Chapter 08:

BPOV

“Hello Edward.”

“Bella. I was just calling to check on you. I understand Rose is not having to sneak around you. I’m glad.”

“I’m glad you are glad Edward.”

“What’s wrong?”

“What makes you think something is wrong?” I sighed.

“I can tell. I have known you for quite a while.” He laughed lightly.

“Yeah. I guess you have. Trust me though. You really don’t want to talk to me about what’s on my mind. You wouldn’t be happy.”

“I’m a big boy Bella. Hit me with it. We are friends right? At least I hope we are at least friends?”

“Edward…”

“Please Bella.”

He asked for it.

“Fine. I am sitting here chain smoking and getting drunk while contemplating having sex with two guys I really like.”

Silence. Shit. I hope I didn’t break him.

Finally…

“Okay.”

“Okay?” What the fuck?

“Yes. You want to talk about it. I want to be your friend. I am not going to judge you. Tell me about it. First I suppose you should tell me why you feel the need to have sex with them at the same time.”

“Because I feel guilty when I am doing… sexy things… with one and the other isn’t there.”

“Okay… that makes sense but then you already are… wait…”

Here it comes.

“You mean have sex with them both at the exact same time and place?” He said in a flat tone, reality finally hitting home.

“Yep.”

“Is this the part where you tell me they are both Leprechauns and want to spank you with giant paddles in the shape of four leaf clovers?”

“Nope. Not this time Edward. I am completely serious about this. See why I said you wouldn’t want to hear about it?”

“No.” he replied.

“No?”

“No. I want to be a friend I am going to be a friend. I will listen. Tell me what you want to about it. I can take it. It is okay, Bella.”

“Really?” I asked doubtfully.

“Yes.”

“Okay. But in the spirit of honesty I should tell you who they are. You will read it in Rose’s head when she comes back anyway. Do you know vampires named Garrett and Peter?”

“Edward?”

Oh shit.

I think I really broke him this time.

“Edward?”

Nothing.

“Edward? Old buddy? Old friend? You there?”

I turned and saw Rose standing by me with a look of horror on her face.

“I think I broke him this time.” I whispered to her.

“Are you fucking stupid?” She whispered back. I shrugged my shoulders. It was entirely possible.

He suddenly snapped out of his trance.

“Bella?”

“Yes Edward?” I said softly.

“Is that my dear sister I heard you speaking to just now?”

“Yes Edward, it was.” I said, looking at Rose who was shaking her head back and forth and backing away.

“May I please speak to her? Then I will be glad to listen to your thoughts and concerns.”

“Of course Edward. And thank you for being so mature. I kind of figured you would freak out a little if I told you. I should give you more credit.”

“Of course. Rose please?”

“She is right here.” I reached out the phone to Rose who was looking at it as if it was a live snake. She shook her head quickly in the negative.

“Rose. Edward wants to speak to you. Now take the phone.”

“You stupid, sadistic bitch.” She whispered. I shot the finger at her and smiled.

“Hello Edward?”

Rose face just cringed. Her eyes were closed. She was grinding her teeth. I could only hear her side of the conversation unfortunately.

“I know Edward…”

Five minutes went by.

“I know…”

“But…”

“Now listen. You better watch who you say that too. I will hurt your scrawny ass.”

“You need to calm down…”

“That isn’t going to help things… But…”

“Where is Carlisle?”

“Because you need help at this moment! You sound like a lunatic!”

5 more minutes went by. I lit up and poured myself a drink. This was kind of fun.

“No. I am not putting her back on the phone until you calm down.”

“Are you sure?”

“Okay.” Rose handed the phone back to me. She did not look happy.

“Hello?”

“Sorry Bella. I had some urgent matters to discuss with Rose. So go ahead and tell me about Garrett and Peter. I know quite a lot about both of them. I would be glad to let you know anything you wish.”

“Cool. So this started about a week or so ago. I was in a bar and Garrett…”

I told Edward everything. I didn’t give him details of my activities last night. That was kind of personal.

“So now Rosalie thinks since I can’t decide if I like one more than the other I should just have sex with both of them.”

Rose suddenly appeared in front of my face. Freaky vampire speed.

She was mouthing something.

Looked like she was asking why? Why? Why? That seemed to be the word her mouth was silently screaming over and over again. I smiled and shot the finger at her.

“Rose thinks so, does she?”

“Yeah. What do you think?”

“You know how I feel about human vampire sex Bella. One careless moment and you could be dead or severely injured.”

“You think I should make Rose watch from the corner? Kinda like my safety man?”

“No. I doubt that would help. Have you considered that two typically dominant male vampires may not be able to share you without attacking the other? You could get caught in the middle of that… literally.” Edward said softly.

Actually I hadn’t thought of that.

“Do you know what Peter and Garrett are truly like, Bella?”

“I know what I have seen. Both strong, both sexy in different ways. Garrett is more charming. Peter is rougher but sweet. They both like to laugh.”

“They feed from humans Bella.”

“I know Edward.” I replied, rolling my eyes. Duh.

“But they mostly feed from criminals according to Rose.” Rose placed her head in her hands. She appeared to be frustrated about something.

“Is that what Rose said? Interesting. I thought someone had told me… nevermind.”

“No. What did someone tell you Edward?”

“Just that Peter liked to feed on orphans and Garrett preferred male dancers. I’m sure it isn’t true.”

Yeah.

“Edward?”

“Yes?”

“Did you really hear that or did you just make that up?” I asked grinning.

“I made it up.” He admitted sheepishly.

“I’m so proud of you. You are getting so much better.”

“Thanks.” He whispered. “You know if it’s vampire sex you want I will be willing to change my views on the whole thing if you wanted…”

“Edward, let’s not go there. We can’t have sex if you want to be my friend.”

“You have had sex with people who were just friends before Bella.” He correctly pointed out.

“Yes, but with you it would be different. It would mean two different things to us Edward. I wouldn’t hurt you like that.”

“You are right Bella. I was just kidding anyway. Trying to be sarcastic.”

“No, you weren’t. But I appreciate the sentiment. So what do you think I should do?”

“Stay away from both of them. You can only get hurt.”

“They won’t physically hurt me Edward.” I said sighing.

“I wasn’t speaking of physically. I hurt you enough for one lifetime. You don’t need anymore.”

“You didn’t hurt me that bad Edward. I mean yeah it hurt but I have been dumped since then and I have dumped others. It’s not the end of the world.”

“Yes, but this is different. You will have to hurt one of them. That will hurt you. Then you will never be able to give yourself over to the other completely knowing you hurt the other. If you truly feel pulled to both of them Bella, choosing one or the other would rip you in two.”

Damn it.

Edward was right.

“So you are saying the only way to have one of them…”

“Would be to have both of them. And hope they can handle that. Knowing what I know about them, which admittedly isn’t much, I am not sure that would be possible.”

I took a deep breath.

“Thank you Edward. It was good to talk.”

“Of course Bella. That’s what friends are for right?”

“Yeah. Do you want to talk to Rose?”

“No. I believe Rose has heard everything we needed to discuss. Bella do me one favor.”

“What’s that?”

“If Peter and Garrett seem to be jealous around you… more so than usual… if there is growling involved. Run. Do not get between the two of them. You will only get hurt or killed and they would kill each other over it. Understand?”

I knew what he was talking about. This wasn’t only about me. They… what a fucked up situation.

“Yeah. Got it Eddie. See ya later.”

“Later Bells.”

He ended the call. Wow. He called me Bells. What has gotten into him?

“You are such a fucking whore.”

“I thought we established this?”

“We have but I am thinking of a stronger word to describe what you just did.”

“I thought he took it very well.” He actually impressed me.

“Because you couldn’t hear what he was saying to me!”

“You are a big girl. You can take it.”

“So are we going clubbing tonight?” She asked.

“You can go try to pick up a scent from inside if you want. It is becoming clear that I won’t be able to completely focus on this with Peter and Garrett waiting around each bend to ambush my pussy with their incredible tongues. You are right. It’s time to get this out in the open. Call Garrett and tell him to be at Peter’s apartment at 8:00. And Rose I would appreciate it if you would stay in tonight. I don’t like the idea of you going out without backup. Please?”

“Okay. I want to watch the Real Housewives reunion tonight anyway. I will be sitting here, probably having phone sex with Emmett while you are having real sex with… yeah.”

“I don’t know if we will have sex Rose. But we have to come to an understanding.”

“Good luck. The understanding part. Hope your legs work after the three of you come to an understanding. I will see you in the morning.”

I walked to the bathroom and ran a bath. It was time to shave everything. And wash. Wash very well. Then moisturize. Then maybe shave again.

Garrett POV

“Why did she want you here? Shouldn’t we be hanging out, tracking vampire scents?” Peter asked. He was worried.

So was I.

“After our little altercations yesterday she has probably had enough and wants the both of us gone.” I mentioned. Peter didn’t disagree.

“One of us has to go.” He whispered.

“Yes. Which one?” I asked.

“May be both of us. We may not have a choice in the matter.”

“If she tells you to leave her alone, will you?”

“Yes. What about you?”

“Yep.”

“She should have been here five minutes ago.” Peter said, showing off his skill at reading a clock.

“Women are late because they can be.” I said. This was ridiculous how nervous I felt over a human girl I hadn’t known very long. Maybe Rose was right about this mating crap. But then how could Peter feel it as well?

A knock on the door. I looked at Peter and we both rose and walked towards the door. I opened it and my breath was taken away.

Her hair was full and flowing. She had a skirt and black hose on underneath. She was wearing small heels. She had a white button up top on and her breasts were definitely trying to break out of the top.

She was smiling at least. I doubt she would have dressed like this to tell us to both fuck off.

“May I come in?”

“Of course.” I stood to the side. Peter dragged his eyes away from her breasts and stepped aside as well. She sat on a seat across from the sofa and crossed one leg over the other.

“I need a drink. I don’t suppose either of you have any alcohol do you?”

I looked at Peter who slightly shook his head. She lit up and I watched her lips drawing in the smoke. She had red lipstick on. Almost blood red.

“Guess I will have to do this sober then.” She whispered. “It’s probably for the best.”

“Do what?” Peter asked. I was tense as well.

“We have a problem here gentlemen. Rose told me what she told the two of you. About this vampire mating shit? Apparently I tend to attract vampires who feel pulled to me.”

“I don’t think that is the case at all. Not every vampire is pulled towards you.” I hoped.

“Edward apparently is. Rose told me you and Peter feel the same?”

We both nodded.

“Rose thinks Edward’s obsession… maybe that’s not the right word… anyway she thinks it has to do with my blood. But you two show no indication that my blood holds any particular special scent, is that right?”

“Yes.” Peter nodded as well.

“Other than the desire to make sure it keeps going through you so you can stay alive.” Peter added on.

“I feel pulled toward the two of you. You both feel pulled towards me. I am having a difficult time with this. What happened last night cannot happen again. I feel like I am cheating on the other one and it is pissing me off. I don’t like feeling that way. I don’t like feeling attracted to two guys. But I can’t help that.”

“So what do you want to do about it?” I asked quietly.

“I should want to tell you both to go away but the thought of that drives me insane. So…”

She took a deep drag on her cigarette.

“Why don’t the two of you tell me how you think this should play out? Keep in mind that I won’t tell either of you to leave. I am not going to make a choice. If I did I would always feel guilty about the one who left. Too guilty to give myself to the one who I let stay.”

I stared at Peter. He looked between Bella and I. His face reflected my own. Worry. Fright. He was as taken with her as I was.

“We can’t decide Bella.” I admitted. “Perhaps we should all go our separate way…”

“How mature are the two of you?”

“Excuse me?” Peter asked.

“How mature are the two of you?”

I shrugged my shoulders. I was over two hundred years old. I was pretty damn mature.

“I am very mature Bella.”

“Peter?”

“Yeah Bella. Despite how I act, I think I am pretty mature. I mean I didn’t burn my wife when she cheated on me with another woman. That was mature, I think.”

Bella took a deep breath and snubbed her cigarette out in the empty candy bowl on the coffee table.

“Fine. No more physical contact unless the both of you are present.” She said.

I looked at Peter who looked at me with an open mouth.

“Now wait a minute…” He started.

“Bella. Why can’t we just be together and not be jealous of the other?”

“Why? So you two can try to one up each other? Who gets me in the hallway? Who gets me on the hood of my car? We have to come to some sort of agreement on this or I will never get my job done. I will never be happy and neither apparently will you. So if we do this we do it together. If one of you can’t handle it, back out, no hard feelings.”

“If we can’t handle what?” I asked.

She stood up. She began slowly unbuttoning her top. She finally reached the bottom and her shirt hung open. I could see her pale abdomen and her breasts trapped behind her black lace bra.

She slipped her shirt off her shoulders.

“If you can’t handle this I will understand. I realize I am acting like a total slut here but I don’t know what else to do. I can promise I will only have sex with the two of you. I ask that you remember that I am human. If both of you don’t agree with this it doesn’t happen. If there is too much jealousy between the two of you, it stops.”

She reached behind her back and unhooked her bra and let it fall. She unzipped her skirt and it fell around her ankles. She stepped out of it. She was wearing black stockings that strapped to a black garter belt clinging to her hips.

“Peter, where is your bedroom?” she asked, looking between the two of us.

“First door on the right down the hall.” He whispered.

Bella turned around and began walking down the hall. She wasn’t wearing panties. At the hall entrance she stopped.

“I’ll be on the bed. I think on all fours to start. Whoever gets there first, gets to pick which side of me they want. I’ve never done this before. We can wing it from there.”

She walked down the hall without another word.

I looked at Whitlock.

“Did that just happen?”

“Yeah.” He said.

“So what do you think?”

Peter looked at me and grinned.

“I think I get to be behind her first. Later.”

Peter was gone.

I guess I know what side I am getting. This promised to be a… unique experience.

Rose POV

Damn this place was loud. Loud and crowded. Not a bad place but I prefer my clubs to be more intimate.

Too many humans here.

I don’t know why I was here. Bella asked me to stay in tonight. But I couldn’t let it go. This may be my only chance to get in when she isn’t here and see if I can sniff out a werewolf up close.

Instead of sitting at the bar fighting off guys like Bella preferred to do I decided to walk around. Dance a little. Browse some tables up close. On in particular caught my eye. Must be a rich guy. He had a few hanger on friends and several young ladies sitting around him. He wasn’t a bad looking guy but he wasn’t horrible. I began walking towards the table when a hand on my shoulder stopped me. Litereally stopped me.

“They are not who you are looking for.”

I turned around, way to quickly considering I was around humans and saw him. I knew it was him the moment I laid eyes on him.

“Would you have a drink with me, lovely lady? I don’t have any animal blood for you but perhaps a nice martini?” He waked towards a table in the back and I followed.

We sat down and I took a closer look at him. He was gorgeous. Around 6’2″ around 200 pounds. Piercing ice blue eyes and jet black hair cut close to his scalp. He was wearing a suit jacket and blue jeans. A little 80s but who was I to judge.

“So are you the one I am looking for?”

“Yes vampire. I am. Your kind and mine are natural enemies. Despite that I have to say you are stunning. If I had known you were on the roof with those two men I would have visited myself. My name is Andrie. Who might you be?”

“Rosalie.” I said never looking away from his eyes. I would not show weakness. He may be an ancient but he was still a dog. I was a vampire. My kind exterminated his kind. If he thought he was intimidating me he was out of his mind.

“You have beautiful legs. I would love to take a bite out of them.” He snickered. He had a slight accent but otherwise spoke perfect English.

“I was just thinking you have beautiful eyes. I would love to pull them from your skull, put a tooth pick through them and twirl them in a bloody martini.”

“You have fire.” He smiled.

“I prefer to think of it as ice. You are a vicious psychopath. Why are you here? You need to go.”

“This is my new hunting ground. I quite like it here. I have claimed it as my own.”

“Unclaim it. Leave. Go back overseas.”

“And if I don’t?” he smiled.

“Then I kill you. I may anyway. You should take this chance and run.”

“But I haven’t sunk my teeth into agent Swan yet. It would be a shame to leave without her. I fully plan on fucking her or eating her. Perhaps both. What do you think I should do to her? Do you think she would make a good pack bitch? I do have children who have needs you realize.”

It took me a second to process what he just told me.

“I think it would be best if you come outside with me now, instead of me dragging you out back. But I am fully prepared to do this if you won’t come peacefully.” I told him through clenched teeth.

“Goodness gracious, don’t tell me you want to fuck her too? The girl certainly attracts attention from the supernatural, doesn’t she?” he laughed.

“She is a part of my Coven. We have claimed her as our own. She will be one of us. My Coven does not take kindly to outsiders threatening those we have claimed as our own.”

“If you have claimed her, why haven’t you turned her yet?” Andrie asked.

Seeing as how I just made up the whole claiming bullshit I really didn’t have another lie to go to right now. Fuck it.

“You going outside voluntarily or am I dragging you there?”

“I have three days before the full moon. Shouldn’t we meet when we are both at full strength? It isn’t very sporting of you to kill me now.” He was still smiling. A part of me wanted to wipe the smile off his face with my boot. Another part wondered why he seemed so confident.

“I am not interested in a duel. You have killed women in this city. You just threatened a woman I consider a sister. I am going to kill you now. Get up and walk.”

He shrugged his shoulders.

“Of course.”

I followed him out the back, afraid that he may take off at a full run the moment the back door was open. Instead he strolled out. I didn’t want to talk anymore. I attacked him from behind and he turned before I could touch him. I flew past him and hit the wall on the other side of the alley.

“I said I wasn’t at full strength. I never said I wasn’t strong. Rosalie it would probably be a good time for you to run now. I will have no problem ripping your hands and beautiful feet off and making you watch what I do to the one your family has supposedly claimed.”

I lifted a dumpster and threw it at him. It struck him and then hit the club wall. I walked up slowly and heard… laughter. The dumpster jumped back from the wall and he sprang for me. I hit him. He didn’t move. He hit me and I stood my ground. I attempted to bite him and he had a hand on the bottom of my jaw and the other at the roof of my mouth. I couldn’t squeeze down on his grip. I finally kneed him in the nuts and he grunted. A strike to the jaw and he fell back. I flipped back to give myself some space, never taking my eyes off of him, just like Jasper taught me.

“Very nice. I look forward to seeing you again soon. I want you to practice. During the full moon there is no way you could possibly handle me. Keep working though.”

“You aren’t going anywhere.”

“I am a pack master silly girl. How far away do you think my pack is? Whoever taught you to fight did well. He or she taught you to never take your eyes off your adversary. But, if I may offer a suggestion, you should always glance about for those around you.” He laughed and took off running. I moved to follow until two men with long hair jumped from the sides in my way. I heard movement. I turned and saw 6 more behind me. Two of them had torches. Their eyes were yellow. But they could not turn. No way were they as strong as their master.

But they were fast. I had four of them on me before I could move. Fists were flying in my face. I felt my clothes being torn. My hair was pulled. One tried to bite me with no effect.

“You three rip her arm from her shoulder. All we need is a small crack. Natalya, bring the torch. She will light up.”

I twirled my legs in a circle and hit three of them in the jaw. Two more were back on my arm while two others held my neck. This was becoming a concern. I felt my arm starting to give way a bit. That bith was walking over with a torch. No way I go out like this. If they light me up I will rip them all to pieces before I burn to ash. I bit the hand on my shoulder and felt it tear. A scream. I flipped back and sent bodies flying. I was on my feet growling.

They began to circle me again. They were growling. I was growling.

I heard a roar.

We all looked up and saw him fall. Emmett landed next to me. He grabbed the nearest wolf and ripped his head off his body and threw it at the girl holding the torch causing her to drop it and scream. His muscles were clenching. He looked like a huge pissed off vampire. I hope Bella stayed with her boy toys tonight because I was wrecking her bedroom when we got out of this.

“Hello babe.”

“Hey baby. Good to see you again.”

“Do we need to keep one alive for information?”

“Yeah. Probably.”

“Okay then.”

Emmett attacked and I followed. The fight didn’t last long. They took off running in different directions. Something about seeing a 6’8 290 pound vampire rip your buddies head off tends to take the fight out of some people. I grabbed the girl with the torch before she could get away and ripped the tendons in her leg. She screamed and fell at my feet. Emmett ran back to check on me, holding one more severed head.

“They got away.” He said. “Except for this guy.”

“She didn’t.”

Emmett grabbed her by the neck and we jumped to the roof.

“Where to?”

“Bella’s.”

“Is that safe? With Bella there?”

“She isn’t there and trust me. She is perfectly safe from werewolves where she is right now.”
