EsmeRay Jadis Swan I'd the adopted daughter of Charlie Swan and Renee Dwyer.
She was given to them by an old friend of Helena Swan and asked that they take care of her. Her unusual appearance and the fact that strand things happen when she's upset...
Esmeray's POV I woke up to arguing happening above me.
"You should mind your own business!" Bella snapped "Watch your tone with me girl " Zalgo's voice growled threateningly "What's going on?" I asked in a raspy voice "I'll tell you what's going on! Your fat, lazy ass wouldn't wake up and we've landed!" "You have no right to put your hands on her! Sister or not, Esmeray was clearly exhausted and needed rest!" I blinked as I realized that my arm and face were sore.
I looked at it and saw a blotchy red spot indicating that I was roughly grabbed and possibly slapped. How deep of a sleep was I in?!
I shook my head and grabbed my carryon from the luggage compartment. I grabbed Zalgo's wrist and dragged him off the plane to baggage claim "Thank you for standing up for me, but Bella's treated me like that my entire life. Things aren't going to change anytime soon or ever because of her toxic mindset" Zalgo grumbled as we grabbed our bags and he walked me out we said our goodbyes and I scanned the area.
I caught sight of a police cruiser with a familiar man standing next to it. I bolted over to him and leaped into his arms "Daddy!" I cheered happily, he wrapped his arms around me and said "Hey, little moon, how have you been?" "Better now" I nuzzled my face into his chest and breathed in the scent of pinewood, gunpowder, and his cologne. Odd but nostalgic. Our reunion was interrupted by a huffing and puffing Bella who screeched out "Where were you?! I had to carry all my bags by myself!" Dad and I broke apart and he looked between Bella's five bags and my two with a frown.
"Why do you have so few bags, little moon?" He asked, I shrugged and said "This is all I have" he frowned and said "I'll ask your aunts and cousins to take you shopping" my face lit up at the mention of my extended family the Clearwaters and the Blacks.
"What about me?!" Bella demanded stomping her foot like the bratty child she is "Isabella Marie, don't start that nonsense! Renee may allow you to be an abusive brat, but I won't tolerate it! If you step even a toe out of line it's boot camp for you!" That shut Bella up.
Dad took our bags and carried them to the car. Bella quickly got into the front seat and I climbed into the back. Dad wordlessly drove us home.
A small two story white house that resides at the edge of town near the forest. The house was there since Forks was founded. It's been updated and remodeled since then but still held a vintage charm to it. Dad parked in front of the house and let me out first before we grabbed the bags. Bella didn't bother to help she only stood in front of the door impatiently while we carried her heavy bags inside.

A bad habit that dad had, was no taste in decor and trusting Renee's taste. I'd have to speak to him about redecorating. Summer was coming soon and his two month camping and fishing trip with Uncle Billy and Uncle Harry and their sons would be the perfect timing. I just needed to figure out how to get Bella out of the house.
He led us upstairs and explained the bedroom situation "To the left is my room" he pointed to the first door on the left.

He then pointed to the door across from his room "To the right is the bathroom. I cleared some shelves for you Bella" "Right, one bathroom" she grumbled "Then we have the hall closet to the right. It has spare sheets, quilts, towels, rags, batteries, and lightbulbs just in case and a flashlight with some candles and matches. Across from that is Bella's room" he then reached over and opens a door.

"The lady at the store said that purple was popular theses days...." Dad started awkwardly "Purple's cool..?" She hated it. Orange and brown were her go to. Dad then set her bags down and went to the last door at the end of the hallway "Esmeray, this is your room. You'll be staying in Grams and Gramps room" my eyes widened in realization. He was giving me the master bedroom with the private bathroom that Bella didn't know about!

"What?! That's completely unfair! I'm the oldest! Esmeray's just a bastard!" Dad dragged Bella out and shut the door behind him I heard them arguing through the door but ignored them as I looked around. Not even Grams was safe from Renee's tyranny.
It looks as if the only changes made was cleaning. Bella suddenly barged I with dad no where in sight "Give me my room" she ordered pompously. I sat on my bed and simply said "No" she blinked not expecting that "Excuse me?!" "This is my room Isabella. Now get out" she raised her hand snd slapped me. I heard static as she yelled at me drawing dad's attention as he dragged her out and proceeded to ground her. I ignored them in favor of the weird staticky sound in my head that formed a deep masculine voice.
'Welcome home, my child.'

That voice.... Could the man from my dream be real?
