A/N Hello! This is just a snippet of my newest fic. I hope you enjoy and are intrigued by what's to come. The next chapter should be done soon. Hope you like!
Chapter One
Aro was tired, and sick of incompetent humans who couldn't carry out even the simplest of tasks, so much so that he was idling on the thought of eliminating his entire workforce. He tapped the stone arm of his throne. Oh, how eternity was tedious.
"Any thoughts on an interview date?" He asked his brothers.
Marcus sighed, but did not respond with any words of help.
Caius, he just laughed, "Get Heidi to find someone."
"Heidi found the last one, look how that turned out." Aro muttered, before a bright idea came to mind.
He hadn't been able to see into the thoughts of the irritating Isabella Swan, but he had however, been able to get Santiago to do a full background check on the eighteen year old. It had proved fruitful. Isabella had a sister, a secret from the Cullen's. She was several years older, far more beautiful than her younger sibling, and worked as a secretary for a CEO in New York. She was a perfect candidate, not only would she be a great addition to the Volturi, but she would be leverage in case the Cullen's broke their word regarding Isabella's turning.
"Never mind, brothers, I have someone in mind."
Marcus spoke for once, "What do you have planned?"
There was a grin from Aro, "Only something small."
The phone beside her buzzed, it wasn't her work phone, it was her personal one. Broken out of her Sunday afternoon doze, Holly answered it.
"Hello?"
The voice of her police chief, loving father answered, "Holly! How have you been? When are you visiting?"
She took a second to answer, "I've been great, busy with work as always." She lied, "I'll visit soon. Did you need me?"
"You've had mail sent to this address; I need your address to mail it to you."
"Oh." Holly was confused; she'd never lived in Forks. She'd always lived with her Auntie in California, away from her crazy mother and lonely father. When Bella was born, they asked to regain custody of Holly, but after seeing the auntie and niece pair together, they decided to leave her be. Holly Swan was forgotten about, not that she felt bitter about, it was as much her fault as theirs.
Despite the confusion, she prattled off her address to Charlie who wrote it down on a pad. They exchanged awkward goodbyes. Holly feeling slight guilt at never getting to know the man who tried so hard to be a father, he even missed out on Bella.
Still, old habits die hard. The call ended and Holly glanced up at her laptop. So much work, so little time. She was a secretary, a very good secretary for a very bad business man. It was a wonder he kept the business afloat with the amount of mistakes he made. However, Holly was grateful for a job at the end of the day; she was paid well and had a lovely apartment in the middle of the city.
Sighing, she got comfortable on her living room sofa and began tapping away her work. Realizing, with a frown, that her life was beginning to get really, really dull.
Charlie looked at Bella and raised his eyebrows, "You need to invite her to the wedding, and your Auntie Kate."
At that moment, Alice chose to let herself into the Swan residence, eyes gleaming and a wide smile on her face. "Invite who?"
"You need to tell them at some point, Bells."
Bella huffed, "Alice, I have an older sister and we need to add her to the wedding guest list."
Alice's eyes went wide, she was stunned. All this time and she'd never saw a vision about another Swan, nor had Edward heard a thought. It was strange; Bella and Rosalie meant so much to her, they were her sisters. Why would Bella pretend her own sister didn't exist?
Instead of asking questions she smiled, "Of course, what's her name?"
"Holly Swan."Charlie answered, pride in his voice, even if Bella had turned her back on the conversation.
That's the end of it folks. Favourite and follow to be notified of chapter two. Till next time!
