A/N: Sorry people for another little break. My first year at high school started last week, and I am always only in the evening back home, so I haven't got much time to write. I try to write as soon as possible second chapter :)


Chapter 10

EDWARD POV

I haven't hunt, I haven't speak, I haven't done anything. All I can even think about is Bella. Where is she? I feel miserable and so alone without her, and I don't even know does she feel the same anymore. Yesterday a thought of her not loving me anymore came up to my mind. Maybe she stopped loving me when I left her or maybe she stopped loving me when she finally realized I'm dangerous to her. Well, it's good; actually, she is safe without me. But I can't deny it doesn't hurt like hell. My heart aches and I feel like choking everytime I hear someone speaking or thinking about her.

My family has gone feeding few hours ago, probably somewhere in Canada's border. They of course asked me to come with them, but I didn't answer. I looked at Jasper when he asked me, and he realized I'm not going to move. I'm not in the mood of moving.

I don't know when I'm going to move. I think I don't even remember how to move. Or how to breath.

Suddenly I started to hear voices in my head, thoughts.

Ah, my family is back. They all have lowed they needs for blood, but none of them are like they used to be. Emmett's mind is almost quiet, same with Rosalie. Esme thinks of cleaning. Carlisle tries to keep his mind calm and think about Esme and work. Jaspers mind is full of emotions of his family. Nervousness, unhappiness, longing, heart breaks…

But then Alice's mind became clearer to me. She thought of Bella, and Bella was clear in her mind. Like she was thinking of a visi-…

She has had a vision. Of Bella. Somewhere. Alive. Far away.

Volterra. What in the name of God is my precious Isabella Marie Swan doing in that place? Quickly Alice stopped somewhere near the house, still in the woods. There was running a vision in her head. Me going after my love. In the same split second, I started to move again, I started to speed towards to Italy. No more than two seconds and I were in the woods. I heard everybody starting to call me – out loud and in their minds.

Alice yelled at herself in the same time. I thanked her, I will owe her big time. But I am mad at her, nevertheless. She didn't tell me enough in time. I could've saved Bella already, I could have her in my arms right now.

My angel-Bella, I'm coming for you. Try to hold on for little more .

Bella POV

The middle day light was warm, even hot. I sat down on the grass, enjoying the warmness and the random gentle breezes of air on my skin.

"What will I do?" I asked myself quietly. It felt stupid to talk to myself, but I didn't care.

Tomorrow I will be turned into an immortal creature, vampire. Moreover, not an ordinary vampire, no. I will become a Volturi vampire. It lifted a tiny smile on the corner of my lip, but I put it down right away. I felt proud, but in the same time, I felt ashamed and terrible person. Cullens would – and probably will – hate me for this. Someday we all will meet again, like I promised to Edward in the letter. But I will be different then. I won't be vulnerable and plain human anymore. I will be strong, beautiful killer. They will be afraid of my bloody eyes and pale skin. They will think 'She is not Bella anymore' .

And then it's all over. Then it's all as if they didn't ever even meet me.

How will it influence me?

I buried my face in my hands.

"Are you alright?" I heard voice from the gate. I lifted my head and saw Felix. And over few feet far away, there were standing Jane and Alec. I frowned. Why are they here? In fact, why are Jane and Alec here?

"Umm… yeah, kind of", I answered blushing. Felix walked and sat beside me. Oh my, he reminded of Emmett so much!

"Well, could you tell, why you see it so bad to join us?" he asked me straightly. I looked at him not knowing what to say.

"I don't think it's a bad thing… It just, I think I will disappoint everyone in Forks"

"And by everyone you mean especially the Cullens, am I right?" he raised his dark eyebrows. I pressed my face down and blushed.

"Listen, newbie, we all get it, you miss them, you hate us for kidnapping you and now almost forcing you to be one of us. But it isn't that bad, you know? We aren't that bad. In addition, you heard what Marcus said: Edward isn't your soul mate. So if he is the one who keeps you feeling guilty, then you are feeling it for nothing. You are innocent. Let go of your past, and start living your future", Felix told me, patted me gently on my head and left with the Twins.

I was in bit of a shock. I have never expected something like that for guy like Felix.

And now I have nothing to say. Nothing to do. Suddenly I want to let go of everything. I stood up and determined walked back to the throne room.

Aro, Marcus and Caius sat in their thrones. Aro hold both of them hands. Demetri, Felix, Heidi and couple more vampires stood in the east side of the huge hall. Jane, Alec, Afton and Chelsea were in the west side. Renata stood behind Aro, her hand gently on his shoulder.

They seemed genuinely surprised of my coming back. I walked in front of the Kings, not looking at anyone else but them three, when I let the words fly of my lips:

"I want to be turned now"

Silent gasps ran through the hall, only Caius, Marcus and Aro looked straight to my eyes. I looked at Aros crimson eyes. He looked back, considering my will.

"Hmm, young Isabella… Surprising. Nevertheless, your wish has been fulfilled", he said, smiling at me. I sighed and the next thing I knew I had two terribly sharp teeth inside my neck.

The teeth pinched urgently, but the pain that came few seconds after them felt like burning. I felt flames racing through my veins all over my body. I felt myself screaming and crying, but I couldn't stop. I couldn't control myself. The burn and pain got harder every second.

Demetri POV

It was terrible to watch Bella hurt. She screamed, tears steamed on her pale cheeks.

In the other hand, everything was going just as things should be going. Burn, pain, transformation: there is nothing we can do to help this angel.

At the evening of the first transformation day, we got guests. Aro was with Caius and Marcus in the thrones room, and I of course was with Bella, holding her hand and not letting go even for a second.

But then I had to. Chelsea rushed little bit in shock close to me. Then she grabbed my arm and tried to pull me with her.

"Chelsea, what the hell are you doing?" I yelled at her. She shook her head.

"Demetri, we have a huge problem", she panicked. It was kind of humoring to see a vampire that shocked, but it can mean only a one thing: actually big problem.

I looked back at Bella. I don't want to leave her alone.

"We have to make sure she will be okay", her words got all of my attention.

"Excuse me?" I felt confused. Then I understood, in that split second. God how stupid I am!

"Edward Cullen", I said in the same time with Chelsea, in the same tone even. We left the room and rushed to the thrones room.

And I was right.
