In Eclipse, Bella did say that Jacob would be her soul mate if they were in the normal world.
However, that never made sense to me. Also, Bella loving Edward and Jacob at the same time made me even mais confused.
Bella loves Edward. But she also loves Jacob just not as much as she loves Edward. Jacob thinks he loves Bella mais than Edward, but really, he loves Bella and Edward's unborn child Renesmee. So what were Bella's feelings for Jacob? Jacob never loved Bella like he claimed. His amor was for Renesmee.
So the major flaw in this situation is... Stephenie Meyer's writing. She still fails to explain this without people getting so confused. The anterior question: "What were Bella's feelings for Jacob?" This right here, since Jacob never actually loved Bella in that way, that pull was always for Renesmee, makes Bella seem ignorant and shallow.
Even if Bella said she loved Jacob in a non-brotherly way, there was a better way to establish that "love." Not once in Eclipse did Bella ever hint to us, the readers, that she saw Jacob in a different way. What Bella thinks, we read. Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, 2/3's of Breaking Dawn, yet in Eclipse, when she said she was trying to keep her feelings hidden for Jacob, we should have read that. A little hint, or fallback saying that Jacob was mais to a brother to her. But it never said she loved him. Not until after he forced her to kiss her.
This is the confusion that Stephenie Meyer created. And your question... NO. Twilight is not Bella and Jacob's story. To be honest, that's somewhat of a ridiculous theory haha Twilight started off as Bella's story. But, when it evolved into Bella and Edward's story, but still being told through Bella's thoughts.
