Carlisle Pays while Bella Preys

Chapter One

Learning Lessons

People from Forks remember me as that poor little distraught schoolgirl that had been dumped by that good looking Cullen boy. Oh yes, that had been me for sure, I had also been catatonic, suicidal and was hallucinating quite often. I should have been locked up and medicated for that shit. However, I had become a pretty good little actress, thanks to learning from the Cullen's' way of existence. I faked my way through life to become one of the sharpest minds imaginable to science.

I now work for a 'Top Secret Government Agency'. I like to run things and be in command of everything and everyone. Hum, maybe Edward had taught me a thing or two about control after all. I now make the decisions; I step on people to get where I want to be. No goal is too high…. I love a good challenge, gets my adrenalin flowing. I was still fond of that rush I had become so accustomed to. I just learned to exercise it in a more productive and positive manner. I had finally made my way in life, although it had been at the expense of some so called 'friends' along the way. However, I believe that I have the Cullen's to thank in some ways for my success in life. I had learned a few things from my mentor's, negative as they were.

Rosalie gets the award for teaching me how to be the best bitch I can possibly be. I learned from her that people respected an out-spoken bitch and/or ice queen. I can glare and spew out cruel things from my mouth, just as well, if not better than she ever could, and I had only a little more than a decade of practice.

Jasper, God love him for not sucking away my very existence that fateful night. I had learned from him that people could be manipulated, maybe not in the same positive way he did, but playing with other people's emotions none the less.

Edward taught me to put myself first and only use people until I got bored, or they become of no use to me. Lesson learned the hard way…. Thanks buddy. Oh and most importantly, he taught me control and tolerating those beneath me.

Emmett taught me that having a good sense of humor will open doors and windows to achieve other peoples love and trust. Even so, my sense of humor only seemed to come out in sarcastic and spiteful tones.

Esme taught me a false sense of security. She hugs to insure that people believe they are loved and accepted by her, a phony mother figure, pretending to love. I can pretend to love, thanks mommy dearest.

Alice taught me that your best friend may-in addition-be your prime betrayer, giving fresh meaning to that old saying to 'keep your enemies close and your friends closer'; she also gave me a new way to view myself. I have changed my looks completely; I believe Alice would be impressed, maybe even a little jealous.

Carlisle taught me that the head of anything, business or otherwise, makes the final decisions that will send fate into action. 'Take no prisoners', the real power lies within the leader of any family unit or establishment. Nothing happens without going through the superior responsible. They make the ending call and the ants carry out the orders. Welcome to my world.

"Let's hurry it up boys, times running out quickly. Get him in the van, NOW! I yelled

The Cullen's had also taught the naive little human girl all of their secrets, what they were vulnerable to. It took some time and a lot of money, but I put that information to good use. They owed me two years of my life, and I intended to get it back and more.

"Bella is that you?" the unbelieving vampire asked.

"Ah, you remembered. How astonishing, oh but wait a minute, that's right you can't forget anything can you? Well guess what sexy, neither can I?" I said through gritted teeth as I slammed the door to the van and motioned for the driver to take off. I followed closely behind them making sure that no one was following us.

"Margie" I spat "Can you foresee anyone coming?" Margie was a psychic that worked on my team. "Alice has seen it happen, but they will get there too late. We will be clear of them within the next two minutes." She declared.

"Good, they won't smell his scent either."I scoffed to myself. Having smelly mutts for friends was a definite plus, Not only for distracting vampires but blocking Alice's gift as well. With any luck at all the wolves will be blamed for said vampire's disappearance. Meanwhile we'll be so deep underground that they won't be able to smell or track anything.

We drove through the secret government gates and soon were hidden from both man and beast. I was the head of this operation given my vast knowledge of vampires. I wanted the Cullen's to pay, all of them. However, I directed my anger at one vampire in particular. I blamed him more so then the others after all he was….

"Miss Swan" My thoughts were interrupted. "Where do you want him?"

"Take him to the lock down for now, Ron" I watched as they carted him down the hallway he looked up as he passed me. "Stop" I said firmly. I looked at him intently, wanting him to think I actually cared. "Are you okay sweetheart?" I asked in my nicest fake voice.

"Why" He wanted to know? I reached my hand down to cup his face. I looked at him with compassionate eyes. "Look at you" I sighed "Your still so beautiful, quite dazzling, in fact. You haven't aged a day in over fourteen years, have you?" I said shaking my head. "But I have…time and age have taught me many hard lessons."

"And you blame me out of everyone else, Bella?" he looked hurt. If I wouldn't have had a cold heart, I might have felt bad about all of this. "I did nothing but aid you. I treated you like my own daughter." I laughed at that."Last I understood parents didn't abandon their daughters, not good ones anyway, but if you would like, I can sit on your lap and call you daddy." I replied sarcastically, before he could say another word I motioned for them to take him away.

Time to play on Bella's terms now Carlisle….sire….mentor….leader of the coven, Bad Daddy!
