Chapter 10

When I woke up I was still in the same room and Aro and Caius hadn't moved.

I could faintly see their mouths moving but they was obviously talking to fast, for my human ear to catch up.

After 5 minutes or so I heard chuckling and then a voice I could finally hear

"Isabella I know your awake and have been for a while I could hear your heart rate change"

With that I turned to look at him and he smiled (which had fast become my favourite sight in the world)

"what was you talking about with Aro and Marcus, I couldn't make it out"

He sighed "that my love is because you wasn't meant to hear it, don't worry it's not important now"

"you can't tell me that and expect me not to be curious, I promise I can handle whatever it is, I am not as fragile as you think"

"very well but I still don't think it is a good idea. Aro has just called the Cullen clan to tell them they are being requested here in Volterra however they do not know why, we are planning to keep that a secret until they arrive"

I only realised I wasn't breathing when Caius grabbed me and told me to take a breath all I could say was "what are you going to do to them"

He had a worried expression on his face and as much as I tried to calm down I just couldn't stop thinking about how the Cullens left and how that made me feel

"you don't need to hear anymore my love, the mere mention of the name has made you go into hysteria, I don't want to push you over the edge"

"I'm . . . fine" I breathed out barley at a whisper before going into deep breaths

"no, I'm sorry but that is all I am going to tell you tonight" and with that I was being cradled into his cool, stone hard chest which made me feel more and more relaxed until finally my breathing had slowed right down to normal speed.

"Please don't hurt the Cullens they didn't do anything wrong it was Edward who told me they warned him against it but he did it anyway"

"I know Isabella but they still allowed a human to have knowledge of our kind and we need to know whether they intended to change you and whether or not they knew Edwards plan to leave you. I know your my mate but we cannot bend the rules we will have to put them on trial and decide a reasonable punishment then however one thing I can promise you is that they will never be able to hurt you again"

I sighed, disappointed that the Cullens may be killed because of me but in the end there was nothing I could do, they had broken a law, but then I had an idea

"what if there was a way I could show that the Cullens are innocent apart from Edward then would you be able to let them off" I ask him desperate for any way to help them out of their fate

"I suppose yes if you was willing to stand infront of the trial and listen to their sides of the story but I have to let you know my dear that vampire trials are ruthless and sometimes do not end in the best ways"

I knew he didn't want me to do this but I had to help them after all it was my fault that they was in danger in the first place!

"I'll do it" was all I had to say

"as long as you believe yourself ready then I will not stop you but if you change your mind at any point just tell me and you will not do it, they will be here tomorrow so I must go and prepare will you be okay here alone"

I nodded thinking that would probably be best after all I needed to think about what I was going to say

"Jane and Alec will be outside if you need anything"

With that he was out the door and I was alone again!

Edward POV

They had taken my Bella – the Voltori had her. As soon as I stepped foot in the country I could smell her wonderful floral scent and traced it to the castle. I had to rescue her. How long had they had her ? Were they trying to torture infomation out of her about us? I had to rescue her so I got the weaponary needed incase of a fight and headed up there to take her back!
