Somewhere on a 10.0000-mile Hunting reserve Lilly, Tanya and stood, and Lilly said, "Can you smell them Bella, the stinky musky smell Lilly said!"

Smiling Tanya told her, "Let it full your senses, were just downwind of them!" Just before she took off.

"Bella" Lilly said, "Close your eyes, and think about seeing in the dark!"

As Bella opened her eyes, off in the distance she saw a myriad of reddish orange light suddenly Bella's skin started turning shades of black and grey.

"Not to worry, it makes hunting easier." Lilly said as she ran off with Bella not far behind.

Bella watches as Lilly moves with blinding speed, biting a 13-point buck taking it down. Both Bella and Tanya had the same thought, why did she bring the carcass back?

"Because" Lilly said grinning a bloody smile, "I may not use the meat, but there are needy family's that could!"

Kissing Bella, Tanya said, "Lets bag a big one!" as they ran off.

45 minutes later Bella came back with one over her shoulder and Tanya came back with 2 saying, "First and second kill!"

Hauling them back to the butchering area Lilly said, "Jean… do make sure these get to needy families and shelters."

"We will be here for the weekend; I'll pay double your rate!" Lilly told him.

Noon the following day Lilly said, "We Know you can hunt by night, but can you hunt in day light."

Turning her skin to her Greyish black form Lilly said, "Watch!"

She started stealthily moving from shadow, to shadow getting closer to the herd as she went.

Dam, she's graceful, Bella thought.

"Follow me love" Tanya, ran off following the same pattern as Lilly with Bella close behind, and watching Tanya move Bella thought she's gracefully Hot…

"Thank you love!" Tanya said, running after a buck!

At the same moment at an undisclosed area Drake stood in an open area looking at his to enemies and said, "This really isn't fair!"

Caius states, "Agreed you may surrender now if you wish."

Drake himself was a perfect specimen at the peak of physical conditioning, removing his sword He said, "You miss understand me Caius, I mean I really won't find this battle satisfying!"

In a calm tone Drake said, "Caius, Caius, Caius, no one will be coming to your aid today… you must get blood on your hands today, you must fight on your own..."

Leveling his gaze on Caius, Drake said, "Today you will learn what being ruthless truly means!"

Caius ground his teeth only to have Drake say, "Carful or your teeth with crack."

His reflexes hones by eons of endless battle Drake stalked him.

Caius's brow shot up in a speculative arch as Drake said, "It will be over all to soon."

Marcus tried reading Drake only to discover a level of calm malevolence that was off the charts!

Drake himself moves with such speed that when Caius went to attack, he found himself attacking Drakes After Image.

There was a rapid-fire series of pops, snaps and cracks that filled the air.

"The Volturi have become far to civilized!" Drake said tossing the head of Marcus at Caius's feet, saying, "You have forgotten what it means to be Vampire!"

Crunch… "Good you're not a screamer!" Drake said in a calm, cold voice telling Caius, "That was one you still have 205 bones left to brake."

"Did you forget I'm a vampire!" Caius snidely states.

"No… However, I am the only source of blood for 5000 miles!" With a rustles gleeful undertone Drake said, "It's also the most toxic venom known to man!"

So even if I drink his blood… I die! Caius thought.

"Your assuming I'm going to let you!" Drake offered baring his fangs.

Back at the Hunting Reserve Bella said, "You're the fastest Vampire I've ever seen Lilly!"

"Hay what about me" Tanya said objecting.

"You are the most sensual women I've ever met, human or Vampire!" Bella said Kissing her bride/mate.

Giving Bella and Tanya a wink Lilly said, "That wasn't even close to my top speed.

"Meaning!" Bella asked

"Meaning, I can move with the speed of a Shooting Star Bella!"

"160,000 mph" Tanya said softly, as Bella stared mouth agape looking at Lilly!

Back at the undisclosed area Drake hit Caius again saying "100!"

Caius himself couldn't move every bone in his legs were broken multiple times as the brake themselves were coming so fast his vampire healing ability couldn't keep up, he himself was in excruciating pain.

Through a broken jaw Caius said, "P-Please L-Let M-Me D-Die!"

"Haven't you figured it out by now boy… I have no intention of killing you, I am going to leave you a broken man with nothing, I am going to leave you in agony."

Back at the Hunting Reserve Bella remembers Something!

"SHIT" Bella mutters, then looks contrite saying, "Sorry, But I just realized bereavement leave ends tomorrow!"

Grinning like the cat that ate the canary Lilly said, "I have an idea I wanted to run past you Bella."

Looking at Lilly, Bella asked, "What did you have in mind!"

Handing Bella, a piece of paper Bella reads it and at the very top it she reads:

Study Abroad

"This way your wife can show you her homeland and you still get your senior year!" Lilly said softly.

"That's Genius" Bella said, "I have one request!"

Bella whispers, "Teach me Slavic!" In Tanya ear.

"The The Volturi are no more!" Drake said walking in, as Lilly said, "You recreated it."

"Recreated what?" Bella asked.

"Târgoviște!" was all Drake said and that one word made Tanya's back stiffen.

Bella reaction was one of concern because Bella knew nothing shocked her mate Ever.

"It's not something we talk about in polite company Bella." was all Tanya said somberly as she flashed a weak smile.

"I think what your mate is trying to avoid saying is, what was done was extremely brutal even by 14th century standards." Drake said, "However in the end, the Turks lost their taste for conquest and went home!"

"As vicious and ruthless as Caius was compared to me, he was a…. what's the term you would use." Drake pondered

"A Schoolyard bully…" Belly offered looking at him

"You know Môj Milovaný, between the three of we have lived through most if not all of human existence!"

"You want to homeschool me!" Bella started staring at her.

Lilly Explained, "It's going to be a few months to get a handle on your bloodlust!"

"What does Môj Milovaný, mean!" Bella asked!

"It means My Beloved!"

"Say it again, in Slovak!" Bella asked

"Si môj milovaný!" Tanya said softly

"How do I say, I am your Beloved" Bella asks Tanya softly.

"Som tvoj Milovaný" Tanya told her

Consciously Bella said "Som tvoj Milovaný!" reverently.

"Yes, you are." Reading Bella's hesitation Tanya said, "Gently Milovaný"

In the back of her mind Bella heard Lilly's voice, just enough to fill the mouth!

Tentatively Bella bit down hearing Tanya sigh almost moan in pleasure.

Tanya bit down on Bella's trapezius drinking just enough to fill the mouth.

"Why am I having visions of a child being thrown on I fire!" Was the first thing Bella asked!

"Part of my past Milovaný!" Tanya said softly, "Part of my past!"

Trough the Mating bond Tanya heard Bella think, I will never get tired of hearing môj milovaný!

Bella heard Tanya's Response; I will never tire of saying it!

"You want to see your father's grave!" Tanya asked.

Bella nodded...
