Earlier chapter
"Isabella Marie Swan, will you marry me?"
I was frozen. I couldn't speak. I was in shock. Edward still on the floor with a ring in his hand.
"So, what do you say? Um. Bella?" He looked at me again then looked down to the floor. "Maybe it is a bit too soon, I guess." Then I launched myself at him by kissing him.
"Yes."
"Yes, what?"
"Yes, I'll be your wife." Edward mouth popped opened.
"Really?" I rolled my eyes.
"Really."
"Really?"
"Really."
"I mean really?"
"Ask me again and I will deny you." Then he hug me and started kissing me.
"Thank you."
"Why are you thanking me?"
"'Cause you said yes." I threw my head back and laughed. He took out the ring. The ring had a diamond in the center, and rectangle diamonds on the strips of the platinum. The diamond was held in the center by the two strips of platinum (on profile). He put it on my finger.
"A perfect fit." I laughed as he spun us around. Then a thought popped into my head.
"Edward, where are the others?"
"Oh, they're watching. So I think that we have to keep this G rated." Then Alice walked out.
"Ha, I told you Edward that she would accept but you didn't believe me. I mean no one believes me half of the time. I mean I can see the future!" I raised an eyebrow at her.
"So dramatic Alice." She stuck her tongue at me. I shook my head.
"Bella, can I PLEASE plan you wedding?" Alice begged then got onto her knees.
"Bow, Alice bow." She started bowing before me. Then everyone cracked up. "Stop. You may plan my wedding but I must first approve of something before you do it. Do you understand?" She nodded cheerfully. "This means that I can say no to any of your plans. Also the wedding must follow the tradition of Witches and Humans." Then her jaw fell open. "Ha, I bet that you didn't see that coming, Pixie." She glared at me.
Boy, do I have a bipolar family.
"Bella, Edward when do you want to do the wedding?" Alice asked us. I looked at Edward.
"Edward, do you want to do it during June?"
"Anything is good for me as long as it is before July."
"Hey, did you know that we will be getting married when we are Juniors in high school." I chuckled.
"Yup, and you barely pass for a adult. You're barely 17 in human years." I growled.
"I wouldn't be talking. You are younger than in me in actual life."
"Okay, so can we get back to the topic?" Alice asked loudly. I nodded. "You said that it had to follow the tradition of the Witches, right?" I nodded. "What is this tradition?"
"The tradition is that we have to get married during the night of the full moon, also we have drink the others blood in wine." They were both quiet.
"Um, Bella don't you see a problem. We don't bleed." Edward pointed out.
"Edward, all things bleed. When a vampire is changed some of their original blood is left. They say that you drink blood to refill yourself. The blood that you have in you will still have a droplet of your human blood. Remember when you are a newborn, your body drink your own blood. That will be the blood that we are going to drink."
"But how are you going to get into out? Our skin in hard as marble."
"Your skin is very similar as a Croatans. We have weapons that can slice your skin. So that is no worry. The only worry is making sure that you don't loose control when you drink that drop of my blood." He nodded understanding. "Otherwise, everything will be human-like."
"Okay, know that is told. It will be on the night of June the 22nd." That was going to be the date of the wedding. "Hey, that is two days after Edward's birthday." I smiled at him. Oh, this would be fun. I can just imagine what Emmett and Jasper would do to him on his birthday and his bachelor party. I chuckled at the thought.
"Bella, why does it have to be during the full moon?" Alice asked.
"Well, werewolves transform during the full moon. Do ever feel stronger than other nights sometimes?" They nodded. "Everything is connected to the moon and the sun. We, supernatural creatures are children of the moon not just the werewolves. Why do you think that we don't feel very comfortable in the sun? It is because we dont't really belong to the sun. Well, humans do. Croatans are your traditionally vampires except for the garlic, stakes, coffins, crosses, fangs, and their skin. Croatans skin is hard as rock but when they go into the sun their skin also like softens so it is easier to kill them then. But at night time their skin is rock hard and no human force can kill them."
"But still why during the full moon?"
"During the full moon, we are our strongest. Including werewolves have to come to the wedding don't you think?"
"Okay, we are going to start looking for dresses now. JASPER!!! EMMETT!!!" Alice called for them. When they arrived she said,"Jasper, Emmett you guys will be in charge of Edward. Like I am in charge of Bella. You guys will choose his suits and everything. I don't want to see him wearing a lime green tux with a purple tie. I will make some ideas for what. Now go get started. Bella, you're coming with me." What had I gotten myself into? I gulped. Edward looked at me with the same face as I did.
I wish Edward and I could run without ruining anything. Then Edward picked me up, bridal style and out ran all of them. When he stopped we were in Canada.
"Were you reading my mind or something?" I asked.
"No, but I wish I could hear you. I just knew that you wanted the same thing I wanted, which was to get out of there as fast as I could."
"Yeah. I wonder if Alice visions are failing her. She hasn't been knowing things as much as she used to. She now is always surprised."
"Yeah, I noticed that too. I haven't seen her have a vision yet for a few days now. Is something wrong with her?"
"I don't know why her visions are failing. I just know, as more creatures come in, the more blind she gets."
"Well, we better get back before she sends the others after us." I nodded in agreement. You could never hide from that Pixie for long.
Edward and I slowly ran back home after our little discussion. There in the house was waiting a very angry Alice. I swear you could see the steam coming out of her ears. I looked around for Jasper, but he was gone.
"Where the hell have you two been?! I almost sent out a party looking for you!"
"Calm, Alice, calm." I spoke to her in a soothing voice. She seemed to calm down, Jasper had to here somewhere. I looked at the stairs, there stood Jasper.
"Bella, come on. We have to get ready for school. I know as much as you like to be here at the house waiting for everyone to arrive but we still ought to be going to school." I groaned. "Also I might want to keep Emmett away from the humans. I can see him yelling 'Belly, Eddy finally getting married'. I admitted, it is kind of a funny sight but we can't let Emmett tell the humans." I nodded.
"Edward grab my specialized rope that is in my blue suitcase." I told him as all three of us started walking toward Rosalie and Emmett's room.
Ten Minutes Later
We had Emmett tied up and gagged. We had his legs and arms tied to together in the back. He looked like a tied chicken. We also put Rosalie's clothes in his mouth. He was screaming, "Let me go! What did I do?!" We told Rosalie what was going to happen and she helped us tie him up. She was actually the one to gag Emmett.
"Do you think that we punished Emmett enough?" I asked Edward. He nodded.
"Okay, Emmett. We are going to let you go but before we so, you have to promise that you won't let out secret that Bella and I are getting married." Edward nodded to Emmett's thought since we can't hear him. "Okay, let him go."
Once Emmett was free he ran out of the room.
"Oh, he is just afraid that he'll get tied again." Rosalie rolled her eyes.
"Wow, Rosalie. Your certainly have a man."
"I know."
"Bella, what kind of rope is that?" Alice asked me.
"That is a specialized rope for vampires. You see when we took prisoners aka Croatans we tied them up with that kind of rope. The rope has the toughest material braided into it like diamonds, Lutetium, and titanium. The titanium makes the rope lighter so we can carry it easier." I grabbed the rope and admired it.
"What other kinds of weapons do you have?"
"Well, we are very creative. We have swords that can cut through you like butter and chain that won't break, not even Emmett could break should I say. We have fire arrows."
"Whats a fire arrow?"
"They are arrows that are made from the bark of the fire tree. The fire tree is the heart of fire. Most people think that fire in just a natural thing but it isn't. The fire tree is almost like the parent of fire. It has many offsprings. That is where most of the forest fire start at. You see if you kill the tree, you kill every fire in the entire world. The bark from the tree is very special. Stabbed with one arrow, you'll burn inside out." I explained. "This one of our most priced posessions."
"Anything else?" Edward asked.
"We have in human words 'Zeus Lightning Bolt' but we call it 'Alva Parafuso'. In english it mean the Dawn Bolt."
"You mean the actually lightning bolt?" Alice gasped.
"Well, not the kind of lightning bolt you see in the drawings. The Alva Parafuso is very large and heavy. Only the strongest warrior can carry it. The bolt is about four feet tall. It looks like silver with engraving of the sea on it. It can and it will kill anything."
"So I guess I better get the move Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief out of my head then." Alice chuckled.
"Percy Jackson?"
"Um, it is a movie that will come out in 2010."
"2010!" All of us gaped at her.
"That is like in five more years!!"
"I know!!"
"Alright, Edward lets go get ready for another boring day go school with humans." I sighed then I heard Rosalie yell.
"Bella, can I have you rope!?" I so didn't want to know what she'll do with it.
Later
Edward and I were now at school. I was wearing a school girl uniform with a plaid skirt. Alice and Rosalie attacked me before I even got to my closet. I hate wearing skirt or even dresses. Alice and Rosalie were wearing the same outifit I was wearing but a different color. I didn't get to ride with Edward, again because the girls were fighting with their men.
The girls and I arrived at the school after the boys. Alice saying, "Beauty takes time." We stepped out of my Camaro, everyone's eyes turn toward us. The boys eyes were fillled with lust while the girls eyes were filled with jealously.
Edward and the boys walked very quickly toward us. Edward took off his pea coat and put it around me. I rolled my eyes.
"Edward!" I whined while he shook his head.
"Bella, I don't want any other male looking at you rather than myself." I smiled evilly.
"Edward, you have my heart in your hands. We are getting married for god sake. Plus if we are going to be together for the rest of eternity, then you should get use of men looking at me." He growled then started buttoning up the jacket. I started to rub myself against Edward then turn around and looked deeply into is eyes, taking control of him. "Edward, unbutton the jacket." He complied. "Take off the jacket and put it back on." He complied again. Then I broke contact with him, losing control over him.
His eyes started to blink as he started gaining control again. Then he looked at me and seen that I wasn't wearing his jacket. He looked down at himself and seen that he was wearing the jacket.
"How in the world did this happen?" I giggled and raised my hand. "Bella, it isn't nice to control your soon-to-be husband." He shook his head. I laughed again.
"But, Edward, it is SO much fun!"
"Bella." Edward looked at me seriously. Then Rosalie popped in.
"What was Bella giggling about?"
"I took control over Edward and made him take off the jacket." I giggled again. Then she burst into a heartly laugh. Emmett passed us skipping, humming. "Edward, what is he humming? For some reason I have a feeling that he is planning something."
"Emmett is saying, 'Belly and Eddie finally getting married'. Are you thinking the same I'm thinking Bella?"
"If it has a visual of Emmett being choked, then yes." We both nodded and walked calmly toward Emmett.
It was June the 15th. One more week and Edward and I would be man and wife. So we were doing the last touch ups. Alice says "Rather be sure than sorry."
"Bella, turn this way. Stay right there. And DONE!!" Alice commanded me as fitted my dress which she made by hand. She says that she won't buy me a dress that comes off the shelf. "Now look at the mirror." She brought in a body length mirror that was at least five times her size. I gasped.
The dress was PERFECT. Its sleeves were loose that slag down. The bodice was fitted nicely against my skin, where it showed all of my curves. It had a full long skirt which touched the ground. There was three layers in the skirt. The very bottom layer had those poofy things that ballet dancers wear. The second layer was thin silk was embroice. The top layer was golden silk, that had gold roses at the top going to down. It was open in the front where you could see all three layers. (On profile). The trail was long. It was embodied with the gold lines.
Then she put on my wedding tiara. She also designed it,too. Like what I said, she could design the crowns also. My wedding tiara was peaked brow line with a curtain of dangling tear drop pearls that rest on my forehead (On profile). I looked at myself in the mirror again. Then I hugged Alice.
"Let me guess that theme is gold and black." I told her. She nodded. "Now let me see you, and Rosalie inside of the bridesmaid dress. She nodded and grabbed Rose and put on the dress.
The bridesmaid dresses were also like mine. But not so grand. It was sleeveless and the same gold color my dress was. There was patterns are the dress (on profile). I smiled.
"Well, well don't you two look dashing!" They both smiled.
"No one will be staring at us with you in the room Bella." Rosalie stated as if were a true fact. I rolled my eyes.
"Rose, isn't that supposed to be the point." I laughed as she just rolled her eyes at me.
Rose and I no longer argue our heads off at each other anymore, we practically get together to tackle Edward and Emmett down. We can be evil when we want to be, especially when it comes to Edward and Emmett, but of course what make you think that they would pick on us.
"Bella, Edward is bugging me in the future asking when he can look into our heads. He will be knocking on the door in exactly three minutes. What do you want me to say?"Alice asked me. I shrugged.
"Only you can lend the horse to the water." She nodded and opened the door and yelled.
"Edward, you can't look into our head until ten o'clock tonight!!" Then she closed the door chuckling. Then I heard Edward groan.
"Edward, are you not used to their silent thoughts?" I snickered.
"Na, it is just hard not trying to listen to their thoughts." I rolled my eyes. "Also Bella, it isn't nice to roll your eyes at me when I am not there." How in the world did he know that I was rolling my eyes?
"How did you know that?"
"I just know you, Bella."
"Stalker.." I whispered knowing that everyone could hear me. Then Alice and Rosalie started laughing their hearts out.
"Of course, I'm a stalker to you Isabella. How in the world would I know that you hate mustard on your hot dogs when you are really hungry and don't have any blood?"
After the whole mess with preparing the wedding was done with every creature started pouring in. The fairies, the children of the moon, the Alphyns, the Phoenixs, more shapeshifters, the Tribe of the Căpcăun, more (fire, wind, water) dragons.
Edward couldn't truly be king until everyone of the Conclave has agreed upon ones who didn't truly accept Edward was the Tribe of the Căpcăun. They were stubborn as hell. So there was no way into changing their minds once they set on that mission.
Flashback
"Burak, what is your decision?" I asked the leader of the Căpcăun. He looked thoughtful for a minute or so.
"Gabriel, the tribe and I don't trust the descendant of the Croatan. But that doesn't means that he can't still earn our trust. We hold no objection against him ruling the Conclave but we simply do not trust him. I hope you understand, Gabriel." I nodded.
"Thank you for telling us the Conclave your opinion."
End of Flashback
I thought back to that memory as I sat outside of the house. Then I heard Edward come outside.
"Love, what are you doing out here?"
"Nothing just thinking."
"About what?"
"Basically the past. When I first came here I thought that Volturi wanted my throne. Now I find out that they actually wanted to kill off the witches so they could rise the Croatans without having to worry about us." I sighed.
"Bella, love, we don't have to worry about them. We have dragons, phoenixs, fairies, vampires and many others on our side. What do they have? They only got one choice and that is the Croatans." I sighed again.
"I don't know, Edward. I have a feeling that one of us here is betraying us. I don't know who but I just got that feeling that someone here is with the Volturi and not telling it. I never doubt my gut feelings before. They are always right. Even in the War of Alexander, I had a feeling. Guess what? Levithan was actually the one giving them information. I have that gut feeling again."
"Bella, are your forgetting something. Everyone in here hates the Volturi and Croatans with a passion. The Croatans and the Volturi killed someone that everyone loved. Like the Croatans killed Wosret's mate. Or like the werewolves that lost their family in the which the Volturi caused. Everyone here hates them with a passion."
"Edward, did you ever think of the vampires?"
"Bella, I don't think that one of our family members would betray us? Do you?"
"I have a feeling that it is in my family. I don't know who though."
"Bella, you could just be imaging it. You probably think that someone will betray us because it happened in previous wars for you." I nodded understanding what he meant.
"Edward, I think that you're right. I think that I am just being paranoid." Edward nodded. "Hey, do you think that I am paranoid?" Edward smiled then got up. "Oh, you didn't." He just kept walking, smiling. "You're going to pay for that Mister." He chuckled at me.
"How would that be?"
"You aren't going to get anything from me till after the wedding." Then I walked past him. When I did so I looked at him, his mouth was practically on the ground. Then I looked at Rosalie and Alice who were standing by the front door. Rosalie was laughing at Edward's reaction. Alice was shaking her head.
Then I looked at Emmett and Jasper. Emmett was giving Jasper some money.
"Uh, Emmett why are you giving Jasper a hundred dollars?"
"Emmett and I were betting on you and what your reaction would be." Jasper answered me.
"Let me guess. You guys were betting that I would either kiss Edward or make his jaw fall, right?" They nodded.
"Emmett said that you guys were going to go all lovey-dovey while I said that you were going to put him in his place. And guess who won? Me!!" Jasper screamed excitingly. I rolled my eyes.
"Jasper, are you sure your not Alice?" He stopped and glared at me. Then Alice got hurt.
"Whats wrong being like me, Jazz?" Hes a dead man.
"Bella, you have one more night till the wedding!! One night till you are officially my sister!!!" Alice screamed. I covered my ears.
"Alice, you don't have to scream. I have a better hearing than a human but I don't know about now. I think you blew up my ear drum." She glared at me.
"Bella, you know since you don't sleep, we should go take you on your first bachelor party!!" Rosalie screamed. Oh, sweet lord, please save me from my crazy sisters-to-be. I gulped.
One hour later
"Owww! Rose watch the hair!" I screamed as Rosalie brushed my hair. "Rose, you have been brushing my hair for what seems hours." I grumbled. She rolled he eyes.
"Bella, your hair has to be perfect! This the last day of you being a bachelor!"
"Well, technically I'm not a bachelor because I was married to Michael in the past-" I was cut of by Alice.
"Please, Bella. That was in the 19th century. We're in the 21st century, so live up a little!" Alice rolled her eyes as if it were the most obvious thing in world.
"Alice, are you forgetting my human morales?"
"Please, Bella. Like anyone follow those these days." Alice rolled her eyes again.
"Whats with everyone rolling their eyes at me?!" I screamed as Alice pulled me into the closet. My death place, I called it.
She started pulling out all of these outfits and putting them together on me. Then she would step back and shake her head and get another outfit. You'd think that she would see the outfit in a vision but now she was doing it the old fashion way. Finally, she came upon a black shirt that had the sleeves very low till where they were almost hanging and the sides of the sleeves and the shirt were tied. Then she pull ot dark wash jeans.
"Bella, what are we going to do with you?" Rosalie asked. I wonder what Edward is doing. Hopefully, he is having much of a better time than I am.
"Bella, Edward is getting tortured just like you. I bet he got it worse. This is Emmett we're talking about. Right now I see him giving Edward a lecture on which are the best positions when mating and how to please the female. So Edward is getting taught by Emmett. Edward seems to be in pain by Emmett's knowledge of things." Alidce told me before I could ask.
Okay, I feel a bit better now knowing that Edward has it worse. I so can't wait till the night is done with.
Thirty Minutes Later
I walked out of Alice room wearing the black shirt, dark wash jeans, and black pumps. Cassandra and Katie were waiting in the dining room. They both smiled when they looked at me. Cassandra whistled at me.
"Shake that ass!!" Katie yelled. I laughed. Then Cassandra, Alice pretended to be crying.
"Oh, Cassandra look. Our baby now is all grown up." Alice sobbed. I rolled my eyes as Cassandra pretended to balm her eyes out.
"Guys, enough. Okay can we get done with this night already." Then Wosret came into the dining room. His eyes popped when he seen us girls. Then he cleared his throat.
"Well, evening ladies. I hope that you have a great night. Also Bella.. um.. congratulations." Then he turn to walk out. I eyed the brooch that he was wearing. It looked like mine. Mine with the camera on it.
"Wosret, why are you wearing my brooch that has the mini camera?" I asked him. He looked scared like he been caught stealing cookies from cookie jar.
"Um, nothing. I t-thought that it just looked n-nice." He stuttered. I raised an eyebrow.
"Wosret, don't think that I won't get the truth out. Remember, what happened in 1898?" I smiled grimly.
Flashback: WPOV
"Wosret, what is Claudia planning?"
"Nothing." I lied. She raised an eyebrow. You could never hide anything from Gabriel.
"Wosret, you're lying."
"No I'm not."
"Yes, you are."
"No."
"Yes."
"No." Then she looked into my eyes. Gaining control of my mind. She rarely used any of her powers but when she did, run for your life.
"Wosret, what is Claudia planning to do?" I couldn't hold back.
"Claudia is planning on surprising you for your birthday."
"Thank you, Wosret." She smiled then broke contact, letting me gain control again. Damn it! Claudia is going to kill now that Bella knows.
END OF FLASHBACK
Wosret nodded slowly. I looked into his eyes, gaining control.
"Wosret, why are you wearing my brooch?"
"The guys wanted to see what you ladies are doing."
"Where are they?"
"They are in the Volvo, that is beside the main road watching."
"Thank you, Wosret." I broke contact. "Oh, yes and boys it will be the devil to pay when you get home. Bye-Bye now." I push the button on the side to turn it off. "Wosret, you can go now." He bowed and left the room.
"Bella, I have to say," Rosalie said, "when you are control of the men, I find that sexy." I rolled my eyes as the rest of the girls giggled.
"Okay, lets get this toture over with."
