It had been the longest two days of my existence since the Volturi arrived and left behind there two watch dogs Demetri and Heidi. The two human eaters weren't really being threatening or anything, but all they ever did was watch Leah and I. I didn't like the way they would stare at her as if they were just waiting for the right moment. It rubbed me the wrong way and for that reason my family and I had agreed that my wife was not to be left alone with either of them at any time. One of us or one of the La Push wolves would always be with her to make sure the two guard members did not decide to try something.

Of course Leah was quick to become frustrated with the fact she never got a moment of private time, but she had chosen to not complain about to which I was grateful. As fate would have it I think that my wife actually felt safer with all of us around even though she had never seen that, but I saw the way she would tense whenever Demetri or Heidi were in the room with her. Her hand always wrapped around her stomach protectively whenever that happened to be around. I was starting to worry that the stress was going to complicate her fragile condition even worse. She was sleeping more and the bruises were rapidly getting worse.

"Where is your lovely wife?" Heidi said as she walked in to the room using her best catwalk walk, but I simply rolled my eyes. Heidi thought that she was the most beautiful woman in the house and she liked to flaunt her beauty to annoy my shifter and yet she always failed because Leah didn't care about Heidi and the need she had to be noticed. She knew I would never be unfaith because I wasn't that kind of guy and even I were the female vampire from Italy would never be my type. "It is almost noon and I have yet to see her. I do hope that she feeling alright?"

I scoffed and went back to reading even though I did answer her. "She is simply tired and I know you could care less about how she is feeling."

The vampire female shrugged as she looked down at her nails. "I may not care about the mutt and her pup, but I have orders to make sure she is in perfect health. Aro is very interested in her as you know and that abomination the two of you created is the next item on his list of must haves. You know you could make it a whole lot easier on us if you would just willingly come to Volterra with us. We would love to have you as a part of the guard and you would be able to keep an eye on your precious pet if you were there."

I snarled and tossed my book to the table. She was getting on my last nerve and I think Heidi knew it. That is why I tried to calm myself. I could not give her a reason to feel the need to defend her-self which is exactly what she wanted. "Leah and I are happy where we are thank you very much and we will not be joining the guard. You may think your boss will able to have his way, but you underestimate me. I will never allow Leah or my child to be involved with the Volturi. I also know why you are always following me. You think you will be able to manipulate my bond with my wife, but my brother can manipulate emotions which is stronger than your power. I suggest that if you are going to keep following me around you do it silently and if you ever refer to my wife or child in such a degrading way again Aro will be getting you back in pieces."

Heidi smiled at my threat as she stood up and came to stand in front of me. She leaned down since I was sitting and she placed her face extremely close to mine. "You know I think I like it when you are angry with me. It makes me feel all tingly and I think that you like it too."

"Get the fuck away from my husband before I tear your hair from your head one strand at a time and make a noose out of it." I heard my Quilette wife before I saw her. She had come down the stairs and was now standing behind Heidi with her hands on her hips and a glare that frightened even me. I was so glad that glare was not aimed my way.

"Heidi!" Demetri seemed to appear out of thin air as he grabbed Heidi by the arm and wrenched her away from me to which I was so thankful. "We were sent her to watch and not to threaten or proposition. You are making the Volturi look bad and I will not allow you to continue on this way. You are going to apologize right this instant or do I have to make you say how sorry you are? I could always call Aro and tell him of your ghastly behavior."

I watched as she seemed to shrivel up in to herself due to fear. She immediately looked down to the ground. "I offer my apologies for my behavior Mr. Cullen. I should not have acted in a disrespectful way and I hope that you can forgive me. My apologies to you as well Mrs. Cullen."

"You can shove your apologies were the sun doesn't shine." Leah snapped as she raised her eyebrow. "You are lucky that your companion came in before I let my pregnancy hormones out on you. I am going to make this clear and I will only be saying it once. If you ever do anything like this again Aro will be getting each part of you back in the mail wrapped with a pretty bow on the top so that about that next time you open your damn mouth."
