Preface
"You want me to tell you everything?" I questioned him.
"Yes. Everything. We want to know every single detail about your kind; how you existed, how you survive, your diets, everything." The investigator scrutinized my features. "About how many of your kind still roam the earth today?" he asked curiously.
I stared right back into his eyes without blinking. "From the looks of it, only I'm left. I don't know where the rest of them vanished." I can't risk their lives to save myself.
"And how many are -were- in your family?"
"Seven, not including me." I glared at him. He had no business to disturb the peace of my family.
The investigator stood up and started pacing around. "You had a lover, did you not? What was his name? Edwin?"
I looked down. Bringing his name up was always so painful. "Edward." I finally murmured. I felt like smacking him in the head.
"What happened to him?"
"He died. Ninety two years ago, today."
"Tell me about you two. Are your love lives identical to those of humans?"
"Barely." I said through clenched teeth and a flexed jaw, trying my best to maintain my anger level at medium.
"And he changed you?"
"Who else?"
"How?"
I sighed with agitation. This is going nowhere. The Vultori have disappeared. Carlisle's family was gone. Victoria was dead, and so was Edward. I might as well tell him the whole story. Starting form the exact moment I woke up from Edward's kiss.
