Edward’s vigilante days have come a little later in his existence. He lives in solitude, the rest of his family dwelling in Alaska and hunts the truly evil across the US.

Bella knows nothing of the vampire world, and although she was never involved in an icy car accident, she is still a magnet for trouble.

If he had met her alone in a dark alley, say, after saving her from creepy guys in Port Angeles, would it have been different?

He loved her so much, even then, that he'd tried his hardest to hold them together. Tried to talk, and when that hadn't worked, he'd tried to keep his mouth shut. To patiently bear her rebuttals and her undeserved scorn, to put up with her insults and her barely-veiled jibes, poking at his manhood, his family, his former and present life - poking holes into the fabric of his very existence until he was brought to his knees under its weight.

He'd tried. But in the end, it hadn't mattered.

She'd left anyway.

Banner credit goes to addicttwilight2 - words cannot express how uniquely fabulous she is!
