Chapter 15- Epilogue

Two Years Later



Jacob Black stood in his bathroom, looking in the mirror for a long time. He trembled nervously thinking about what he was about to do. Today he was going to marry Renesmee. He'd thought about this day for a long time remembering the day he proposed to her a year ago. Jacob wasn't pleased that Edward made them wait an extra year before they could marry but he understood that it was difficult for him to watch his little girl grow up so quickly, losing so much precious time with her. Even though she wasn't really going anywhere, she would no longer be neighbors with them and she'd have a new life and a new husband. Edward wasn't thrilled about the second part. As much as he liked Jacob, he knew he'd have to try very hard to keep out of their heads.

Seth knocked on the door distracting his train of thought. "Hey you ever coming out? Don't make me drag you to the altar!" he shouted.

Jacob finally opened it.

Seth took one look at Jacob's half naked appearance and grunted. "You're not even dressed yet! You gonna get married your underwear or what?" he said.

Jacob rolled his eyes and turned back to the mirror. "I was shaving. I didn't wanna get it dirty," he said as he reached for his razor.

"Right, you've been shaving for an hour. A little nervous are we?" Seth teased.

"N-no," Jacob lied as he fidgeted.

Seth grinned at him. "Right!" Then he looked over at Jacob's clothes that hung on the back of the door.

They chose to have a traditional Native American wedding. It was planned for an outdoor ceremony and requested for one of the spiritual elders of the tribes to wed them. The idea of it thrilled Renesmee when Jacob proposed it to her. Alice needed a little convincing however.

"Wow, where did you get this?" Seth said as he was checking out the hip-length native shirt. He'd never seen one like it before.

"Billy found it. eBay." Jacob said grabbing it off the hanger.

“So I guess you don't have to worry about the 'thought-police' anymore now eh?" Seth chuckled.

Edward told Jacob he was forbidden to even as so much as think about his daughter in ways he shouldn't, not at least until they were married. Edward promised to bring great physical arm to Jacob if he misbehaved even the slightest.

"Nope…the ball is in my court now. And in fact, during the entire ceremony, I plan to make Edward totally squirm in his seat." Jacob grinned devilishly.

"Oh now that's just playing dirty…but I like it!" he laughed.

"Yeah well, serves him right for making me wait another whole year! Oh hey, what about you? Did you get it? Come on…let's see the goods."

Seth nodded. Then he pulled a small box out of his pocket and opened it exposing a diamond ring.

"Very nice," Jacob said looking.

"Do you think she'll like it?" Seth hoped.

"What girl doesn't like diamonds?" Jacob shrugged.

Seth snapped the box shut and sighed. "Ones that aren't too keen on the idea of marriage."

Tara never expressed any desire to marry. She only saw marriage as a human custom, but it was one that was very important to Seth and he hoped she would understand it was an experience he wanted to share with her.

"I think once she hears you pop the question, she will change her mind."

"I hope you're right," Seth stuffed it back in his pocket.



Alice was very excited that Renesmee allowed her to plan the wedding, even though she had strict guidelines to follow. She did a lot of her own research and also received some guidance from Sue. Esme and Rosalie were pleased to help with the preparations as well.

Renesmee sat in stood in the bathroom while Alice finished her last minute primping. She wore a traditional tribal wedding dress. She chose a white one, beautifully decorated with Indian beading. Her long brown curls hung down her back with just the sides pulled up off her face and a few wavy strands in the front. Alice helped her pin a ring of flowers in her hair that Sue made for her as a veil. Bella and Alice were the only ones that stayed behind to help her get ready. Alice assigned the rest of the girls with other wedding details. When Alice finished Renesmee's hair, she styled Bella's hair and laid out a sleek blue dress for her that she slipped into.



Soon, Edward arrived to escort his wife to the ceremony. He wore a black suit with blue trim that matched Bella's dress. When he politely knocked on the door, Alice unlocked it and peeked out to confirm he was alone. She opened it to let him enter. Edward then smiled at his daughter. "You look absolutely beautiful," he said.

"Thanks dad. You look pretty sharp yourself. Are you ready to give me away?"

"Never," he said shaking his head. "But I will today." He kissed her on the forehead trying not to mess up her makeup.

Alice eyed him making sure they didn't wrinkle anything. "Alrighty, lets head out. Don't wanna be late!" Alice chimed. She had everyone on a tight schedule.

"I'll take Ness, and we'll meet you guys there. Okay?"

"Got it Alice," Edward said, wanting to get her out of the room so he could get a better look at his wife's low cut dress.

When they finally disappeared, leaving them alone, he shut the door and turned to Bella, scowling.

"What's wrong?" Bella worried when she saw his mood change.

"Hmm, I'm not so sure I like this dress on you."

"Y-you don't?" She frowned, looking in the mirror disappointed.

"No, I really think maybe you should take it off," he said as he reached a finger under one of the straps on her shoulder and pulled it down her arm.

Bella suddenly grinned picking up on the hint. "Edward! We have a wedding to go to!"

"We have approximately one point seven hours before we actually have to be there. And considering I can get us there in less than fifteen minutes that gives us nearly an hour and a half…"

Before he could even finish, Bella grabbed him by the suit jacket and pulled him against her and kissed him. He quickly lifted her to the counter knocking several bottles off onto the floor, and also breaking the mirror behind her. As Edward kissed Bella's neck he slid his hands up her thighs all the way to her dress and then just a little further. He searched for an undergarment to pull down but there wasn't one. He was surprised at her and yet pleased at the same time. "Why Bella Cullen, you little minx! You have absolutely nothing on under this dress!"

"Hmm, I guess maybe we won't need to remove it then." She grinned trying to act coy.

Edward was amused. "Oh, I'm not so sure, I think Alice would be pretty upset if I accidentally tore it. Maybe we should remove it, just to be on the safe side." He began to unzip the back, smiling at her.

"Okay, just to be safe," she agreed and he slipped it off her, gently laying it on the chair behind them along with his jacket, then he quickly returned to his former position.

"Hmm, now where were we?" he asked as he gripped her and pulled her body into his.

She wrapped her legs around his waist. "I think we're kind of trashing Alice's beauty supplies. We better be more careful."

"Yes, I think you’re right." Edward wrapped his arms around her and picked her up. Her legs were still wrapped around him. He carried her over to the wall and pressed her back up against it. The vibration made a picture frame fall off the wall but they didn't even notice as they were so wrapped up in the passion of the moment. Edward counted down the time. He had approximately one point six hours left and he was about to make every second of it count.



It was June: The Summer Solstice.

Alice helped them pick the perfect date that would give them the driest day of the year. As predicted, it had been a clear day and they were going to start the ceremony once the sun began to set.

The décor was all very traditional. It consisted of decorative baskets filled with corn as a symbol of fertility and others filled with various plant foods for blessings. There were animals hides displayed near the altar, and a water bowl used for a symbol of purification and cleansing. Alice made sure to include flowers everywhere.

As the guests arrived, Seth, Quil and Embry seated them. All of the Cullens sat on the bride's side and the pack on the other. A few close friends and family, including Renee showed up.

Everyone in the wedding party arrived on time except Bella and Edward. Renesmee tried to calm Alice who started to panic, until they saw Edward's Audi finally.

"Where the heck have you guys been?" Alice demanded to know when they finally strolled in. "We left you over an hour ago."

"Sorry Alice, I had car trouble." Edward lied.

"You…" She paused, and her eyes narrowed into slits. "What kind of car trouble?" Alice asked suspiciously, putting her hands on her hips.

She had difficulty seeing most spontaneous events and Edward hoped his moment with Bella was one of those events. He made sure to pick her brain before fabricating his cover-up story, to see if she knew or not. Fortunately for him, Rosalie came over and distracted Alice's attention before she could question him further.

"Where do you want me to put these?" Rosalie asked, holding two large baskets in her hand.

Alice grabbed one from her and then told her to give the other one to Billy Black who already took his place next to his son at altar. While Rosalie kept Alice's attention occupied, Edward noticed Bella's zipper in the back of her dress was half way down. He stealthy pulled it up with one hand before Alice even noticed. When Bella giggled, Alice looked back at the two of them, even more suspicious now. She stared at Bella as she handed the other basket to her and noticed something else.

"Bella! What happened to your makeup? I can't even tell you are wearing lipstick!"

"Ah…well.." Bella stuttered trying to think of an excuse.

Just then, Esme showed up with Renesmee. "She's all yours Edward…at least for the next half hour." Esme winked at him. Then she kissed Renesmee and took her seat.

Edward knew this was his out.

Another save, he thought

"I think you better take your place Bella," he quickly said as he rushed her out of Alice's sights, gladly escaping his sister's interrogation.

Once everyone took their place, someone began to play a melody on an Indian love flute and Edward walked Renesmee down the aisle. When they reached the alter, he leaned in and kissed his daughter’s on the cheek and then she took her position in front, right next to a ceremonial water bowl. Two white flowers floated in the water as a sign of purity for them. Bella and Billy held their baskets, waiting for the ceremony to begin. Once Jacob laid his eyes on his beautiful bride, he didn't need to try very hard to get under Edward's skin. He couldn't take his eyes off her.

The spiritual leader spoke. "What do you provide for this union of marriage?" he said, looking at Renesmee.

Bella handed her the basket she held and she then gave it to Jacob reciting her vows.

"I provide these things to you, they are a symbol that I will care and love you always."

The leader asked the same of Jacob. Billy then handed him his basket and he gave it to Renesmee. "I provide these things to you. They are a symbol that I will provide, love and protect our family always." Jacob said as he looked in her eyes.

They then were instructed to place the baskets aside and dip their hands into the ceremonial bowl of water. While everyone watched the ritual, Seth looked over at Tara and smiled taking her hand. She returned a smile to him.

The spiritual leader spoke to them again. "Now you will feel no rain, for you will be shelter to each other. You will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other. There is no more loneliness, for each of you will be companion to the other. You are two bodies, but there is only one life before you. May your days be good and long upon the Earth."

Jacob and Renesmee exchanged rings and personal vows that they wrote for one another. Then the Holy man took a large white blanket and wrapped it around them both, symbolizing their unity, and he spoke again. "Oh, Creator and nurturer of all life, we give heartfelt thanks for the moment that brought Jacob Black, and Renesmee Cullen together in the Holy state of Marriage. Now as you both have consented and have pledged your faith to each other before your community, according to the powers vested in me by the state of Washington, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may seal your union with a kiss."

As Jacob put his arms around his new wife and pulled her in for a kiss, all of the pack stood up to howl and cheer. Even Emmett stood up and cheered them on and then all the others joined in making noise. Edward was the only one groaning rubbing his head.

Bella leaned over to him. "I hear Alaska is beautiful this time of year," she teased.


One the ceremony ended, everyone followed the happy couple to the Cullen home for the reception.

All of the furniture had been moved out of the living room that over-looked the back yard, making a small dance floor. Several tables were placed around the room for the guests. Most of Jacob's closest friends and family came to the reception party. Alice decorated the house of course. She wasn't quite as restricted on this task since it was in her territory. Renesmee picked the colors of red and white and she filled the house with bouquets of red and white roses everywhere. Candles and flowers were on every table in the room and almost everywhere in the house. All of the table cloths matched the flowers and she trimmed everything with red and white ribbon.

They hired private caterers to prepare and serve the food. Once the guests that ate finished, Jacob and Renesmee cut their wedding cake (also trimmed in red and white) and fed it to each other. They both of course grabbed handfuls to smash in each others faces like little kids. Alice nearly had a fit but everyone else laughed as they did and then kissed with their faces full of cake.

Afterwards, Jacob took Renesmee up stairs so they could wash off. Renesmee got too much cake on her tribal dress so she changed into an ivory one that Alice laid out for her to wear when they were to leave for their honeymoon. When she came out of her room, she had Jacob zip up the back. She held up her long hair as he slowly pulled the long zipper up her back. Then she turned to face him and smiled.

He already removed his tribal jacket, wearing only a white button up shirt with his dress pants.

Jacob wrapped his arms around his new bride, staring at her beauty. "I can't wait to take this off of you later." He whispered in her ear.

Renesmee blushed. "You're lucky my dad's not around to hear to say that Jacob Black." She teased.

"Oh no, I can think and say whatever I want about my new wife now. Edward will just have to tune me out from now on if he doesn't like it."

She laughed thinking about her poor dad. "He seemed pretty distressed during the ceremony. I've never seen him so fidgety before"

Jacob tried to hold back a laugh but was failing horribly.

"Jake…what did you do? What were you thinking about during the wedding?"

"Oh I dunno just….you and … the honeymoon."

She gasped and swatted him.

"Hey! Stop that, I'm allowed now!"

"Don't torment my dad like that, it's not nice. Besides I don't want him to be thinking about me that way."

"Ness, you're spoiling all my fun," Jacob complained. "At least let me mess with him just for tonight, and then I promise I'll keep everything private…deal?"

Ness rolled her eyes. I don't even want to know," she said.

He laughed and then gave her a kiss that lasted a very long time. When he parted he looked her in the eyes and took her hand.

"So would you care to dance with your husband Mrs. Black?"

"Yes, very much," she agreed, and then they headed back downstairs where the guests all mingled and danced.

Edward and Bella twirled gracefully out on the dance floor. Jacob and Renesmee took their first dance together and then when the song changed, Renesmee danced with her father.

Rosalie and Emmett, Alice and Jasper, and Esme and Carlisle all danced. Sue even managed to get Charlie out on the dance floor for spin. He was a clumsy as ever but they laughed every time he stumbled or stomped on her foot. Seth chuckled as he watched them having fun together. He and Tara sat at their table watching everyone. Seth had become very quiet as he'd been trying to think of a plan for his proposal to her. He'd been unsuccessful so far.

"Are you okay tonight?" Tara asked him as she rested her hand in his leg.

"Fine. Why?"

"Because you seem really tense, plus you hardly touched you food. Are you sure you're alright?"

He put his hand over her. "I'm sure," As he stared into her eyes, he tried desperately to ask her but tensed up and the words wouldn't come. Finally he decided he would just excuse himself. "I'll, um…be right back okay?"

She nodded and watched him as he ran off. She expected him to head to the bathroom perhaps, but he ran into the kitchen instead. He leaned against the wall fearful he might pass out.

When the dance tunes changed to something more upbeat, several of the couples dispersed. Jacob and Renesmee stayed on the floor and did a funny little routine that looked like they rehearsed. The pack laughed and cheered them on. Tara moved over to sit with Bella and Esme and watched. She enjoyed herself though she couldn't quite figure out why Seth kept acting so odd.

After a few minutes, Seth peaked around the corner and saw that Tara moved from their table to sit with Bella and Esme. He watched her as he tried to calm himself.

Edward casually strolled over to Seth and leaned over to him. "Relax, your heart is racing too loudly, she'll pick up on that." He advised.

Seth realized Edward knew what he was planning to do and he grabbed Edward by the front of his jacket and pulled him around the corner. Edward gave him an objectionable stare and then looked down at his hand that was still gripping his lapel.

Seth noticed the unpleasant look he had on his face and let go. "Oh,..sorry," he said nervously trying to smooth out the wrinkle his hand made. "Tell me what do what do Edward please, I'm so nervous right now."

Edward chuckled at him with a sigh. "Well first of all you should probably try breathing. You need to calm yourself down."

"Yeah, I've been trying," he said as he took some deep breaths.

A caterer passed by them carrying a tray with several glasses of champagne on it. Seth quickly snatched one off the tray as the man kept walking, not even noticing. He began to chug it down quickly.

Edward grabbed the glass just before he got to finish it. "Hey slow down! You're not even twenty-one yet."

"Yeah, well I have a pretty good excuse right now."

Edward looked at him, debating the facts. "Okay you're right... here." He handed him the glass back and he finished it.

Seth's hands trembled.

Edward put his hand on his shoulder. "Deep breaths, relax."

"Right." Seth inhaled deeply.

"Now, I want you to go ask her for a dance." Edward told him.

"A dance? Um…" Seth stared at Tara.

Edward could clearly see he didn't know how to dance. "Yes, a dance, she's been wanting you to ask her. Don't worry she knows how, she can just lead you. Just try not to step on her feet with those boats of yours."

Seth looked down at his size-thirteen shoes. "Well then what do I do?"

Edward sighed. "Seth, do I have to do all the work for you?"

"Ah yes actually, since you're experienced at this ...How about you go ask her to marry me," he joked, holding out the ring to him.

Just then another waiter passed by looking at Seth as he held the engagement ring out to Edward. He heard only the last two words Seth said to him and snickered. Edward rolled his eyes and grabbed Seth's hand covering the ring.

When Edward shook his head, Seth noticed something on his ear. "Uh, is that lipstick on your um..." without finishing, he just pointed at Edward's ear, giving him a funny look.

Edward's expression changed to surprise. Feeling a little embarrassed, he just decided to ignore the comment. "I'll take care of the music for you. You just go and dance," he ordered. before he walked off, rubbing his ear with a handkerchief.

Seth put the ring back in his pocket and then he headed in Tara's direction, still trying to get his heart rate down. Relax Seth, relax, he reminded himself.

He smiled nervously as Tara turned her head to look at him. "Hey," he said to her.

Then he turned to Esme. "Hi Esme, beautiful job you did. The house looks great," he complimented.

"Well thank you Seth, but I have to give most of the credit to Alice of course. She's been working for days, non-stop to do all this."

"I'll bet. Well you'd think a pro came in here. Maybe she needs to start up her own business in party planning or something."

"You know, that's not a bad idea," Esme smiled.

Just then, Carlisle walked up to Esme when he heard the change in tune and swooped her away for a dance. Edward came over and did the same with Bella.

Tara turned to Seth. "So, are you feeling alright? You disappeared for awhile there."

"Oh yeah…I'm ah…I'm fine. Yup," he rambled nervously. His heart rate sped up again.

"You don't sound fine. What are you up? Are you and Jake plotting some joke I need to be in on or something?" She fished.

Seth chuckled nervously, glad she had no suspicions at least. "No, we're not plotting anything. Actually I was just kind wondering if you know how to ..um…how to dance."

She looked at him with a strange stare. "Yes, I can dance."

"Well good cuz I was kinda hoping you'd show me how."

Her eyebrow rose. "You want me to show you how to dance?"

"Yes, please? If you wouldn't mind?" He held out his hand.

"Of course not, why didn't you just tell me you didn't know how instead of acting weird all night?"

"Ah.." he paused. Play it off, this is good. Just play it off, he thought. "Sorry, I was kind of embarrassed," he fibbed.

"It's fine, come on." She grabbed his hand and pulled him to the dance floor. She took his right hand in hers and then put his left one at the small of her back. Then she placed hers on his left shoulder.

So, it kinda goes like this…" she started, as she tried to remember the moves.

"Um, actually would you mind if we went outside instead?" he interrupted.

"Outside?" she stopped moving.

"Yeah it's a little less crowded out there." He started to pull her by the hand.

"Oh…okay." She followed.

They walked out to the courtyard. A giant fountain stood in the center with an angel that poured water down into it from a vase. The pool was lit up with a multi-colored lights and filled with fresh white lilies that all floated on the top. There were bouquets of flowers everywhere and a dozen more candles. The setting was perfect he thought.

"This is better," he said. He took her arms and placed them on his shoulders and then wrapped his arms comfortably around her waist and began to sway back and forth.

"Um…do you want me to show you some steps?" He just kept moving along with him as she spoke.

He shook his head. "Nope not yet, I kinda like this right here."

She smiled. "Sure." She didn't mind. She liked being alone for a while.

They could still hear the music playing, just not as blaringly loud.

He put his lips to her hair. "Have I told you how gorgeous that dress is on you?"

"Mmm, no actually you haven't said much of anything to me tonight, I was getting worried."

"I'm sorry. I guess I was just a little distracted. You do however, look very beautiful. Red really suits you."

"Thanks," she said, delighted.

They moved along with the music quietly for a few moments. Then Seth decided to ease into the subject. "So… what did you think of the ceremony?"

"Oh, it was lovely. I've never seen a traditional wedding like that. I enjoyed the experience."

"Really?"

"Yes, the vows were beautiful. It's a very sweet human custom."

He didn't like that she put it in those terms. "Well, I told you, human customs are kinda nice."

"Yes, but I think they only did it to appeased Edward. He so very old-fashioned." She rolled her eyes.

He stopped moving and became more serious."Uh, no, Jacob wanted to marry her, he's been wanting this for a long time. It's a very important custom in our heritage."

"Oh." She replied, absorbing his comment. She thought for a moment and then got the hint. "Well it just seems so unnecessary. I just don't see the point. I know how I feel about you and that's all I need really."

Seth frowned. "You're not the only one in this relationship with needs you know."

Tara stopped moving. His words cut through her. Seth tried to keep dancing but it was like pushing against a solid wall. She looked at his eyes and saw the hurt behind them."I didn't know it was that important to you."

Seth nodded. "Well, not so much the ceremony and stuff, just the union. It holds great meaning for our people. I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to be mean about it…I just want you to understand how I feel."

"I do. Forgive me for being so selfish. I just didn't give it much thought before. It's just that… I don't see how a piece of paper will change anything between us. Marriage is a custom that humans need for legal status and such and well…I have no legal status. I don't even exist in this world." She lowered her eyes.

He took her face in his hands. "You exist in my world, and that's all that matters to me." Then he leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips.

She smiled at him when they parted. "Thank you."

"What for?"

"Everything - you give me everything Seth. You shined your light on my dark world and gave me a give me a reason to live. If this is something you really want, I'd be more than happy to give that to you."

"But…would it mean anything to you?" He worried.

"Of course it would. Anything I experience with you means everything to me." She stared into his eyes. "In a hundred years from now, I'll remember this dance with you like it was yesterday. I cherish every moment."

He hugged her. "Thank you. So will I...if I get to live that long."

She squeezed him tighter thinking about the 'if' part of his comment. She never wanted to let him go.

After a few minutes of a silent embrace he began dancing with her again. They continued their gentle sway back and forth.

Seth expressed another thought. "Besides...I think Tara Clearwater has a really nice ring to it, and there's always ways of getting around the legality of things."

Her face changed. She liked the sound of her name joined with his. "Hmm, I rather like the sound of that. I've never thought of it that way before."

"Told you." He smiled pressing his lips to her hair.

"So… I guess that just means one of these days you'll just have to…ask…..…me…"

Tara's words slowed down as she eyed Seth dropping down on one knee before she had even finished her sentence. She froze like a statue as he pulled the box from his pocket and opened it exposing the ring. Her eyes widened as they fixated on it.

"Tara Spaulding… will you be my wife?" he asked her, looking her straight in her eyes waiting for a response.

The two of them became so wrapped up in conversation, they didn't even notice that the music stopped and that the entire wedding party stared out the window looking and listening with eager smiles on their faces. Edward tipped everyone off and they all began to gather around the bay windows to witness the event.

"Tara?" Seth said to her waiting.

"How…how did you even know my last name? I never told you."

He grinned. "I have an informant."

Tara then turned her head to look for Edward and noticed the whole entire wedding party was starring right at them. She gasped. Then she turned back to Seth and felt her knees giving out.

"Whoa, hey, you okay?" he said as he caught her just as she dropped to her knees right in front of him.

Everyone inside tried to listen in. The vampires tuned in their keen senses as the listened but they hadn't heard Tara say yes yet.

"What's she saying Edward?" Esme asked knowing Edward could hear her thoughts.

They all looked at him curiously, wanting to know.

"She's actually speechless! Even in her mind. I think he stunned her." He laughed.

Tara put her arms around Seth's neck and held onto him. "You actually made me weak in the knees."

"Did I?" he smiled pleased with himself.

She nodded.

His eyebrows went up as he patiently waited. "Um, you haven't answered my question yet."

The corners of her mouth turned up and she nodded. "Yes, I'll be your wife." She answered.

Seth smiled and then slipped the ring on her finger. She stared at it in awe. Then he reached for her face and pulled her in for a kiss.

The entire party started cheering. The pack howled.

Seth wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her up. He embraced her and whispered in her hair. "I love you Tara. I'll cherish you every day of my life."

Then they kissed again even more passionately. He was on top of the world.

PART TWO...



Chapter 1 - Honeymoon

Jacob and Renesmee landed at the Kodiak Airport in Alaska. After a three and a half hour flight, they were eager to exit the aircraft and head to their honeymoon destination.
Though Carlisle offered to let them stay at Esme Isle, Jacob decided it would be much too awkward staying in the same place Renesmee had been conceived. His new wife agreed knowing they would both probably feel very uncomfortable even sleeping in the same bed that Edward and Bella shared.
Carlisle and Esme understood completely and offered them a cozy cabin they owned in Alaska; another piece of property in their plethora of real estate stockpile. They both happily agreed on the idea of an Alaskan trip, figuring it would be perfectly secluded as well as provide an abundance of hunting area. Carlisle gave them very strict guidelines however on where it was safe to take Renesmee hunting. They wanted to avoid another incident like the previous one that nearly took Jacob’s life.

The temperature was a comfortable 64 degrees for a June afternoon though the surrounding mountainous peaks in the distance were dusted with a layer of white powder.
Carlisle had arranged for a driver to take them to their cabin. As they entered the terminal, Renesmee looked around and then finally spotted a large man in a dark suit, holding a sign up that read; “Mr. and Mrs. Black”
She nudged her husband to get his attention. “Jake,” she said pointing in the man’s direction.
Jacob glanced at the sign and then shrugged. “Well, that must be our ride.”
They walked up the large Native. Renesmee thought he looked much like an Eskimo.
“Um, hi, we’re Mr. and Mrs. Black,” Jacob said to him as they approached.
The large man stood at equal height to Jacob though his body frame was much rounder.
“I’m Akiak, your driver. It’s a pleasure to meet you,” he nodded.
“Hi Akiak!” Renesmee said cheerfully and then introduced Jacob and herself. She’d been reading about the Alutiiq culture before arriving and was excited to meet a true Native to the Island.
Akiak smiled back, unable to resist her beauty and charm. He liked that she was the extremely friendly type especially since he was used to tourist with poor manners and less than pleasant personalities. It was the beginning of a very chatty conversation between the two, starting from the very moment they got in the car to head for their cabin.
Renesmee started off by asking the man a dozen questions about his family and his life on the island. He was very impressed with the amount of knowledge she had about their culture. It was rare he’d ever get a customer that knew so much or even cared about their tiny little town and civilization. Jacob just sat quietly listening in on the two as they became friends quickly. It was the first person Renesmee really got to know outside of her home life and she was extremely excited about it. Her bond with him was almost instant and she felt like she’d already known Akiak for a long time. In fact he became so wrapped up in the conversation he almost didn’t see the giant moose that decided to casually stroll across the intersection in front of them. Akiak quickly applied his foot to the brakes making the car come to a screeching halt. Jacob and Renesmee were tossed forward a little bit before their seat belts locked in. Jacob instantly put his arm in front of his wife to protect her even though she was safely buckled in.
“Everyone alright back there?” he said turning his head to check on his passengers. “Really sorry about that…they do this all the time. I should really be used to it by now.”
“We’re fine,” Jacob replied.
Renesmee gasped when she saw the moose. It was the first one she’s ever seen live. “Wow, Jake look at that guy!” she squealed excitedly from the back seat starting at the large beast. “Hmm, wonder what those taste like?”
“I dunno, maybe we’ll find out,” Jacob responded without thought.
“Oh, you guys like to hunt?” Akiak asked.
“Oops” The couple thought simultaneously, forgetting there was a third set of ears in the car.
“Um, yeah I like to hunt and she likes to eat,” Jacob said quickly to cover their story.
“Well you’re in luck, the moose are in season right now. Probably why this guy is hanging out in town. It’s safer.” He chuckled. “No hunting within in city limits of course.”
The moose finally reached the other side of the street. Akiak continued driving again being more cautious of the road now. “You don’t look like you brought any gear with you though.” He noticed.
“Uh, no. We’re actually on our honeymoon; I didn’t think to bring that sort of thing. I wasn’t sure how often we’d leave the cabin ya know.” Jacob winked when the guy looked in the rear view mirror.
Renesmee gasped nudging him. “Jake!”
Akiak chuckled. “Well if you do decide to, there happens to be a small shop in town that rents equipment, so long as you have a hunting license. What kind of game you like?”
“Grizzly!” Renesmee said before Jacob even opened his mouth.
Akiak looked a little surprised by her answer. “Uh, oh… well those aren’t in season my dear. In fact you’d get a huge fine for hunting game that aren’t in season right now. Sorry… but don’t worry, there’s plenty of moose here. Besides, hunting helps control the over population.”
“Oh I’m all about that,” she grinned.
Akiak looked up at her in the mirror. “Did you know that the bears on the island actually migrated from the mainland around twelve-thousand years ago… after the last ice age?” he asked her.
Renesmee was like an encyclopedia, full of information most people never cared about. “Yes. And I also red that the natives on the island descended from Asiatic peoples and they also migrated here around twelve-thousand years ago.”
“Yes that’s correct.” He smiled.
“Your people have quite an amazing history. They really give meaning to the phrase, survival of the fittest,” she said.
“I’ll say…after enduring earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves and wars, we’re still here!”
“Wow Ness, I didn’t know you had the time to do so much research with all our wedding plans,” Jacob remarked.
“I read every night before bed. It helps me sleep better,” she replied.
Despite the near slip up about hunting, Akiak certainly had no reason to suspect what Renesmee really was. She seemed like a happy and normal yet very bright young woman. He took a liking to her, wishing there were more people like her around.


Jacob still had his mind on hunting, knowing Renesmee would want more than just human food during their stay. “Hey…uh, so hunters won’t shoot at wildlife that’s outta season then right?” he asked concerned. That last thing he wanted was to have another hunting accident, especially being so far from home.
“Well I can’t say there haven’t been accidents but the rangers keep a close eye out for poachers. The best place for you to hunt would be on Painted Mountain. Not a lot of hunters go there because it’s pretty difficult to get to and the benefit is you’d have a lot more game to hunt. The moose know it’s a safer place, so they tend to stay on higher ground,” he explained.
“That’s smart. So, what makes you think it’s would be a good place for us?” Jacob wondered.
The man shrugged. “Oh you just strike me as the kind of guy that could handle the terrain. You’re in great shape. Bet you work out, huh?”
Jacob chuckled. He gets that assumption from a lot from strangers, especially ones that come into his shop. “Uh, yeah, yeah, in my spare time,” he replied although in his mind he was thinking about his workout routine which actually consisted of running around the forest as a giant wolf, chasing vampires.

When they finally pulled up to the cabin, Jacob opened the door for Renesmee and like a gentleman he took her hand and helped her out of the car. Akiak stepped out and unloaded their bags from the trunk and then Jacob pulled out his wallet and flipped through several bills until he found a ten and handed it to him.
“Quyanaa,” Akiak said in his native tongue.
Jacob gave him an odd look.
“Thank you.” He translated.
“Oh. No problem. Thanks for the ride.” Jacob replied offering a hand to shake.
“Thank you Akiak! It was so nice meeting you,” Renesmee said grinned ear to ear at the large man.
“My pleasure, Miss Renesmee. And it was wonderful meeting you too.” He smiled. Akiak really liked her and he genuinely didn’t like people so quickly.
“Will we be seeing you on our way home too or will they send a different driver?” she asked.
“Oh, I’m not too sure but I’ll see if I can work it out so I get to drive you. How long is your stay going to be?”
“Two weeks.” Jacob answered grabbing the bags with ease.
“Okay, I’ll be checking for your names on the roster then.”
Renesmee gave him one of her big hugs and it made him smile. He’d never encounter such a charming young girl as Renesmee before. She was a breath of fresh air. She waved to the driver as left. Then they grabbed their belongings and headed into the cabin.

Jacob pulled out the key Carlisle gave him and opened the door. Before Renesmee could take another step, he dropped his bags, swept her off her feet and pushed the door open with his foot so he could carry her through the threshold. He stopped in the entryway as they gave the room a once over from where they stood. It wasn’t quite as small as they expected.
They entered into the living room first which was fully furnished with a matching set of leather couches. Various antique tables were arranged around the room, all with decorative native art pieces on them. There was a large cobblestone fire place with a fresh stack of wood next to it.
Jacob set Renesmee down and they both wandered around the place taking it in. He of course, headed straight for the kitchen and checked the fridge first. “Wow, they actually stocked the place!”
The over-sized appliance that Carlisle just had installed for their visit was filled with a variety of food, enough to last two weeks. Even the freezer was stocked with meat, frozen vegetables and deserts. Jacob grabbed a bucket of chocolate ice cream right off the first shelf.
“Nice!” he said while searching for a spoon. His stomach grumbled just from looking at all food. The stuff they served on the airplane was horrible and he’d finished all the snacks Esme packed for them almost half way into the trip.

Meanwhile, Renesmee gave herself a tour of the master bedroom downstairs. Her eyes zoomed in on the giant canopy framed bed in the center of the room covered with a dozen fluffy white pillows. The walls were painted a soft gray with red accents. White candles were arranged everywhere throughout the room. There was an adjoining bathroom just inside another door in the room, also decorated in a matching red and white theme. She checked out the huge Roman tub, climbing into it and imagining herself taking a bath in it later. It was big enough to fit her and Jacob in there, she’d though.
Once she was satisfied, she decided to see what Jacob was up to, noticing a lot of clanking coming from the kitchen.
“Shouldn’t you have dinner first?” she said to him as she watched him put a heaping scoop of ice cream in his mouth.
It only took seconds to turn to liquid and he swallowed.
“No worries, I could eat this and entire contents on the top shelf in there right now.”
“Maybe we should cook something for you then,” she suggested.
“Umm, maybe I should do the cooking,” he suggested. “I’ll make us both something.”
Jacob knew that Renesmee in a kitchen easily spelled disaster.
“Okay sure, just as long as I still get my moose later.”
He chuckled. “Okay, okay, I will make sure you get your moose.” He leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips.
His lips were colder than normal and tasted like chocolate but she didn’t mind at the moment. She inched closer to him and slid her arms around his waist. His body began to press against hers until she was backed into the center island and all the while still holding the bucket of ice cream in one hand and the spoon in the other. He managed to set the ice cream on the counter but the spoon missed and fell to the floor with a loud clang. Neither of them seemed to notice since they were tightly locked in an embrace for a long kiss that made Renesmee’s heart rate speed up. Jacob’s fingers gripped her body and lifted her off the ground, seating her on the counter. She wrapped her legs around him and crossed her feet pulling his body even closer to hers. Jacob felt every emotion she was feeling with each touch as her visions ran through him. He knew exactly what she wanted but he was quite ready for it just yet.
He pulled back and looked her in the eyes. She smiled and let out a heavy exhale. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing’s wrong. Absolutely nothing.”
“Then why’d you stop? Aren’t you enjoying this?” She looked at him seductively while running her hands along the frame of his chest and then ran her fingertips through the back of his hair.
It was hard for his to resist when she did that to him. He nodded silently looking into her eyes and breathing heavily. He could no longer think straight but before he could lean in to kiss her again his stomach let out a huge growl. Renesmee giggled realizing what his needs were now.
“It was a long flight. What do you say you go shower while I make us some food?” he suggested.
“That sounds good.” She agreed, but she had her mind on the big tub instead. He gently slid her down off the counter till her feet touched the floor and she grabbed her travel bag and then headed for the bathroom.
She immediately turned on the hot water and began to fill the tub. The bath solution she poured in the stream started bubbling up while steam rose up and fogged the chrome.

In the kitchen, Jacob pulled out two steaks and seasoned them just before throwing them on the grill on the kitchen range. They sizzled over the fire while he searched for plates and utensils and set the table.
Renesmee’s timing was perfect. She toweled off once she was done and then searched through her bag to find something to wear. She pulled out a piece of lingerie that Alice snuck into her suitcase. A wedding gift that she made sure Edward didn’t see.
She slipped on the white lacey garment and then threw her big fuzzy bathrobe over it. Then she towel dried her hair and ran her fingers through it knowing it would take too long to comb it all out.

When she stepped out into the living room, she noticed the setting was all new. The lights were turned down and the fire place was going. Several candles were lit throughout the room, setting a very romantic mood. The dining table was set eloquently with fancy dishes and a candle center-piece.
Jacob pulled the chair out for her. “Mrs. Black.” His hand movement gestured for her to sit.
“Why thank you Mr. Black,” she strolled over and sat down in the chair before taking his seat across from her.
Her plate had a large steak on it. He made it the way she liked it – extra rare. She stifled a giggle when she saw side of fries next to it though. The slender flute that accompanied her dish was half full of a bubbly liquid.
“What’s this?” she asked.
“Champagne. There was a bottle chilling in the fridge so I assume it’s a gift for us. I figure a half a glass won’t hurt for a toast.”
“Hmm, very classy. It’ll be good with the French fries,” she teased.
He laughed, “Sorry, I didn’t have the patience to make anything else. These were only ten minutes in the oven.”
“It’s perfect.” She took the glass in her hand and lifted it. She was curious since she’d never seen or tasted champagne before. It was something they always drank in many of the classic movies she enjoyed.
Renesmee took a sip of the fizzy drink. It tickled her nose and she made sour face when she swallowed.
“Not so good?” he asked. She shook her head. Though her body was designed to digest both human food as well as blood, she usually preferred her blood diet. She only ate a limited amount of foods that appealed to her, eggs usually being her favorite. She also rarely ever drank fluids since the blood kept her perfectly hydrated. She hated most beverages, especially sweet ones.
“I think I’ll just stick to the steak.” She unfolded her napkin and placed it on her lap. As she daintily made slices through the meat, the blood seeped out and pooled up in the plate. Though she generally preferred her beef to be mooing when she bit into it, she didn’t mind eating extremely rare steaks on occasion. Proteins were always her preferred food group. She left the fries alone knowing Jacob would probably help himself. Not that she minded.

When they finished, they cleaned up in the kitchen and then Jacob threw some more wood on the fire. It was primarily for the mood since neither of the required the heat.
Suddenly the sound of rain started tapping on the cabin roof and Renesmee stood by the window watch the heavy droplets that fell to the ground. “Hmm, just like home,” she said.
Jacob snuck up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her in close. His put his warm cheek against hers and just held her for a while looking out at the drab colorless sky.
She nearly lost track of time, falling into a soothing trance as he held her. It wasn’t until he pressed his lips to the base of her neck that alerted every sensation in her body. Then he swept her hair back over her other shoulder exposing the smooth skin on her neck, where he brushed his lips along the length it of the moving upward till he reached her ear. Her body tingled when he traced the edges of it with his tongue. She let out a pleasurable sigh and then turned her body to face him. She unraveled the sash on her robe letting it fall to floor and stood before him showing off the slinky little gown with spaghetti straps. The bottom barely covered her thighs.
“Uh…where’d that come from?” his eyes widened.
“It was a gift from Alice. She said she was really glad that she couldn’t see what your reaction was going to be.” she giggled.
He chuckled, agreeing. “Hmm, well I will be sure to thank the little runt when we get home.”
“Does that mean you like it?”
“Oh, Yes.” He grinned.
Renesmee smiled. “Cuz, if not…you can always take it off me.” She leaned in to kiss him again but he just grinned and then pressed his finger to her eager lips.
“Hold that thought, I’ll be back in few minutes.” he said just before disappearing into the bedroom.
She wondered what he was up to. Within a few seconds she heard the water running. Jacobs started cleaning himself up from the long trip. Renesmee plopped herself down on the shaggy carpet in front of the fire place and waited. She poked the hot embers with a tool and flipped one of the logs that didn’t seem to be getting any heat. The fire started to roar again once the dry wood caught fire. Then she gathered all the throw pillows off the couch and arranged them on the floor making the spot even cushier than before. She sprawled out on the floor waiting. Within a few minutes however, her eye lids began to close and she dozed off.

When Jacob finished he returned wearing only a pair of jogging pants. He found her sleeping by the fire with one arm tucked under her head. He had something in his hand that he set aside on the carpet then, curled up his body against hers and began playing with her hair as he admired her beauty.
“I’m sorry. I took too long,” he whispered.
“It’s okay, I’m barely sleeping,” her eyelids fluttered slightly as she rolled her body towards him.
“You too tired?” he asked while spinning one of her long curls with his finger.
“Certainly not!” her eyes suddenly popped open.
He smiled. “Good, I was hoping you’d say that.” Then he stroked her cheek then leaned down to kiss her smooth lips.
Her body felt warmer on the side facing the fire. Jacob curled up next to her slid his hand under her back and pulled her in close and she instantly perked up. Sleep was the furthest thing on her mind now and she kissed him like never before running her through his thick black hair. Their hearts both started beating rapidly. Jacob’s nervously slid his hand further down her back over the thin layer of lace and silk that separated his skin from hers. When he found the bottom of her negligee, he gripped her thigh and wrapped it around his body. He caressed the smooth bare skin on her leg, running his fingers back and forth giving her goose bumps as he touched her. Then, before he realized it his hand had gone further up her lingerie than he thought but still only felt nothing but bare skin.
“Um…are you even wearing anything under this?” he asked.
“It’s a thong,” she grinned devilishly with a nervous giggle.
“I really must remember to thank that little vampire,” he thought. Then Jacob’s fingers finally found the tiny piece of material that circled around her hips and he ran them along the outline of them from her waistline all the way down to her buttocks where the line disappeared. Renesmee’s body quivered feeling his warm hands underneath her. Then his lips parted from hers, moving to her neck and every nerve ending became alive when his tongue brushed her throat. One of his hands drifted up the side of her body and swept her hair back and then he slipped the strap of her gown off her shoulder. His mouth kissed a trail all the way to her collar bone until the material got in the way.
“Want me to help you take this off me?” she asked
Jacob’s hand started to tremble now. He nervously looked her in the eyes and nodded.
Renesmee sat up and pulled the garment over her head exposing her naked body. Her long hair fell back down and covered her breast. Jacob anxiously swallowed feeling hesitant.
She could see he looked tense and she touched his face and smiled.
“I’m nervous too, but don’t be scared. We’re meant to be together,” she said trying to comfort him.
He smiled at her. “I know.” Then he swept her hair back and leaned in and kissed her shoulder. She leaned down and pressed her body against his, feeling his heart wildly pounding inside his chest. She pressed her lips to his soft bare chest and kissed him as her hand traveled down to his waist and made an attempt to undress him too.
“N -Ness,” Jacob whispered.
“Mmm?” her lips moved up along his color bone now.
“I think we should um, you know…use something.”
Renesmee wasn’t quite sure where to go with that. She paused for a moment while kissing his chest. “Use, what?” she whispered.
“You know…protection.”
She suddenly stopped what she was doing and looked at him. “Um wow Jake, great mood breaker,” she said in a flat tone.
“I’m sorry. I’m just worried you know…. I think it’s a good idea.”
“Well, I don’t. I’m not worried about much of anything right now.” She shoved him onto his back and straddled him, kissing his neck and chest totally ignoring the thought.
Jacob didn’t want to resist but had to. “Ness I’m serious, I think we should.”
Renesmee stopped again and sighed impatiently. “Jake, I hardly want to interrupt the most amazing moment of my life so you can take a time-out to put on a condom! Ick! I can’t even believe you just made me say that!”
“But we should be careful. I mean we don’t know what could happen,” he argued.
“We can just find out then…Jake, you’re really ruining the moment here,” she complained while trying to finish what she started.
He grabbed her hand to stop her from advancing any further.
“Jake! What’s your problem? This is our honeymoon. I want to enjoy the experience without any of this, okay?” she grabbed the pack of condoms he’d hid behind him under the table and held them up. “I just want to enjoy us, without these!”
“I understand Ness, it’s just that we don’t know what could happen. Edward and I think this is for the best.”
She suddenly froze and tensed up. “What?”
He gritted his teeth. “Oh crap!” he thought.
“You talked this over with my dad?!”Renesmee fumed. “Oh gross Jacob!” She shoved him away and jumped up.
“Wait! Where are you going?”
“Now I’m really not in the mood!” she snapped up and stormed into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her.
Jacob just threw his hands over his face and laid on his back letting out a big growl feeling. He leaped up and headed for the door to talk to her but when he turned the knob it was already locked. “Ness, come on. Open up!” he tapped his knuckle on the door.
No answer. He only heard sobs coming from behind the door. He suddenly felt horrible now. “Ness please, open the door,” he begged.
“Just leave me alone Jake!” She grabbed a small blanket off the end of the bed and wrapped herself in it.
Jacob kept pounding on the door. Annoyed by the noise, she opened the slider door in the rear of the bed room that stepped out onto a small deck. She stood out in the rain that had slowed to a drizzle now and let the cold drops fall down on her face. They blended with the tears that rolled down her cheeks.
Jacob growled with frustration. He started to take a step back to ram the door but re-thought the idea, figuring it might not be wise to wreck the place. Instead he stomped back out into the living room and then plopped down on one of the couches. He put his hands in his face and let out another groan. After giving the situation several long minutes of thought and calming himself down, she still hadn’t come out of the room.
Just then he got an idea. Still completely barefoot and with no shirt on, he went out the front door and walked around the back of the cabin. There was a long drop at the cliff when he got halfway around. He climbed one of the trees next to the house far enough up so that he could reach the roof then he found his way towards the back where he saw Renesmee standing on the deck. He got as close as he could to the edge and then jumped down. It startled her when his feet hit the floor, making her jump. When she turned to look at him, he could tell she was crying. His anger completely diminished and turned to guilt. She’d turned her back to him so he wouldn’t see but it was already too late.
He stepped over to her and touched her shoulder. “Ness,” he spoke softly. “Please don’t cry. I don’t want this.”
“Neither do I,” she whispered.
“This was supposed to be a special night and I totally ruined it. I’m so sorry,” he apologized.
She slowly turned back around but her eyes still looked down at the floor. He stepped closer to touch her face and wiped her tears. “Can we start over?” he hoped.
She lifted her eyes and nodded.
“Let’s go back inside, you’re getting soaked.” He said putting his arm around her shoulder and then walked towards the door.
“Wait,” he said just before scooping her up in his arms and carrying her though.
She gasped. “What are you doing?”
“Starting over right? I’m carrying you through the threshold.” He smiled.
She smiled back.
He brought her into the living room and set her down gently on in front of the fireplace. Then he threw more wood into the fire till it started crackling. He grabbed a dry blanket for her and tossed the wet one aside. Her body felt cool from standing outside. “You’re freezing.”
“I don’t feel it but you’re welcome to warm me up it you like,” she offered.
Jacob sat down and wrapped his arms around her. When she felt warm enough he started caressing her shoulder with his finger tips. She closed her eyes enjoying the soothing feeling of his warm hands on her skin.
“Better?” he asked
She nodded. “This feels nice. I love your touch.”
“Know what I like?”
“What’s that?”
“That I finally get to touch you.”
She chuckled. “It was a long wait for you huh?” Her head fell forward totally relaxed with her eyes closed.
“Five years. That’s a long time for a grown man to wait. I feel pretty privileged though, not having to wait eighteen years.”
She was smiling. “I don’t know how anyone could have the patience.”
He shrugged. “You just do. It’s not easy but, you just enjoy being with someone on other levels. It was really perfect getting to know my wife from the day she was brought into this life and watching over her every day since. I get to have a better relationship with you than most couples ever experience.”
She lifted her head and turned to look at him. “Really?”
“Yeah, for sure. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.”
She put her hand on his and smiled. “Thanks. Me too.”
He leaned in and she closed her eyes as he kissed her forehead. When they parted he could tell she had something on her mind still. She turned back to the fire and stared at it intensely. “You’re my best friend Jake. I love you more than anything.”
“I love you too Ness.”
“And I’m ready experience being your wife now.” She looked him in the eyes to see his reaction. His fingers paused on her shoulders. “But I want to experience it entirely. Just you…not this.” She picked up the tiny packet off the floor and held it up.
He looked in her in the eyes realizing it’s what he really wanted too. He grabbed the condom from her hand and threw it into the fire.
She smiled.
Jacob finally caved. He slid the straps off her shoulders while he kissed her passionately on the lips. Renesmee’s blanket fell to the floor exposing the rest of her body. Jacob never thought she could look more beautiful than she did right now.
He pulled her bare body against his. “I love you Ness,” he whispered in her ear.

Without any words she touched his face and projected every emotion and desire felt for him. Jacob never felt anything more perfect in his entire life.

***********************************************************************************************************
Renesmee was still on the floor when she woke in the morning. The room got cold overnight as the fire went out, but she found herself covered in a thick down blanket. Jacob lay next to her playing with her hair.
She rolled over and smiled at him. “Morning.”
“Good morning beautiful.” Jacob smiled back.
She stretched her body feeling a bit groggy still. “How long you been awake?”
“A while. I showered and had some breakfast but I just thought I’d let you sleep in.
“Oh really? What time is it?” she wondered.
“Almost eleven.”
“Oh my gosh… really?” She almost never slept in that late.
Jacob chuckled. “It’s no big deal. You clearly must’ve been worn out from last night.”
“Mmm, well that was pretty amazing.”
“I’ll say! Four times is pretty impressive for someone’s first time. I mean I have stamina but you still had me pretty winded.”
She reached over and slid her hand over his warm bronze chest, feeling his heart speed up as she chuckled. “Well, you wanna try for a new record?
He chuckled. “Wow, I think I’ve created a monster.”
“Does that mean no?” She pouted.
“Actually… I kinda have thing for monsters.” He grinned. “Especially pretty brunette ones.”
She rolled over on top of him pushing him onto his back and smiling. “What a coincidence! So do I.” Their bodies moved together as they both laughed. She was still undressed from the night before. With her naked body sprawled on top of his, Jacob instantly became excited. He wasted no time tearing off his the fresh pair of pant he just put on.
She moaned with every pulsing movement he made. Every emotion and sensation she felt suddenly shot through him with an impulse that heightened his passion beyond all normality. Each climax was even more intense than the first. After her fifth, he could barely get enough oxygen in his lungs to continue on.
“Hold on,” he gasped for air. “I..I don’t even think I have anything left in me.”
Renesmee realized he was exhausted and out of breath. “Are you ok?”
“I’m fine…I just need to catch my breath,” he panted.
“Sorry,” she said.
He chuckled. “Don’t apologize. Just think of all the money you’ll save me in gym fees.”
She giggled.
“I just can’t believe you can go on this long,” he huffed.
“Well, I suppose we will just have to work on your endurance training so you can keep up,” she teased.
He laughed. “Okay, but later.” His breathing started evening out. “I think I need to some lunch to recover first.”
“Okay, you go do that. I’m gonna shower.” Jacob kissed his wife just before she leaped up and strolled into the bathroom, happily humming to herself along the way. She turned the hot water knob allowing it to warm up. Then she gave herself a once-over in the mirror staring at her reflection. Suddenly, she felt something unusual on her feet. Then she felt it on her leg. It was something warm and moist. She looked down at the floor and shrieked when she saw droplets of blood pooling on the tile and the trail that streamed down her leg.
Jacob heard her and instantly ran into the bathroom. “What’s wrong!?” he peeked in making her gasp when he stuck his head through the door.
“I…I’m bleeding.” She self consciously covered herself with a towel.
His eyes widen when he saw the blood at her feet. “Oh my gosh! Ness, what happened? Are you hurt?” He gasped as he entered.
“No. I don’t think so.” She thought about it for a moment to see if anything did hurt that she hadn’t noticed. She only remembered extreme pleasure just moments ago.
“Well, uh…is it maybe your time of the month.” He suggested though it came out more as a question.
Renesmee knew the dates. “I didn’t think so. I shouldn’t have to worry about that for at least another week.”
Jacob cringed with a worried thought. He stepped in and touched her face. “Did I do something wrong? Are you in pain?”
“No, Jacob it doesn’t hurt anywhere. Everything feels just fine.”
“Are you sure?” he said giving her a very serious and concerned stare down.
“Yes, I’m sure. I feel just fine,” she assured him again. She didn’t want him to worry.
“Well maybe we should go back home so Carlisle can look you over.”
“No! I don’t wanna leave. This is our honeymoon! I wanna stay!”
“Ness! What if something’s wrong?”
“I’m okay! It’s probably just my period. It must be early.”
Jacob sighed. Then he touched her face, stroking her cheek. “You really sure?”
She nodded. “You should go. This is really weird.”
“Don’t feel weird, I’m your husband. You can share anything with me.” He said caressing her cheek. She nodded again still feeling a little embarrassed.
“You still feel like hunting today?”
“Yes absolutely!” Her face lit up.
He sighed again. “You sure are stubborn.”
“Hmm, well I wonder where I get it from.” She winked.
“Ok, I’ll be waiting for you when you’re done then. No rush, okay? And if anything else happens you must tell me at once.”
“I will,” she promised.
Jacob stepped out and closed the door. Then he went into the other room to make a phone call.
