anxiously in all my mirrors; but there was never any sign of the silver car。 
His car was not in front of the house; either; though that meant little。 
“Bella?” Charlie called when I opened the front door。 
“Hey; Dad。” 
I found him in the living room; in front of the TV。 
“So; how was your day?” 
“Good;” I said。 Might as well tell him everything — he’d hear it from Billy soon enough。 Besides; it would 
make him happy。 “They didn’t need me at work; so I went down to La Push。” 
There wasn’t enough surprise in his face。 Billy had already talked to him。 
“How’s Jacob?” Charlie asked; attempting to sound indifferent。 
“Good;” I said; just as casual。 
“You get over to the Webers’?” 
“Yep。 We got all her announcements addressed。” 
“That’s nice。” Charlie smiled a wide smile。 He was strangely focused; considering that there was a game 
on。 “I’m glad you spent some time with your friends today。” 
“Me; too。” 
I ambled toward the kitchen; looking for busy work。 Unfortunately; Charlie had already cleaned up his 
lunch。 I stood there for a few minutes; staring at the bright patch of light the sun made on the floor。 But I knew 
I couldn’t delay this forever。 
“I’m going to go study;” I announced glumly as I headed up the stairs。 
“See you later;” Charlie called after me。 
If I survive; I thought to myself。 
I shut my bedroom door carefully before I turned to face my room。 
Of course he was there。 He stood against the wall across from me; in the shadow beside the open 
window。 His face was hard and his posture tense。 He glared at me wordlessly。 
I cringed; waiting for the torrent; but it didn’t e。 He just continued to glare; possibly too angry to 
speak。 
“Hi;” I finally said。 
His face could have been carved from stone。 I counted to a hundred in my head; but there was no change。 
“Er 。 。 。 so; I’m still alive;” I began。 
A growl rumbled low in his chest; but his expression didn’t change。 
“No harm done;” I insisted with a shrug。 
He moved。 His eyes closed; and he pinched the bridge of his nose between the fingers of his right hand。 
“Bella;” he whispered。 “Do you have any idea how close I came to crossing the line today? To breaking 
the treaty and ing after you? Do you know what that would have meant?” 
I gasped and his eyes opened。 They were as cold and hard as night。 
“You can’t!” I said too loudly。 I worked to modulate the volume of my voice so Charlie wouldn’t hear; 
but I wanted to shout the words。 “Edward; they’d use any excuse for a fight。 They’d love that。 You can’t ever 
break the rules!” 
“Maybe they aren’t the only ones who would enjoy a fight。” 
“Don’t you start;” I snapped。 “You made the treaty — you stick to it。” 
“If he’d hurt you —” 
“Enough!” I cut him off。 “There’s nothing to worry about。 Jacob isn’t dangerous。” 
“Bella。” He rolled his eyes。 “You aren’t exactly the best judge of what is or isn’t dangerous。” 
“I know I don’t have to worry about Jake。 And neither do you。” 
He ground his teeth together。 His hands were balled up in fists at his sides。 He was still standing against the 

wall; and I hated the space between us。 
I took a deep breath; and crossed the room。 He didn’t move when I wrapped my arms around him。 Next 
to the warmth of the last of the afternoon sun streaming through the window; his skin felt especially icy。 He 
seemed like ice; too; frozen the way he was。 
“I’m sorry I made you anxious;” I muttered。 
He sighed; and relaxed a little。 His arms wound around my waist。 
“Anxious is a bit of an understatement;” he murmured。 “It was a very long day。” 
“You weren’t supposed to know about it;” I reminded him。 “I thought you’d be hunting longer。” 
I looked up at his face; at his defensive eyes; I hadn’t noticed in the stress of the moment; but they were 
too dark。 The rings under them were deep purple。 I frowned in disapproval。 
“When Alice saw you disappear; I came back;” he explained。 
“You shouldn’t have done that。 Now you’ll have to go away again。” My frown intensified。 
“I can wait。” 
“That’s ridiculous。 I mean; I know she couldn’t see me with Jacob; but you should have known —” 
“But I didn’t;” he broke in。 “And you can’t expect me to let you —” 
“Oh; yes; I can;” I interrupted him。 “That’s exactly what I expect —” 
“This won’t happen again。” 
“That’s right! Because you’re not going to overreact next time。” 
“Because there isn’t going to be a next time。” 
“I understand when you have to leave; even if I don’t like it —” 
“That’s not the same。 I’m not risking my life。” 
“Neither am I。” 
“Werewolves constitute a risk。” 
“I disagree。” 
“I’m not negotiating this; Bella。” 
“Neither am I。” 
His hands were in fists again。 I could feel them against my back。 
The words popped out thoughtlessly。 “Is this really just about my safety?” 
“What do you mean?” he demanded。 
“You aren’t 。 。 。” Angela’s theory seemed sillier now than before。 It was hard to finish the thought。 “I 
mean; you know better than to be jealous; right?” 
He raised one eyebrow。 “Do I?” 
“Be serious。” 
“Easily — there’s nothing remotely humorous about this。” 
I frowned suspiciously。 “Or 。 。 。 is this something else altogether? Some vampiresandwerewolvesare 
alwaysenemies nonsense? Is this just a testosteronefueled —” 
His eyes blazed。 “This is only about you。 All I care is that you’re safe。” 
The black fire in his eyes was impossible to doubt。 
“Okay;” I sighed。 “I believe that。 But I want you to know something — when it es to all this enemies 
nonsense; I’m out。 I am a neutral country。 I am Switzerland。 I refuse to be affected by territorial disputes 
between mythical creatures。 Jacob is family。 You are 。 。 。 well; not exactly the love of my life; because I expect 
to love you for much longer than that。 The love of my existence。 I don’t care who’s a werewolf and who’s a 
vampire。 If Angela turns out to be a witch; she can join the party; too。” 
He stared at me silently through narrowed eyes。 
“Switzerland;” I repeated again for emphasis。 
He frowned at me; and then sighe
