This short story and its predecessor were written for IRISH-SIDHEESER for Fandom Gives Back: Eclipse Edition back in 2010. It's purely for fun and won't be for everyone.

“Son, you are here to receive a precious gift.  It is one that my father bestowed upon me, and his father bestowed upon him—one I will pass on to you now and expect that you give to your own sons when it is time.”

“You are a Cullen, and were therefore born with certain natural—endowments—that predispose you to success with women.  But, there is a beauty in sex which, if you could only grow to appreciate it—an art which, if you could only commit to learning it—will bring you and the women in your life such divine fulfillment as most mortals never know.  It is the art of worship, Edward, and it has very little to do with sex.”

 AU. E/B meet under different, violent circumstances, his nature exposed to Bella from the start. Surviving that first encounter together, they navigate a slow road toward friendship, then romance. But obstacles begin to multiply around them, and soon the question arises: are these obstacles random or by design - and by whom?

Based on the following Twilight quote: "All this time [Esme's] been worried bout me, afraid that there was something missing from my essential makeup, that I was too young when Carlisle changed me."

When Bella goes to live with her father in Forks, things go much better than she expected. At least until a slick parking lot, a careening van, a broken arm, and her weird lab partner from biology get in the way...
