Here is the promised outtake, it is un-beta'd so please excuse any mistakes!

Outtake from Chapter 10:
I continued to pick at the sandwich I’d gotten to eat when Edward excused himself to grab a drink to bring upstairs.

If you had told me a month ago that my life would literally been flipped over I would have grabbed Nathan and ran for the hills. As a mom nothing can prepare you for the day your child goes missing. Nor could it prepare me for the day when I’d found out it was the hands of someone close to us.

I was never a fan of Tanya’s, but not for the reason most people would think. After Nathan was born any romantic feelings I had towards Edward had died. I realized then that, at one time I thought he had a lot of the characteristics that I wanted, but in the end it was nothing more than wanting a “happily ever after” ending. I blamed the hormones.

Edward was kind and considerate, but his family almost made me run for the hills on several occasions. I was sure Esme had her reasons for hating me, as deranged as they probably were, but it didn’t matter. I saw Edward for who he was, a man who would never step up against his mother. It was that realization that caused me to break everything off. I was not willing to become “second rate” to anyone for the rest of my life. If that meant being alone then at least I’d come first to me.

When I met Tanya I didn’t really have an opinion of her. She seemed nice although she seemed fake. I monitored her interactions with Nathan for a while, but he seemed to be okay with her and Edward seemed to fall in love with her. It meant “family” functions became less awkward because Esme was too busy kissing Tanya’s ass then telling me I was a gold digger. Funny thing is I had a job, and Tanya didn’t, but I was the gold digger. I internally shrugged. I obviously hadn’t been a good judge of character, but I refused to let that happen again.

Truth be told I was terrified to live with Edward. We had no problem being civil, even friendly, towards each other but really I didn’t know him anymore. I suppose I could use this time to get to know him again, but I didn’t know if he was worth the effort. I’d watched him go up against his family twice in the past twenty four hours, but I didn’t know when the other shoe would fall. He claimed that things were over with Tanya when she wanted to go on vacation, yet I still walk in on....I shook my head. I did not need to visualize that again!

I heard my name being called which broke me from the fog overtaking my thoughts. I looked up to see a woman standing before me. Dark shoulder length hair with a slight girl, way too much make-up, and a strapless silk dress. She was NOT a local for sure.

“Excuse me, are you Bella Swan?” She asked. Her voice was polite, but I didn’t know her.

“Can I help you?”

“I’m Kate Winston, I was wondering if I could talk to you for a few minutes.”

“I’m sorry I don’t talk to the media.”

“Oh I’m not a reporter.”

“Then who are you?”

“I’m Garrett’s wife, Garret Randall.”

My blood ran cold. I knew that name and it belonged to the man I wished death upon. How his wife had the nerve to want to speak to me shocked me. Kate took my silence as a green light to begin talking.

She explained how amazing Garrett was and they had two children together, that it was all Tanya’s fault when they started having an affair he went crazy, and she was pleading with me to lessen the charges. I continued to listen to this woman, who was out of her mind until I found my voice back.

I stood up, my fists white knuckling the table in an attempt not to swing at her.

“You want me to what?!” I screeched whispered.

“They say he’ll go away for twenty years, by then our kids will be in college. As a mother you have to understand how important it is to be there for your children, I’m just asking that you make them let him out after a few years. I don’t want to be a single parent.”

“Your husband,” I spat. “Took my seven year old little boy, stuffed him into a bag, and threw him off a cliff! And you want to talk to me about being a single parent? I almost lost him and you....”

“He’s alive though now, he’s not dead,” She rushed.

Edward chose that moment to walk up. I could tell he was taking accounting of our conversation and immediately took a defense stance in front of me.

I wasn’t sure how I felt about that, but in the moment, I was only thankful I would go to jail for killing her. The nerve of this woman.

I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts I completely missed my dad showing up and escorting Kate away.

When Edward still hadn’t let go of me in the elevator I wanted to push away, but he was the only thing keeping me from hunting this Kate Winston down.

When we entered Nathan’s room I was reminded of why I was here. My baby was laying in that bed and I needed to get a grip for when he woke up.

The moment I chose to sit down and grab his hand his eyes flew open.

Relieve spread through me as I told him hi.

When he leaned up towards me to tell me his first recount of his abduction I went numb.

Up until that point it was all speculation, strong speculation, but still speculation.

Now we knew without a doubt it was Tanya.

And I knew, without a doubt, I would kill her the next time I saw her.
