A mountain lion was perched upon one of the branches of the trees concentrating on his own hunting agenda as Bella leapt onto a branch of a tree next to it. She positioned herself higher up in the tree than the lion was. I was frantic. I knew Bella would be fine but it went against all my instincts to allow this. I couldn’t fathom that she was no longer fragile. She didn’t need my protection. I felt a twinge of pain at this thought.
The lion was eyeing a herd of deer and was completely oblivious to Bella’s approach. He was preparing himself to spring in attack when Bella launched herself from her perch and landed on the lion’s branch.
If I could have had a heart attack, I would have. The lion reached out with his paws and clawed frantically at Bella; his fangs exposed. I was on the verge of a panic attack when Bella launched herself at the lion, knocking them both to the ground.
It took all my control to not step in and save her; but she didn’t need saving, she was the predator this time. This was going to take some getting used to.

I walked out of Carlisle’s study. I deeply thought about our conversation. I couldn’t quite understand what Carlisle was trying to tell me. ‘We like people for their qualities, but love then for their defects.’
Hey little brother! We’re down here. Alice told Jasper that we need to stay down here until the wedding!
I saw Emmett leaning against the counter in the kitchen. I saw that he was looking at the food in the silver holder and wondering what was in it. I smiled to myself and headed down stairs. I saw Rosalie looking at booklet of piano composers.
“Play Yiruma ‘Kiss the Rain’ and then ‘Beloved’.”
She turned to look at me and tilted her head slightly to the side. “Who?”
I huffed and walked towards the piano. I leaned against the piano and looked out the window.
“Yiruma. Excellent composer, I must say so myself. Go on the net and get the music sheet.”
Whatever you want at your wedding.
She exited the room, still whining about the dress Alice picked out for the wedding. Rosalie, that woman thinks of no one but herself. Hopefully one of these days she'll thinks of someone other than herself. I...

The moment that Bella told me that she wanted to tell Charlie about us getting married I was speechless. When I placed her ring on her third finger it sent wonderful warmth down my cold spine.
As we sat on the loveseat, I heard Bella’s heart race and fresh blood ran through her body. I figured that telling Charlie about us getting married couldn’t be easy for Bella. I heard Charlie’s cruiser turn the corner and headed down their street. At this point, I heard Charlie thoughts
Man, it was a good day at work today. Boy, I ‘m tired. I wonder what Bella is making for dinner tonight? OH MAN! You have to be kidding me! HE is here again! I swear he spends more time here then I do. Now what is the reason for him being here? When Bella is not around, I am going to have a talk with him, about spending less time here at our house. Or has Bella asked him to move in without telling me?
I chuckled to myself quietly so Bella wouldn’t hear. I didn’t want to make her feel more nervous then she already felt at the moment. I heard Charlie park the cruiser and step out. I saw him slug his way towards the door. I saw the keys rattling in the door and Charlie stomped his...
