Chapter 1: Locked Up

(Onyx's POV)

I stood by the large window looking out over the city of Volterra. Aro likes to keep me hidden. Twenty years ago Aro turned me because I could influence the elements, even as a human. He wanted me as a secret weapon in case the Volturi ever had to go to battle; so naturally I haven't been in any fights yet. I missed the outside world. I've been in this castle since I was turned and Aro forbid me from leaving.

Familiar strong arms wrapped around my waist. I sighed and allowed him to kiss me. My mind wondered back to when I first came here.

"Happy birthday Onyx!" my best friend said while waking me up.

"Five more minutes Lilly." I mumbled while throwing the blankets over my head. She huffed and pulled the blankets off me.

"We didn't come all the way to Volterra Italy just so you could sleep," she said, "now get up." I groaned, but got up anyways.

"So we've done shopping," Lilly said as we ate lunch at a local restaurant, "what next?" I sighed and looked around.

"I don't really care." Lilly rolled her eyes.

"How about we go explore the city." She said after paying. We spent several hours wondering around the streets of Volterra. As the sun started to set, we decided to start to walk back to the hotel. We were walking along a large wall when Lilly stopped.

"What do you think is on the other side of those walls?" she asked.

"Clearly a castle." I stated referring to the large castle on the other side. I looked up at one of the windows and thought I saw someone standing there watching us. I quickly walked up to Lilly who had walked over to a gate.

"Come on Lilly." I said feeling that person's eyes on me.

"There's a pond in there." She smiled and opened the unlocked gate then walked into the garden.

"Lilly," I said running after her, "that gate is there for a reason."

"It's an abandoned castle," she said, "there's no one here it's only used for tours." I looked up at the window, but it was too dark now to see anything. Lilly stopped by the pond and smiled brightly at me.

"No." I said knowing what she wanted, "I'm not playing with the water." She gave me her puppy dog eyes and after a minute I gave in. I put my hand towards the water and we both watched as it rose from the pond.

After about thirty minutes of playing with the water I decided it was time leave. Lilly linked her arm through mine as we walked back to the hotel. I had the strangest feeling that we were being followed, but I dismissed it as nothing.

"That was a fun day." Lilly said as we climbed into our beds.

"Yes it was," I smiled, "thanks Lilly." She smiled and turned off the light.

"Happy eighteenth birthday Onyx." She said then fell asleep. I was drifting off to sleep when I thought I heard a door open. I tried to sit up, but black mist surrounded me and I lost my senses. When my sensed came back I was in a large room being held bridal style by a boy that looked to be my age. He had brown hair and red eyes which made me gasp.

"Put me down!" I said struggling in his hold. He smirked and let me go. I landed on my butt on the cold stone floor.

"Ouch." I looked around the room to see a short blonde girl that looked like the boy. I also saw two men on the other side of the room. One was very tall with black hair and the other was about six foot and had short dirty blonde hair. Then there were the three men sitting in chairs that looked like thrones. The man on the left had long brown hair. The one on the right had long blonde hair and the man in the middle had long black hair. They all had red eyes. The man in the middle seat stood up smiling as he walked towards me. I quickly stood up and tried to back away, but the boy grabbed my wrists and his hold was so tight that I winced.

"Hello my dear," the man said stopping in front of me, "what's your name?" I glared at him.

"Ya'll think you can kidnap me and expect that I'm going to tell you my name," I looked around again, "where's Lilly?"

"She's safe," the man said with amusement, "now your name." I didn't respond and he frowned.

"Dear I suggest you corporate," he said, "you will not be leaving this place and if you care about your friend you'll do as I say."

"Onyx." I said after a moment of hesitation and he smiled.

"Well Onyx welcome to your new home."

"Excuse me?" I said glaring at him.

"I've been made aware of your unusual gift," he said, "I'm confident that you will make a powerful vampire."

"What?" I asked afraid and he smiled.

"I believe you heard me," he looked at the boy behind me, "now you know where to take her Alec. I will be up in a few minutes." Before I could say anything Alec drug me out of the room and down a few halls. We entered a large dark room after a few minutes. The windows were covered with heavy red curtains and the rest of the furniture was the same red color. The comforter on the bed was also a dark red with curtains that closed all around it. The sheets were a black silk. Alec closed the door and pulled me over to the large bed where he pushed me down.

"Hay," I said sitting up, "you don't have to push." My heart picked up when his eyes roamed over my body. Before he could say anything, the man from before walked in smiling.

"Hello my dear," he said, "first off I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Aro and this is Alec." Alec crossed his arms looking impatient.

"Now," he said, "before you are turned I want to make something clear. Your friend will be safe as long as you do what I say. Also, Alec here will be turning you. When you wake up you will be his mate."

"Excuse me?" I said and he smiled.

"Alec observed you in the garden, he's quiet taken with you." Aro looked between me and Alec, "yes you two will make a wonderful couple."

"Absolutely not," I said, "I don't even know him."

"That will change over time my dear," he said, "and I'm afraid you don't have a choice. Now I'll leave you two alone." I watched as Aro left and Alec locked the door. What am I supposed to do now? I jumped when he was sitting next to me on the bed. I froze as he leaned in and inhaled deeply.

"You are untouched," he said and smiled a little and I felt my face get bright red.

"W-What," I stuttered and he chuckled.

"That will change," he said, "but I wonder if you want it to change before or after you're a vampire." Wow, this guy doesn't waste time in getting to the point.

"I ummm..." what else was there to say? Before I knew it he pushed me back onto the bed and hovered over me. A shiver spread through my body as he brushed his lips against mine.

"Well Onyx," he murmured, "what do you want?" I looked into his red eyes and made up my mind. I wasn't getting out of this. The sooner I accept this the better it will be. I pulled his lips to mine and he smiled against my lips.

"You are in thoughts." Alec said pulling me from my memory. I sighed and looked back out the window.

"I just hate being locked up." I said. Over the years I've come to accept Alec as my mate. I'd have to admit that he makes an amazing mate. He listens to me when I need to talk and takes care of me. However, he's very demanding, controlling, and he's just cold most of the time. He's not mean to me, but he's not extremely nice either.

"I know," Alec said closing the curtains, "but you can't leave; Aro has made that clear." Before I could respond Alec was kissing me again. His hands moved up to unzip my dress as he pushed me towards the bed. I sighed and parted my lips for him as we fell onto the bed.

Alec lifted me up and slipped me under the covers and hovered on top of me not breaking the kiss. He had already taken off my cloths and his. The only clothing was his black underwear. His hands explored my naked body as his lips moved slowly down my body. When I moved my fingers through his hair slowly he purred. He lifted his head and kissed me again while wrapping his arm around me and supporting his weight with the other. Somehow he had removed his underwear and I could feel myself panicking a little.

"This will hurt for a minute," he said breaking the kiss, "but one thing you'll learn about me is that I enjoy causing pain." With that he pushed in me and I whimpered in pain making him smirk. Alec didn't give me time to get used to this new feeling. Instead he moved slowly and my whimpers turned to moans.

Alec's lips roamed over my body as we lay under the covers. I moaned as he nibbled along my neck and he purred. Alec kissed me before speaking.

"Tomorrow I will take you out to the garden." He said and I sighed.

"Can't we go to town?" I asked.

"No," he replied sternly, "Aro doesn't want you leaving the castle grounds."

"We won't leave Volterra," I replied, "just around town."

"Onyx." He growled and I pursed my lips together. Alec sighed and kissed me again.

"Aro keeps you here because he wants you to be a secret," Alec said breaking the kiss, "I want you to be safe." Before he could respond he covered my lips with his.
