Never Returned (twilight story)

Taken Away/ Only you (AE)

Hello my darlings! Here it is, the beginning of the Alternate Ending! We will simply continue from Taken Away, editing the last bit...

Bella’s POV

Oh God. Oh God. They are holding Ebony captive, forced me onto a plane, and were now bringing me to some underground mansion. Who are these people?! Err, correction, who are these vampires?

They all had blood red eyes, unlike the Cullen’s golden, and those three men acted likeee kings. In fact, they were sitting on thrones while some other vampire held my precious child and another, that wretched one who attacked me, stood by. I had watched how his copy had simply vanished into thin air, some sort of illusion. The vampire in me turned red with rage, Damn him, I’ll kill him! I’ll rip out his throat and feast on his blood!

“Bring her a seat Santiago.” The black-haired one, I believe they called Aro, asked. He was the only one who bothered being civil and kind to me, constantly smiling and assuring me everything would be alright.

Of course, I didn’t believe him.

Apparently the one who got me into this mess was Santiago, for he left and soon returned with a chair.

“Please sit.” Aro said, and I did so hesitantly. I didn’t want to sit, but Aro obviously called the shots around here and there was no point in getting him mad. “So, Isabella dear. Will you please tell me who this child is?”

“Ebony.”

“What is she?”

I held my mouth shut, and Aro tisked. “You don’t want the child to suffer now, do you? I’ll give you one more chance. What is she?”

“I don’t know.”

Aro nodded slightly and Ebony screamed, shifting into a wolf and trying to bite the girl who held her.

“Please stop! She’s my daughter!”

Ebony’s wolfly wail stopped and she whimpered slightly.

“Very good.” Aro commented. “But elaborate for us. Vampires cannot have children, and she is clearly a werewolf; although scentless.”

“I don’t know what she is. I got pregnant by a werewolf as a human.”

“If a human birthed a werewolf child, it would still have a scent and would not change so early.” One of the other leaders said.

“I was attacked by a vampire, who bit me but was killed before he killed me. I changed, and the child was removed from my stomach. She managed to survive.”

“You’re a newborn, this child is months old. Aro, she lies!”

“Do you want the child harmed?”

“No! She was just born; she ages differently.”

“Hmm.” Aro mused. Suddenly the door burst open, and something rushed at me. As it clutched me in it’s arms, I began tearlessly sobbing with relief. “Jacob, I love you." I mumbled into his shirt.

~~~~

My voice was barely a whisper, “Only you. I love you. Only you.” I chanted it like some sort of spell, one that made me feel better. He stopped me, rubbing my hair.

“Bella, I love you too. I always have, and always will. You are mine, remember? Ever since that kiss up on the cliff, you have loved me, but I have loved you so much longer.”

With those beautiful words,  all I could feel was a mix of sadness mixed with joy. I could feel it flowing out of me with my tearless sobs. I loved him so much, but they still had my baby. “Jacon.” I whispered. “They have Ebony.”

“I’ll take care of it.” He assured me, stroking my head.

Clap. Clap. Clap. “How amusing.” Aro sneered. “But, you shouldn’t interrupt.”

Jacob didn’t say anything, he merely growled and held me tighter. This was not good, as vampires hated werewolves.

Aro waved him over. “Come here. Your hand please.” Why would he want his hand? But Jacob obeyed, and Aro closed his eyes as he gripped his hand. “How marvelous.  A werewolf in love with a vampire. Of course, I knew what you were before, but this devotion is… sweet. ” He opened his eye and peeked at me. Suddenly he let go of Jacob’s hand. “Well, it seems like you don’t know much about the child. But-”

The door slammed open again, and the guards threw in a heap of people. Aro simply looked annoyed that his sentence was interrupted. The guards hastily bowed. “Lord Aro, these creatures were trying to get in.”

Aro waved his hand. “Go. Leave them.” He wrinkled his nose. “God, there are even more of them. They smell horrib-”

“Werewolves and vampires! Disgusting! I held my mouth for the first, but I cannot stand this! ” Another one of the main three exclaimed. I wasn’t sure about his name, I think he was Caius, but Aro cast an annoyed glance at being interrupted once more.

“Who are you? And why is a vampire travelling with-”

“Bella!” Edward cried, Aro was getting extremely annoyed with all the interruptions. But Alice quickly grabbed Edward before he could rush over, staring straight at Aro. But realization struck him. He saw me, here. Beside Jacob. In his arms. He seemed to finally realize that I had chosen Jake, that Edward had hurt me too much for me to possibly come crawling back to him. Leah eyed Jacob and I, giving us a small and amused smirk. She seemed to enjoy Edward’s pain, but I still felt a bit of guilt.

Oh God. They are happy.  For forsaking Edward, the werewolves were happy. Even lovable Sam, who always cared about everybody, wore an even bigger smile than usual. I knew, if I were human, I would have burst into tears right then and there, because of the guilt. I loved the Cullens, I wanted to stay in their family, but how could I after rejecting Edward? But I wasn’t a human. I was a vampire. And all I could do was stare at them, from the safety of Jacob’s arms. As I looked at Edward, I tried to convey everything. I’m sorry, we can’t be together. We aren’t even the same. And even though I love you, I cannot bring myself back to you. Oh Edwars, I’m sorry.But you broke me, and I cannot forgive that, I felt a sob catch in my throat, but Alice’s voice brought me back to reality.

“I am sorry to interrupt like this, but we simply came to assure Bella and her child’s safety.”

Aro eyed them. “And yet you brought werewolves. Now give me your hand child.”

Alice dutifully approached, giving Aro her hand. He closed his eyes once more, giving a faint gasp of surprise. “The future!” He suddenly let go of Alice’s hand and turned to me. “Odd girl, befriending werewolves like you do. But she knows a bit more about your child, and it proves your story true. Except one part, you said you don’t know the father.”

“But I don’t!”

“She doesn’t, I only just found out.”

I stared at Alice and whispered in a voice so low that humans could not hear. “You do?”

Alice’s eyes travelled slowly to Ebony, who still struggled in that blond girl’s arm, then to me. “I received a call from Carlisle. He’s been doing tests, and he found the father. It’s-”
