Abandoned by his parents, seven year old Edward is neglected and abused in his foster home and his only close friend, Bella, lives in Arizona for ten months out of the year.  It is only when the Cullens unexpectedly enter his life that he learns what it means to be loved and his wounded soul starts to heal.

When tragedy brings Bella to Forks for good, she comes hiding a secret too big to share, even with him.  Can these two tortured souls find happiness in a mad world of vampires and werewolves or are they already doomed by their own past?

WARNING: Strong language, underage drug and alcohol abuse, thoughts of suicide and suicide attempts, mental illness and child abuse.  Future lemons. Major angst.

This is Edward's story.

The Vial contains three items: a strand of hair, a small piece of cloth, and an eyelash. All three items belong to Bella's Maker, her Vampyre. She is tracking him down and she will find him if it takes her until the end of time. Bella is intent upon revenge but her plans go awry when she finally does meet her Vampyre. She is caught between two choices; will she finally kill him for all the pain he has put her through?

Or will she finally learn to love?

An Angsty fic with a streak of romance. Rated M for violence, language, and sexual scenes.

A woman awakes in a forest. She is lost, alone and has practically no memory. Three members of the Cullen family find her and take her to their home. But everything is not as it appears, especially not with the girl.  How can the little she knows to be true actually be possible?  It could be said that anything is possible when thrown into a world of myth.

Follow along as she travels on her journey to find, forgive and move beyond her past, all the while finding herself and something she never knew she was looking for.

This is mostly an E/B story though other loved and not so loved characters will be involved.

Edward and Bella have been reunited and are building a new life together. But with the changed family dynamic, and a new threat on the horizon, things are not going to be easy. Sequel to I'm Only Sleeping.

What do you do when the one you thought would love you forever up and leaves you? You move to Vegas of course!

It's 3 years after Edward left Bella. She's discovered a new life, and made new friends, but has never really gotten over Edward's abandonment.

When a chance encounter with Alice at a local Vegas night club brings the Cullens back full force into Bella's life, how will she react? Is there any hope for them to rekindle their friendships? More importantly, is there any chance that she and Edward can work through her distrust and his shame and guilt to get back their undying love, or does attention from a new love interest have Bella distracted?

Come on in to the world of Crooked Halo's and Ink Junkies, and find out!

Originally written for the TwiFicPics Talk Nerdy to Me Drabble Challenge, this is a story about how Geeky Edward meets stunning Physics TA Ms. Swan and, well, talks nerdy to her.  She's different, though, and he has theories about why...

AU - As Bella waits for Jacob to make her cliff dive, Victoria takes advantage of this opportunity.  The story deviates from New Moon at this point.

Summary: It is the year 1353. Europe has been ravaged by the plague, and millions died. Now the scourge has ended and religion is flourishing. To thank God for their deliverance, or to atone for the sins of their dead loved ones, many people will go on pilgrimages, either to near or far away destinations. We will follow a number of such pilgrims, willing to worship at San Marcus’ shrine. But, things are not always what they seem. The handsome young monk leading them is very pale under his cowl, and he appears to be fasting all the time. Plus, all of them have secrets and very few are innocent. Will they find love or death at the end of the journey?

This is a Pre Twilight AU story. It is rather dark and there are no Edward and Bella, obviously. Feel like reading it all the same? I hope so, because I promise you a passionate love story, despite the setting. The rating is NC 17, for violence, sex and, just in one case, slash.

Each chapter will be decorated with the appropriate image. Unfortunately there is a rule I can only post the links. I do hope you will click on them. They are part of the story too.

The Pilgrimage has a blinkie

When published as an O/S, the prologue won an Emerging Swan Award for Best Original Character (Bonizella).

*Takes place during New Moon in an alternate universe.

On March 16, 2006,  the World changed, and everything and anything that the Cullens ever cared about was lost. They had to find their own way in this New World. Edward never wished to exist in a world where Bella didn't.  Unfortunately, his family desperately needed him, so he'd stay to help them.   And by doing so, he hoped to redeem himself for his failure to save the one creature he couldn't protect. 

With rumours in the South of humans feeding off the living and stealing people from their beds, the Cullens have a responsibility to protect the ones they can from those monsters in the night.  This was Edward's last chance to fight for his soul and his salvation.  He would finally be ready to face Judgement day and be deemed worthy enough to be with Bella once again.  Or would something or someone change the path he was destined to go down?  Faith, hope and love are powerful things, and Edward is about to find out just how powerful they are.

Yes... this is the story that is set during a post-apocalyptic nuclear war. Just try the Prologue to get a feel for it before passing judgment. You might be surprised. Warning: There is violence and disturbing images the further the story goes along.

Bella's family is attacked by vampires when she is young, leaving her the sole survivor. Rescued by Dr Carlisle Cullen, she is adopted into his 'vegetarian' family, consisting of him, his wife Esme and their three sons Emmett, Edward and Jasper. Struggling with her trauma, Bella finds herself developing special bonds with each of the Cullen boys.

This story has no Alice or Rosalie (or at least, not as vampires or Cullens).
