as a ruler to a blunt edge at her chin�察�parted evenly down the center。 

She was a stranger to me。 I was absolutely certain I'd never seen her before�察�even as a human。 None of 
the faces in my muddy memory were the same as this one。 But I knew her at once from her dark golden 
eyes。 

Irina had decided to come after all。 

For one moment I stared at her�察�and she stared back。 I wondered if she would guess immediately who I 
was as well。 I half´raised my hand�察�about to wave�察�but her lip twisted the tiniest bit�察�making her face 
suddenly hostile。 

I heard Renesmee's cry of victory from the forest�察�heard Jacob's echoing howl�察�and saw Irina's face jerk 
reflexively to the sound when it echoed to her a few seconds later。 Her gaze cut slightly to the right�察�and I 
knew what she was seeing。 An enormous russet werewolf�察�perhaps the very one who had killed her 
Laurent。 How long had she been watching us�拭�Long enough to see our affectionate exchange before�察�I 
was sure。 

Her face spasmed in pain。 

Instinctually�察�I opened my hands in front of me in an apologetic gesture。 She turned back to me�察�and her 
lip curled back over her teeth。 Her jaw unlocked as she growled。 

When the faint sound reached me�察�she had already turned and disappeared into the forest。 

;Crap� ─�I groaned。 

I sprinted into the forest after Renesmee and Jacob�察�unwilling to have them out of my sight。 I didn't know 
which direction Irina had taken�察�or exactly how furious she was right now。 Vengeance was a common 
obsession for vampires�察�one that was not easy to suppress。 

Running at full speed�察�it only took me two seconds to reach them。 

;Mine is bigger�察─�I heard Renesmee insist as I burst through the thick thornbushes to the small open 
space where they stood。 

Jacob's ears flattened as he took in my expression�察�he crouched forward�察�baring his teeth!hismuzzle 
was streaked with blood from his kill。 His eyes raked the forest。 I could hear the growl building in his 
throat。 

Renesmee was every bit as alert as Jacob。 Abandoning the dead stag at her feet�察�she leaped into my 
waiting arms�察�pressing her curious hands against my cheeks。

;I'm overreacting�察─�I assured them quickly。 ;It's okay�察�I think。 Hold on。; 

I pulled out my cell phone and hit the speed dial。 Edward answered on the first ring。 Jacob and 
Renesmee listened intently to my side as I filled Edward in。 

;Come�察�bring Carlisle�察─�I trilled so fast I wondered if Jacob could keep up。 ;I saw Irina�察�and she saw me�察�
but then 

she saw Jacob and she got mad and ran away�察�I think。 She hasn't shown up here!yet�察�anyway!but 
she looked pretty upset so maybe she will。 If she doesn't�察�you and Carlisle have to go after her and talk 
to her。 I feel so bad。; 

Jacob rumbled。 

;We'll be there in half a minute�察─�Edward assured me�察�and I could hear the whoosh of the wind his 
running made。 

We darted back to the long meadow and then waited silently as Jacob and I listened carefully for the 
sound of an approach we did not recognize。 

When the sound came�察�though�察�it was very familiar。 And then Edward was at my side�察�Carlisle a few 
seconds behind。 I was surprised to hear the heavy pad of big paws following behind Carlisle。 I supposed 
I shouldn't have been shocked。 With Renesmee in even a hint of danger�察�of course Jacob would call in 
reinforcements。 

;She was up on that ridge�察─�I told them at once�察�pointing out the spot。 If Irina was fleeing�察�she already 
had quite a head start。 Would she stop and listen to Carlisle�拭�Her expression before made me think not。 
;Maybe you should call Emmett and Jasper and have them come with you。 She looked。。。 really upset。 
She growled at me。; 

;What�拭─�Edward said angrily。 

Carlisle put a hand on his arm。 ;She's grieving。 HI go after her。; 

Tm coming with you�察─�Edward insisted。 

They exchanged a long glance!perhaps Carlisle was measuring Edward's irritation with Irina against his 
helpfulness as a mind reader。 Finally�察�Carlisle nodded�察�and they took off to find the trail without calling for 
Jasper or Emmett。 

Jacob huffed impatiently and poked my back with his nose。 He must want Renesmee back at the safety 
of the house�察�just in case。 I agreed with him on that�察�and we hurried home with Seth and Leah running at 
our flanks。 

Renesmee was complacent in my arms�察�one hand still resting on my face。 Since the hunting trip had been 
aborted�察�she would just have to make do with donated blood。 Her thoughts were a little smug。 

28。 THE FUTURE 

Carlisle and Edward had not been able to catch up with Irina before her trail disappeared into the sound。 
They'd swum to the other bank to see if her trail had picked up in a straight line�察�but there was no trace of 



                                                                                                                Page 316

her for miles in either direction on the eastern shore。 

It was all my fault。 She had come�察�as Alice had seen�察�to make peace with the Cullens�察�only to be 
angered by my camaraderie with Jacob。 I wished I'd noticed her earlier�察�before Jacob had phased。 I 
wished we'd gone hunting somewhere else。 

There wasn't much to be done。 Carlisle had called Tanya with the disappointing news。 Tanya and Kate 
hadn't seen Irina since they'd decided to come to my wedding�察�and they were distraught that Irina had 
come so close and yet not returned home�察�it wasn't easy for them to lose their sister�察�however temporary 
the separation might be。 I wondered if this brought back hard memories of losing their mother so many 
centuries ago。 

Alice was able to catch a few glimpses of Irina's immediate future�察�nothing too concrete。 She wasn't 
going back to Denali�察�as far as Alice could tell。 The picture was hazy。 All Alice could see was that Irina 
was visibly upset�察�she wandered in the snow´swathed wilderness!to the north�拭�To the east�拭�with a 
devastated expression。 She made no decisions for a new course beyond her directionless grieving。 

Days passed and�察�though of course I forgot nothing�察�Irina and her pain moved to the back of my mind。 
There were more important things to think of now。 I would leave for Italy in just a few days。 When I got 
back�察�we'd all be off to South America。 

Every detail had been gone over a hundred times already。 We would start with the Ticunas�察�tracing their 
legends as well as we could at the source。 Now that it was accepted that Jacob would come with us�察�he 
figured prominently in the plans!it was unlikely that the people who believed in vampires would speak 
to any of us about their stories。 If we dead´ended with the Ticunas�察�there were many closely related 
tribes in the area to research。 Carlisle had some old 

friends in the Amazon�察�if we could find them�察�they might have information for us�察�too。 Or at least a 
suggestion as to where else we might go for answers。 It was unlikely that the three Amazon vampires had 
anything to do with the legends of vampire hybrids themselves�察�as they were all female。 There was no 
way to know how long our search would take。 

I hadn't told Charlie about the longer trip yet�察�and I stewed about what to say to him while Edward and 
Carlisle's discussion went on。 How to break the news to him just right�拭�

I stared at Renesmee while I debated internally。 She was curled up on the sofa now�察�her breathing slow 
with heavy sleep�察�her tangled curls splayed wildly around her face。Usually�察�Edward and I took her back 
to our cottage to put her to bed�察�but tonight we lingered with the family�察�he and Carlisle deep in their 
planning session。 

Meanwhile�察�Emmett and Jasper were more excited about planning the hunting possibilities。 The Amazon 
offered a change from our normal quarry。 Jaguars and panthers�察�for example。 Emmett had a whim to 
wrestle with an anaconda。 Esme and Rosalie were planning what they would pack。 Jacob was off with 
Sam's pack�察�setting things up for his own absence。 

Alice moved slowly!for her!around the big room�察�unnecessarily tidying the already immaculate space�察�
straightening Esme's perfectly hung garlands。 She was re´centering Esme's vases on the console at the 
moment。 I could see from the way her face fluctuated!aware�察�then blank�察�then aware again!that she 
was searching the future。 I assumed she was trying to see through the blind spots that Jacob and 
Renesmee made in her visions as to what was waiting for us in South America until Jasper said�察 �Let it 
go�察�Alice�察�she's not our concern�察─�and a cloud of serenity stole silently and invisibly through the room。 



                                                                                                             Page 317

Alice must have been worrying about Irina again。 

She stuck her tongue out at Jasper and then lifted one crystal vase that was filled with white and red 
roses and turned toward the kitchen。 There was just the barest hint of wilt to one of the white flowers�察�
but Alice seemed intent on utter perfection as a distraction to her lack of vision tonight。 

Staring at Renesmee again�察�I didn't see it when the vase slipped from Alice's fingers。 I only heard the 
whoosh of the air whistling past the crystal�察�and my eyes flickered up in time to see the vase shatter into 
ten thousand diamond shards against the edge of the kitchen's marble floor。 

We were perfectly still as the fragmented crystal bounced and skittered in every direction with an 
unmusical tinkling�察�all eyes on Alice's back。 

My first illogical thought was that Alice was playing some joke on us。 Because there was no way that 
Alice could have dropped the vase by accident I could have darted across the room to catch the vase in 
plenty of time myself�察�if I hadn't assumed she would get it。 And how would it fall through her fingers in the 
first place�拭�Her perfectly sure fingers。。。 

I had never seen a vampire drop anything by accident。 Ever。 

And then Alice was facing us�察�twisting in a move so fast it didn't exist。 

Her eyes were halfway here and halfway locked on the future�察�wide�察�staring�察�filling her thin face till they 
seemed to overflow it。 Looking into her eyes was like looking out of a grave from the inside�察�I was buried 
in the terror and 

despair and agony of her gaze。 

I heard Edward gasp�察�it was a broken�察�half´choked sound。 

;What�拭�Jasper growled�察�leaping to her side in a blurred rush of movement�察�crushing the broken crystal 
under his feet。 He grabbed her shoulders and shook her sharply。 She seemed to rattle silently in his 
hands。 ;What Alice�拭─�

Emmett moved into my peripheral vision�察�his teeth bared while his eyes darted toward the window�察�
anticipating an attack。 

There was only silence from Esme�察�Carlisle�察�and Rose�察�who were frozen just as I was。 

Jasper shook Alice again。 ;What is it�拭─�

;They're coming for us�察─�Alice and Edward whispered to
