Jevian's POV

It was exactly three days since the little girls were born. I'd spent all the time that I could with them. I watched them sleep and play. Every time they smiled, I could see my wife in them. I was anxious to see the new Savannah. She was no longer a human. She was a vampire. I had to rush out of the room where the twins slept, when I heard Bella laughing contently. I could hear their muffled voices, because my ears were only attuned to the soft, silvery bell-like voice of her. I could hear her and my heart wanted to leap out of my chest and run to her. I hurried out of the room, to the corridor and then down the stair case to reach her. I felt my chest rising and falling, as I looked at her. She was beautiful! Breathtakingly beautiful. I didn't know how I could love someone so much. I took a few steps closer to her and before I knew it, I was wrapped in her cold arms. Savannah joyously laughed and spun me around.

"You are so light," she giggled. Her voice was like the summer breeze, blowing quietly through the meadow. It was soothing and I basked in the calming sensation that it left in my soul.

"Savannah," I said, when she put me down. It was my turn to hold her in my arms. Today our life began together. Our eternity took place in that instant. I touched her face and slowly cupped her cheek in one hand. My eyes never left hers. I didn't mind that her eyes were crimson red. I knew that she would soon understand that we didn't hurt humans. Someday those beautiful eyes that had once been green, would turn topaz. "You are here," I said, my voice low and husky. "You are here with me, love."

She nodded and bit her lower lip. "I'm here, Jevian. I'm here for you."

"I know," I said, our foreheads touching. "Are you hungry?"

"I'm thirsty," she whispered, an impish smile on her lips. "I'm so thirsty."

"I can help you remedy that," Alice said, as she hopped in her spot. "Come on! Let's all go hunting."

"What about the girls?" I asked, turning my attention to the Cullens. They all stood near the living room, surrounding us.

"Yeah," Savannah said worriedly. "What about my children? What did we have?"

"Two li-" I began, but Alice had to finish my sentence.

"Two little girls. They are gorgeous. I mean, I want them for me, but Jevian threatened to kill me if I took them. They are so adorable. You just want to stare at them all day!"

"Are they beautiful?" Savannah asked contently. "Can I see them? Do they know who I am?"

"They are beautiful," Esme said softly, as she walked to where Savannah stood and took her hand in hers. "They are miniature replicas of you, Savannah. They have the same eyes as you did when you were human."

"I want to see them!" Savannah exclaimed.

Emmett and Rosalie exchanged looks. I knew that they were worried for our daughters' welfare, but deep down I knew that Savannah would never hurt them. She couldn't! Those little girls were our lives and I doubt that she would jeopardize them.

"I won't hurt them," Savannah said hurt. "I just want to see them." She said, her voice barely a whispered.

"I can bring them," Jasper said, walking behind Alice and touching her shoulders gently. "I can keep an eye on you. Newborns are strong and only care about their thirst."

"I wasn't like that," Bella protested.

"You have always been the exception." He smiled at Bella.

"I can also keep an eye on you," Rosalie said. "You did assign me to protect them, right?"

"Yes," Savannah said, nodding her head. "I don't mind. I just want to see them. I would feel much better if you guys were there to keep them safe from me. I don't want to hurt them..."

"OK," Alice said, hoping happily. "Jazz, Rose, bring the girls. They are going to enjoy meeting their mother, right, Edward?"

"Yes," Edward nodded and tightened his hold on Bella's waist. "They will certainly enjoy meeting their mother,"

Everything happened so fast. I was staring at Savannah, afraid that she might lose control and attack Rose or Emmett for being so cautious with the girls. They were acting like our daughters' body guard, barely giving Savannah room to greet her daughters. Rosalie found it hard to hand Ary, her favorite of the twins, to her mother when Savannah asked to hold our little girl.

"Ary giggles a lot," Alice sighed, as she sat on the arm rest of Savannah's chair and reached for Ary's forehead. "She's precious, isn't she? She's a biter, but isn't venomous. I think that she is going to be a flirtatious little girl when she grows up." she grinned.

"Oh, god, these little girls are so smart. They follow me with their eyes and they know who I am!" Savannah said surprised. Ary clutched at Savannah's finger and giggled, showing her perfect dentition. "She has teeth? Why do they have teeth?"

"They have the vampire gene," Emmett shrugged. "Ary prefers blood over human food and Gianna doesn't care, as long as she is fed, she's happy."

"Gianna has teeth too," Bella said, as she took Gianna from Emmett's arms. She slowly walked towards Savannah and bounced the baby in her arms. "This is little Ms. Pensive. All she does is analyze things. Her mind is a great canvas, where we can build upon. She's so creative . There is so much raw potential in her. I think she's going to be a writer or a poet"

"How do you know?" Savannah asked curiously. "Can she talk?"

"No, not yet," Carlisle said, sitting next to his son Edward. "Edward can hear their thoughts. Gianna's brain is developing at an outstanding rate. Both girls are above normal, but Gianna can process more information than her twin sister. The vampire gene in them has accelerated their development. If my estimates are correct, they should reach maturity at the age of eleven or twelve years old."

"But, is Leslie Ary going to develop mentally like her sister?" Savannah sighed, as she took Gianna from Bella's arms. Carlisle chuckled and nodded.

"Ary is smart too, except that she only likes to be happy," he said, waving at the little girls. Savannah sighed and squeezed our daughters gently. Both little girls seemed comfortable in their mother's lap. Gianna smiled for the first time, as she reached up her tiny arms and touched Savannah's face.

"I love you so much," Savannah cooed, kissing both little girls on their forehead. "Jevian, can you take them?"

"What's wrong?" I asked worriedly, as I took the girls from their mother's arm. "Are you alright?"

"I have to-"

"Let's go and hunt," Edward suggested. "There will be plenty of time to talk."

"Yes, please," Savannah said sadly, as she got up from the chair. She touched the little girls' head and turned to Edward. "Let's go fast!"

It didn't take Savannah that much time to learn to hunt. Little by little, Savannah got used to her new life. It was as if she was born a vampire. She was slowly blending in with the crowd again. Her self-control and willpower was amazing. Even Jasper was surprised. He said that he'd only seen that kind of self-control in Bella and he thought that he would never see it again. Edward told us that it was due to the love and adoration that Savannah felt for our daughters and me. He said that her constant worry for our wellbeing was another factor in helping Savannah not hurt other humans.

It had been a few months since the girls were born. We were living in the outskirts of Washington, near the Oregon border, a few miles away from the Cullens. Our lives were always content. I was too overjoyed to complain about my life. Everything was perfect. The girls were getting a bit bigger and were already walking. They loved me with all their heart, but it was obvious that they preferred their mother. Wherever Savannah went, they would flock after her like baby chicks. It was a beautiful sight to see. Gianna was always bringing Savannah flowers from our backyard and Ary was always biting her sister. I don't know what was wrong with my little girl. Gianna would smack her sister's hand and then hug her, when Ary would begin to cry. I had to laugh, because there was nothing more joyous than seeing our little miracles growing into beautiful girls.

"I love you," Ary said. She was the first one to speak. Savannah almost jumped, startled when she heard our little girl speak. It was summer and we were strolling down the deserted beach when it happened.

"She loves you and I love you!" Gianna giggled, reaching for Savannah's hand. The girls had grown rapidly in the past few months and were now piecing words together to make conversation with the adults that surrounded them. They were beautiful. Too beautiful to describe. Savannah's mother and sister came to visit us. Benedict and Byron fell in love with their cousins. Byron was more overprotective of the two brothers. He didn't let anyone get close to them. It was great to see how my little girls were accepted by their family. The only thing that pained me was that Savannah's father didn't want to have anything to do with us. He had renounced to his daughter. She was no longer accepted as his daughter. I knew these things hurt Savannah, but she continued to smile and become a dedicated mother.

"They love me," Savannah said, kneeling in front of our daughters. She hugged them and carried them. I took Ary from her hands and placed her on my shoulders. We continued walking down the seashore, talking about our future. That same night, we returned to the house and found Jasper and Alice in our living room, watching television. There were shopping bags near the staircase. Alice followed my line of vision and giggled.

"I couldn't help it! I saw many cute dresses and I had to buy them all!" she shrieked. "OK, it's time for the happy couple to spend some time alone," Alice said, clapping her hands. I placed Ary on the floor and she ran to hug Jasper. Alice looked at her and shook her head. "She's going to be a handful, isn't she?"

"I don't know," Savannah shrugged, handing Gianna to Alice. "You tell me, you are the one that can see the future,"

"I can tell you without seeing the future that she will, Alice," I laughed.

We left the girls with Alice and Jasper and went hunting. It was dark when we decided to stop by a brook. I sat on a large boulder and Savannah danced under the starlit sky. I watched her in amazement. I had never seen her look as beautiful as she did that night. The light of the moon shone on her face, making my heart beat ten thousand times faster. I hopped off the boulder and slowly made my way to her.

"Jevian," she said, extending her arms to me.

"Savy," I said, walking into her arms.

"I am so in love with you," she said dreamingly. "Why don't we move to South America?" Savannah said. "The girls are getting too big and the neighbors are noticing. Washington brings too many sad memories and I want to move on. I want us to create our own future."

"Why South America?" I asked confused. "We could easily move to another part of the world, angel."

"I like to live closer to your parents. We barely get to see them and they still haven't met the girls. I was thinking that we could move to Brazil," she said, pulling me closer. She wound her arms around my neck and pressed her chest closer to mine. "It's the place where my parents first met. It has a history."

"Why do you want to go there? Wouldn't it make you sadder to be in a place that holds so much history?"

"I just want to live somewhere far away from here, away from everyone. Just for a while. I want to live in Brazil. I want us to create our own history, with our daughters." she said dejected. "Mom can always come and visit us whenever she wants. Leslie and Brady are always welcome into our life." She said, resting her head on my shoulder. "But, my father isn't. He made it clear that he doesn't want to have anything to do with me, us, our family. If he can't accept my daughters or you, then I can't forgive him."

"He'll come around," I mumbled against her neck. "Everything will be alright,"

"So," she paused, as she sensually licked her lips. "Can we move?"

"Whatever you want," I said, bending my head to kiss her lips. It was amazing the way our bodies reacted together. Our lips were in sync as they merged together. Her tongue prodded inside my mouth, exploring it gently. I wrapped my arms tighter around her small waist, pulling her to me. It was amazing how much I loved her and would forever love her. I couldn't imagine that I'd lived a life without her. I thanked destiny that I met her. A life without her wasn't living. Being beside her was indescribable.

"I can't believe that you are mine," Savannah whispered next to my ear. "You are mine and I'm never letting you go."

"I don't want you to let me go," I said, peppering her face with kisses. "Never let me go, please," I begged, holding her tighter to me.

"And to think that you loved my sister," she scoffed.

"I did," I nodded. "But not the way that I love you. Leslie Alexis was the person that gave me hope and taught me to fight for happiness. Through her, I saw the world brighter and more vibrant. I watched from the sidelines, as she lived her life, as she grew into a beautiful woman and took on the role of sister, wife, mother and confidant to her husband and children. I saw everything that made her happy. I won't deny that she was and is an important person in my life. With all honesty, angel, if it wasn't for her, I would not have met you."

"Liar," she laughed.

"I'm not lying. If it wasn't for her, I would've never met the love of my life…"

"Who's the love of your life?" she asked teasingly.

I kissed her nose and chuckled. "You! You made me appreciate life. Thanks to you, I learned to take a dive into the unknown, because I know that the end result will always be a good one as long as you're next to me, Savannah. You make life livable. You are the fire that keeps my heart alive."

"Wow, so sappy. I knew that you would be mine, Jay. It did take you long to realize that you loved me, didn't it, Mr. Claramount?"

"Yes, it took almost seventeen years to find you and to love you, Savannah, but I did find you."

"That's a beautiful ending to our story," she said, kissing me gently.

I nodded. "Yes, and this is how the story of Jevian Gustavo Jose Claramount, ends. He met such a magnificent and breathtaking person that has loves me him, even when he considered himself impossible to love. You loved me with all my flaws and insecurities, Savannah. Thank you!"

"You don't have to thank me," she whispered. "I was destined to be with you. I'm just glad that I met someone like you. The love of my life!"

Not all stories end with happy endings, but mine did.
