Edward’s rebellious years were behind him, and he was at last beginning to feel a modicum of peace through his family’s vegetarian lifestyle. His life is turned upside down when Bella, the human woman that he’d saved from the clutches of a murderous vampire, comes back into his life in a very unexpected way. He’s forced to face his growing affection for her. He has two choices...create a future with the woman who draws him like no other, or abandon her and his family for a second time.

Immortality. What does it even mean? For Aro: eternal power. For Marcus: eternal grief. And for Caius? Perhaps he never really knew, perhaps he just went on out of sheer anger?

But for Elizabeth immortality had always meant evil. Only the villains in stories desired eternal life, and usually it was their downfall. And yet... was this love? Between an immortal and a human?

Alice thought Jasper was her soulmate. However, when she begins to have visions of a new human boy attending Forks High School, she must question everything she knew to be true. Starts off BellaxOC but will become AlicexOC. WARNING: Rated NC-17 for BDSM themes and sex scenes.

Sixth sense: a special ability to know something that cannot be learned by using the five senses. Humans use 10% of their brain, but it's been proven that those with a sixth sense use more. Some wish to harness that power. With a target on us, sixxers are hunted as we try to stay hidden, blending in with the average world around us...when we are anything but average.

Since her parents were killed in a car crash, 11-year-old Bella is forced to endure an abusive adoptive family. It’s up to Edward to save her before it’s too late.

We always expected a happy ever after.  We always knew in New Moon that Edward would return.  We always thought that Bella was the strong one.

What if we were wrong?

This story will cover Edward's journey through the depth of darkness, a hundred years after the events of New Moon. Rated for sex, dark themes, depressing topics, and the like.

Happily ever after doesn't mean that everything is perfect.  It means that everything works out in the end.  We just need to have patience.

This is the Companion story for Need To Escape, told in Robert's point of view.

This story will make better sense if you read at least the first ten chapters of Need To Escape before starting this one.

The chapters of On the Threshold will parallel NTE. 

What was Rob thinking? Now we'll know.

Summary:  Leah has gotten past the pain of Sam imprinting on her cousin, but she still keeps a wall around her heart.  Can she let go of the pain, and let love in?  Jacob finally finds love, but can he find the courage to tell her about his wolf.  Meanwhile, a new enemy builds strength in the south, threatening to destroy everything and everyone they hold dear. 

Bella doesn't let people in easily. When she does, she commits absolutely - to family, to friends, to love. With a blossoming career and a fiance she adores, there isn't much more she expects out of life. Then, a crushing revelation derails her dreams and fractures her sense of self. Gluing the pieces back together isn't easy when you can't find them all.

He’d hurt her and nearly destroyed her. But Edward’s crucial mistake was thinking that Bella wouldn’t fight back. Bella was a lot tougher than she looked and she was damned if she was going to believe for one minute that the last several months of her life had been a lie.

Sometimes the bad things that happen in our lives put us directly in the path of the best things that will ever happen to us. ExB AH

Two warring clans in the Scottish highlands.

Two Lairds weary of the fight.

Both men tired of loss, and tired of death.

A peace must be managed if both clans are to survive.

To make the peace a lasting one both men will offer their greatest treasures. William Black's only son, Jacob, has fought the Cullen's his entire life. He has lost kith and kin to the swords of his enemy, and now he has lost his laird. War with the Cullens had taken his father's legs, and has made William Black seek peace, by any needs necessary.

Jacob accompanies his father into the den of the enemy. He listens to these two giants bargain and barter themselves into an agreement. It gauls him to his very core to think that anything should be lost to the Cullens. Then he hears Cullens final offer.

Renesmee Cullen is the daughter of the laird. She has trained along side her brother and her father's men and is as good a swordsmen as any of them. She has longed to join the fight against their enemy for years. Now she is of age, but as a woman her fate rests in the hands of men.

When the two lairds agree to a marriage between their offspring they are resting the fate of two clans on the heads of two of the most stubborn people they have ever known.

Can Jacob tame the hellcat he is forced to wed? Can Nessie break the heart of the fierce wolf who holds her reins? Or is the heat they generate between them too bright and too hot to do anything but consume them?
