Bella, who was sitting in the car, was tormented by the guilt in her heart at this time. She sat on the seat with her forehead in pain and said nothing. She cursed herself over and over again for how she could say such hurtful words.

"Bella, we have to do this, otherwise you think Nora will let you out?" Edward took over the steering wheel from Bella's position, and his melancholy eyes showed a fierce and fierce light at this time.

They were now being hunted by James, and there was no time to lose.With Edward stomping on the gas and heading towards Cullen's house at 130mph, they must band together to come up with a plan to get out of this mess.

The Karen family never expected that three vampires would come to Fox, and two of them would actually want to do something to the humans in their territory.Among the three, James and Victoria developed an undue curiosity about Bella, which aroused their hunting ambitions.

Not every vampire can live like a perfect human, they are more like a wild beast, but this bestiality is perfectly covered under the human skin.

It's not difficult to defeat a vampire, and with the Karen family's number of people, they can win an overwhelming victory.But the key is to cut the weeds and get rid of the roots. It is said that "you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about it".It takes a lot of effort to kill them.

Edward felt regretful at this time, he shouldn't take Bella to play baseball with a fluke mentality.If James can't get rid of tonight, Bella won't be able to sleep peacefully every night after that.

Edward, who returned to Cullen's house, was still tense, and they completed the final plan.They decided to split into three groups, one way let Alice hide with Bella; the second way let some members walk around with Bella's clothes, making it difficult for James to perceive Bella; Mate Victoria.

Their plan sounded reasonable and efficient, but they still underestimated the strength of those two.

How could James smell the wrong prey when he was as good at tracking as the Volturi's Demetrius?The Cullens naively thought that by breaking Bella from Charlie and Nora they would get the two of them safe, but it never occurred to them that it was their unnecessary actions that led James to discover a more interesting prey.

James has always been a qualified hunter, and he carried the gene of psychopath when he was human.From the first moment Bella stepped into the house, James has followed them everywhere.He quietly squatted on a tree not far from Bella's house and watched. This ingenious distance would not be felt by Edward, but he could use his extremely keen perception to monitor the movement of the prey.

He sensed the sound of two people arguing in the house, and in a short while his little prey got into the car angrily from the door.Just as he was about to catch up, he saw a young girl and a slightly older man through the window.James was a little puzzled, and he approached the house cautiously, but he only felt the breath of one person.

interesting.

The corners of James' mouth curled, thinking he might be able to have dessert before enjoying his main meal.Compared with a sweet human being protected by full armor, this human being that he can't even perceive has aroused his interest. It is a good choice to warm up before starting a fight.

Like a hopeless gambler, James kept increasing his chips on the gaming table. He couldn't wait to see the expressions on the faces of the Cullen family and that human when they got the bad news. It would be a double pleasure for him.

James sneaked closer to the house. He wanted to rush in and torture the two people in the house before eating them, but he remembered what Laurent had warned him.

"We've been here for too long, and we've attracted a lot of unnecessary attention. What's more, this is the territory of the Karen family. I don't want to create trouble with the Karen family or the Volturi." Laurent left the team He was given an ultimatum before.

"That bastard." James cursed Laurent bitterly.Laurent was unwilling to participate in the mission of sniping Bella, because he had no interest in this kind of massacre, and most importantly, he didn't want to face the powerful Karen family.

James is indeed a perverted lunatic, he is not a fool, of course he knows that Laurent is right, and the last word of persuasion is the best of humanity.But it was the thrill of walking on the tightrope that made James' blood spurt, and he licked his dry lips, staring intently at the house.

He patiently stayed where he was for several hours before sneaking into the house until the two people in the house separated from the living room.Like a snake stalking in the dark, he found Nora's room with unerring precision.He gently opened the door, only a small dim lamp was lit in the room, dimly lit with warm colors.The bed was slightly arched, and it was obvious that there was a person sleeping in it.

James lifted the quilt, and there were only a few pillows inside.Then he noticed that the ledge window was open, and looking down, his new prey was already standing downstairs looking at him defiantly.

Nora saw James notice that she rushed into the bushes next to the house, but she couldn't match the vampire's speed.Unsurprisingly, she was patted on the ground by James chasing from behind, covering her injured waist and stuffing the mobile phone in her cuff into her trouser pocket.

"Sweetheart, you found me." James didn't seem to notice Nora's small movements. He was not in a hurry to deal with Nora, but instead he looked at the injured Nora with interest as she concealed the pain in her body.

He walked towards Nora and raised her chin to look at Nora's face. He asked Nora gently, "How did you know that I was coming to catch you? How did you hide your breath?"

"It seems that you are Bella's trouble." Nora met James' crazy eyes without fear.

"Ah, you reminded me. I have to eat you quickly before I can find your friends." James smiled maliciously, "She was protected by the Cullen family, so she left you two and ran away .”

"You're trying to destroy my psychological defense." Nora listened calmly to James' words, "Excellent negotiation skills, I really underestimated you."

"Yes, you underestimated me...but I seem to overestimate you." James failed to achieve the goal of mentally torturing Nora and began to get a little irritable. He found that this fearless human being had only empty courage, so he raised his hand. Nora's neck threw her toward a nearby tree.

Nora took it hard, waiting desperately for the voice in her head to give her instructions.It was because of the voice in her mind that she escaped from the house, but instead of following the voice in her mind and driving away, she sent a message to Carlisle for help and waited for rescue.

"The only Karen family that can compete with me has left, and now you are alone and helpless. For the sake of your pretty face, I will quickly end your suffering. Just wait, I will soon put the betrayal on you Bring your friend to you." James smiled what he thought was pity, and he lifted Nora's neck just as he was about to thrust his fangs into his body when he was restrained.

His limbs were bound, and there was a look of confusion and anger on his face.

"The last person who tried to kill me has been buried in the soil." Nora lifted the hair covering James' face with her fingers, and the hair that hadn't been combed had already tangled into a ball.

"Look at you, you are full of sins, it's so sad." Nora sighed softly, she stood up and looked at James with a smile. "Let's make a bet, see if you will break free from my shackles first or the Karen's will arrive first."

James felt how strong the vines imprisoned him were, and his eyes showed appreciation. He could feel that the girl who looked like an angel in front of him was actually the same as him.James knew that Nora could tear herself to pieces in minutes, but she wanted to bet on herself.

"You are too confident in your own strength!" James bared his fangs towards Nora. He roared and wanted to tear Nora into pieces, but the restraint of the vines prevented him from moving.

"The Karen family has been away for at least three hours, and they can't come back no matter how quickly. I advise you to kill me quickly, or your end will not be so good when I break free."

"I'm looking forward to it." Nora's cell phone rang, and she glanced at James, who was about to take the opportunity to slip away, with a helpless look of condemnation.Several vines entangled James' waist and neck, and now James was unable to move.

Nora glanced at the contents of the phone, and Carlisle said that they were already on their way and would be there in twenty minutes.

"Your time is running out." Nora put away her phone and quietly watched James struggle to break free.James seemed to be tired, he gave up struggling and said with a smirk that Victoria would come to save him.

Nora was startled when she heard this. She realized that James might have an accomplice, but this accomplice has not come for a long time, probably to chase the Karen family.

"What the hell are you?" The two were silent for a long time, James seemed to be a little tired and stopped struggling, and now he was staring at Nora angrily.

"Elf." Nora said flatly.

"Ha, Elf. Why don't you plant flowers and grass to join the affairs of humans and vampires?" James was a little surprised by this answer, but he could only sneer now.

"Then you'd better be careful with the Volturi." James lowered his voice nervously, "If you're found out about being involved in Cullen's mess, you'll probably be taken back to the Volturi." He laughed out loud. stand up.

"Volturi?" Nora frowned at James, who was in a frenzy.

"You don't know? The Volturi are the royal family of vampires. No one dares to break the law they made, otherwise they will be torn to pieces. Let me tell you, the Karen family has suffered a catastrophe. A vampire revealed to humans that his Identity itself violates the laws of the Volturi, let alone interacting with humans." James looked at Nora triumphantly, his eyes gleaming with pleasure.

"That's interesting." Nora looked at James thoughtfully, and she looked at the man in front of her with some annoyance.Suddenly, she felt a large number of creatures approaching. Considering the number, Nora could be sure that it was the Karen family.

James had already noticed the aura of Cullen's family, so he began to struggle again.He originally wanted Nora to kill him as soon as possible, fake his own death, and then take the opportunity to escape. He thought that Nora, who was an elf, might not know that fire was the only thing that could restrain vampires.

But now that the Karen's family is here, they should be most aware of their weaknesses, and it will really be a dead end at that time.

The busy Karen's family came, and they looked at James who was tied up and couldn't figure out what was going on.Nora greeted them wearily, said "He's yours" and stepped aside. She let go of the vine under Carlisle's signal.

After James was released by the vines, he was immediately controlled by Emmett and Jasper. With Carlisle's encouragement, Edward palely twisted James' head off and burned James to death.

A group of people looked at the burning James quietly but showed no joy, and even Nora didn't have much relaxed expression on his face.She had just been told that Bella was still injured under their heavy protection, her hand bones were dislocated, a slight concussion, excessive blood loss, etc. almost killed her, and all of these were Victoria's masterpieces.

The Cullen family successfully got rid of James, a serious worry, but unfortunately Victoria escaped.

Edward was very dissatisfied with this result, and he believed that letting Victoria slip away would leave them with trouble in the future.What mattered even more to him was the fact that Bella was badly injured in the incident, a fact that reminded Edward that he almost killed Bella.

Carlisle escorted Nora back home, and he told Nora that he could visit Bella with Charlie tomorrow.Nora nodded heavily. Just by describing her, she knew that Nora might be seriously injured.When Carlisle came home, he saw the members of the family gathered in the living room, and they looked worriedly at Edward's closed door.

Edward in the room was so tormented by guilt that he couldn't think, and he remembered what Nora had said to them.Perhaps Nora was right, and vampires were too dangerous for humans.

"Jacob is a better choice." Edward lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly, and whenever he thought of the picture of Bella and Jacob together, he felt extremely painful.

Vampires have a strong possessive desire for their partners. Edward has always had strong hostility towards Jacob, a rival in love and natural enemy, but he has no way to give Bella a future.The future he wants is not to turn Bella into a bloodthirsty monster like himself, even if he hides it best. He was also a murderer.

Debussy's "Sacred Dances and Secular Dances" flows quietly in the room, and Edward's vision flashes through the bits and pieces of being with Bella, and finally Bella's fragile and pale face on the hospital bed emerges in his mind.

Hearing Bella's pleading, his heart throbbed in pain, as if a big hand was squeezing his heart vigorously, and he was constantly making choices.

He couldn't bear it, really couldn't bear to leave Bella.

Edward took a deep breath, and he decided to give himself another chance to try.He couldn't give up on Bella, and wanted to prove his determination to protect Bella to Nora.Thinking of this, Edward's eyes became firmer, and a smile appeared on his tense face.

He opened the door and smiled at the family members in the living room.

After the James incident, the relationship between Bella and Edward continued to heat up, but the relationship between Bella and Nora almost dropped to freezing point.Although the words Bella yelled at Nora were unscrupulous lies in a panic, Bella's truth may not be contained in these words.

The next day, Charlie and Nora went to the hospital to visit Bella, who was hospitalized. Charlie immediately softened his heart when he saw his daughter lying on the hospital bed. He had completely forgotten the hurtful things Bella said yesterday. In the ward, they hugged each other to settle their suspicions.But Nora couldn't forgive, she stood aside with a very faint smile on her face.

After Charlie left the ward, Bella told Nora a full account of what happened when they played baseball, and then apologized sincerely to Nora.

It stands to reason that Bella also has unavoidable difficulties. After learning the truth with Nora’s defensive character, she must forgive Bella immediately, and she will also offer her most sincere care and love—just like Nora did to Edward and Bella. It's the same as compromise in communication.

But this time Nora didn't, there was always a small lump in her heart.It doesn't matter if she is narrow-minded or ignorant, she can't face Bella without any grievances this time.

Nora spends the night after the dust settles thinking about what Bella said, and she sadly discovers that even though Bella said those harsh things on purpose to provoke her, they are actually true.It is true that I always try to educate Bella and influence her to do things that Nora likes.

For example, hang up your coat when you go home, report when you go out, the 08:30 curfew time, and so on.Nora smiled wryly, as if she was more lenient than Charlie.The most frightening thing is that Nora originally planned to live in Bella's house temporarily, and then move out after she understands the human world, so as not to cause trouble to Bella and Charlie.But now I have been eating and living for half a year, and I still have no intention of moving away.

Nora left Bella's ward. She stood at the door of the hospital and touched the invitation letter in her pocket.

Mr. Hanks from Fox High School recorded a short video for Nora and sent it to a friend in the troupe. Nora was told that a small troupe took a fancy to Nora's singing talent and invited her to Seattle to audition.If the audition is successful, she will get paid a lot of money and get the opportunity to tour around the world.

There is no feast that never ends, and the opportunity to leave is right in front of you, but Nora dare not reach out to grab it.Nora suddenly remembered how she was when she first met Nora. Bella took care of her for four and a half years. Now, is she really going to throw her into the crowd of vampires because of a meaningless dispute?

She hesitated for a moment, took out the invitation letter in her pocket, tore it into pieces, and threw it into the hospital's trash can.This time, Edward and Nora, who have always been at odds, made the same decision-they will accompany Bella until they are no longer needed.
