I'm liking Marcus now...

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight!

Marcus found out of what Aro did to Didyme. He left the Volturi 2 years ago...


I was walking around aimlessly in the small-desolated forest of Astoria, Oregon. I was on the hunt for some animals. Yes, unbelievable. I, Marcus, once one of the lords of Volturi, have stooped down on hunting animals. Animal blood that doesn't sustain my thirst well, but enough to make it through a week; it's good to practice self-control. Yes, I have lowered myself into a Cullen, and I find it very hard to resist human blood.

How can they resist such temptation? It was the same situation as a poor and hungry dog that was not allowed to eat a steak at all. Though I did managed well by myself for 2 years now. I did, however, considered on going to the Cullens but because of what happened long ago (3-4 years?), I'm not too sure that they would be so keen to see me.

As I tread through every twig and leaf on the slightly muddy soil ground, I started reminiscing of what occurred two years ago. That night when I found out Aro had murdered his own sister, my wife, Didyme, just so he could keep me, my power. I was outraged; I wanted to kill him right then and there. I thought about killing his mate but I went against it; I will not lower myself to his level.

I will find a way to have my revenge but not that way. I know leaving the Volturi took a toll on Aro, but it didn't satisfy my vengeance. I wanted him to hurt, to make him feel what I had felt. However, as I said, I will not lower my status to his, or that would make me worse. Still, hatred burned inside me; I want to kill him—no—I want him to suffer an eternal pain like mine.

My thoughts were then interrupted when I caught a scent of the most delicious aroma. I breathe in the fragrance once more, and my mind went racing. This was a human scent, sweet floral mixed with lavender that excited the monster within me. I stopped; I hadn't realized that I practically ran to the scent.

That's odd, I usually have more self-control than that. I sniffed the air again to detect the aroma; it was near. Curiosity got the best of me as my mind struggled; yelling at me to run away before I would dare touched that human. However, the monster inside me asked me why did I even choose the path of the so-called 'vegetarian'? I didn't know but I just did.

I was close to an open clearing, close to that delicious fragrance. I remained inconspicuous, using the trees as my hiding spots. There, in the center of the clearing, was a lady of her young age. She had this beauty that I can't describe, a maiden's beauty. Her olive skin glowed without the sun, her light blue eyes glisten as she continued to stare at the sky filled with dull grayish clouds, her hair was long and black ebony, and her figure, her facial features were fairer than all humans I see. She wore a black long coat, white turtleneck sweater, jeans, and dark flat ankle boots. She was so much like an angel as she stood there, unmoving. I could easily depict angel wings growing out of her back and the clouds going away so that the sun's light would shine upon her.

The very vision before me twisted every feeling I had in me. The hatred for Aro was still there but not as potent as for what I have felt for her. What I felt right now was what I felt the same of Didyme. I was hesitant but my feet managed to move itself, bringing me out into the clearing. The beauty in my eyes let out a small gasped and she turned to me. She was surprised at first but then it switched to what looked like curiosity. Her heart was beating normally and her color stayed the same shade, and not as white as a ghost. She wasn't afraid of me. Everything that was surging within me twisted and turned in every direction as she began to smile at me warmly. Just like that, my cold heart melted. I swear I could feel it beating.

She approached me with no caution or any hesitation at all. I as well had done the same thing. Soon, we were close, about 3 feet away from each other. Her alluring scent hit me hard but I held my breath quick. I did not want to kill her. The monster inside of me growled and my throat burned like fire, but I ignored it. I kept staring at the figure right in front of me.

It was silent but the gentle wing that blew across the clearing from the west heading to the east. And then, she spoke with the most pleasant, quite, soft voice that I have ever heard. "Would you like to come with me? I know we just met but…" She trailed off. She and I were both in the same position. Neither of us knew why we were so drawn to each other. I don't know why I suddenly had these feelings for her, however I can see the bond between us. It was strong...stronger and similar to what I had before...

Without any hint of hesitation, I complied with her offer. "Yes…" I said nothing more than that and she understood of my silent stature as she gave me the kindest smile.

My future with her was brighter than ever, and nothing, not even the Volturi, would dare take away the light…


Should I continue this? It's going to get a little bit complicated because it's going be an imprint story for Leah or Embry. And no, it doesn't include Marcus, or the OC falling to her/him. You'll see. Should I continue this, or no? And yes, I'll also add in some conflict with the Volturi.
