"Charlie what are you doing?" She spoke in his direction quietly but stern.

"You know, I gave you plenty of time to come to me on your own and you refused. So I took my own action. Even if you do not wish to stay with me, you are going to at least talk to me." Charlie's tone was normal and pulled her in the direction of his cruiser. She tried to resist him and pull away but she couldn't. She helplessly looked over at Edward who swallowed hard, but didn't move.

"Edward…" She cried to him, scared and not understanding why he was just standing there.

He clenched his teeth and fist as he looked in the direction of the other officers and back at her. His body trembled with fury and pain at her cry for help and his mind raced for an escape plan. He had to shut his eyes for a moment and bite his lip to keep control of himself. He wanted nothing more than to go to her, to rip her away from his grasp and run away, but he couldn't. He forced himself to not take that action and as a result he was being punished with hurting Bella for the first time. The look of pain and rejection on her face as she was forced into Charlie's car broke his heart. No matter how much he hated himself right then he knew it was the best choice he could make. His fear from that night of her being taken away from him had come true. Was keeping his family's secret really that important right then? he thought.

If he had tried to fight off Charlie and steal Bella away from his hold. He could easily come to his home and take her from there the same way and he knew Carlisle would let her go. Not because he believed it was best for her, but knew they had no say in it when it came to the law. If the other officers had not been watching him like a hawk he may of gotten away with something other than this, but there were too many witnesses.

Bella still struggled with Charlie even if Edward was not going to help. Going with him alone was the last thing she wanted to do.
