the girl who cried wolf // Twilight Saga

In the shadow of Forks, a twin sister's love is tested against ancient secrets and new dangers. Veronica Swan, fiercely protective of Bella, finds herself drawn into a world of shifters, vampires, and undeniable connections. Can she safeguard her family and her heart when the lines between loyalty and destiny blur, and a sudden, primal pull threatens to rewrite her fate?

The silence in Ronnie's room was thick, broken only by the soft glow of her phone. She scrolled through messages from Embry and Quil, a faint smile touching her lips.

Suddenly, the sound of Charlie's heavy footsteps on the stairs jolted her awake. A sigh of relief escaped her; no more Arizona nightmares tonight. "Happy Birthday, Veronica!" Charlie's booming voice filled the room as he entered, two wrapped gifts in hand, Bella trailing quietly behind him.

Ronnie sat up, winking at her dad. "Thanks, Dad." She glanced at Bella, who offered a small, distant smile. "Happy Birthday, Bells."

Bella said nothing, her eyes fixed on some unseen point in the distance. The Arizona incident had left a chasm between them, a silent understanding of trauma. Ronnie knew Bella needed time, and she was determined to be there when her sister was ready to talk.
