Alright, I really hope you all like this one. I didn't know how to start it, not sure what to do with Marcus, or Caius. However I think you may like what I decided, I will have more commentary at the bottom like always. Questions will be asked. Also, I would like to thank everyone for the reviews! Mean I did not expect for this story to be this popular this fast, and I believe we are at 43! That is amazing.
Cullens
"Bella." Alice whispered, as the girl who was her sister looked catatonic. "You know, Aro is coming. He is coming for blood."
"I know, he is going to kill my father...can I call him that?" The human girl whispered, unsure really on how to feel. Knowing her sister was abused, physically, sexually, and emotionally by the man was a lot to take in. "I don't know how to really feel."
"That is understandable." Alice told her simply, before looking down. "I know you are probably angry at us as well."
"I was." Bella replied, "but I know Venus asked you not to say anything. I can imagine you wanted to tell me?"
"Yes." Edward said, from his position beside her. "We wanted to inform you, but Venus feared if you knew..that Charlie would hurt you as well."
Brown eyes began to burn as tears began to weld. "I saw where she wrote that my Da-Charlie said he would kill everyone she loved, if she told anyone."
"At that point, she didn't know us." Emmett said, anger in his golden gaze. "You were all she cared about Bells."
Bella nodded, as she began to cry. Edward wrapping his stone like arms around her. "I just, how could he do that to her?"
"He wanted someone to blame, and instead of turning said blame on himself; he chose Venus." Jasper replied simply, anger coursing through his venom filled veins. He was attacked with the emotion, from everyone in the room; taking all he had not to act.
Alice went rigid. "Aro is coming, he's brought Jane and no one else ...I'm sorry Bella, Charlie won't be alive much longer."
"But, won't that cause suspicion?" Was the question.
Carlisle chose to answer. "The Volturi are very good at making someone disappear." His voice was hard as ice, as he wanted nothing more than to kill the miserable excuse for a man. He trying to reign his beast in, but even the gentlest and kindest Cullen was having difficulty. The daughter, fate had chosen for his soul; was raped. That knowledge rattled his animal within.
"You will stay here." Edward told his mate simply.
"Yeah, even if we wanted to interfere. Which we don't." Rosalie all but spat. "We couldn't, as your sister is our Queen..and our Queen, sister, daughter, and friend has been hurt by this man that claims to be a father."
Bella was silent, again not knowing what to feel. She should be happy that a rapist was about to be killed, but he was her father. Never once had he ever placed a hand on her, but if what the diary said was true; then he could have. The thing that still really bothered her, however, was the fact that her sister was younger. As the older sister, Bella felt as if she should have been the one to protect her; feeling like a failure.
"The pack will have to be told." Carlisle suddenly said. "We don't need them to interfere as well."
"Bella, would you call Jacob?" Esme asked softly, but even the sweetest person in the room. Her voice was hard as ice, just like the others.
The Swan nodded her head, gently pulling out her phone. "Do you want him to just come here?" She asked softly.
"That would be best." Carlisle replied.
Rosalie sighed. "I will get the air freshener ready."
"Rose!" Esme hissed.
"What? He stinks." The blonde replied.
"There are more important things than that, at the moment." Alice replied simply, before she went to focus. "Aro just landed, he may stop here first; but he hasn't decided."
Everyone nodded as Bella began to call Jacob. "If he stops here, won't it be bad if Jake is here?"
"Very, but we will cross that road when it happens." Carlisle replied. "Please continue."
She nodded, before pressing the dial button. It only took about two rings for him to answer. "Jake, how fast can you be at the Cullen's?"
"Uh, why?" His gruff voice asked.
"There is something you need to be told about Charlie, and it isn't good." Bella told him simply.
"Is he okay?" Jacob asked, it was obvious he thought the man was hurt.
"He hurt Venus…." She whispered.
"What!?"
"Just get here!" Bella shouted finally, before hanging up the phone. Another one of her sisters diaries was open on the table. "Will Aro want all of them?"
"Yes." Carlisle replied.
About twenty minutes went by before Jacob could be smelled within the Cullen residence. "What is this about Charlie hurting, little Ve?" He all but demanded.
Bella just handed the diary over. "It's all there, written in her hand writing, we sent one to Volterra already."
The wolf eyed her for a second, having not questions but chose to read a few pages in the book first. "He's the reason she had five fractured ribs, last year?"
"Yeah, also why she was so thin during the fall." Bella added. "That's not all though."
"In her first diary, the one we sent off. It had detailed accounts of multiple sexual assaults." Carlisle told him, and Jake's dark eyes went huge. "We sent them, because her mates had a right to know. That is where she is now."
"Mates?" He asked.
"It's like an imprint." Bella replied.
Carlisle nodded. "Venus is Vampire royalty now, as she is mated to the closest thing to a royal family that we have. With that said, one king has landed in Forks. He is here for justice for his mate."
Jacob picked up on that instantly. "You mean to kill Charlie?"
"He will probably take him back to Volterra first, so that Charlie understands the gravity of his mistakes." Carlisle answered.
The Alpha male nodded, before a thought registered. 'What do they want me to do?'
"Nothing." Edward stated. "We were just informing you, so the pack knows this isn't on us. Charlie brought this upon himself."
"To rape a child, he's lucky I don't kill him." Rosalie hissed, gaining a surprised look. "He started raping her when she was thirteen, if you think that man deserves sympathy you can forget it."
Jacob looked conflicted, this was a man who he had known his whole life. His father Billy, knew him for thirty years. However, no amount of time could forgive Charlie for placing his hands on his daughter. But, that didn't mean the pack would be happy. "I need to take this with me, so the pack knows not to attack."
"Thank you." Bella whispered, just as conflicted as Jacob.

Volturi (Aro)
Aro felt his plane touchdown in Port Angeles, before he was out with Jane by his side. "My dear, we will grab the filth and take him back to Volterra." He ordered simply.
"Do you think the Cullens will try to stop us?" Jane asked softly.
"I doubt they would have sent me the diary if that was the case." Aro replied, looking to his most prized guard.
"What of the wolves?" Jane asked, Venus having told her about them. Which caused her Master to whip his head towards her for an explanation. "Jacob Black is a shifter, not the same as a child of the moon, but they protect the people of Forks."
"Was he a friend of my Mate's?" He asked.
"Yes." She replied.
Aro took a breath. "If that is the case, then if he stands with her rapist...he is as guilty as the filth."
Jane nodded her head, as they began moving straight to the Swan residence. The house was nothing of what they thought it would be, and by the sight they could see that the police cruiser wasn't there, just a rusty orange truck. "Isabella, has no taste."
"I couldn't agree more." Aro replied, before they entered through what they guessed was Isabella's open window. The scent of Venus could still be detected, but it was stale. Still the leader of the Volturi Coven breathed in her scent, trying to calm his nerves; until something else came to him. A growl escaped, as he sniffed what he knew to be her bedding area. That was where he found, dried fluid, heavy of testosterone. "He will die, but first he must be punished."
"Aro?" A voice asked, making both members of the Volturi turn and look, the scent and sight of Alice greeting them. "I'm not here to stop you, here to give you the rest of her diaries."
"There are more?" Aro demanded.
"Yes." Alice replied, before she looked down. "Here he comes."
The Volturi looked out the window, to see the police car, and a tall man who looked a lot like Bella step out. "Yeah, Bella is at the Cullen's tonight." They heard him talking on the phone. "Venus? Bella mentioned she was studying abroad, that's all I know."
Aro growled at the mention of his mate, but what irked the vampires, was he adjusted his manhood; while saying her name.
"I know I did not just see that." Alice questioned, looking to them.
Jane looked to Aro, who simply nodded.
Venus
Venus was worried, she hadn't seen Aro or Caius all morning. She was thankful to have Marcus by her side however. "Have you seen them?"
"No, but they are processing the information." He told her calmly, kissing her head.
"Marcus, I just want it over." She told him, and he nodded his head in understanding. "I don't want to think about it, I don't want to see him, even though at some point I will need the closure."
Marcus seemed to think about that, he noted his overly excited brothers absence. Caius was in his art studio, and by the sound of all the crashing. It was destroyed. "I know where Caius is." He finally said.
"You do?" She asked.
"He is in his studio, but I ask that you stay with me for a bit; so he may calm down." Venus nodded her head slowly, but he could see the need in her eyes and he smiled. "You feel the urge to comfort him?"
"Yeah." She whispered. "But, I understand that you are worried about his anger right now."
"Please know, I doubt he would hurt you; but he is unstable." Marcus told her.
Venus nodded again, but that just caused her to honestly want to go to him more. "What do you want to know?" She asked.
"I want to get to know my Mate, I know of your hardships, but I want to know your joys as well." Marcus replied.
"Such as?" She asked.
He thought for a moment. "What did you want to be after school and what not?"
She blushed brightly. "I had two things, I kept bouncing between."
"Oh?" He asked.
"Marine Biologist, or a Paleontologist." She replied. "I love the fact that I could combine them. "Study the life of the Ocean, to figure out more of its past."
"That is rather interesting, do you have any particular animal that made you fascinated with the sea?" Marcus asked, glad to see her smiling again.
"Sharks." She replied, with a laugh.
His beautiful red eyes widened with surprise. "Really?" He asked.
"Yeah, I just have always hated how a large majority of the world sees them. They aren't mindless killing machines, they are just what they are." Venus whispered, and they continued speaking like this for a while longer.
Marcus smiled at her passion, and with her being so young planned to help her achieve her dream job. His brothers and himself were in their late twenties early thirties, he saw nothing wrong with her studying the sea for a few years. "Would you like to see Caius now?" He asked.
She nodded instantly, and they moved to his brothers studio. Venus had never been inside until now, but as Marcus knocked on the door gently; she heard him.
"Go away!" His voice of pain and anger could be heard.
"Caius." Venus whispered, "please let me in."
"I don't want you to see me like this." He replied, she turned to Marcus who motioned to the door; before he left.
Turning back to try to handle, she was surprised to find it unlocked. Taking a deep breath, she entered the famed studio; to find it trashed. Paint all over the walls and floor, canvases ripped to shreds, brushes and pencils alike shattered like glass. Her eyes found him in the corner, paint covered him as he was shirtless. "Caius." She whispered again, as she moved right to his side.
"I told you to go." He replied, feeling as his mate wrapped her arms around him. "I didn't want you to see the destruction of the beast within can make me do."
"Caius, I am not leaving your side." Venus whispered, feeling as the paint began to seep through her clothes.
"I ruined everything." He whispered, his red eyes looking to his studio. "I couldn't stop myself."
Her brown eyes looked around, before turning back to the blonde. "We can rebuild, together." She told him, instantly his eyes were on hers. "We are partners in this world after all."
He smiled slightly at that. "This doesn't bother you?"
"No, I love you way to much, to even let it." She replied, before they both froze.
"You love me?" He asked.
Venus was quiet for a moment, before she nodded. "I love you." She said it again, tears coming to her eyes as his arms wrapped around her. "I am staying right by your side, I promise."
Alright, some may wanted to read about blood. I promise that will be coming, but all the guard and both Caius and Marcus deserve a crack at him as well. Besides Venus does need to face him one last time, to prove he won't ever hurt her again. Now, I had Marcus be her rock to distract them both..because she needs a rock in the relationship..and I think he is perfect for that.
Aro is as you can see her protector, I know many probably saw Caius being this. However, with how Aro is to everyone. He is the extreme one out of the three, fun and outgoing, but absolutely deadly when crossed. How can you cross him more, than by hurting his mate?
Caius is the first one for her to fall for, I know many will wonder..what the fuck they were sure it would be Aro! But, no. Don't worry he isn't far behind, and she loves her dark haired devil; but not ready to say it. She knew Caius needed to be the one told first. He is the one that is the most unstable, and felt ashamed that his beast could be seen by his mate in such a way. That I felt it was the perfect opportunity.
Now with that all said, can we get 50 reviews..with this lucky question. How did you all feel about Carlisle fighting with his own Beast in this chapter?
