As She's Walking Away

Chapter 8

Alice POV

I growled loudly as Jasper shouted at me, I can't even remember how this fight got started.

I heard Bella come into the house but she didn't come up to help me, which is a first, she sat next to Rosalie for a while then went to her room next door and cranked up some rock and roll.

"You bitch," Jasper spat in my face and raised his hand to strike me, I stood in shock, he never went this far, he always left the house, but as his hand started to move towards my face, a blur of brown appeared and smashed him into the wall, the blur turned out to be Bella.

She looked extremely pissed, eyes completely black, venom dripping down her chin as her teeth glistened in the lighting of the room.

Maybe I should be pissed? She has my mate against the wall, probably about to remove his head.

But instead I felt something else...

Amazement

She put the god of war on his ass, and he couldn't even get out of her grip, either due to her stronger then newborn strength, or perhaps a paralyzing gift?

She growled a feral growl and removed the arm he tried to strike me with and he let out a screech, I could see fear in his eyes.

The family that stood around me was watching in amazement and shock. Bella has never lost her cool even when she was a day old.

"Bastard," Bella snarled and spat in his face like he had done to me. We were all watching this unfold with wide eyes.

I couldn't believe the family didn't plan on interfering! They looked like they had been expecting this for a long time.

She snapped her fist back and then forwards. It smashed into his face, his face cracked in multiple places. He snarled but Bella cut him off with a growl that made it sound like he was a kitten compared to her lioness.

Her hand that stayed around his throat began to tighten and I got a vision of her pulling his head off.

I screeched, "no Bella!"

She seemed to snap out of it when she looked at me and she released him and I saw he had many new scars from this fight.

She looked away from me and refused to look at me again.

She cleared her throat, "Rosalie," it must be serious she never called Rosalie by her full name, "escort me on a run please, I can't be here right now." Bella's hands were clenched.

Rosalie went to her side, made her loosen her hands, grabbed one, and they flew out the window, right pass the beaten body of Jasper.

Esme POV

I stood in shock as I looked at the body of Jasper, he was fine, unfortunately...

He is the reason my baby girl isn't happy.

The reason why my beautiful daughter is not with her mate.

I held back the urge to finish him off and looked at Alice coldly, which I have never done, but right now I couldn't help but hate her, she is also a reason.

She was the one who brought him, "get your mate," I growled the word, "fixed up because Carlisle needs to hunt before work tomorrow."

I grabbed Carlisle's hand and dragged him into the woods, there was no way I would let my compassionate mate fix up that home wrecker.

Bella POV

I raced through the tree's, purposely knocking a few down when my anger became too much, I know Rosa has questions for me, but I'm to angry right now, and I don't have the answers.

The vision I had before of Jasper striking my poor girl, and her falling to the ground flashed before my eyes, I heard a deadly growl I'd soon realize was mine and I smashed an upcoming tree into pieces.

"Bella!" My sister shouted from far behind as she tried to match my speeds. I sighed angrily and stopped and she blew past me.

She turned around and ran to my side and looked at me worriedly.

"Bella-baby, are you ok?" She whispered grabbing my hand.

I opened my mind and let her see the entire vision.

How Jasper would've beaten her, removed limbs, pushed his gift  onto her so she'd feel more pain on top of her own.

She gasped, and growled. Rosa doesn't like Alice that much because of the Jasper situation, and her not recognizing our bond, but she felt protective of my girl.

"Oh Bella," she whispered and crushed me against her body.

I let everything I held in for my entire existence spill out and I clutched my older sister and sobbed heavily into her shoulder.
