Jacob's P.O.V
The room I woke up in was very colorful to my surprise. Evening light peeled into the slender windows and onto the floors. As I tried to sit up my muscles protested and my breathing stops to short jerky ones. Once I slowly sit up on the plush, Italian sheets I take stock of the room fully. Art work on the dark walls, a couch/ day bed at the foot of the massive bed. A mere desk littered with papers and things. In the corner held a grand piano and Cello ready to be played at any moment.
Where the hell was I? I remembered being in La Push and getting kidnapped, but nothing else. The door opens and I snap my head to the breech. "Ah, you're awake." The man said stepping into the room. He wore a sleek, three piece black suite and was a pale a snow. Pale pink lips with dark red eyes and long, straight black hair flowing behind his back. He was beautiful.
It was then something clicked and I'm pissed beyond repair. Goddamn it. Not only is my imprint a man, he's a fucking blood sucker! The internal insult caused me to grab my chest and cough in pain. I couldn't even talk badly about my Imprint.
"I'm afraid that I don't know much about your kind. Are you hungry?" The last part was spoken softly as he inched closer from his place by the door. I stare at him in question and awe and he took another step towards me.
"I'm afraid I can't get you what you require if you don't tell me, young one." His teasing smile made me want to blush and I instantly hated myself for the thought. The thought of food made my stomach roar with mistreatment and I did blush as the beautiful bloodsucker before me gave a knowing smirk.
"It seems your organs are revolting. Might I know what you like to eat now?" I take a moment eyeing him carefully before speaking.
"My kind require a lot of food. The normal human size times five really. As a wolf, I like meat, anything really, but meat is best for us." The man nods and quickly claps his hands twice before another vamp shows up. The girl is short in height but the air around her made my wolf bristle with warning. This girl was dangerous and looks were deceiving.
"Jane, I require ten rare steaks delivered here."
"And the drink master?" Both pause and look to me.
"Uh- a large coke?" The girl, Jane, nods before blurring away from the room once more. The cold man gathers a sense of courage before heading over to me and sitting at the foot of the bed. His gaze pierces into my very soul and I'm looking away from such a strong look. The room suddenly becomes very interesting.
"I hope you like this room."
"It's very…interesting." I say in hopes he wouldn't take it as an insult. At this moment I hate being a wolf. With these traitorous thoughts I wouldn't be any good to my cause. "Thank you. It's my personal room. And now it's yours." The last was spoken in a very quiet whisper and the hard gaze was once again on me, waiting for my reaction. "uh- Thank you?" He smiles kindly and I find my body reacting in a funny way.
"Of course." A long pause comes between us before he speaks again. "Might I know your name?" I do my hardest to try and ignore him but the wolf in me won't allow it. The traitorous bastard all but whimpered from the loss of eye contact. Damn the fates that paired me with my enemy. "Jacob Black, but I think you already knew that." It came out a lot softer than I intended.
"Ah, that I did. I was just merely making conversation with my mate." My head snaps over to him once more. So he did know. "Yes young one, I know that we are bound by fate. Do you feel anything?" I take a moment to think on how to answer this. After a few, I decided that it would all come out in the open anyways.
"My kind imprint. Whenever we look into our imprint's eyes for the first time we instantly know that they are our mate. That they are our other half." The man beams at me and I swooned a little from the intensity of his smile.
"That's fantastic to hear." I smiled at his enthusiasm. He took the smile as an invitation to scoot closer to me and I couldn't find it with in me to move away. His presence was like a drug to me. Every fiber of my soul called for him…and I hated it.
"Jacob, my gift allows me to read a person's thoughts. Might I try and read yours to better access what your core needs are. As my mate I need to know how to take care of you." His logic was there but I really didn't want anyone trying to pick apart my brain.
"How does it work?"
"Just a simple touch would do it. You would feel nothing at all." Another inch was closed by him and now I can feel the cold coming off of him. It was comfort to my ever hot skin. "I don't think I would like that." His face fell and I could tell he wasn't use to being rejected. The expression he now wore made my heart ach and my wolf chastise me for putting it there.
"Well, if it doesn't hurt." I say soon after and hold out my hand. He stills when he takes my hand and I take the time to just feel. He's cold, like all bloodsuckers are, but in a way he's warm. His marble skin, smooth and so inviting. I would drown in his touch for all eternity if I could. His eyes retake focus again and he looks surprised by what I'm sure he saw in my life.
"You certainly have lived a very eventful life, young Jacob." I nod not sure of what to say. Luckily, the little blonde vamp came back with my order. Her nose wrinkled with disgust at my food like it insulted her entire family. I chuckled at her and it only seemed to deepen her scowl.
"Ah! Thank you Jane." The girl nods and takes her leave without another word. I wasted no time in digging in, moaning at the taste of the next to rare meat. "Good?"
"God yes, thank you?"
" Aro." I shivered at his name. Fitting for such a god. Fucking imprint mind.
Aro's P.O.V
As I watched my mate inhale his food I briefly wonder if I ordered enough for the boy. He was rounding his 6th steak when I spoke again. "You know the Cullens?" That caused pause with the young man. "Yeah, I do. More than I would like to say."
"I'm sorry if this seems a bit intrusive but I saw the war, Jacob. I'm so sorry for your lose." He stiffens but doesn't stop eating. His eyes gloss over while peering into his food even more. "It was rough but I will have my revenge on them."
"We Jacob, we. Your problems are my problems now. I've seen the devastation that was done to your home. I felt your pain and it will not go without justice." His eyes finally meet mine again and with a generous amount of gratitude. "Thank you." Came his weak reply. I decided to settle for quiet so he could finish eating in peace.
Though he was my mate, he unknowingly gave me information that sealed the fate of the Cullens. The war of the shifters with Carlisle and his family. His meeting with Edward and the South American tribe. His love for the intriguing Isabella Swan. A Kotodama and shield, what a prize. As a human she has retained her powers, I could only imagine what she could do as an immortal. It was good that he held the same general position as I do about taking down the Cullens and Denalis.
"Excuse me young one, I must go tend to some things but I shall return shortly. If you need anything, Sulpicia will see to it that it's yours. I must ask you to not wonder the castle alone." I stand with a great amount of effort and call my former companion to us. In a instant she is before me with dead eyes as always. "Anything he wishes, you will give. Understood?" She nods respectively and I take my leave to find my brothers.
Marcus's P.O.V
Caius and myself were in our personal study brushing up on past offenses and history. It wasn't often that just he and I were together for company. Although he is my youngest sibling, I find his ever growing hatred for the world a bit taxing on the nerves. The man was always angry about something and it bled through on other's emotions. I studied him as he was neck deep in papers. He wasn't always this way and it made me wonder what changed. Deep down I knew what had transpired to turn such a noble boy into a spiteful man.
Aro.
From such a young age Aro has always had a fascination with power and control. The man loved to be adored and hated to be underestimated. He felt the world owed him something from even a young age. When we were human, back before parchment was invented, he sought followers and those of like mind for his quest.
When Caius showed great skill in the fighting arts and strategy, Aro latched on to him like a tick. It was nothing to plant seeds of misguidance into his young mind. Our middle brother knew that Caius sought his affects as a brother and used that to his advantage. Aro is a poison to our family and our bond grows weaker by the day. Speaking of the devil, he blurred it with a elated grin on his face.
" Finish laying with your dog?" Caius asks not taking his eyes from his current business. Aro bites back a low growl much to my amusement. I know the mate bond has taken affect to him. In what I call my 'Bond Vision' I see it glowing a bright blue.
"Young Jacob is taking rest and I have given him Sulpicia to aid him." Caius offers a look of disbelief and I morn for my friend. "Giving up your wife to the will of the dog, you've come a long way Aro."
"He is not a dog and I'll appreciate it if you called him by his name, brother." Caius smirks but doesn't say anything more for the time being. "In other news, I have discovered what has happed with our Olympic Coven."
"Oh?" I ask generally curious. Aro walks more into the room and makes sure to close the door behind him.
"Yes, it seems that young Carlisle has had a war with Jacob's people defeating them and his youngest holds two gifts with her."
"Shifter war?" Caius closes his book now waiting for Aro to continue. "Jacob's people were from a long line of shape shifters that happened to take form of a wolf. Their species is triggered by vampires and can kill us. Luckily, the Cullens took them out before it became a problem. But Carlisle youngest is in possession of rare gifts." He pauses drifting off into space. No doubt planning his next move on our vegetarian friends.
"What is it? Spit it out, Aro." Caius was never know for his patience. "A Kotodama and mental Shield!" Even my eyes pop at the news. There hasn't been known knowledge of a Kotodama for over a millennium. Their kind were very rare and often sought after. Sadly, the demand for their life became so great the most were doomed to live the life of a servant, nomad, or in more cases…took their life.
"Are you sure?" Caius inquired with an almost awed expression. "Positive. I've seen her beginning works in his mind." The poor girl, she has been subjected to the same fate as her fore founders and doesn't even know it. The evil glint in Aro's eye tells me that if he wasn't before, he will now stop at nothing to acquire the young woman.
"She would be a great asset to our coven brothers. But I also have noticed that the Cullens have somewhat joined with the Denali Coven. Whether it was by choice or because of the events of La Push we do not know and nor do I care. Their have become a threat with crimes of making a Coven larger than our own by terms. We must act now." Caius smiles and I'm sick with grief thinking about the young ones. All Carlisle and Eleazar has ever wanted for their coven is to live in peace.
To know that they have been targeted makes me want to weep at the troubles coming their way. "How do we go about this Aro?" Caius is now standing beside the man with an excited look. Aro smirks as he pats his shoulder.
"We make them revolt against us in a way then we claim justice when we slaughter the lot of them. from the looks of it Edward is no long welcome in either coven so we use that knowledge to bring me my mind reader. Perhaps we should…persuade one of their weaker members into our custody to help start things along." I took the time to lay back and wait for their plotting to come to an end for the moment. Aro was a brilliant man and with Caius on his side, any strategy made him a danger in which this world has yet to know.
"Aro if I may. It may seem prudent to take in some of the Denali Coven as security as well as your Cullen gifts. I know that one of the ancients posses a power and their bond prevents them from separating. Take one sister and you have the rest." Our younger brother adds in.
"True words, Caius. Elder Kate has the gift of electrocution along with being over a thousand years old. Tanya would not take the absence lightly but there is nothing they can do if their coven is broken." he takes a moment to mull things over in his mind before addressing Caius once more.
"We take one of the Cullen's first, then we obtain a Denali. Then, the loss will be too great for them to ignore." Caius nods in agreement and it seems as though we are coming to a stop for the time being. "I shall call the guard for a meeting. I'll see you both there in one hour's time." With that, he blurs away in preparation.
True to his word, an hour later Aro held a meeting with Caius, myself and the elite guard. " My dear loved ones. We have come with a plan to draw out our law offenders. Since the Cullens and Denali have banded together as one coven they have grown to great lengths." He pauses to may sure all eyes are one him.
" Felix, Jane, Demetri. You three will be going out on a special mission. Alec, once you've got conformation that they are successful in their mission, you will and another will bring back Kate Denali." The boy nods with little emotion. True robots him and his twin. It broke my heart to see such life wasted for the bidding of a mad man. Both him and Jane were children of color when we first took stock of them.
"Quick note. There is a guest in our mist. His name is Jacob Black. He is under our care and shall not be harmed or harassed an any way, shape, or form. If he is under distress you will help him. If I find out that it is our own that has distressed him, you shall deal with me. Am I understood?" All nod in acceptance.
"Good. You have your orders, go." Aro's voice made all jump to their instructions. I leave with a dull feeling in my stomach at what is to come. No one has given us cause to worry but I can't help but feel as though Aro has bitten off more than he has come to know or chew.
I'm good with that. Thank you all. Rage on.
Alex
