Peter had fought against having a babysitter, he could protect himself and he could protect Becca too. Hadn't be proved that already? And hadn't Edward, not Ted but Edward, started to teach him? Plus, what would some stupid student from the university be able to do anyway?
He was beginning to revise his theory on the stupid student though.
Peter had recognized what Ted was almost as soon as he'd met him, but he hadn't thought anything of Adam. Adam who had a sword. And was talking to the vampire in a voice that wasn't cold at all but was even more dangerous because of that.
"Bella, you were my slave and my lover for three centuries. Three millenia have past since then and yes, you have gotten a great deal more powerful. But you have never before come up against me. So you have three options at this point:
"You can declare me your master. You and your whole line will do as I say when I say it.
"You can declare me your inferior, at which point I will prove you wrong.
"Or you can declare me your equal, and I will accept a truce as long as you do not trespass on anyone or anything under my protection.
"These are your choices. What do you pick?"
Peter looked at the vampire who had dared to attack Edward's family and yet now looked terrified by Adam. Maybe it was okay having a babysitter after all.
