Prologue
Flashback
Bella stood at the altar. Her hands rested in the hands of the man in which she was about to devote her whole life to. A bright smile was plastered on her face as she looked up at the tall dark haired man. They had finished reciting their vows and exchanged their rings. The officiator was just about to make it final, "I pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss your bride." A giggle escaped Bella's lips as she stood on her tip toes to meet her new husband's lips. It was the happiest she had ever been.
Just as the two broke their first kiss as husband and wife a crash from the back startled the crowd and a scream pierced their ears as chaos soon flooded the scene.
End Flashback
Izzy's Point of View
I was sitting on a window sill, lost in my memories when someone had tapped me on the shoulder. I turned away from the window, from the darkness of the night and was face to face with a seven year old girl rubbing her eyes.
"Izzy, I can't sleep," she whined. I gave her a small smile and replied, "Do you think you'll sleep better if you lay with me?" She nodded and a small but tired smile appeared on her face. I got down from my spot at the sill and walked over to a rusty old full sized bed. The little girl climbed up from one side and I the other. She got underneath the covers but I remained on top. I put an arm around her and she nestled in my chest. I knew my skin was cold for her but somehow it brought her comfort.
I started to play with my ring which now hung around my neck and was about to get lost in my thoughts once again when the little girl quietly asked, "Are you thinking about him again?" I closed my eyes. It was an innocent question yet it still stabbed my non-beating heart.
"Yeah, honey, I'm thinking about him." If I could cry, I would have but that was impossible as a vampire.
"Maybe you should sleep. Sleep always makes me happy." I just smiled.
"I know."
"Izzy?"
"Hm?"
"Can you sing me that lullaby?" Another stab. I cursed myself for ever humming it to her in the first place.
"No problem sweetie." The pain was screaming in my chest as I hummed the lullaby. The lullaby that was made for me by the man who said he loved me. I continued to torture myself until the little girl started to breathe deeply and had fallen asleep.
I'm Isabella Marie Black. People know me as Isabella "Izzy" McAverty. People also believe that I'm 17. Though I look it I'm actually 95. I'm also a vampire.
