Immortals

Chapter 24

Summer was at an end, and the air was getting crisper by the day. Bella looked up at the baby blue sky and smiled as the sun beat down on her beautiful, pale face. This would likely be the last sunny day in Forks for quite a while, she thought to herself. As was tradition, the Cullens were forced to avoid the public eye. Usually, Harry could “fix” their sparkly problem with just a thought, such was his power, but sadly, Harry had been away for a few days. Apparently, he had some work to do in some far-off galaxy in some other reality. It was still very hard to wrap her head around. What it meant to her was that Harry hadn’t been around for three whole days. She wasn’t going to lie, she tended to get very nervous when he wasn’t around. Rosalie, the Volturi, their plans for the future … they all hinged on Harry being present.

To get her mind off of the craziness, she decided to go for a walk. If she was going to worry, she might as well worry under the pleasant rays of the beating sun. As she walked, her mind fluttered through a thousand different thoughts. She was so caught up in her own thoughts that she didn’t realize that she had walked over a mile away from her home. Sighing, she turned around and began to walk back. Halfway home, she realized that again, she hadn’t been paying attention. Bella looked around in confusion. She didn’t recognize the street that she was on at all. Her heart began to beat faster as she tentatively stepped forward, slowly putting one foot after the other. She looked around. There was no one in sight. Suddenly, the wind whipped hard between the houses, and a chill made her shiver. Moving faster, she came upon a fork in the road. To the left was a bright and sunny road. In the distance, she could see a small, cute dog bouncing around while children laughed and shouted as they played with a sprinkler in their front yard. The road to the right was dark, dreary, and lined with gnarled trees devoid of their leaves. The sounds of the whistling wind and the deep croaks of bullfrogs could be heard from the dark path. Bella didn’t know why she had chosen such a path, but her legs began to carry her to the right.

Almost instantly, the sun disappeared and was replaced by a full moon. The bright globe of light hung ominously in the air, bathing everything around her in a dim, pale glow. Thin, whip-like branches high in the tree tops clacked together creating a sound that sent shivers down her spine. Bella rubbed her bare arms as the temperature dropped dramatically. Looking from side to side, she was desperate to find the path that would lead her back home. The loud croak of a frog made her jump. Her head swung around, and she saw a black mass of water that she guessed was a pond. Something jumped from the thicket of dead brush and splashed into the water. Then she heard a hissing. Deciding that it was a good time to leave, she started moving faster.

As Bella walked faster, she didn’t know if the rustling behind the bushes was caused by the cold wind or by disturbing, unseen creatures waiting to ambush and drag her into the depths of that icy, black pond. Not wanting to find out, her brisk walk turned into a slow trot. A loud crack as a dead branch high above her broke caused her to scream. Her shrill voice snapped sharply through the air, causing the frogs and crickets to suddenly go silent. Bella skidded to a stop and slapped a hand over her mouth. Her heart was hammering in her chest, and her breathing was becoming labored. Somewhere behind her, she heard something disturb the peace of the water. Something had breached the surface … something big. The splash was loud, and the drops of water dripping back down and sprinkling against the rippling surface somehow terrified her. The water sloshed as the unknown terror made for the swampy bank. Terror filled Bella, but somehow, she came to her senses and ran.

Bella had never run so fast in all her life. Her breaths were loud, and her hair whipped and bounced behind her with every thunderous stride. She whimpered as the stitch in her side became a sharp pain. Still, she had no choice but to keep running.

“AHHHHHHH!” she screamed as her foot caught a tree root sticking up from the dirt path. She wasn’t airborne for long before she hit the ground belly-first. Rolling, she slid down the low-sloped pathway and tumbled through some prickly bramble before breaking out on the other side. She cried out in pain as she skidded to a stop, her hands and knees burning from the dozens of scrapes and cuts that suddenly marred her soft and delicate skin. Looking over her shoulder, she saw something in the distance, though she didn’t know what. It was as though the shadows had come to life. It was massive, it was horrifying, and it was coming directly for her. Bella just knew that her clumsiness would one day be the death of her. With nothing left to lose, she shot to her feet and ran through the unending mass of trees.

Dodging this way and that, she tore through a jumble of low-hanging branches and screeched as her face was covered in cobwebs. Whether the sensation was just in her head or not, she swore that she could feel the featherlight touches of hairy spider legs crawling all over her bare skin. Swiping at her arms, she momentarily looked down while praying to god that she didn’t see a fat, spindly-legged spider climbing up her arm. It was then that the lights flashed violently behind her eyes. Suddenly, there was no more gravity before she hit the ground, flat on her back. Blinking away the stars in her eyes, she realized that she had just run smack dab into an old, scraggly tree. She gasped and rolled onto her hands and knees, looking behind her. There was nothing. She let out a small, hysterical laugh. The monster wasn’t chasing her anymore. Then she heard a deep, gut-wrenching moan. Turning back, she watched in shock as the tree that she had hit opened its eyes. They were little more than splits in the wood, but they were as black as coal. Then its mouth opened, and the moan became louder. Long tendrils of greasy, black tar stretched between its wooden jaws. The disgusting scent of stagnant water and rotting vegetation washed over her, and Bella tried not to gag. Like its eyes, its mouth was an open void of nothingness, cold and hollow.

Her body reacted before her brain could even process what was going on. She was crawling backward, her hands and feet slipping in the soft, muddy soil. As fast as she kicked her feet, she was only able to move a few inches before the tree groaned and cracked, and two of its monstrous limbs morphed into arms. It reached for her … its slim, twisted branches acting as long, menacing fingers. Bella rolled onto her hands and knees, pushing herself to her feet. Before she could run, its hand lashed out and snagged her. Long, cold branches wrapped around her soft, warm body. Bella shrieked in terror as it lifted her up and brought her toward its open maw. She thrashed and screamed, but it was of no use. Her shoe-covered feet entered its mouth first, and she could feel it bite down on her. There was no pain, only a feeling of intense pressure being placed on her legs. The hand forced more of her body in, and now only her breasts, arms, and head were free. Bella could feel the harsh, flaking bark rubbing against the skin of her belly as she put both hands against its hard, unforgiving lips and pushed. Desperate to pry herself free, she pushed again, putting everything she had into it. She was only able to let out one last scream of terror before her head was engulfed by darkness.

Bella felt herself tumbling forward, hitting the ground, and rolling to a stop, lying flat on her back. She was breathing wildly with a manic look in her eyes. She could see the ceiling of a room. Suddenly, Harry’s happy face completely covered her vision as he hovered over her and leaned down. Turning her head to the side, she saw that she was in her bedroom … but hadn’t she just …

“You?” she hissed. Harry looked as though he wanted to laugh. The corners of his perfect lips were pulling up.

“Yup,” he smiled. Suddenly, Bella was on her feet beating him over the head with a dirty sweater that she pulled from the laundry hamper.

“THAT … SCARED … THE … SHIT … OUT … OF … ME!” she yelled, smacking him with every spoken word. Harry just laughed and let her beat him up.

“You still mad Bella?” Harry asked. Bella had her back to him, and her arms were crossed over her chest.

“HMMMPH!” She still ignored him.

“How about we go to the beach? Esme and Bree are hunting with the Cullens. Family bonding time, you know? We’ve got the beach all to ourselves,” he said in a tantalizing voice. Bella perked up, though she still continued to ignore him. Harry smiled and appeared behind her. He snaked his arms around her slim waist, and he noticed that she didn’t pull away.

“I was only teasing you. Very soon you’ll be one of them, and you won’t be so easy to scare. I have to get my fun in while I can,” he said, smiling against the back of her head. He inhaled her strawberry scent while his fingers crept underneath the hem of her shirt. Bella didn’t stop him as one hand moved up and cupped her bra-covered breast. She certainly didn’t stop him as his other hand reached down and unbuttoned her jeans. Slowly pulling the zipper down, he then stuffed his hand completely down the front of her panties. Bella cried out as his fingers touched her clit.

She couldn’t stop her body from trembling. All he had to do was touch her once and she was completely wet. It was embarrassing how much her body wanted him. Bella bit her lower lip before letting out a pleasured moan as his fingers flicked back and forth over her swollen clit. She squeaked as she was abruptly lifted into the air. She was placed on her bed, and she looked him in the eyes as he pulled her shoes and socks off. Bella was squirming as he grabbed the waistband of her jeans and slowly worked the denim down her smooth legs. As her pants were tossed away, Harry smiled at her while his hands caressed the length of her legs.

“Do you forgive me?” he asked as his hands slid up the insides of her thighs. Bella’s legs spread open when the tips of his fingers touched the outside of her panties. She was so focused on the pleasure that she didn’t answer him. Harry’s thumb brushed over the top of her panties, right against her clit. Bella arched her back and moaned. “Well? Do you?” he asked again. Bella let out a pleasured whine and nodded.

“Yes, Harry,” she gasped as his thumb continued to rub her. “Please …” she begged.

“Take your panties off for me,” Harry ordered. Bella suddenly froze for a second. Harry always took her panties off whenever they fooled around. It was one of her favorite parts. With shaky hands, she reached down and lowered them. Her face burned, and she had no idea why she was so embarrassed. Her legs lifted up, and she pulled them from her feet. Bella handed them to him like a good girl and lay back with her legs parted. Her wet pussy was glistening, and there was no doubt that she was ready for whatever he had in mind. Harry’s hand massaged her inner thigh, and Bella mewled as he “accidentally” touched her dripping slit.

“Do you understand that even when you’re a vampire, I’m going to continue having my way with you?” Bella’s pussy fluttered, and she nodded. Harry was suddenly hovering over her, his body naked. She could feel his massive cock resting against her hairless mound. Bella squirmed until his cock dropped between her thighs. She quickly closed her legs, trapping him there. She wiggled around until he was pressed tightly against her slit. Harry smirked at her, knowing exactly what she wanted. Bella blushed but didn’t look away.

His hips began moving, and his cock pistoned between her thighs. Bella cried out in pleasure as his long shaft rubbed against her sensitive slit. Within seconds, she had painted him with a slick coating of her juices. Harry’s forehead was resting against hers, and she leaned in and kissed him softly on the lips. When he responded by fiercely making out with her while fucking her clit, Bella’s only unquenched desire was to be fully nude. Her shirt and bra were a boundary that she didn’t like. She wanted nothing between them. Out of nowhere, the rest of her clothes disappeared, leaving her rock-hard nipples pressed against his chest. Completely blindsided, she violently came all over his thrusting cock. Her body bucked and bowed as she screamed into his mouth. Harry finally broke the kiss and asked, “Where do you want me to cum?”

Suddenly feeling like a vixen, Bella pushed him off and rolled onto her belly. She arched her back and lifted her ass into the air. She wiggled it a few times before she felt her thick, warm prize spurt out and cover her upturned pussy. Another shot painted her ass white, and yet another streaked across her bare back. Bella giggled into her pillow when another hot load crisscrossed her back. She would have some very good memories of this room. Hopefully, she would keep them once she was changed.
