Forever And Always

Chapter 22

Bella P.O.V

There was silence from her side, her breathing was the only thing audible. I bite my lip, waiting, holding Edward's hand with my free hand.

"I know you're with the police," she said, "how do I know this is not a trap?"

"I'm not risking my son's life," I said. "Just tell me what you want in exchange of giving me my son back. I promise you that no one is going to hurt you."

"I don't care about that," she hissed. "I want to talk to you, no one else has to be there. We can come up to a good negotiation then... I'll probably give you your brat back."

Suddenly, I heard a cry on the background. A baby cry, my baby is crying. I immediately start to cry, covering my mouth.

"What happened?" I sobbed, "is he okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, he's fine," she growled. "He just woke up hungry. Want to talk to mommy, little brat? Do you? Do you?" She said in a fake innocent voice. He's sobs grew louder and also some little growls. "Say, 'hi, mommy.'" Edward's arms wrapped around me as I sob. "Say, 'don't mess up, mommy, or else this mean women is going to hurt me.'"

"Tanya, please don't hurt him," I cried. "I'm begging you, not my baby."

"It depends," she said. "I'll see you at the cottage I have in Wallace Falls at five. I want Renee to come so she can lead you there and then leave. If the police come or if she doesn't leave then I'll hurt you and the brat right there."

"She'll take me and then will leave, I promise," I said. "Please, don't hurt him."

"Like I said, it all depends on you. See you tomorrow, Bella." Then she hanged up.

Tomorrow? Can I go tomorrow? Am I ready to be there? Of course, I am, I can't let my baby with her any longer. I need to save my baby as soon as possible. I know I can do this, I know I'll be able to.

"We can't do this," Jacob said, "there's way too much risk to take letting you be alone with her."

Edward growled, "that's what I tried to say."

"Well, as you can see I'm taking that risk. So, tomorrow I'm getting my son back and we'll hopefully catch her."

"Are you sure?" Edward asked.

"Yeah," I said, "I am.

~~~~ The Next Day ~~~~

I couldn't sleep in all night, I way too nervous to get any sleep. The only way I felt safe was being in Edward's arms, the only way I felt complete was in his arms. I knew Edward worried about me, that he didn't want to loose me and a part of me worried, too, because I knew I wasn't strong enough if Tanya tried to fight me. I have a disadvantage here, and that's that I'm going to be alone and I will not know when or how is her first attack going to be.

That afternoon the Cullen family and mom took me to the police station where Jacob would hide a microphone on my shirt so they can hear what's happening and know when is exactly when I'm going to need help.

"Okay, Bella, if you fear that something bad is going to happen then immediately say 'red' that's the key word and we'll come as quick as possible to get you and Bruno out of there," Jacob said.

I nod. "Okay."

"You need to be calm, try to talk to her and distract her while we get ready to surround the house," he adds, "that would probably take about ten minutes, so you might as well start negotiating with her to distract her. Then, we'll break in and everything is going to be okay, I promise."

I nod, again.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" He asked.

"Yeah."

"Alright," he sighed. "Give Renee the car keys and follow them, not too close, though we don't want her to see us."

Edward takes my hand and guides me out. Just when I'm about to say something he grabs my face in between his hands and kisses me like he's never done before. Aggressive, passionate, possessive. I guess he's trying his hardest not to say goodbye.

"You have to come back, okay?" He breaths against my lips.

"I promise."

"I love you, Bella."

"I love you, Edward."

"Get in the car," he guides me. "Renee, please, take care of her until you get there."

"I will, Edward," she said, "we'll both come back and with Bruno."

Edward closes the door and the microphone in the car turns on and Sam's voice sounds, giving my mom instructions.

That was the longest ride of my life, I didn't know where exactly were we heading or how long was it going to take. I didn't know what time was it or if we were going to be there on time. At one point in the ride, the car started moving from one side to another, like if we were going over rocks, dirt or something.

Then, we stop.

"We're here," Mom said, turning the engine off. "She's out here waiting."

My heart immediately starts to beat so fast that at one point it's going to jump out of my chest.

"Be careful, Bella," Mom sobbed. "After you get out of the car walk straight, you'll reach her."

I nod. "Okay."

I get out of the car, closing the door behind me. I take a few steps straight until I hear her say.

"Stop." So, I do. "Hello, Bella."

"Tanya."

"Now," she says, "let's finish this where it started it."

I nod. She takes me by the arm and guides me inside the cottage. I get the smell of dirt and fresh wood. It's warm in here.

Then, I hear it. A little babbling, my baby.

"Bruno?"

Suddenly, her hand grabs me by the neck and throws me against the wall. My head impacts the wall and my body smashes against the ground, hard. There's a sudden, painful ache on my left arm where I landed. I groan in pain, holding it against my chest.

"Now," I hear her come closer, "this is where you die, Sweetie."

I scream when she grabs me by the hair and pulls me up to my feet...
