Summary: Bella has a few secret. She is the daughter of Vladimir, half-sister of Jane and Alec, and a hybrid. Set in NM when they are going to be in front of the three Volturi Brothers.
AN: WARNING there is cursing in the chapter. And Laurent never went to see Bella. So he never died.
Previously:
"I appreciate you willing for me to be here on the decision. I will try and help make suggestions." Bella said.
"Before we can go any farther I would like a few question answered first that those two can only answer, and Bella since you are here I know we will at least get to the bottom of this without the lies." I said. Bella nodded as I got worry from Edward and Alice...
JPOV
"Why so worried Edward and Alice. Are you worried that the truth is finally going to come out? No matter. Now let's get on with the questions. How long was this affair going on?" I asked.
Alice bowed her head then answered quietly, "About a month after you had proposed to me."
My eyes widen, "That was 45 years ago. Why didn't you end things with me? Why did you tell me we were mated if Edward was your actual mate?" I yelled.
Edward growled at me, "Don't talk to her like that. And as Aro said we wanted power over you. Better question is to Bella why were you with me?" I had to agree that was a better question.
Bella squared her shoulders and narrowed her eyes to Edward, "You want to know why I was with you. Well since you are actually being truthful and the rest of the family needs to know why also. I was with you because Jasper was with Alice, and I don't go around messing up other peoples relationships. Yes I felt the mates pull, but Jasper was happy and that is all I wanted, and I was happy just being near him. If the only way into your family was through you then so be it. I grew to love you Edward during the time I spent with you, but I was in love with Jasper. I was willing to stay beside you to be near him and watch him be happy with Alice. I didn't know anything of what you two were planning because I never used my gift except for my shield and occasionally seeing the future. Yes I would have told everyone who I was eventually, but you left me." she said. "How were you two eluding Jasper's gift making him not notice that you weren't mates, Alice?" That was another valid point. I also noticed the other Cullens were quite in shock on how things were coming out.
Alice sighed then said, "Jasper and I have been together for 50 years. For the first 5 years I was trying to get him to see that we were meant to be together. Yes I felt the mating pull to Edward but I was focused on getting Jasper to love me. I knew who he was before I met him at the diner. I also knew about Edward being my mate. I saw a vision of Edward and me ruling over the vampire race. Jasper was to help with that. I lusted for that power. At first I didn't know I would have to get together with him to have that vision happen, but right before he walk into the diner I had another vision where it didn't happen. That is why when I met him at the diner I told him we were meant to be together the vision went back to us ruling. So I used his loneliness against him. I didn't know anything about you two being mates until the day you showed up at school. Why did you stay in Fork after we left?" I was pissed to say the least. I was having a hard time controlling my beast again. Just then Bella touched my arm and all was calm. I sent my gratitude to her. She smile and nodded.
"Well I stayed in Fork to learn what I could about the shape shifters down in La Push. They start to phase again a little before you all left Forks. When I left there was 5 wolves so far, but I could tell there was going to be at least 3 more that shifted after I left. I learned quite a bit during my time with them. Aro already has the information that I collected." Bella said then turned to me and asked, "Jasper why didn't you notice the mates pull?"
"I did notice it. I was ignoring it because I thought Alice was my mate. I kept pushing my feeling for you aside because I felt I owed Alice for saving me from myself. I was in denial on my feeling for you." I said. I felt ashamed on not seeing any of this soon.
"You have no reason to be ashamed Jasper they fooled everyone, and used your loneliness against you." Bella comforted me. "Does anyone have any more questions?" she waited a minute to see if anyone wanted to ask anything. "No, ok let's start on the discussion on their punishment."

As soon as I finished talking I cut off all senses and turn off Edward's and Alice's gifts. "Ok as of right now Edward and Alice have no clue what is being said. They should not have a say in their punishment."
"I would have to agree with you there Bella and Thank you." said Carlisle. Carlisle hesitated for a moment then said, "I have no clue how to go about punishing them. I am always a peaceful person would like to resolve this without violence. Does anyone have any suggestion?"
"Sorry everything I can think of involves violence. Like tearing them apart and scatter their body part around the globe so it takes time for them to reassemble themselves." suggested Rosalie.
"I like that idea" exclaimed Emmett excitedly. I shook my head at him trying not to laugh, but couldn't remove the smirk on my face.
"Only you Emmett." muttered Jasper. I turned and notice he was predicament as me…trying not to laugh with a smirk. He is actually quite handsome. I am glad I have my emotional shield up because he would be feeling my emotions and I don't want to influence his decision because of my emotions. Just then Jasper pulled me from my thoughts. "I don't think that is the best option. It would feel like they are getting off to easily. Would you agree Bella?"
"Yes I would. Hmm, since they are under the impression that the Volturi are evil. I would suggest they serve the as guard for…um…a century? There's not any violence involved except on certain missions and we can't guarantee that all mission are easy or safe, but they may learn that the Volturi is all bad and we have a job to do here. Yes outside of these walls we have be bad ass, but in here we are not that bad. We are people like everyone else. I am sure you remember that during your time here Carlisle. Shoot if I wanted I could rule right alongside the brothers but I don't want that power. I prefer to stay low and not known by many. I have seen what power does to people and don't want to be driven crazy by that kind of power. I know I am the most powerful because of my gifts. I honestly would give it all up to live a normal life like you the Cullens. Dammit I am babbling why didn't anyone stop me?" I said.
It was silent for a moment then Carlisle cleared his throat and said, "Um, because some of us are in shock and awe. I can't speak for everyone because I don't have Jasper's gift, but I know feel that after everything you just said. I do remember that it wasn't all bad in here, and that was a great suggestion Bella. Do you think the brothers would go for it though?"
"I can go and talk to them to see what they think and if they are willing to go with it, and if they do or don't I will come back and inform you of their decision, but if do I will release them two and we can inform them of their punishment." I told Carlisle.
"Sounds like a plan. We will be here when you get back." said Carlisle.
I bowed my head then turned to head to talk to the brothers. When I was outside the throne room I could tell something was amiss. I walked into the throne room I noticed the Denali Coven in there. I saw Laurent in front of Aro just letting go of his hand, I nodded towards Eleazar and he nodded back.
"Bella it's good to see you. I take it that the talk with the Cullen was good, yes?" said Aro.
"It was master. I came here to discuss that with you, but what is the matter I sense something isn't right." I asked. I noticed Laurent was in shock that I was having a casual conversation with the brothers. As far as he knew I was a human calling Aro master.
"Nothing you need to worry about at this time my dear. It's just news that we were just inform about. We will discuss it later with you. What did you want to discuss with us?" said Aro.
I sighed, "Okay we will discuss the news that you got later. I came to discuss the punishment for Edward and Alice. The Cullens don't want to go a violent route on their punishment so I suggest that Edward and Alice work for the guard for at least a century. I told them that some of the mission that they will be on won't always be easy or safe, but during their time with us maybe they will learn we are not as bad as we seem to the outside world. Edward and Alice has no clue what was discussed because I blocked all their senses and turn off their gifts as well. So what do you think of this punishment for them?" I informed the brothers.
Aro touched Marcus' and Caius' hand. The Denali's stand quiet the whole time. I waited for brothers to discuss the punishment over…
JPOV (After Bella left the room)
We watched as Bella left all was quiet for a few minutes then Rosalie said, "So what are you going to do about you and Bella?"
"I honestly have no clue on what to do. I have feeling for her. I always have, but I denied my feeling because of Alice, and now finding out that I was allowed to have feelings for her because she is my mate it's almost too much to take in. Now I am also worried that since I was used not by one but two people who I thought loved me, and I am empathy and they fooled me, to be rulers over the vampire race. I don't know if Bella won't use me also because she lied to us about who she was. In a way I am glad that she never told us who she was because I can only imagine what they would have done to her. She is the kindest person I have ever met but I can't help but wonder if it is all an act." I growled in frustration.
"I highly doubt she like Alice or Maria, son. As she said if wanted to she could rule with the brothers. Well honest I think she could take over without anyone help. She is the most powerful vampire in existence, but as she said she doesn't want that kind of power. When she told us that she would give up her gift just to be normal, I notice there was a genuine longing for that. I honestly believe her, and you weren't the only one who was used not once but twice by people who she thought loved her, her father and then Edward. Just give things a chance. You'll regret it later if you just let her go." Carlisle said.
I hung my head and mutter, "Your right. I will try and see how things go."

After about 15 minutes Aro let go of their hands then said, "That is fine with us, but are you sure you want this because they will be working under you for a century." This shocked Laurent even more. He was also confused how I could hold that much power as a human to be above Edward and Alice in the guard.
"Yes master I know this and I am positive. Laurent to make you less confused I am the Leader of the Guard and I am not Human I am a hybrid. Eleazar can tell you more." I told them.
Aro smiled, "Very well dear one. Go and inform the Cullens on our decision, and once you are done bring the Cullens and yourself back here. And we will discuss the news we got. It involves everyone."
I bowed my head, "Very well master. I will bring them here once we are done with informing Edward and Alice of their punishment." And with that I turned and headed to Cullen rooms. I noticed Jasper was deep in thought when I walked in. "They agreed to the punishment. I am going to release them now so we can inform them and get back to the throne room. Aro has something he needs to discuss with all of us." I told the Cullens. I then released Edward and Alice. "A decision been made on your punishment."
I looked to Carlisle for him to pick up where I left off since this is his coven, "Your punishment is that you will serve for the Volturi as guard for a century. Maybe when you are here you will learn that they are more than just the leaders of our kind. Now let's go to the throne room to see what Aro needs to discuss with us. Bella go ahead and lead the way." I nodded and lead the way back to the throne room…
