"So what's the plan?" Maya asked Carlisle as she dropped down onto the sofa of the Cullen living room where almost everyone was gathered, the day after the wedding.
"Plan?" Carlisle asked, looking up from the card game he was playing with Esme.
Maya rolled her eyes. "I am neither blind nor deaf Carlilse. These past few days you've pulled back from keeping a constant eye on Edward and reprimanding him any time he acts out. So? What's the reason behind it? And please don't tell me it was just because it was his wedding because I was here when we all debated whether we should even help him have it or not."
Maya's words caught everyone's attention, even Alice's and Bree's who had been in their room organizing the new furniture they had bought together. Within seconds everyone was settled in the living room, watching their coven leader expectantly.
Carlisle sighed. He had been planning on telling them his plan, but had intended to do it tomorrow after they had all had a day to rest. "As of a few days ago I have put Edward on 'probation'. From what you have told me Maya, it is common for Coven leaders to remove members of their coven for a time. To send them away when they act out as form of learning and punishment. I wanted to do that with Edward. To let him experience and realize just how much we have been doing for him, but that is not an option right now."
Rosalie opened her mouth to argue against it, but Carlisle held up a hand to stop her. "I know he has been trying to be around these past few months and not all of you would be against sending him away but we simply can't do that at the moment. Though Edward was the one to break the laws and tell Bella, I failed as the leader of this coven to stop him. Which means that I bare some of the responsibility along with him. Meaning that he must remain a part of this coven long enough for Bella to be turned and trained. These last few months have made it clear to me that Edward does not have what it takes to educate a newborn and so unfortunately that responsibility falls to us in order to ensure that no innocents are harmed if she loses control."
"That makes sense" Jasper conceded. While he may not believe that the Volturi would hold them accountable if Bella acted out as a vampire, he still did not want to risk her running wild and attacking people. He had enough guilt from his time as a human blood drinker and didn't need to add not stopping the annoying human before she killed someone to it.
"So why have you pulled back as Maya said?" Rosalie asked, understanding her father figures logic but not happy about it.
"Because I am going to use this time to see if he will mature. I will still be keeping a close eye on him, but I want to see what he will do. If he starts behaving better now that there is no danger to this family or Bella, I will not send the two of them away for too long. But if he continues to endanger this family or be horrible to us then I may have no choice but to remove him from our family permanently."
Everyone stared at Carlisle shocked. While they had all contemplated the idea of kicking Edward out so they wouldn't have to deal with Bella or the drama that followed those two around, no one had considered that Carlisle was thinking seriously about it. Even Bree, who had only been with them for two months and was already sick of the pair, was shocked.
"So no matter what the human is not joining our family?" Rosalie asked hopefully.
"She will for the first year while we ensure that she gains control, but after that? No, not for a while at the least."
"Yes!" Rose screamed, jumping up and down in excitement. "Alice plan a trip! We're going to Seattle to celebrate!"
"Already on it" Alice crowed, phone in hand as she googled possible places to stay and party.
Maya just laughed along with everyone else as the girls bent their heads together and pulled Bree into the planning. As she snuggled up against Jasper's side she let a smile take over her face. All they would have to do is make it through this next year and then they would finally be able to put all the drama and danger that followed Edward and Bella behind them and enjoy some peace.

"So?" Alice asked as she sat down next to Maya on the couch in the Cullen's living room. "When's your wedding to Jasper?"
Maya sighed and picked Lucky up to pet as she let her head fall back to rest against the back of the couch. Edward and Bella had been on their honeymoon for two weeks now and it seemed like Alice was still stuck in wedding planner mode. "Not for a long time."
"Aw come on, you two would make an absolutely wonderful bride and groom!"
Jasper looked up from his book at that and studied her. "You know she's right Darlin', you would look stunning" he told her, smiling as he imagined it.
"Exactly!" Alice agreed excitedly.
Maya shook her head at the two as a smile of her own began to appear. "Cowboy I hate to break it to you but if you propose I will have to turn you down."
Now the whole family was making their way to the living room and looking at her in confusion.
Maya snorted at the looks on their face and held her hands up in a sign of peace. "It's got nothing to do with you Jas. Or me. My dad just made me promise years ago that I wouldn't go running off to get married until I was at least 25."
"25?" Rosalie asked in confusion while Jasper seemed to be contemplating her answer.
"Yeah, well, dad wanted me to wait till I was 60 and I managed to bargain him down to 25. Mostly by reminding him that I wanted him around and able to walk me down the aisle" Maya told her with an eye roll.
"Well that's okay" Alice assured her, "that just gives us 6 years, 8 months and 2 weeks to plan it. Honestly that will be so much nicer than with Bella and Edward who just wanted to get married as soon as possible. We'll be able to do so much more this way!"
The more Alice talked the more the looks her family sent her turned into looks of horror and confusion.
"Alice, I haven't even proposed yet" Jasper reminded his sister, deeply concerned for her state of mind.
Alice turned to glare at him, "well then get to it!" she snapped.
Maya at this point just had her face hidden in Lucky's side as she laughed. Everyone else was just looking at Alice disbelieving as she continued to talk about ideas for Maya's wedding or how Jasper could propose to her.
Eventually Bree came to the rescue and asked Alice if she had any shoes that went with a new top she had bought. Alice immediately rushed off to her closet to check and promised that if she didn't have the perfect thing then she knew just the store that would.
The whole family just laughed and shook their heads in fond exasperation as she took off. They loved her, but they were all very glad Bree was here to help redirect her when needed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few days later, Maya and Jasper were hanging out on her bed while her dad was off fishing with Billy. Jasper was laid back on it reading out the latest letter he had gotten from Peter and Charlotte; his two friends from his time with Maria. Maya was laughing along with him as he read about Peter's latest antics. She had yet to meet the man but from what she had heard she thought he was probably a lot like Emmet (and her) in that he tended to act before thinking. At least if the pool full of alligators and flamingos was anything to go by.
**Smut Warning**
Jasper was just finishing reading the letter, holding it with his left as Maya had rolled over and was fiddling with his right above his head, when he heard a click of metal on metal and felt something settle on his wrist. Looking up he saw what looked like an old handcuff. It was about 3 inches wide and a half inch thick.
He raised an eyebrow at it and gave it a tug, surprised to find it was apparently attached to the bed or wall with a thick chain. He turned to ask Maya what she thought she was doing, only to see her reach for his other arm and bring it up over his head and next to his right so she could snap another cuff around it.
Now he was really confused. "Darlin' what exactly do you think your doing?"
"Payback" Maya told him with a grin. "Last time you wouldn't let me touch you at all so I thought I would return the favour."
"By chaining me up?" he asked with a frown.
Maya nodded as she ran her hands down his chest and then slid them up under his shirt. "Mm, Rose assured me that these would hold you. Which means that now I get to do whatever I want to you. Assuming you're okay with it?" The thought of being able to touch Jasper as she liked and do what she wanted to him already had her soaked as she shivered in excitement.
Searching her face and emotions and scenting her arousal he let out an amused sigh of acceptance. It might be fun to see where my little kitten will go with this he thought with a smirk as he gave her a nod of agreement. He may enjoy taking charge in the bedroom and get a thrill out of seeing her submit to him, but if she wanted to take the lead like this and experiment he wasn't going to deny her.
The smile she gave in response to his agreement was practically blinding. Leaning down she brought their lips together in an excited kiss as she used her claws to shred his shirt. He moaned into the kiss as she allowed her claws to trail down his chest, lightly scraping it as she did.
"Don't tease" he growled, breaking away from the kiss.
Maya just grinned at him and repeated her actions as she leaned down so her lips were level with his ear. "You're not in control right now Love" she breathed in his ear.
He fought back a shudder at the feeling of her breath on his ear as she moved down so that she could begin tracing the scars on his neck with her tongue. She was very thorough as she worked her way down his neck, up his arms and across his chest, paying attention to each and every scar on his body, lavishing them with attention.
Looking up at him through her lashes from where she was tracing a scar on his chest with her tongue, Maya felt her arousal begin to slide down her thighs at the sight. Jasper had his head thrown back as he clenched his jaw. His hands had moved so that they gripped the chains and she practically purred in delight at the sight of his muscles flexing under his skin as he tugged on them.
Finished tracing the last scar on his chest she sat up, moving so that she could rub herself over his jean-clad cock, moaning as she felt the friction on her clit. He let out a moan as well at the sudden contact and she ground down harder on him in response.
"Darlin'" he growled in warning. He was all for allowing Maya to experiment and enjoy herself, but he was not in the mood to be teased like this. Not after she had traced his scars and practically driven him insane by the sight and feel of her mouth and hands on his body.
Maya giggled breathlessly, "turn about is fair play Jas. You always get to play with my body, now it's my turn to return the favour."
"If you wanted to return the favour you would get rid of the clothes you're wearing so I could see you properly."
Maya smiled and leaned forward to bring his into a searing kiss as she threaded her hands through his hair. Their tongues clashed as Jasper refused to surrender the kiss to her and she mentally shook her head in amusement.
Breaking away from the kiss before he could completely rob her of her senses, she slipped off of him so that she could strip. She tossed her clothes away, not caring where they landed as she climbed back on top of him and began to work on his jeans.
As she got them undone and slid the last of his clothes off, she stared hungrily at his fully erect cock. Feeling saliva gather in her mouth at the sight of it, she was quick to move and take it into her mouth.
She began by sucking on the tip, running her lips over it and sucking gently as her tongue flicked over it in gentle licks. As Jasper moaned at the feeling she moved on, licking up the length of it as her hands came up to help. She worked his cock, enjoying the sounds Jasper was making as she did.
"Enough" he finally barked, "open that pretty mouth of yours and swallow me."
Hiding a grin, Maya moved to do just that. She had known as she planned this that Jasper would never be content to surrender control to her completely. But this wasn't about that anyways. No, what she wanted was the chance to lavish every part of his body with attention as she often didn't get to.
Sinking down on him again, she slowly allowed her head to lower until she had hit the back of her mouth. She hallowed her cheeks and sucked gently on it, enjoying the sounds that Jasper made and how they made her already dripping core wetter. As he bucked his hips she placed a hand on his hips, using her strength to push him back down. He growled in response and she hummed on his cock, causing him to throw his head back.
Taking a deep breath, she relaxed and allowed him to slide in further until she had swallowed all of him. She stayed like that, holding him in her mouth as the hand that wasn't pinning him down moved up to cup his balls and began to gently squeeze them. The sound he let out at the feeling was practically feral and she purred in delight at invoking such a sound from him.
Jasper's brain short circuited at the feeling of her throat vibrating around him. Every kiss and lick she had placed on his body had been slowly driving him insane and this was the last straw. With a roar he gave one massive yank on the chains and snapped whatever held them. His hands immediately flew down so his fingers could tangle in her hair and he used that to guide her head up and down on his shaft as he liked.
Maya heard the sound of something breaking, but before she could even register what it was, his hands tangled in her hair and began to move her head. She had been unprepared for it and nearly choked on his cock in surprise but she somehow managed to suck in a breath in the second that he had pulled her head back before pushing her back down.
Her hand slipped off his hip as he continued to harshly pull and push her head and the moment it did, he was thrusting up into her mouth so that he could fuck her mouth harder. Her eyes rolled back at the sensation of him fucking her throat raw and she moaned and gagged around his cock as her arms desperately tried to hold her up.
Jasper laughed from above her as he watched her eyelashes flutter in delight. "What's the matter Darlin'? I thought you wanted to be in charge?"
She tried to speak, but he shoved her head back down on his cock before she could, cutting off all ability to do so. She looked up at him and let out a whine at the sight. His eyes were dark with lust and he had a crooked smirk on his face as he focused his complete attention on her mouth and the pleasure it was giving him.
If she wasn't already drenched, she would have been now. Her core was practically gushing with arousal at the sight and she whimpered as she squeezed her legs together. She began to reach a hand back to give herself some relief, but Jasper somehow managed to wrap the chain, still attached to the cuffs on his wrists, around her own and twist it so her hand was pinned behind her back as he continued to manoeuvre her head with one hand.
She practically sobbed at being denied and he chuckled darkly at her as his cock continued to move relentlessly in and out of her mouth. "You stared this Darlin', so don't blame me for finishing it" he warned.
He pumped himself into her a few more times before yanking her off him. He came then, shooting all over her face as he did. Maya swallowed what had landed in her mouth before licking her lips to gather what she could of the rest of it. Jasper grinned at her attempts before bringing his hand up so he could use his thumb to wipe it off her face and bring it to her mouth.
He repeated the process a few times until he had gotten all of it, leaving his thumb in her mouth for her to suck on as he contemplated what to do with her next. He could feel her desperation, lust and need clearly. Not to mention he could smell her arousal as it positively flowed out of her. With a grin he decided he would be nice and not play with her. He had enjoyed himself after all.
Unwinding the chain from around her wrist, he watched as her hand came up so she could grab his wrist to keep his thumb in her mouth, sucking harder on it than before as she pleaded with him with her eyes. He cocked an eyebrow at her in amusement before moving quicker than she could follow.
Maya let out a shriek of surprise, pain and pleasure as before she could comprehend Jasper had her on her back and he was fully inside her. His cock drilled into her relentlessly, stretching her to the max as he always did. Within the first few seconds she lost all ability to think as she lost herself to the pleasure. She clung to him desperately as she babbled his name over and over, the feeling of him ruining her driving out every other word from her mind.
She came quickly, the feeling of her walls clenching and fluttering around him driving Jasper over the edge as well.
Maya panted as she slowly came back to herself, whimpering as Jasper slowly pulled himself out of her. The feeling of their mixed essences sliding out of her making her clench her legs together as Jasper sped off. He was back a moment later with a cloth and gently cleaned her off, smirking to himself as he took in her dazed look. This was probably not what she thought was going it happen when she started this he thought smugly to himself.
When he had cleaned them both off, he gathered her into his arms and settled into the bed with her, being careful of the chains that were still attached to his wrists. "Darlin' I don't suppose you have the key handy?" he asked.
"Nightstand drawer" she told him tiredly, still enjoying the fading waves of pleasure and the feeling of being wrapped in his arms.
Jasper quickly leaned over and found the key, unlocking himself and dropping the chains to the floor. As he did Maya watched with a pout on her face. "Rose said those would hold."
He looked down at her with a smirk, "upset that they didn't."
Maya shook her head, "just curious."
"Ah yes, my Darlin' the always curious cat" Jasper joked. "To answer your question though, they did hold. It was whatever you attached them to that didn't."
"Mm, I'll have to keep that in mind for next time" she told him with a cheeky grin on her face.
"Next time?"
She grinned at him at that. "You didn't enjoy it?"
Jasper laughed at that as he gave her a small shove towards the end of the bed. "Go get cleaned up Darlin', we have to leave in an hour if we are going to be on time to play baseball."
"We have plenty of time."
"We did, then you decided to spend it all trying to take charge" Jasper told her with a grin.
Maya pouted, "you're talking like you didn't enjoy it."
"Oh I did Darlin'. Every second of it. But now we're gonna have to rush if we don't want to be late for the game."
Maya groaned but got up to get ready. Next time I do something like this I'm going to have to make sure we have nothing planned for after it so we can cuddle.
