"Don't be afraid," I murmured. "We belong together."
I was abruptly overwhelmed by the truth of my own words. The moment was so perfect, so right. There was no way to doubt it. His arms wrapped around me holding me against him . . . It felt like every nerve ending in my body was a live wire.
"Forever," he agreed.
The year is 2007; graduation is finally over and a massive battle against newborn vampires has been won. Life is starting to get back to normal for Isabella Swan, her version of normal that is. But just when she thinks everything is going according to plan, the pieces slip away.
Wars in the south, led by Jasper’s sire Maria, are raging; giving the Volturi just the excuse they need to draw closer to Forks than comfort allows. Upon discovering that Edward has failed to hold up his end of their bargain, the Volturi devise a plan to obtain Bella. Their ultimatum is simple: if Edward and Alice join them, Isabella goes free, human and whole. If they fail to comply, she will be considered a liability and silenced permanently.
Edward and Alice agree, offering themselves up to the Volturi in exchange for Bella’s life. Aro, always a man of his word, orders that Bella be released and upon their last night together, unsure of when or if they will ever see one another again, Edward and Bella consummate their relationship. Against her will, Bella is sent back to Forks, unaware of the turmoil that awaits her.
Meanwhile, Jasper is growing worried. He wants his wife and brother released and begins to devise a plan to achieve this. He calls in all his favors, coercing several other covens to join him, convincing them that the Volturi were supposed to be the dealers of justice, but their greed and thirst for power has corrupted their formerly noble cause. It is time for their reign to end.
But larger problems arise when Bella comes to realize she’s pregnant with Edward’s child and that it is slowly killing her from the inside out. She goes to Carlisle for aid, but not before news of her situation reaches the ears of Jacob Black via the packs telepathic link. With things looking more and more hopeless, will Edward and Bella ever make it down the aisle?
