Love In Fates Hands CHAPTER 1
Seven Years Later
Bella POV
It had been a completely uneventful day. Edward, Emmett and Rose had gone on a three day hunting trip. Esme, Alice and Renesmee had gone shopping in Port Angeles for the entire day. Carlisle was working a double shift at the hospital, due to a tour bus going off the road and rolling over. That just left me and Jasper in the large mansion all day long. After dusting everything twice, polishing Edwards piano, and every other surface in the mansion. I was out of things to do. I tried calling Charlie but he and Sue were away for the weekend on a camping trip. I picked up the phone to call my mother, after dialing the numbers to her cell phone, I was irritated that it went straight to her voice mail which her inbox was full and I could not leave a message. I flipped the phone shut with an unnecessary over exaggerated huff.
Jasper came into the room at that minute with a somber look upon his face. "Bella, Bella, Bella .You are really driving me crazy with your mood swings." He said rubbing his temples.
"Sorry Jazz, I just. I am going crazy." I said looking around at the perfectly detailed Great Room. "I think I need to get out of here for awhile." I said to him walking to the door and grabbing my keys off the key hook.
"Good day for a drive, have fun Bella." Jasper said to me walking to the library.
I walked out the door only to practically run Jake over. "Oh! Jake, I m sorry!" I said hugging him to greet him.
"Hey Bells!" Jake said in his always excited to see me tone. "I was just wondering if Nessie made it back yet." He was smiling ear to ear and it looked like he had just phased from wolf form because he was just wearing a pair of black denim shorts and no shirt, typical Jake apparel.
"No, I m not expecting them until tonight. Alice went with them." I said to him in a laugh."
"Sure, sure." He said nodding and walking back down the steps. "I guess I will just come back by later then, Dad did say he wanted me to clean out the garage today." Jake said as his smile fell a bit.
I smiled at Jake. "I was just going to for drive. I could take you there, if you didn t want to run back." I hadn t spent quality one on one time with Jacob in forever.
He looked at me as his giant smile spread back across his face. "Sure, you could help me if you wanted. I wouldn t mind." His white teeth glistened against his russet colored skin.
"Sure!" I said sounding only a little over excited at his invitation. We then hopped in my Mercedes and pulled away from the Mansion.
The whole ride there all Jake did was talk about things him and Nessie had done, and how cute she was when he took her fishing and she had to touch the fish and got all squirmy about it. He roared with laughter recalling the memory.
It made me happy that my daughter was such a significant roll in his life. I was happy that Jacob was the one that would be there for her for the rest of her life. I often wondered what was next for them.
Edward and I had been dreading the day Ren finished maturing. She just had her 7th birthday the week before. She was a small person, dainty like Alice. She had the same facial features as her father, only hers were soft and delicate. Her hair was golden brown just as his was, but her eyes, she had my eyes. Big and Brown like a cup of coffee. They could melt your heart. However her attitude was that of a seventeen year old. She was my and Edwards child through and through. She was stubborn as hell with a short fuse, but when she was happy, everyone was happy.
I smiled thinking of my beautiful daughter.
"Bells?" Jake said concerned. We had been sitting in his driveway for I don t even know how long, as I sat there distant in thought of Ren, staring out the windshield with a dazed look on my face.
I shook my head and looked at him. "I m sorry Jake." I apologized still coming out of my trance. "I got caught up in memories." I said smiling at him.
Jake opened the door to my car and stepped out. Billy came wheeling out of his house and waved. Bella Swan! He said as a smile just as large as Jakes spread across dark aged face. His hair was black with a lot of white and gray streaks, but his eyes still glimmered like the sun glistening off the lake.
I walked up to greet him and give him a hug. I didn t bother correcting him on my last name. After seven years, I gave up and just let him call me what he wanted.
"I just spoke to your dad about twenty minutes ago." He said smile still spread across his face. "He said Sue is feeling under the whether and they are coming home tonight." He looked me over and then turned to Jake.
"Well boy, that garage isn t going to clean it self." He smiled and winked at me and then spun him self around and headed back into his house.
Jake gave me a look and started laughing as he started heading towards his garage. I followed him.
We worked through the rest of the day hours moving boxes and organizing tools. Jake was grateful for my super human speed. We finished just as the sun had finally set.
I looked around the now neat and organized garage. "Looks like a different place doesn t it." I said sitting down on a stack of tires by the door.
I said my goodbyes to Jake and Billy and set back on the road to the mansion. It started raining shortly after I pulled out of La Push. I loved driving in the rain. All of a sudden something darted in front of me and I swerved the car out of reaction. My car spun out of control due to hydroplaning.
I gripped the wheel so hard I actually bent it slightly. "What in the hell was that?" I said aloud to nobody but my self. It was too fast to be an animal. I rolled down the window and took a deep breath inhaling my surroundings. Vampire.
I got out of my car and took another deep intake of the scent. It smelled familiar, yet I couldn t place my finger on who it was. Not any of my family.
I went to say hello, but as the word went to came out my cell phone rang. "Bella whatever you are doing, stop and leave and come home." It was Alice and she sounded hysterical.
"Alice what is wrong? Is Ren okay?" I said in a panic.
"Bella it s not changing you need to leave where you are right now!" Alice said sound more erratic. "Don t ask questions Bella, just move!"
"Okay." I said slightly confused and more nervous on what could possibly be going on at home. I turned to get back into my car only to slam right into a hard dark figure. It made me jump and take a few steps back.
"Bella" Said the large dark figure with a sneer. Then I heard him chuckle. I knew that laugh. Felix.
"Felix what are you doing here?" I asked with a serious tone, trying to disguise the fact that I was scared. Felix was a very intimidating person, and our history together was always frightening. The last time I seen him, seven years ago, he promised to kill me that night.
"Aro requests your presence." He said matter of factly. He then put his arm in the air and waved and two more dark figures emerged from the woods. After the figures approached us I recognized one as Demetri, Felix s partner in crime, also the best tracker in the world.
The other figure I did not recognize at all. Until he spoke and instantly I knew this other figure was Santiago. They looked at each other and talked in hushed tones that even my super hearing couldn t understand what they were saying.
My phone rang again but before I could answer it Felix swiped it out of my grasp and crumpled it into pieces under his hand. He smiled wickedly at me. She will find out soon enough. He said again with a sneer. Felix then grabbed me by the arm and pushed me into the back seat of the car. He then got into the drivers seat and Santiago in the passenger seat, as Demetri joined me in the back seat. Probably to be sure I didn t escape. I looked at him as he sat down, but then quickly adverted my eyes from his stare. I could still feel him staring at me as I looked out the window.
My mind was racing. Why did Aro request my presence? What was my family going to do? Were they going to be there? Did I do something wrong to offend the Volturi? I couldn t stop thinking of what my future might hold.
I looked up just in time to see the Exit information signs for Seattle. Felix turned towards the airport and I swallowed hard.
We got our four tickets and boarded our plane to Volterra. I didn t try to escape, I knew with Demetri there my efforts would be futile. I sat on the plane, thoughts and questions still running my mind crazy.
Demetri put his arm around the back of my seat. The feelings of his skin touching me make my nerves twitch like jumping beans. It was like an electric current running from his body to mine. I tried to inch away from him but his arm just moved with me. I looked at him and he winked at me and went back to his book that he was reading. I just sat there and stared at him with my jaw gaping a little. What was he doing, was he trying to piss Edward off?
The pilot made an announcement that we would be landing shortly and I felt a ball of worry make my stomach churn. I didn t like this one bit.
Demetri grabbed my hand gently and whispered in my ear. "Just follow me and don t look so scared. We will not harm you." His breath against my ear makes me shiver, but the words did make me feel a little more at ease.
I nodded at him to let him know I understood and stood up with him. He still had a hold of my hand. He looked back and me, smiled and then gently squeezed my hand as he led me off the plane. Felix and Santiago were ahead of us but we all walked to the south exiting area of the airport where a black B.M.W was waiting for us. We all climbed in the back seat and I had that uneasy feeling forming in my stomach again.
As we arrived to the Volturi castle I was at my wits end. My head hurt from thinking so much. I missed my family and was worried about what they were doing or thinking right now.
Demetri still held my hand, I knew I should resist. It was Edwards hand to hold, not Demetri s. However, I figured it was just to be sure to keep me close. I once again walked down the long hall that led to the Throne Room. As we reached the door Felix pushed them open and he stood there with his hand on the door. Demetri, his hand still in mine, led me into the room and in front of Caius, Aro, Marcus, Jane and Alec. I stood before them unsure of what was next to happen.
"Dear Bella!" Aro said clapping his hands together. "It is always a pleasure to see you, Bella." He looked as if he was forming a plan in his mind.
Marcus stood and spoke his voice clear and his words were thoughtful. "I am sure, Bella that you are quite concerned as to why we have asked you to be before us on this day."
I nodded and then decided it best to vocally answer him. "Yes, I have been very concerned." I said, feeling that ball of worry move up to my throat.
Marcus looked to Caius and then to Aro and then back to me. He looked at me for a silent moment and then finally spoke. "We have issues with the fact that your daughter is fraternizing with a human. Especially that of a shape shifter, this union cannot go on. She has broken our rules and we must destroy her and the shape shifter."
"NO!" I broke in over him. "You can not destroy my Baby!" I pleaded.
Caius sneered at me and Aro looked concerned but did not interject. Marcus continued to speak.
"We felt that you might react this way, dear Bella. So we have an alternative for you. We would like you and your daughter to join our coven. If this is done, the shape shifter and your daughter will be spared."
I dropped to my knees and started sobbing dry sobs. Demetri lowered himself to me and put his hand on my shoulder. He bent to my ear and whispered. "It s not so bad here, agree with them, spare your daughter."
I couldn t help my self I attached my self to Demetri dry sobbing into his cloaked shoulder.
