Mid Week Sneak Peek - H&D Chapter 26

Happy belated Wednesday! :)

Hide and Drink was featured on the "Twific Pimps" pod cast. Listen to it here or download for free! :) I wasn't involved at all, but I really got kick out of listening to it. Warning - if you aren't up to date through chapter 24, there will be spoilers if you listen.

Pod Cast

Question for you all, since it seems to be a theme in Chapter 25 reviews. What would happen if Edward turned Bella at this point? Leave a comment with your theory! :)

And here's your teaser....

“I need to be with Bella.” I raised my head and looked into his red eyes.

Aro tilted his head to one side.

I know how you feel about her, Edward. I have been inside your mind and I know how deeply you care for her. It’s one of the reasons I want you to consider staying.

“What do you mean?”

You know, because the thoughts are your own. You promised not to hurt her again, and her pain is your salvation.

“I can’t hurt her.”

Even if you do not drink from her, you will harm her.

“She shouldn’t have to be with me,” I said quietly. “Not the way I am.”

You would be a burden to her.

  1. This teaser seems to indicate that Aro is lying to Edward about being addicted to her blood - the last line says it all. Aro is willing to say or do anything to have Edward's gifts under his control. That being the case, maybe turning Bella would be Edward's salvation. He would have his lifelong mate & perhaps that is what he truly needs. The unfortunate reality is that Edward will cease to exist when Bella dies unless she is turned. I'm dying to read Carlisle's perspective on this. Is he buying what Aro is selling. Edward is too vunerable right now to know.

  2. I think it would be a great thing if bella was turned at this point. I kinda don't want her to be older than him.

  3. I wish I had a real formed opinion about this! But I just don't! It would help to know exactly what the hell is going through Bella's head about all this.. Has she even thought about becoming a vampire? What does she really think of what's going on with Edward? She obviously cares for him, but is it in a way that you care and worry about anyone that is TOTALLY dependent on you? Or is she just as in love as he is? That would help me answer that question a little better... Because if he turned her, but she didn't want it, would he do it against her wishes? I would say he would never do that at this point, but I'm not that confident about it....we are talking about crazy Eddie here...he isn't the most predictable person/vampire...
    So many questions!!!
    And most importantly...how will he feel about her vampire breasts? They won't be nearly as soft and warm...

    Wow...I kinda ranted a little...

    I heart you Ms Savage. And I heart Crazy Eddie too.

  4. From this sneak peak, I think Aro lied to Edward about his addiction to Bella's blood. I think he wants to keep Edward with him. I hope Bella will be turned to a vampire and save Edward. Is that possible? Love your story so much.

  5. ARGH! Fraking Aro! Those last few lines of the teaser just made me hurt for poor Edward. Aro is so obviously manipulating Edward's vulnerability.

    After the last chapter, I wonder if by drinking and turning Bella if his madness would be "cured". Must reread ch 25 and think about his dilemma.

  6. Nooo, he can't stay!!

    It never crossed my mind that Aro was lying to him, but if he was wouldn't Edward know? I mean, he would have had to think up the lie... I don't think it would be very believable if Aro could lie about that without Edward hearing it.

  7. Aro is F****** sneaky!
    He's using Edwards insecurities and fears to make him stay in Volterra.
