Another reason could be a different interpretation of the characters' personalities. The writer might think that in the original, the idea of them being mates was too forced. So, by making Bella not Edward's mate, they can develop the characters in a way that they believe is more true to their individual natures, perhaps showing that Bella has different values or desires that don't align with being Edward's mate.
One possible reason could be that Edward believes Charlie is a threat to Bella in some way that Charlie doesn't realize himself. Maybe Charlie unknowingly gets involved with some dangerous elements, and Edward, with his vampire senses, detects it.
One possible reason could be that Edward has some internal conflict. Maybe he has a strong sense of self - control and believes that getting involved with Bella in that way goes against his principles. He might be worried about the consequences it could have on Bella's life or his own existence as a vampire.
One possible reason could be that Edward has some internal moral code. He might believe that acting on Bella's seduction goes against his principles, perhaps related to his view on relationships or self - control.
It could be a werewolf. In the Twilight universe, werewolves and vampires often have a complex relationship with humans. A werewolf might have been Bella's real mate, perhaps one that she met briefly before Edward entered the picture. Maybe this werewolf had a special connection with Bella that was disrupted when Edward came along.
One possible reason could be that Bella discovers a different side of Jasper that she finds more appealing. Maybe Jasper shows a deeper understanding of her in some aspects that Edward lacks. For example, Jasper's past experiences might make him more empathetic towards Bella's own struggles in a way that Edward, with his own set of vampire characteristics, doesn't quite get.
One possible reason could be that he suddenly realizes he's putting Bella in too much danger. In the Twilight universe, Bella's life is constantly at risk because of Edward's vampire world. Maybe in the fanfiction, he decides at the last minute that he can't bear to see her hurt because of him.
Perhaps she has her own vision of their relationship and doesn't want it to be influenced by the often - strange and varying ideas in fanfiction. Fanfiction can be full of outlandish concepts that she doesn't want to be part of. She wants to preserve the unique and special nature of her relationship with Edward as it is in real life.
One reason could be a shift in the story's setting. If the fanfiction is set in a different time or place, Bella's values and interests might change, leading her to not like Edward. For instance, if it's a modern - day setting with different social norms, she may find Edward's old - fashioned ways off - putting.
Another plot twist could be that Bella herself realizes she has made a mistake in choosing Edward over her'real mate'. She might start having dreams or visions of a different future with her real mate. This could lead to a lot of internal conflict for her as she has to decide whether to stay with Edward or go back to the one she was meant to be with.
One reason could be the allure of the vampire - human relationship in both the Twilight and Vampire Chronicles universes. Writers might want to combine the two to see how Bella's experience with vampires like Edward in Twilight could translate to a relationship with Lestat.
