IT WAS NEARLY A WEEK AFTER THE CULLENS ARRIVED AT THE DENALI HOUSEHOLD, AND XANDER WAS CLOSE TO SNAPPING EDWARD'S NECK. Every time he saw the mindreader's face, all he wanted to do was slam his fist into it. Camden and Emmett had both had to stop him from acting on those violent urges, while Rosalie seemed content with encouraging it. And Xander still hadn't talked to Carlisle.
Until today.
It wasn't by choice. Carlisle had caught him as soon as he and Cam had returned from hunting. The blonde doctor was waiting by the porch when they got back, hands clasped in front of him. His expression was calm, but Xander could see the emotions whirling in his eyes.
"Xander, would you care to join me on a walk?" Carlisle used a hand to gesture to a trail beside the house, eyes hopeful.
Xander, however, wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone ━ much less the man who forced him to leave the love of his life.
