later!I already understood what had startled me�察�and that I had overreacted。 

Oh。 Of course。 Edward wouldn't feel cold to me。 We were the same temperature now。 

I held my pose for an eighth of a second longer�察�adjusting to the scene before me。 

Edward was leaning across the operating table that had been my pyre�察�his hand reached out toward me�察�
his expression anxious。 

Edward's face was the most important thing�察�but my peripheral vision catalogued everything else�察�just in 



                                                                                                                  Page 230

case。 Some instinct to defend had been triggered�察�and I automatically searched for any sign of danger。 

My vampire family waited cautiously against the far wall by the door�察�Emmett and Jasper in the front。 
Like there was danger。 My nostrils flared�察�searching for the threat。 I could smell nothing out of place。 
That faint scent of something delicious!but marred by harsh chemicals!tickled my throat again�察�setting 
it to aching and burning。 

Alice was peeking around Jasper's elbow with a huge grin on her face�察�the light sparkled off her teeth�察�
another eight´color rainbow。 

That grin reassured me and then put the pieces together。 Jasper and Emmett were in the front to protect 
the others�察�as I had assumed。 What I hadn't grasped immediately was that / was the danger。 

All this was a sideline。 The greater part of my senses and my mind were still focused on Edward's face。 

I had never seen it before this second。 

How many times had I stared at Edward and marveled over his beauty�拭�How many hours!days�察�
weeks!of my life had I spent dreaming about what I then deemed to be perfection�拭�I thought I'd known 
his face better than my own。 I'd thought this was the one sure physical thing in my whole world�此�the 
flawlessness of Edward's face。 

I may as well have been blind。 

For the first time�察�with the dimming shadows and limiting weakness of humanity taken off my eyes�察�I saw 
his face。 I gasped and then struggled with my vocabulary�察�unable to find the right words。 I needed better 
words。 

At this point�察�the other part of my attention had ascertained that there was no danger here besides 
myself�察�and I automatically straightened out of my crouch�察�almost a whole second had passed since I'd 
been on the table。 

I was momentarily preoccupied by the way my body moved。 The instant I'd considered standing erect�察�I 
was already straight。 There was no brief fragment of time in which the action occurred�察�change was 
instantaneous�察�almost as if there was no movement at all。 

I continued to stare at Edward's face�察�motionless again。 

He moved slowly around the table!each step taking nearly half a second�察�each step flowing sinuously 
like river water weaving over smooth stones!his hand still outstretched。 

I watched the grace of his advance�察�absorbing it with my new eyes。 

;Bella�拭─�he asked in a low�察�calming tone�察�but the worry in his voice layered my name with tension。 

I could not answer immediately�察�lost as I was in the velvet folds of his voice。 It was the most perfect 
symphony�察�a symphony in one instrument�察�an instrument more profound than any created by man___ 

;Bella�察�love�拭�I'm sorry�察�I know it's disorienting。 But you're all right。 Everything is fine。; 

Everything�拭�My mind spun out�察�spiraling back to my last human hour。 Already�察�the memory seemed dim�察�



                                                                                                            Page 231

like I was watching through a thick�察�dark veil!because my human eyes had been half blind。 Everything 
had been so blurred。 

When he said everything was fine�察�did that include Renesmee�拭�Where was she�拭�With Rosalie�拭�I tried to 
remember her face!I knew that she had been beautiful!but it was irritating to try to see through the 
human memories。 Her face was shrouded in darkness�察�so poorly lit___ 

What about Jacob�拭�Was he fine�拭�Did my long´suffering best friend hate me now�拭�Had he gone back to 
Sam's pack�拭�Seth and Leah�察�too�拭�

Were the Cullens safe�察�or had my transformation ignited the war with the pack�拭�Did Edward's blanket 
assurance cover all of that�拭�Or was he just trying to calm me�拭�

And Charlie�拭�What would I tell him now�拭�He must have called while I was burning。 What had they told 
him�拭�What did he think had happened to me�拭�

As I deliberated for one small piece of a second over which question to ask first�察�Edward reached out 
tentatively and stroked his fingertips across my cheek。 Smooth as satin�察�soft as a feather�察�and now exactly 
matched to the temperature of my skin。 

His touch seemed to sweep beneath the surface of my skin�察�right through the bones of my face。 The 
feeling was tingly�察�electric!it jolted through my bones�察�down my spine�察�and trembled in my stomach。 

Wait��I thought as the trembling blossomed into a warmth�察�a yearning。 Wasn't I supposed to lose this�拭�
Wasn't giving up this feeling a part of the bargain�拭�

I was a newborn vampire。 The dry�察�scorching ache in my throat gave proof to that。 And I knew what 
being a newborn entailed。 Human emotions and longings would come back to me later in some form�察�but 
I'd accepted that I would not feel them in the beginning。 Only thirst。 That was the deal�察�the price。 I'd 
agreed to pay it。 

But as Edward's hand curled to the shape of my face like satin´covered steel�察�desire raced through my 
dried´out veins�察�singing from my scalp to my toes。 

He arched one perfect eyebrow�察�waiting for me to speak。 

I threw my arms around him。 

Again�察�it was like there was no movement。 One moment I stood straight and still as a statue�察�in the same 
instant�察�he was in my arms。 

Warm!or at least�察�that was my perception。 With the sweet�察�delicious scent that I'd never been able to 
really take in with my dull human senses�察�but that was one hundred percent Edward。 I pressed my face 
into his smooth chest。 

And then he shifted his weight uncomfortably。 Leaned away from my embrace。 I stared up at his face�察�
confused and frightened by the rejection。 

;Urn。。。 carefully�察�Bella。 Ow。; 

I yanked my arms away�察�folding them behind my back as soon as I understood。 



                                                                                                            Page 232

I was too strong。 

;Oops�察─�I mouthed。 

He smiled the kind of smile that would have stopped my heart if it were still beating。 

;Don't panic�察�love�察─�he said�察�lifting his hand to touch my lips�察�parted in horror。 ;You're just a bit stronger 
than I am for the moment。; 

My eyebrows pushed together。 I'd known this�察�too�察�but it felt more surreal than any other part of this 
ultimately surreal moment。 I was stronger than Edward。 I'd made him say ow。 

His hand stroked my cheek again�察�and I all but forgot my distress as another wave of desire rippled 
through my motionless body。 

These emotions were so much stronger than I was used to that it was hard to stick to one train of 
thought despite the extra room in my head。 Each new sensation overwhelmed me。 I remembered Edward 
saying once!his voice in my head a weak shadow compared to the crystal�察�musical clarity I was hearing 
now!that his kind�察�our kind�察�were easily distracted。 I could see why。 

I made a concerted effort to focus。 There was something I needed to say。 The most important thing。 

Very carefully�察�so carefully that the movement was actually discernible�察�I brought my right arm out from 
behind my back and raised my hand to touch his cheek。 I refused to let myself be sidetracked by the 
pearly color of my hand or by the smooth silk of his skin or by the charge that zinged in my fingertips。 

I stared into his eyes and heard my own voice for the first time。 

;I love you�察─�I said�察�but it sounded like singing。 My voice rang and shimmered like a bell。 

His answering smile dazzled me more than it ever had when I was human�察�I could really see it now。 

;As I love you�察─�he told me。 

He took my face between his hands and leaned his face to mine!slow enough to remind me to be 
careful。 He 

kissed me�察�soft as a whisper at first�察�and then suddenly stronger�察�fiercer。 I tried to remember to be gentle 
with him�察�but it was hard work to remember anything in the onslaught of sensation�察�hard to hold on to any 
coherent thoughts。 

It was like he'd never kissed me!like this was our first kiss。 And�察�in truth�察�he'd never kissed me this 
way before。 

It almost made me feel guilty。 Surely I was in breach of the contract。 I couldn't be allowed to have this�察�
too。 

Though I didn't need oxygen�察�my breathing sped�察�raced as fast as it had when I was burning。 This was a 
different kind of fire。 




                                                                                                                Page 233

Someone cleared his throat。 Emmett。 I recognized the deep sound at once�察�joking and annoyed at the 
same time。 

I'd forgotten we weren't alone。 And then I realized that the way I was curved around Edward now was 
not exactly polite for company。 

Embarrassed�察�I half´stepped away in another instantaneous movement。 

Edward chuckled and stepped with me�察�keeping his arms tight around my waist。 His face was glowing 
!like a white flame burned from behind his diamond skin。 

I took an unnecessary breath to settle myself。 

How different this kissing was� �I read his expression as I compared the indistinct human memories to this 
clear�察�intense feeling。 He looked。。。 a little smug。 

;You've been holding out on me�察─�I accused in my singing voice�察�my eyes narrowing a tiny bit。 

He laughed�察�radiant with relief that it was all over!the fear�察�the pain�察�the uncertainties�察�the waiting�察�all of 
it behind us now。 ;It was sort of necessary at the time�察─�he reminded me。 ;Now it's your turn to not break 
me。; He laughed again。 

I frowned as I considered that�察�and then Edward was not the only one laughing。 

Carlisle stepped around Emmett and walked toward me swiftly�察�his eyes were only slightly wary�察�but 
Jasper shadowed his footsteps。 I'd never seen Carlisle's face before either�察�not really。 I had an odd urge 
to blink!like I was staring at the sun。 

;How do you feel�察�Bella�拭─�Carlisle asked。 

I considered that for a sixty´fourth of a second。 

;Overwhelmed。 There's so much。 。。。; I trailed off�察�listening to the bell´tone of my voice again。 

;Yes�察�it can be quite confusing。; 

I nodded one fast�察�jerky bob。 ;But I feel like me。 Sort of。 I didn't expect that。; 

Edward's arms squeezed lightly around my waist。 ;I told you so�察─�he whispered。 

;You are quite controlled�察─�Carlisle mused。 ;More so than / expected�察�even with the time you had to 
prepare yourself mentally for this。; 

I thought about the wild mood swings�察�the difficulty concentrating�察�and whispered�察 �I'm n
