Bella is a vampire!

I'm still reading Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer from the Twilight series.

As I had questioned before if Bella would be willing to give up her own life for her baby, it’s true. She did. But, Bella didn’t die! She delivered the baby, but that came with a lot of pain. Bella accidentally bent over and ripped the placenta, which caused the Cullens to perform early labor on her. Alice Cullen had to slice her stomach all the way open because the baby was so large. Edward and Bella named the girl Renesme for half of the names Renee (Bella’s mom) and Esme (Edward’s mom). The baby is half vampire and half human. She seems to crave all types of blood and Renesme also has warm skin, but it’s the color of a vampire’s. I wonder if the baby will be thirsty for regular humans like Charlie, will that put him in danger of ever getting close to her? And I wonder what would happen if she bit Jacob.

I also predicted that Bella would be on the verge of death, but then Edward would transform her into a vampire so she’d stay alive. He did, and the amount of pain and torture Bella expressed from the venom inside her body was unimaginable. “The pain was bewildering…Reality was red, and it felt like I was being sawed in half, hit by a bus, punched by a prize fighter, trampled by bulls, and submerged in acid, all at the same time.” (pg.369). Just hearing those words makes you shiver and cringe. I can’t even imagine having someone bite me and to be conscious for the venom going through your blood.

After going through all this, Bella is a vampire. The problem is that now SHE is more powerful than Edward so she will have to be careful. I thought it was funny how she arm-wrestled with Emmett and beat him! He was so mad about that.

Now that Bella is a vampire, I wonder if she’ll be rabid or if she’ll stay under control. I guess I’ll just have to keep reading to find out…
