Immortal Tears
Preface
Aro of the Volturi:
The Cullen's were becoming too powerful. That was for certain. I couldn't let the Volturi's power over the vampire world go further into question than what it already was. Now that the Cullen's were serving as the patriots under our rule it would only be a matter of time before various other covens began to press against our laws, finding skillful ways of breaking our laws while not exactly breaking them. Luckily, I had a plan to stop the Cullen's. It was hard to keep my thoughts in check in order to not to make any official decisions before I had found a shield of my own. My shield's abilities weren't near the strength of Bella Cullen's abilities, but her power would suffice for the tasks at hand.
The first phase of my plan was already underway and would be completed in a matter of minutes due to another prize I had found. Aria was becoming increasingly useful. This plan wouldn't work without her. She was definitely the queen in this game of chess and the most wonderful part was that the Cullen's didn't even know she existed! I could dance out of joy! My plan was going to work, and quite well might I add.
Suddenly I heard the door behind me burst open and a voice as smooth as velvet snarled, "You will never get away with this Aro, it's simply impossible!" I smiled and turned to his golden eyes my fingers gently connecting with each other.
"We shall see. It seems to be working so far," I replied, my voice thick and sweet like a mixture of venom and poison running down the throat of every Cullen in the world.
