I had to edit this chapter a lot, but I hope you all like it! :)


It was nearly dark when Chloe made it into the house. She had successfully managed to get out of the house for a while without anyone having to follow her. It was good to spend more time with Jacob and the others. Her family rarely let her go anywhere near the Reservation. Chloe didn't know why the Cullen's didn't get on well with the Quilette tribe. She knew that they were natural enemies, but surely that was just them all being stubborn. They had spoken to her briefly about the Treaty, but not was spoken about them. If they could all just get on they could make a beneficial alliance. Especially as the Cullen's didn't consume human blood. However, with the Volturi here, it did start to cause some problems. The Tribe are even more watchful than before, waiting for anyone to slip up. Everyone was driving her crazy. She felt so exhausted as she shrugged out of her black leather jacket. Her head started to spin as she kicked her shoes off. Her throat felt dry and worn as she made her way to the kitchen. She made her way to the fridge and immediately opened a soda. Her head tilted back in relief as she consumed every last drop. As she binned her can a shiver ran up her spine, alerting her to someone's presence in the room. Chloe made sure to turn around slowly as she came faced to face with the smiling Felix.

"Weilà Chloeeee…" Felix batted his eyelashes at her.

"Sup?" Chloe emphasized the p, letting it pop from her mouth deliberately.

Chloe walked around him, avoiding his gaze. She exited the kitchen and made her way through the spacious hallway of the second floor. She could feel Felix following closely behind her. She was just about to climb the stairs when Felix appeared in front of her. Chloe sighed in annoyance.

"What do you want Felix? Why don't you go and amuse yourself with a ball or something" she exclaimed, agitation clearly written all over her facial expression.

"Did the dog behave himself?" he grinned knowingly.

"Go away Felix I'm not in the mood right now" She shoved past him, trying not to show everyone how she really felt. The atmosphere felt constricting beyond comprehension and she couldn't bare it any longer.

She moved with frantic steps up the many stairs, her heart starting to pound loudly in her chest. When she made it into her safe sanctuary, she shut the door more forcefully than she had intended to. Chloe slid down the door, the tears finally falling from her eyes as she hugged her knees to her chest; burying her head on top of her knees, she finally let the raw emotion she felt force it's way out of her. 'Now I know why people say life is hard'. She desperately wanted to please her family, they have done so much for her in the past 16 years that she had been here. But she wanted to also have a say in what went on. They all probably thought that she was just a weak human, incompatible for making her own choices.

Aro watched Chloe shove past Felix roughly, she almost looked to be in pain as her face grimaced. His dead heart clenched at the sight. 'I have to tell her' he thought. She would probably reject him, laugh in his face, maybe even try to punch him as that was her style. He honestly couldn't blame her. He was a selfish and possessive man. At that moment he didn't give a flying Caius in hell if Edward heard his thoughts, he was going to claim the women he loved.

Chloe didn't know how long she lay sobbing in a fetal position on her bedroom floor. She didn't care about anything anymore. Her back was aching and she couldn't move. Her once smiling face, now stained with the silent tears that were long overdue. She tried to fight the gut wrenching sickness she felt, but to no avail. She only wanted one person to comfort her right now, but she was afraid to even think about it.

After a while of moping around on the floor, Chloe's phone began to vibrate as she was in deep thought. 'Not now' she thought bitterly. She really couldn't be bothered to get up and answer it, but she managed to haul herself to her feet anyway as the sound of her phone became more persistent, more determined.

She took one look at the caller ID and her eyes had to do a double take. She almost dropped her phone in disbelief. The person calling her was none other than Aro. 'Since when did he learn how to use his phone?' she thought inquisitively. He was always so old-fashioned, the one with the neat handwriting that she was so intensely jealous of. Nonetheless, she answered it nervously.

"You do realise your room is only 15 human seconds away from mine?" 'Well more like half a second in your case anyway' she mused.

Aro rolled his eyes on the other end. "I know that, I just thought I would learn how to use this thing" he eyed the phone with disdain as if it would kill him in a matter of seconds.

"Anyway as nice as it is to hear your voice, is there something you want?" she asked curiously.

'More than you know' he thought sadly. He tried to put on a cheery attitude anyway. "Yes, I want you to look out your window" he stated matter-of-factly, whilst pretending to be interested in his finger nails.

'What' she thought to herself. "Why?" she asked him suspiciously.

"Just do it" he tried to clap his hands giddily like he usually does when he's excited about something. But, he realised he was still holding the phone in his hand. So he settled for grinning like a cheshire cat instead.

She did as he said and drew the curtain back, revealing the serene forest a head. Chloe opened her window cautiously and looked down, still holding her phone against her ear. When she saw Aro standing below her window on the grass, she slowly removed her phone from it's resting position on her shoulder. Aro started to do the same as he snapped his shut and put it back into the pocket of his tailored blazer.

"What are you doing? It's like you're trying to get me to runaway with you or something?" she grinned.

"Maybe I am" he said truthfully, although she didn't know that.

For her normal escape plan she would always use her bedroom window. So it was no surprise to anyone when she began to climb out of her bedroom window and down the wall. When she thought she was near the bottom she jumped, Aro was quick to catch her bridal style; enveloping her into his lean, muscular body. She immediately locked her arms around his neck, entangling her hands into his lustrous ebony hair.

"Why is it that you never use the front door like everybody else?" he murmured humorously at her.

"Human habit I guess" she grinned.

Looking up into his face, into his blood red eyes, she searched for any clues as to what was happening. "Where are you taking me?" she murmured against his neck. She had no idea what was happening, but she was all the more curious. Being near this man only made her more and more excited with each passing second.

His soft looking lips curled upwards into a devilish smirk. "You'll see" he whispered.

Aro held on to her tightly; wrapping his arms protectively around her, holding her closer to him before taking off towards the spacious forest at vampire speed.

Aro didn't stop until he found what he was looking for. He guided them towards that secret opening in between the trees that would lead them to his destination. He had seen it before in her mind and knew it meant something significant to her. Aro gently set her on her feet, but still stayed in close proximity to her.

"The meadow?" she breathed. "Why did you bring us here?" she mused more to herself than to anyone else.

Surrounding the advantageous space, were tall pine trees that surrounded the familiar bedding of long grass that swayed against the gentle caresses of the breeze. Beneath the clusters of stars that inhabited the sky, the many wild flowers seemed to reflect their rays of tranquillity, as if coming to life.

Chloe began to walk around her favourite place, enjoying how the soft grass felt like the most delicate of silks beneath her bare feet. Her open palm glided alongside her as she gently stroked the flowers with her fingertips. She smiled to herself as she continued to walk past them in turn.

Aro observed her in fascination as her face seemed to glow, mirroring the star's gentle light. His eyes locked on to those of her wild blue ones as she turned back around to face him. Chloe blushed slightly under his powerful gaze. Aro's feet began to move of their own accord as if they had a mind of their own. Before he knew it, he was standing before her, her scent clouding his mind, making him feel like he'd been drugged. No words were needed between them at this moment.

All of a sudden Aro closed the gap between them as his lips locked on to those of Chloe's with a sudden ferocity and hunger he had never known before. His hand came up to gently cup the side of her head, as the other joined her waist, pulling her flush against him.

Chloe tensed at first, not expecting his sudden attack on her mouth. After a couple of seconds she slowly began to ease into the kiss. She brought her arms up to lock around his neck, pinning him to her. Her hands easily sliding in between his silken strands.

Aro felt her tense against him and became worried that he had frightened her and began to think of a way to apologise to her. He began to pull away, but Chloe suddenly locked her arms around his neck. Her hands dove violently into his hair, destroying his once immaculate and pristine tresses. She returned his kiss with equal fervour. Aro groaned against her mouth. He bit down on her bottom plump lip to seek entrance, but not hard enough to draw blood. She immediately responded by opening just enough for his tongue to slip into her mouth, entwining with hers. She moaned into his mouth softly as he tilted her head slightly to deepen the kiss. He answered her with an animalistic growl of his own as they both battled for dominance. His growl went straight to her core as he began to leave her mouth in search of her neck. If he wasn't holding on to her, she swear she would fall to the floor in a heap. His hand fisted into her hair as the soft flesh of her creamy neck was exposed to him and only to him. Chloe's breath hitched as he began to place hot open-mouthed kisses all over her neck. Her whole body felt like it was on fire, in contrast to his cold skin her body prickled with pleasure. He suddenly became her need for air as she kissed him with all of the restrained passion that had been building up.

"S.. so long. I've wanted to do this" he groaned out in between breaths, although they were unnecessary he felt like he needed to breath. After a while, he gently managed to release her neck as he stared into her eyes, searching for any kind of discomfort. He found none. Chloe cupped his cheek with her hand, stroking his alabaster skin between her fingertips. She couldn't find the words to speak; afraid that she would spew some stupid nonsense. Aro cupped her cheek gently, caressing her soft skin with the pad of his thumb. His thumb traced the outline of her slightly bruised lips. As she looked away from his penetrating gaze, he caught her chin in between his thumb and index finger.

"I love you Chloe" he whispered. "I have for a while" he finally admitted. Chloe's heart skipped a beat as she searched his eyes for what she didn't know. Without warning, she grabbed his hand as she lifted the protective barrier currently shielding her mind, letting Aro read every one of her thoughts. Aro searched her thoughts almost greedily, it was always very intriguing to read her thoughts.

She smiled up at him letting Aro read all she had felt, her hand falling back into his slightly tussled hair. "I dare say it, but I've fallen hard for you to Aro Volturi" she ginned teasingly at him.

Aro laughed gently before pulling her back into his embrace, crashing his lips back on to hers. His mouth moved to place soft butterfly kisses along her jaw before moving back down to her neck. Chloe's moan of pure bliss went straight to his groin. She pulled on his hair to pull his head back up so that she could lock her lips on to his, already missing their familiarity.

"You're so beautiful" he murmured softly against her lips. His lips descended back on to hers, their mouths were like weapons as they tortured the other senseless.

Chloe's hands intertwined into his hair, searching for the clip that restrained the sides of his hair out of his face. Once she found it, she unclasped it, letting it fall to the ground forgotten. Her hands came back to rest on his broad shoulders, pulling the sides of his Armani blazer off of him. Aro stopped his attack on her mouth just for a moment so that he could help ease the blazer off. He tossed it to the ground somewhere behind him carelessly. He gently fell to the ground, his ebony hair splayed around his head like a halo.

Chloe fell on top of him, her lips never leaving his. He assaulted her mouth with equal satisfaction. She slowly began to unbutton his shirt as his hands came to her waist, pinning her on top of him. He sat up so that she could divest him of his now restricting shirt.

As more of his skin was revealed to her, she began to move from his jaw to his neck. She bit down on his neck before sucking it as if to heal it as she then started to kiss her way down his chest and torso. Aro's eyes rolled back in their sockets. It was taking all of his self control not to flip them over and take her there and then.

Aro's voice came out hoarsely as he watched with torturous fascination what her mouth was doing to his highly aroused body. "You are mine and o..only mine, as I am only yours".

Those words made her stop what she was doing and as she looked up at him with curious eyes, before her smile turned into a devilish grin that would easily rival his own. "As I am yours" she whispered before concealing his mouth with hers.

Aro's hand came up to grip her shirt. He was far too impatient so he pulled the shirt over her head and off her body. Aro's mouth searched the new found flesh, his sensuous lips closing around the area where her neck met her shoulder. His hands continued to roam her body, trying to touch every inch of her skin that he could find. Chloe's breath came out in short gasps, but she didn't stop what she was doing. Her hands stroked his muscular body before traveling south. She ground her hips against his so sensuously that it made Aro growl out with frustration.

"Grrr…" he groaned out deeply. By now, she knew she was probably as wet as the weather here.

Her hand searched for the metal buckle of his belt almost desperately, but before she could undo it Aro flipped them over, pinning her body down with his.

"Ti desidero così tanto che fa male!" she groaned out in disappointment, her body still highly sensitive to his touch.

Aro kissed her forehead. "I know amore mio. I want you more than life itself, but I don't want to rush you into anything that you might regret later".

Chloe raised an eyebrow at him. "If you think that I will regret this then you are a fool Aro. I trust you" she murmured.

"I could hurt you Chloe. I've never done this with a human before. I don't want to hurt you" he whispered as if trying to plead with her, but his body was betraying him. And soon all of him would.

"I don't care. I don't want to be away from you anymore" she whispered, her voice so delicate and unsure. Aro's forehead gently rested upon hers as their breathing started to slow.

Aro wanted this as much as she did, but her well being would always remain his first priority above all others.
