chapter fifteen. bella, bella, bella
SO far as they knew, the Volturi hadn't come for them. No one had heard of any movement from the coven, travelling across worlds to entrap the new vampire; Alice hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary from the group. Nothing different had happened.
Georgine had spent the next few days building up her courage to hunt down an animal, lurking lonesomely within the forest. Again, she struggled every now and then to find the right pace of movement for her feet, the right amount of patience for skulking in the shadows of the forest, within the depth of its stomach. It had taken time (God knows they had enough of that), and patience and all the help she was offered, but eventually, she seemed to get the hang of it.
When she had caught her first one (a cougar!) finally managing to pounce upon its back, watching it struggle helplessly, its teeth bared and snapping in a threatening gesture, before finishing it off by snapping its neck, she had drained it dry. Somehow, it seemed to taste better, because she had been the one to catch her dinner and serve it up on her plate. Her teeth were stained red, eyes glistening with glee, watching as Jasper smiled euphorically, proudly. She had jumped into his arms, wrapping them tightly around his neck and bringing him closer to her than ever, as they celebrated━━she had finally began to feel as though her place was slowly cementing itself with the family.
Then, there were the days that consisted of Georgine practicing to use her powers. Admittedly, she was worried in the beginning━━she didn't want something so dangerous, like before, to happen again. For all she knew, she could completely lose all control of it, and end up hurting one of them, someone who she came to care for, to love, and that was the last thing she wanted. So, she made sure to continue her practices as far away as she could get from the house, still making sure to stay somewhere in Forks.
Originally, nothing had happened. She was concentrating as hard as she could, thinking about things that made her angry, remembering back to when Emmett had attempted to beat Jasper to a pulp, but nothing seemed to come from her. She thought, maybe, she needed to see something with her own eyes, rather than a memory, a recollection, to get her emotions running high, and conjuring up a storm. Georgine had told Jasper that, the next time she saw him, and instantly, he was forcing her back outside not even a minute after, claiming he was going to help her.
Georgine was fretting over what stunt he might end up pulling off in front of her to get her upset and angry, but he denied the assumption. Instead, he declared that he would be manipulating her emotions so she felt a certain way, carefully watching to see what else she could conjure up. She had been fully nothing but emptiness, until she switched them to pure bliss, feeling as though she was floating on a cloud, high up in the sky, where no one━━nothing━━could touch her. She had felt free.
