Chapter 6: Accepted

"So what do you eat?" Cassandra asked me. They are so alike.

"What do you think these are for?" I pointed to my teeth.

"I don't see anything."

"Yet." I pushed out my fangs. Making them show their true length. Everyone jumped. I had to laugh at that. I retract my fangs.

"What kind of animals do you hunt?" Katie asked me. They were asking to exact same question Alexander and Allegra were.

"I mostly hunt carnivorous animals." She nodded.

"Well, I accept her as a witch. Don't anybody else?" Cassandra asked.

"I accept you as a Cromwell, Bella." Devin said. "Me too." Katie this time. "Also me." Eric said. "Bella, you know our answer." Allegra stated for her and Alexander. I smiled.

"Bella, you know that the last time we hunted was two weeks ago," Alexander stated. I nodded curiously. "So what I am saying that you should go hunting with us. Your blood does not call to us." He explained.

"So are you implying that I should go hunting with you?" I asked. He nodded proudly. "Sure, you know this would be a good science project." I chuckled. The rest of the family just sniggered.

Tonight was the night that I would go hunting with my new adoptive family in human terms but to me they were my family. I learned my things about them. They say that they are not a coven but a family. I don't know what is up with me but I love the term family.

My Royal relatives never called ourselves family but as The Conclave. To them we were made to council problems in our world and nothing else. We never were made to love. Our mates were chosen, just like my mother and father. They say that we learn to like each other.

"BELLA, ARE YOU READY TO GO YET!!!!!????" Devin yelled. "Why do girls always take the longest time?" He whispered. I rolled my eyes, and walked down the stairs in my hunting clothing.

Eric, Devin, Cass, Kate, Allegra, and Alexander eyes' popped open. Their mouths hang open. I could feel my face grow confuse.

"What?" I asked. They shook out of their shock.

"Bella, what are you wearing?" Cassandra asked me.

I looked down at my outfit. I thought there was nothing wrong with it. I was wearing a black tank top with a black belt and black pants. My running shoes were also black with red on the sides.

"Um what is wrong with it?"

"Bella, that outfit is way too nice to get ruin." Cassandra told me. I scoffed.

"Cass, I have a lot of nice clothing. This is the ugliest clothing I have." I chuckled. She glared at me, nut she couldn't hold for long.

"So are we going to hunt or what?" Devin asked impatiently.

"Yeah, yeah we are going to hunt you big baby." I said laughing.

We now were in the North of Minnesota.

"Okay, Bella, I'm kind of curious of how you hunt. So what I am asking if I can watch you?" Alexander asked me.

"Sure, I just love audience when I hunt." I laughed. He chuckled along with me. "I smell a herd of deer about 6 miles away." I told them. They nodded. We all ran faster.

I spotted a mountain lion. My senses took over me. I automatic launched myself at the mountain lion. My fangs came out. It had been a while since I had hunted so I was thirsty. My fangs immediately sunk into its warm flesh. I could my strength coming back. I didn't like the feeling of feeling weak. I savored the taste. I continued to drain the mountain lion my hands keeping the deer from moving. Once I finished, I heard the applause. Slowly did I turn around to find the whole family standing there.

"Now that is what I call hunting!" Devin yelled which ended with Cassandra slapping him behind the head. I chuckled.

"Okay, so are we done hunting?" Alexandra asked all of us. We all nodded. "Okay lets go back home."

"Bella, when we get home we are getting ready to go shopping." Cassandra winked at me.

"Shopping?" I whispered frighten. Kate and Cassandra nodded grimly. "RUN!!!" I dashed forward with Kate and Cass on my tail.

I got bored after a while and stopped running and let them catch me. They both cheered of victory. They ended up dragging me up the stairs.

"Katie get me the curling iron, nail polish, brush, lipstick, blush, Eyelash curler," Cassandra ordered.

They ended up with Cassandra doing my hair while Katie doing my makeup. Katie painted my lip and nails blood red. Cassandra curled my hair with my bangs pulled back. My outfit was a ruffled white blouse that shown my cleavage with a black skirt and black pumps.

As soon as they were done they took a step back and examined me. Their eyes popped opened.

"I have to say, Bella. YOU LOOK HOTTTT!!!" She screamed with Katie nodding in agreement.

I rolled my eyes at them. I walked over to the mirror. My eyes popped open also. I no longer recognized the reflection. She had long brunette hair that was curled that went to her waist. Her lips and nails were blood red that contrasts with the black and white. The black pumps made my legs look long and slender even more. The white blouse was tight showing my curves. The miniskirt helped me get a better look at the legs.

I looked back to Cass and Kate to find them giving themselves a pat on the back. I couldn't stop my eyes form automatically rolling.

"Cassandra, Katie you guys done a great job at making me a Barbie doll that will blind anyone if I bend over meaning the front and back." I laugh when they glared at me. "Thank you." I put my arms to pull them into a bear hug.

"Can't breathe." Cassandra struggled to get out. I pulled tighter.

"Cassandra, we don't need to breathe," I laughed then let them go. They just stood there."Are you guys going to take me shopping or what?"
