And to love in this wild world,
Is the bravest thing you could ever do.
The Cullen family needs help, they need witnesses of their own to protect their members. One of those witnesses? None other than the daughter of the Volturi, a girl that rebelle...
A few seconds after Carlisle left Jasper walked into the office. He sat next to me on Carlisle's desk and handed me a styrofoam cup. I could see how he was looking at it, his pulse jumped in his neck.
"You don't have to stay." I told him.
"Edward told me why you needed it." he replied.
"I figured he would, any questions you have about me are now answered. Everyone's questions are answered."
"Not every question."
We spent an hour in Carlisle's office talking about nonsense, things that weren't important but we enjoyed each other's company. I know his siblings and everyone else can hear us, it's not something I wanted to dwell on though. I'm very curious about this man and I want to satisfy my own curiosity.
Three days passed while everyone got to know each other. There's a great group of vampires here, many with their own gifts. I won't deny that I'm smitten along with Renesmee with Benjamin's gift. Nessie and I have connected a lot, we have this gift of communication that she only shares with her father. She enjoys sharing it with another woman and she's got me wrapped around her finger just like the rest of the adults here.
Bella does me the favor of letting me shower at her house since there are so many people in Carlisle's house. I know that it's not necessary but it's a habit that I kept and I intend to keep for the rest of my existence.
I'm sort of obsessed with sweaters and beanies right now so I had on some ripped jeans, a plaid shirt tied around my waist with a burgundy long sleeve knit shirt, white knit beanie and black boots. It's important to me to be as hygienic as possible, I like to smell good and be clean.

One particular afternoon a group of adults was standing out back with us, Zafrina and I were trying to show Edward and Bella our gift. Only Bella was immune to it, she's immune to quite a lot of things but Jasper isn't, interestingly enough.
"If she weren't holding my hand right now, I could swear this was real." Edward said.
"I don't see anything." she said.
"Edward, you didn't tell me your wife was a shield." Eleazar said.
"A shield, I didn't think of that. It's not like any shield I've ever met. Questo è molto bene, this is very good." I said, thinking about it more.
"What's a shield?" Bella asked.
"The ones I've met are so different." Edward said, looking between his wife, Eleazar and me.
"It's a defensive talent. Renata's is so different." I told them.
"It's why I couldn't read your mind, even before." Edward told his wife.
"It's why my father can't either." I told her.
"You have a very powerful gift." Eleazar said.
"Oh yeah, she's a shield alright. That should have put her on her ass." Kate said, resting her hand on Bella's shoulder.
