Bella doesn't hear news of Edward, months after he left for war, and begins to lose all hope of her love's return.

When she finds a letter she was never meant to read, how will she deal with the news she's been longing for? And when an eager stranger offers his help, will he do more harm than good?

  "Only one person could pull her from the darkness, and I wasn't him."

Angst filled tale of those who are left behind, and maybe a happy ending.

Various points of view throughout.

All Canon after a little heartache.

Drinking only the blood of animals, Edward Masen fought to keep his humanity in an existence that always craved death and human blood.  But after ten years of suppressing the monster that rules his instincts, Edward believes that you can't hold on to what you don't have.  As he struggles with his ideals over right and wrong, Edward must decide if his humanity is a fair price to pay for a decent meal.

This story covers Edward's "rebellious years" when he left Carlisle to prey on humans.  But only the bad ones, so it's okay.......he thinks.

Summary: REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION. It is the year 1353. Europe has been ravaged by the plague, and millions died. Now the scourge has ended and religion is flourishing. To thank God for their deliverance, or to atone for the sins of their dead loved ones, many people will go on pilgrimages, either to near or far away destinations. We will follow a number of such pilgrims, willing to worship at San Marcus’ shrine. But, things are not always what they seem. The handsome young monk leading them is very pale under his cowl, and he appears to be fasting all the time. Plus, all of them have secrets and very few are innocent. Will they find love or death at the end of the journey?

When published as an O/S, the prologue won an Emerging Swan Award for Best Original Character (Bonizella).

Seven chapters, one for each Cullen, based on the lives they lead as humans. Why is it that neither Carlisle Cullen, Jasper Whitlock, Esme Platt, Edward Masen, Alice Brandon, Rosalie Hale, nor Emmett McCarty had happy, carefree lives before they became immortal? Is it the times they lived in?

"What was I thinking? What was I doing? I knew what my next course of action would be, what it had to be, and it was horrifying. A tiny portion of sanity fought to stop me. But the rest of my mind was no longer in my control. A few more moments and I came upon a small tent with a smoldering fire out front, two adults sleeping inside. Nobody else was in sight or hearing.

It all happened very quickly. In less than a second I was the only one in the tent breathing. The tiny portion of sanity in the corner of my mind was nowhere near strong enough to stop me from quenching my thirst.

It wasn't until after I was finished – my scorching need faded but not completely satisfied – that I fully comprehended what I had done. Though I still didn't know who I was, I now knew what I was.

I felt sick at the thought."

Full Moon Rising follows Alice as her human life ends and her vampire life begins. Each chapter gives a new glimpse into her history, from her family life with her parents and sister, through the dark years at an insane asylum, to finally meeting Jasper and travelling with him to meet the Cullens.

Kept as canon and historically accurate as humanly possible. Rated R for sexual content, dark themes, and violence.

"I could hear his breathing, feel his eyes boring into me. I wondered what he saw there. Did he see the sadness of a little girl who could not die? Did he see the yearning of a child who could not grow up? A girl who could never age a day that could never stand beside him in civil society as his wife? I would never be a mind reader. No matter how much I wanted to know, even for a second, what he was thinking... I would never know."

This is the story of the lives of Carlisle and Esme. Starting with Carlisle's human life and lonely vampire beginnings, then Esme's human life, before looking at how they first met, found each other again, fell in love, married, and built themselves a family.

My Pre-Twilight entry in the Canon Tour. Near the Civil War's end, Carlisle decides to go West. Crossing the country was easy, but a rock slide, a hostile miner, a sardonic journalist, and a surprising vampire proved...diverting. M for lemon and attempted assault reference.
