B POV

The moment the first rays of light hit us, I gave up on sleep all together. Even with my eyes still open I couldn't stop thinking about my nightmare. I slowly tried to sit up only for Jasper to pull me even closer.

"You aren't going anywhere. Now I demand to know why you didn't answer me when I asked what you were doing yesterday. You could have been hurt and there would have been nothing I could have done."

During his rant, he had rolled us over, so I was laid on my back with him hovering over me looking exceptionally pissed off. Part of me wanted to be a good little girl and tell him the truth but her voice was drowned out by the darkness yelling at me that he was treating me like a child. Just like Edward and Jacob did.

"I am not some little pet Jasper that can be forced to do anything against her will. Or is that what you want? Someone you can order about. If that is the case, this over with. I have lived through two relationships like that and there is no way in hell I am going to go for a third. NOW GET THE HELL OFF ME."

Before I could blink, Jasper had me bent over his knee snarling.

"Listen carefully Isabella, I am not the child NOR am I the mutt. You will not talk to me in that tone of voice again. I am never letting you go. You belong to me, and YOU know you do. I was planning on giving you a pass on last night but since you have decided you will behave like a child, I will punish you as one."

The moment his hand came in contact with my skin, I screamed. It didn't even feel like he was holding back as he continued to smack my ass. I lost count after twenty, but I knew that my ass was going to be bruised for a long time. By the time he finished, I had been crying that much I had snot dripping from my nose. I couldn't stop the whimper that left my mouth as he picked me up and dropped me on the bed.

"You are to stay in this room until further notice Isabella. You will not leave it, unless I say you can. You are MINE and if you ever speak to me that way again, what you just got will look like a walk in the park."

I watched as he turned around and stormed out of the room slamming the door behind him. I heard the sound of it being locked from the outside and then nothing. I looked around the room and noticed a box of tissues sitting on the small table next to the bed. Using them to clean my face up, I slowly got up and walked around the room. I noticed a small bathroom off to the side and used it even though it hurt sitting. I also couldn't help but notice that there weren't any mirrors, not even in the bathroom. The more I looked around, the more I realised that there wasn't anything in the room but the bare essentials. I slowly sank to the floor and winched as my ass hit the stone floor. The only soft thing in the room was the bed, and I was never going to use it again. As my eyes drifted downwards I noticed an old blanket sticking out from under the bed. Getting to my hands and knees I crawled across the floor noticing it didn't hurt as much as walking. Grabbing the blanket I crawled back over to the corner that was half hidden by the desk and made a make shift bed. I was hungry and was starting to become tired due to the lack of sleep. After waiting for half an hour, I came to the conclusion he wasn't planning on feeding me anytime soon so I fell asleep.

J POV

I squatted down in front of my sleeping mate and brushed a strand of her hair away from her face. I felt bad for hitting her earlier, but it needed to be done. She just doesn't understand how much she means to me, to all of us. If she was a vampire, I would have just bitten her to show her my dominance over her and that would have been that. Now, however, I had to start all over again. Last night when she kissed me back, it took all of my strength not to take her then and there. I have wanted to claim her since the very moment I laid eyes on her in the cafeteria, the only thing stopping me was the role I had to play.

I had to sit by and watch as she fell in love with the boy, even though it wasn't by choice. He dazzled her daily and force himself into her life. He even went so far as to hover over her while she slept. The night of her birthday I had enough. The moment he threw her into the table, I lost control and attacked him, as Carlisle ran her upstairs to tend to her wounds. I allowed him to see her two last times, what I didn't expect was the back lash from him constantly dazzling her. By the time I heard the state she was in, I was all ready in Volturi.

I carefully picked her up and carried into my room and not the prison that I had locked her for the last three hours. Gently placing her on her stomach, I tenderly stroked her ass. I could feel myself becoming hard just from this action alone. I couldn't stop the purr that escaped my mouth as I let my hands move up and down, soothing the pain she must be feeling.

I knew the minute she woke up but didn't stop my movements.

"Isabella, I am sorry that I have caused you pain but your words just infuriated me. I don't want you as a pet. I want you as mate. I know that to you that this may feel like it isn't the case."

"I'm sorry as well. I don't know what came over me. It's just that after everything that has happened, it sounded like you too were trying to control me."

I sighed trying to work out how was going to do this, so she didn't feel like she didn't have a say.

"Isabella, I heard your words last night, and I promise that we will do that. However, you are my mate, and I do expect you to do as I say. It's my job to keep you safe and last night when you ignored me, it pissed me off. Isabella, you were approached by an actual werewolf last night and I wasn't there to protect you like I was supposed to be. Then when I saw that thing rubbing himself against you, it took everything in me not to destroy him and then claim you in front of everyone. I know I've told you all this before, but I need you to understand."

I watched as she sat up and winched as she did so.

"Jasper I hear what you are saying. My words from last night still stand. We are going to date, and you're going to have to earn my trust. After what happened this morning, you have probably guessed that it has put you back to square one."

I nodded my head at her before pulling her into my lap and buried my nose into her hair.

"Come, you need to feed, and I need to arrange for someone to clean up the mess."

I watched as she pulled back and blinked at me.

"Mess? What mess?"

I really didn't want to tell her that while she was sleeping, her anger had caused a mini tornado that destroyed half of the vineyard. However, I knew that I needed to gain her trust back.

"You caused a mini tornado while you were asleep destroying at least half the vineyard. No one was hurt."

I watched as she opened and closed her mouth before she finally found the words she was looking for.

"What do you mean I caused a mini tornado? I'm still human. I mean with Retta, I did it through you didn't I?"

"Isabella yes to both. With Retta, you did it through me because fire is one of the harder elements to control, it doesn't come naturally. With wind, it's something that is natural to you. I did tell you that your emotions were tied in with your power. It seems that last night when you agreed to be my mate, it released something inside of you. We will work on them later, but for now you need food."

B POV

I gasped as Jasper picked me up and carried me out of the room. I was getting whiplash dealing with his moods. One minute he was yelling at me and smacking me the next he had his hand on my ass telling me he was sorry. Then add the whole power thing, and I wished that I was back in the darkness. At least when I was in that frame of mind things were that much easier. I didn't realise that we had arrived at the kitchen until Jasper placed me on the side causing pain to shoot through my body. The look Jasper threw me made me melt into a puddle. He looked for a moment like a wounded puppy.

"Come here Jasper."

He slowly walked back over to me stopping just within arm's reach. I ran my hand through his hair prompting him to step forward until he was standing between my legs and purring. I wanted to be angry at him. I wanted him to hurt like he hurt me, but I couldn't do it. I dug my hands into his hair and gently pulled it. He growled at me before pulling me even closer and attacking my mouth with his.

Why was I allowing him to do this and why did a really large part of me just not care? A scream broke us apart. Turning my head to the side a young women maybe a few years older than me stood there with her hands to her mouth to stifle her scream. It wasn't until I looked down did I realise the floor as well as the bench top were covered in flowers. Jasper winked at me, then spoke in fluent Italian to the lady instantly calming her, before turning back to me.

"It's okay Isabella,. Maria is actually a shape shifter, you're the only human in about 500 miles."

I raised my eyebrows at his use of the word 'human'.

"Isabella, in case you haven't noticed your powers are coming to bloom. My kitchen, which I would have you know is over a century old, has just been covered in flowers. My vineyard is half destroyed and last night during your little nightmare you managed to smash every mirror in the house. Some of those were antiques. This wasn't the first time either. The reason we are here is because when you were passed out, you destroyed my bedroom. Peter and Emmett are currently repairing it."

"Oh."

That was it. That is all I could come up with.

"Why now? I mean I get some of it but not what happened back at the castle because that was before I agreed to be your mate."

"Your body knew the moment it came into contact with me back in Forks. Did it never occur to you that every time you were upset it would rain? When you were happy it was sunny. Can you pin point moments in time when you were really happy?"

I thought back and most of the time I was at my happiest was when Edward said he was going hunting, and it was all ways sunny on those days. The day I arrived in Italy, I noticed it was overcast. Turning to look out of the window, I could see it was sunny with a light breeze.

"See what I mean. You're happy at the moment darling, confused but happy."

I looked at him and smiled. It was useful to have someone who can feel emotions at a mate.

"I thought that we were supposed to be feeding me?"

Jasper threw his head back and laughed before hunting down some food for me.
