ARO'S P.O.V

When I finally got time to rest, I walked to my bed and fell on it and dosed off. When I did, I started to breathe in her scent, and remember her. Her smile and voice, how graceful her hair bounced on her shoulders and the way her body swayed whenever she spins. She loved dancing and reading, spend time with her dear Athenodora who she loves as a sister. Those nights when we made love and held each other close, she wasn't my mate but we loved each other as if we were one. Her wisdom and beauty made her all the most wonderful soul. I loved her very much and wouldn't trade her for anything in the world.

That was before her death. When a child of the moon kidnapped her and took her to their spawning where she was tortured and given a poison that would kill anything on earth once applied to. I remembered how I found her, tied to the ceiling in their dungeons with heavy chains too strong for a vampire to break and ropes to rip. Limbs ripped from her back, chest, hands, feet, and stomach. They left scratches and semen on her legs and groan. Her face when he touched her was in complete horror, pain, agony, and sorrow. She was dying and there was nothing I could do to save her from death's grasp. Then she spoke to me one last time, the last words she said. I love you, Aro, please remember me. When your dreams had ended, time can be, horrible, I will always wait for you. Remember, me.

I cried out loud, on top of my lungs. I couldn't stop remembering her or the way she die. Neither her last words. I cried and shouted with all my might. When I had no more to cry, my mouth hurt and felt very weak. I curled upon my bed that I had shared with her.

Then I heard footsteps running to fast and then my sister burst in to hold me into her chest. I hugged her back as she was my last hope. Marcus came behind her and took me from her to embrace me and kiss my head.

"I think he should sleep in our bed Didyme, he has too much memories of Sulpicia here." He was right. I know my brother as much as he knew me. I pressed my face in his chest as he grip me tighter.

"I agree." I faintly heard Didyme say.

"What happened?! Where's Aro?! I want to see him!" Caius was always the one to make demands more than orders.

When Marcus turned us and showed him that I was clinging onto him for dear life, he fast walked and grabbed me. He spun me around to wipe the tears, dry and wet from my face. Then he kissed me and hugged me tightly.

"I'll look after him, you and Didyme go and make out for the lost time you have." He offered.

"But aren't you and Athenodora going to spent time alone?" Didyme asked.

"You need it more than we do. Besides, Athenodora wouldn't shut up about Aro's well being, so I think by having him with us, she will be more calmed." He said.

"Of course brother, thank you so much." Marcus said. I pouted because Marcus isn't putting up a fight for me and is spending time with my sister making everyone chuckle at my childish behavior. "Now, now Aro. You be good to Caius or I'll have to spank you." I dropped my jaw at his words, how dare he!

"Well, you two have fun, Athenodora and I will take good care of him." Caius picked me up and wrap my legs around his waist.

"Ca-Caius. You know, you don't really need to carry me. I can walk." I blushed. Seeing some of the guards looking at us.

"Nonsense brother, I could carry you even if you were a vampire. So then." He carries me on the way to his room. All the guards stopped their duties to see me being carried by Caius. I swear that my face was so deep red, darker than the blood.

When we got to his room, Athenodora cried out and ran to me grabbing me off from Caius.

"Careful love, he's human." Caius warns his wife.

She held me close to her bosoms and gently sways me.

"Um, Athena, I'm not a baby to sway. Please, put me down." Athenodora complied and let me stand.

"Oh Aro, you frighten us, we thought that you were going to die."

"Peace with you my dear. I am fine." I say to her.

She turned to Caius and he nodded.

"Aro, why won't you take a rest? The journey must of been exhausting for you." She said with loveliness.

I nodded and went onto their bed and slumped down with heavy eyes. My brother rubbed my back and my sister spoke an old tale from our ancient times.

Soon I fell asleep.

Walking among the fields in the territories of the Irish coven, Siobhan was telling my brothers about the strangers that had been visiting them asking about someone who they don't bother telling me even if I once was the leader of the coven. Getting sick of being pushed to the side, I finally decide to go and have a walk through the night.

The stars were as beautiful as ever I could imaged, the cold breeze blew into my body and face giving me such calming sense. The grass was wet from what I am hearing squishing of earth and water. Then a strange path caught my attention. We had pass this way but this stoneway was never here in the first place.

Following the strange path, I came across a dark, empty, land.

Then he was there, my beautiful stranger from my dreams, he walked towards me and we embraced each other. Then he began to kiss me, from my mouth to my neck, shoulders, chest. As he undressed me, his magic dissolved all his clothing. My body was on fire and I felt electricity from my head to my toes.

"Aro," he said," Aro you are mine and mine only." He sucked and bit my neck and shoulders. I was aroused by his affection towards me, he lifted us with his magic in the air. He held me tight, I could feel his heart beating among with mine.

Then with a swift movement, he thrust into me, I cried not of pain but of the immense pleasure that invaded my body. He took me of my half virginity! Why would he?

We were making love in the air, I held onto his shoulders as he held onto me while he was ravishing me profusely. I couldn't take it anymore, the pleasure was too much. I screamed my lungs out, he went into me harder, deeper, and faster. I begged him not to stop for it felt so good but it was so wrong! Then he came and I came right after. My throat was so sore from screaming, strength was leaving my body and I was so exhausted, I closed my eyes.

When I woke up, I found out my clothes were still on me and that my beautiful stranger was nowhere to be found. I was sadden, it was just an illusion.

Then I heard my brothers, Demetri, and Jane calling for me. I tried to shout for them but my throat wouldn't respond to my mind's command. So it wasn't an illusion or it was real?

"Master!" Jane was the first to find me. "Master Marcus! Master Caius! I found him!" Jane helped me up as the others ran to where we were.

"Aro! For the hell, you got us worried, where were you? Brother don't you do that ever again!" Caius embraced me. Marcus rubbed my back and felt cold shivers go down my spine.

"Aro don't do that again, you got us thinking that we were going to lose you again my brother. Don't you ever scare us like this again alright." Marcus cooed me.

"Alright, alright, from now on I'll not wander from you. I'll stay where you are just don't ever treat me like a child." I said getting out of the touching and the cuddles.

"You are a child Aro, compare to us, we are older than you." Caius said and Marcus chuckled.

I said nothing back I just stick my tongue out to him.
