DismayandRoses
Seeing Edward nearly lose Bella in childbirth and having to fight for their lives with the volturi makes Jasper pray, to whatever God is out there, that his mate has already been turned or that he has no mate at all. Unfortunately his pleas were denied.
The cullen coven has less than a few years left in Forks Washington until people start to notice the unusual aging patterns of the family, or rather lack thereof. This makes for very inconvenient timing when Jasper meets Charlotte Reid, his mate. Once he caught her scent there was no denying that he was irrevocably bound to her for all eternity. Love, lust, and the overwhelming need to protect her dominates his mind all hours of the day.
While his mind is screaming at him to go to her and guard her with his life, the little voice in his subconscious tells him if he stays he will surely end up killing her himself.
