The heavy warmth that surrounded me pulled me deeper into the water. Only the problem with this water was that it was sticky and smelled of iron. I hated it. I tried my very hardest to push through these waters but it was starting to flush out my movements. In my last attempt to survive, I swung my hand free of the water. "Bella.." A voice said. Oh, how I wanted to scream at the walls with joy. 'Yes yes! Please pull me out!' I was so relieved when a cold such familiar stone hand started pulling me up. The moment I broke free from the waters that's when I notice something was off. Edward wasn't holding me.

My eye flew open.

Where was I?

I took in my surroundings. Beige walls, marble white floors, red velvet sheets…

The Volturi.

That's when the events of yesterday flared in my mind:

"Kill me. Not him!"

Aro looked at me his red eyes melting into mine. I stared back in his catching a glance of Edward being held in a constricted grip. Aro made his way down the steps. His movements drinking in mine. "How extraordinary. You would give up your soul for someone like us? A vampire? A soulless monster.."

"Just get away from her." Edward had squealed.

I looked Aro hoping to avoid the gaze of Edward. Just by what he just said I could tell he was in pain. I knew just how much he was struggling to get lose from his capture. And it was heartbreaking to see. "You don't know anything about a soul."

Aro said something in Italian and then he placed his eyes on mine again. This time, he stayed silent. Not even daring to move. Although something told me he already had. That's when Edward let out torture grunts. Struggling even more. "NO!" He shouted at Aro.

Aro only kept his gaze on me as I saw Edward and Alice being forced out of the Volturi sights. His face reflecting a mixture of emotion I couldn't identify.

I could hear the pain Edward was in I could hear his desperate grunts. I could even hear Alice's heels against the marble surface. I couldn't take it. This was torture. I wanted to run to Edward. Climb into his arms and let him run far from this horrendous place. Leaving the Volturi in shock at what was happening. But this wouldn't happen. That's when his final hurrah come to an end. "Bella...BELLA! BELLA!"

I fell to my knees. Tears overflowing. This was it. It was finally happening. Edward was leaving. Edward was leaving and this time he was not coming back.

I stared at the sheet. What surprised me the most was that I was still alive. Afterall did I not turn myself in for Edward's death sentence? Why had they kept me alive?

Possibly because they don't like overstressed blood. A small voice screamed in my head.

I had to grin. I couldn't help it. In this situation, it seemed like the best medicine. My enjoyment lasted only a few seconds though because soon enough my stomach twisted and turned in all type of spoiled knots. I was a little nervous. I had faced death once with James. He had been so consumed with killing me after he caught a whiff of my scent.

"You brought a snack." he had said. The moment the word snack came into play everyone had rushed to defend me. Esme had pushed me behind her a protective sense being emitted from her. The little action would have made a blush fall on my cheeks but I was scared. "The girl is with us." Carlisle had said. His voice non-threatening but still displayed his dominance. "I think it is best you leave."

The more reasonable of the new vamps called Laurent had simply held his hands up in defense. "We can see the game is over. We will go now." With that, Edward, Alice, and Emmett had rushed to get me in the jeep.

In the end, I had still ended up being caught by James.

I tore the memory out of my head. Death was peaceful at least from what I remember and I had made the choice to save Edwards life. I could deal with this. I had pulled the blanket from my legs when a hand stopped me.

"Ah, Good morning Isabella Swan. Did you rest well?"

I turned my head to meet the gaze of the voice. It was a female. A warm and friendly smile had been placed on her face. This female wore a short mahogany dress which exposed her tan legs. Her dark brown eyes matched her wavy hair which pulled up into an updo. A few strands fell out of it nonetheless making her seem more beautiful. I was speechless. This female's touch was not cold like most vampires I had met. It was warm. That's when I noticed that bite marks had been made all over her right arm. They looked just like the one I had except it was more concealed. "Y-you are a human?" I asked

This caused the woman to chuckle lightly. "Yes. Just as you are. Where you expected to be greeted by an immortal?" She said in a thick Hispanic accent.

I blinked at her surprised. "I mean..Yes actually."

She chuckled again helping me up. "It is understandable. However, the Volturi thinks it would be best if humans greeted humans. Because..well some of the vampires can get a bit out of control around a human."

I ran a hand through my hair. Jasper's face coming in my mind. "Yeah, I could understand that."

The female handed me a pile of clothes and soaps nodding her head. "Here is your new attire. I will lead to the showers where you can freshen up. We must hurry however, You will be meeting with Master Aro so he can give you your schedule and you also will be speaking with him later today."

"My schedule?" I asked confused

"Yes, all humans in the Volturi are given a working position. They have a schedule that changes every month and must be follow through properly. Any mistakes could result in punishment."

"Punishment? What kind?"

The female looked down at her red heels her smile lowering a bit.

"That depends on how big the mistake is."

I nodded. Obviously not wanting to push her further or get her in trouble. "I understand."

With that, she lifted her head up once more. The warm smile brought back to her face. Grasping my arm as she leads me toward the back room.


~25 minutes later~

The shower I had was very uncomfortable. No sounds of shuffling or even a few voices filled my ears. Only the water spraying all over me. But it wasn't all bad. The shower had given me time to collect my thoughts and the soap I had smelled like flowers. Matching with the shampoo and conditioner. This made me think of Arizona because of the little vegetation. It also made me think of the flower patch I had once found with Edward but I quickly pushed that to the side. I did not want to think of Edward today. I finally stepped out of the shower looking at the clothes I was given while drying myself off.

Black floral lingerie, black Long Sleeved, short, empire shaped dress with a leather belt engraved with a rose, Very thin white ballerina socks and dark buckle flats to complete the look.

Sigh.

I quickly put the clothes on hating how the dress looked on me. I went to the mirror trying to get used to the new look when the female opened the door quietly. "I was afraid you were still showering."

I shook my head. "No, I'm out. Just getting used to these clothes." -I paused- "Why can't I wear something less exposing?"

She sighed. "Miss Isabella trust me, I would love to give you something less formal, Unfortunately, My hands are tied. I was requested to give you that outfit. By one of the immortals."

The woman stood up her movement comforting and gentle as she fixed my hair. "Miss Isabella please do not frown the day is just beginning. Everything will be fine."

I watched her mess with my hair for a bit until she laid it down. Her movements reminding me of Esme. At least she had not put it up. The moment she finished she made her way out of the bathroom with me following behind.


The walk was long and distressing. Torches were lit on each of the stone structure to give out a dim light. It was still enough for people to see. Carvings of roses filled each structure making it more bearable. While we walked The woman or Rae as she had told me talked about how she had stumbled across a library filled with books. It was a little nice not to mention eased my tension a bit. However the moment I saw other vampires walk pass us I could not help but stare. Rae had noticed this and squeezed my hand to make me look at her.

"You must not stare Miss Isabella, You could signal someone."

"Signal someone how?"

Rae sighed a bit. Lowering her voice. "A Feeder."

"A Feeder? Aren't all vampires a feeder?"

"No honey, Feeders are vampires that feed on a specific type of humans who..get a type of kick out of it. If you look at one a certain way you could be mistaken for one."

I looked at her arm. "Is that what happened to you?"

She nodded. "When I first got here I was unaware of the stare. My guide wasn't as kind as most, so they blatantly forgot to tell me. The moment I finished my work I had went to the library to read a book when I was approached by one of the immortals. Rebecca."

"I see. Did it ever hurt? Even after?"

Rae shook her head. "You get use to it after a while."

I decided it be best not to speak further on the topic. For the rest of the way we were silent.

The moment we stepped into the room. Aro sat there with a paper in his hand. His red eyes caught mine once again before a smile filled his features.

"Miss Bella how wonderful it is to see you."

I kept silent. He didn't deserve a compliment. He didn't deserve a simple thank you. I wasn't even going to give him a head nod and nothing would change that. Realizing I wasn't going to budge he clapped his hands together speaking. "Well Miss Bella I'm sure Miss Rae has told you of our arrangements for mortals Yes?"

Once again I stayed silent. Watching his moves like a hawk. So many frustrations were filling my head right now. Why was Aro, one of the leaders of the Volturi, actually treating me with respect? Why was he gazing into my soul and more importantly:

Why could I not look away?

Aro chuckled lightly. "I suppose I will take that as a yes. Now here in the Volturi mortals start with the lowest position cleaning. Today Miss Rae will show you where you will clean for this first month." Aro handed me the piece of paper his hand grazing mine causing me to flinch. He looked at me seeing my response. Pure concern and confusion filling his features as I looked away. "Miss Bella is everything alright?" I nodded.

I could feel Rae shifting to turn toward me. Also concerned. "Everything is fine. I was just a little startled." I was positive that my face was as red as a beet. Aro cool hands found my chin forcing me to look at him.

"Are you sure Miss Isabella? Your face is quite red."

"Positive."

For a second we stayed like that looking into the gaze of one another. There was so much going on in his eyes. I was so sure that my heart would jump out of my chest from the intense look he was giving me.

Wait why am I feeling this way?

Just as soon as I thought I would lose it he let go of my chin. "Very well, For your first arrangement you will clean The master rooms. Leave nothing untouch."

I nodded trying to calm the redness on my face down. I held the sheet of paper looking at what room to clean.

Lucky me its the Volturi themselves.

I sighed making my way toward the door. My wheels almost on top of Rae's Once she was out of sight I felt myself lose my footing and saw the ground getting closer. That was until I was caught by a pair of strong arms. These arms were around my waist which made my face turn even more red. I could feel his breath on my neck his grip tightening a bit.

"One more thing Miss Bella." He said in a low but oddly seductive tone. "Mortals Intrigue me."
