POV Seraphina

I couldn't deny that it was all quite a lot at once, but I didn't want to abandon or push Jasper away from myself.
We were destined to find each other and to complete each other.
I had never felt so safe and secure with anyone.
He exuded trust and since he was a vampire the headquarters wouldn't have much of a problem with that as long as I got my jobs done.

I also hoped that Micah and Aaron would get along well with the Cullens. There were some parallels and even though Aaron was as stubborn as a donkey I was sure he would warm up to them too. 
All of this would only take a little time.

Carlisle offered me to stay a little longer, not knowing how Jasper would react to the sudden separation.
He tensed immediately as Carlisle spoke of a breakup and he seemed to suppress a dark growl as he glared daggers at him deviously.
His arm wrapped around my waist possessively and he held me close to his chest to make sure I didn't disappear.

I agreed a little reluctantly, which elicited a satisfied growl from Jasper.
His grip loosened a bit but he didn't let go of my waist. Satisfied, he pressed his nose into my hair and seemed to focus on my scent again.
However, I didn't really realize I was going to be staying in Jasper's room until after he quickly took me to his room and then went off to hunt.

Jasper assured me he'd be back as soon as possible, so I had some time to myself before I could question him about the whole thing himself.

Even my things were already in his room and a pleasant tingling spread through me at the thought that he really wanted me to be with him.
I hadn't even been in a relationship before. Mainly because I hadn't been interested in anyone and the many missions had kept me busy, so I didn't have much time. 
Aaron probably had something to do with it too, as he tried to scare everyone off as best he could, but since I wasn't interested anyway, it mostly just amused me.

Now that Jasper stepped into my picture, everything changed. I felt things I'd never felt before and I wondered if that's the reason why I was never interested in others because Jasper was meant for me and no one else.
Aaron would probably just shake his head at this point and label me as mental, but it just felt like I'd been waiting for him my whole life, like my heart knew about him before I even met him.

Lost in thought, I sat on Jasper's bed while staring out the window and admiring the beautiful scenery, even though it was quite dark.
The sun was just about to disappear behind the treetops and the moon was already approaching. 
I was offered an almost magical view that I casually noticed.

My thoughts were of course with Jasper, who had been able to feel my emotions lately.
I wasn't exactly sure why he was so clingy at the moment, given that he was able to keep his distance at school.
I didn't mind though as I enjoyed his closeness too I just wanted to know what the reason was. 
School would resume on Monday and if I understood Carlisle correctly, Jasper would have to hold back a lot. We only had a few classes together and he won't ne able to be near me all the time.

Thoughtfully, I slowly opened the door of his room and made my way to Carlisle to get a little more information.
It was very quiet in the house and I could only hear the noises I made myself. 
It seemed as if almost everyone had gone out hunting.
What was it like to be a vampire? 
Not being able to sleep, not being able to eat real food, only being able to drink blood. I wasn't sure if that would be something for me.

I started to make my way into the living room and Esme looked up from a book she appeared to be reading.
Her soft hair fell gently over her right shoulder and a motherly smile was on her lips.
We hadn't spoken much to each other, but she seemed extremely likeable to me.
"Seraphina are you alright?", she asked softly putting the book on the table.

"A little much information for today and yet I still have so many questions", I smiled shyly and she motioned for me to sit next to her.
"Maybe I can answer some of your questions", she explained to me and I thankfully sat down next to her.
For a moment I thought about how exactly I could approach the topic correctly, but quickly found a suitable question.

"Jasper... he's so clingy? Not that it's bad, but is that normal?", I asked her thoughtfully, a gentle smile curling her lips.
My knowledge of vampires wasn't the greatest and I really hoped that she could give me a better insight.

"Jasper had a difficult past. He suffered a lot and was almost convinced he would never find you. I think he is very attached to you and his biggest fear is losing you", she began to explain and I listened to her spellbound, "Jasper is therefore different from the rest of us, but that's something he'll have to tell you himself. Every vampire reacts a little differently and since Jasper can now feel your emotions, that makes him a lot more sensitive than others, do you understand?"

I nodded to her understandably and had to think of my crystallite, which was now lying in Jasper's room.
"Would it be better if I wore my crystal again?", I asked uncertainly, looking at Esme who seemed to be thinking.
"I think Jasper needs the reassurance of your emotions. Ever since he saw you, he's been frustrated that he couldn't feel your emotions. He's very reliant on his gift and I know he may feel like he doesn't deserve you, because of his past, even if he doesn't show it openly", she finally concluded.

'Jasper's past' kept popping up in sentences over and over again and I was dying to know why he had suffered so badly. An image formed in my mind of Jasper suffering and the thought almost broke me.
It pained me a little to hear that from so many.

Out of nowhere Jasper suddenly stood in front of me in the living room and his now bright golden eyes regarded me with caution.
"Phina is everything alright?", Jasper suddenly asked, now sitting next to me and looking at me with concern.
Of course, he knew immediately how I felt, now that he could finally use his gift.
I quickly pushed away the negative emotions and thoughts surrounding Jasper's past and instead focused on his presence, which seemed to calm me.

"Everything is fine Jasper, I just had a few questions and Esme was kind enough to give me some answers", I assured him and seemed to have convinced him with my statement as his charming smile immediately returned to his face.
His cooling hand gently cupped my hand and he pulled me away from the couch to follow him.

"I wanted to apologize again for earlier, I wasn't quite in control, I hope I didn't scare you with that?", he asked softly and ran his thumb apologetically over the back of my hand.
We were already on the second floor and I could see the door of his room.

He slowly pulled me back into his room and when he had closed the door he gave me a slightly questioning look.
"I was just a little surprised, that's all", I assured him honestly and he gently spun me around once as if we were dancing until I bumped against the edge of the bed and was now sitting.

He leaned down and hesitantly gave me a soft kiss, which I immediately returned.
His blond hair tickled my skin and I closed my eyes glad that Jasper was with me again.
My heart started beating faster and suddenly an enormous wave of pleasure rolled over me, making me gasp.
Was that Jasper?

His emotions were so strong that I didn't even know how he could have felt it all the time and still stay away from me.

Jasper immediately seized the opportunity and slipped his tongue into my mouth.
He braced himself on the bed next to me and I clawed my hands into his honey blonde curls, which I tugged lightly.
His hair was so soft and it just felt so right.

A deep growl escaped his throat and when we broke apart again, I looked into almost jetblack eyes that looked at me lovingly.
"Oh darling, I've been waiting for you for so long", he breathed at me and this time I knew what he meant.
"I'll never let you go again, you're mine now", he went on and another surge of pleasure rolled over me, causing me to quickly clench my legs.

POV Jasper

I could finally feel her emotions and my undead heart skipped a beat as I could feel love and affection as she gazed at me.
Her blonde hair was still in a ponytail and her pupils were slightly dilated as if I were a drug to her. She pressed her legs together and immediately I smelled the gentle note of arousal emanating from her.
Of course, that didn't go unnoticed by the Major and my other side slowly gained the upper hand.

Ever since we kissed I wasn't myself anymore and I hoped that Seraphina wouldn't judge me for it, after all he was a part of me, even if I often wished that it had all passed me by.
However, I couldn't change my past and had to tell her about it one way or another.

After Maria's cheating, 'the Major', as the others called him, stayed with me and only appeared every now and then.
But after I met Seraphina, he was constantly keen to have her around.
Often I had to hold him back, trying to reassure him that the time would come and now that Seraphina knew my secret, there was no reason to push the Major back as we both had the same goal; to keep Seraphina with us and protect her.

Of course, my beauty couldn't have known about the whole thing, but I was sure she would find out soon enough.
The Major would do anything to make himself heard if I decided to keep edging him out, and I knew from experience that I couldn't stand up to him.

Her body reacted so perfectly to my touch and I already knew that I couldn't hold back anymore. I really wanted to feel her and show her how much she meant to me, that I loved her.
