The God and Goddess of War

chapter 7

Not my story

Bella's Pov

"So who's Victoria?" I asked casually once we were seated, Jasper clinging to me possessively as I relaxed against him. Whoever this woman was it had them worried. Due to my seemingly uncaring statement everyone looked my way, my fingers running through my Jaspers hair as his emotions filled me. He was already planning a strategy and I couldn't have been prouder of him, we really were matched perfectly.

"Victoria is a vampire who has a strange obsession with Edward, she plans to kill us all since if she can't have him no one can" Alice stated and I felt a small smile tug at the corner of my lips at how much this vampire was risking for a already mated one. Once a vampire mated it was for eternity, it was rare to find your mate but it seems the Cullen vampires were incredibly lucky to have found there's. If anything happened to your other half and you loved them like you were destined to, then there was no way you could live without them. I knew through and through that if anything happened to Jasper resulting in his death, I wouldn't even think twice about following him only seconds after.

"Yea so why don't you run along while we talk tactics" Rose said in a patronising tone causing Jasper to snarl at her, effectively shutting her up. Did she not know I had the most experience here, out of everyone including my Jasper?

"How much do they know of me?" I asked Jasper with creased brows.

"Finally we can get some answers!" Emmett shouted as he fist pumped the air, I chuckled while Rose was still glaring holes in me. She didn't think I was of any use and just wanted me to fuck off; well that's what I got from her emotions anyway. Jasper looked at me pleadingly and I sighed and nodded, if he wanted me to help him to protect his family then all he had to do was ask.

"You know how I told you all about my past, well I missed out the most important aspect of it" Jasper explained while looking at me, I smiled as the others looked even more confused if that was possible. They were about to get one hell of a shock.

"When I was changed by Maria I was taken to a camp for newborns, hundreds of them but I was a particularly difficult one" he started and I chuckled, I remembered hearing of how Jasper reacted as soon as he had changed. He had so much built in rage that he took it out on everyone and everything; he had been incredibly feared and while I didn't see him until years later it was common knowledge around the camps. Looking around I noticed everyone was listening closely, even though they knew this I figured Jasper didn't talk a lot of his past a lot and while it most likely scared them they couldn't help but get sucked in. As I chuckled they looked at me with slight disgust, not understanding why I would find it amusing but it had been.

"The first few weeks she tried to get me too corporate, if I had of been any other newborn she would have killed me but due to my gift she wanted me. Finally I was controlled enough to listen to her only to get tortured into doing tactics against my will, my army background apparently of use. It wasn't until years later she finally decided to train me to fight, a war coming up and she needed all the help she could get.

She had helped me control my gift to a certain extent to help me calm the newborns when they got in dangerous situations in which they attacked each other, but I had no idea that there was another part of the camp I had never been. Training was done there and the newborns came out of it skilled and in more control, when Maria sent me there I found out why" he continued and I noticed everyone was sucked into the story, I pulled my shield around us tightly so he wouldn't have to feel the pity they felt for him, pity was a pathetic and horrid emotion in my books.
