Bella's POV:

It was after an hour and a half that the others started to come back. Fortunately before that, me and Edward calmed down. We decided to wait and see for now. Poor Alice didn't know exactly what was going on. Edward wanted to show her the book but we couldn't find it anywhere. We didn't know what happened with it. We tried to tell Alice but it was no use. Both of us were mute when we tried.

So when the others were back from hunting we just sat down and talked. Though Edward didn't talk, just stared ahead with a blank expression. I knew he was searching the area for any minds. He couldn't read the dark angel's mind but he hoped that he could at least sense him.

Before the others got back he had made me promise that I wouldn't leave the house till we knew it was safe.

Suddenly I felt him tense beside me and I immediately looked at him. His eyes became blacker and he looked at Irina.

"Don't ever think of her like that again." He whispered in deadly calm what gave me chills. I saw Irina nod hurriedly. The room fell silent as Edward slowly let up from his rigid posture.

"Khm, Edward maybe you should hunt." Carlisle suggested but Edward was shaking his head before he could even finish his sentence. "Look, you are thirstier then you thought. You should hunt because your temper is really short."

Edward growled. "Short?" He repeated in disbelief and I saw that Carlisle was regretting that he didn't think about Edward's reaction beforehand. "You didn't hear her thoughts. She thinks that Bella was nothing just because her mate, Laurent, got killed when he tried to kill Bella." He hissed and Carlisle frowned.

"Irina! You should apologise to my Son." He ordered her sternly. Irina quickly did so but the air was still tense.

"Edward.. I really think you should hunt dear. Your eyes are black and a little fresh air will be good for you." Edward sighed and looked at Esme. I knew he could never deny her. I nodded at him a little and I knew he saw it from the corner of his eyes.

He looked at Jasper for a moment in disbelief befrore he stood up with a sigh and went outside. I knew he wouldn't spend much time out hunting because the dark angel was probably close. I wanted to go with him but that would have been too suspicious. So I stayed back and chatted with Alice.

Not everyone was present when Edward lashed out his anger at Irina. Carmen, Rose, Emmett, Tanya and Chase were still hunting.

As we were enjoying ourselves my phone rang in my pocket. I took it out and excused myself and went outside to answer it. I was at the edge of the forest when I saw that the caller was Edward. I took it quickly hoping that everything was okay.

"Edward? Is everything alright?"

"No." There was a moment silence and my stomach lurched as I thought about what had gone wrong while he was away. "Nothing is okay. Look, I can't take it anymore. I am sick of you. I can't trust you. I don't even know for sure who you are." He said and I stopped breathing.

"Wh-What happened?" I tried to say without breaking down.

"I just realised that there are much better people out there who want me." He stated simply.

"No wait!"

"Bye." And the call went dead.

"Edward.." I choked. The phone slipped from my hand. I didn't hear it as it fell to the ground.

My vision became blury as his words echoed in my head. No, no, NO! After all we had been through. He wouldn't do this. Right?

"Isa!" I didn't know how much time passed with me standing there without moving until I heard Chase call out my name. He came through the trees. He was panting and looked at me worriedly. Than the next second he was by my side. "Isa, what happened? Isa?" He grabbed me by my shoulders and shook me. "Isa look at me! Concentrate!"

"Wh-What is it?" I tried not to show how I was breaking with every second a little bit more.

"It's about Edward.." My head shot up.

"What?! What happened?!"

"I saw him in the forest while I was heading back. He was with Tanya..." Tanya..

"I just realised that there are much better people out there who want me."

Was he with her? Did he leave me becasue of her?! I wanted to die but for real this time.

"Anyway, what I could catch was that Tanya was forcing him to talk on the phone with someone. I think it was you, right? We need to get to them." He said pulling on my arms what got me to get myself together and start to move.

"Are you sure?" He was forced by that witch?! I will kill her!

"Dead sure. Tanya wanted me to be part of it. At first I liked the plan that she would get Edward and I would get you, but then I realised that you are too important for me to hurt you like that." He rumbled nervously.

"Can you show me where you saw them?" He nodded and grabbed my arm. He pulled me in the forest and we started to run.

He was running with incredible speed which didn't surprise me because he was a newborn.

After some time the scenery became familiar but by then we arrived. We were at the baseball field. I looked around. It was getting dark and the forest looked dark purple.

"Chase, why are we here?" I looked at him in alarm. He looked at the other end of the field and when I saw what he was looking I wanted to scream in frustration.

"So we meet again Isabella." He smirked.
