Chapter seventeen
"Okay so let me start from the beginning." Charlie said with a clap of his hands.
"Uh Dad aren't you going to do something about Sue?" Bella asked.
"Nah I'll just fill her in later. I would have to anyway because I am soon going to propose to her."
"Wow, congratulations Dad! I'm so happy for you." Bella replied.
"I knew you would and I'm sure Seth will be alright but Leah, I don't know that girl has a huge chip on her shoulder. I only wish I could tell her that she'll meet her happily ever after very soon."
"What?" Bella barked.
"Nope not cluing you in on that one Bells, she'll see it soon. Anyways back to my story. I was 16 almost 17 when my mother sat me down to talk. I thought it was going to be the sex talk and I was about to tell her not to bother but she beat me to the punch by blurting it out. 'You're a Watcher Charlie.' I just stared like she was wearing a clown suit and building balloon animals. She went about explaining how she knew when I had done something wrong or was about to get in trouble and either prevented it or reprimanded me after the fact. I argued that I had no clue what she was talking about and she countered with wait til later tonight and all will be explained. She explained to me how there were more than just people and animals on the planet and that we were the Watchers of the supernatural. At that point I laughed in her face and accused her of being drunk. A few minutes later I was sitting in my room after being punished yet again for being disrespectful to her. Later that night she drug me to one of her book reading meetings or so I thought. It actually was a meeting of the regional Watchers detailing out the lives of vampires, shifters, werewolves, fairies and witches.
Witches I found out were just humans that could use a larger part of their brain than normal humans giving them extra abilities that resembled magic. Fairies which are usually harmless are very elusive and tend to stay hidden in the deep forest. Werewolves are nasty creatures that lose all humanity during a full moon and can turn several humans in one night if they don't finish off the kill properly. Shifters of course you know about they are all over the US and strangely enough are contained mostly in Indian reservations. And vampires, well there are the obvious human drinkers with their red eyes and then the hard to come by veggie eaters that live off animals. By the way I'm glad you chose to drink from humans, you're control around humans will be much better. But then I suspect from Bella's scent that control is not a problem for her and since the Major here is about 150 years old, control should be of little concern to him even with his empathy abilities."
"What do you mean because of my scent?" Bella asked.
"Not to put too fine a point on it Bells but you both smell like sex but the most concentrated portion is coming directly from you baby girl. You're a succubus are you not?" Charlie asked.
"How did you know?"
"Simple, I watch. All succubi have a strong scent of sex and a diminished bloodlust but by the looks on your faces and the fact that Jasper brought you here when you are only days old tells me that you have another ability. Am I right?"
"This is just amazing. I thought I would scare you to death or kill you by a fit of laughter but here you sit telling me that you not only know what we are but have intel on other supernatural beings. How did you know about the Major's ability?" Bella asked.
"I have friends in the south that have watched for some time as well as my own observations."
"Did you always know that she would be changed?" I asked.
"Yes but I didn't know when. You see your grandmother had prophetic dreams and she predicted all the details of your birth and when you were five she told me of the dream about you meeting a 'family' of vampires. She told me that one would crave your blood but would keep his control over it and that his sister would manipulate you and the family to her will. My only fault was that I thought Rosalie was the sister in question not Alice. You know for a vampire she can pull off meek and mild quite well." Charlie replied.
"I had another fortune teller of sorts tell me about your future when Angela disappeared. This one is a witch that owes me a few favors. She knew of the kidnapping and the auction house and that a vampire related to your mate would rescue you. Was it Peter or Charlotte?"
"Charlotte and you would of loved how she put Mike Newton in his place."
"Mike Newton?" Charlie asked.
"Yeah apparently he is behind the kidnappings. He was hired by vamps to steal girls for auction to vamps as play things or a blood supply in snack size portions." Bella retorted.
"And why has he not turned up missing or dead now that you are in town?" Charlie growled.
"Because no one besides the wolves and you two know we're here. Besides we're leaving him to the wolves." I replied.
"Why? He kidnapped your mate, my daughter! Hell now I want a piece of him." Charlie fumed.
"Dad, calm down your emotions are getting to Jasper. Besides Jacob kind of imprinted on Angela but Jasper will get his chance not just for me but for Arianna as well." Bella answered.
"Ah yes, your only human relative. I am sorry for the loss of her parents and younger siblings." Charlie whispered his apology.
"Damn Dad, that's amazing. It's almost like you're a mind reader."
"Please don't compare me to your Ex sweetheart. I really don't want to be in the same bucket as him. I understand that your blood called to him but I hated watching him look at you. If was as if he wanted to eat you. And I don't just mean drain you dry. No it was something more degrading and disgusting. Like BDSM stuff only sicker."
Bella and I both shuddered to think of Edward in such a manner. Like Prudeward could actually say the term BDSM or other things like flogger and whip or even nipple clamps. Mmmm nipple clamps, maybe I should use something like that on My Bella if she actually thinks I'll allow her to torture Peter by using Charlotte. I know where she's going with that train of thought and no one besides me will see her naked. That ass of hers is ALL MINE!
"Major, permission to ask a favor of you?" Charlie said through a cracking voice. Sweat starting to bead on his forehead.
"Of course, what is it Chief?"
"Can you please not project your feeling about my daughter while I'm in the room? I'm currently fighting back the need to puke over the feelings I'm suddenly having about my own flesh and blood." Charlie asked looking a little green in the gills so to speak.
"Oops, my bad. It's her fault, there's a constant wave of arousal coming off of her and her shield is the only thing keeping me in check." Yeah that was a low blow blaming it on Bella but hell she is the Succubus and I'm just the empath.
"It was the whip cream comment from earlier wasn't it? All this BDSM talk got you thinking of ways to punish me for wanting to torture Peter by using Charlotte."
"You know me so well. Sorry Darlin'."
"Don't worry about it, I will be the only fully dressed vampire in the room when it happens." Bella cooed.
"La la la la, I'm not hearing this. Please stop talking or I will pull out a Zippo and start lighting vampires on fire." Charlie yelled.
"Sorry Dad."
"Listen, it's late and it looks like I'm going to have to carry Sue back upstairs to bed. She's in no condition to drive if she wakes before morning. Besides I believe you have a blond Amazon and a Tennessee Grizzly bear coming to meet you at the Cullen house, correct?!"
"See now you're just being freaky by showing off." Bella chastised.
"Love you too Bells, call me when you meet with the wolves again."
"Chief would you like me to carry Sue upstairs for you? She did give you quite the workout earlier." I asked.
"That would be wonderful thanks. By the way is it wrong that I love the fact that my sex life grosses out Bells?" He asked.
"Not at all, besides she can handle it."

"Major?" Bella asked.
"Yes Isabella?"
"Permission to mess with Emmett when we get to the house?"
"I don't think that's wise Darlin'."
"Major, feel my emotions you know that I only love you. He's my big brother and I want to freak him out just a bit. Besides I planned on letting Rosalie in on the gag." Bella pleaded.
Damn I can't say no when she looks at me like that. "Okay what's the plan?"
"Well I need to text Peter and get him to discreetly show it to Rose. I'll have her play along with everything I say and do. But we also need Peter to get the others to leave the house or go to another floor. I'm going to have to use my allure to really mess with his mind and I don't want the others getting caught in the mix."
"Alright but if anything goes wrong I reserve the right to run you to safety." I replied.
"Deal." Bella said with a wink.
Ugh, this woman of mine.

Rosalie waited patiently behind the couch pretending to watch the video game Emmett was playing. She wanted so badly to apologize to Bella for her behavior and she was finally going to get a chance. She had read the text Bella sent to Peter and it left her with more questions than answers.
PETER, FIND A WAY TO DISTRACT EMMETT AND THEN DISCREETLY GIVE THIS TEXT TO ROSALIE.
ROSALIE I NEED A FAVOR. I WANT TO PULL A PRANK ON EMMETT. P & C WILL GET THE OTHERS OUT OF THE HOUSE SO IT WILL BE JUST US. WHEN I GET THERE GO ALONG WITH EVERYTHING I DO BUT DO NOT LOOK ME IN THE EYES. PERIPHERAL ONLY. SEEN YOU SOON.
LOVE YOUR LITTLE SIS.
'Bella had called herself my little sis, does that mean she already forgives us.' Rosalie thought to herself. Rosalie was so confused, she had chastised Jasper for changing Bella but then he explained that they were mates so she knew he would take care of her but she knew nothing else. Jasper and Peter would not tell her what Bella looked like except that she was more beautiful. Again she paced wondering what Bella had in store. She was focused on the TV again when she smelled strawberries and chocolate and sex. Rosalie thought that Jasper and Bella must have stopped off in the woods to get down and dirty.

I watched her pace from the living room window. She looked nervous and distracted, confused and sad all at the same time. I was so excited about this prank that I decided to up the stakes so to speak.
"Jasper? I'm going to keep my physical shield on the whole time. I want to really confuse Emmett and I can only do that by touching her. She's supposed to play along with everything I do and I really think this is the route." I stated.
"Okay but how are you going to use your allure if your shield is up?" He asked.
"Only my mental shield blocks it, the physical shield will keep my grizzly bear brother out."
"Alright but don't be surprised if the Major drags you away and Aries quickly shows his face. Besides one of us if not all will be reclaiming you later on." He growled.
"Mmm fantastic, DEAL. Oh Jasper?"
"Yes Darlin'."
"Do I get you all three at the same time or just one right after the other?"
"I'm not even sure how to answer that Darlin'."
"Oh well no matter, let's do this."
Quietly I walked in the doorway to the living room and using vampire speed walked up behind Rosalie snaking my left hand around her waist and my right across her collarbone. I gave a quick lick and kiss to her neck and inhaled her rose scent. Roses, figures. I wonder where exactly are her thorns.
"Emmett, brother bear it looks like you've been neglecting your wife. I don't understand how that's possible when she has such a curvaceous body. Hell I don't believe I would let her out of my sight or my bed." I cooed into her ear while eying my brother on the couch.
"Bellsy, you're back. How is Charlie? We've been waiting for you for a few hours now." Emmett said while he paused his game and slowly got up from his seat.
Rosalie had let out a shuddered breath and had leaned back into my body. No doubt doing as she was told from the text. Emmett turned to face us now and stood statue still and slack jawed at our closeness.
"Cat got your tongue Rosalie? Aren't you glad to see me?" I purred.
"Bellybear, what are you doing to my wife?" Emmett slowly moved around the couch towards us.
"Saying hello brother bear." I replied as I licked her neck again and two of my fingers slid into her pants.
Emmett's eyes darkened with lust and confusion was written across his face. He didn't understand why he was suddenly horny for the vampire he called sister. Rosalie whimpered at the situation then growled at Emmett. Emmett without looking at Rosalie asked if something was wrong.
"Emmett you're my husband and mate. Stop looking at your sister in such a way."Rosalie growled.
"Don't be angry Rosalie, I think he's jealous that I can affect you in such a manner." I said as the little finger on my right hand slid down into her cleavage that was busting out of her top.
"He hasn't even looked at me Bella, just you." She cried. "She's your sister Emmett snap out of it.
"What's the matter Emmy bear? You want your Rosie don't you?" I said before sniffing her hair and switching my chin rest to her opposite shoulder. "Or are you looking for something else. Are you thinking dirty thoughts? Are they about Rose? Or me? Or both of us?" I cooed as I switched from shoulder to shoulder. Emmett's eyes following my every move.
Rose watching him growled at him then me menacingly. Emmett not liking her growls took off around the couch to pounce on us but slammed into my shield. He landed on his ass a few feet back but was undeterred when he got back up pounding on the shield. Rose could only stare at the blue shimmers before stuttering out a 'what the hell?'.
I was laughing out loud by now and finally Jasper told me it was time to stop my game before Emmett ended up breaking furniture that Esme was particularly fond of.
"Oh alright." I said quite childishly. My mental shield was up instantly and I informed Rosalie that it was now safe to look at me. Using vampire speed though she turned to punch me but I stopped her fist dropped my shield, shoved her into Emmett and raised it again.
Emmett was still shaking his head like he was trying to get rid of the dirty thoughts he just had of his sister. Rose was still angry not sure what was going on and Bella couldn't contain her laughter.
"Isabella, contain yourself please and explain to your brother and sister what you just did." The Major commanded. Can't wait for that claiming. Yummy.
"Alright Major Cranky. Emmett, Rosalie please sit down. Apparently I got some 'splaining to do'." I stated in my best Ricky Richardo voice.
