I never really had a big fascination with Alec but this idea came to me and I thought it was good enough to try as a full story. It is set just after Edward, Bella and Alice leave the Volturi. I plan to update very often if it proves popular as I just graduated high school and have precisely nothing to do with my time for the next three months until uni : D

I do not own any of the characters of course and I thank Stephanie Meyer for the characters that triggered this uncharacteristic brilliance of mine.


I watched as they left our chambers. It was the most peculiar sight. On one side was Edward with his granite skin and beat-less heart. On the other was his supposed mate; a human. Her skin was rosy where the blood rose near to the surface of her skin showing the panic I regularly witnessed in this room. Her heart was beating fast and strong, circulating the most delicious blood I had smelled in a long while. Despite all of this and despite the fact that I knew her blood appealed more to Edward then I could probably imagine, he walked along side her with one arm around her waist while his pretty little sister Alice walked on the opposite side, both as comfortably and effortlessly as if the human girl was one of us. It made no sense yet I saw it before me at this very moment. Alas, the Volturi had always considered the Cullen Coven as odd. Perhaps their sentiments were the result of having been jilted so many centuries ago when their leader, Carlisle had refused to join them. Instead he had left and travelled to America where he fed on only animals and had convinced those he calls his "family" to do the same. It was disgusting. The thought of substituting animal blood for human blood was as foreign as living on just a diet of dirt and yet the Cullens managed it. The Volturi are right, those Cullens are odd. As if denying themselves human blood isn't odd enough, Edward has supposedly fallen in love with a human who for some reason he does not wish to change into one of us.

At that moment the very smell that made the thought of devouring furred or feathered creatures revolting assailed my nostrils; human blood.

"Heidi returns…" said Aro with a smile that revealed the teeth I knew he was eager to soak in blood, "… and with plenty to share around."

I let a soft chuckle escape from my throat. How I loved being what I was. How I loved Aro for changing my sister and I. We were now more than human and they deserved to die to quench our desires. They would die. It was not as if I hated humans. In a way I loved them for the delicious liquid that circulated their fragile bodies. I do not feel anything for human life. They are our prey and that is the natural order of things. A lion does not feel guilty for taking its sustenance so why should I? With that thought I allowed the burning in my throat to rise up to overwhelm me, unleashing the beautifully ferocious beast within.

I saw Heidi's exquisite body enter and I knew what was to follow. Aro had chosen her when she was just human. Even as a lesser being she was beautiful enough to catch many vampires' eyes and Aro knew that as an immortal this would turn out to be a gift. Her beauty was unforgettable and could not be ignored. There were rumours that one of the Cullen clan could match her but I found such whispers ridiculous. With Heidi before me it seemed inconceivable that another could be near as beautiful. They could not resist her when she was human so, when she became one of us, no one stood a chance. She could project images and illusions of desire and make humans subject to her subconscious bidding. As if she needed any of that. Every man in Volterra would have followed her for her body alone but I knew that some of the Volturi preferred female blood at times for its somewhat sweeter taste so her immortal talents meant that she could lure women as well. My, had she procured a bounty today. I smelled each of their different scents before I saw them. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply. There had to be at least fifty with her, maybe more. The burning in my throat was growing to a height of acute pain and then… they came. Heidi ushered them all into the room. It took all of my restraint to not launch on the man who had the distinct air of a college professor, standing not ten feet from me. He was so close. Just two steps and I'd have him. Wait, I told myself. Wait for the doors to close then they shall be trapped without anywhere to run. As if perfectly on cue I heard the loud crash of the doors slamming shut and then… all hell broke loose.

As I sunk my teeth into my third, a woman this time, I couldn't help but think that if this was hell I was glad to be damned. The screaming set a mood in the air that only egged my ferocity on. It was the sweetest pleasure, losing control this way. I was sure in that moment that a force of nature could not have stopped me in my frenzy and yet something much less significant managed to with just a single glance…

Standing against the wall opposite the door was a girl. My god, if Aro had wanted a more alluring specimen than Heidi he would have found her impossibly more valuable than the Cullens, even for all their useful skills. Even with a look of sheer terror vandalizing her young and angelic face she was beautiful. Dare I even say it, more so then any other of my kind.


Okay so that was chapter one! I already have two and three written but if you want to see it I need to see some reviews. Okay, I'm sorry for the blackmail but I would just love to know if you like the story and if there is any way I can improve it for you.

Thanks for reading.
