Chapter 30

"You're supporting this?" Jasper had whispered low at Dorothea's ear to avoid their vampire siblings from hearing their private conversation. Dorothea looks up at the man, trying to locate if he was mad or disappointed with her action but Jasper remains neutral look. "Not entirely? I'm not certain, but I don't fancy seeing him functioning all sad and dull."

Jasper let out a sigh, before looking at Edward who inadvertently glances at his five inhumanly beautiful siblings, who wait for him, expectantly, at their table. "I'm not mad but if this ends badly which we both know will happen," He let out an irritated sigh from just the thought, "I guess there is no choice but a fight."

"Don't say that, I'll discover a way but it might intervene with the future."

"Don't push yourself, love"

( ≖.≖)

"You know what? We should consider going fishing."

Today the sun shined too bright for the Cullen to leave their house, so everyone had crammed themselves inside the living room doing their things. Emmet who was watching a fishing channel had volunteered the idea but Rosalie and Alice groaned in disapproval, the thought stuck in the lake with nothing to entertain wasn't their type of fun.

Carlisle just chuckles and suggests that they could do that next time if he wanted. He and Emmet sat seat on the sofa watching the fishing channel with Emmet now continuously asking if he could adopt a pet fish.

Dean and Edward playing chest, mostly Dean trying hard to block Edward from his mind. Alice, Rose, and Esme read through the fashion magazine with the latest trend. Dorothea and Jasper are at the end of the couch while nuzzling with each other.

"Are you going to the Volturi next month honey?" Carlisle's question made everyone stiffen except for Dorothea, the rest was still uncomfortable and uneasy around the Volturi. "I'm not. I had already written to Aro, Marcus, and Caius. Thou, I doubt Caius even open the letter."

"How did they react?" / "Marcus return a letter, remarking it was exceptional while Aro wasn't pleased about it, said nothing, just demanding more time next year."

"I see." The room went back to normal, them going back to the things they were doing but that changed when Dorothea had her next four words. "With Jasper this time."

The Cullen immediately stood up gaping at the couple who was cuddling, Jasper had a shocked look while Dorothea was unbothered by it. "He wants to? Why?" Dorothea finally sat up straight along with Jasper beside him, everyone had their eyes on the youngest Cullen.

"He somehow found out about my mate and demands him along on my next trip to Italy. Something about wanting to see the Jasper Whitlock that has me as his."

"I'll go then." Carlisle was quick to stop Jasper's decision on wanting to meet the Volturi, especially Aro. "No, Aro isn't an easy vampire. We don't know what's going through his mind."

"We don't but we know one thing for sure. He won't hurt anything that Thea loves," Dean spoke up next to relax the tension, he remembers Carlisle saying once how much Aro loves Dorothea and that anything she wants, he would give.

Despite Dorothea nevermore addressing the Volturi, the Cullen knew how much the Volturi, specifically Aro adore their youngest. "That's right. We should trust them, Carlisle." It was Esme's turn to calm down her husband.

"Now, that's done. Who wants to go hunting? There's a group of deers and mountain lion not far." Alice spoke up with a cheering Emmet behind her, ready to leave the house and into action. Everyone agrees a hunt would be fun, leaving to go hunting in the wood but minding the treaty line with the wolves.

Dorothea watch from above as Jasper, Carlisle, Dean, and Emmet have a competition on how can catch the most animal for their partner. Edward is the only single one, which made him annoyed at the game, and was about to leave the forest to stalk his mortal but Dorothea stops him by yelling from the tree branch.

"There is a warehouse at the end of a parking lot at Port Angeles. It's charming but dangerous, I think you should go check it out." Edward was confused and was going to ignore his sister but seeing her serious look, he nods his head before sprinting off. Dorothea jumped to the ground with the rest of the females in the family.

"What's in Port Angeles?" Esme had asked her favorite child of all while Alice just kept quiet knowing what was going to happen. "Trouble, but that's not relevant. Eddy can handle it, maturely."

Rosalie wasn't able to say much because Emmet had a rush to her with three deers he was dragging, making them all fall on the ground, the man had a happy look with blood everywhere since he won the competition. Almost looking like an adorable puppy, minus the blood and dead animals

Jasper came after with three also while Carlise and Dean arrive at the same time with 2 deers each.

A sound of a phone cut the laughter between the family, Carlisle's phone was going on. Picking up the call, Carlisle's face had turned serious and deadly, sensing its trouble Esme had ordered the children to head home first. "What is it?"

"They found another body, Waylon Forge he was found in the woods out near his place. The police think it's an animal attack and want me to look through the body."

Unknown to them, the sibling was listening carefully to their parent's conversation. They share a worried and understanding look at who was behind this murder. Their silent walk back home was cut by Alice's sudden harsh gasp. "Babe, what's wrong? A vision?" Dean was quick to help support her and held onto her hands and back.

"She knows. Bella knows."

Dorothea links her arm with Jasper while giving him a worried smile. If Bella had found out already, that's when the action starts. Jasper gave the girl a peck on her head before leading her inside the house.
