Protect ⚜️VICTORIA⚜️ [1]

Battle of Love

I stood at the top of the mountains as Bella argued with Jacob about marrying Edward. I looked at Edward. "I know you love her, Stiles. But she has to die." Edward told me. "Shut the fuck up, Edward." I told him walking off.

I looked at the horizon and wondered about Victoria. She needs to run. I can't have her die. I can't lose anyone else in my life. Undead or alive.

I felt a tug in my gut and knew she was near before Edward announced it. "She's close. I can hear her thoughts." He stated.

Minutes later, Riley Biers exited the woods. He was attacked by Seth and the two began fighting. The tugging became stronger as I turned around and found Victoria. "V." I whispered. She looked at me with a smile. She was knocked aside by Edward.

The two of them fought to the death as I watched on in horror by Bella. She wanted Victoria dead. I wanted her alive.

Edward held her by the neck. "NO! STOP!" I shouted running at Edward punching him in the face. Ignoring the sharp pain in my hand as I broke it on impact with his impenetrable skin.

He looked at me wide-eyed. "Stiles-" He started letting go of Victoria. She kicked him away as I stood defensively in front of her. "STAY BACK! NO MORE!" I shouted.

"Stiles. She's a killer." Edward warned. "Said the Lion about the Tiger." I spat. "If you want to kill her. You have to kill me too." I said. "Stiles, no." Victoria voiced.

"I can't let you die, V. You mean too much to me." I whispered. "Why make the army of not to kill Bella?" Edward asked after the moment of silence.

"Because...I wanted to protect Stiles. From the Volturi. If I made the army it would provide a diversion that could allow me to escape with Stiles. Take him somewhere safe while the Volturi dealt with you and the Newborns." Victoria explained. "This was never about Bella?" Edward asked. "Not since I met Stiles." She answered.

"You just...wanted to protect Stiles." Edward pieced together. "That's all I ever wanted. I got over James when I met Stiles. Got over my vengeance on killing Bella when I met him. I only care about Stiles. And his safety. Nothing else matters to me. Not even my own life." Victoria voiced.

"V-" I began. "It's true. I'd rather die than see you get hurt, Peaches." She whispered leaning her forehead against mine. "Oh no." Edward stated. Victoria froze. "They're here." He added. "Who? Who's here?" I asked.

"The Volturi." Victoria answered.
