Edward Cullen thought his future with Bella was set in stone-his blood singer, his mate, his forever. But when Alice has a startling new vision, everything he believed begins to unravel.

[14] Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
[15] Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
[16] Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.
[17] Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.
[18] If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. [19] Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.
[20] On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”
[21] Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Inside a small dorm room, golden light streamed through the window, illuminating a girl with delicate blonde hair, her movements slow and methodical as she packed her suitcase.
The girl's graceful hands folded the last of her clothes, her phone pressed between her ear and shoulder, the voice of her father on the other end of the line filling the otherwise quiet space.
“Papa, I’m just packing my things. Tomorrow’s my last day here, and next week I’ll be graduating.” Her voice was calm, but the frown on her face betrayed her frustration.
Her father’s concerned voice made her pause, the weight of his words deepening the lines on her forehead. She listened patiently before interrupting, her tone softening as a small smile crept across her face.
“Papa, I told you, it’s fine. I’m re-enrolling in Forks High for fun, just so I can spend more time with you. When I graduate there, you can come see me. No need to worry.” Her voice was soothing, as though she was the one taking care of him, her father’s well-being always at the forefront of her mind.
A loud, impatient voice from outside her dorm pierced the peaceful moment. "Lia!! Why are you so slow?!" The irritation was evident in the girl’s tone, and the girl sighed, her grip tightening briefly around the phone.
“It’s nothing important, Papa,” she reassured him with a forced smile.
“Just the girls I’m stuck with. All they care about is partying and drinking… You know how it is with human females. And don’t worry, I’m never going to drink. I’d rather drink river water than alcohol.” Her voice took on a slightly disgusted tone at the thought of alcohol, her nose wrinkling as if she could smell it already.
