A Doomed Existance

Edward Cullen POV

Volterra, Italy. It could be considered one of the most religious cities on earth, close with the Vatican. But Volterra wasn't peaceful and quiet like most assumed. The monsters that all the civilans thought were banished and killed still existed, even after all the centuries that past. Edward Anthony Masen Cullen was one of those monsters.

The Volturi were a group of vampires that lived in Volterra, Italy who were the judge, jury, and prosecuter of the vampire world. They lived to uphold the secert of vampires. They fed off the blood of humans, Edward Cullen did not. He was born into vampire life expected to drink only the blood of animals. Edward had a gift of reading minds, any mind anywhere. Aro, the leader of the Volturi wanted and needed Edward's gift. 5 years ago to the day, Aro had offered Edward the chance to rule with him as his right hand man. It was an offer Edward reluctantly chose to take, and it meant leaving his family behind for good.

He had spent 5 long years living in Volterra, helping Aro keep peace and justice. And on this day, September 13th, 2009 Aro was throwing a grand affair to celebrate the anniversary of Edward's arrival. All day Edward and Aro were in the throne room, discussing future plans and such. That's when he smelled the beautiful intoxicating scent of human coming toward them. It wasn't time for Aro to feed yet, so he was rather confused on why a human was being brought into the chamber. "Edward my dear companion, in the spirit on anniversary, I couldn't help myself so I got you a present!" Aro exclaimed as an incredibly beautiful human walked through the door of the chamber on the arm of Felix. "I got you a slave Edward! You're the only person without one, so I bought you one!" he explained while Edward never took his eyes off the beautiful girl forced to kneel in front of him. "Thank you Aro, if you don't mind I would like to take her back to her quarters to help me prepare for the evening." he said standing up and reaching his hand out to the girl.
