Enjoy, no warnings as I want you to discover.

A couple days passed since Marcus apologized to Venus, while Aro still hid for a while. They would sit with each other for a few hours, but neither spoke. Truth be told, this really bothered the box,black haired girl. She missed her somewhat psychotic mate, how he would hold her and purr at night. However, it was not her who needed an apology.

A deep sigh escaped her, as these thoughts plagued her mind. Walking through the corridor of the castle, as she made her way to the private Volturi pool. Her swimsuit draped over her arm, while her thoughts plagued her. "Oh Aro." She whispered to herself, while the smell of chlorine filled her nose as she reached the destination.

Once in her black crop top bikini set, Venus allowed herself to dive into the water. The cold water seemed to make her feel weightless, as she leaned back into the water. Her hair flowed around her, as she floated through the cool embrace of the water. In her peripheral vision, she could see the bluish-green of the chlorinated water around her. It was silent around her, as brown eyes began to close.

This lasted for a few moments, moments that seemed to last for hours as bliss began to set in. That was until three sets of familiar female laughter filled her head, disgust began to fill her as she recognised them instantly. 'They are still alive?' She couldn't help but wonder, before feeling guilt as that thought settled. Having lived with the Cullens for a year, it was understandable.

"Your back?" The voice of Valentina could be heard, just as snotty as ever. Opening her brown eyes, Venus turned to them; not masking the disgust. The three looked as if they were trying out for a porno, with how little their swimsuits covered. Valentina front and center in a dark red string bikini, slivers that were meant to cover the girls breast; really only covering her nipples. Gianna wore something similar but in white, the stop also seemed to fit better as the triangles actually covered her breast. The bottoms were smaller however, telling the younger girl that her butt was probably poking out. Bianca wore a black one piece, with a deep V-neck that stopped at the end of her navel, she was turned slightly so her hip faced Venus. Showing that the bottom half of the bathing suit was a thong type.

"Your still alive?" Venus replied with the question. "I was sure Caius would get tired of listening to your whining Valentina."

The mid-morning vampire snack flared her nostrils in anger, while her dark eyes narrowed. "I thought you were gone for good."

"No, just in a protection plan. Aro, Marcus, and Caius are still my mates, and nothing on this earth will change that." Venus replied simply. She was not the same scared girl from before, and she was certainly not going to let the three wannabes walk all over her.

"Your a liar! They threw you away." Bianca jumped in, her brown eyes narrowed as she walked closer. "Bet you had to whore yourself to them, so they let you come back. After all you never-"

"Bianca, that is not necessary." Gianna spoke calmly, in an almost sickly sweet voice. Venus was still trying to figure out how they were alive, when she felt someone grab her from behind. Her brown eyes went huge, as she looked up to see the three witches watching with smirks on their faces. "After all we will fix this problem, once she is gone then our masters will reward us."

"Michael." Valentina ordered briskly, before the person-Michael Venus presumed forced her head under the water.

The girl struggled instantly, her arms flailed within what had once been a calm serene place, now the water was violent in protest. The man behind her let out a grunt as her legs kicked back, managing to get him in the shin. This just seemed to piss him off more, as her began to choke her as well. The water entered her lungs instantly as she gasped, causing a burning sensation in the back of her throat.

Michael hissed in pain, as her nails managed to leave deep claw like marks in his hand. "Bitch isn't going without a fight." He growled out, before the blunt force of his knee got her in the spine. Pain radiating from her back, as the force of the impact temporarily left her immobile.

Gaping underwater like a fish stuck on land, desperate for air. "A-a-r." She formed a sound, as the mate she had been thinking about came to her mind. Here about to die, pain shot through her heart of how he would react. She knew both Caius and Marcus would be just as devastated, but she had at least rekindle the relationship she had with them. Her thoughts were cut off as a roar entered the sound barrier, just in time for darkness took hold of her vision.

0.o.0

Silk, was the first thing Venus registered when she came to. Her fingers grasped the material gently, figuring she was in either Marcus's or Caius's bed. Eyes opened slowly, expecting to see either color of crimson red or navy blue around her; but that was not the case. The color black greeted her gaze, as she stared at the sheets completely void of color. Brown eyes widened, as only one mate had sheets the color of ebony. Aro.

"Thank the Gods." A voice breathed to her right, turning slowly she saw the owner of the bedroom. His face streaked with venom, as he no doubt had been crying. He moved with his speed, climbing into the bed to pull her close to him. "I thought I lost you."

"Aro, your not losing me." Venus whispered, as she felt the cold tears of venom touching her cheek as he continued to cry. Looking softly up at him slowly to speak once again, he stopped her instantly. As the next thing she knew, he had slammed his lips to hers and nearly knocked all wind from her lungs.

She hardly had a moment to react before he pressed his tongue to the seam of her lips and, at her grant of access, delved inside her mouth. It was a very sloppy kiss nothing like how Aro had kissed her in the past. Demanding, even as she began to meet his tongue with her own.

"I'm sorry." He finally said, when he pulled back.

Venus gazed at him for a moment, before smiling while pulling him closer. His red eyes going wide for just a fraction of a moment. "I'm not." Her lips laying claim to his once again. Unexpectedly, his hand drifted to her hip. It settled there and pulled her closer. She inhaled sharply. She was against his cool chest, chiseled to perfection. Their tongues once again battled for dominance, as his cool fingers traced over the bare skin that her shirt rose up to reveal. Bodies began grinding against each other as if they were possessed, needing as they were. "Aro." She moaned softly.

This was how Caius and Marcus found them, still pressed against one another in a passionate lip lock. "Well, looks like she is okay." The elder vampire spoke.

The blonde nodded, while a smile graced his lips. "We may get to move back to the one bedroom."

"Sounds ideal, brother." Marcus agreed.

I felt that passion as I wrote this, so hope you all did to. Nature Faustus
