The Pull

Chapter 26: New Home

Bella P.O.V.

I still can't believe I found my true mate. when Edward left me, I didn't think I could ever get over it . He was supposed to be mine forever but he threw me away like a broken toy he no longer wanted to play with. and broken I was. I thought I would stay that way forever. After all one can hardly survive after losing their 'mate' right? That's when Jasper Whitlock came back into my life. He brought color back into my depressingly dark life. He has made it his mission to make me happy again. He was there for me through the loss of Charlie, never leaving my side. if I hadn't been so caught up in my grief over the loss of my father, I probably would have seen it before. I would have known that Major Jasper Whitlock is my mate! Now that I know that he is mine, I wont ever let anything take him away or come between us.

it has been two weeks since Charlie's funeral. we decided to buy a new house instead of moving back to one of Jasper's other homes. it will be harder for Edward to find us that way. we spent the last week and a half looking at homes all over the u.s. We finally found the perfect place.

It is a beautiful deep green three story house with black shutters and a wrap around porch. it is surrounded on three sides by a dense forest and behind the house is a large mountain. it is truly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen , other than Jasper. it is the perfect house for us . with six bedrooms , we have more than enough room for the whole family o come and visit if they want to. we also have two libraries. I know that seems rediculas but Jasper and I both love to read so it is actually perfect. one is connected to our bedroom and is filled with Jasper's civil war books and all of my favorite classic. the other library is one the main floor and is already almost completely full but with some room left to grow. there is also a game room, music room, a large kitchen, dinning room, and living room. the best part about our new home is that our closest neighbor is over a hundred miles away and the nearest town is 200 miles from us.

we just moved in a few days ago but it already feels like home. Peter, Charlotte, Emmett, and Rosalie decided to come stay with us for the time being. With Edward's threat hanging over our heads, I can't say that I blame them. but in a house this big it really isn't an issue. I sometimes forget they are here until I hear peter or Emmett's booming laughter from across the house.

I have found the transition from being Jasper's friend to his mate to be completely natural. we spend most of our time together but not every moment like I did when I was with Edward. its nice to have a bit of independence and to know that Jasper trusts my judgement. I love that he treats me like his equal and not like a stupid glass doll that needs to be told what to do constantly , like Edward did.

it is so easy to talk to Jasper about anything and everything. but there is one subject we haven't discussed yet. and to be honest I am a little nervous about it. I am scared that Jasper will have the same opinion as Edward did about my change.

I have made up my mind... today will be the day that I ask Jasper if he plans to make me immortal.
