I feel better writing a few stories, at once, so I won't combine different ideas into one story, making them unreadable. I went ahead and posted this, because I thought it worthy to be. Moreover, I was bored. I knew if I refused to post it, now, that I would never post it, and it gave me something to do while writing the next chapters to my other stories.
I hope everyone enjoys, and please read and review!
Missy
For four weeks, I have been completely and utterly alone, living as best as anyone could after being deserted on a private island, with no way to get off. Lucky for me, some other humans have frequented the island, since. Otherwise, I would have died, by now.
Things were fine, at first, even though Edward and I both knew that we were not mates. Until we found our mates, we decided to marry, for show, and settle together, as so many other vampires had. I thought we were content. I just wanted a few more experiences that are human ones before I was changed. However, I would have decided against it if I had known for sure that he did not intend to change me. The morning after we had sex, he was gone. All that he left to show that he had even been here was a note, a couple thousand dollars, a credit card and a cellphone to call home, as I forgot to bring mine.
I know I should have called home, but in the end, I was glad that I just disappeared. I was positive that Charlie would have freaked when his supposedly dead daughter showed up on his doorstep.
The last couple of days, I had been bored, and they had a TV here, so I watched the international news, finding out that I had, supposedly, fallen off a cliff and drowned on my honeymoon and, without even coming here to check on Edward's story, his family just believed him over me, like always.
Sighing, I finally decided to get up after tossing and turning for a couple of hours. The amount of time that I slept, now, had dwindled down to a couple hours a night. Slowly, I was turning into a vampire, so the amount of sleep I needed had changed, drastically. As well as my feeding habits.
Food no longer felt the appeal to me that it once had. In fact, this last week, I had not ingested even one little morsel of food. I will say this much…I was not the only one who had disappeared from this island under weird circumstances. As I flipped on the TV, a thought occurred to me that it was somewhat odd that no one had checked this house. Of course, had they done so, I would have drained their blood, as well, but still…it was odd.
Idly, I began to flip through the phone that Edward left me. All of the Cullen numbers were different, of course. I wondered how much of this Alice had seen, and how she could call herself my friend and sister, after this.
I sighed, shuffling through the numbers. I knew, eventually, that I needed to leave, but I thought it better if a vampire helped me out. That brought me back to my main problem, why I think Edward left and why I was now devouring humans for my own person sustenance.
I was pregnant with that bastard's child! I hated him, not even considering him a father, but I loved my baby and would do anything for it, otherwise I might have killed myself, by now if I had no love for this child. She was bringing out in me a part that I had no clue that was there. I was already so powerful, and I had yet to transform. That was when I had an idea. Surely, the Volturi would think me worthy, now, if I told them my predicament. Maybe not Caius or Jane or even Marcus, but Aro certainly would.
Quickly, I skimmed through every number until I got to his name, dialing it. Only ringing once, a voice that I had no recognition of was the one to speak. "Aro Volturi's line," she said in a thick Italian accent. Not the same woman I remember from my time there, I knew that they had already disposed of her in one way or another. Back then, that would have made me sad, but after already killing nine humans on my own, by now, I quickly got over it.
"Hello," I said, sweetly yet sternly, into the phone. "I would like to speak with Master Aro, please."
She gasped; I guess not thinking that someone would be so bold to ask that, especially over the phone. "He wishes to not be disturbed." She sounded afraid, and I would have felt bad, for her, if my daughter's life was not above hers, right at this moment.
"If you wish to live," I mocked her. "Then you will tell him that Isabella Swan, formerly Cullen needs to speak with him, immediately!"
That seemed to have her attention, and she swiftly left the room she was in, going through the heavy, double doors, into the throne room. My recent advantages in the senses I already had allowed me to hear just about everything that was going on. Including the part where they threatened her life, until she said my name.
The phone switched hands. "Oh, Isabella," Aro's voice, happy and repugnant, floated through the line. It was odd how he could sound so happy, yet so creepy at the same time. "How is your honeymoon? Has young Edward turned you?"
"No," I said, hissing out the word. I think it shocked him, because for a moment, he said nothing.
"Well, you certainly are acting like a vampire. Care to enlighten me?"
I smirked at that. Regardless, with or without help, I might die, so I decided to have a little fun with my disastrous situation. "Have you heard about the killings and disappearances near Rio?"
A pause, then, "Yes, I believe I did. In fact, you were among them, though obviously you are not dead. What's going on?"
"That bastard abandoned me after having sex," I replied, gritting my teeth. Just thinking about him made me angry, which would not be a good thing to happen, with my growing powers. "I have been on this island for a month, now."
I heard Caius in the background, snickering mockingly, and I growled. It was almost as if I could hear Aro's smile as he said his next words. "You need help because you are stuck? Hardly seems like a job for the Volturi?" He paused, thinking very carefully about what he was saying. "You do know that, since your chance is up, we have every right to kill you?"
I smiled. He walked right into my trap. "Yes, I do," I replied smoothly. "But I also know that, once you have me, the last thing that you will want to do is kill me."
I heard the three kings laugh haughtily. "And what makes you so sure of that?" Caius sneered and, even though I should not have been able to hear him, I replied, "Because."
What I said confused them, but not more than me hearing Caius from that distance, did. Silence came through the line for several moments, before Aro sighed. "All right. You have our attention, young Isa. Why do you need our help?"
I took a deep breath in, letting it out slowly. Here I go. "I was a virgin until my honeymoon, where, as a human, I had sex with Edward, a vampire, obviously…"
"And?" Caius asked, rudely cutting me off in his impatience to get to the root of my problem. Again, I growled, causing Aro and Marcus to laugh.
"And if you'd stop being such a dickbag, I might be able to finish!" I sneered, my hormones and all-around anger getting the better of me.
Caius growled, but Aro acted as mediator. "He's sorry Isabella," Aro lied, but I let it go, for now. "So, you were a virgin and had a union with a vampire. What's so special about that?"
I sighed, again, suddenly nervous at every solution I had, what would work, and that, once I opened my mouth, again, there was no turning back. I steadied myself.
"I'm pregnant."
At that very moment, I shocked three of the world's oldest vampires in existence.
