Hello everyone! How are you? Bella and Jasper finally arrived! Yay! [I have no beta, so all errors are mine, as always :)] ENJOY!

P.S. I am also planning to start another fanfic, I will probaly write both simultaneously. Don't worry, though. I finish everything I start! Stay updated for more news!

Also, if you like Felix (who doesn't?), you can check my other Twilight fanfic!


ARO POV

I am elated. Heidi contacted me from the airport and said that they had just landed, with Bella and Major Whitlock in tow. Admittedly, I am not very elated for Heidi's return—she is such a shallow and unpleasant creature—but I am most certainly looking forward to seeing Bella again, and to finally meet the infamous Major Whitlock.

I requested for a limo to drive them here from the airport, and I can see the same limousine returning as instructed. I clap my hands and my mate smiles. "What has you so cheerful, my love?" she asks. I turn to her, "They are arriving fast! Me and my brothers must go welcome them at once!" I say, and before she can utter another word I blur outside our chambers and I cross roads with my brothers, who are also going to the throne room.

Caius sighs, "I assume that they are arriving now?" he says, and I nod smiling. "Yes, we must go meet them. Is everything prepared?" I ask. Marcus nods, his bored expression strangely absent in favour of one of mild interest, and says "Yes, everything is as we ordered. Their suits are ready, and we hired a cook that will provide Isabella's meals."

"Marvellous! Shall we convey to the throne room?" I ask my brothers, and we all put on our best black and jewelled robes and traipse to the throne room.

A few minutes after we sit down in our respective thrones, we hear a heartbeat approaching fast. Since Demetri claimed Gianna not more than 40 hours ago, and she was still recovering from the hard punishment he inflicted upon her—she probably fainted, the reason why she is no more crying in pain, begging us to help her. That vile witch. She doesn't know that I and a few trusted guards know she tried to seduce Marcus (failing miserably) and force her way to the top of the vampire ruling council—which is why her death is so cruel, and will take a few days to come.

I shake myself from these amusing yet bad-timed thoughts as I hear Bella's heartbeat just outside our throne room. At the edge of my vision I see Demetri slip into the throne room, freshly cleaned and with blazing red eyes—courtesy of our ex-secretary—and I smirk at him just as the massive door to the throne room open.


DEMETRI POV

Ah. Just in time. Gianna's blood is not the best but I didn't want to meet with Bella again while I was hungry. Her scent is tantalizing even when I am sated, no need to risk it. I rearrange my clothes just as the wooden doors open. Despite enjoying the torture I am inflicting on Gianna I wanted to be here when Bella came back. She intrigues me.

Heidi comes in first—I inwardly grimace, that woman is terrible. A good fuck, but not worth any more than that—strutting in as if she owns the place. I often wonder why Aro doesn't kill her.

Then comes Felix. He is flanked by Major Jasper Whitlock, and my spine tightens. His body is the proof of what he suffered—and survived. He is covered in scars that speak of a thousand battles, every bite mark is the proof that many tried to kill him, and no one succeeded. I had never met him before, but now I can see why he's called the God of War. No one would ever be capable of killing him.

My attention is torn from Major Whitlock as Bella comes into the room, looking everywhere—as if she wants to study every little detail. Or, at least, I think she is Bella. My doubts remain until her delicious and unmistakable scent comes drifting into my nose.

Fuuuuck.

It's even more mouth-watering than before! I didn't even think that could have been possible! Well, I guess it's a good thing I fed before coming here.

Bella is so different! Are humans supposed to grow so much in such a short time? I can see every little detail of her figure as she is wearing a skin-tight wine coloured dress. Her hair is longer, now reaching past her perfectly toned butt, her stomach is flat and her breasts… Gods above, her breasts…

Suddenly a feral snarl rips my attention away from Bella's striking figure.

Every head turns to Major Whitlock, for it was him who snarled. He is looking at every male in the room—except for the Masters and Felix—and snarling. Then, in a voice too low for Bella to hear he hissed, "Stop fucking lusting after Bella."

Oh, that explained that. Every male in the room averted their eyes from Bella, while Felix just sniggered.

"What's so funny? And why was Jazz snarling?" Bella suddenly intervened in the conversation, not having heard anything. Nobody answered, and all was silent for a second, until Aro took the reins of the situation.

"Ah, dear Bella, nothing is wrong! Everyone is just so extremely happy to see you again!" he chirped.

"Thanks, I guess" she answered, blushing lightly.

"My dear children," Aro said, walking off the dais to stand in front of Bella and Major Whitlock, "I am so happy that you accepted to aid us! Your help will be invaluable!"

CAIUS POV

The human is different. Before she was a child, now she is a woman. Even her scent is different, more powerful.

I still don't see her usefulness in this situation, but I have no choice but to follow the path that is laid in front of me. I pray to Pluto that she won't be an hindrance during this mission.

I speak after Aro has successfully managed to distract the human. "Your suites are ready, they are adjoining. Alec and Jane will accompany you" I wave a hand to dismiss them. I see Aro shooting me a glare. He quickly adds, "We hope that your stay here will be pleasurable. You won't stay here for long, unfortunately, but I hope you'll find yourselves as comfortable as possible. If you have any questions you can ask a member of the guard. I trust they will be able to answer you, and if not, the issue will be immediately brought to us."

He smiles, and the human hesitantly answers with a small smile of her own. Major Whitlock is still occupied with glaring at every male in the room. "Thank you, Aro" she answers, then she appears to remember something. She adds, "When will we be informed about the details of the mission?"

"This evening, me and my brothers will converge in your suite, sweet Isabella, and discuss everything" Marcus says. It is actually a surprise when he speaks. I believe half the guard is stunned right now. The human nods, it seems she will be the voice of the duo for now. "Very well. We thank you for your hospitality" she bows her head a bit, not submissively but with respect. I smirk a bit at that. She is human, inferior to us, weak and mortal, and yet she does not submit.

As she and the Major are led away to their suites by Jane and Alec, I smirk.

This might prove to be interesting, after all.


JASPER POV

As we walk toward our suites I cannot stop myself from cursin' in my mind. I could still feel all the lust from the throne room.

If these fuckers don't stop lustin' after Bella, I swear to the Holy Father…

As soon as we had entered the throne room, and the males had set their eyes on Bella, I was hit with a fuck-ton of lust and desire. I almost shot my load then and there. But I could control the General, I was a big boy.

We follow Alec and Jane toward the east wing of the castle, usually where the Elite Guard resides. Dependin' on your rank you get to stay near or far the Masters. Personally I cannot care less about where they place us, as long as Bella is comfortable.

I check the emotions of Jane and Alec to pass the time. Jane is feeling extremely jealous—why tho?—and Alec is a mix of friendliness, respect and a bit of lust. I try to fight off a growl.

Bella is walking beside me, while Alec and Jane are ahead of us. Soon we arrive to our destination, and we stop. Alec speaks up, while his sister looks at Bella with a bit of disgust and a fuck-ton of jealousy. The girl needs to stop this shit or I'll crush her. She might be able to fry my brain with her pain, but I can damn well return that same pain to her tenfold.

"Miss Bella, you suite is this way" he points to a dark-oak door with beautiful flowers carved on the surface, "And Major Whitlock, your is this one, right beside hers" he points to another door that looks the same as the other one except for the carvings. Mine is with forest trees. Alec then smiles. "The luggage you brought with you is already in there. This evening the Masters will make all the necessary arrangements to provide you with everything you might need."

"Thank you, Alec" Bella smiles, and that causes a rise in desire in Alec, and a shot of hate from Jane. This fuckin' bitch is gonna make me lose my religion.

"You are more than welcome. Oh, and Miss Bella? Your suite has a kitchen in it. You and Major Whitlock will be able to reach on another through the balcony, since they are united. Remember that the Masters will come to you this evening, probably when the sun sets. Have a good afternoon."

As they leave, both me and Bella step into her room.

She gasps, "Holy hell this room is beautiful!"


Jane is kind of a bitch. Alec is a cutie. The brothers all secretly love Bella, they just don't know it yet :)
