to come into the life if you didn't want to. I knew that people like Tanner would want to hurt us. There are always some who crave power more then anything."

"Uncle Matt told me us having powers was in the family."

"There are so many things I wish I told you before I was taken from you."

"You can tell me now."

"So much of it I can't tell you you have to learn it alone... But I am here to help you through the void."

"Why?"

"You entered the void before you turn 17. But you entered for both reasons. You will come into your birthright after you awake..."

I looked up "What about before... When I was with Emmett."

My mother smiled "Emmett Cullen... Now that is the young man I always wanted you to be with. I know he will protect you and watch over you."

"But I remember it felt like something took over me."

"It did sweetie. You see we have one person we are destined to be with and when we meet then and once our feelings are made known we have the urge to bond with that person to be connected with them."

"So the strange feeling that took over was normal."

"When we meet our mate yes."

"But how do I know if Emmett is the same. How do I know if I am his mate?"

She smiled "Sweetie you spoke the ritual words they can only be said if both are in love."

I smiled at my mother as she ran her fingers through my hair. "Oh my baby girl is growing up."

I felt like I was a little girl again an I laid my head in my mothers lap as she stroked my head.

"Now my sweet child close your eyes and think of your strong vampire mate."

Doing what my mother said I closed my eyes an images of Emmett swam through my head. As my mother's humming helped me drift off to sleep.

Marielle P.O.V

I looked down at my daughter as she slept on my lap. I could never tell her how proud I really am at her. She has been so strong. I loved looking into the viewing pool to keep my eyes on her. An I must say I loved seeing her so happy with the young Cullen boy.

But as my hands ran through her hair I felt a presence I knew all to well. Looking up I saw the man standing among the trees leaning against one watching us.

My eyes narrowed at his. "You better not hurt our daughter."

I watched him slowly nod before he disappeared. Looking down at my daughter the tears fell from my eyes. "Please forgive me my baby girl for the lies I have told you."

Leaning down I kissed her forehead before smiling as I watched as she left the void.
