I Hate Twilight — 21

JANE’S POV

I was starting to get irritated with Alec’s knocking, and although Aro told us not to break anything, I kicked the door down.
Edward was standing in front of a girl, who I guessed was Phoebe. I stared at her, thinking of ways I could make the two of them suffer, when Edward snarled, “What do you want?”
“Aro wants to see the both of you right this moment,” I snapped, for I didn’t like the way he talked to me, besides I didn’t want to be here.
I was in no mind to be patient, so when he didn’t move, I narrowed my eyes, directing my power towards him. The pain lashed through his body, a small smile gracing my face as I saw him crumple to the floor.
“Stop!” Phoebe demanded and to my shock, my gift just stopped. What just happened?
The sound of an annoying voice me out of my thoughts. When my eyes focused properly, I noticed that the stupid human was looking into my eyes. I tried to direct my power at her, but instead of her feeling pain, it reflected onto myself, and I crumpled to the floor just like Edward did moments ago. I let out a pain-filled screech as Alec rushed to my aid.
“Don’t you ever use your gift on me, Edward, or any of the Cullens ever again,” the filthy human spat at me. Oh, how I wanted to kill her slow and painfully. I got off of the floor and pelted out the hotel room with Alec right beside me, also annoyed at what just happened.
We finally made it home, but before I could do anything else, I had to tell Aro the information I’d gathered. I entered the thrown room followed closely by Alec.
“Ah, I see you’re back, but where are Edward and Phoebe?” Aro asked, trying to keep calm. I knew that Aro wanted Edward as one of his guards, and that he wanted this Phoebe girl. I was too angry to say what had happened, so I held my hand out before him. After a few minutes, he let my hand drop, as a smile came to his face.
“Hmm... I want this girl as one of my guards; just think of all the power she would have once she is turned,” he said happily, looking at his brothers. “We are going to pay the Cullens a visit. Gather, everyone.”
I nodded, not saying a word as I walked out of the room with Alec by my side.

ALICE’S POV

I was so happy that Phoebe had finally accepted Edward. I told Rosalie, but she didn’t believe me. I was running around the house, getting everything ready for Edward’s and Phoebe’s return, when Esme walked into the room, confused.
“What’s going on, dear?” she asked in her motherly voice.
“Edward’s coming home with his mate!” I said cheerfully, bouncing on the balls of my feet.
“He has a mate? He didn’t tell me.” Esme looked so sad and hurt.
“Esme, he didn’t say anything because she is, well, different. She wouldn’t even talk to him, and he’d been courting her for a while. He didn’t want to get your hopes up,” I explained, as the emotions washed away and was replaced with understanding.
The front door flew opened and in walked an ecstatic yet slightly worried Edward, with a sleeping Phoebe snuggling into his chest.
I smiled at him, before he walked upstairs to his room.

EDWARD’S POV

I gently placed Phoebe onto my couch, then climbed onto it, pulling her into my arms. I watched my love sleep as I played with her hair. I really didn’t feel like talking to anyone at the moment. I was too busy thinking about what Aro wanted with Phoebe. I already knew that he wanted me as his guard, but I don’t know.

PHOEBE’S POV

I woke up on something cold that was playing with my hair. I opened my eyes to see a well muscled body. I blushed a little, sitting up. I wiped the sleep from my eyes and looked around, before my eyes settled back on Edward.
“Morning, love.”
“Morning,” I said as I stifled a yawn with my hand. I got off the couch to stretch, feeling a set of eyes on me. I opened my mouth to say something when Edward scooped me up into his arms.
“I love you,” he said looking into my eyes, making me almost melt.
“I love you, too,” I whispered back, leaning up to place my lips to his in a sweet morning kiss.
