Why Edward and Rosalie are important

It's interesting how many different people from different areas (fanfiction.net readers, Twilighted readers, Twilighted beta, fanfic friend) seem to feel that talking about Edward and Rosalie is out of sync with the story, that Chapter Eleven is more of an outtake than relevant to the plot.

It's so rare that I get constructive feedback that pertains to the actual story development that I am simply taken by surprise on this. Have I not been dropping hints all along? Weren't Edward and Rosalie featured in Chapter Four? Why is this coming as a big surprise?

I've known since I started this story that Edward and Rosalie would have their part to play, and the story would darken once they came into it.

It's also right in the summary: "the weight of choice and morals." Why are people so surprised that I'm actually developing the story as I said I would in the summary? That I actually introduced a moral dilemma for Bella to deal with? That I'm having her grow up first and not having her jump right in the sack with Carlisle?

In order for Bella to be the mature person that deserves to be a mate to a man like Carlisle, she can't be a teenage girl. She needs to develop her mind, and have something more in sync with Carlisle than an attraction. There aren't many eighteen-year-old girls that are prepared to take a stand for themselves as soon as something unexpected comes their way. Bella is thrown for a loop by the introduction of family members who kill, family members that will be taking a keen interest in her. I've shown in Chapters Five, Nine, Ten and Eleven that Carlisle is pained by what Edward and Rosalie do. How can people say that a scene demonstrating the beginnings of the romantic hero's private source of grief is not relevant to the story? Should I have been dropping bigger hints? Do I have to say that 2 +2 = 4?

The darkness of Edward and Rosalie bring Bella and Carlisle closer together. That's where I'm going. That's why I've been putting in references to Edward and Rosalie since Chapter One.

To truly understand why I'm getting this sort of feedback I can only suppose that my hints weren't prominent enough. I thank every reader that felt acceptance and saw that I was bringing Edward and Rosalie in for a reason.
