Edward's POV
I helped a drunk Isabella into bed. She was passed the fuck out. I hated to leave her, but my father requested my presence immediately. I wouldn't leave her completely unguarded. Aro and Esme were on the way to stay with her while I met with my father.
"Hello brother." Esme greeted me walking in with takeout.
"Hello sister. Save me some of that." I said taking a big whiff of the food. I hadn't eaten much today and my stomach was growling.
"Sure thing." She smiled at me.
I greeted Aro with a handshake.
"Thanks for coming over, man."
"I know how it is when the old man calls." He smirked at me.
I grabbed a breadstick on my way out the door and drove quickly to my parents' house. I was anxious to get this over with so I could get back to Isabella.
"Edward." He looked up as I walked in his office.
"Ciao Padre." (Hello Father.)
"We need to discuss recent events." He motioned for me to sit.
I sat down directly across from his desk. He reached in a drawer and pulled another rock glass out, pouring me a scotch along with topping his off.
"Frank is up to something. We've told you all that's not where we left him." I began before he waved his hand to silence me.
"Edward, I'm not worried about what Marcus thinks or says. He is not thinking clearly these days. Carlisle isn't much better. He thinks he can run a full time medical practice and this family. He is insane. We'll get to that soon. First we must discuss the situation with Isabella."
Hearing her name in that tone made my whole body tense up.
"What situation with Isabella?"
"You know what I mean. Family ties." He raised his eyebrows.
"Her mother won't be a problem at all. I was hoping to bide my time until she was eighteen so a guardian wouldn't be an issue."
"Her father is the issue, son. How are we supposed to take over with your girlfriend's dad being a cop? No one will respect that and it will put even bigger marks on our backs. She knows too much, one of them has to go. Your choice. Her or her father."
Mary Alice's POV
"Ms. Luciano, Ms. Volturi is here to see you." Sammy knocked on the bedroom door. I had just finished straightening my hair.
"I'll be there in a minute." I called back setting my flat iron down.
I glanced at myself in the mirror happy with my appearance. Shiny, smooth hair. Makeup perfect. Dark skinny jeans that I amazingly still fit in, only because I was carrying high, red cashmere sweater. I slipped on some cute black ankle boot heels and made my way into the living room.
Jane was sitting on the sofa staring at her nails like she was bored.
"Hi Jane."
She looked up at me as I walked over to the sofa.
"Hi Mary Alice. How are you?" She asked with a small smile.
"I'm good. Very sleepy these days but it goes with pregnancy I guess." I smiled back.
"Since we're talking about the pregnancy first thing, I thought I should tell you that I know you trapped my brother. He was meant for Roxy and you got in the way. Roxy is one of my dearest friends and you can imagine how upset she was when she learned she would never be wifey because Carlisle's little mistake caught him."
"Excuse me? Did I hear you correctly?" I asked her my anger growing by the second.
"Yea, ya did." She shot back, popping her gum.
All the money these people had and she looked as cheap as ever. Bleached, fried hair, chipped nail polish, gum smacking.
"I didn't trap Carlisle, you're fucking crazy. Carlisle and I love each other and this baby will be proof of that. You may be his sister, but remember that I'm going to be his wife. I demand the respect that comes with it. You got it, bitch?"
She chuckled and looked at her nails again.
"Got it, loud and clear. Just one more thing you should know. He's still fuckin' her. He'll never stop. Just like he'll never stop fuckin' all the other girls he has around town."
I felt tears stinging the back of my eyes but I held them in until she had walked out and the front door closed back.
Sammy stepped into the living room, handing me a tissue.
"Want me to call Boss?"
I shook my head.
"He's probably busy. I'll talked to him when he gets home."
Rosalie's POV
I heard the front door slam followed by Emmett's booming voice.
"Rosie!"
I walked into the living room to find Emmett, Santiago, and Jacob.
"Hello boys."
Emmett shot me a serious look.
"I was bored baby!" I threw my arms up.
"You still shouldn't have gone out alone, and you took Isabella with you!"
"I'm sorry."
"From now on Jacob is with you if I'm not. He'll be at school, too, so you'll actually have a bodyguard inside with you. I'm getting your schedule fixed so you'll have the same classes." He told me cracking a grin.
Emmett couldn't stay mad at me for long.
"Are you paying him in food?" I joked hearing him raiding the fridge.
"I might have to." Emmett said as we walked into the kitchen.
"Why is there no grub? You couldn't have got groceries when you snuck out?" Jacob mumbled from inside the fridge.
"We can order in or we could go to the grocery store." I replied.
"Order in." They all said in unison.
I called the pizza place down the block and ordered eight large pizzas.
These men ate like they had never eaten in their lives.
When the food arrived we sat around the table eating and drinking beer.
"How'd the meeting go?" Santiago asked.
"Better than it could have. Marcus isn't happy right now." Emmett said shrugging his shoulders.
He wasn't going to give him details but Santiago wouldn't let it go.
"So he wasn't happy about the publicity stunt."
"Santiago, let it go." I warned him when Emmett didn't respond.
He laughed and went on.
"Think you'll make the tabloids?"
Emmett sat his beer down and pulled his gun out aiming straight at Santiago.
"Shut the fuck up! If you speak a word of any of this again, I will leave you where I find you."
Santiago's eyes grew wide.
"Sorry, man. I was just joking. Not another word."
"So Jacob, are you happy football is over?" I looked over at him trying to change the subject.
"For real, gives me more time to work. I love football and that's my scholarship, but it doesn't pay for anything else." He said through a mouthful.
"Don't talk with food in your mouth, that's gross." I scolded him.
He nodded, but kept his mouth shut.
"I have to go out later, but Jacob is staying here with you." Emmett told me downing his beer.
"Since I'll have Jacob, can't I go out?" I pleaded with him.
"Not tonight. A few more days and then you can live it up." He shook his head.
I knew my face fell even though I tried to keep it straight.
"It's too dangerous. Soon, I promise." He said softly.
I nodded.
"We'll have fun right here! You play video games?" Jacob said trying to lighten the mood.
"Yea, right. Ooh, we could watch Vampire Diaries!" I suggested.
Jacob furrowed his brow and looked at Emmett.
"It's what I pay you for." Emmett laughed at him.
"Who the fuck would want to watch a show about vampires and shit?"
"Hush or I'll make you watch the Twilight movies." I threated him smirking.
"Whatever, I'll tune it out anyway." He picked up another slice.
"Just be on your toes." Emmett warned him.
Isabella's POV
I woke up with a pounding head and it was still dark out. I looked over at the clock to see I had only been asleep a couple of hours. My throat was killing me, and I decided to go downstairs for some water.
Where had Edward gone?
I heard voices as I walked down the hall. As I moved down the stairs, I made out Aro and Esme talking about some dessert.
I found them sitting at the table with Edward who was shoveling food into his mouth. Take out containers were scattered around the table.
"Hey Bella! Hungry?" Esme asked getting me a plate.
I nodded and poured myself a glass of water, drinking the whole thing.
"That's better." I mumbled.
Edward pulled out the chair next to him and I sat down.
"It smells really good." I said as Edward scooped food onto my plate.
"It is. Wait til you get to the cake." Aro smiled at me.
"You feel alright?" Edward asked glancing at me with a concerned look.
"Yea, I didn't realize how much I drank."
"I shouldn't have let you have that much. I stocked the bar back so your pops wouldn't notice his missing liquor." Edward said rubbing his hand up and down my back.
"Thanks." I smiled at him. "So what's the plan for tonight?"
"Why don't you spend the night with me?" Esme asked with a big smile.
"I'll have to call my dad, but it should be alright."
I quickly called and asked if I could stay with Esme and my dad said yes. He didn't know when he would be home and he didn't want me there alone.
"It's cool." I told them as Esme and Edward cleaned the table up.
"Let's back you a bag." Edward said and nodded at Aro to help Esme clean up.
He kept pinching my ass on the way up to my room.
I would squeal every time.
"God, I missed you." Edward murmured in my ear as he placed kisses down my neck.
"Me, too." I whispered softly reveling in the feel of his lips on my skin.
He pushed me against the wall and reached down cupping my ass.
I ran my hands through his hair, tugging his face to mine.
I kissed him deeply, not stopping until I needed air.
He pushed his groin against mine, letting me feel his hard length against me.
"They might hear us."
"Fuck 'em." He said pulling the hem of my shirt up.
"Edward..." I chastised as he brought the fabric over my head.
He ran his fingertips over the top of my breasts making my nipples pebble.
I leaned my head back and moaned as he gently nibbled my breasts through my bra.
He wrapped an arm around my waist holding me up and he snaked a hand down the front of my jeans.
His fingertips ran tortuously slow over my clit causing my hips to buck slightly.
He brought his fingers back up to his mouth, sucking on them and groaning before returning them between my legs.
I felt one finger enter me slowly curling, before another was added.
He moved them in and out, hitting just the right spot before brushing his thumb against my clit nearly sending me over the edge.
"Please, more." I panted as he teased me sending to the brink to pull me right back.
He pulled his fingers out and grabbed my arm, spinning me around to face the wall.
He yanked my jeans down my legs and wrapped an arm back around my waist. He placed a hand on my back pushing me to bend over before entering me swiftly.
His size made me tense up, but his slow, even strokes brought on the familiar coil in my stomach, making the pain fade away.
He quickened his motions and reached down rubbing circles on my clit.
I put my hands on the wall bracing myself for the impact of him thrusting into me.
I moaned his name softly trying to be quick but the coil in my stomach was quickly resolving my control.
He gripped my hip with his other hand bringing me to slam against him with every thrust.
All I heard was the panting and groaning come from both of us.
Edward was going so hard I almost couldn't take the pain, but my body still responded to him, begging for more.
I felt the familiar warmth spreading through my body as his dick started to pulsate inside of me.
Feeling his cock jump sent me over the edge I had been teetering on.
I felt myself tighten on him as I screamed his name.
Edward pulled me up and I collapsed back against him.
"That's my girl." Edward whispered in my ear. "I love you."
He helped me put my clothes back on and throw some in a bag.
Esme and Aro were standing at the bottom of the stairs, whistling and clapping.
I don't think my face has ever been redder than it was at that moment.
