"He did say that" Edward looked at me and I nodded replaying the conversation in my head making sure to leave out the scent. "Interesting" Edward said and I smiled and nodded it was at that moment when we finally saw Master Caius and Master Marcus take there seats.
Chapter 2: The Unveiling
Emmett's POV
I watched two influential royalty leaders and there wives take there spots at there rightful thrones waiting for there brother the head king brother to arrive and the lights dimmed I was smirking trying to remember the last time I'd seen visual effects that were like this. I saw Edward shake his head trying to tell me to behave by that shake. When we saw Master Aro come into the room he was wearing the blue royalty color with the Volturi symbol and ring he was very happy looking and joyous and we clapped respectfully. He quickly quieted us and began what im sure was a well rehearsed speech
"Ladies and Gentleman thank you for coming to this wonderful event this evening I would hope you are enjoying yourself so far. I am glad to see all of your beautiful and illuminating faces tonight" he paused for dramatic effect I assume "I hope you all had wonderful and safe travels here and it is such a delight to see such festive colors and modern wears here this evening as well I am so pleased at our progress of keeping ourselves unnoticed" he stopped and smiled at my father and his wife then to Eleazar and Carmen we are the on family that live among humans were trying to help other covens in that process "as most of you are curious I shall wait no further I am proud to announce as of tonight Volterra has a new royal member to its family" his words stopped as the room sudden gasps one of my own filled the air and the guards at the doors we came from flew the doors open and the most beautiful creature floated out of the left wing she was in a soft red almost queen style dress she floated down the twisting staircase and was joined by Demitri my mind screamed lucky bastard and her eyes were the most golden and I thought no way and my brother nodded her hair was pinned up and let in curls various places on her head and she looked stunning she was perfect in all the right areas and I was just ogling I bet my mother was going to smack me for it later. As she past I smiled wider and her scent drifted into my nose and I stopped breathing instantly and I was in shock
Freesia and strawberries
IT WAS HER. She was the luscious and tempting smell and that lucky son-of-a-bitch is holding on to her I instantly hated Demitri at that very moment and within seconds my brother was holding my arm and warning me with his eyes that I was floating on thin ice if I did anything.
As the crowd kept parting for her and Demitri she had finally reached Master Aro's chair and kissed his cheek and whispered something that seemed to be private. And with that she stood by his side and Demitri was behind a chair
"Please, my fellow men and women of the vampire race allow me to introduce to you… my daughter, Isabella , the heir to the vampire race and the new queen" his voice stopped suddenly and everyone was in shock all over again. I thought there wives were the queens my mind raced for the possible answers and I saw Edward shake his head no. why does he know all this history about the Volturi and I don't. he shrugged his shoulder but I watched as Master Aro placed a crown a delicate one upon her curled and perfect head and I smiled I watched her and studied her and I wanted to get to know her it was like I was dying to get to know her.
"ladies and Gentleman please, help me in celebrating Isabella and her ascension to the throne as Queen" Master Aro clapped his hand and with that the music began to fill the air from the band playing in the balcony of the ballroom and I was lost in the music an moved to the side of the room as this Isabella was glided onto the dance floor by her father Master Aro. I watched then as slowly people started to fill the dance floor my siblings and parents slowly filled the floor and my aloneness reared its ugly head even when I saw Alec and Jane the weird twins as I say even had dates. My aloneness caused a still desperate Tanya to immerge out of no where and wrap her arms around me
"So what do you say teddy bear wanna dance" I heard her voice whisper into my ear, even though I was alone it was rude to say no so I nodded and slowly glided her on to the dance floor and took my place with everyone twirling her around hoping should wouldn't get the idea that It meant I wanted her which so was not the case.
Isabella's POV
Daddy was twirling me around on the dance floor in my tailor made dress and all I could think to say was
"I love you daddy" I whispered it and he smiled and whispered the words straight back and twirled me and brought me back I was enjoying this evening of course I was nervous me a queen ha I can't even walk straight let alone help other people lead there vampric lives straight. I looked around over my daddy's shoulder at all the guest and was surprised to see everyone from my dads old photos and newer photos especially the family he always gushes about "the cullens" he envies there closeness and just wished he was able to pull the guard together with that kind of closeness I told him every time he talked to me that we would eventually get there it takes time. He loved me for that.
Well maybe I should explain who I am. Im Isabella M. Ricci my father is King Aro Ricci and my mother is Mistress Sulpicia, im 20 and a vampire of course I only live off animals unless other wise commended to like such as events I occasionally have a drink of human blood. Im brunette of course you already knew that im 5'5'' and the now queen due to my mothers inability to come to the throne because none of the wives were original heirs and I am. Back to the party.
I was interrupted from dancing with my daddy when Demitri came up and bowed and asked the king to dance with me and I giggled and he gave Demitri my hand and kissed my other and said
"my dearest enjoy the night for you are the queen of the world and of my heart I love you" and he turned and walked toward his throne toward my mother who sat in a small 16th century females chair and started to talk. I focused my attention back to Demitri and smirked.
"So, what made you decide to cut in?" I question him. Out of all the guard members Demitri and Renata were my favorite. He looked down at me and pulled me close and danced with me and whispered in my ear
"Because, unlike my wife you actually like to dance" he chuckled after saying it. It was absolutely true his wife Renata absolutely hated to dance. They were secretly married although I think Chelsea knows but won't tell. You were supposed to get the kings permission but now that I am queen I might be able to work something out. After a few twirls I noticed a tall broad hunk of a man twirling with some strawberry blonde and I nudged Demitri.
"Dem, whose that?" I questioned I'd been through test after test but right now my mind was drawing a blank to his name
"That dear is Emmett Cullen son to Dr. Carlisle and Mrs. Cullen" Demitri whispered and I nodded. I kept dancing keeping and eye on him it seemed like his head wasn't in the dance like he wasn't in it at all the girl wasn't holding his interest
"Is he mated Demitri who is that girl with him" I asked again after the few moments had passed and Demitri's head looked toward Emmett's area
"That dear is Tanya Denali daughter to Eleazar and Carmen Denali surely you've heard of Eleazar? And no they are not mated I know on good authority that she has tried but failed due to her talent as they say" he said into my ear and I gave him a look of curiosity and he replied "her sexual nature ma'am" he addressed me formally
"Just because im queen don't do that Demitri" I didn't want my own best friend addressing me so formally I wasn't the queen of England I didn't hold that much of a prestigious title to them I finished my conversation to him with a simple "please introduce me to him Demitri" I stopped our dancing and he escorted me to where Emmett and Miss Denali were dancing.
"Emmett" Demitri said, as if they were on first name basis
"Demitri" Emmett responded stopping dancing with Tanya and looking at Demitri then noticing my presence bowed and said "your majesty" I looked at him and giggled
"Please call me Isabella or Bella or Izzy" I said giving him the name my father calls me and only my father well and my uncles.
"Isabella," he said again bowing. By the time his head came back up I noticed Tanya had disappeared how rude to not even address me.
"Well, now that I've introduced you, I must go see how my Renata is doing" he bowed to me again and I winked at him and he walked off I gave my hand to Emmett
"Would you care to dance" I asked him. He nodded quickly I guess his interest to dance was only met by if you were the right woman perhaps?
Emmett's POV
I watched as she walked over this way and I was stunned was Demitri really bringing her over here. As she came close I heard them stop
"Emmett" Demitri said
"Demitri" I said at this point I had quit dancing with Tanya. I lowered my gaze from Demitri to see Isabella and bowed saying "Your Majesty" I heard her giggle I wanted to hear that giggle more my head was reeling with the sound of it.
"please call me Isabella or Bella or Izzy" she said, I wanted to call her all the names and more I wanted to scream her name I wanted to hold and say her name repeatedly letting her freesia and strawberry scent drip and flow around me and over me.
"Isabella" I repeated hoping she heard me and I bowed again at this time I noticed Tanya had left, silly girl she knew I wasn't into her and she finally got the hint.
"Well now that I've introduced you too I must see how my Renata is doing" I heard Demitri say and walk away quickly she offered me her hand and I took it
"Would you care to dance" she asked, I thought it was odd she asked but I was glad because this beauty made my tongue want to tie up in knots but also make me want to speak so fast that should probably couldn't even understand a word I said.
We started to slowly glide and dance as a song familiar to me came on I began to hum along It was a favorite and I was lost in the song and in the dancing that when it was finally over I looked down at her and she spoke again
"I would love for you to escort me out to the gardens" she smiled sweetly to me how I could resist when she was asking me
"as you wish your majesty" I forgot that she asked to be called Isabella and I smiled and corrected myself "miss Isabella" she smiled as I corrected myself and with that we left one of the side rooms and walked along the candle lit corridor and outside toward the moonlit night with the stars bright outside
"Emmett thank you" she said smiling at me, her smile illuminated her face more she was the perfection of beauty and I find it hard to believe that Aro hid this beautiful creature for so long
"No, thank you Isabella, you saved me" I winked walking along the many paths in the garden. She looked up
"How so did I save you?" she questioned she wondered how she was a hero in my eyes.
"well that blonde that was in my arms she has been a very troublesome item in my world, constantly there, constantly trying, needing, wanting what she can't have and that is me. She tried to see if we mated which I wouldn't give her what she wanted and we aren't true mates but she still throws herself at me and I felt bad tonight so I gave her one dance but you came just in time so she couldn't ask for a second" my words mumbling out fast I hope she understood me
"So I saved you from the potential threat of a girl gone mad because she's in love with someone who isn't in love with her" she smiled at me and then continued "how sad is that. I hope she finds someone or gets help" she laughed out loud the most delicate and soft laugh I wanted to record it on my phone it could be my ringtone 'ok Emmett stalkerish' my head told me.
We continued walking and we headed toward another part of the castle and she smiled and pulled me toward a bench
"Can I confess a secret to you Emmett" she asked me I nodded
"I actually knew the whole story behind Miss Denali, I asked Demitri, I just wanted to get to meet you" her eyes looked sincere and she smiled I stared into her golden eyes and smiled
"Well, I have a confession of my own Isabella" I whispered like a school boy ready to admit a crush. I was stalling and she smiled
"Well go on Emmett please do tell me" she cooed tenderly to me
"I've smelt your scent all day" I said that a bit stalkerish I admitted in my head
"What do you mean by that?" her voice sounded confused
"you smell of freesia and strawberries and I've smelt it all over the castle and its alluring and tempting to me I've wanted to scout you out all day it was like the biggest game of hide and seek ever" my words were vomiting out of my mouth again. Why was this happening to me?
"oh, well, umm," her words were a bit strange and confused she was kinda in the middle of a thought when she added "I think we should get back to the party Emmett my father would worry where the queen is don't you think? I laughed and helped her up and escorted her back and kissed her hand as we reached the ball room and she whispered
"Your smell tempts me too" and with that she walked toward her father and uncles leaving me there stunned and speechless.
