Harley quickly sped towards the Cullen house. When she entered the living room of the house, she saw Laurant standing there talking to her mate and his brother. Faster than anyone could stop her, Harley vamped over to him and hoisted him into the air by his throat.
"What are you doing here?" Harley growled as she lifted the dark-skinned vampire up into the air.
"Harley, love, please release him. He came to warn us about James," Carlisle said as Jasper and Sherlock joined their mate.
Harley continued to glare at Laurant with her black eyes, the Butcher in charge and just waiting for the nomadic vampire to make a wrong move. After feeling Jasper placing his hand on her shoulder, Harley dropped Laurant to the ground. Laurant fixt his clothes as he slowly stood up not wanting to have Harley attack him again.
"I have heard of your reputation as the Butcher," Laurant said.
Sherlock scoffed at this; he knew firsthand how dangerous his mate's alter ego was and he was surprised to see that Laurant still had his arms attached to his body.
"I've grown tired of James' games," Laurant said, "I believe I would like to change my diet."
Carlisle nodded at told Laurant that he would be in touch with their cousins in Denali and that they will be expecting them. As Carlisle, Laurant, and Harley walked towards the front door, the door opened, and Edward walked in with Isabella. As soon as Laurant left Harley walked up to her sister and back handed her across the face sending the younger Swan to the floor and when Edwrd went to attack the older Swan only to have her pinning him to the ground. As Edward tried to pry Harley's hand from around his throat, she leaned down so that she was right next to his ear.

"I will make sure I kill you slowly if anything happens to my father and sadly because he cares for Isabella, despite her not respecting him, I will rip you apart should anything happen to my sister," Harley said in a dangerously low growl before looking at her sister who was still on the floor. "And you. How could you say that to him?"
"It was the only way for him to let me leave, Harley," Isabella shouted at her sister as she slowly got up off the floor and Harley released Edward who decided to stand off to the side.
"You could have said that you were going to spend the night at Jessica's or Angela. I swear to God Isabella if dad didn't care about you then I would have killed you before the nomads could," Harley said just for Carlisle to lead his mate away from her sister.
Isabella looked back at Edward who slowly walked over to her examining the large bruise forming on her cheek. Edward shook his head as reality started to sink in. He feared the Butcher more that Major and he knew that despite Harley not liking her sister the older Swan sister did care for her. When Edward and Isabella walked into the garage to see everyone getting ready to protect Isabella, except for Harley and Rosalie who stood next to each other as they leaned up against the counter. At seeing everyone rushing around to protect her, Harley caught the smug smile on Isabella's face.
