The days passed on rather quickly, according to Angela. I had spent most days wandering the halls or in the library. Whenever I was around the queens we did this dance, they tried to get more out of me and I gave them short answers. It was peaceful, while it lasted that is. Soon it was the trail day, and I was not excited. I don't know if it was the fact that I would be seeing the Cullens again, or the fact that I was starting to like it here. I knew that Edward would try and get me back. It's just the kind of person he was. Unless. No. It just wouldn't happen. 'He probably fell for someone better than you.' Had he moved on? Did they all move on? I didn't want to think about it, but I couldn't help it. So when Sulpicia came to get me out of my room, I was shaking. Apparently enough so that she put her had to put her arm around her waist to keep me from falling. It was comforting to say the least but I didn't really want to be next to her at the moment. I was about to see my ex-boyfriend and the family that left me and she was messing with my emotions, as well as the other queens.
Sighing I decided to stay quiet and just let her lead me. It took us a whole two minutes to get there but it felt like eternity. As we made our way into the room I decided to keep my eyes to a floor I couldn't stand to look at them, my former family. I guess I was still shaken up on the fact that they have left me not even a year ago. I just wanted this whole ordeal to be over and for me and Angela to leave this place and go back to our normal lives. But I knew that wouldn't happen Angela was mated to Jane and I knew something I shouldn't. Sulpicia took my hand and let me to the middle throne. There she had me sit down and watch. On my right with Angela, standing tall and proud like always. On my left was Jane, face stoic not showing any emotion. Before Sulpicia could even utter a word I looked up my former family and took in their faces. There was shock, and sadness, some laced with fear. But Edward, oh Edward, his face was cocky, too cocky. It was as if he was planning something impossible. And knowing him, he probably was. Sighing I sat patiently as Didyme walked to stand next to her mate resting a hand on her mates shoulder. I leaned forward a bit to listen in. A mistake on my part as everyone's eyes snapped to me. I awkwardly looked away from everyone, shifting back into the chair. I decided to just lean back and stare at the floor. Sulpicia decided this was the moment to start talking. I didn't want to listen but I couldn't help it. I wanted to hear their side of the story. After almost Two years. Rolling my neck slightly I could hear the bones crack in a soothing rhythm.
"Cullens welcome, you've been very, troubling lately no?" I didn't didn't have to be smart to realize that the queen was running out of sympathy.
It was like everything they were and everything they had been was fake and a lie. And too think they had packed up and moved on. It was kind of fitting. The picture perfect family with a shitty reality. The reality was sinking in clearly. I was nothing to them and they were nothing to me.
"My Queens please, let us discuss this." Carlisle's plea almost sounded genuine if it weren't for the smile on his face.
"There is nothing to discuss. You broke the law. The only reason you are not dead right where you stand is some of you have been wonderful spies." Athenodora was powerful.
"Spies? Who could possibly?" I watched Carlisle closely.
Nothing shocked him. He knew. He knew everything and never spoke a word. It seemed like the other queens knew as well. Athenodora moved to stand up next to her mates placing a hand on Sulpicia's shoulder. Together they seemed more intimidating, standing closer together. Before my mind could register what was happening my body was moving. I had to be by them, I wanted to be by them. No one seemed to notice that I moved, and if they did they were too engrossed in the conversation that was happening. It wasn't until I tugged on Sulpicia's robe that everyone seemed to notice that I was now standing behind the Queen's. Shuffling my feet as they turned around to face me I let go of the tall Queen's robe and shuffled between her and Athenodora. The three queens seemed to relax some as I leaned into Athenodora's body. And then Didyme speaks.
"The Cullen Clan is no more. Rosalie, Emmett you have been useful, thank you. Jasper thank you as well. Everyone may leave. The Cullen Clan is not aloud to reform for 100 years."
Arguments broke out soon after the news. Most of them mainly from Edward and Carlisle. It seemed more that the Cullen's were arguing with each other.
"ENOUGH!" Sulpicia's voice rung out loud and clear, "be happy we did not kill you, now LEAVE."
And just like that everyone was cleared out, even Angela and Jane. It was a few more moment before I backed away from the three Queen's. I still didn't want to be in a relationship with them, my heart still hurt. I was scared they would do the same thing the Cullen's did. The more logical part of my brain knew they wouldn't but I was still terrified. Sighing softly I gazed at the three in front of me. I was too exhausted for words so I held out my arms. Didyme was the first to react by lifting me up. As she moved back to my room the other two followed close behind. Closing my eyes I smiled and let the sleep consume me.
A/N: I re-wrote the ending half of this chapter. I didn't like where it went. Sorry about that. The next chapter will hopefully be up soon if all goes well. Thank you for supporting me.
