As always reviews get a teaser for next chapter

More blood dripped onto the floor before I lifted my hand and pressed it to my nose. My eye was already swelled shut, but fortunately I had finally stopped spitting blood out of my mouth. It was deja vu all over again except this time I wasnt hiding my stomach from the blows, and then holding it from the intense pain.

There was still screaming and beggin for him to stop, this time it was just my life I was afraid for not the life of my unborn son.

Before I couldnt care less if I made it as long as he did.

Now hes already gone.

"You really think Jacob loves you" He spat. The conversation seemed to be on repeat from last time too, only this time it wasnt a surprise to him.

I didnt answer him "Your only easy pussy to him Bella, thats all you were the second you opened your legs for him. He never cared about that child. I did him a fucking favor he should be here thanking me. I bet he's out fucking the next hoe right now not having a second thought about you"

I was sobbing. Not because he was right, because he was the farthest thing from it I knew Jake loved me, I knew our baby ment the world to him, and I also knew he was on his way here now. No I was crying because I was terrified of the man in front of me. The man that only a week ago beat me so bad I lost my baby right here in this same living room, and now im curled up in the same corner worried that im next to die.

"Your wrong" I croaked out my voice hoarse from screaming and crying.

He knelt down in front of me so we were eye level and smiled "I love you Bella, I have since we were fourteen, you were mine then and your still mine now. You will be till the day you die." I noticed he said I die not We die. He tried to reach out at touch my face but I pulled away.

"Im not yours, I havent been for five years! Leave -" I was cut off by the back of his hand smacking me hard across my face. So hard that my head slammed into the wall.

"You are mine Isabella, you always have and you always will be, if anyone trys to get in the way of that I will kill them like I did that piece of shit child of yours" he sneered.

The front door slammed open letting the afternoon sun pour in, Jacob standing on the other side with a hand wrapped around a baseball bat. It took him all of two seconds to locate us on the floor before the stormed in and grabbed the crazy man in front of me. Jacob picked him up with no effort and threw him into the wall, picture frames fell, windows rattled, and drywall crumbled. If smoke could really come from peoples ears the house would be full from the amount coming from Jacob.

The man wasnt even able to speak before Jacob picked him up again and tossed him back into the same wall, he looked like a rag doll. "That was my family" Jacob's voice boomed, and that was all he said as he lifted up the bat and brought it down with a sickening crunch. The curled up man cried in pain. Three more times the bat came down, each time accompanied by a crack.

"Jake" I groaned out in pain he stopped immediately and looked at me "I love you" a look of understanding crossed his face. We both knew was going to happen, I knew the moment I text him telling him I was in trouble. The man had no chance against Jacob.

"I love you too Bells, and I love Seth, well all be together again one day" I answered him with a nod lifted my middle finger to my lips, kissed it, and reached it out toward Jacob. Something we had done for years now. He returned the gestured, but the crippled man groaned and broke our trance.

The body on the floor shifted and a pain filled grunt echoed off the walls. He struggled to take his last breaths before the bat came crashing down, connecting with his unrecognizable face with a final crack. A scream vibrated through the house, and then everything was quiet again.

It only took a few minutes for the police to come and take Jacob away. He didnt struggle, the cops didnt fight. They knew. Everyone knew. A life for a life, a childs life, and though no one questioned why Jacob did what he did the truth of the matter was that James was laying dead on the floor. Now Jacob's life was taken. An endless cycle of a life for a life for a life.
