Here's a glimpse at chapter 13:
“Here,” he said softly, opening the packets of antiseptic towelettes, giving one to Jasper so he could wipe his hands while Edward used another to gently clean the dried and drying blood from his face. “You sure you’re okay?” he asked quietly.
Jasper nodded tightly. “I bit my lip when he hit me, and Bella caught me in her flailing.”
Edward ran his fingers lightly over Jasper’s jaw, watching him flinch when he caught a tender area. “Sorry.”
“Is alright,” Jasper answered.
Edward balled up the used wipes when he was finished and looked back over his shoulder where his dad was looking over James. “How badly did you kick his ass?” He asked quietly.
“Not nearly enough,” Jasper all but growled. “I was just trying to get him away from Bella and get some help, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he has a couple broken ribs.”
“He doesn’t look that bad.”
Jasper’s smile was grim. “Hitting someone in the face isn’t very smart. It does more damage to the person hitting.”
Edward smirked.

See you all Thursday!
