Bella has suffered ever since Edward walked out of her life.
Jasper suffered heartbreak at the betrayal of the one he had loved for over sixty years.
Both have scars on their hearts.
But something is coming and things will change.
But will the endin...
I had a off putting feeling today come over me. I didn't know what it was but something about today felt almost uneasy. Like something was coming but I don't know what. Emmett kept glancing at me. I believe my mate sensed my unease. I didn't know what to tell him but something in my gut just screamed something was going to happen today.
Its the day after Christmas and Emmett and I enjoyed the night here back at the old house in Forks. I still felt sad for Bella. We left hoping to protect her and she is one of us now. Looks like Alice was either wrong or lying. No matter, there is no going back for her. She has her mind set on Jasper. I'm happy he now has someone who appreciates him for who he is, scars and all. It makes my unbeating heart warm up seeing him laughing, happy with her.
I heard something outside. I don't know what but it left that pit in my stomach feeling. I grabbed Emmett's hand. Jasper had stopped laughing and looked towards the door then ran out of the house. Bella followed right behind him. Emmett and I followed on their trail. The feeling in my stomach was becoming more powerful.
On the cliff ledge above stood the two people who I didn't want to see at this moment. Both of them stared at Bella in confusion and awe; Carlisle and Esme had found us. They had found out about Bella.

Emmett ran and pushed me behind him. "Bella, is that you?" Esme asked. "Yeah its me." Carlisle looked to Jasper and then to Bella. "Jasper, did you change Bella?" Jasper shook his head. "It was Victoria who changed her. I came across her on my way to Texas passin' through Forks." Carlisle looked sorrowful, as did Esme. "I am so sorry Bella. Love we have to tell Edward." Jasper growled, "No!" Jasper's eyes were slowly darkening. "But Jasper, Bella is Edward's mate. He has to know." Esme stated. "No I'm not," Bella told Esme. "He would have never left me in those woods alone, left Victoria alive or left me to suffer! No mate does that!" Bella told Esme off. Jasper nodded. "Besides, how can Bella be that bastards when her true mate bond is standin' right here." Jasper spoke in his thickening southern drawl. "What do you mean son?" Carlisle asked. "I am no son of yours! You have no right after ya so called parents favoured the two who caused this, allowed your so called son to run off and not even dared act truly worried. You showed me no true love, seen me only as Alice's boy toy. I am not an item or just a soldier. I am a man! I am not some child! And Bella is my true mate, not your favorite bastards property! He only ever wanted her for her blood. He was obsessed with her for it. That wasn't love! I marked Bella, laid with her. She is MINE!!!" Jasper spit out in anger. He was shaking and looking ready to rip their heads off. Esme looked stunned. "Carlisle, we need to tell them about Edward. The reason we came here looking for Emmett and Rose." Rosalie hissed. "What is that bitch up to this time!?" Emmett rubbed Rosalie's hand, trying to sooth her but looking pissed himself. "He has been sneaking off lately, sometimes for days on end. He refused to tell us where he has been going. The farthest we ever tracked his phone was to Sicily before the signal vanished. We think he has been sneaking off to Volterra. We don't know what he is up to but I doubt its anything good." Carlisle states. Bella looked shocked and worried. "The Volturi knows of me being a vampire. If they told bitchward something this could create more trouble. The fuckwad has always been possessive of me. They could be either using him to get to me, or Edward is offering himself up for service so he can have me." Jasper growled when Bella said this. "I won't let anyone hurt you Bella. I promised the moment I marked you I'd be there for you always." Bella looked at Jasper worried. "But I can't lose you to." Jasper pulled Bella close to him, "you won't. I'm yours." He kissed her head, her face and finally her lips.

It was true. The mark on both Bella's and Jasper's necks were visible. There he was talking to her, kissing her. It had to be true. Jasper and Bella were true mates. But then why did Alice say that Edward and Bella were meant to be? What was the purpose? There are so many still unanswered questions. Only Alice and Edward would know. "What's your move Carlisle? Are you going to tell the asshole or help us?" Rosalie asked me, "are you with him or with us?!" She shouted angrily. I looked at Esme and knew our minds were already made up. "We are with you." I felt a sense of relief sadly. Edward was doing harm. He maybe has been like a son to me but I will do what is right. Even if I must stand against him on opposing sides.
