Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.287
Before I tell you my story, you must understand that there are places in our world, Bella, where the life span of the never-aging is measured in weeks, and not centuries.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.287
I shuddered at the image in my head, at the word feed. But Jasper wasn’t worried about frightening me, not overprotective like Edward always was.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.288
If not for the Volturi, the rest of us would be quickly exposed.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.288
I frowned at the way he pronounced the name — with respect, almost gratitude. The idea of the Volturi as the good guys in any sense was hard to accept.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.288

Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.301

Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.301

Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.307

Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.309
