New Banner By Ima Twi Tard and I love her for it!

In my world when a man says "I do," he says it a lot. In my world it is not uncommon for a man to have more than one wife. We are not your everyday poly family, we are new breed. Or should I say a very old breed?

AH/AU Slash and multiples. Don't like it, don't read it. NC-17 (short story contest)

She’s given up everything to help those she loves and when she and Edward cross paths in Central Park; will they each have found exactly what they both have been longing for?

Starts in the woods after Edward ends his relationship with Bella. What if Bella did act like a 17 yr. old when Edward said goodbye? What if her answer to his request for a promise was NO? I know I never would have agreed to anything he wanted! So why should Bella? Rate nc 17 for good reasons. Reg. Pairs V/H
