Riley yelled and
lunged, but was blocked by Edward’s sword. They danced and fought for a long
time, never tiring, never slowing. Twilight had begun to fall on the meadow,
making it hard to see. I was in pain, my head pounding and my leg numb. In the
shadows, I saw someone approach us. Edward was fighting near me, blocking me
from Riley’s parries. I noticed Rosalie, her hands holding a crossbow, aiming
right at Edward’s heart. I pushed myself up and hobbled, stopping in front of
him. “NO!” I screamed as the arrow shot off. A searing pain went through my
chest and I fell back against Edward. He gasped, catching me and cradling me as
I fell. I heard a roar and a blaze of fire. Riley’s head landed near my hand,
his eyes now back to the muddy brown they were when he was human.
“Bella, no, Bella,”
Edward sobbed as he held me. He went to remove the arrow that was in my
chest.
“Don’t touch it,” said
Carlisle as he knelt next to me. “It’ll kill you.”
“Like it’s killing
her? Carlisle, it went through her left ventricle,” Edward sobbed, clutching me
to his body.
The man who stood at
the head of the legion, crouched on the other side. “Her sacrifice will be
noted,” he said, his voice deep and resonant.
“Sacrifice?” Edward
growled. “She saved me, Gabriel. She should not be a sacrifice!”
“Edward,” I whispered,
weakly reaching for him.
“My love, I’m here,”
he said, caressing my cheeks. “I love you. Don’t leave me.”
“I love you …” I breathed, inhaling deeply and my eyes fluttering shut.
