Angel P.O.V
My eyes narrowed at the red eyed vampire in front of me. "I am of little consequence."
He stepped forward. "Of that I have a hard tie believing my dear." He trailed a finger over my cheek. "What with your beauty."
Seeing how Edward was giving me a side eye I kept my mouth shut figuring I needed to be good so we can get out of here. Sure enough the vamp moved onto Edward taking his hand out of Bella.
I raised a brow seeing how the vamp hovered over Edward's hand. Edward seeing mine and Bella's confusing told us what was going on.
"One touch and Aro can see every thought I've ever had in your life."
Aro smiled up at Edward tilting his head. "You're quite the soul reader yourself Edward." He glanced at Bella." Though not Bella's thoughts... Fascinating."
He stepped back and held out his hand toward Bella. "I would love to see if you are an exception to my gifts, as well. Would you do me the honor."
Bella looked over at me before taking a step toward Aro lifting her hand. He quickly snatched her hand holding it close.
"Interesting... nothing." He turned taking a few steps away before turning back. "I wonder if she is immune to other gifts... Jane?"
"NO!" Edward moved in front of Bella and froze. I glared at the blond girl named Jane my fists clinched. I saw Edward begin to groan in pain.
Bella was in hysterics. "Please stop."
Aro held up his hand and Jane looked up. "Yes Master."
"The girl."
I coiled my muscles getting ready to jump in at any indication that Bella was in pain. When nothing happened and Aro began laughing my eyes shifting to all in the room taking in everyone there. There was Aro, Jane and the one who called her sister. Then up on the raised platform where the three throne like chairs were, was two other men. One with long blond hair and the other with long black hair looking board with the other situation. Then there was the one called Felix and the other man then two more in room. We were outnumbered but I am sure if need be me shifting into a wolf will catch them off guard.
"But that's not your intention, is it. Shame." I tuned back into the conversation as Aro looked board as he looked over Bella. "Felix."
I heard Edward growl as Felix moved forward. Everything moved quickly then I could react. The other guy who I heard them call Demetri grabbed Alice and the brother to Jane grabbed Bella's arm as Edward and Felix faced off.
Aro had moved toward me as one of his other flunkies grabbed my arm. I was growling softly an glaring at the men fighting.
Bella was again panicking. Felix had gotten a grip on Edward and tossing him into the marble stairs breaking them. Before lifting him and holding his head in a tight grip.
"NO... PLEASE... NO."
Aro lifted his hand to stale Felix as he looked at Bella who continued. "Kill me kill me... not him. please."
Edward growled. "No."
Aro took a step forward and I couldn't stay quite any longer. With a growl I channeled my abilities into my hands as I ripped the vampire's arm holding me off and moved standing in front of Bella.
"You'll not touch her."
Aro tilted his head. " Then there is you. The Sekkari princess."
I swallowed, how did he know who I was. As I looked at Edward I remembered that he was reading Edward thoughts so he could have heard anything about me and what I was. Tilting my head I glared. "So you know what I am? Who cares. But I know this. You will not harm any of my friends and family."
He smirked. "Really? I am unaware of the abilities of the Sekkari so I am curious how will you help your friends. You have Edward who is a second away from death and then there is the other woman who could be taken out. Not to mention you and young Bella. How long can you hold out."
I glared my fingers twitching as I felt Bella grab the back of my shirt. "Easily." With a loud growl I threw my hands out aimed at Felix and Demetri throwing them several feet away. Pulling both Edward and Alice closer I threw my hands out again sending the vampires within feet of us away.
"Well, well, well, you are a powerful one aren't you?"
My growling became louder. "Threaten my family and it'll get worse. "
He seemed fascinated. "What more can you do my dear?"
I didn't pay attention to the gleam in my eyes as I growled louder letting the wolf side come forward. With a loud all mighty growl I shifted into my giant wolf form and stood in front of my family baring my teeth at Aro. But what happened next confused me and dare I say scared me. He laughed.
"Wonderful... Wonderful. You really must join us my dear. I would love to welcome you into our family."
I finally realized what was happening. He was finding out what I could do so he could see if it would be to his benefit. Thinking quickly I changed back and stood stone faced. "NO. I will not join your family. I have my own."
Aro sighed looking over at Bella. "But you do not my dear. I am afraid we have rules and a human can not know what we are and in young Bella knowing she is breaking said law. She must be either one of us... or Dinner."
He rushed forward touching Bella's face as Alice called out. "Wait. Bella will be one of us I've been it... I'll change her myself." As Aro's eyes shifted to me Alice continued. "Angel will also join us."
That was new to me. I watched as Aro held out his hand and Alice walked forward taking it. They were silent for a few minutes before he back away. "Fascinating to see what you have seen before they have happened..." He looked at Bella then to me. "Go make your arrangement."
The blond man on the throne scowled. "Aro?"
"Think of it brother. What abilities these two wonderful individuals will receive when they are immortal. Think of the possibilities or such a union."
He looked at Angel. "But there is something that must be done before you may go."
Edward growled and moved toward me. "NO!" HE was held back as three men moved forward grabbing me.
Aro smiled. "You are something new my dear and dare I say could be problem. We must be able to find you when we need to."
I struggled against the hands holding me. "Don't worry about that. If you let us go then there would be no reason for me to ever have anything else to do with you."
He pulled out a sharp dagger. "That is not enough my dear."
Edward and Alice fought against the men holding them. Though she tried to get by Bella was easily restrained. Alice gasped at the vision that was swimming through her mind.
"Aro please. I promise she will be no problem. Do not do this. You have no idea of what you will be setting into motion."
Aro smiled toward Alice. "I believe I do young seer."He looked at his guard. "Felix I believe you will get the honor."
Felix smiled and moved to my side. I suddenly realized when he grabbed my arm what they were going to do. They were going to let him drink my blood so he will be accustomed to my scent. Sure enough Aro walked forward and slid the knife over my arm causing my cry out at the pain. Blood poured from the wound as Felix lifted my arm to his mouth.
"Remember Felix no venom. We want her to change later."
Felix closed his mouth over my wrist drinking deeply with a hum in his throat. I thrashed as much as I could but something was making me lethargic. What did they do to me?
Aro placed a hand on Felix's shoulder. "That is enough."
Felix pulled away licking the blood from his lips as she ripped his clock and wrapped it around the wound. I felt like I was being sedated. As he finished the others let me go letting my weak knee go out from under me. Edward and Alice came forward as Alice supported me Edward grabbed Bella.
Aro smiled. "Go now. We will see each other again... very soon."
With Alice's help I was lead out of the room passing a woman in a red dress leading a group of people into the very room we left. As I felt my world go dark I heard the start of the screaming.
I hope you are enjoying the story and I will post the next chapter soon as well as the start of the third installment of this series. So see you next time and as always
