What if Bella had given birth to twins? Would Renesmee’s twin be pushed aside as Jacob focused on Renesmee, or would he have been imprinted on by one of the other wolves or vampires they know? Would he feel like he was on the outside? Find out how it’s all played out three years later.

It was there where my life fell apart, where everything inside of me died. It was a simple decision really. Who would give up the opportunity to have a piece of heaven? I tried but I couldn't. I was so young, so naïve.

On a far distant planet, Bella and Edward find love. A true love in a modern society that steps back into the recesses of time, where dominant males seek out submissive females to complete their households.

No vampires, but plenty of aliens. This story includes:

Edward/Bella, Carlisle/Esme, Jasper/Alice, Emmett/Rosalie, Marcus/Didyme and the majority of characters that are involved in the original series.

AU, in-cannon, lemons, E/B, A/J, R/E, C/E

Written for Sharon, who supported me in the FGB1 auction. Carlisle is a good man, though lonely, and a good doctor. He's always resisted temptation in the past, but he finds in the hospital blood so sweet he's not sure he CAN resist. How will he cope?

(author was formerly known as mrsalreyami, author of A Light in The Darkness and Basking in the Light of Our Love) 

What if Alice and Bella hadn't made it to Volterra in time? This is my idea what would have happened. Rated PG to be safe, violent themes mentioned. Enjoy!

Alice has had vivid visions of the quiet new girl at school who she thinks will win Edward's heart.  But Bella is hiding a laundry list of dark secrets: a deadbeat mother, abusive father, and even more that she refuses to talk about.  When the secrets finally start tumbling out, Edward and Rosalie form an uneasy truce to keep her safe from Charlie.  Carlisle wants to alert the authorities and go through proper channels.  Edward and Rose don't think that's good enough, and they're willing to disobey their adoptive father and risk the family's dissolution to keep Bella safe.

It was a choice I faced every time I watched her. Leave or pounce?

Written for the quickie contest: A snapshot, a moment in time, a short story in <500 words.

Ascension of the Morning Star is a novel-length work that offers an alternative to Breaking Dawn.  The work is represented in two books, Evening Star and Morning Star.  Each book will appear as a separate story on this site.  This is Part I.

In Part I:  Evening Star, we find Bella and Edward preparing for their marriage.  From engagement to wedding night the whirlwind of 55 planning days is a roller coaster of emotion, intrigue,and surprises for everyone. Exploring sexuality & intimacy, will Edward be ready?  As the big day draws nearer, everyone realizes this is a good-bye, but not everyone realizes how true that is... 

The facets of their transition to marriage are much the same as other young couples, however, they are not like any other young couples and they face a specific set of challenges on their way to the altar.  Their journey will force the Cullen family to confront the demons of their hearts and rediscover their connection to humanity they thought to be lost forever.  Even the humans find compelling forces of change in their lives because of this one strange human. A young woman's presence has altered the destiny of those she loves.

Post Eclipse, AU, Cannon Characters and Relationships. Mature for sexual situations.

The story of Ascension of the Morning Star continues with Part II.  A major shift in tone, action, and impact from Part I.  Hang on to your hats.  It is a thunderbolt from the begining and rarely lets up.  Whereas Part I is light and laughter, Part II is darkness and tears.

When Bella's transformation is not a dream come true, the future is anything but assured, yet, one thing is clear.  By her existence, she will rock the foundations of both the human and mythical worlds.   Although there are bright signs of possibility in unexpected places, but the question is simply this:  Would you follow your destiny if you knew it would cost you your eternal life? 

What if Bella isn't the only one changed by her choice to follow her Destiny?

Canon characters and relationships explored in greater detail.  Contains family relationships, humor, mature situations, sensual exploration, action, and inference; horror, angst, hurt, gore, limited violence, loss, mystery, psychic phenomenon, and mythic/religious references.

Isabella Swan is an antique document specialist. When the papers she is working on lead her overseas, she finds herself immersed in the mystery of the enigmatic Edward Masen. What secrets will she find as she explores the documents and letters of the elusive Cullen clan and what does Edward want her to find out about him?

Bella and Edward are just back from their honeymoon and are attending Dartmouth so that Bella can remain human for a while longer. But, when Renee is diagnosed with a terminal illness, Bella will do anything to try to save her - including taking her Biophysical Chemistry education to a whole new level. She asks Edward for his help and begins experimenting to try to find a way to save Renee's life - and in the process, comes face to face with mortality and her own ethical conflicts.
