Aro POV

It is difficult for me to see what my mate has had to deal with her whole life. Not having parents that care for you like they should is unacceptable to me. The only thing I am thankful to them for is that they gave me my mate. Who is such a strong compassionate woman.

As long as I am around she will never have to feel unwanted ever again, I will make sure of that. She has already won over Caius who I thought would be the most difficult person to get along with my mate and accept her, but he is already wrapped around her little finger and she doesn't even know it.

As we are driving to the Major's home I can't help but stare at my beautiful mate. When she feels my eyes on her she looks at me and blushes. Oh how I will miss that when she is turned.

"You are so beautiful Cara, never doubt that." I stroke her cheek.

"Thank you Aro, but I know I am plain. I don't know how I could live up to the women you've been around." She looks down at her hands. The fact that she thinks that she is plain angers me. I can't help the growl that escapes my lips causing her to look up at me wide eyed.

"I am sorry to scare you my beloved but you are no where near plain, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on, both inside and out. I will not having my mate say such things about herself any longer. I don't know who made you believe that you were just plain, but I will rectify that."

I lean in to kiss her not able to hold back any longer. Her eyes close slowly as she leans in to meet me half way. The moment my lips touch hers I am in bliss. Her lips are so soft. I glide my tongue along her lips causing her to gasp. I use this as my opportunity to finally taste my mate. I glide my tongue across hers relishing in the taste of my mate. She is like nothing I have ever tasted before. When I feel my needs air I pull away stroking her cheek.

"Wow," that's all she can say causing me to chuckle.

"Yes my beloved aptly put, that was definitely something I have never experienced before." She looks down at her hands again.

"I have never been kissed like that before." I can tell she is embarrassed by this information.

"Cara, you don't know how happy it makes me to know that I am the first man to ever kiss you like that. If you will allow me I will show you many things that you have never experienced before."

She looks in my eyes studying me. When she finds the answer she is looking for she is kissing me again. I growl in response pulling her in my lap needing her close to me. I can feel myself already getting aroused. The things she does to me.

Before we can go any further we are pulling up to the Majors house.

"My beloved I hate to stop this, but we are here and I don't think you want your brother coming out and finding us like this."

This causes her to blush again and climb out of my lap. Before she can exit the car though I take her hand kissing it.

"We will continue this another time I swear it." She just nods back to me and opens the door. I grab her luggage and walk up to the Majors house. Bella is in awe. It is a simple looking wood cabin. But of course us vampires do not do anything small. It is at least two stories with who knows how many rooms.

We make our way to the door but before Bella can open it the Major at the door pulling her into his arms. I can see the love he has for her.

"You feelin any better darlin."

"Yeah I'm good Jasper. Just happy that I am starting my new life with all of you."

He kisses her forehead and pulls her into the house. Everyone is in the living room waiting for us. Bella goes around hugging everyone. I look around at the group of people in this room admiring how many people care for my mate.

"Why don't I give you a tour darlin' and show you to your room?"

"Sounds great." She walks up to me kissing my cheek leaving the room with her brother.

I look around and everyone is just smirking at me.

"What my I ask is so amusing?"

Caius is the one to speak.

"Get close to your dear mate did you brother." If I could blush I swear I would've.

"I did, and if any of you pick on her about it I will torture you myself."

They all go wide eyed and just nods their heads.

"Good glad that is settled."

"Aro, be careful with her. We can all see the damage that was done to her over the years. She has insecurities though she is good at hiding it." Marcus is the one to address this while everyone else voices their agreement.

Paul speaks to everyone. "She was getting better after Gayward left. I think seeing him and the shit Charlie just pulled is bringing it all up again. Don't hurt my sister or I will kill you." I just stare at the young man I look to everyone. All of the pack is nodding in agreement.

"You will have to get in line shifter." It was Caius who spoke surprising me.

My mate and the Major walk back into the room. Bella happily walks up to me hugging me.

"You should see this place Aro, it is amazing. My room is huge and I have my own bathroom I have never had my own bathroom before." I try to hide my surprise at this information. I can hear the vampires in the room growling too lowly for Bella to hear.

"That is great my beloved you will have to show me later. Now I think we should discuss what our next move will be, don't you agree?"

"Yes, let's discuss our plans for the next week before we leave for Volterra."

I can see how excited she is. I will give my mate anything she asks for.
