new moon
I knew we were both in mortal danger.
Still, in that instant, I felt well. Whole.
I could feel my heart racing in my chest,
the blood pulsing hot and fast through my veins again.
My lungs filled deep with the sweet scent that came off his skin. It was lie
there had never been any hole in my chest.
I was perfect—not healed, but as if
there had never been a wound in the first place.

fast enough…But this was no dream, and unlike the nightmare, I wasn’t running
for my life; I was racing to save something infinitely more precious. My own
life meant little to me today.

When the Cullens, including her beloved Edward, leave Forks rather than risk
revealing that they are vampires, it is almost too much for eighteen-year-old
