Thank you for the reviews on the last chapter , guys 3 you all :D
Chapter 3
Bella looked at the Volturi Leader, waryly " And what is this resolution?" she said , a little bit more confident. She was the only one of the Cullens and herself that could speak , so she did. And when she did , she put in more confidence than she usually would. Aro saw this , and admired it. Of course, Aro wasn't going to tell her everything.
"Well Miss Isabella " he said , pronouncing her name slowly , and for some reason Bella liked it when he said her full name. " You are given the honour of staying in Volterra for three days , just so we know that you are completely willing to keep our secret. If we believe we can trust you, then you may depart Volterra with your future family and become immortal "
He calls staying here a honour?! Bella mentally snorted, though showed no emotion on her face.
" And Edward and Alice ? " Bella asked , uncertain. This plan would be ok, if Alice and Edward were with her , Bella thought , to protect her from these ...vampires.
"They , unfortunately , do not get the same honour as you" Aro smiled at the girl slyly.
" And what if you do not deem me suitable to keep your secret ?" Bella may not have been centries old , but she had read enough books for her to know how to.
"Then you and your boyfriend , along with Alice here , die " the last word echoed in Bellas head menacingly. She could handle herself dying, it had almost happened many times , but she could even fathom the pain the Cullens would suffer if they lost Edward and Alice. Everything within the Cullen coven seemed to orbit around them.
Bella stared into Aros red eyes, never-ending pools of crimson, long and hard, before saying ( with a very hard and unhappy look on her face ) :
"Fine "
Aros face broke out into a wde smile as he turned to Felix and Demitri , motioning them to let Alice and Edward go. Alice hugged Bella once " See you , sister "
She nodded at Edward , as she wasn't sure he still loved her and said " See you "
Edward nodded back and the two left the castle , to a hotel nearby.
Bella was left to face the Volturi Leaders again , just this time alone , and more ... confident? Was that what she was feeling? Confidence? In what?!
Bella raised her eyebrow at the Volturi Leaders , the two that were staring ( Marucs , Aro ) and one who was sneering ( dh...Caius) . Aro motioned for Jane to come came to the steps of the dais were the masters sat , and bowed slightly.
" Yes , Master ?"
Aro smiled at his most favoured guard " Bring Isabella to a guestroom , dear Jane "
" Of course , Master " Jane turned to the human girl , Isabella " Follow me " Jane said to Isabella , as Aro had called her , and led her to a guestroom. Jane entered and closed the door
" Why did you do it ?" Jane asked the question that had been nagging her for a while
" Why did I do what ? " Bella asked. She was intimidated by Jane , any sane person would be , but there was something different about the Jane Bella had seen use her powers on Edward and this one. Jane didn't seem so ... unreal now. It looked like she was a real person , with interests and worries , and a personality.
The truth was , the Volturi Guard weren't always serious. It was always only to outsiders , and to their masters , though the Masters knew that the Guard had a better side.
" Why did you come to Volterra , knowing the danger , to save your ex – who is a vampire – from vampire royalty? "
Bella shrugged as if it was nothing "I didn't want him to die out of guilt "
Jane simply raised an eyebrow and inspected the girl " I do not understand you , Isabella , but I understand you need new clothes " Jane said scrunching up her nose at the stink of fountain water , sweat , Cullens , and ... wolf ?! Jane dismissed it , not bothering . Bella looked down at herself
" Yeah , about tha-"
Jane smiled at the girls discomfort " You are skinny , and small " she motioned to the girl. Jane felt she was going to be friends woth Isabella Swan , as they seemed to be able to get along , and Bella didn't appear to be scared of Jane , which Jane was happy about. Being feared isn't always good. " So you should fit into one of my dresses " she said smiling at the girl. Bella blushed and said
" Jane , you really don't need to-"
" I want to " she said , smiling " Though , I'll warn you , there is a lot of black "
Bella smiled at the vampire darkly " Excellent" black was a favourite colour of Bellas , it went with everything ,any colour.
Jane led Bella down the series of corridors leading to her suite. Bellas jaw hit the floor when she saw the room.
The room itself was painted a dark purple , with a wall sized wardrobe and a table. There was several couches in a few different areas of the room , and a nice bed . Bella didn't know why they needed a bed ... maybe it was just for appearences?
Jane walked over to the huge wardrobe and opened one of the doors. Inside were a selection of black , dark purple , dark blue , dark red and dark green dresses.
"Wow " Bella said in awe. She had never seen such pretty dresses in her whole life. They were simple and cute , but gorgeous.
Jane choose out a black dress for Bella , knee length and long sleeved with a black lace overlay at the sleeves that complemented Bellas curves.
Jane smiled at the girl , who looked and smelled a lot better than she did when she first arrived , but she felt no thrist for the girl , she had a lot of control after all. Jane already saw her as a friend and could only hope that Aro would spare her.
As for Bella , she felt that Jane was a friend to her too , and that that smile that then covered Bellas face , was real .
I couldn't think of a song for this one :L REVIEW :*
