Ficlet | Edward was alone in the meadow, thinking of Bella — worrying about her and whether she was safe — and wishing he’d insisted on going with her to visit her mother (she was a newborn after all). When he smelt dog through the trees, he knew it was Jacob watching him. While the mutt had always kept close tabs on his movements, the ‘dogging’ had been particularly intense since Bella left with their child. He entered the clearing and went up to where Edward lay. Edward felt angry at the intrusion onto his and Bella’s almost sacred place. But Jacob’s thoughts stopped him from lashing out. They were warm and tender and filled with longing, but it wasn’t a longing for Renesmee. And then Jacob was kissing him. As much as Edward knew he should push away, having those hot lips pressed against his cold flesh it dawned on him who Jacob was: a person with a soul who he could lose control with — with whom his passion would not need to feel bounded by a fear of hurting someone — and it made him long in return, long to lose himself in a kiss in the meadow.

Notes | With a warm, breakable and blood-filled Bella — which let’s face it, is what Edward really wants — Edward can never lose control. But with Jacob, no matter how rough the passion gets, he’ll heal in no time — that’s the ‘nature of the beast’, so to speak. This is the first of a series of Edward/Jacob manips set post-Breaking Dawn that tell a ‘what if’ story. What if Jacob imprinted on Edward, and what if, after Bella becomes a vampire, Edward realises that what he loved about her died when she did. You’ll notice that these are non-explicit images, a change I thought suited the romance of the story I want to tell (but never fear, vivid consummation of their love is a promise). While this story will be very difficult for Edward, I consider Edward’s desire for Bella to have always been instinctual (it was the scent of her blood that obsessed him, without it she’s just another pale, soulless vampire), before he smelt her, she did not interest him (except via her ability to block his abilities). As per Jacob imprinting on Renesmee, what can I say, it was a puppy infatuation (and a bit ridiculous anyway).

If you’re visiting from one of these communities and you’d like to see more of my manips, comment on my friends only entry, but be warned, much of my work is sexually explicit.
