The sudden pounding at the front door made Leah frown as she looked at the clock at the side of the bed; she furrowed her brow wondering who could be knocking at three o'clock in the morning. 

Aiden groaned softly turning over and wrapped his arm around his girlfriend as he attempted to ignore the banging at the door. 

Leah rolled her eyes annoyed before she shoved Aiden out of bed with a smirk before she turned over so that she could go back to sleep. 

"Someone is at the door," the she-wolf murmured innocently as she peeked at her boyfriend, who huffed annoyed as he stared at her annoyed for a moment before he stood up and headed downstairs, he hoped that whoever it was knocking on the door was waking him up early for a good reason. 

Ripping on the front door, Aiden stared confused at Alice who had her hand raised to continue knocking on the door; she looked at him for a moment while Jasper stood a little behind her. 

"Do you have any idea what time it is?" Aiden asked furiously, he should have known that it was the Cullens; he hoped to God that this wasn't to tell him that Bella had gone on a newborn rampage and they needed to stop her before it was too late. 

"Carlisle sent us, something has happened," Alice said as Leah appeared behind Aiden, the she-wolf glared at the vampire while Aiden looked at her confused; he didn't know what it was but he had a feeling that this wasn't going to end well. 

"What could have happened that required you to wake me at three in the morning?" Aiden asked still a little annoyed; Leah glanced at her boyfriend while Alice shifted nervously, she knew that they needed help and she could only hope that the Charmed ones would know what to do.

Paul snarled softly under his breath as his wolf form came to a stop outside the Cullens mansion, he looked at Amelia as she climbed off his back and trailed her fingers through his dark silver fur. 

"I don't want to be here either but Aiden called and he said it was important," Amelia murmured as Jacob appeared from the forest, he looked at the witch who shrugged her shoulders before Alice approached them; she offered the three a small smile as she lead them inside where everyone else was gathered. 

"What is going on?" Paul asked as Amelia moved to stand next to her siblings, she looked at them confused before looking at Bella. 

Amelia was surprised that not only was Bella still a human but she looked like death and Rosalie seemed to be protecting her from something. 

"Bella's pregnant," Carlisle revealed making Jacob balk as he looked at the girl that he had once loved. 

Alicia looked at her sister as Amelia bit her lip nervously; she was starting to feel the intense feelings that clouded the room and she knew that this wasn't going to end well. 

"Can't you get that thing out of her," Jacob asked making Amelia glare at him while Edward sighed, Rosalie snarled softly at the wolf; she couldn't understand why everyone was treating something so innocent as if it was evil. 

"That thing is a baby," Amelia stated annoyed making Paul look at her, he frowned as he watched his girlfriend while Esme and Rosalie nodded their heads in agreement. 

"That thing is a monster, it will kill Bella and who knows what will happen when it's born," Jacob snapped making Amelia glare at him, she didn't like how everyone was acting something that hadn't asked to be made; it didn't ask for this hatred that it was getting.

"We have to destroy the child," Aiden murmured softly making Amelia glare at him, he flinched back knowing that this wasn't going to go down well with his sister; anyone could see that this was a sensitive subject for Amelia. 

"Over my dead body," Amelia spat making Aiden stare at her stunned, Alicia climbed to her feet and looked between her older siblings; she had a feeling that this was going to shatter the Power of Three. 

"Amelia let them do this," Paul whispered softly making Amelia frown as she looked at him, taking a deep breath she stepped in front of Bella; she wasn't going to let them force anything on the human. 

"If you want to attempt to destroy that child... then you'll have to go through me," Amelia announced making everyone stare at her shocked at her decision; Rosalie smirked as she moved to stand next to Amelia, she was grateful that she had someone on her side since she didn't think she could do this alone.

"Thank you," Bella whispered softly as Amelia settled on the couch near her, the brunette nodded her head waiting for Paul to drop off some of her stuff for her. 

Paul wasn't pleased that she had sided with Bella about the baby, however he was willing to stand by her. 

"Don't mention it," Amelia said looking over at Rosalie, who was carrying some dinner for the two of them; she smiled at the blonde vampire as she set down the tray on the coffee table. 

Those of the Cullen family, who were against Bella having her baby, were avoiding the living room in case the witch decided to blow them up. Amelia flashed a smile at Rosalie while Bella nibbled on the dish that Rosalie had prepared for her at Amelia's suggestion. 

"So what will happen now Carlisle says the baby is growing too fast," Rosalie asked making Amelia nod her head as she heard Paul and Emmett walking into the living room; Paul was carrying a duffle bag and looked to be a little tense about being here. 

Amelia climbed to her feet and moved towards her wolf boyfriend while Emmett moved to speak with Rosalie; Paul offered her a weak smile as he set the duffle bag down. 

"You sure about this?" Paul asked gently making Amelia nod her head as she watched him, Aiden and Alicia weren't going to be happy about her choosing Bella's side but she needed to do this. 

"You know that I can't help you with this," Paul murmured as Amelia watched him, Jacob had made it clear that until the child was destroyed that no one was to help Amelia, Rosalie or Bella and anyone that was helping them would be punished. 

"I know and I'm sorry," Amelia said, Paul nod his head sadly he offered her a small smile as he pulled her into a hug; he closed his eyes knowing that it was going to be a long time before he saw her again. 

"If you ever need me," Paul whispered making Amelia nod her head softly, she felt tears pricking in her eyes as she looked up at him; she hated that he couldn't be here with her but she understood why. 

Paul looked at Rosalie and Emmett, he hoped that they would keep his imprint safe while the others planned to take Bella and force her to abort the child; they hoped to get her protectors unaware and then get rid of the monster that she was carrying. 

"We'll look after her," Rosalie promised nodding at the wolf, she disliked the wolves greatly but for what Amelia was doing for Bella; Rosalie was willing to look after the brunette. 

Paul nodded his head before he kissed Amelia's lips, he hoped that she knew what she was doing and that when they finally got rid of the child she wouldn't be too upset with him.
