Hi ^^.
So, this is a new story and it's only going to be a few chapters long. This is just something to get me writing again (: I'll soon be back to Strained Nerves and Fairytales Connected ^^.

Disclaimer: Stephenie Meyer owns the Volturi, I just own Carmen.

"Goddamnit, where the fuck is our food? Heidi!" I roared, slamming my hands down on my throne and thrusted forwards.
"Caius."
I skidded to a halt, my hand resting on the doorknob. "What?" I growled under my breath as my brother, Aro, appeared at my side. He laid his hand on mine. "Calm. Down."
"She should've brought them here two hours ago." My eyes were resting on the dark mahogany door. I felt the rage soaring through every dead, cold veins and gritted my teeth together.
"Don't." His penetrating gaze was pealing off my skin. I let out a sharp sigh and speeded back to my chair, muttering curses under my breath.
Marcus came parading into the room, sitting down on the left side of Aro. "I'm hungry," he stated monotoneously.
"She can't even do her job properly. We should just-"
"Caius!" Aro barked, crossing the room within a split-second and glaring at me. "Stop being such an infant."
"If Heidi would've came on time this wouldn't have been necessary."
"Lay of off Heidi."
I rolled my eyes. That excuse for a vampire was seriously getting on my nerves. Thinking she was almighty, like that. She was nothing more than a filthy cockroach, a disgrace to the Volturi. I growled again, placing my head on one arm.
"Felix, will you go check what takes Heidi so long?" Aro commanded. Felix nodded and stormed off through the door.
I huffed. "Bet she's drain-fucking someone in the closet."
"ENOUGH," Aro's voice boomed through the room. The red in his black eyes was thrusting flames at me. I scowled back at him.
Then he sat down in the middle, pinching the bridge of his nose and squeezing his eyes shut.
Felix was back within moments. "Master, Heidi had some trouble on her way - she apologizes and will be right here."

Apologizes, my ass.

I pulled my eyebrows together as venom pooled in my mouth. The scent of human blood drifted into my nostrils and I clenched my fingers tighter around the arm support. It was a mingle of plain iron taste on my tongue, flowers and vanilla.
"The human with the vanilla scent is mine," I spoke, staring at the door.
Both Marcus and Aro nodded stiffly. Their stare was focused on the door.
The humans were close - I could hear their excited heartbeats as they walked through the hallway. Heels clicked on the marble floor, gasps filled the throneroom. The gazes were shifted towards us.
Aro stood up as Felix closed the doors. He and Demetri took place in front of it.
"Welcome, ladies and gentlemen in the throne room." He folded his hands together and plastered a smile on his face. There was content murmuring hearable.
On kid tugged on the sleeve of his mother. "Mommy, why do those men have red eyes?"
The humans started noticing that something was wrong. They gulped and their heartbeats accelerated. Perfect. Nothing tasted more delicious than fear.
I scanned the room, fluffing out scents. Where was it? The vanilla scent was so strong I had to gulp down buckets of venom. Where was it?
"Hey, let us out of the room!" A man shouted.
Jane and Alec appeared through a back door. "Shut it," Jane said, smiling devilishly. The man screamed in agony, dropping down to his knees.
"What the hell is going on here?" Someone at the back shouted.

Pathetic, frail, stupid humans.

The young boy started to wail, burying his head in his mothers coat. I bet Jane was going to take care of that one.
"I'm afraid you're not going to leave this room," Aro said, nodding towards Felix who hit the lights.
The humans started to scatter through the dark room. They couldn't see a darn thing, while we were in control - seeing their every move, hearing their every breath jagging against their airpipes. The vampires around me drifted off and soon your could hear the room filling with screams and cries. I smirked, walking off to find the one to who the vanilla scent belonged.
The humans all ran off in different directing, right into the open arms of the vampires. They were lucky the vampires took care of them quickly. I strided through the screaming mass, sniffing up scents. Felix had a womand pinned against the wall. She was trying to push him away, without the desired effect, of course.

I folded my hands behind my back as I made my way to the middle of the room. I was coming closer - I just knew it. I already dreamed about sinking my teeth into the fragile aorta. I licked my lips and looked around me. Then it hit me - I caught a whiff of it and whirled around.

There she was. The owner of that mouthwatering scent.

A girl, definitely not older then eighteen. Her curls were bloody red and her skin was almost see-though. I snuck up behind her, breathing in her scent - moaning. I hardened in my pants and pressed myself against her. She twirled around at the sound of it. Her electric green eyes looked at me. She wasn't scared though. Damn it. I stalked forwards - she didn't pace back, trying to stare me down.
"You don't know who you have in front of you."
She shook her head, her curls bouncing up and down. Oh God, she was so tempting - just one step away from me.

"Don't touch that one, Caius." Aro snuck up, tugging me back. "She's gonna be quite useful." And off he was.

I couldn't disobey, but that girl... her scent sent me off into a frenzy. Damn. I roared like a wild animal, grabbing a man behind me and throwing him into the wall. He didn't have the time to realize what was happening because I ripped my teeth through his skin and started gulping down the blood. He was kicking me, punching me in the face and I had just about enough of him. I squeezed his arm until the bone snapped. He jerked wildly and I kept on draining him, while he was screaming for help. His blood was tasting like dirt in comparison to that girl's. Fucking Aro with his fucking gifts obsession.
Then I moved on to the mother of the child. Her son was lying lifeless in front of her, so I didn't have any trouble with her. She didn't even protest when I sunk my teeth into her neck. She smelled like pancakes and sugar.
Soon, the room was full of carcasses. Except for the girl, my prey. I snarled, standing up and throwing another body away. I had overdone myself today - six humans. Still, I craved for her blood so badly.
Santiago turned on the lights. My eye caught that whore Heidi. I wished I could rip her apart the way she looked at me, licking her lips.
"Afton, Corin, clean up this mess," Aro said, turning around to our thrones.

There was one heartbeat in this room and it was coming from behind my throne. I could see one red strand of hair peeping out from behind it.

"You can come out, child. We're not going to hurt you," Aro almost purred. It made me want to puke.
She was trembling but did come out from behind the throne. Her eyes were spurred wide open and the way she stood there she looked more like a deer caught in the headlights.
"Why?" She asked, her eyes skipping from Volturi to Volturi.
Yeah, why, Aro?
Renata moved to Aro's side, though the human obviously didn't form any danger to Aro. I huffed, tapping my foot impatiently.
"You, child, are very special."
Jane's head snapped towards Aro, she glared and stalked off out of the room. Alec looked a bit lost, wanting to follow his sister - but curiosity won and he stayed. Eyeing up the human girl.
"Once turned - you will form a valuable addition to our coven."
"What if I don't want to be a part of your coven?"
Stubborn brat, did she even realize how lucky she was? "Then you'll be kept as my pet until you agree," I snarled, not looking at her.
Marcus raised one eyebrow at me.
The little girl didn't flinch. She just stood there.
Would she really rather be my pet than becoming one of the guards? Not that it would really matter - I would still find a way to-
"Alec, bring the girl to the left wing, then."
I blinked. Wait, what?
"You have a week to decide between joining us and death, after that we'll dispose of you," Aro stated, walking out of the room, before Alec hurried to the girl.
