The pair decided to visit the Cullen's so the guard could be calm, and the other wouldn't go to their house, it was night already so they thought that the human wasn't there anymore, when they enter everyone was in different places, they walk toward Rosalie and Emmett that was in the living room with Jasper, when they hear the pair coming they turn around to them and smile

-Look who is here! -Emmett said, making the pair chuckle softly

-If you missed me you have to call brother, I know people can not resist without my presence -Stephen said with a smirk, making Emmett roll his eyes

-Jasper brother do you smell that? -Athena ask with clear mockery in her voice

-Is envy in the air sister -he responds just like Thena with a smirk

-Brother you need to know that not even the vampire beauty can help you against me -Stephen responds

-I was happy to see you now I don't -Emmett said

-That was the sound of his heart breaking because of the truth, so much pain Jasper catch me -Thena said as she fainted dramatically while Jasper grabbed her with a smile, and the others laughed, and make her lay down while he start caressing her hair

-I thought I heard my son and my daughter-in-law -they heard a voice coming toward them, Melissa came out of the kitchen with Esme behind -I see I told you Esme my hearing is right

-What is happening here? -Esme asked with a smile seeing the scene

-Just Emmett's heart breaking from the truth -Rosalie said with a smile, while her husband look at her in disbelief

-Just so you all know I'm pretty handsome

-Whatever helps your mind cover the truth brother- Stephen responds while going to sit on the couch while Thena starts messing with Jasper's hair and the two of them start bickering at each other

-I see Stephen has his ego intact -Melissa said while rolling her eyes

-Of course not, we win -Rosalie and Thena said in sync

-Don't worry they do that sometimes -Esme said to her

-That is so not true -he said with a frown on his face

-Stephen dear, we have enhanced beauty -Rosalie explains to him like he was a kid

-There is no one more beautiful and perfect than the both of us -Athena adds while playing with Jasper's hair

-If you continue there is going to be a fight about this -Jasper said while he free his hair from Athena's hand

-Is not like he doesn't know the truth Jasper, he has a lot of pride to admit that we win -Rosalie said, while Thena was trying so hard not to laugh, while Esme and Melissa look at each other in a funny way

-Well I am going to leave now, Scott and your dad should be in the house already -Melissa said while going to put a kiss on Stephen's cheek and hug him, and Athena a kiss on the head

-We go in the morning we probably stay here the night -he respond and that made Esme and Rosalie smile, when Melissa leave they keep talking until they heard the car of Edward and the human with him, the pair rolled their eyes at that, she shouldn't be here this late.

The pair walked quickly into the living room with Edward with a face of worry, that the alpha and the hybrid didn't care and just wanted to know what happened out of curiosity, but of course, Athena didn't wait and read his mind and was surprised to see that someone was in the human house

-Jasper, Emmett can you help me someone was in Bella's house a vampire -the mind reader said, the brothers got up and leave the house, he knew that Athena could find the vampire in a second knowing that she has Demetri's gifts but she was not going to help him

-Let's wait for Carlisle he is coming now from work -Esme said- Bella are you okay?

-Yes, I was thinking that was too close -she respond

-And Charlie? -Athena ask Edward, he was surprised because she didn't say a word to him in months, not since Volterra

-He is fine, I don't know what happen but it was there, maybe I missed him for some minutes -he respond, she was going to send him food later, Carlisle enter the room and saw his family including Stephen and Athena, they explain quickly what happens to him and minutes later Jasper and Emmett came back, Thena was quick and sit next to Rose while Stephen went to stand behind her

-Who was it? Someone, we know? -Carlisle ask

-A stranger, I didn't recognize the scent -Edward said to him

-A nomad passing through? -Esme asked

-A nomad wouldn't have left Bella's father alive -Rosalie explains

-Rose is right, nomads don't have control, and the poor control that they have doesn't help much- Thena adds, as Jasper and Emmet enter the living room

-The scent disappeared about five mills south of Bella's house -Jasper said in a serious tone, while Thena got up and walk toward Stephen that put his hands around her waist in a protective way, he was worried that someone was close to their home, they will need to talk with the others about it, he hides his face in Athena's neck while she caressed his hair letting him know that she was safe in his arms, and Bella took notice on how the alpha was with the little blonde, for Bella that pay attention to them, it was little things that they do and could see the love that they have for each other

-Someone's orchestrating this -the leader said

-Victoria? -Bella asked in worry

-We would have seen her decide -Alice and Thena respond at the same time

-Has to be the Volturi -Edwar said, making Athena and Stephen glared at him

-And why in Hell we would do that -she hissed in anger -If you want me to kill her say the word Edward but don't say things that are not true -Athena hissed while some thunders were heard

-Edward they are not the ones who did it, the kings gave us time and they respect that -Carlisle said this time already putting himself in the middle so the blonde doesn't reap his son's head

-And we go to the front when we want to fight someone, we don't hide in the shadows, we say the things in the face, we keep our word -Stephen adds with a glare at him

-So we keep looking- Emmett said

-We'll also take shifts guarding Bella at her house -Carlisle said, to Stephen and Athena hear that was clear that Carlisle was not going to change

-Another protection detail? -Rosalie asks in a mad tone

-Rosalie -he warned

-No, she is right, you can't protect me, watch my dad and search for the intruder -the human explain, the blonde could see the idea that she had and had to bite her tongue to not say anything

-And Victoria- Rosalie add

-And keep yourselves fed -she adds

-I'm not leaving you here defenseless -Edward responds to Bella

-Well, I'm not gonna let you starve, and I wouldn't be unprotected, I have.. -the human stop talking and unsure

-What? -Edward ask

-You are not that idiot, right? -Stephen asks him- She wants the wolves -he explains to him like he was a kid and that made Athena chuckle gaining a glare for the mind reader something that she returns quickly

-This is going to be interesting -Thena mumbled to herself and her husband who nod his head, but then Carlisle turn to see the pair and Stephen was the first one to talk

-No, we are not going to help in any way to the human-he stated, Carlisle sight but understand- But we are going to be with Emmett and Rosalie in their turns

-Yes, I don't trust the dogs close to them, even more after what happened before in the treaty -Thena said, and the other pair smiled in gratefulness to them

-We need to talk with them then- Carlisle said

-That the blood bag talk with them, that she does something -Thena responds coldly

-Bella can you talk with them? -the leader ask

-Yes, I will send a message to Jacob -she respond, and that made Athena smirk when the mind reader start to feel jealous, they wait while the human text

-We start today? -Jasper asked

-Tomorrow, we need to hunt at least the majority of us -the leader said

-Yes, Edward can stay with her -Esme said

-Is not like he didn't do it before -the little blonde whisper that only the vampires hear, her husband, mother, and brothers have to bite their lips not to laugh, and Esme send them a glare

-He says that he will go tomorrow to the house and catch the scent -the human explains, the alpha and the hybrid turn to see each other thinking the same, they needed to go so they will be safe that the dog wouldn't say anything

-We will go with this -Athena said signaling Edward that look confused but then a frown came to his face when he realized that she call him a thing, they walked toward the exit and say goodbye

-We see you in the pet's house -Athena yelled so the human could hear her, Rosalie and the others had to laugh they couldn't hold it anymore

-Thena!! -Esme yelled but the pair was already speeding toward their home

The pair enter their house knowing that Stephen's family was already asleep and went to the library to see the others, Jane and Alec on the large couch, Demetri on the seat of the piano and Felix on the second floor of the library, Sera and Nagini appear seconds later behind them

Alec turned to see his sister when he heard her coming and confusion came to his face- I thought that you were going to stay there that night -he said

-The blood bag came to the house, and looks like some vampire was in her house- Thena explain going to seat on the small couch

-A nomad? -Demetri asked from his place

-No, the father was alive it means that however, the person was there had some type of control -Stephen explain- We are going tomorrow with the mind reader looks like the wolves are going to help them protect her

-What did you say? -Jane asks leaving the book aside

-They are going to put surveillance to protect her and his dad, we thought it could be a good idea that we help Emmett and Rosalie, and at the same type use their information and spy on them -the alpha explains, serving himself a glass of bourbon

-It makes sense -Jane said- And what about the neophytes?

-I am going with the four of you, that is not going to change, we are not going always, and if one of us can not go just go the other -Athena said this time

-If the nomad didn't kill the human then why he was there? -Felix asked coming downstairs

-It could be related to the read head -Demetri answer, the others look a little confused- If it was there he would need something of the human to pass her scent

-It makes sense, this is not random is a plan that she created -the alpha said already more serious and sitting next to his mate

-And they are using my blind spots on my visions -Athena said

-She is not the one deciding then- Alec adds

-She has someone else deciding for her, just like master Aro did with this situation -Jane said in understanding

-But how did she find out about my gift? -Athena asked, all of them thought for a moment realizing that just someone that they knew about them could know how to do it

-Didn't Alice say that Laurent came and the wolves kill him? -Stephen ask

-Yes, she said that Victoria send him -she respond then the realization came to her face- the Denali's told him -she hissed

-You are right just think about it, and didn't Esme say that he was the pair of one of the blonde ones -Nagini said to her, and Thena knew that she was right

-The other vegetarian clan? -Alec asked

-Yes that one, God dammit if they told him she knows that you have more than one gift, that's why she runs away from you when you chase her -Stephen growled at that

-Looks like the vegetarians are just pure problems -Demetri said, and Sera scoffed at that knowing how true it was

-And you are right about that -Thena respond in anger- I will put them in pain just for opening their mouths, it's not like they are very happy with me when I killed their mom and the immortal child

-Well it was Jane -Alec's remark

-It's not like they care who did it- she respond

-Sister is right, I would not like anyone that was involved in your murder -Jane said coldly just thinking about that the anger comes to her, Athena and Alec take her hand knowing what was happening in her head

-And what about the dogs? -Felix asked trying to change the mood in the place

-We are going tomorrow with Edward and the human to her house, we want to be sure that he would not say anything -Stephen respond

-And if he read his mind or the others? -Demetri asked

-Not gonna happen I blocked what happens with us, it's not going to matter what they do or how many times Edward tried he will not know anything -Thena said in a superior way

-Well let's hope that everything goes right -Felix said, and the others nod their head, around midnight the pair leave the room and went to their room to sleep a little to wake up early, since Thena could sleep they sleep any day that they could Stephen loved to sleep and wake up first to see her asleep so he takes those moments to show her his romantic side, in the morning they woke up and decided to go the Cullen house so Stephen could eat his breakfast done for his wife but they wanted to be there early so they wouldn't come to the house and see the guard there, Athena was the second one to take a shower so her mate could get ready, it was almost seven in the morning when Athena dressed with black jeans, a black top and her green heals, and she put a decoration in her hand so others could see her status but something was incomplete in her outfit

-Love can I take one of your sweaters?! -she yelled because her mate had music in the room, Stephen hearing his wife scream at him turn to the walk-in his closet

-What are you searching angel? -he ask while putting himself behind her while Thena was looking in the racks of sweaters without turning around and seeing that they match, he chuckled at that at some point in their relationship they could match without knowing and that was one of the many occasions

-One sweater of yours, that one that is green and black it combines with my heals and I don't have that color to match in my closet -she said, he smiled at that not believing that since she loves to use his clothes and he loves to see her in his clothes, he put a kiss on her head and walk to the other side taking the sweater

-This one you said? -he asks with a smirk, she turns quickly and smiles

-Yes that one- she teleports herself in front of him with puppy eyes- can you please lend me your sweater

He was not going to say no to her of course, but with puppy eyes, she can do anything that she want, -Of course love, and well you will smell like me -she rolled her eyes he was thinking that but she turned around and he helps her to put the sweater -You look, beautiful love

She smiles brightly at him- Thanks love -he put a kiss on her forehead and she closes her eyes enjoying the moment

-Let's go love it's time to go- she nod her head and take his hand and they walked toward the dining room where the others were and they saw Scott there too, Thena smiled toward them and put a quick kiss on Scott's head that makes him blush and gain a slap in the head from his brother, and went to hug Alec and Jane -We are going to the Cullen's to be there on time and they don't come here

-Is better, we are going later in the night to start the search- Alec respond

-Am going with Rosalie and Esme later to the surveillance, you can go with them today -Athena said to Stephen

-Ok let's go, send a message if you need us -Stephen said to the others

-There is blood in one of the fridges if you want -Athena said to the guard they nod their heads walking already to the kitchen, the pair leave the house and take Athena's Jeep this time, and twenty minutes later they came to the garage they could smell the human there -Her dad doesn't love her or what -she hissed

-Ignore her love come one- he got out and speed to open the door of the car to his mate, they walk and enter the house, Esme was the first one to appear with a smile

-You both are here!! -she exclaimed happily, their hearts hurt a little to use them, especially Esme and Rosalie but it was something that they had to do

-Yes, do you mind if I use the kitchen to make him breakfast? -Athena asks her

-Nonsense, you know this is still your home -Esme answer, they walk toward the kitchen with Stephen and Esme talking about his family they passed the living room and saw the human with Alice talking, Alice turns to see her but Thena send her a glare telling her that she didn't want her close when she was close to the human, and Alice respect that so she only sends her a small smile that she slightly return, the vampire and the human could see Thena star to cook and start getting the things out, fruits and all the things to do Avocado toast and cooked egg, yogurt and nuts, and Porridge overnight of strawberries, she starts first cooking the eggs even with the years it was something that she sometimes couldn't cook right so she was going to ask Esme for help

-Esme could you help me with this? -she called softly knowing that they hear perfectly in a second Esme was there

-With what do you want my help? -she asks with a smile

-With the eggs, it is supposed to be cooked but you know how that went the last time I tried to do it -she said with a pout and Esme laughed

-Is practice honey

-Esme I been doing this since Stephen came and the eggs hate me -she answered truthfully, she was very good at cooking but she never could do eggs right
