OK, this chapter will be a year later because the stuff between that is pretty boring. Plus, I want the Cullens to come in XD.
One Year Later
Bella POV
Things were great. Alec and I have been together since the kiss in the gardens. Everyone was happy for us, even Jane. Well, Jane was more ecstatic than happy. Things have been pretty much the same, but now I'm with Alec, and we're engaged! The wedding will be next month! I'm so excited, but nervous too. Especially since Aro decided to invite every single vampire clan there is. Even the Cullens.
Edward POV
I decided I couldn't live without my Bella any more, so we have moved back to Forks. Esme called Charlie and invited him and my angel over for dinner, they should be here any minute.
Charlie parked his cruiser in the drive way then came into the house, alone. I tried to find Bella's scent, but I couldn't. Where is she?
"Hello, Charlie. Where is Bella?" Carlisle asked when we were all seated in the living room.
"She moved to Italy months ago, she's gone to college there." He said gruffly. Italy? I saw my whole family tense. After dinner, which we pretended to eat, we said goodbye to Charlie and had a family meeting. We were going to Italy to get my beloved Bella back, if she's still alive.
Bella POV
Jane was my made of honour, and Heidi my bridesmaid. I'd tried to ask Desire, because she was the first person who was kind to me, but I couldn't find her. Jane said that Desire doesn't like weddings, so I guess it's good I couldn't find her. The days were passing quickly, and the more anxious I got, the more controlling Jane got with all the wedding plans.
I was dressed in a short black, strapless dress and pumps. My hair was down and I had a Volturi crest around my neck. I was running with Alec, Heidi and Jane down to the throne room, where Aro requested everyone must go at once. It must be urgent. When I entered the room, hand in hand with Alec, I was surprised at what I saw. It was the Cullens, Felix and Demetri holding back Edward, who was screaming at Aro for killing me. "You told her you didn't love her." Aro said simply.
"I lied." Edward calmed down now, becoming slightly limp in Felix and Demetri's grasp. I walked to the thrones and turned to face the Cullens, still holding Alec's hand, and being flanked by Jane and Heidi. "I'm not dead. The guard came to my house and asked me to join the Volturi. I came here voluntarily." They looked shocked. Edward had managed to get out of the guards grasp. He rushed up to me and kissed me. I through him on the floor, I still had some of that newborn strength. He looked shocked and hurt. "Bella, I love you."
"I know, and I love you, always will. But you are not my mate. I found my true mate. I'm engaged Edward." I said, holding up my left hand with the Gothic diamond ring on it.
"To who?" He asked. I lifted my right hand, with Alec's still grasped tightly in it, and showed it to him. The Cullens all looked shocked.
"When is the wedding?" Alice asked, breaking the silence. She had a look of hope in her eyes.
"Next month. Jane is my made of honour and Heidi is a bridesmaid. Sorry Alice." As I explained this, she got more and more heartbroken. I knew she always wanted to plan Edward and I's wedding. Liam, one of the guards, brought in a bunch of people.
"Everybody, the Cullens will be staying for a while, I hope." Aro looked at Carlisle for confirmation, he nodded. "Someone will show you to your rooms."
"Bella, would you like to show us where you hunt?" Carlisle asked. He thought I hunted animals? I tried once, but they were horrible. All the Volturi laughed, including me.
"Sorry, I drink humans. Animals are vile." I scrunched my nose and everyone laughed again. The Cullens once again looked shocked, but left so we could enjoy our meal. All of this was said in vampire speed, so none of the humans heard any of it.
"Hey there are the Cullens, and there's Bella!" I recognised that voice. I turned around, and sure enough, standing there was Mike, Jessica, Lauren and all the rest excluding Angela and Ben. "Let me have these ones. They were mean to me back in Forks." I said, loud enough for everyone to hear. I walked up to them, and glared. I quickly bit Lauren and drained her. The humans screamed as I did so. Mike and Jessica looked terrified as their friends' body dropped to the floor. "Welcome to the Volturi. Home to vampire royalty." I lunged at Jessica and Mike, then the rest of the Volturi started drinking the rest of the group.
