8. Bring it Bitch!
--------OoO--------
Bella's POV
--------OoO--------
It's been 5 years since I officially became a vampire. I learned of my other powers over the course of those years. I was able to control elements voluntarily and involuntarily depending on my mood. I had a mental and physical shield that blocked attacks and other vampire powers. I was telekinetic and I could shape-shift. That was my favorite one.
I had grown extremely close with all the Volturi. Aro had become like a father to me and Caius and Marcus like Uncles. Jane and I were good friends but still had our fights. We always made up though. Felix, Heidi and Demitri were now basically my Emmett, Jasper and Alice. I still loved the Cullens. I just didn't love Edward.
It doesn't hurt to think of him. It doesn't hurt to say his name. It just makes me want to find him and burn him alive, which I am perfectly capable of. I was beginning to get more in-tune with my powers. At first, they were out of control. I used to burn things when ever I got angry, break things, make the entire castle upset when I felt a little blue. Once, when Aro made go shopping with Gianna, I turned into a panther and went MIA for a while. It was quite frustrating. But Alec helped me through it because he is my angel.
Speaking of my angel, Alec. Did I mention that he asked me to be his wife? Well…now you know! I was so happy. I mean, really happy! That day was a sunny day. A bright, sunny, euphoric day. Heidi, Gianna, Jane and I squealed like little girls. I told them and now Jane is my maid of honor, Gianna and Heidi are my brides maids. The wedding is in 3 weeks. It's going to be a 'big deal'. Says father. I've taken to calling Aro father, or daddy if I wanted something.
Don't get me wrong, I love Charlie and I miss him so much. But I cant linger in the past. If I have to live an eternity grieving for him, I will never be happy. But he does hold a special place in my heart. The place where home is. I will always love my dad.
The castle is in full swing today. Covens have started arriving for the wedding. Some will be staying here at the castle. There is to be a big ball before the Wedding. The ball is to introduce me formally to the vampire world as Isabella Volturi. I'm not nervous per se, just…cautious. I know all the covens are coming and that undoubtedly means the Cullens as well. They think I'm dead. That's the story that Aro released. I was in a car accident. Burned beyond description. Renee was devastated. I check on her from time to time. She and Phil are still together. They have a daughter. Her name is Marlie. She's adorable. I just wish I could talk to them in person, but that isn't possible.
I was in the music room on my piano. Yes, I had become addicted to playing. I even played my lullaby from time to time. I hated Edward but I still love that song. It's a part of me. Of my life at a happier time. A time before the hate and anger and pain. I time I miss, but would never return to if given the choice.
I felt warm hands on my shoulders as I sat at the piano. They massaged me, making me slump slightly. Alec.
"How are you my dear?" He asked. He had gone hunting with Jane and Felix. I stayed behind. I didn't hunt as much anymore. As my powers grew stronger, my bloodlust decreased. I only fed when I needed to interact with many humans at once.
"I'm fine. Have fun hunting?" I turned to face him. I was sitting and he still stood. My head was now about the height of his chest. I leaned in and snuggled there.
"Yes, it was nice. I got a car jacker. Jane got a escaped felon. Felix…well Felix is careless." He frowned at this. We had taken to only killing humans that were criminals. It felt horrible to kill innocent people. But Felix, he didn't stick to that any more than the nomads did. That damned Felix. But he was my brother. I loved him dearly.
"That's good. I get to punish him now. But you get a prize." I gave him a sly smile and bit his chest gently. He moaned.
"Oh really, and when-" He didn't finish. We were rudely disrupted by Caleb, one of the guards.
"Lady Isabella. Master Aro with like to speak with you in the throne room." He said. I nodded and he left. I looked up at my Alec.
"Rain check?" He asked. I nodded and we made our way to the thrown room
Father was sitting in his normal spot with Uncle Caius to his left and Uncle Marcus to his right. They all wore their 'Bella's going to be pissed' faces. What the hell is going on?
"Isabella dear, please, sit." I walked to my throne. It was placed next Marcus. Alec followed and sat beside me.
"Yes?" I asked simply looking at them. I could feel their nerves. What did they do now? They always found a way to anger me. Whether it be sending me on a mission far from Alec or making me shop with Heidi and the wives. The always found a way. Lets see what the guys have done this time around.
"Well, we are having some guests today. They will be staying in the castle until the ball and if you approve, the wedding." My father's voice was slow and cautious because he knew I was a ticking time bomb. One wrong move and BOOM! I go off. I decided to play a game with them all. I knew he meant the Cullens. Why else would he expect me to give a damn what covens came. It was no different with the Cullens. I don't care. If they want trouble then, Aro be damned, trouble they shall get. Like Emmett used to say: Bring it, Bitch!
"What visitors, daddy?" That's right, I played the daddy card! He gave me slight smile. He was giving waves and waves of nervousness and fear. I would never hurt my father or Uncles but I was intimidating at times.
"Um, the Cullens." He leaned back in his throne as if to flinch away from an on coming train. I had to hold back a laugh. This is going to be good. I stared at them with my poker face. When ever I was really pissed, I showed no emotion. That's how Alec knew if I were really okay or not. I had no emotion on my face as I stared blankly at my Father and Uncles. I could see Uncle Marcus flinch. I fought a giggle.
"Daddy…" I made my body shake with fake anger. Omg. If they fall for this I will not let them live it down. I let the heat build in my hands and I saw the smoke start to generate. Alec tried to hold me but I gave him a 'back the fuck up' look. He did.
"Now, darling. Just…relax." Father reached out to me but I put up my shield. His hand hit an invisible wall.
"RELAX? HOW COULD YOU ARO?! YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE THEM!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'D DO THIS TO ME!!" I was yelling very loud and I could hear the thunder out side. This is defiantly gonna be hilarious.
"Honey, I am sorry. I can make them leave. They are already here but I can have them escorted off this property." He looked genuinely scared now. How I managed to frighten Aro Volturi remains a mystery to me. I stood up and got in his face.
"I only have one thing to say to you, Aro…" I was leaking venom and my right hand was flickering flames. I couldn't hold my laughter much longer…
"W-What is that, dear?" He was leaning as far away from me as he could. I shot him one evil glance and then burst out laughing. I was rolling on the floor clutching my sides. If I were human I would be dead. It was so funny. They all looked at me with stunned disbelief only making me laugh harder.
"I-CAN'T…BELIEVE YOU…FELL…FOR…THAT!!!" I yelled between laughter. Alec looked into my eyes, probably gauging my mood then he had a smile on his face, then a grin. Then he was laughing just as hard as I was.
"Isabella, that was hilarious!" He kissed me softly on the lips.
"Why, thank you my darling, fiancée!" I was getting off the floor now. Aro and my uncles looked pissed. Oops.
"You. Were. Joking?" Asked Aro.
"You. Aren't. Mad?" Asked Marcus
"That. Was. Brilliant!" Exclaimed Uncle Caius with his diehard smirk.
"Yup! I was joking. I'm not mad. And yes Uncle, I know I'm brilliant." I gave my uncle a quick hug. He returned it.
"So, Isabella. You don't have a problem with the Cullens staying here." My father asked me. I bet he thought would go AWOL and try to murder them.
"Nope. Why would I be. The past is the past. Let it be that. I won't let them ruin my happiness. And if they try, I'll handle them." I gave my father a kiss on the cheek.
"That's my little soldier! Never let'm bring you down!" Dad said. it's a rare thing to see Aro smile but when he does, it makes you smile too.
"So when are they coming, father." I asked taking my place on my thrown.
"Oh, in about…Now." He said and then he put on his 'I'm a tough cookie' face. It was quite cute, really.
I turned forward and put on my 'try me' face as the family that had changed my life for better and for worse walked through the door. This. Is. Going. To. Be. FUN.
A.N. I know this chapter wasn't near serious. But come on! Bella lives with the VOLTURI! I needed a happy moment before the Cullens come. Edward's gonna get it! And his little dog too! Just Kidding!!
