"His agony defines him. His memories destroy him.

But his hope is what sustains him, feeds him, encourages him. It's his purpose. And he doesn't deny it.

Offered the chance to leave all pain and misery behind, Edward knew that it was better to suffer his loss than to forget it. For in having it, Bella remains his and only his.

To forget would be the ultimate betrayal, abandoning her once again to a world of lonliness and despair. He had already done that once upon a time, and he did so spectacularly.

He'll find her. He has to. 

HE HAS TO."

Middle class Southampton residents Isabella and Angela Swan are about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. Titanic, White Star's newest luxury liner, is ready to make her maiden voyage across the expansive Atlantic, and the sisters have a direct passage to the states, leaving behind the only home they've ever known to start anew in New York.

The two find excitement, adventure, and so much more during their five days afloat, but one dark and fateful night, and a signal seconds too late, could cause it all to come crashing down, possibly taking away the only things that have ever mattered most to them.

This apparent Ship of Dreams could hold the key to a lifetime of happiness, or to a world of heartache.

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.

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).

Waking up naked in a strange bed is bad enough. Waking up naked and tied up in a strange bed is worse. Even worse than that? Waking up naked and tied up in the bed of the vampire who wants to eat you.  WARNING: DARK SEXUAL THEMES, VIOLENCE, GORE.

Bella's first encounter with Edward instantly leads to a mutual dislike. She is the new girl in town that has attracted more than one admirer and he's the boy who usually gets what he wants. So how will one evade when the other is set to conquer? AH
