Hello! I was reading two books at the same time and this idea came to me. Please review and I kind of need a beta. If you would be interested or know anyone who is interested please contact me. I have written three stories but have taken them all down because no one reviewed. The more reviews I get the faster I will update.
Disclaimer: Unless B-R-O-O-K-E magically spells Stehenie Meyer then I , unfortunately , do not own Bella, Edward and the rest of her magical universe.
It was winter of 1850 when Bella Swan made the decision that would forever change her life. With little food and no home she decided she would do whatever she needed to do to stay alive. She was not like her mother, she would not give up. She would persevere and keep going until she died. Not of starvation, as her mother, or of an accident, like her dad. She could move in with Mr. Cheney and his wife. Or she could move in with the Black's even though it would be disastrous. Socially of course. But she was going to do whatever it took to stay afloat. Even if it meant going to work with Mr. Volturi.
Mr. Volturi was another foreign man who had come over hoping to find gold and strike it rich. But he hadn't found gold so he had opened a new business. One popular in Italy. A brothel or whore house. He had stuck it rich through that because there were so many single men looking for gold that needed help "relieving their stress". Mr. Volturi, or Aro as he let his workers called him operated out of a saloon his brother owned. Caius was the meanest brother of the three, but he did offer accommodations for a weekly price. For most of the girls it was the best offer you could get in California as a single woman. It certainly was the best offer for Bella. She couldn't think of anything better.
She had been working there for a month when the rules changed. She had to work at the saloon on top of her "whoring" as Aro called it. So that Monday she got up and got dressed in her new work uniform. A low cut navy blue dress with a square neckline. All the girls had the same dress and jewelry, just in different colors. Her nipples almost stuck out of the dress it was so low. She pulled her hair up in a "sophisticated" bun that Lauren had taught her. Lauren was one of the other girls living in the large upstairs room with Bella. Bella was only one of six girls working "the floor" as they called it. Lauren, Jessica, Rosalie, Leah, Olivia and her worked at Caius'. They shared a big room on the top floor and were each others only family. They all got along great except for Lauren and Rosalie. But that was only because Rose was a prettier version of Lauren. Rosalie with her blond hair and piercing blue eyes, Jessica with her curly brown hair and gray eyes, Leah with her tan skin, black hair and almost black eyes. Olivia had curly red hair and light green-grey eyes. Then there was Lauren with wavy blonde hair and light, pale blue eyes. But Bella was the most beautiful. The most supple bosom, the prettiest face. Big red lips, cute nose, and gorgeous brown hair that matched her eyes. Her eyes had always been so full of life but then she had started working with the Volturi and all the light had left her eyes. It was actually kind of sad. She looked like a girl who had lost everything. But you know what they say. "Good things come to those who wait." And Bella had been waiting for a really long time.
Sorry if it is short, if you want longer chapters please review and tell me. I just didn't want to bore you. So ... did you like it?
