Just some back round stuff you may want to know before you read anything else, coz nothing will be explained unless a character has no clue what's going on and is being told. I recommend you read.
Set in olden days, before electricity. Girls are expected to wear long dresses with corsets and bodices. Above the knee is considered sluttish. And their hair is always supposed to be up. Marriage at 18 is expected. And the guys think the girls a weaker and useless gender for anything other than housework, which is mostly true in my story. Girls are pretty much treated as trash that's good to look at, and most of them are stupid enough to enjoy it. Vampires rule the world from the Citadel, where Bella lives.
Bella is the adopted and abused daughter of Victoria and James Tracer. Her actual parents are Charlie and Renee Swan. She is gutsy and almost completely different from most any other female, and quite a few males as well.
Charlie and Renee are to hunters what the Volturi are to vampires, royalty. They would claim Bella as their own, but that would mean coming out of hiding.
Hunters hunt the evil things in short. They have already invented electricity and the modern day things we have today and more. But they have not shared this with an one other than hunters, it gives them the advantage. Vampires are oblivious to the existence of hunters, yet vampires are always dieing at the hands of hunters. Hunters are humans with extensive training that can make them as strong as the Quileute Wolves, but very rarely they can become stronger. Bella is the only hunter at this time stronger than the Wolves. There have been only 3 in existence before her, 2 were women. Hunters do not underestimate women, for the women that have decided to be hunters are hunters because they have rebelled against the vampire rule and stayed undetected, proving them just as good as the men if not more so. Hunters are also immortal once their initial training is over.
The Cullen's have just moved to the Citadel as Aro wishes to see his old friend Carlisle, this is were our story begins.
