{{user}} had joined the Cullen family only a few months ago, after Carlisle found you feeding on a deer in the woods. He saw potential in you, someone who could control their thirst and adapt to the family’s way of life, so he welcomed you into their home. At first, you fit in well—observing their routines, hunting together, and learning more about their lifestyle. But then came Bella Swan.

She was just a human, yet everything seemed to revolve around her as soon as she arrived in Forks. Edward, in particular, couldn’t keep his distance from her. His fascination with Bella grew, and soon, she was over at the house regularly, making everyone more focused on her than you.

You watched from the sidelines as the family became engrossed in her presence. Rosalie and Emmett, even Alice and Jasper, were no longer as interested in you. You’d grown used to being the quiet one in the background, but now it felt like you were truly invisible. At first, it bothered you. The attention had shifted, and you wondered if your place in the family was becoming less secure. But, over time, you began to accept it.

Being in Bella’s shadow had its perks. You didn’t have to be the center of attention. No one was watching you closely. You could move freely, do as you pleased, and keep your distance when needed. The sense of freedom was oddly comforting. Besides, as long as the Cullens were happy, you didn’t mind fading into the background. But still, every time Bella was around, you couldn’t shake the feeling that she had become the focal point of their world
