*Hello people... This is my new story. I am planning to update this fic weekly just like my other story. I haven't decided on a day but I promise that one chapter will come up every week for both the fics.

"Excuse me, My name is Isabella Swan. I am here to see Mr Volturi".
"Ms. Swan, Mr Volturi is expecting you, let me show you in" the blonde at the desk moved to open the door for me.
Aro Volturi. The name was synonymous to success. At the age of 50, he was one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. He had built the Eclipse empire from scratch. Eclipse had hands in every single field in the industry. Eclipse Productions, Eclipse management. A job at Eclipse was literally a dream come true. And now I have been offered one.
I was equal parts surprised and thrilled when I received the call. Aro Volturi only chose the best. He was a collector of sorts. He ensured his team was the best at what they did. His team was his army. And I had been called directly by the man himself. I was the best at what I did, but still a call from someone like Volturi was unexpected to say the least.
I knocked on the door which the secretary pointed me to and promptly received permission to enter.
I could feel the adrenaline pumping through my veins. Aro was the uncrowned king of the entertainment world, and now I was stepping into his empire. I could feel goosebumps on my skin.
"Isabella Swan, thank you for agreeing to meet us at such a short notice," said Aro as he got up from his chair to welcome me. The man looked young for his age, though he was a bit too pale and had a voice so smooth that it was almost scary. I took me a few seconds to notice the other two occupants of the room.
"Let me introduce you to my friends, Caius Travista and Marcus Polini", I shook hands with both the men and took the vacant seat which Aro guided me to.
"So, Isabella. I am sure you must be wondering why I asked to meet you like this. My secretary must have informed you that the meeting is about a job opportunity but I had asked her not to divulge any details for security reasons" said Aro.
"Eclipse has always made it a point to ensure that their employees were always the best. Be it any field, I will only have the best. And you Isabella have the potential to be the best. But at present that potential is being wasted. I have seen your interviews, you are a good host. But with Eclipse you would become the best in business. So Isabella, now the question is, are you interested in being the best?" Aro looked at my face inquisitively.
"I do believe that I am good at what I do and I am honored that you think I have potential, but I can't ditch my old job just because I heard the name Eclipse. I have a commitment to them and I can't break their trust." I replied. I had done my research on Aro. The question had been a test, to check my loyalty.
"True, true. We can't ask you to ditch your first producers just like that. But last I heard, your contract with them was coming to an end. You could always back out of renewing it. I believe that won't be a break of trust. And from what I have heard of you Isabella, I think you are meant to do more than just sit on a sofa and interview celebrities. You have the unique combination of beauty, brilliance and charm, which is why you will be perfect for our new show." said Aro.
"It is better than anything that the bunch of idiots in the creative department of your company can come up with", added Marcus.
"I guess you will have to convince me about that. If only you would provide more information so that I could make an informed choice."
"Well, I would be more than happy to divulge information about the show, if you are willing to sign the NDA which Mr Travista here has put together. No offense, but you are still a member of the rival team and we don't want our concept reaching their hands now, do we." Aro smiled. Instead of making his face friendlier it only made him look more sinister. No wonder people called him a vampire.
I took my time reading through the set of papers Mr Travista put in front of me, before signing them.
"OK, so since that is out of the way, why don't someone explain to me what exactly is this show and why is it so special?" I asked.
"Patience, Isabella. But let me first introduce you to Marcus properly. He is the brain behind the whole show. Marcus, why don't you take Ms Swan to your office and explain the concept to her. I have another interview scheduled in 5 minutes for a potential co-host for her" said Aro.
"Wait, I have a co-host? I didn't say I am signing with you. How can you just assume ?" I asked.
"Isabella, Isabella. I am not assuming. I just know that you will take up this show. You know why? Because you are an ambitious girl. And believe me, you won't pass on this chance." said Aro.
I sighed. The man was so arrogant. I almost wanted to decline the offer just to bring him down a notch. Almost. But I was too curious. I needed to know what the big fuss was about. And yes, he was right I was ambitious, so what, sue me.
I started to follow behind Marcus to his office. But then I remembered he hadn't answered my first question.
"You never answered. I have a co-host?" I asked again.
Aro laughed. "You will have more than just one co-host Isabella. Give Marcus a chance to explain everything". I sighed. What exactly was this show and why was there such a huge hype?
Would this be the beginning of a new adventure? I was intrigued to say the least.
*This is a completely new story and is quite different from Bottled Love. I do hope this fic would receive the same love and support as my first one did.
* So here is the first chapter, tell me what you think. Do review. I really need the boost of confidence.
