Unfortunately this will be the last chapter. I'm sorry to those of you who wanted this to be a long story, but I can't continue to work on this story. I want to thank all of you who added me as your favorite author, or this story to your favorites. Thank you, readers, and reviewers. You all mean a lot too me. :D

So here we go . . . on with the last chapter.

The red head was slammed into the marble walls and she fought against Isabella, but Bella was a force of nature. She made to rip the girls arm off.

"You fucking bitch! You were the reason Edward left me!"

I growled. She was still talking about that mother-fucker. He left her, how could she still . . . ? She even told me she didn't love him.

I hated being jealous. Hundreds and thousands of years and I hadn't been jealous once until now.

"Bella!" Alice yelled.

With a shrill scream from the red head her other arms was gone.

Isabella, with her normally calm nature, would probably regret killing her. She wasn't a killer., which was why if she wanted to switch to animal blood, she could. Eventually the deaths would take a toll on her.

I zipped across the room and to her side. "Isabella, I whispered. She glanced at me. "Mi amore, come here."

Her stance softened considerably and she turned to me with fear written on her every feature.

BPOV

I wasn't sure why I just tried to do that . . . I mean . . .

I don't know.

"Bella!" Alice said.

"What? Huh? Sorry, I was spacing out."

"Obviously."

We walked into my room and I was stunned by what I saw.

"Jacob . . ." I breathed. I honestly felt bipolar. Happiness, rage, to fear, and confusion. Now I was happy again.

"Hi, Bells." Jacob smiled.

"Surprise!" Alice chirped before she said, "I'll leave you two alone."

I was trying very hard so he couldn't see my eyes.

"I can't believe you're a vampire," he spat. "We could have been happy together. We could have gotten married and had kids, but no, you had to save the leach."

"Jake . . . I didn't have a choice."

"Why isn't he here now, huh? Edward doesn't love you, Bella, but I do."

My mouth parted slightly, unaware what words to utter.

"You don't care. You only go for vampires, right? No humans or any other kind of monsters? Huh?"

It wasn't my fault that I fell in love.

I looked up at Jacob. "You don't want to piss me off, Jacob Ephraim Black. Not right now. You smell horrible, but if you push me anymore I am going to drain you dry."

"Not if I tear you apart first."

"But I thought you loved me." My brows furrowed. "I'm a newborn, Jacob. I'm stronger than you think."

"Why don't we just see about that?" Jacob sighed. "Bella, no one will ever love you like I do. You just aren't someone that can be loved. I'm willing to take you even as a dirty whore-ish blo—"

I wanted to cry. Impossible.

I wanted to rip him limb from limb.

I gripped a bed post and it splintered under my grip. My eyes flashed up to Jacob .

"No one will ever—"

"Enough!" Caius shouted as he enter the room followed my Alec and Felix. Caius wrapped me in his arms. "Amore, calmati. Per favore. Nessuno vi parlerà mai più in questo modo." (Love, calm down. Please. No one will talk to you anymore in this way.)

Fire shot through me.

Why did I have to feel like this for Caius of all people?

I pulled away from him.

"I—I'm sorry. I need to go." I whispered before whisking away to the gardens.

EPOV

I'm surprised they haven't noticed me here yet. Watching her.

Bella dashed into the gardens, clearly upset.

I couldn't let her be upset.

"Bella," I whispered.

Her head snapped up.

"Come over the wall."

"No."

"Please. I can get you out of here."

I saw a light in her scarlet eyes.

BPOV

"Bella." I heard him whisper.

Edward . . .

"Come over the wall."

"No."

"Please. I can get you out of here."

I considered this. I wouldn't have to be Aro's 'daughter' and he wouldn't have to be my 'father'. Charlie was my dad, not Aro. I wouldn't have to feel the fire I felt with Caius.

But Edward had cheated on me with Tanya.

They treated me nicely here, but I would be treated nicely with Edward.

I didn't know what to say.

Caius POV

She looking ravishing and she danced like an angel, but there was something off about her tonight.

She watched the Cullens. Especially the small one. The seer and her ex. They were staring at her just as well.

The gall he had to even show up here.

"I need to get out of here for a minute," she whispered. "Go mingle."

I cocked an eyebrow at her retreating form.

Something wasn't right.

Cullen followed her and I started after them.

Bella POV

I could hear Edward right behind me.

When I was in the gardens next to the clover I stopped.

"Bella, did you decide if you would come with me?"

"I can't leave, Edward. When I'm too far away from him I feel a pull to wherever he is. I wouldn't care if he were in the pits of hell I would still feel a pull to him."

Surprisingly Edward took it rather well. "As long as you're happy."

"Edward—"

"Bella, just tell me who it is that you love." I heard footsteps nearing us, but I couldn't care who knew that I loved him.

"Caius. I love Caius."

"Thank you." Edward kissed my cheek. "Never forget me, Bella." Edward ran and Caius took his place.

I sat on a bench and stared at the ground. It was over, really over. A part of me was gone now, the old me. I just needed to push it aside for a moment.

I looked up at Caius and felt the venom well up in my eyes.

"Isabella—"

"Save it. I know that you'll never feel the same. You only watch after me because Aro told you to. I don't have anything that you would ever love."

Suddenly his hand was over my mouth and his crimson eyes where boring a hole into mine. "You have no idea how wrong you are." Slowly his hand moved from my mouth to my throat. "You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. You are brave." I put my fingers over his mouth, so he would stop. (I don't take pity compliments.) His tongue darted out licking them quickly, making the tingling and burning spread throughout my whole body. "You're responsible and hardworking. You love when others can't." Caius smiled tauntingly. "I certainly could go on about the many things I love about you. But I'm afraid Aro is going to come looking for us."

"I guess we do have a party to return to."

The End.

Thank you!
