As Bella nervously clung to Edward as they walked into the room where the Volturi sat eagerly waiting to meet Edward's mate. Bella looked up at a tall man with long black hair, Milky red eyes, and translucently white skin it looked very delicate Bella had the strange urge to touch his cheek to see if it was as soft as Edward's or Alice's. He stepped down from his throne and smiled at Bella.
"Hello I'm Aro" he said in a feather like voice.
"Leave her out of this" Edward growled.
"I wish her no harm I would just like to have her name" he smiled.
"B-Bella" she stuttered nervously.
"Bella? Your name fits you….your name means lovely" he grinned.
Bella blushed and Edward pushed her behind him a bit more.
"Now that this is settled may we go?" Edward asked.
"Oh please stay for a while…. I wish to get more acquainted with your human" Aro said as he held out his hand toward Bella.
"May I?"
Bella looked up at Edward hopelessly confused and Edward nodded. Bella took a breath and slowly placed her hand in his smooth cold one. Aro grinned and pulled her closes to him and breathed in deeply.
"Interesting I see nothing" Aro said sadly as he released Bella's hand.
"La tua cantante" he whispered.
Bella shivered when she felt his cold sweet breath on her skin.
"How can you stand to be so close to her?" Aro asked Edward in amazement.
"It's not without difficulty" Edward whispered.
Then Aro's gaze moved to Bella's he inhaled deeply again and smiled at her.
"Ii suo sangue canta pre me, otre ….. I've never felt anything like it before" Aro said as he looked at Bella's lips and smirked.
"Posso bacio Bella... Just once" Aro asked Edward with curiosity burning in his red eyes.
Edward looked uncomfortable then he looked at Bella with sad eyes.
"Fine" Edward said coldly.
Aro smiled at Bella and she backed away a bit she had no idea what was going on. Aro lightly caressed her cheek and Bella jumped from the coldness. Then Aro pressed his cold lips onto Bella's warm ones. Aro kissed Bella intensely Bella didn't know what to do so unthinkingly she wrapped her arms around his waist. After Aro released Bella from his stone grip she stumbled backwards a bit and her face turned bright red.
"May we leave now?" Edward asked in a vicious snarling voice.
"Yes….you may go….just make sure to turn her...soon" Aro whispered his eyes never leavening Bella.
Then Aro stroked Bella's cheek again his face getting dangerously close to hers.
"You shall make for an intriguing immortal…Isabella" he whispered as he released her.
"Go now ….. Please come again my friends!" Aro called.
As Edward grabbed Bella's hand and pulled her out the doors she turned around and seen Aro smiling at her.
Then Aro turned to his fellow Volturi members and smiled.
"Aro what was that about?" Marcus asked in a disapproving tone.
"I was simply curious" Aro sighed as he sat back down.
"Yes but that was highly inappropriate!" Caius sneered.
Aro laughed and ignored Caius's comment.
"Are you in love with the human?" Marcus asked.
"In love with Bella? In amore con Bella…..forse" Aro chuckled.
"What?" Jane shrieked. "How can you possibly say you might be in love with that….that stupid human?" she growled.
"Be calm sister" Alec whispered as he placed his hand on her shoulder.
"It's just an experiment Jane….no need to worry" Aro whispered.
