B-POV
She felt his body against hers before he'd even uttered a word, "Bella," he whispered and she involuntarily shivered.
"Caius?" Bella asked slowly, her mouth sneering around the name
"Where have you been?" he asked her
"Busy, I had to hunt so that the feast tonight would be bearable."
"Why do you continue with that way of life? They left you." He kissed her neck and looked up at her
"I don't enjoy killing humans. I don't enjoy the taste." She told him and turned in his embrace
He kissed her mouth and led her out of their chambers.
"I still cannot believe you are mine." He whispered as they entered the throne room
'Only you think I'm yours.' She thought as she took in the room. It still took her breath away, even though she had been at the headquarters for over 50 years. Bella looked around the room and saw someone she never thought she'd see again. She slowly felt herself change her outward appearance from her normal 5'4", brown hair, golden eyes to a tall 5'9" platinum blonde with the crimson eyes of a hungry, human killing, vampire.
"Who do you see?" Caius asked
"Somebody from my past life." She said and went over the person. He was tall and even from the back he was beautiful. He had movie star looks and even as he turned around Bella knew his eyes were gold.
"Carlisle," she choked out
"Hello. You must be Caius' new lover." He appraised her and nodded
"Yes, my name is Alexandra." Bella inclined her head and Carlisle took her hand
"Carlisle Cullen, amazing to meet you." He kissed her hand and then turned to go talk to Aro.
She shifted back into her normal look and went to Caius.
"I need to know if his family is with him." I whispered in his ear
"What will you give me in return?"
"What haven't I given you?" she asked him
"I will think of something." He told her and kissed her forehead.
Bella shuddered and watched him walk away. She turned on her heel and walked out of the room to change for the night. She slipped out of her long medieval dress and into a pair of super skinny jeans with black stiletto thigh high boots over them. She then grabbed a white camisole tank top and her leather jacket. All Bella knew was she had to get out of the embassy. She then felt a thought form in her head
'His family is in Forks. I understand if you must leave. If you leave, you will never be welcome here again"
Her mouth turned into a grim line as she grabbed her helmet and shoved a wallet into her pocket. Her bike was parked outside the embassy. She had upgraded from the bike she'd had while she was human to a black Honda FireBlade. She slung herself over the bike and pulled her helmet on. Bella was in France by sunrise, she pulled off to an inn and went about finding a flight that would allow her bike. She also thought, about seeing Edward again, finding all the things she'd left behind when she'd been changed into a vampire, all those years ago.
E-POV
Edward pushed the gas pedal down as far as it would go. His car roared to life and within 3.5 seconds he was already to sixty. He'd traded up, the Volvo for an Acura NSX, the Volvo held too many memories. He was driving back from California, he'd been hunting and was eager to get back home. Carlisle had been to Italy to check in with the Volturi and Edward had made him promise he'd ask around for Bella. He looked to his left and saw a black streak go past him on the freeway. He floored the engine and was soon well over 200 mph. He caught up with the bike and smirked. Edward loved to play these games. They kept pace until they made it well past the Washington border. The bike pulled off in Olympia to gas up and he followed. He wanted to meet the guy on the bike. He watched as the bike pulled into a chevron right off of I-5 and begin to gas up. He pulled next to him at the pump and got out of his car. Edward looked up slowly, starting with the stiletto boots,
'So he's female.' He thought,
He eyed her ass and noted it was amazing, he made his way up and saw she had an ample chest even under her black leather jacket. He stopped suddenly at her face though.
'No," he thought, 'They got her…'
"The race was fun." Bella said without looking up.
"Yeah. Thanks for that." He watched her head snap up and freeze.
"You…" she whispered.
In a flash he saw her throw her helmet on and straddle her bike. Once more he watched her streak away knowing instantly where she was headed.
