Hey everyone, welcome to the final chapter of Trapped Angel. This has a time skip to it, a year later where Alicia and Alec are to be married and live a long, loving life in Volterra after the honeymoon. Alicia has gotten quite accustomed to her new free life in the Volturi, as princess to Aro, Caius, and Marcus, and sister to Jane, Heidi, Felix, Demetri, and the rest of the guard.
Enjoy!
A year later:
Ever since Alicia had been freed from her former 'master' Vladimir, her life had improved greatly from top to bottom. Sulpicia had become a second mom to her, Marcus practically a second father, and everyone else was like brother and sister, except for her father Aro of course. Alicia's life had improved even more a year later because at the moment she was getting ready for her big day; she was marrying Alec and they were going on a honeymoon trip to Rio de Janeiro in a palace Athenodora owned. As of then four women in the big dressing room were fussing over every detail on the bride.
"Where's Heidi with the dress and veil? We have to hurry up!" Sulpicia was freaking out from Heidi's tardiness to get the dress altered and ready in time.
"Calm down Sully we still have an hour and a half, besides her makeup's almost done, all we have now is her hair and dress. Where's Alice she said she had a surprise…?"
"I don't know, Jane can you…?"
"Sure Lady Sulpicia, I'll be right back." Jane teetered off in her blue high heels to find the pixie girl. As Sulpicia got the curling iron ready she noticed Alicia shaking in her seat holding the bracelet that once belonged to her birth mother. Aro had given it to her because Evelyn let him have it the night Alicia was born. It was real gold with a ruby rose, amethyst heart, sapphire harp, and topaz panda charms dangling on it.
"You miss her dear?" Alicia smiled and nodded.
"I wish she could be here right now, with me on my wedding day." Sulpicia put both hands on her shoulders and rubbed them slightly.
"I'm sure she is, she's watching over you in heaven right now. I really think she wouldn't want to miss her daughter's best day of her life." Athenodora nodded in agreement then went off to find Jane.
"Actually the honeymoon may be but yes this one will be one to remember." Sulpicia tried to start up the iron but it wouldn't click on.
"Oh damn this thing needs new batteries, I'll be right back dear." Sulpicia went out of the room giving Alicia some time to think to herself. She clutched the bracelet in her hand and held it to her heart.
'I miss you so much mother, I wish you were here with me.' As if Alicia's prayer had been answered, she looked directly into the mirror to see her mother's face smiling back at her. "Mom…?"
"Yes honey? You're not crying are you, come on it's your big day you should be happy."
"I am mommy, it's just that…"
"I heard you talking to Sulpicia dear, don't worry I'm right here. I wouldn't miss my only daughter's wedding you know that. Come on now don't cry…or are those tears of joy?"
"Mother…I just wish you could be here with me in person. Father he…"
"It's ok honey, I had a chat with him a little while ago. He's done a great job in helping you through this whole ordeal. Not to mention he made the right choice in letting you marry Alec, he's a fine young man. I don't blame him or anyone for what happened to us Alicia, it was all because of a man craving revenge for his own crimes against your father. I see you have my bracelet I gave Aro…" Alicia clutched it to her tightly.
"He gave it to me as a wedding present."
"It's very valuable honey; it's been in my family for years. It was your great-great-great grandmother's, given to her by your great-great-great grandfather who made it himself. Consider it a family heirloom, and keep it with you at all times."
"Mom I miss you so much."
"I've missed you too sweetie, but I'll always be with you. You know I will, and I'll be watching over you every step of the way. I'm very proud of you Alicia…" Alicia's eyes watered up again and tears began falling. "I love you Alicia Mystique Vanderlin-Volturi, take good care of yourself and Alec and make sure he does the same for you. Be a good girl honey, goodbye."
"No mom wait! Wait!" her mother's smiling face disappeared in the mirror and Alicia's tears fell again, this time in happiness; now she knew her mother was with her everywhere she went, even today. Soon Alice, Heidi, Jane, Athenodora, and Sulpicia all walked inside carrying the needed supplies.
"We have it all—what's wrong Alicia? You're crying…" Jane went over and wiped the running mascara off Alicia's cheeks and Alicia fell into her arms.
"I'm fine, I'm just happy…" Jane smiled and they took Alicia by the hand helping her into the dress and fixing her hair.
Meanwhile in the men's dressing room:
All the Volturi and Cullen men were busy putting on their tuxedos and ties, or in Marcus's case, his priest's robe and crucifix since he was the minister for the wedding.
"Damn Alice really went sky high with this whole thing didn't she?" Demetri asked adjusting his pants.
"Does she always do this?" Jasper, Edward, Emmett, and Carlisle all rolled their eyes.
"It's worse with weddings, like with a mother in law everything must be absolutely perfect for the bride and groom." Jasper groaned fixing his sash.
"How you feeling there Alec?" Alec didn't say a word, just kept looking in the mirror adjusting his garnet silk tie and vest. He was a bit fidgety and nervous, but his eyes stayed stern and stiff. Edward went up behind him and patted his shoulder.
"Ease up there Alec, it's a big day for you and Alicia."
"Yeah dude, at least it's not as stressful as Rosalie and my weddings. She always goes off the deep end with the preparations; it's only worth it when the honeymoon comes. At least it is after having so many weddings, the first was special though." Alec smiled and snickered finishing his vest, then a knock came to the door.
"Master Aro, the other guests have started arriving." Gianna called through the door.
"I'll be out in a minute." Aro finished fixing his hair and pulled his jacket on before running out of the room at vampire speed.
"Oh Master Caius your wife's looking for you!" Caius grabbed his jacket and ran at vampire speed. Everyone laughed knowing he was still on marriage probation after his bad treatment towards Alicia, hopefully this was his last day.
"Better hurry up we have twenty minutes." Edward warned and all men finished quickly then went out to greet the other guests, but Marcus left to find the ladies dressing room. As he glided down the hall he came to the room where he saw Jane, Heidi, and Alice all walking out in their gowns helping a shy Alicia out; Marcus looked as if he could cry right then and there. Alicia's gown was pure ivory white silk with a long train in the back and purple flowers decorated the bottom and her long veil. Her hair was curled and held up halfway like Aro's but no side burns, and the main jewelry she wore was her mother's bracelet, purple garnet earrings, and a matching necklace.
"You look absolutely amazing Alicia." He went up and hugged his beautiful niece. She hugged him back and made sure her makeup didn't run.
"Thanks Uncle Marcus, I just can't believe how expensive this dress must've been, and the jewels…" Marcus closed his eyes and smiled before looking back down at Alicia.
"Heidi didn't buy those things Alicia…they belonged to your aunt, my Didyme." Alicia's eyes widened realizing she had on some family treasures.
"Really?"
"Yes, she wore those exact same items on our wedding day. Truthfully, you look just like her in that gown." Alicia smiled and twirled around in her dress giggling. Marcus kissed her cheek and took her by the hand after giving her the bouquet of white roses, lilies, and violets. "Come, it's almost time." He led her to the second largest room in the palace where all the guests were waiting. The bridesmaids, the groom men, and Aro were all lined up outside the door waiting for the two. All bridesmaids were dressed in long satin blue gowns with white lilies in their hair. Jane had been made the maid of honor, and her hair was loose with a long curl down her shoulder and her partner was Felix, Heidi with Demetri and her hair the same as Jane's but behind her shoulders, Athenodora with Caius, and Sulpicia was with Afton since Aro was giving the bride away.
"You look like an angel my beautiful Alicia." Aro held her to him and she hugged him tightly.
"I can't believe it's been a year since we first actually met. I feel at home here, and now I'm a true princess…" Aro took her face in his hands and smiled.
"You are a princess, you're my princess. I will make it most certain you will always be with me, no matter where you are."
"Thanks Daddy." They hugged again and the music started. Marcus made his way down first up to the altar, then the bridesmaids walked slowly with the music playing, and then finally Alicia and Aro were walking down the aisle as everyone stood up to watch. Many gasped at the sight of Alicia's beauty, others just stared and smiled.
"This is all for me, they're here for me. Oh my god look at Alec. He's so handsome in that tuxedo, so strong, so brave, oh Alec you can probably hear everything I'm thinking."
"Yes Alicia I can." Alicia's eyes widened at the voice and she saw Alec smiling at her and he winked. When they finally reached the altar Marcus opened his bible and cleared his throat.
"Who gives this woman to this man?"
"Her mother and I do." Aro spoke and lifted Alicia's veil from her face. He took his spot next to Caius and listened as the ceremony began.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony. If anyone has any objections please speak now or forever hold their piece." A few seconds of quiet went by and Marcus continued but Alicia paid no mind to it as she kept looking at Alec with loving eyes, until they exchanged the rings. A few minutes after she continued staring Marcus asked the main question for the entire ceremony.
"Do you Alec O'Brien Volturi; take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"Do you Alicia Mystique Vanderlin take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for as long as you both shall live?"
"I will…forever." Everyone awed at that.
"Then by the power vested in me, by the laws and witnesses of the vampire world I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." They kissed quickly and everyone cheered as they ran at human speed down the aisle with smiles on their faces and Alicia held the bouquet high in the air until they reached the throne room set up for the reception. They took their seat at the head of the table and everyone else piled in to celebrate.
"I'm so happy for both of you!" Alice and Heidi shouted with glee as they each hugged the newly wedded couple. Multiple hugs came all around, and the dancing soon began; Alicia danced with all her new brothers and family, and the Cullen men including Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle, and of course Edward. Her first dance with Aro was magical, just like she'd pictured in her head during that whole year before the wedding; the same was with her uncles, though Caius had the same stern look on his face he seemed relaxed around his new niece.
"You alright Uncle Caius?"
"I will be after tonight."
"Aunt Athenodora finally taking you off probation?" he nodded and Alicia laughed before she was back in Alec's arms.
"You alright darling?"
"I am, I just can't believe we're finally married. Mated for life…"
"Oh yes, I've waited too long for this day yet I still feel like it won't end anytime soon." Alicia smirked at him and kissed his cheek. Soon it was time to throw the bouquet, and of course Jane caught it with Felix smiling widely at her. When Alec threw the garter Edward Cullen ended up catching it, making Bella blush since Emmett must've told a crazy joke after that.
"Guys the limo's here!" Alice called from the parking lot out back and Alec carried Alicia into the limo's door before getting some last minute pictures and kisses goodbye.
"Take care of each other!" Jane.
"Have fun, send us a postcard if you can!" Alice.
"Behave yourselves both of you!" Caius.
"We love you kids! Have the best time you can!" Sulpicia and Aro.
"Bye everyone! Thanks for everything; we'll see you in a few weeks maybe more!" Alicia and Alec both waved goodbye to the crowd and the limo took them off to the Volturi's private plane at the airport. Aro kept waving and waving until the limo was out of sight; Sulpicia took his arm and kissed his cheek.
"They'll be fine." He smiled and turned to hug his wife.
"I know they will." They turned and followed everyone inside to fix up the place.
In the limo towards the airport:
The pilot and flight attendant greeted them when they got there, their luggage was taken onboard, and they were taken inside to a full luxury plane with comfy chairs and a large amount of space.
"Wow, this is amazing." Alec put his arms around her waist and kissed her neck.
"Just wait until we get to the palace, that's the real surprise." The plane took a couple of hours but it seemed like forever because Alec was getting even more fidgety every second he acknowledged Alicia's beauty.
"Excuse me Mr. and Mrs. Votary, we are about to land so if you could please fasten your seatbelts we'll be there soon." They did as told and the plane soon landed. Another limo was out there for them and the attendants loaded their luggage into the trunk and the chauffer helped them inside.
"This place is amazing." Alicia just loved the bright scenery from the beautiful town. The large blue ocean dazzled in the sunlight, and the large statue sitting on top of the mountain was a great photo opportunity, if she had a camera.
"It's one of the most beautiful places on earth. Caius thought so and that's why he bought Athenodora a castle on an island not far from here."
"I didn't think Rio had any palaces…"
"It didn't, Caius had it built for her. It's not as big as the Volturi palace but it is extravagant, I think Jane was the one who convinced her to let us use it for a honeymoon. Plus it's near a cloudy part of the beaches, so we could go swimming if you want, day or night."
"Is it private?"
"Only to home owners…but the owner is your aunt so we're ok." He kissed her again this time deeper. The drive was peaceful but quiet as the chauffer drove all the way to the cloudy part of the town. When the limo stopped suddenly the newlyweds looked out at the huge majestic castle on top the hill.
"We're here Mr. and Mrs. Votary." The chauffer opened the door and servants came out taking their luggage escorting them into the palace to the master bedroom, well one of them at least. The room they found was a large room with oak furniture with the walls decorated in gold, silver, emerald, and sapphire colors. Alicia picked up the front of her wedding dress and ran to the window, screeching at the magnificent view.
"It's wonderful!" Alec smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist. He began kissing her neck and up to her ear; until a hand stopped him. "Not now…not…not now Alec." He groaned and pulled back.
"When?"
"Later…tonight."
"That's too long." Alicia giggled and playfully pushed him away. "Get your swimsuit, I have a surprise for you." He raised an eyebrow and she left the room carrying a small bag with a bikini Alice bought her as a wedding gift along with expensive lingerie. She shut the bathroom door behind her seeing the room was made of pure marble tiles, with the colors blue and white, large Jacuzzi tub and shower, platinum sink and toilet, and gold decorations.
'Alice you really outdid yourself this time.' She smiled and carefully changed out of her aunt's wedding dress and jewels. Carefully undoing her curled hair it fell down her back and swayed as she shook her head. Carefully sliding on the black and red rose designed bikini she winked at herself in the mirror seeing all her scars were barely noticeable, all thanks to the blood she'd been drinking.
"You ready yet Alicia?" Alec called from behind the bathroom door and Alicia quirked an eyebrow with a sexy smirk.
"Coming dear." She slowly opened the door with a sexy pose and one eye winking. If Alec had any blood flowing in his body he'd be beet red from head to toe.
'Even Jane's gift couldn't withstand the power of Alicia's dynamite body.' She walked over to him and slipped on her swim skirt before wrapping both arms around his neck.
"You ready to go? It's nearly sunset…" Alec didn't know what to say.
"Y-Yeah…sure…let's go swimming." He stuttered and Alicia smiled pulling him to the door. Her body distracted him so much he didn't notice her leading him to the balcony just twenty-five feet over the ocean until the fading sunlight caught his eye. "Why are we…?" before he finished his sentence Alicia pushed him over the ledge and splashed into the blue ocean. She looked over and saw him surface quickly swinging his head to get his hair out of his eyes.
"Not cool Alicia not cool." He called up to her.
"Heads up honey!" she shouted before taking a few steps back and leaping over the ledge into the water. "Catch me if you can!" she giggled and swam at human speed until Alec caught up with her and kissed her fiercely. She kissed back and pushed him away playfully then swam for the beach. The sun went down quickly until it became a dark blue twinkling with a few stars. Alicia posed on the beach as Alec came up on the shore shining in the moonlight. He looked at her and jumped on her at vampire speed; his body on top of hers, their eyes meeting and thoughts racing.
"Angel…"
"Tiger…" their lips met and the passion rose. Moments later they were tangled together, limbs entwined, breaths mingling, bodies melting, both completely lost in each other.
"Al…Alec…A-Alec…" she panted his name in his ear and he growled into her mouth.
"Ali…Alicia…" his voice hoarse until the final moment and they both laid there in the sand, exhausted for the moment. Alec held Alicia to him and she snuggled into his stone chest.
"I love you."
"I love you too." They kissed again and watched the stars throughout the night. They had the rest of eternity to live with each other, all was well.
The End.
Well that concludes Trapped Angel everyone, thanks so much for all the reviews they are greatly appreciated. There will be a sequel in about a month or so because I'm fixing to start school back and things will get tight, and it will involve someone from Alicia's past but the main target was/is Didyme, Marcus's wife. I will be posting another story later and it will include Caius having twin children, a boy and girl, missing for over 1000 years, biologically his and Athenodora's by a rare miracle. The only question is, why doesn't Caius and the rest of the Volturi know them, even with Marcus's power?
Look around to find out in a while, it will be called "Forgotten Memories", and the sequel to this one will be "Missing Angel". Keep reviewing my others cuz I could use some more opinions. Until next time!
