I wake to the sound of the shower. I look to the other side of the bed and see it empty and know that my baby doll is in the shower so I get up and head into the kitchen.

As I pass the bathroom door I can't help but look in and see that sexy rear end of hers and I'm instantly hard with thoughts of bending her over and taking her from behind.

Come one man get a grip, you only just broke her in so ease her into those things!

"OK, ok, ok, you don't have to keep reminding me!" I accidently say out loud and I hear a sweet sounding chuckle behind me with the soft and warm arms of Bella around my waist.

"Who were you talking to?" she asks and I reply

"Just to myself, Baby doll"

Next, while I have a shower (even though I wanted to shower with her), she gets us breakfast and we then sit down in comfortable silence to eat. I'm guessing both thinking about what's to come and what we have to do about it

Today is going to be a long and busy day. I just can't see how we are going to be able to figure this out, as we have no clue whether or not old Barty got to send through anything to his employers.

Guess that will be a starting point for us, but where to from there? Bella is the first to come back from her thoughts, snapping me out of mine.

"Well we better get starting or we won't get anywhere"

I nod my head and we both head down to my office, where we see Jas, Alice, Em and Rose.

"Ok guys where are we and what do we know?" I ask knowing that they would have been looking into things while Bella and I were sleeping.

"As far as we can tell Barty didn't get to transmit anything and his last contact with the Volturi was over a month ago" Jas starts and Em finishes "It actually looks like he was sort of about to be fired from his job due to lack of results, so he was most likely trying to get info to keep his job."

I nod my head with a small exhale of breathe that i didn't realise i was holding and before I can say a word Bella asks "How do you come to that conclusion?"

They all look at each other and then at me and it almost makes me laugh before I remember they are not used to Bella being here.

I add "Well...?" letting my frustration and anger come through in my voice.

"Oh...well...ah we know this from all the paperwork he was carrying and after finding where he has been staying and finding out that Barty kept very good and detailed records, we know he was working on his own when we caught him. Which I'm guessing if the Volturi found out how detailed his records were he'd be dead rather than fired, but he sure was playing a fine line though as he was being employed by several other companies and wealthy families around the world and most don't like each other to the point that one slip up and he would have been dead long before now." Rose replies.

"So basically we have all this info on other families and the Volturi? Was there any fail safes on any piece of technology he may have had about if he didn't come back?" I ask being concered information could still get out.

"Well we cleaned out his place and have it all here, our tech experts are going through it as we speak so we will know soon, but so far it doesn't appear so. It actually looks like he thought he was very valued and needed that no one could dispose of him." Em answers.

I look at the pile of paperwork and photo's on my desk and know that these are from Barty. I pick up one that looks like it is from Swan Residence and I show Bella, who very understandably goes pale as it shows me at her front door kissing. I rub my hand up and down her back and she seems to calm a little and I continue with the meeting to try and distract both of us.

"So where do we go from here? Do we send some info to the Volturi to make them think what we want them to think? or do we call off the mission and try again later?"

Everyone looks at me with a look that tells me they have a million ideas as to what they want to do, but can't answer my questions.

I sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose as i do. Bella, who's arm is around my shoulders, gives me a little squeeze and i look at her with a smile. I go back to my frustrated thoughts.

Now what? I don't fucking know. We've never come across something like this! Maybe I should just take Bella's family business and leave her?

Like hell you will! We have never felt so contented to someone and we can't be alone fucking dumb idiots for the rest of our lives and besides if we only just mention about her being bent over...

Alright, ok, I get it and now I have a massive hard on...THANKS!

You're welcome!

Sometimes I hate my inner monologs, especially when he is right. I can't leave her now because she has ruined me to all others and I can't imagine my life without her now...I'll be damned if I let another man ever lay hands on my baby doll, EVER!

"Well we could always send an email from Barty to them stating he has new info about Swan industries and that I have left my father to fulfil his promise to them, but that I have done so against his wishes so he is selling the industries to you and then this way I can get inside and kill James, only there will be instructions for him to follow." Bella states making my blood boil.

She must have known because she follows up before anyone can speak.

"Think about it, if in this email from Barty we state that I would be seeking to fulfil my parents promise due to me not wanting to take over the family business because I am a woman and I feel I shouldn't be running a business, then James is going to think I'm weak when I am not.

Also if I can get him to marry me first then I know for a fact that if he dies as part of an accident or assassination then I as his widow, even after only 3 days, would be entitled to half a million dollars' worth of properties and money. I could drag this out long enough to get the security codes and get you all in and we can wipe out our targets so much easier and cleaner then at this ball."

"As much as I can see Edward is seething over this idea, it could work out so much better" Em states making me shot him a death stare making him shrink into his chair.

Bella takes my face into her hands and looks at me dead in the eyes and says in a soft soothing tone that I just can't say no to

"It'll be ok Edward, I know how to take care of myself and he doesn't know that. Plus I won't be sleeping with him as I can drug his food every night because we have learned he always gets his women to cook for him and he never has a tester for it. We can also make it one of the rules because he would still think I'm a virgin."

I slowly nod my head as she is right this would be the perfect play to make.

With a deep steadying breath I say

"As much as I hate this idea, it's perfect. Now we just need to make it fool proof and make sure Bella can remain safe at all times throughout this plan to accomplish our mission."

Everyone nods their heads in response and we all just set about making this work for the rest of the day.

~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~0~

As we sit down to dinner that night at the dining table with paperwork all strewn across it in between bowls, platters and cutlery, each in our own heads trying to make things work out with this new plan for our mission, I look over at Bella and find her looking at me. We smile at the same time and I get another new and strange feeling over me again.

I pray this will work, but vow if that bastard lays one finger or hurts even one hair on her body...well if anyone else does that to her...i'll do more than kill them.

"Well i think that will do for one night and we will continue this tomorrow. Alice will you pick up these papers and put them on my desk before you go to bed please" I state as i get up and walk around to Bella, making sure to indicate both mine and Bella's paperwork.

I see Alice get a cheeky, but happy smile and nod her head in acceptance and i grab Bella's hand and we make our way up to our room. Once there we both have a shower and then after we dry off, we make our way to the bedroom and lay in each others arms for the rest of the night.

As my eyes close i realise i have never just layed like this with a woman and i find i am really liking this feeling.

Tomorrow we have so much work to do and i have to make sure that my baby doll won't get hurt through all of this, i don't care if she can handle herself as i want to be the one to look after her for a change!
