[The Twilight Saga·Carlyle] Hidden God

"Oh! Carlisle, my old friend!" Arrow looked at Carlisle with a surprised expression, "Marcus saw it.——It really surprised me."

"Yes, I chose him." Carlisle said softly.

Edmund was bewildered by their conversation. —He didn't know what Aro was surprised at, and he didn't know what Marcus saw either.

It seems that vampires are very good at charades. ——He thought so.

"However, what a wonderful fragrance... belongs to our unique singer! Saying this, I have to be proud of your achievements. - Even if we have lived for more than 3000 years, we cannot Restraint to that extent." Ah Luo said as if reciting a poem, "Although I really want to say—'This is a great waste', but you will definitely not agree with it?"

"Really not." Carlisle replied very simply with a smile.

"It's a pity...as a friend, I should congratulate you. But—the Volturi as an enforcer..." Aro laughed, then turned and sat on the wooden chair. ——The originally peaceful and peaceful atmosphere suddenly changed.The change was so obvious that the surrounding temperature dropped by more than ten degrees.Sensing this change, Edmund took a step back, no longer staring at Carlisle, but looking at the three vampires opposite with great vigilance.

"I think you should know our laws very well, Carlisle." Arrow paused. "It seems to me that you are not a person who is willing to defy the law."

"True. But—"

"According to our law, you all have to die." Caius, who had been sitting on the bench on the far right and had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke out. "unless--"

"I am willing to become a vampire! Carlisle promised me! He will transform me!" The boy clenched his fist and took a step forward, shouting loudly, "I haven't leaked anything about you so far, and I won't in the future." Yes!—believe me!"

"...He will become one of us." Carlisle reached out and touched Edmund's hair, signaling him to calm down, "As he said, when he is older, I will personally transform him. "

The atmosphere seemed to be frozen suddenly. ——Time passed by, and the boy became more and more nervous.He wondered how long it would be before the Volturi delivered his sentence, and how bad it was going to get.

The deathly silence made it almost impossible for Edmund to hold on. —if Carlisle hadn't been standing behind him and pinching his shoulders, he might have rushed up and asked the Volturi vampires what they wanted, yelling.

"If that's the case, there's no problem." Ah Luo shook his robe and stood up again. "But before that, I need verification, dear boy.—I want to know whether you have revealed our existence to others. Forgive me, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that this matter is serious, Very serious...can you give me your hand?"

Edmund looked up at Carlisle, and stretched out his hand after seeing that the other party nodded in agreement.

"My pleasure, sir."

Arrow "floated" over immediately, took the boy's hand quickly, and took half a minute (it seemed like half an hour to Edmund) before letting go.

"Hahahahaha! That's funny." Ro laughed, "'If you touch Carlisle I'll kill you.'—Look, Carlisle, he's just like a cute little wolf cub. And his The ears fit well."

Blushing, Edmund pulled the ears off his head and stuffed them into the inside pocket of his cloak. —He actually forgot to take off the wolf ears on his head before coming in!hateful!No wonder those vampires always looked at him with strange eyes. —He must have looked so stupid just now!

Carlisle put his hand on the boy's shoulder and looked at him with a tender expression.

"It seems that we are innocent, don't we?" Edmund said quickly. —He didn't want to stay in this dark and damp place any longer.

"Of course.—we look forward to your new life, Edmund Cullen." Arrow said in a strangely beautiful aria.

"Thank you, Luo." The boy nodded with satisfaction.

"Then let us put those heavy things aside for now.—Carlisle, will you stay here for a few days? Your old room remains."

"No, thank you." Carlisle said with a smile, "We have a flight booked for tomorrow morning. - Ed needs to go back to school the next morning... Then we can go? It's really getting late, Luo."

"Yes, yes." Ah Luo replied cheerfully, "but please come back next time, this boy is really interesting.——I would like to spend more time with him."

"We will visit you too," Caius said. "Be careful when you go back. ——The sun is very sunny recently. Don't be seen by humans."

All the while, Marcus sat, seemingly indifferent to anything.

Dmitry signaled Carlisle and Edmund to follow him and return the same way, as if the dark hole they had just passed was the only way out here.

When the bright night sky came into view, the boy suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. ——It felt as if someone had removed a big stone pressing on his chest, and even his breathing became smoother.

He can now live until the age of 18 without any pressure, and then think about becoming a vampire. ——This is a very good ending.

"Carlisle."

"Huh?" The blond vampire looked at him tenderly, his golden pupils rippled, and his beauty was suffocating.

"...No, it's nothing." Edmund, who was full of doubts and wanted to ask, suddenly laughed. ——He suddenly felt that as long as he could stay with his family, many things had become less important.Sometimes he can choose to let go of his curiosity, because Carlisle will always let him know all the information he should know.

The boy narrowed his blue cat eyes and yawned, then lowered his head and rested quietly on Carlisle's shoulder. "Carlisle, I'm sleepy, can I sleep?"

"Of course, my boy.—have a sweet dream."

——————————————————————————————————————————————————— —————————————————————————————————

After returning to Alaska, everything seemed to be back on track again.

Edmund returned to school after recuperating for half a year due to injury.

Gail was very happy, he followed the boy almost every day to ask him how he fought the brown bear, and he seemed to worship the latter as a superman.

Alexander still seized every possible opportunity to talk to Edmund, but after being called by Edward to have a conversation one day, he basically just looked at him from a distance with an aggrieved look. ——The boy especially wanted to know what happened between them.But he asked many times, Edward just refused to let go.Over time, he lost his curiosity.

Professor Kirk still doesn't like Edmund, and always tries to pick his thorns.But the latter didn't care about it. —He is still one of the top students in the school, even though his English grades are always between A (pass) and E (good).

His elder brother, Emmett Cullen, once bet Jasper that Edmund could only grow to 1.6 meters at most, but the other party grew as fast as a sapling after his 14th birthday. ——This makes the vampire brother always lament that mixed races are really a very wonderful race.

Rosalie, Alice and Esme still dote on Edmund very much. ——When the boy finally graduated from junior high school and stood in the living room wearing a somewhat baggy black academic uniform and Edward, the three ladies suddenly covered their mouths and sniffed their noses. It's like crying.

"Ed has really grown up." - Hearing these words, Edmund suddenly felt a sore nose.

The facts are just as Carlyle said.

Children always grow up very fast. ——A little inattentiveness, they will grow up.

"I feel that one second you can wear my coat as a nightgown, and the next second you have grown so tall." Carlisle folded his arms and looked quietly at the man who had almost grown to his shoulders The big boy who was the same height suddenly spoke like this. ——This blond vampire has lived for more than 300 years and has witnessed the lives of countless people.But when that "person" was replaced by his boy, he actually felt a kind of indescribable expectation and joy for the first time.

Edmund put a stack of thick books into the bookcase, turned his head to look at the still young and handsome blond vampire, and showed a slightly helpless smile, "You guys always like to say these things to me recently.— —Please, don’t make me feel like I’m getting old too quickly, okay?”

"You haven't fully grown up yet, how can you be called 'old'?"

"Believe me, you won't have such troubles.—Of course, I think to you, I'm still the little boy who grabbed your skirt and told you to stay with me, right?"

Carlisle smiled but didn't speak.

"Oh, that's right. Does Fox High School have pre-university courses?" Edmund touched his chin and began to think about whether he should take "Advanced Biology" when he moved. "No."

"Okay, no. ——But I still want to take it with me, just as a hobby." After that, I stuffed the thick book into the box.

"Ed."

"Ok?"

"You'll love it there." Carlisle stepped forward, reached out and stroked the boy's black hair, his voice was so gentle that it seemed to drip water.

"Yeah... because you're all here." Edmund closed his eyes, seeming to enjoy Carlisle's touch, "I told Gale yesterday that I was moving when I was out with him. — and he almost cried Come out. But finally let me go. Do you think I'll see him again?"

"He is a rare good friend." The implication is that there should be no more chances.

"...It's a pity." The boy understood the meaning of Carlisle's words.He sighed, and opened those beautiful eyes, the azure blue color inside shone like stars, "I only now understand why you asked me to seriously consider whether to become a vampire or not. "

Carlisle motioned for him to continue.

"But I still stick to my original decision." Edmund blinked happily, "I know what I want most. ——Life is fair, if you choose this, you will lose that. —— I don't regret it, really."

Carlisle chuckled, bowed his head slightly, and kissed the boy's smooth forehead. ——The latter blushed suddenly, and pushed the opponent away reflexively.

"Ed—"

"Hey!—Why are you suddenly talking about those profound truths? A child has to act like a child, you know?"—Emmett's laughing voice came up from downstairs, interrupting Carlisle Words about to be blurted out.

"Bastard, Emmett!!!" Edmund gritted his teeth, realizing that he was being despised, "You better find a place to hide before I go downstairs!!! Otherwise, I will definitely shave your hair off with scissors! !!"

After that, he rushed out of the room.

"Ed." Carlisle grabbed his arm.

"Huh? What's wrong?" the boy asked suspiciously.

"Be careful, don't hurt yourself."

Edmund grinned, revealing two rows of white and neat teeth, "I obey, my dear Mr. Cullen."

☆, Extra Story (2)

The author has something to say: This is a cute side story~~~ (5000 words is not small at all!!!), the background is a story after Edmund was adopted by Carlisle Moon, please eat~~~

The communication group for this article is 233333333. ——I will send a reminder on the group after each update [-]

If time could be turned back, Edmund would never touch the lighter on the windowsill.But it's too late to say anything now.

The boy swears that at first he was just bored and wanted to identify whether the root carvings hanging in his study were made of rosewood roots.But it has been placed for too long, and the aroma on it has faded to the point where it cannot be discerned.So he had to find other more effective ways.

"Can an open flame be used for identification? — After lighting it and blowing it out, there will be a fragrant smell?" Edmund sat on his small sofa with a thick book in his arms and paused word by word. reciting.

The boy stroked his chin, turned his head to look at the silver-gray lighter on the windowsill, then immediately jumped off the bed and ran into the study with it in his arms.

So things became like this...

Edmund looked at the "crackling" root carving, his legs went limp, and he almost fell down on the floor.

It's different from the one in the book! ! !Why can't he blow it out after lighting it up! ! !The more you blow the fire, the bigger it is! ! !It's already burning! ! !

How to do? !

Or... let it burn first, and call the police by yourself?

When the police came, the whole study room would be gone! ! ! ——Get water to put out the fire first, right? ! !

The boy patted himself on the cheek, then immediately opened the door and ran to the bathroom at the end of the corridor.

But when he came back with the pot, the whole root carving had been burnt. ——In just a dozen seconds, the orange flames had already climbed up the light green curtain, and the room was almost occupied by black smoke intertwined with the smell of burnt burnt and sandalwood, which looked very scary .

Edmund was dumbfounded. ——He is a 12-year-old kid who has never even used the stove a few times. How could he have the opportunity to see such a huge lethal accident as a fire?

Realizing that he could no longer extinguish the fire with his meager ability, the boy was trembling with fright at the scene before him, and seemed to have lost his ability to think. —he almost forgot that he should have called the fire truck.

If Carlisle hadn't happened to leave work early, the house would have been reduced to ashes.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————— —————————————————————————————————

Vampire doctor Carlisle Cullen finally finished all his work by five o'clock in the afternoon.He was in town buying some crispy browned toast and a bottle of blueberry jam for the boys before he turned the road to Pace's house in his handsome black Mercedes convertible.

Since he adopted Edmund, the other party has become very attached to him (although the boy has been denying this).Every day, when Carlisle had just parked the car in front of the house, Edmund would happily run out of the hall and welcome his parents home like a small bomb (which always gave Carlisle a sense of "adoption"). a puppy", but he loves being thrown into the arms of one of his boys).Well, so today should be no exception.

But before the old house appeared within the sight of the vampire, a strong smell of burnt food grabbed his attention.

What is burning?Why does it smell a little like sandalwood and polyester?

Carlisle stepped on the accelerator and turned several corners quickly. ——An old house that was smoking appeared in front of him.

At that moment, Carlisle felt that a string in his head snapped with a snap. —Edmund is still in it!He could smell the other party's blood!

Carlisle quickly stopped the car and ran to the yard, and arrived at the "scene of the crime" billowing with smoke without much effort. ——he tore off the burning curtain and threw it on the smooth marble floor, then took off his windbreaker and wrapped it around the boy who was clinging to the water basin and was almost choked unconscious by the smoke , hugging each other, jumped out from the window on the second floor, and landed lightly on the grass...

It turns out that Carlisle is actually more useful than a fire truck.

After the handsome blond vampire moved Edmund safely, he put out the fire in the study in less than 10 seconds, and then called Alice who was hunting outside, asking her to help when she came back Renovate the Pace family's old house.

Then it's time to teach that arsonist a lesson.

Carlisle threw the phone on the coffee table, reached out and lifted the boy with a broken face out of the corner of the living room, and hugged his legs.

"What's going on? Huh? Why did the study suddenly catch fire?"

"...I'm sorry, I did it." Edmund's voice was so small that he could barely hear it. ——He licked his lips, raised his little face that was blackened by the smoke, and looked so regretful that he wanted to die directly.

"Do you think firefighting is fun, Edmund Cullen?"

"No! I swear I never thought about it that way!" The boy grabbed Carlisle's sleeve and stared at his blue cat eyes, "I know you can't just play with fire! What happened today was purely accidental! I just... ...I just want to know if the root carvings at home are made of rosewood... Cough, my lung capacity is too small, so I can't blow it out..."

Edmund sniffled, tilted his head and carefully observed Carlisle's expression. ——The other party was so angry that the pupils that were as sweet as honey seemed to have turned into black inorganic glass beads, and a metallic cold light flashed every time the boy said a word.

very scary! —This is no ordinary Carlisle!

Edmund whimpered and wanted to run away reflexively.But when he was about to be "safe", Carlisle would stretch out his hands and clasp his waist, then pull him back and put him on his legs.

"Edmund Cullen."

The boy shook violently.

"Do you want to taste what it's like to be spanked by a vampire?"

Edmund immediately shook his head like a mad drum.

"Tell me, Edmund." Carlisle pressed his hand on the other's soft buttocks, and said with a straight face, "Is fire fun?"

"...One, it's not fun at all!!! Fire is too dangerous!!! I dare not touch fire again!!!" The boy shouted almost hysterically, "Carlisle, I was wrong, I will Don't dare, don't be angry, okay?"

The blond vampire narrowed his beautiful eyes, curled his five fingers and squeezed the flesh on the opponent's ass slightly. ——Expressed my feelings at this time very well.Well, I can't wait to push this guy to the ground and beat him up.

"Carlisle... I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again.—Forgive me, please!" Edmund immediately reached out and cupped his parents' cheeks, trying hard to remove the tears in his eyes Tears forced back. ——He almost cried out from the pinch just now, if it happened again, he really couldn't guarantee whether he could continue to sit in class tomorrow.

But the always clever boy didn't notice that the reason Carlisle was really angry was not because he played with fire and burned down the study.

So that night, such a scene appeared in the vampire villa near the Jinlunga Mountains.

"Carlisle, please." The blue-eyed boy who had no time to wash his face followed Carlisle around the villa like a little tail that couldn't be shaken off. ——When Carlisle was sitting in the living room talking to Jasper, he was sitting next to him, poking his fingers at the vampire's shoulder, trying to annoy his sense of existence; when Carlisle went to the basement to sort out the information When it comes to time, it’s like a puppy showing its master, wagging its tail and handing things to the other party...

When Edmund chased Carlisle through the living room and accidentally "snapped" on the marble floor, almost unable to get up in pain, the vampires in the family felt that they couldn't stand it anymore up.

"Little guy, are you okay? Are you serious?" Emmett squatted beside the boy, trying to reach out to help his little brother up. "It was a really loud fall."

"Leave him alone, Emmett." Carlisle turned his head and dropped such a sentence, then disappeared in an instant, returned to his study and slammed the door behind him. —— Both Emmett and Jasper's eyes widened, showing a look of seeing a ghost.

Edmund, who was treated like this for the first time, twitched his slightly sore nose, lay down on the floor, buried his head in his arms, and whimpered for a long time before successfully forcing back all the tears.

"Oh, my God, Ed.——What did you do? Why is Carlisle so angry?" Emmett carefully picked up the aggrieved boy from the ground and gently placed him on the sofa.

"...I set fire to the study." Edmund mumbled.

"That's all?" Emmett and Jasper exchanged glances, "Carlisle is so angry?"

The boy covered his face.

"Did you apologize?"

"Apologize."

So why is Carlisle doing this?

At this time, the three people very much hope that Edward can be here.But the other party is currently hunting in a certain forest, and it is estimated that he will not come back for a while.

"...I'm going to stand for punishment."

"What?" Jasper asked suspiciously.

"I'm going out to stop. I'll stop whenever Carlisle forgives me." Edmund deliberately raised the volume when he said this, as if he wanted Carlisle to hear him.

"Hey! You really don't have to!"

The boy patted the dust off himself, opened the sliding door of the living room and ran out.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————— —————————————————————————————————

"If you ignore him, he will really stand outside all day." Emmett said seriously while standing in front of Carlisle's desk. ——He is really the first two big ones now... That little bastard Edmund is so stubborn that he and Jasper can't persuade him no matter how hard he tries to persuade him.Fortunately, Edward came back early, the big vampire brother hit the boy on the back of the neck with a knife without saying a word, threw him into the bathtub, washed him, and stuffed him under the bed.

Jasper and Emmett wouldn't dare to do that. —they might break Edmund's neck straight away.

"I know." Carlisle said, frowning, "That's why I called Edward back."

"Why don't you come by yourself? Ed ​​just burned the study, not himself."

"He almost burned himself to death." Carlisle stood up from the chair and closed the book as thick as a dictionary on the desk with a bang, looking a little upset, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Emmett sighed. —he now finally knew exactly what Carlisle was angry about.

It's nothing more than the boy's stupid behavior. ——"No, I lit the fire. Even if you die, you must put out the fire." This is indeed in line with Edmund's way of thinking.At that time, he was only concerned about taking on his own responsibilities, and he didn't think about whether he had the ability at all.In the end, he almost took his own life in it.

Carlisle was angry not because the boy had gotten into trouble, but because the boy had put himself in danger so easily.

However, without realizing what was really wrong, Edmund was still threatening Carlisle with his own health as a bet. ——"Go out and stand for punishment, I will stop whenever Carlisle forgives me."

This kind of behavior is just stupid in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is different in Carlisle's view. ——He feels that boys don't cherish themselves until now, whether it's psychologically or physically... The combination of these two points has caused this vampire, who has always been as warm as water, to rush at each other in front of the other two sons Got angry.

It made Emmett's hairs stand on end when he thought of Carlisle's expression at that time.

"Cough... Fortunately, you arrived in time..."

"What if I didn't leave work early yesterday?"

If you don't leave work early...

Edmund would probably be burned to death, and the police who received the call would call Carlisle to claim the boy's charred body...

Emmett felt that she couldn't imagine how Carlisle would react if he saw Edmund's body.Especially... when the other party died miserably. (Note: Sustained severe burns may cause the pain to reach the highest level of 10, so burning to death is one of the most painful ways to die.)

The brown-haired vampire looked at the pieces of purple sand thrown into the trash can by his parents. ——If he is not mistaken, it should be Carlisle's favorite pen holder. It seems to be a gift from one of his friends. It is said to have a history of nearly 400 years.And now, Carlisle broke it somehow, and threw them into the trash without even trying to fix them.

So, no matter what happened, the saddest person was Carlisle.

"I'm going to see if Ed is awake. It's best to bring him here to make a mistake." Emmett stood in front of the desk for a while, and was stopped by the vampire's parents just as he was about to leave the room.

"No need, Emmett. Let Ed get some sleep." Carlisle sat on the couch and waved his hands. "He must be exhausted."

"Oh...Okay. Then I'll go out first." Emmett shrugged and stretched out his hand to open the door.

In the next second, there was a sound of "Hey", and a little fluffy guy rolled in from the outside. ——The two vampires immediately exchanged a surprised look... Both of them didn't even notice that Edmund was right outside the door.

Actually the boy woke up two hours ago. ——Although he knew that the person who stuffed him into the bed was not Carlisle, he was still very happy.

Edward must have been called back by Carlisle. —he knew it.

So, when he learned from Edward what Carlisle was thinking, he immediately jumped off the bed, wanting to apologize to his parents.

But Carlisle seems to be very busy now?What are he and Emmett talking about?

Edmund was lying on the heavy wooden door like a thief, but before he heard any useful information, the door of the study was flung back.

The boy shook his dizzy head from the fall, quickly got up from the carpet and straightened his clothes, and stared at Carlisle expectantly with his eyes that were as bright as sapphires.

Emmett sensibly closed the door quietly and left.

"...Come here." Carlisle rubbed his temples. —he found himself lost to Edmund's shining eyes.Really, it's just a human child, don't you want to be so cute?

Edmund, who received the call, immediately jumped over with joy, and then obediently knelt down beside the blond vampire.

Carlisle reached out to grab the boy's armpit, and effortlessly picked him up and placed him on his lap.

Edmund hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Carlisle's collar tightly.

"Does it hurt?" Carlisle's eyes fell on the boy's lap. ——Edmund really fell hard last night, he could hear the groaning of the opponent's kneecap several meters away.

"It doesn't hurt." The boy shook his legs cautiously, straightened up and grabbed the vampire's cold fingers that fell on his pants, "Carlisle, Edward told me everything."

The handsome blond vampire nodded slightly, indicating that he was listening.

"I'm sorry...can you forgive me?" Edmund muttered with his head tilted, "Although I don't understand why your focus is different from that of ordinary parents...well, I didn't think so deeply...I really thought You are angry because I got into a big disaster."

Carlisle moved over the boy's shoulder, and pinched the boy's soft cheek with his slender and cold fingers.

"Sometimes I think I've spoiled you, Ed..." The "young" parent wrapped his little son in his arms and said with a sigh, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have treated you that way yesterday. you."

"It's okay!" Edmund wrapped his arms around Carlisle's neck in embarrassment, his cheeks flushed a little, "Well—can we make up? Like before?"

"Do I have any other choice?" Carlisle shrugged helplessly, "If I don't agree, will you still stand outside all night?"

"Hmm - I don't think so." The boy rolled his eyes, and brought his face up, tightly against the other's cold neck. "I will choose to burn your study directly."

Carlisle let out a muffled laugh, held Edmund's cheek and kissed it.

"I surrender, dear little arsonist of the Cullens."

☆, Extra Story (3)

"Animals can improve people's mood and bring people joy. Ms. Francis, a parenting expert, believes that pets really help children develop love, learn to communicate, and enhance their sense of responsibility. ——For relatively lonely children, pets are their Best friends are also recipients and sharers of secrets. They make children more lively, innocent, and carefree."

When these words came out on the TV, Emmett turned her head to look at the blue-eyed boy who was sitting on the carpet with a cushion in his arms and was reading "Das Kapital", and then showed a sympathetic look.

A 13-year-old child is already holding a dictionary and a computer and trying to understand "Das Kapital". —Is there anything more tragic than this?

Emmett scratches her hair, thinking of when she was 13. ——Probably...just play.

[It's not good to go on like this. ] - Emmett thought. ——【Edmund will become a little old man. 】

Coincidentally, Carlisle opened the door at this time. ——But the boy who was concentrating on reading didn't realize this, he was still holding that jerky and difficult theory book and trying hard to figure out the sentences above.

So the great surgeon Carlisle Cullen, for the first time in history, did not receive a hug from Edmund today, so he seemed a little disappointed.

He hung his coat on the hanger, said hello to Emmett, and then quickly crossed the living room and picked up the little guy who was reading under his arm.

The boy exclaimed, as if he was quite frightened by Carlisle's sneak attack.

"What are you looking at?"
