Twist of Intuition (Twilight: Emmett Cullen/OC)

Chapter 3

6 months later

William brought me all over Romania. We started out small; the first city we went to had a population of around 1000 people. When we arrived in the town all I could think about was blood. There were hearts beating everywhere around me; but I latched on to Williams arm to keep me from attacking and listened for anyone who was committing a crime. I didn't forget the promise I made to myself that first night of being a newborn, I would never forget it.

I found one man sneaking out of a person's home with a bag filled with stolen items. I had killed him quickly to try and ease his pain, he was a criminal but he was still a human. Will said he would deal with the bodies as we went as I had no idea what to do with them. I only came across four more people in that town that were criminals. I found that each place Will took us too was bigger than the last, not that I was complaining. I was glad of it; a bigger city meant more criminals for me to drink from.

We just left the city of Constanta and we were now at the capitol city of Romania, Bucharest. Will and I found a very nice home or should I say mansion that was obviously owned by a wealthy couple on the outskirts of the city. We searched around the home until we found an open window and climbed in through it and to the upstairs hallway and as Will went into what I assumed was the master bedroom with the two heartbeats coming from behind the door.

I explored the house moving downstairs to the living room and parlor running my hands over the pillows and admiring the artwork on the walls before becoming bored and standing at the bottom of the stairs until Will came down. He winked at me as I walked past him and up to the bedroom. There was hardly any blood left in the room but I could still smell it. The man and the woman were still in there bed now lifeless and decaying with bite marks on their throats. Paying no attention to the smell of it I walked over to the closet to find a new dress as mine was dirty. I felt angry when he killed innocent people like these unsuspecting humans. I wanted to stop him but something just wouldn't let me cause him harm.

One thing I learned since traveling with Will was his like of expensive things. I opened up the closet and could not disagree with him as I ran my delicate looking fingers now free from calluses over the fabric of the woman's dresses. I walked along them then stopped when I found one of the nicest ones yet that didn't have those god awful giant shoulders that were coming into style.

After putting it on I looked at my reflection in the mirror, it fit nicely over my form. I fixed my hair that was slightly out-of-place from all the running we just did, not that it really mattered as I was going to be running again soon but still. I finished with my hair and studied my eyes that were slowly turning a darker shade of red closer to Will's but not quite there yet. Will had explained to me that as a vampire my eyes would always be red from the blood we drank and they were only so bright in the beginning because of my human blood that lingered in my tissues.

"Look what I found, Amor. A beautiful diamond necklace just for you." Will said coming into the closet and moving my hair to my shoulder and then putting the large teardrop necklace around my neck.

"Thank you." I said smiling at him in the mirror while fingering the necklace.

He smiled in return and then with a nod took my hand. "Now, would you help me with these bodies? Wouldn't want them to stink up our temporary home now would we?"

"Most certainly not." I replied watching him pick up the man's body and swinging it over his shoulder. I felt that anger again at him for killing these innocents but it was taken over by my affection for him. It was starting to bug me how every time I had an ill thought towards him that it would be combated by that affection. Sure, he was great to look at and that brought on a feeling of lust; but I had no idea what he had done to make me feel affection for him. If anything I should be hating him for condemning me to this life, but I didn't. I pondered this as I picked up the women's body that was as light as a feather and then went over to the window silently jumping down as I waited for Will. Not a second after I landed he joined me and we ran off into the forest until we found a small pond where we dropped the bodies on the edge of the water.
