I WAS WITH ALICE, GOING OVER A FEW WEDDING IDEAS. I'd told her she wasn't planning mine and Jasper's wedding but this wasn't planning, just browsing some details. I couldn't help it; I was too excited. Shopping for wedding thrilled me, and Alice was the perfect person to share it with.

She had already shown me themes, bridesmaids' dresses, designs even my wedding dress. Alice always went overboard. Bella and Edward's wedding had been proof but it was breathtaking every time.

Jasper and I hadn't set a date yet, so Alice didn't know which theme would be best. I did have an idea, June. A June wedding. Perfect.

Suddenly, Emmett and Zane appeared, eyeing the magazines scattered across the floor.

"What the hell happened in here?" Zane asked, standing beside Alice.

"Wedding planning," Jasper and I said in unison.

"I could've sworn you didn't want to start planning so soon," Emmett teased.

Before I could answer, Alice gasped sharply. Her eyes widened, and a shiver ran down my spine. A sudden, stabbing pain erupted in my temples, forcing me to clutch my head.

A scream tore from my throat, sharp and raw. Jasper's hands gripped mine, steadying me. "Delilah! What's happening? Baby, talk to me!"

I couldn't speak my mind was flooded with visions. Flashes of color, movement, and emotion collided all at once. I could feel panic, fear, sickness, and something darker war. My hands shook as I tried to decipher it all.

Bella...

Edward...

Baby...

Sickness...

War...

Each word slammed into me, accompanied by fleeting images: Bella clutching her stomach, Edward pacing, shadows of unknown threats, flashes of light and darkness I couldn't understand. My vision spun, and I felt like I was drowning in someone else's pain.

Jasper's voice cut through the chaos. "Delilah! Focus on me, baby! Talk to me!"

I gasped, trying to ground myself. My eyes glowed red for a moment, involuntarily, before the power faded slightly. I clutched Jasper's arms, trying to make sense of the words. They were fragmented, broken... but urgent.

Alice cried out beside me. "She's gone. I can't see Bella's future anymore!"

Panic surged through me. I swallowed, forcing my mind to calm down. "Find my phone," I ordered sharply. My voice shook, but it carried authority.

Jasper didn't hesitate. He bolted to our room, returning moments later with my phone. I snatched it and dialed Bella, trembling.

"Bella?"

"Are you alright?" I asked, my voice tight with fear. The rest of the family moved toward the living room, Carlisle standing beside Esme, his eyes full of concern.

"I... I'm not a hundred percent sure," Bella admitted, her voice trembling.

"What's wrong? Tell me!" I pressed. I had seen fragments of something terrifying something I had to understand.

"I just..." She faltered. Then, hesitantly, "Delilah? Alice? What did you see?"

Alice looked down, visibly shaken, and Zane wrapped an arm around her protectively.

"Here's Carlisle," I said, passing the phone to him. He took it immediately, calm but tense, his amber eyes sharp.

"Has Edward been harmed?" Carlisle asked, steady but concerned.

"No," Bella replied quickly.

A tense silence fell over the room. Then, in a small, almost fearful voice, Bella added: "I know it sounds impossible... but I think I'm pregnant."

The words hit like a physical blow. Every vampire in the room gasped. I looked at Jasper his amber eyes were wide with disbelief, mirroring my own shock.

All the excitement, the wedding plans, the anticipation it all suddenly felt fragile, like it could shatter at any moment.

And somewhere deep inside, I knew this was just the beginning.
