Caius smiled as he entered the room, he must have heard the whole conversation.
Chapter Eleven
Star Crossed
(EPOV)
"How much to time do we have!?" I was screaming at Alice. We were sitting outside our driveway.
"Edward. I don't think we have time. I don't know when she got there, but I do see them killing her."
"Alice. Please tell me it's not too late." I was tearlessly sobbing as I spoke to her.
"Edward. I am unsure. I keep searching for her and all I get is her tell them why she's there. I see Marcus smiling as he bites her."
"Alice get out." I sobbed. I couldn't do what I wanted with her in my Volvo. She'd never let me go.
"Edward don't do anything foolish. Not at a time like this!" Alice pleaded.
"Alice I don't know what I'm going to do, but I assure you I'm not going to Italy to die." I had to get her out of the car. My skin was boiling over with fury.
"Bella wouldn't want you to do this Edward. She left so you two would still live." She said meekly.
"Please just go!" I snarled at her. She turned her head and kissed my cheek.
"Don't kill him, Edward. Do what you have to do, but don't kill him."
I would have to make this stop quick. It was all Jacob Black's fault and I couldn't let him get away with this. Bella's blood was on his hands. I felt nothing but rage and sorrow consume me. My eyes were the darkest color they had ever been. I was speeding to La Push. Jacob Black would not get away with this. I dialed his number and told him to meet me at the edge of La Push and Forks. He agreed. I could hear him shaking as he hung up the phone. I didn't care if he brought the whole pack; I would kill them all if I had to. My Bella was dead, because of him.
I was surprised when he stepped out alone. His whole body was trembling. His mind wasn't even trying to control himself anymore. He was just as ready to fight as I was. The trick to this whole thing would be to make him break the treaty first. That way I wouldn't be responsible for killing him.
"What do you want?" Jacob snarled at me.
"I just want to let you know that you're responsible for Bella's death." I yelped. His face turned purple and he was shaking rapidly.
"I would never kill Bella!" He yelled.
"If you and your damn pack would have just let me change her she wouldn't be dying in Italy!"
"She went to Italy to get away from you!"
"She went to Italy to save you!" I snarled at him.
"Why would she go to Italy to save me?" He was confused, but hostility still rang in every inch of his voice.
"If she would have been turned, you would have tried to kill us. If she wasn't turned the Volturi would come here and kill her. She went to them to save you from being killed! You killed her!" I could sense it coming, he was about to change. In less than two seconds there he was no longer Jacob Black, but a giant russet wolf.
Jacob leaped at me and I met his leap and we were both snarling and fighting. He dug his teeth into my skin and I could feel the pain trickle down my arm, but I bit him on the side of his neck and he yelped in pain. In less than two minutes our fight was broken up with Alice pulling me off of him and Jasper sending out massive waves of calm to both me and Jacob. Jacob immediately transformed back into himself. I could see the marks from where I bit him on his neck. He was bleeding.
"Don't you two idiots understand why Bella left!? To keep both of you alive! Quit being so damn foolish!" Alice was fuming. Jasper was now trying to calm her down too. I turned around to see Carlisle looking at me concerned. Esme was giving me a disappointed frown. Emmett was sulking, probably because he wasn't the one in the fight. Rosalie was just fuming, she was as angry as Alice was.
I smelt something disgusting, I knew it had to have been more of them. I turned to see Sam and the rest of the pack emerge from bushes. They quickly transformed into wolves and were ready for the fight to begin. The treaty had been broken. I turned to apologize to my family. Everyone, but Emmett, didn't want to fight. I looked at Jacob and snarled. He quickly turned again and tried his best to pounce on me. We were rolling away from everyone else. I was digging my teeth into his arms as he was pulling away howling. I could hear his thoughts and he had been the one to tell them he broke the treaty.

"Hmmm…interesting" Aro muttered. "We would have kept to our deal Bella. I see why they were so hesitant to change you, now." He turned to Marcus and touched his palm, and then he turned to Caius and touched his palm. "Well both of you have very different solutions." Aro was smiling. "However, I agree with Marcus on this." He turned to me. "Here is what is going to happen. Marcus will turn you. It will be very quick and easy; well it will hurt of course. It will only take a couple of hours. Then we will put you on a one way flight back to Forks where you can be with your Edward again. Only if you promise to visit us again soon and tell Carlisle to come as well."
I couldn't believe what he just said. They were going to turn me. Maybe this was a trap, even if it was it didn't matter, I had decided to do this to save Edward, I wouldn't stop now.
"How will it only take a couple of hours? Doesn't it normally take three days?"
"Ah yes, indeed, it does. Marcus is very aware of transformations and while it will be much more painful, it will however be much faster. He will bite you in all the right places and he will take out just the right amount of blood, because you see…" He trailed off and Caius finished his sentence.
"Because you see, if he takes one drop too many, you will die." His eyes were black.
"Okay." I stammered. "When…when do you want to do this?"
"How about now!?" Jane said excited.
"I think he should do it now too." Caius's voice frightened me. I looked at Marcus, fully looked at him and his irises were black.
"Maybe, you should…hunt first…" My voice was quivering.
"The sooner we get this over with the sooner you can go home." Aro sang.
"Right." I sighed. If this was a trick, if I was going to die, it would be worth it; I was ensuring Edward's safety. Tears started to lightly trickle down my face.
Marcus was back to looking as apathetic as possible. He licked his lips and his face turned into a wicked smile before he pressed his teeth deep down into my neck. He took my right arm and bit deep down into my wrist. The next thing I knew he was biting my side. I could feel the fire going all through my veins. It felt ten times worse than what I had remembered it. It was so hot yet so cold at the same time. I almost felt as if he was draining my body completely. The pain was unlike anything I'd ever experienced before. I could feel my blood oozing out of my body and into his mouth. I was starting to get woozy. My head was spinning with pain. I wanted to remember Edward one last time before he killed me, but all I could think of was the pain. I was wailing now. The pain was taking over me. I tried to push Marcus off of me, but it did nothing, it made him bite down harder. I couldn't focus anymore and I fell right into purgatory itself. I could hear the outside surroundings, but the fire coursing through my veins reminded me of hell.
