"I have just about had enough of you," my hands were tightening around her throat.
Aro backed away and I took it as a sign that he didn't object to what Jane was entitled too, she had this coming for a long time, she had tried to hurt my family and from the first time I saw her, I had a concern of that she could do, now it was her turn to fear me. My fingers were tightening around her neck as my fingers were digging into her flesh giving way to them with ease, he eyes were still focused on Edward and she refused to break her concentration, enough was enough.
I growled furiously as I lunged for her neck, sinking my teeth as deep as I could, the venom had pooled in my mouth and I found my release with Jane, I put enough venom into her system to paralyze her, but not kill her, I wanted her to make sure she saw death coming when it was time. Almost instantly I heard Edward give a pleasing sigh meaning she couldn't hurt him anymore, Valentino and Joel were still holding her up and once they saw the furry in my eyes they released her, letting my hand around her throat be her only saving grace from falling uselessly to the floor. I had never realized before how strong I was until this moment, I was able to control myself from ripping her to shreds, yet I still inflicted enough damage to mean something, Jane's eyes were filled with fear and I delighted in them.
"See you just made a huge mistake Jane," I said slightly giving an irritated chuckle. "I don't know how stupid you really are, but this ends here, I am just not sure I want the wolves to be the ones to do away with you, or if I should finish you off myself, either way you look at this you don't have many options here. I showed compassion for Tara, but you on the other hand, I don't think I have it in me to just let you off that easy and send you to the dogs," my instincts to kill her were starting to consume me.
"Bella, I don't think we have time for this, let the wolves have her," Carlisle tried to reason.
"I think that's a good idea Carlisle, but what would be the fun in that?" I said laughing at his reasoning.
"I think he is right Bella, we have other pressing issues," Aro chimed in. How could Aro just send her to the wolves, she betrayed him, was he that callous?
"Fine, I guess you will know suffering just a little bit longer, then you will wish I had just killed you myself Jane," I said releasing my hang from her aching throat.
Just as she hit the floor I sensed Sam and some other the others getting close to the house, Valentino and Joel seemed a bit more nervous along with the stranger on the couch, they were not comfortable with our wolf friends as we were.
"Bella, how are you, Jake said you had some business for us to take care of," Sam said not completely wanting to handle the tasks I was about to ask.
"Yes, we don't have time right now but we need to dispose of a vampire and thought some of the younger wolves could use some practice," I said grinning.
"Oh, well I guess we can handle that, Jake didn't tell me what it was we were needed for, but I see its for a good reason," he was grinning himself.
"Actually if you wouldn't mind Aro, would you like them to take this one here?" I said pointing to the one Caius had hired to intercept my package.
"Very well," he said making a shooing motion with his hand.
Some of the wolves came in and grabbed, the male vampire pulling him as he struggled to beg for forgiveness, saying that Caius would have killed him if he didn't do it, either way we didn't need any loose ends, especially after everything he had heard already. I decided to drag Jane outside myself, I wanted to make sure she was gone and out of the house, and as I proceeded to drop her on the ground outside the door, I told Sam about her paralysis and that it would ware off in about half an hour, enough time to let her watch the other one die before it was her turn. I seemed all to thrilled and dark knowing what I was condemning her to, but my conscious couldn't have agreed with me more, who knows how many people she had inflicted pain upon.
Before heading off with the pack I said my goodbyes to Sam and told him to make her death a slow and painful one, then I returned swiftly back to join the others.
"I'm impressed with your self control, you handled that better than I though you might have," Aro said pleased with me.
"Can we just get back to last scroll?" I said on a less serious note.
"As you wish, I am just trying to figure more out about this Switch of the Pure as it is called, I am not sure if the queen and king must find someone that is of pure blood such as they are, or if there are any special qualifications that allow them to take the place of the pure blood," he said as if holding something back.
Just then my phone rang, Alice again, "Hello Alice," I said a bit more cheerful, maybe she had more information.
"Bella, I need you to go where no one will be able to hear what I am telling you, especially Aro and then call me back, this is very important and you must hurry, there isn't much time," she said hanging up immediately after.
I knew everyone had heard what Alice said on the phone and there was a look of panic on Aro's face, and seeing it made me wonder what she really needed to tell me. "I have to go," I said grabbing the keys for Alice's car and heading to the garage.
"I am going with you," a voice came from behind me as I opened the car door.
"Hurry Edward, you heard Alice we don't have much time," I said starting the engine and taking off immediately out of the garage.
As soon as we were far enough from the house I dialed Alice's number, and she picked up before I heard it ring, "Bella, Aro isn't telling you everything, there isn't a way around the prophecy that will include Edward, you will become the queen, but not if Aro decided to take it upon himself to kill you, he has others coming they will be there soon that's why he didn't fight Jane, she knew about it as well. Ryan is a pure blood and the way I saw it in Aro's mind is that Edward must perform a ritual that will transfer the pure blood to him, and in doing so, Edward and you can take position as king and queen, but I don't know what the ritual exactly is, Aro didn't read it, he only read about the ways around it, you have to get him to read the rest so that I might be able to see what it is," she said almost gasping for air she didn't need. "You have to hurry you only have about two hours and the ritual will take about an hour itself. Once you have done this and you fill this prophecy, no vampire can go against what you say, they only way they can disobey you is if you remove the necklace or bracelet so make sure Edward puts the bracelet on, once it is on, he wont be able to remove it until the ritual is complete. I have to warn you about the risk in doing this, once Edward puts the bracelet on, it will slowly emit venom into his system and within twelve hours, if the ritual isn't complete, then Edward will die…." Her words stung with every second that passed. "Just hurry back to the house and make sure Ryan doesn't get to the bracelet first, otherwise you and him will be bound to the prophecy, I will call you when I know more, please Bella, this isn't just about you and Edward anymore, this is about the whole family now, if this fails, Aro will have everyone killed I saw him ordering it, now you have to change it," she said anxious for us to get back.
We were speeding towards the house so fast that humans wouldn't have been able to see us if we passed them, which luckily we didn't. I pulled up right in front of the house and passed waiting to get into the garage, Edward and I were both rushing into the house when felt something was wrong. Valentino and Joel were huddle closely behind Aro with Ryan at his side, what was going on, what did we miss?
Then I saw it, Ryan was holding onto the bracelet, he hadn't put it on, but by the look on Edward's face, there wasn't much time till he did…
