Chapter one: born in hell

Caius POV

"Push, Push" Heidi said calmly as the filthy human I seduced and raped 4 months ago gave birth to a unnatural creation which was half human, half vampire. Aro refused to let me kill the human because he just had a child of his own with Bella, his human wife, and has a sort of new love for humans now, but I still hate them and I hate that something as worthless as a human was having my child. Argh. Even the thought of it made me sick.

And then finally the child was born and she was nowhere near as beautiful as Aro's daughter, Emily. The mother whispered the name Alaina and then the last breathe left her lips and she died. I wasn't upset about this fact all actually I was happy grateful that I wouldn't have to kill this human myself even though I wouldn't mind something to eat.

I took the baby out of Heidi's arms and passed her to Jane.

"Take her to her room" I ordered.

Alaina POV

My name is Alaina Volturi, I am a very rare creature (which is part of the reason that I am not dead yet) which is half vampire half human, I am fifteen and my father is Caius ruler of the vampire world.

You would think I would love my life, living in a massive castle and being a princess and all but life is literarily my own living hell.

I only have a couple of friends here and they are Emily and her boyfriend Alec and Marcus who is my uncle but acts as more of a father figure to me. Emily and Alec are both my age well in looks, Alec is over 100 years old but he was changed when he was 15. Everyone else treats me like dirt including my own father who is one of the three rulers of the vampire world; Aro (Emily's dad), Caius (my dad) and Marcus who unfortunately has not had another lover since his wife passed away.

My life here consists of mainly the same thing every day. When I wake up I get dressed into my working clothes, make my bed and head into the kitchen for breakfast which is a slice of bed and a drink of blood mixed wine I then go and make my father's bed and clean his room. After that I go to the throne room to say hello to my father and my uncles and to see if today is any different to any others and when it is not I do my long list of chores. Really rather than be treated as a princess I am treated more as a slave. I never complain but my father always finds things that I do wrong and punishes me for it. When I ask what it was that I did wrong he would simply say "you were born" and that "you are a disgrace to the vampire race and to my own name". He says these things as he is beating me, whipping me or torturing me in some other form.

That has been my life for the 15 years of my existence and today was exactly the same. When I awoke my head was pounding like crazy from last night's beating, I had accidently laid fathers' bed cover lopsided on the bed and one side was a centimetre shorter than the other which was something only a vampire could pick up. So I went to the throne room and bowed low in front of the three ancient vampires.

"Good morning masters" I said in a respective voice. "

"Alaina, Alaina, Alaina." Father scolded, "You are 1 second late, and you will be punished for that later". I gulped. "Now get out of my sight" He yelled. I hurried out there without a second to lose.

I ran out of there and straight into Alec who picked me up like a doll and sprinted.

"Argh," I play screamed "A big bad vampire is attacking me". I laughed and so did Alec as he put me down and pretended to walk away but then turned around tackled me to the ground I did a loud squeal and then Alec said "I've got you now". I fake gulped and then he started tickling me furiously. I screamed and couldn't stop laughing. I know I should quieten down in case someone hears me but I just can't stop laughing.

"What is all this noise, we are trying to eat back here" a familiar voice yelled sounding furious. And that's when I looked up and saw Caius glaring daggers at me and suddenly the phrase if looks could kill ran through my mind.

"You" he said in a dangerously low voice, "I should of known something as useless as you would be the one ruining everything". I didn't have anything to say to that so I just hung my head in shame. While Alec- sweet, stupid Alec stood up for me.

"I am sorry master" he said while bowing low "it was my fault".

"Even if it was I still wouldn't punish you because my joy in life is this little bundle of fun. "

As he said this he pointed roughly in my direction and I cowered into the wall.

"You may go Alec" Caius ordered. And then roughly grabbed me by the arm and started dragging me towards the torture chamber or my bedroom as he calls it. When we get there he throws me into the wall. I feel a searing pain in my scalp and I know it can't be good. I crumple to the floor clutching my head in my hands knowing this is just the beginning.

He starts kicking my continuously in the ribs and i know i will have a massive bruise there tomorrow but the shape of my body doesn't matter to him because all he thinks about is the pain he is causing me and that just makes him kick harder and if you have ever been kicked by a vampire you will have a slight idea of what it feels like.

He kept going all night and of course he didn't get tired but I did and about 3pm I blacked out.
