cousins�拭─�
Both Kate and Tanya scowled at him。
;Come now�察�Eleazar。 Surely you can see the resemblance。;
It was Carmen who responded to Edward's words。 She stepped around Eleazar�察�ignoring his
half´articulated warning�察�and walked carefully to stand right in front of me。 She leaned down slightly�察�
looking carefully into Renesmee's face。
;You seem to have your mother's eyes�察─�she said in a low�察�calm voice�察 �but your father's face。; And then�察�
as if she could not help herself�察�she smiled at Renesmee。
Renesmee's answering smile was dazzling。 She touched my face without looking away from Carmen。
She imagined touching Carmen's face�察�wondering if that was okay。
;Do you mind if Renesmee tells you about it herself�拭─�I asked Carmen。 I was still too stressed to speak
above a whisper。 ;She has a gift for explaining things。;
Carmen was still smiling at Renesmee。 ;Do you speak�察�little one�拭─�
;Yes�察─�Renesmee answered in her trilling high soprano。 All of Tanya's family flinched at the sound of her
voice except for Carmen。 ;But I can show you more than I can tell you。;
She placed her little dimpled hand on Carmen's cheek。
Carmen stiffened like an electric shock had run through her。 Eleazar was at her side in an instant�察�his
hands on her shoulders as if to yank her away。
;Wait�察─�Carmen said breathlessly�察�her unblinking eyes locked on Renesmee's。

Renesmee ;showed; Carmen her explanation for a long time。 Edward's face was intent as he watched
with Carmen�察�and I wished so much that I could hear what he heard�察�too。 Jacob shifted his weight
impatiently behind me�察�and I knew he was wishing the same。
;What's Nessie showing her�拭─�he grumbled under his breath。
;Everything�察─�Edward murmured。
Another minute passed�察�and Renesmee dropped her hand from Carmen's face。 She smiled winningly at
the stunned vampire。
;She really is your daughter�察�isn't she�拭─�Carmen breathed�察�switching her wide topaz eyes to Edward's
face。 ;Such a vivid gift� �It could only have come from a very gifted father。;
;Do you believe what she showed you�拭─�Edward asked�察�his expression intense。
;Without a doubt�察─�Carmen said simply。
Eleazar's face was rigid with distress。 ;Carmen� ─�
Carmen took his hands into her own and squeezed them。 ;Impossible as it seems�察�Edward has told you
nothing but truth。 Let the child show you。;
Carmen nudged Eleazar closer to me and then nodded at Renesmee。 ;Show him�察�mi querida;
Renesmee grinned�察�clearly delighted with Carmen's acceptance�察�and touched Eleazar lightly on the
forehead。
;Ay caray� �hespit�察�and jerked away from her。
;What did she do to you�拭─�Tanya demanded�察�coming closer warily。 Kate crept forward�察�too。
;She's just trying to show you her side of the story�察─�Carmen told him in a soothing voice。
Renesmee frowned impatiently。 ;Watch�察�please�察─�she commanded Eleazar。 She stretched her hand out to
him and then left a few inches between her fingers and his face�察�waiting。
Eleazar eyed her suspiciously and then glanced at Carmen for help。 She nodded encouragingly。 Eleazar
took a deep breath and then leaned closer until his forehead touched her hand again。
He shuddered when it began but held still this time�察�his eyes closed in concentration。
;Ahh�察─�he sighed when his eyes reopened a few minutes later。 ;I see。;
Renesmee smiled at him。 He hesitated�察�then smiled a slightly unwilling smile in response。
;Eleazar�拭─�Tanya asked。
;It's all true�察�Tanya。 This is no immortal child。 She's half´human。 Come。 See for yourself。;

In silence�察�Tanya took her turn standing warily before me�察�and then Kate�察�both showing shock as that
first image hit them with Renesmee's touch。 But then�察�just like Carmen and Eleazar�察�they seemed
completely won over as soon as it was done。
I shot a glance at Edward's smooth face�察�wondering if it could really be so easy。 His golden eyes were
clear�察�unshadowed。 There was no deception in this�察�then。
;Thank you for listening�察─�he said quietly。
;But there is the grave danger you warned us of�察─�Tanya said。 ;Not directly from this child�察�I see�察�but
surely from the Volturi�察�then。 How did they find out about her�拭�When are they coming�拭─�
I was not surprised at her quick understanding。 After all�察�what could possibly be a threat to a family as
strong as mine�拭�Only the Volturi。
;When Bella saw Irina that day in the mountains�察─�Edward explained�察 �she had Renesmee with her。;
Kate hissed�察�her eyes narrowing to slits�察 �irina did this�拭�To you�拭�To Carlisle�拭�Irina�拭─�
;No�察─�Tanya whispered。 ;Someone else 。。。;
;Alice saw her go to them�察─�Edward said。 I wondered if the others noticed the way he winced just
slightly when he spoke Alice's name。
;How could she do this thing�拭─�Eleazar asked of no one。
'Imagine if you had seen Renesmee only from a distance。 If you had not waited for our explanation。;
Tanya's eyes tightened。 ;No matter what she thought。。。 You are our family。;
;There's nothing we can do about Irina's choice now。 It's too late。 Alice gave us a month。;
Both Tanya's and Eleazar's heads cocked to one side。 Kate's brow furrowed。
;So long�拭─�Eleazar asked。
;They are all coming。 That must take some preparation。;
Eleazar gasped。 ;The entire guard�拭─�
;Not just the guard�察─�Edward said�察�his jaw straining tight。 ;Aro�察�Caius�察�Marcus。 Even the wives。;
Shock glazed over all their eyes。
;Impossible�察─�Eleazar said blankly。
;I would have said the same two days ago�察─�Edward said。
Eleazar scowled�察�and when he spoke it was nearly a growl。 ;But that doesn't make any sense。 Why
would they put themselves and the wives in danger�拭─�

;It doesn't make sense from that angle。 Alice said there was more to this than just punishment for what
they think we've done。 She thought you could help us。;
;More than punishment�拭�But what else is there�拭─�Eleazar started pacing�察�stalking toward the door and
back again as if he were alone here�察�his eyebrows furrowed as he stared at the floor。
;Where are the others�察�Edward�拭�Carlisle and Alice and the rest�拭─�Tanya asked。
Edward's hesitation was almost unnoticeable。 He answered only part of her question。 ;Looking for
friends who might help us。;
Tanya leaned toward him�察�holding her hands out in front of her。 ;Edward�察�no matter how many friends
you gather�察�we can't help you win。 We can only die with you。 You must know that。 Of course�察�perhaps
the four of us deserve that after what Irina has done now�察�after how we've failed you in the past!for her
sake that time as well。;
Edward shook his head quickly。 ;We're not asking you to fight and die with us�察�Tanya。 You know
Carlisle would never ask for that。;
;Then what�察�Edward�拭─�
;We're just looking for witnesses。 If we can make them pause�察�just for a moment。 If they would let us
explain 。。。; He touched Renesmee's cheek�察�she grabbed his hand and held it pressed against her skin。 ;It's
difficult to doubt our story when you see it for yourself。;
Tanya nodded slowly。 ;Do you think her past will matter to them so much�拭─�
;Only as it foreshadows her future。 The point of the restriction was to protect us from exposure�察�from the
excesses of children who could not be tamed。;
;I'm not dangerous at all�察─�Renesmee interjected。 I listened to her high�察�clear voice with new ears�察�
imagining how she sounded to the others。 ;I never hurt Grandpa or Sue or Billy。 I love humans。 And
wolf´people like my Jacob。; She dropped Edward's hand to reach back and pat Jacob's arm。
Tanya and Kate exchanged a quick glance。
;If Irina had not come so soon�察─�Edward mused�察 �we could have avoided all of this。 Renesmee grows at
an unprecedented rate。 By the time the month is past�察�shell have gained another half year of
development。;
;Well�察�that is something we can certainly witness�察─�Carmen said in a decided tone。 ;We'll be able to
promise that we've seen her mature ourselves。 How could the Volturi ignore such evidence�拭─�
Eleazar mumbled�察 �How�察�indeed�拭─�but he did not look up�察�and he continued pacing as if he were paying
no attention at all。
;Yes�察�we can witness for you�察─�Tanya said。 ;Certainly that much。 We will consider what more we might
do。;
;Tanya�察─�Edward protested�察�hearing more in her thoughts than there was in her words�察 �we don't expect
you to fight with us。;

;If the Volturi won't pause to listen to our witness�察�we cannot simply stand by�察─�Tanya insisted。 ;Of
course�察�I should only speak for myself。;
Kate snorted。 ;Do you really doubt me so much�察�sister�拭─�
Tanya smiled widely at her。 ;It is a suicide mission�察�after all。;
Kate flashed a grin back and then shrugged nonchalantly。 ;I'm in。;
;I�察�too�察�will do what I can to protect the child�察─�Carmen agreed。 Then�察�as if she couldn't resist�察�she held
her arms out toward Renesmee。 ;May I hold you�察�bebe linda�拭─�
Renesmee reached eagerly toward Carmen�察�delighted with her new friend。 Carmen hugged her close�察�
murmuring to her in Spanish。
It was like it had been with Charlie�察�and before that with all the Cullens。 Renesmee was irresistible。 What
was it about her that drew everyone to her�察�that made them willing even to pledge their lives in her
defense�拭�
For a moment I thought that maybe what we were attempting might be possible。 Maybe Renesmee
could do the impossible and win over our enemies as she had our friends。
And then I remembered that Alice had left us�察�and my hope vanished as quickly as it had appeared。
31。 TALENTED
;What is the werewolves' part in this�拭─�Tanya asked then�察�eyeing Jacob。
Jacob spoke before Edward could answer。 ;If the Volturi won't stop to listen about Nessie�察�I mean
Renesmee�察─�he corrected himself�察�remembering that Tanya would not understand his stupid nickname�察�
;we will stop them。;
;Very brave�察�child�察�but that would be impossible for more experienced fighters than you are。;
;You don't know what we can do。;
Tanya shrugged。 ;It is your own life�察�certainly�察�to spend as you choose。;
Jacob's eyes flickered to Renesmee!still in Carmen's arms with Kate hovering over them!and it was
easy to read the longing in them。
;She is special�察�that little one�察─�Tanya mused。 ;Hard to resist。;
;A very talented family�察─�Eleazar murmured as he paced。 His tempo was increasing�察�he flashed from the
door to Carmen and back again every second。 ;A mind reader for a father�察�a shield for a mot
