I have had some concerns about Jasper being abusive- This will absolutely NOT happen, His behaviour will be explained, so don't fret! :P.
Just a note, I changed a couple of things from the 1st chapter. You can either re-read it or ask me what I have changed, Its nothing major I literally changed 1 sentence and took out another.
Hopefully this chapter answers some questions. Happy new year everyone! enjoy!
Chapter 3
Jasper cleared his throat and began speaking.
"Okay I know you have a lot of questions and I will answer all of them but I need to know what you last remember".
"You mean before I woke up here?". I clarified.
Jasper simply nodded his head and began rubbing his nose up and down my neck.
"Well I made some lasagna for Charlie and I". I started telling Jasper. Glancing up at his face to see if he recognized my fathers name or not. He didn't give any indication that he knew my father, So I continued on with my memory.
"After we finished eating I cleaned the dishes while Charlie went to watch the ball game. I later joined him in the living room and when the game ended I showered and went to bed."
"Do you recall what the date was Bella?"
"I was going to be starting school in a couple of days. It was just an average evening and the next thing I know I wake up in another persons bed with a complete stranger!". I finished with a half sob.
"Don't worry Baby, we'll get this all sorted out, don't cry Sugar." Jasper cooed and began cuddling me.
My sobs were replaced with huge wail's that I couldn't control. I was thinking about my immediate future as well as Charlie, who was probably searching for me. Jasper fixed me so I was straddling his lap and gently put my head on his shoulder while I continue to cry.
"It's alright darling, It'll get better don't worry you're safe, I got you". He kept soothing me.
After I calmed down a bit I realized that I was attached to Jasper, I must have been strangling him with the grip that I had on his neck. I also felt his chest rumbling. I leaned back and placed my hand in the middle of his chest.
"Jasper what are you doing?" I asked
He pulled me against his chest and the rumble grew into a loud purr.
"Are you purring?" I asked in disbelief.
"Mmhhm, Do you feel better?" He asked me
"H-how is that possible?" Memories of Jasper tearing a man apart began flooding my mind and I started to squirm away from him.
He just held me tighter to his chest and began whispering to me "I know you are confused, it's okay I'm not going to hurt you. Why don't you ask me some questions because I know you're brain must be swimming with them, I know mine is."
When Jasper mentioned that he wasn't going to hurt me it reminded me of what he did to me in the bathroom.
"You aren't going to hurt me Jasper?" I asked rhetorically.
"What was that in the bathroom then huh? You were real quick to disregard you're "I'll never hurt you speech!". I pulled away from him and his lack of clothes was pulled to my attention.
"And you still haven't told me why we aren't wearing any clothes!" I accused hotly. It wasn't the most important thing in this situation but it slipped out and I was far from comfortable sitting in his naked lap.
Jasper chuckled deeply and started nuzzling my neck.
"Out of everything our nakedness is what you are most concerned about?" He chuckled again and licked my neck, which I immediately rubbed dry.
"Does it make you uncomfortable?" He asked me.
"Yes it does, and stop answering my questions with other questions!".
Jasper raised his eyebrow in question and I went silent. Wow Bella, way to be stupid.
Jasper lifted me off his lap and climbed out of the bed. My eyes were glued to his naked behind. I watched as his muscles flexed and relaxed with every move he made. With his back still facing me Jasper shimmied into a pair of boxer briefs and started back towards me. His underwear left nothing to the imagination and my mouth went dry.
When he settled me back into his lap he began speaking to me.
"Okay so I was naked for a couple of reasons. The first is because I was scenting you- Which I will explain in more detail. And the second was in case someone challenged me. It's a form of dominance that as a female you wouldn't understand. Now scenting is when I transfer my scent onto you. It can be done by any form of physical contact whether it be by rubbing my skin on yours or licking you. It's significant because it lets other males and some females know that you already have a mate, and that if you are harmed in anyway there will be consequences. I know that this is a lot to process but take your time, there is no rush." Jasper finished explaining.
"Uh huh". Was my brilliant response.
"And I wasn't hurting you in the bathroom. I could never permanently harm you. I was just punishing you for being disobedient. It's part of my instincts as a mate to protect you, which is why when I tell you something you must do it. I only wish to love and care for you. I couldn't bear it if you were harmed." He explained
"Wait what is a mate?". I questioned.
Jasper sighed "Ask me another question. I promise you will get you're answers but that one would be best to be answered at a later time". He explained.
"What are you?, I remember what you did to that guy yesterday"
He sighed again.
"Ask me another one Bella".
" Okay... Who are you exactly?".
"As I said before my name is Jasper Whitlock, I'm originally from Texas but I've been everywhere. I'm 20 years old and I live in this house with my family". He summarized.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"At my house obviously". He smiled down at me, like that was an acceptable answer.
"Why am I here, How did I get here?".
"Well, you live here with my family and myself, we have been together for almost 6 months and you have known my family for over 7. You obviously don't remember any of this, which is something that we need to look into. I need you to tell me what today's date is Bella". Jasper said to me.
"Probably around January 19th." I responded.
"Fuck" Jasper mumbled and then went silent, which worried me. What was today's date?
"Am I right?" I asked him.
Still no answer.
"Jasper!" I shouted, getting his attention
"What is today's date?" I demanded.
Jasper gently cradled my head in his large hands "Bella its August 26th." He told me.
For the dates used in my story I followed (and will continue to follow) this time line.

Also I literally wrote this and uploaded it, So pardon my grammar mistakes. I usually look at my work a couple of days after its finished but since its been so long since I have updated I am skipping a step :).
I'll probably re-edit it in the future. I will notify people if I change anything.
