Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn, M.S.Rishikesh [good non fiction books to read .txt] 📗

mind. It was proof, though, that things didn't have to be
this way. That vampires and werewolves could get along just fine, thank you very much,
if they were of a mind to.

Not everybody liked this idea.

"Ah," Seth said, his voice cracking up an octave. "Er, Leah's home."

"Oh! Bye!"

The phone went dead. I left it on the seat and prepared myself mentally to go inside the
house, where Charlie would be waiting.

My poor dad had so much to deal with right now. Jacob-the-runaway was just one of the
straws on his overburdened back. He was almost as worried about me, his barely-a-
legal-adult daughter who was about to become a Mrs. in just a few

days' time.

I walked slowly through the light rain, remembering the night we'd told him. . . .

As the sound of Charlie's cruiser announced his return, the ring suddenly weighed a
hundred pounds on my finger. I wanted to shove my left hand in a pocket, or maybe sit
on it, but Edward's cool, firm grasp kept it front and center.

"Stop fidgeting, Bella. Please try to remember that you're not confessing to a murder
here."

"Easy for you to say."

I listened to the ominous sound of my father's boots clomping up the sidewalk. The key
rattled in the already open door. The sound reminded me of that part of the horror movie
when the victim realizes she's forgotten to lock her deadbolt.


"Calm down, Bella," Edward whispered, listening to the acceleration of my heart.

The door slammed against the wall, and I flinched like I'd been Tasered.

"Hey, Charlie," Edward called, entirely relaxed.

"No!" I protested under my breath.

"What?" Edward whispered back.

"Wait till he hangs his gun up!"

Edward chuckled and ran his free hand through his tousled bronze hair.
Charlie came around the corner, still in his uniform, still armed, and tried not to make a
face when he spied us sitting together on the loveseat. Lately, he'd been putting forth a
lot of effort to like Edward more. Of course, this revelation was sure to end that effort
immediately.
