How was it that one could want something so much? How could she purposely tempt me to bite her? Did she already know my secret? No, she never cared about me before...did she? I used to believe I understood the mind of all my classmates, till I saw Amanda's eyes that day.

After changing foster parents every few years since the death of her parents when she was eight, Alice has just moved to Forks to live with her latest guardians. Ever since she was little, her psychic powers have gotten her into trouble. She comes with high hopes but also another big secret that she'll have to hide. She finds that escaping from a potentially life threatening situation is not the only perk of moving to Forks. Here she meets the elusive and breathtakingly beautiful Jasper Hale and his family, and they have their own little secret. Getting to know Jasper proves to be no easy task, but it helps when he saves her life when she most needs it. They develop a connection neither of them could've known existed and Alice is in total bliss. Here in Forks Alice thinks shes finally gotten her second chance, but she soon realizes that she can't run from her past. It's a lot faster than her.

The year was 1934 and the summer was one of the warmest I had the displeasure of experiencing in the little logging town of Forks, Washington. The usual rainy weather that had been my constant companion these last 5 years had been scarce leaving me to the heat that never seemed to go below 90 degrees even once the sun had fallen beyond the horizon. But the stifling heat was nothing compared to formality of my life. My days had been filled with endless tea times, hours upon hours of practicing the pianoforte and horrid dresses that sucked the life right out of me. That year was also the year that I met a them, the family that changed my how I wanted to live my life.

Bella, Emmett and Jasper are siblings.  Bella has just returned home to Seattle after being abroad for over a year.  Bella is a profiler for the FBI and has been pursuing a serial killer that turns out to be someone that no one would suspect.  ExB, EmxR (eventually), JxA.  Rated NC-17 for later chapters.

Another of my stories from ff.net. This is a modern day retelling of Cinderella, with my twist of Twilight added to it. Bella is the miserable adopted daughter of Rosalie, and stuck between her two ugly stepsisters, she has to do her best to meet her Prince Charming, to break free of her miserable life and attend the masked prom that will determine her future.

Summary:  Bella and Edward were the best of friends.  Then they crossed into the more than friends category and things got complicated.  Edward is desperate to keep things uncomplicated, but that just makes matters even worse.  What do you do when you think you have everything you could possibly want, but realize that you don't really have anything at all???

Bella tortured by the Cullens and Hales for 7 years. Bella's parents die in a terrible accident. She is adopted and taken away by Tanya and Liam Denali. What happens when she comes back to Seattle as a beautiful and smart woman trying to conquer an evil.

It's just a normal day in the life of me, Bella Swan, until I get fired from my waitressing job, so – of course – I called my best friend, Alice, to tell her the news, except it turns out that I didn't actually call Alice – I accidentally dialed the wrong number, and ended up talking to this mysterious stranger with a deep, rich voice who just happens to want to be my anonymous phone friend.

Yeah. Just a completely normal day. Right.

Excerpt:

I froze, my spine straightening against the bench as I shot up against its back. “Um, who is this?”

There was silence, and then the man chuckled. "Shouldn't I be asking you that question?"

Even seemingly perfect creatures struggle with their personal demons.

A songfic to Bleed Like Me by Garbage

She is surprised when she discovers one of her classmates is a vapmire named Edward, and she is strangely drawn to him. A relationship begins to form, but will it be able to thrive in a world that isn't yet accepting of the new species?

Edward and Bella meet when their friends Alice and Jasper introduce them, however, the path to true love is rarely a smooth one. When they look back on the paths they've taken, will they have regrets?

Funny how the one thing I really ever wanted was to be immortal, and now that I have it, I would do almost anything to be human again. What was the point of living an eternity when you have nothing to live for? Why was he always right?

Some things are inevitable; fate. And no matter how much one wants to prevent it, or how much one tries to stop it from happening, it will happen.

And it did.

My name is Isabella Swan, and I'm a vampire.

What happens when Rosalie is given the chance to see Vera one last time, after more than seventy years of being a vampire? Closure.
