Chapter 15
Carlisle felt Helen couldn't carry the baby any longer on the morning of the 13th.
Carlisle had to bite through the uterus and delivered not one but two healthy babies one boy and one girl. They both had Charlie's curls the boy had Bronze hair and brown eyes and the girl had brown hair and green eyes. Carlisle handed the boy to Helen as he delivered the girl but the boy bit Helen as his venom spread in her. Helen would be forever 19 years old. It took her three days of burning but she finally woke as a newborn.
Carlisle and Jasper were in the room when Helen woke she got off the table and looked at them and asked "where are my babies?"
Carlisle said "they are with their father."
Helen said "I want to see them."
Jasper said "first you need to get your thirst under control. Come on I will take you hunting."
Jasper took Helen hunting he lead her to a herd of deer. He showed her how it was done then let her at them. Helen filled her thirst then Jasper brought her home.
Esme embraced Helen when she came into the house and said "welcome to the family."
Helen asked "where are my babies?"
Edward said "they are right here and they are both amazing."
Edward was holding the boy and Rosalie was holding the girl.
Alice said "we are all waiting for you to tell us what their names are."
Helen said "if it is alright with Edward I would like to name them Elizabeth and Masen Cullen."
Edward said "I like them."
Rosalie let Helen hold Elizabeth.
Edward said "We are going to have to tell Charlie you didn't make it."
Helen sighed and said "I know I suspect you will know what needs to be done. Will I have to lay in a casket while people look at me?"
Carlisle said "we will insist on a closed casket due to illness. We will find a corpse about your size. You just have to stay out of sight."
Helen was able to love on both of her babies before Jacob and the pack showed up.
Jacob and Sam were as themselves everyone else was their wolves.
Helen smiled and said "Hi why is everybody here?"
Sam said "we want to make it clear that you are going to become like the Cullen's."
Edward said "you don't have anything to worry about she is one of us now. We will teach her our ways. It is my fault that this happened I will make sure I will take care of her."
Helen asked "Did you let Bella see my babies yet Jake?"
Jacob said "I couldn't risk her safety."
Edward said "I texted her some pictures. Now that we have names for them we can let her know."
Helen said "I can't believe I'm never going to see Bella again but I couldn't kill my babies."
Edward said "Bella understands why you did what you did and at least she will know the truth about you. You will be able to email and text her so you will be able to stay in touch. Just as long as no one finds out."
The pack left satisfied that Helen would never kill a human and Carlisle made the hard call to Charlie convincing him that he couldn't see Helen's body wasn't easy but Carlisle was able to convince Charlie to let him take care of the funeral arrangements.
Helen stayed home and looked after the twins the Cullen's were planning to move to make it easier on Helen it would be a long time before she could be around humans. Edward was kind and patient with her. He bought her a violin. They were able to play duets.
Edward was recovering from his loss of Bella and he was getting used to his new role as a father and he felt it was his responsibility to make sure Helen learned how to be a Cullen. Of course everyone was helping with that. It helped that Jasper knew a thing or two about newborns. Helen was generally a happy person so Jasper liked to be around her. The whole family loved the babies they were growing so fast they all worried how long they would have with them.
Irina from the Denali coven came to apologize she was shocked to learn about the twins and how Helen and Bella had switched places at the wedding. She went home feeling better about her relationship with the Cullen's.
As the months went by and Helen's control got better and her eyes changed color they made plans to go visit the Volturi. As the months went by Helen and Edward's relationship became romantic in nature. Helen was not Bella but she was in love with Edward and he was falling in love with her. They had a small wedding just the family and Denali and at the end of Helen's Newborn year she and Edward went to Italy. They visited the Volturi under Bella's name the Volturi were none the wiser and Edward and Helen had a nice vacation just like he had promised her in the city of music.
The road to their happiness had been full of bumps and dips but now they both were on a smooth road where they had only happiness and love Forever.
