Okay, thanks for the reviews I got last chapter! I think I got around . . . 5? Idk, anyway here's Chapter 11!
I walked around the back Alleys. I just finished feeding. Normally after 'dinner' Demetri and I would go back to either of our rooms and just . . . well, hang out. But I figured he might need some space, alone time if you will, before the wedding. So I was prowling the streets of Volterra. God I sound like a villain in a bad comic book. I sighed as I walked, everything was so boring without Demetri, talk about co-dependent much? I sighed as I ran my hand across the cold stone of the Alley. I loved this village. It was small but the architecture was amazing. That's we get so many tourist. Italy is known for its gothic buildings. Churches and castles, humans love that kind of stuff. I noted that the alley wall cracked as my head was smashed against it. I looked at my assailant. Victoria. Sighing I looked at her expectantly.
"Bella, I see you're a vampire now" her voice was nothing like I had expected. Instead of the cat like snarl I thought she would have, her voice was light like wind chimes, child like.
"Yes," I said, I didn't know what else to say,
"And part of the Volturi, no less. I guess they won't like my killing you" They'll kill me, ah finally an end to my suffering she thought and I looked at Victoria with a new light. She wasn't a ruthless killer, she was sad and lonely. Edward killed her mate, and now she didn't care what happened to her.
"I'm sorry" I said,
"What!" she snarled,
"I'm sorry for what happened to your Mate," I continued and she stared at me, "But it's not my fault"
"Your precious little Edward killed my James. So it's only fair I kill you, Mate for Mate" she snarled, I could see her logic, but it had but one flaw.
"I'm not Edwards mate" Her eyes weren't trusting "Some blonde bimbo is. Back in America" I said,
"He left you?" She spoke slowly, she let go of me,
"Yes, Victoria, I know how you feel. That burning hole in your chest." Her eyes snapped to mine, the red orbs filled with hurt and sadness, "But" I sighed "It gets better," She continued to look at me, as if I just said something entirely impossible, like slamming a revolving door.
"How?" she asked,
"With support" I answered,
"But I have no one! Those mangy mutts killed Laurent!" I pulled at the fuzzy memories of Laurent, I remembered that those 'mangy mutts' where Jacob and his brothers.
"I'm sorry" I said again, and then I said something that if anyone was listening would dub insane. "Come join the Volturi" I said,
"Excuse me?" she asked,
"I said, come join us. My family" I smiled,
"I just tried to kill you . . . and you want me to join your family" she stretched out the word, most people view the Volturi as a strong and feared coven, but I view them as my family.
"Yup" I smiled;
"You're a strange one" she smiled feebly.
"So that's a yes?" I asked,
"Can I really say no?" She asked as she came over,
"Probably not, do you have a talent?" I asked as we started to walk back to the Castle.
"Self preservation. I can sense danger and how to avoid it" she said,
I nodded "Nice," I jumped up the wall and started to Scale it, then I pushed open the window to reveal my room. I jumped in followed by Victoria. I immediately started my way to Aro, who was in his office. I knocked on the door,
"Come in!" Aro called, I opened the door and entered followed by Victoria. Aro looked at our guest with questioning eyes, "And who's this?" He asked,
"This is Victoria" I said, Aro held out his hand and Victoria slowly put her hand in Aro's. After seeing Victorias past thoughts, he growled.
"You planned on killing my daughter?" Victoria looked surprised that Aro called me his daughter but Aro just continued, "Then you wish to join my guard!"
"Dad, please" I said, biting my lip,
Aro sighed, "Fine, you do have a rather different gift" He mused,
"Thanks!" I smiled; Victoria looked at our casual exchanged and went wide eyed when I hugged Aro. I dragged Victoria out, who was in shock. I soon found Felix,
"Hey," I said,
"Bella" He said, but kept his eyes on Victoria, "Who's this?" He asked,
"This is Victoria, the new guard, Dad wants you to train her," I said,
"With pleasure" He said standing up, happy with my work I ran back to my room.
I lay down on my bed, bored once again. I sighed, It's sad that without Demetri, I was . . . nothing. How clingy can you get? There was a knock and I said "Come in!"
Demetri walked in and my whole mood lifted, "Hey" he said walking in and sitting on the end on my bed.
"Hi" I responded,
"You're not . . . angry with me, are you?" He asked sadly, I instantly sat up,
"No, why would you even think that?" I demanded,
"Well, normally we'd hang out after dinner and you just kind wondered off," He said,
"I just thought you'd want some alone time" I said, looking down at my hands.
"Bella, I want to spend everyone second of every minute of every hour with you for the rest of eternity" He said, suddenly I was pulled into his arms.
"I'm sorry" I sighed
"Don't be," He chuckled, "Who was that redhead?" He asked,
"Victoria" I answered
"Wait, Victoria, as in the Victoria?" He asked now I laughed, I had told Demetri everything.
"Yes, but don't hurt her" I said,
"Why!"? He demanded
"Because she's hurting" I said, looking into Demetri's eyes, "Edward killed her mate" I said he nodded and kissed my head,
"I won't lay a finger on her" He promised
"Thank you" I said, kissing him on the cheek.
"You're welcome" He chuckled.
"We'll be married in a few days" I mused,
"Yeah" Demetri grinned. "I can't wait" I smiled and kissed him
You Found Me - Time Warp – You Found Me.
Suddenly, I couldn't take it. I started to laugh, the few guard members who were in the library at the same time as me looked at me in surprise. Demetri looked up from his book and raised a questioning brow. In answer I lifted the book I was reading so he could see the cover Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. He chuckled, "Good book?" He asked, I just laughed in response, it was classical.
You Found Me – Time Warp – You Found Me.
I sighed; The Cullen's would be here in just a few short hours. How the time flies. Victoria was training furiously. Some part of me thought she was doing so, so she could rip Edward to pieces. I approached her about it and she confessed. I had to make her promise not to harm any of the guests. Reluctantly she did so. I didn't think it was fair that if I couldn't dismember Fuckward then why should she get the privilege? I smiled at the thought of dismembering him and placing each limb on a different continent.
"What as you smiling?" Demetri asked,
"The thought of dismembering Edward and placing each limb on a different continent" I said, and he laughed,
"You are truly evil" He laughed,
"I'll take that as a compliment."
Okay, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is a real book. And I LOVE it. I showed it to my English teacher she just laughed, good times. But go check it out! It's a good read. REVIEW!
