~Two Weeks Later~


"So" Amber tells me as we are washing my car "Joy, she found out that about a thousand years ago there were these deaths in Greece and a great fire that left no one alive. It was mysterious and it killed an entire family"

"Really?" I ask

She nods her head "it was said that another member of the family turned on them causing the death"

"Zephyr did say" I tell her since Bella is listening to music cleaning her truck that she constantly complains about "that his family was murdered"

"Maybe he's trying to get revenge on whoever murdered them" she says "but it doesn't explain where you come into this"

Shrugging my shoulders, we hear a crash and look over jumping seeing Edward on Bella's truck before jumping off "Could you act human?" I demand, he looks our way "cause that wasn't human" only Amber and I aren't happy seeing him, Bella however is.

"I'm going to take you girls to meet my family" Edward says

"Your family?" Amber demands "the same family that hurts innocent animals and not murderous humans?"

"My family" Edward tells us "wants to properly introduce themselves to you girls, hopefully change your minds about your view on us past the animal drinking" doubtful.

"What if they don't like me?" Bella asks

"Possibly" we look over seeing Zephyr behind me and Amber, Bella jumps going into Edward's arms thinking he's going to protect her but even Edward is wary about Zephyr "also girls, if you want to go visit the Cullens I'll be there too"

"I'll go" Amber says "as long as your there"

"Me too" nodding my head "but also we want lunch if your offering lunch"

"They are" nodding his head

"Then lunch" nodding my head, I've been drinking blood lately so that the babies don't kill me.

Edward nods his head "So, Bella? Your worried about not being in a house filled with vampires, but because you don't think they'll approve of you?"

"Glad I amuse you" Bella says as Edward looks over frowning "what's wrong?"

"Where's the girls?" Zephyr asks

"Asleep" I tell him "taking a nap, they ran all around earlier that their all zonked out"

He smiles before whispering to me "I can't wait for these babies to be born" I'm sorry? What did he just say?

"What did you just say?" I ask

"Babies" he repeats "triplets"

"Triplets?!" Amber screeches in excitement and shock, triplets?! Triplets! Three babies! Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god "do you want me to tell the others?" Nodding my head, Amber goes inside to tell our friends in Sibuna about this. Triplets. Triplets. Triplets.

~Zephyr's POV~

The fertility herbs worked. Triplets. I'll bring Leralynn to England to have the babies there since my home in England is very nice and isolated save for the Amun Academic Boarding Institution and the small towns nearby. Plus that alone time I'll make sure Leralynn can trust me, I know she's been questioning about me lately and I can't have her. She needs to fully trust me. Hopefully this family time as she and Amber call it will get her to trust me again. I've been mentioning the Volturi and every bad thing they've done.

"I'll be here no matter what" I assure Leralynn, she nods her head as I hug her and she hugs me back. Edward Cullen soon left when Billy Black a former wolf shifter and current elder comes in with his son the potential wolf shifter.

"Hey" Bella greets them as Leralynn gets out of her shock to stay by my side, ever since what that Paul did I've been making sure Leralynn is protected now more then ever "come to visit your truck?" She asks the Blacks since Jacob helped his dad out of the car.

"Looks good" Jacob tells her as he hands the fish fry from the smell of it to his dad "got that dent out"

"Actually we came to visit your flatscreen, first Mariners game of the season" Billy tells her before looking at me and how I'm holding Leralynn to me "whose this?"

"This is Zephyr" Leralynn introduces me

"I'm the twins father" introducing myself, we shake hands.

"Wow" Jacob says "cold huh?"

"Yeah" Leralynn clicks her tongue as Charlie Swan arrives.

"Plus" Billy says "Jacob wanted to see you girls"

The boy blushes "thanks dad"

Shaking his head "Just keeping it real son"

Charlie come over with some beer "Vitamin R"'

"Well done Chief" Billy tells him "Harry Clearwaters famous homemade fish fry"

"Good man" Charlie tells him handing the beer to him before pushing Billy "here to watch the game Zephyr?"

Nodding my head "Leralynn invited me and we're going to be here"

"You know" Charlie says "at first I didn't trust you given your age, being twice Lera's age but I'm coming around to accepting you" wait till he finds out how I got Leralynn pregnant again.

"Got the animal yet?" Billy asks

"I don't think it was an animal" Charlie tells him.

"Never thought it was" he looks at me and I ignore the look he has.


"Spread the word out on that Rez" Charlie asks "keep the kids out of the woods"

"Don't want anyone else getting hurt" he says

"Charlie" Leralynn fibs "tomorrow Amber and I are having lunch with Rosalie and Alice Cullen"

"Really?" He asks

Nodding her head "Their my distant cousins" I explain him "and they wanted to have lunch with her and Amber"

"What about Bella?" He asks

"She declined" I say "spending time with another friend" he nods his head as Billy doesn't look happy about this "the girls are also coming with"
