Summary: She didn't know when it truly started or why, neither did he but for once in his life Finn felt right in the dreams of the young woman, accepted. Now all he needed was to be undaggered.

Chapter Thirty

Bella finally calm looked up at her mate in astonishment and lifted her palm to cup his cheek, smiling as he leant down for her to do so. "How? How are you here? How did you find me?"

"My brother released me when the others were searching for you." Finn started. "How I got here… You pulled me here like you always do, our souls are intertwined Little Swan."

A soft laugh escaped her lips before movement in the corner of her eye caught her attention, a gasp escaped her lips as she saw the wolves limping and hurt. Flickers of what happened formed in her head of what happened once Edward pulled her out of the cottage, and she locked eyes on her mate.

"Shit Sam!" Bella cursed as she rushed over to his side, her hands pressing down on the leg that Toby had just reset for him and closed her eyes. She had learned small minor healing spells for herself growing up but she knew the major ones as well and let her power seep into his skin and bone, aiding the rapid healing to take away the pain and shortening the already short pain.

Sam sighed in relief but placed his hand over hers as he felt her power trail up his leg to reach all his other aches and pains. "Bella, you need to rest."

"No, I need to…" Bella started only to stop as Toby shook his head and took her hand in his own.

"He's right Isabella, you have been locked away in a dampening house, pulled Finn to you and let the core of your magic take over. You may not feel it, but you will in a little while, you need to rest and let your magic recover.

With a sigh, she nodded and stepped back and into her mate's arms "Very well."

Leif sighed in relief and focused his attention on his descendant, noting the bruises on her skin and the slight bruising on her hands. "Are you okay Isabella? Did he do anything to you?"

Finn let out a rumbling snarl as the colour began to seep back into his vision and bit into his wrist and holding it up for his mate to drink, only relaxing as she began to drink from him. She was safe then, all ailments would be washed away with his blood and if something were to happen then she would live… even if she would suffer from the loss of her powers…

Once done Bella shook her head and gave her mate a reassuring smile. "He never really touched me beyond what you saw, tried to threaten me and intimidate me but… he is but a mere child. I am well, what happened to the other Cullen's?"

"They're dead." Leif stated firmly, "suffered for their sins, the only one who survived was the Major and that was because Peter asked it of me."

"Okay, how are you here Finn?" Bella asked her mate. "Well, not here here but as in awake?"

Finn smiled and ran his finger down his mate's cheek. "Your meddling had proved to be a success my Little Swan, my brother awoke me when your friends Coven contacted his mage and found out who you were. They should be here within the hour if they keep running, but it will not just be Klaus and Sage but a few others too. We woke Kol when we discovered you were being held within a Dampening house."

"Kol is awake as well?" Leif asked with raised brows and hummed as Finn nodded. "Then this will prove to be interesting."

Bella paused and frowned as she felt the shift in the air, followed by a howl. The wolves and the vampires all looked up in alarm and concern, only for Sam to sigh harshly and look to Paul and Jared. "You'll need to deal with this, I can't change yet not till my leg heals. I was not expecting a wolf so soon."

"Do you know who it is?" Bella asked.

Sam sighed and struggled to get to his feet, thanking the vampire who helped him up. "Embry Call, which is concerning because as far as we knew he was not of a direct bloodline, his mother is Makah."

"One of the Coven can easily find out who he is related to if needed," Leif stated before Bella could open her mouth. "Let one of my people take you back they will need to be informed that Bella is safe and Charlie will need to be told as well."

"What have you told my father?" Bella asked in alarm.

"We had Sue ring your father and state that you've been really sick and in quarantine down in La Push. With the help of the Coven we've been able to make one of them Illusion as you to show you've been sick as we can't compel him." Leif explained before ducking into a crouch along with the others as thundering footsteps came within hearing distance.

"It's just us!" Sage called out loudly as she heard the warning snarl from Finn.

Within a moment there were even more people surrounding them all and Bella could not help but blink in surprise as she stared at her stepfather. "Phil?"

"Well hey there Bells," Phil laughed out with a slight wheeze as he tried to catch his breath. "Glad to see you well and sane."

"I didn't think they'd call you…?" Bella stated confused as her eyes drifted over those that now arrived, taking in Sage and Peter along with Klaus, the Witch she contacted and whom she guessed was Kol. Phil snorted and held up his hand, needing not say more.

Kol took the small slip of a woman in and then the damage around them and couldn't help but be impressed, she was indeed powerful and if this was what she managed to do when released from a power dampening house then she was controlled as well.

"I am pleased to see that you are whole." Kol stated as he moved forwards, "I'm Kol, pleased to meet you…?"

"Bella," she introduced while placing a calming hand on her mate as Kol took her other hand within his own and kissed her knuckles. "I am glad to meet you as well and whole?"

"When witches get cut off from their power it sends them insane, the power backlash once reconnecting usually is more… devastating and some tend to… explode." Kol explained while ignoring the sharp inhales or snarls about that withheld information.

Finn snarled, "it was nearly close. Her magic core was exposed. She changes the seasons at a rapid pace as well as forming and destroying the cold one in a blink of an eye. If Sam was not able to reach her then I and all who stand here would be dead!"

"Calm Finn," Bella soothed, her hand reaching up to trail along the veins of his eyes and jaw. Many who knew Finn watched in amazement as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath and calmed under her touch. "I am well. Now. There is still much to be done and you and Kol need to be caught up properly… I need to sleep and eat, not in that order and preferably not smell like a cold one."

"Yes, we can make our way back to La Push, you will need to speak with the elders and let the Coven look you over," Leif stated and eyed the others who were about to interrupt.

"I also need to speak with Klaus without you all listening in. Finn may stay, but you all need to leave." Bella insisted firmly.

"Can this not wait till you are rested?" Leif asked and sighed as she shook her head. "Very well, we shall meet you all at Sam and Emily's.

Bella waited and held up her hand for the Witch to wait with them, he will be needed as she could not do this herself right this moment. She could feel the drain begin and hoped that she would not be asleep for long but this needed to be done now.

"I first must apologise for the agony I would have caused you." She started, holding up her hand when the witch began to speak. "I do not like to force my thoughts upon others and I did it without permission when I knew it would hurt but it was necessary, now I need you to do me a favour."

Maddox nodded and moved forward when she beckoned, feeling a little better as Klaus shadowed him. "anything."

Nodding Bella grabbed his hand and let a small bit of her magic wash over him, fuelling his own for what needed to be done. "I have given you the knowledge of what you need to do. I refuse to let those others hold onto what is rightfully Klaus's."

Maddox felt his eyes widen as the words whispered across his mind and with a nod, he quickly closed his eyes and focused. He could feel his hands warming as he cupped them, his lips moving and repeating every word in a soft whisper, and with one sharp tug, he felt the moonstone resting heavily in his hands.

Klaus inhaled sharply as Maddox turned and held out the moonstone with a proud bewildered smile. "How… why?"

"What your mother did to you was unfair and I find it abhorrent that she had done it and that others are holding the keys to your freedom over you. I know the pain you feel and have been feeling each full moon and I cannot stand by it anymore." Bella stated firmly. "I will gladly help you break this curse but you will have to do a favour for me."

"Anything." Klaus was not a stupid man, he would give this witch anything if she were to help him.

"You need to make amends with Finn and Kol. Not just for the daggering but for everything and Finn must do the same as well. That is all I ask." She stated and all three men looked at her in bewilderment, though Finn should not be surprised at all by the kindness in his Mate's heart, nor the look of utter bloodthirst that laid under it.

"Also, for you to make hybrids you will need to let the manipulative doppelgänger human live, her blood is the key for them to live. I don't want Phil to suffer the change at each full moon." She continued as she began to walk back towards La Push.

Klaus looked at Finn as he tucked the moonstone away. "Your mate is something else."

"I agree brother," Finn replied with a smile. "She truly is a rare gem."

"I have no qualms about your deal, but the others may not see…" Klaus stopped as Bella turned her head and looked at him with a smirk and fire within her eyes.

"They will agree, in the end. Now… Finn… I need food and sleep. We can discuss more later but now let's head back." Bella supplied and within a blink she was secured safely in her mates' arms.

Maddox watched them leave as he faced his employer. "She could move mountains, literally, if she wished."

"I have no doubt about it. Mystic Falls won't know what hit it when she arrives and I cannot wait to see it."
