Prologue

"Serina!" a voice echoed in the empty house. Laura Tarken rushed up the stairs, fear running through her body as she looked for her middle child. She opened all the doors and finally opened one with her daughter in. She let out a huge sigh.

"Serina when I call you please answer me." she looked down at her middle child. Serina was 18 years old and had blossomed into a beautiful young woman. Her black hair had grown long and hung down her back in a sleek black curtain, her chocolate eyes were big and round, she was about 5'9 and had a great body. She was currently lying on the floor with her keyboard in front of her and headphones in her ears. She had a drawing pad to the left and it was on a blank page. She wore a blue T-shirt and a pair of jeans and she was wearing her necklace. Laura sighed since their daughter had miraculously come back to them she had refused to take off that necklace. Her son Josh was 27 and had just gotten married and her other daughter Georgina was 15 and the smartest girl in her year but Serina was different. She was very creative and musical, her grades weren't bad but she would be told off for drawing in class or humming out a melody.

Serina raised her head up to her mum and smiled. Today was important for two reasons one the family was moving to a house on the outskirts of their town that they had been preparing for for months and number two today was 13 years since her adventure in Volterra.

"Sorry mum, I was just working on this amazing melody that just popped into my head and I had to try it out." Her mum just shook her head and left the room. Serina felt a little frustrated her mum couldn't leave her one hour without checking where she was. She wasn't as smart as Georgie or as successful as Josh the big business man she was the musical middle child. Serina knew her parents loved her but she wished that they didn't always try to fix her. She liked who she was. She picked up her sketch pad and flicked through it her drawing skill had greatly improved over the years and she was seen as the schools top artist. This was her special sketch book. She drew pictures of them in here, her vampire friends. There were several sketches of each some head pictures others of them standing or sitting Aro, Marcus. Jane, Heidi even that jerk Caius and Felix. Her eyes lowered a bit and she felt that familiar tug on her heart strings. She missed him the most.

Her hand instinctively went to the necklace he had given her holding it always comforted her and it made her happy. Tucked in her bag was that special metal disc that Aro had given her before she had left. Luckily she hadn't had to use it but she always kept it close to her. When she had "appeared" back in England there had been a huge uproar into what had happened and where she had been. She had pretended to forget what had happened to her and the "experts" said that she could have blocked out the traumatic time she was away. This seemed plausible and she had stuck with it. After 13 years she still kept the vampires existence secret and she would never betray them.

She really missed them all. Shaking her head she turned to the covered painting and took the blanket off. The painting was for her schools art fair and she hoped it would win first place. The painting was of a crystal dragon in a cave roaring at a full moon and she had put a lot of effort in to it. She looked it over and searched for any minor flaws today she was going to hand it in.

Felix sighed as Jane began torturing the human in front of them the fool had tried to actually steal from them and he had no sympathy for him. He was already bored with it so he left Jane to her pleasure and wandered aimlessly down the halls of the palace. He never was very talkative on this day. He opened his chamber door and sat on the bed. She would be 18 by now he thought as he looked at the only colourful thing in his room. A framed child's drawing of him. It was the most important thing to him and his only link to Serina. He wondered what she would look like and if she would still be the same as when he had last seen her.

After she had gone things had returned to normal in the Volturi except for one or two things. Marcus was slightly more emotional and not as stone as he had been, Heidi had gotten a little nicer but the biggest change was in himself. He couldn't feed off females any more every time he did he saw her face staring at him in horror and fear. His friend Demetri had been away when she had been here and didn't understand how a little human girl had changed him so much. He rose his head to the roof and prayed that wherever she was she was happy.

Serina handed the finished painting to her art teacher and crossed her fingers as he looked at it.

"Well Serina you appeared to have out done yourself yet again" her art teacher Mr Skont said looking up and down her picture. She glowed he was one of the few people who thought she was fine just the way she was.

"In fact there is an art exposition oversees for anyone in Europe and I think this drawing would do very well there." She stepped back shock and pride welling up inside her.

"You really think it's that good?" She said .

"Absolutely! It's an amazing piece. Well think about it and I'll give you the permission form if you want to go." He said and handed her back the painting. He went to his desk and handed her the letter. She walked outside with the canvas under her arm and read it. She stopped instantly in the hallway and reread the sentence.

We invite you to an art exhibition in the scenic city of Livorno in Italy.

Italy. A fierce longing welled up inside her. Sure it wasn't Volterra but she really really wanted to go. She just had to convince her mum to let her go to the place where she had gone missing when she was five. Oh boy this was going to be a challenge.

"NO! NO! NO!" That was the only word that her mum had to say on the subject but Serina was not going to let this opportunity pass her by. Her parents were so paranoid about her that they weren't going to let her grow up. She wanted to go to university in Scotland and live her own life. And she was going to the exhibition.
