章 57: Chapter 53
AN: The last chap was a mess. Sorry. I know. 😂 I guess writing while exhausted doesn't work for me like it does others.
At least we had more Emmett scenes, right?
And for those who just caught up with the latest chapters and the emotional chaps are still free with yah... Gomen 🙏🥺
~~
ROBIN'S POV
Ooook... To be honest, I was too distracted with my thoughts, that I failed to sense the bear, so I feel a bit guilty about this situation, but on the other hand, I realized that this is a great opportunity to gauge Emmett's thoughts and feelings...
I observed the two men that will either be the newest couple in the family or another heartbreak story to be added to our book. I really hope for the former.
"That was a close call, you're still injured you know..." Isaac got close to Emmett and held his left hand with his right, and his right cheek with his left. " if you wanted to go into the woods, you could've told me, I would've gone with you, it's too dangerous for you right now. Are you hurt? " Isaac added while looking at Emmett's body all over.
Emmett, the still not-so-robust with muscles human, but still big enough to be called macho man, blushed like a high school teen in love... Mind you, not a boy high school teen, but a girl, a maiden. Damn, really giving off the bottom energy there my soon-to-be brother. I guess it works out for them if he's the bottom for now, because at least it's safer for them to have sex that way, if Edward could do it in the canon, I believe my boy Isaac could too. I trained him for nothing.
[AN: it's a little weird that you've been training him to be able to have safe sex. 😅]
What? You aren't pro-safe sex? Are you the type to hate on that? Yah know that's why there's a lot of documentation, stories of humans dying after having intimate relations with vampires right? The vampires couldn't control their instincts. I could definitely calm them down, but do I have to be in their bed while they do the deed too? Nuh-uh. Pass. That's why safe sex between vampires and humans 101 it is. That means I need to plan for Edward and Bella's future, I'm gonna search for other hybrids, maybe the ones Alice brought in the future.
It might be cruel of me because there's a 95% chance that Renesmee won't be born after I interfere, but I won't take chances. I say 95% because I get what being in love is like, and my brother by then would have been waiting for Bella for a long long time, the training I've put him through, brainwa- uhhh education... and Bella was portrayed as a thirsty eager younger woman... So there's a chance they won't be able to hold themselves, and I'm not sure if by then, we would've developed condoms for vampires, one that doesn't break easily.
[AN: Edward and Bella having the VampirexHuman SexEd 101 Hetero edition 😂]
"I'm fine, a little bruised from falling, but that's all... You, you fought with the bear... You killed it with your bare hands..." Emmett said, taking Isaac's bloody hands and inspecting them, trying to see if there were any injuries at all, then he looked at his face, and reached out to the corners of my best friend's lips and chin, trying to wipe out the remnants of blood from feeding on the bear.
There wasn't any fear on Emmett's face, he was worried at first, I think... I guess for Isaac. But then his expression changed, he blushed and kept blushing like he was excited. More like, turned on.
Isaac grinned at Emmett and held the hand that reached out to clean his face and pressed it against his cheek, then moved his head a little to place a chaste kiss on Emmett's hand. The two kept staring at each other, lost in their own world, seemingly forgetting their very single friend on the side. ME.
Hey! That's my move! You freaking used my move, I know it's very effective, but maaaaaan!
[AN: Oi, that's not patented to you! 🙄]
JUST ADMIT that you have so little imagination and Rizz that you only have these few moves that you keep recycling, can't you be more imaginative, get out and date, or something! Get experience you damn mage!
[AN: oi oi oi you ungrateful creation of mine! I'll have you know I have plenty of... What the fuck are you making me say! 🤬]
I rolled my eyes at the sky and decided to be the bad guy in this situation for now, I have an idea for what I can do for now. I like Emmett, and I'm almost sure that things will work out for them, but the keyword here is almost, as you all already know, this is an AU, so we can't be too sure now if the Emmett in this world would also love being a vampire or would not betray us. The probability of him betraying our trust is next to zero, but just in case. I have to make sure, setting aside me and my family, I have to look out for my bestie.
I coughed once to get their attention. And they didn't catch it. So I coughed again... They still ignored me. These bast-... Wooo breathe... Patience Robin, don't let your jealousy get to you... I decided to change method and clapped my hands loudly a couple of times, and this time, it seemed to have snapped them out of their little pink bubble.
[AN: I did a quick and shallow search for 'Does a mute person's cough have sound?' and it does apparently. 🤔]
Isaac clicked his tongue at me and gave me a look that says °Bitch, what the fuck? Are you. For real?°, I just rolled my eyes and sneered at him. I'm doing this for you, ungrateful B.
*Sorry to burst your bubble, but we need to focus on something first* I shifted my gaze at Emmett and gave him a friendly smile before casting my gaze back to my best friend.
*We need to test him now, it's the perfect time to gauge his resolve and feelings for you.*
"He seems ok with it, we could just-"
*Stop, I know what you're trying to say. And I can see that too... But you know what happened with me and Rosalie... It seemed all good before it crashed and burned... So please let me do this* I looked at him with a pleading expression. Asking for him to understand.
"What are you even gonna do? Please don't hurt him." Isaac asked.
Emmett, hearing and seeing our exchange had this confused look, and hearing Isaac's last statement, he suddenly had a trace of fear in his eyes, not at Isaac, but me.
Tsk, that stung a bit, but I'll fix the misunderstanding later. For now...
*I will use my gift... A song... You love theatrics, right? You can help me with this one, to drive the emotion into him. I won't compel him, so fix that expression of yours, I quite like him for you, us, and our family, so you don't have to worry, I won't hurt your mate, I give you my word. I beat you up, but that's at training... I love you, and I won't hurt you like THAT. Ok? Don't answer me out loud, just nod slightly, and follow my cues* I said while giving him a reassuring smile.
My expression then changed... I was still smiling, it was still as beautiful as ever, but the sparkle of life and warmth in my eyes dimmed and turned sinister and distrustful towards the young human, who now flinched after seeing her change, the little bit of fear for me that I saw earlier, now turned into full bloom. Emmett then subconsciously stepped back but then turned to Isaac to ask for help, but he could only be disappointed, for when he saw Isaac's expression while looking at him, it only showed helplessness, like he was saying that he couldn't do anything about me and what I'm about to do.
I swear I'll make it up to you later Emmett. We just have to get this out of the way, and then we're golden. I do hope we get a positive result. I can see that he already feels strongly for Isaac, and that's a good sign.
Music started to play... The melody came out of nowhere startling the poor human boy who was now a bit pale while grabbing onto his unofficial lover.

THIRD PERSON POV
Robin standing at the center, her voice dripping with allure as she begins to sing. Isaac leads Emmett to a seat nearby, a wicked glint in his eyes as they prepare to ensnare him in their theatrics.
A melody started to echo throughout the forest, giving a sinsiter and haunting feeling...
The lone human present amongst the three individuals in the depths of the forest, now experiencing goosebumps all over his body, cold sweat flowing...
=Pinky Promise Song by Jake Daniels=
🎶Wake up, I can't feel a thing,
I wonder if this is a dream.
Look over, I hear a scream,
I wonder if that was for me.🎶
Isaac prowls around Emmett, his movements predatory and calculated, as if he's luring him into a trap. Emmett's pulse quickens as he feels the intensity of their gaze upon him.
🎶Voices inside of my head,
Please get out.
Okay, let's see what's outside of my house,
Carousel horses and kids all about.
What are they singing? It isn't too loud.🎶
Isaac whispers in Emmett's ear, his words enticing yet ominous, as if offering forbidden knowledge. Emmett's heart races with a mixture of fear and fascination.
🎶Pinky promise,
That you'll keep all of your secrets locked away,
In Lucifer's locket,
Will give you the key and you won't say a thing🎶
Isaac's touch on Emmett's shoulder is possessive, a silent command to obey. Emmett's mind swirls with confusion, unsure of whether to resist or surrender to the allure of the darkness surrounding them.
🎶Pinky promise,
That all of our sins will be treated the same,
In Lucifer's locket,
To open the front or he might escape.🎶
Isaac circles Emmett, his gaze intense and hypnotic, as if daring him to defy them. Emmett trembles under the weight of their gaze, torn between the allure of the unknown and the safety of the world he once knew.
🎶Pinky promise,
That you'll keep all of your secrets locked away,
In Lucifer's locket,
Will give you the key and you won't say a thing.
Pinky promise,
Blood on my shirt and my hands
I can't remember where I am
Is this the same dream that I had?
Oh no, here we go, not again🎶
In the shadowy depths of the forest, where Robin stands amidst the ancient trees, her voice echoing through the mist. Isaac leads Emmett further into the darkness, the tangled underbrush whispering secrets of its own.
🎶Blood on my shirt and my hands,
I can't remember where I am.
Is this the same dream that I had?
Oh no, here we go, not again.🎶
As Robin's voice fills the forest, the trees seem to sway in time with the haunting melody, casting eerie shadows that dance across Emmett's face. He feels a shiver run down his spine, a primal fear stirring within him.
🎶Simulation got me going insane,
Is this all real or is it in my brain?
Please, someone wake me, I swear I'll behave.
Here come the kids,
Can you hear what they're saying?🎶
Isaac's hand rests reassuringly on Emmett's shoulder, his touch a grounding force in the midst of the swirling confusion. Emmett's senses reel as he struggles to make sense of the surreal situation that's happening to him.
🎶Pinky promise,
That you'll keep all of your secrets locked away,
In Lucifer's locket,
Will give you the key and you won't say a thing.🎶
As Robin's voice rises to a crescendo, the forest seems to pulse with a dark energy, as if responding to the promises being made. Emmett's heart races as he feels the weight of their words pressing down upon him.
🎶Pinky Promise,
That all of our sins will be treated the same,
In Lucifer's locket,
To open the front or he might escape.🎶
With each promise, Emmett feels himself being drawn deeper into the heart of the forest, where secrets lie hidden beneath the ancient moss and twisted roots. He hesitates, unsure if he dares to venture further into the darkness.
🎶Pinky Promise,
That you'll keep all your secrets locked away,
In Lucifer's locket,
Will give you the key and you won't say a thing.
Pinky promise... 🎶
As the final notes of the song fade away, Emmett stands at the edge of the forest, his mind spinning with uncertainty. He knows he must make a choice, but the consequences of his decision weigh heavy on his soul.

ROBIN'S POV
I saw it... And for sure, Isaac saw it too... Emmett wavered... But he isn't 100% sure if he wants this. I was anxious, WE were anxious now...the memory of my heartbreak, the feeling of not being chosen by my mate. Ugh... I don't want my friend to experience it, but we had to do this...
Using my gift on him to let him experience or feel how sinister this path can be, and let him feel and see what he means and does to Isaac all at the same time. He just needs to decide...
I see my friend looking at his dazed mate... Worried, anxious for whatever Emmett's decision would be... And Emmett woke up from his dazed state and looked at us.
His face was blank... But there was a glint of conflict in his eyes.
I cast an apologetic gaze towards him, which he returned with an understanding one. He then focused his gaze on Isaac.
"I love you. I have no idea how and why that happened, but I figured that you might have an idea why. I might not be the brightest, nor have I been in love before so I can't say for sure, but based on what I've heard, watched, and read, it isn't like this... Unless it's a fairy tale, it isn't like this... It's not normal... " Emmett said with his brows furrowed.
My heart felt like it was being stabbed when I saw my friend's expression when he heard what Emmett said, he was hurt, very hurt right now, fearful of his mate's next words... It's starting to sound like he's going to be rejected... Fuck...
"That's what I thought earlier... But, you know the funny thing is, I don't seem to care... I love the feeling of falling in love with you... But right now, after experiencing all that. I have many things to consider. I have next to no knowledge about what you are... And what I'll get myself into... So... " Emmett reached out to Isaac's hand and looked up straight into his eyes with a determined look."Tell me, show me, teach me everything, so I can make a decision that I won't regret... Regardless of the outcome, I won't utter a word to anyone about your secrets, I will take it to my grave"
His words brought smiles to me and Isaac. I guess there's still a chance.
