Chapter 12; Surprised
Renesmee snuggled closer to me as the castle came into view. Since it was the middle of the day, we hadn't been able to simply run all the way here. Demetri had insisted that we ride with him and Felix in his inconspicuous blue truck. I sighed. I had a feeling things weren't going to go as I had planned. I hugged Renesmee back. No matter what happened, I was not going to let them hurt her. It was a promise I had made to myself.
Demetri stopped the truck far away from the castle near a narrow dark alley. I stiffened. I could not bear to think of taking Renesmee down through that dark tunnel. What with me being able to protect her only mentally—Even months after my transformation, Edward had still refused to teach me any physical moves—and two hostile vampires, who knew what chaos would occur when no human eyes could see us!
Demetri opened the door for me and noticing my hesitation said, "Don't worry, we promise you no harm would come to you or your creation. I am a man of my word. Besides, Aro is the one who declares the punishment not us."
"And, I bet Caius won't want us to have all the fun," Felix added, grinning nastily.
I hissed under my breath but other than that didn't say or do anything. Silence was the key. I couldn't afford to make them angry now. I picked up Renesmee and started walking to where my memory appointed was the exit to the tunnel.
"You walk with such sure steps as if you have already been here. Or can you too read minds like Aro?" Demetri's voice was barely a whisper.
"You'd be surprised by how much I know about this place." My voice mirrored his, "And, no, I cannot read minds but my husband can."
"Married, are we? And who would the lucky man be? Does he know of your crime?"
"You'll soon find out."
I strode forward, declaring an end to the short conversation. We were at the exit now. I gripped Renesmee more tightly in my arms and slid in. It was damp inside and as soon as we were in, we raced forward. Ever since I had become a vampire, I had been able to see very clearly in the dark. I remembered the last time I was here and was very grateful for that fact.
We were at the entrance to the castle in mere seconds. I suppressed a shiver as I saw the human girl behind the desk. Now was not the time to show weakness. The wooden doors stood open like before but unlike the last time we were received by a couple of guards. Renesmee was trembling in my arms. After all this was her first visit to the castle and her last encounter with Aro hadn't been a pleasant one either.
Demetri seemed surprised that I knew my way around the repulsive interior of the castle. Without turning my head I asked, "Are they all gathered in the dining chamber or has Heidi managed to get you your prey already?"
He looked shocked at this and only nodding, replied, "No, they are all going to be there."
"But not because we have yet to feed but because that is where we can easily dispose of the bodies." Felix added with a sneer.
As I went through the last set of wooden doors and into the chamber, I realized that I was expecting it to be filled with vampires as it was the last time I was here. But this time, the chamber stood completely empty except for the six vampires whop stood in the centre of it.
Five of them stood with hatred plain in their scarlet eyes. I knew all of them. Aro, Caius, Marcus, Jane and Alec. The sixth vampire there had no venom in his eyes. He stood perfectly still and looked like the statue of some forgotten greek god. His bronze hair casual disarray as always and his butterscotch eyes anxious. A face my mind knew well but at that moment refused to remember.
I sighed. It was Edward.
The answer to last chapter's trivia was: 'Vampire Girl'
