-Sonya's point of view-

I took off through the trees towards where I had first met the newborns, and caught their scent, I turned invisible and once again and jumped into the tree tops.

Following their scent was fairly easy and the two newborns that I had killed earlier were gone.

'They have finally found them and possibly burned them," I told myself.

'I almost revealed Aro's true relationship to me to Raphael Cullen, Ah' I sighed, 'how could I be so reckless.'

I flashed back to a week after Aro and I met.

'I stay in Aro's room,' I thought to myself, 'Why does he take care of me so well?"

It had been almost a week since I had almost been Alec's lunch, and Aro has taken considerable care of me, since he saved my life. What I do not understand is why, I may have special blood, but many of Aro's 'guard' as he calls them do as well, Jane and Alec are polar opposites and quite gifted and Felix is just a tank. But why do I stay in Aro's room?'

Maybe to keep me from becoming dinner, Aro is not here right now but I have many books to keep me occupied, I am currently reading one on Greek and roman mythology, my favorite. The Gods and Goddesses fascinate me, but I am interrupted by Aro as he walks into the room.

He has a worried look on his face,

"Sonya," he calls me to his side and I comply, "Marcus and Caius do not trust you, and I need to give them reason not to doubt you, my dear."

"You wish to see my memories again Master Aro?"I asked.

"Master Aro," he laughed softly, "Not even a Volturi yet and yet such respect."

"Aro," My eyes softened, "No one has ever treated me as you do and I do enjoy it."

Aro raised an eyebrow

"Close your eyes, then, "he commented and I obeyed, he placed his cold hands on my cheek and I felt his fingers gently stroking my cheek.

After a moment, I heard him speak,

"Well, Sonya, I did not know you felt that way," he took my warm hands in his cold ones, one eyebrow arched, his red eyes glinted and he smiled.

"Feel what way?" I said quite taken back.

"Did you really think your dreams are hidden from me?"

"No, of course not, Master Aro, I apologize," I replied.

"Do not fear, my dear, this is not a bad thing, "He said pulling my hands to his chest.

My flashback ended as the newborn scent got stronger, their was a cave up ahead in the rock face. The scent of blood got stronger as I got closer.

"This has to be it," I thought to myself, the bloody stench was overpowering reminding me of my need to feed.

Jumping gracefully from the tree I landing silently on the top of the cave looking in through a hole I saw two newborns talking to a Spanish women.

"Maria," A short male spoke to the woman.

"Yes, I assume your reason to disturb me is that you have some information," Maria glared at him coldly.

"Yes, Yes of course," He stuttered.

"Now what did you have to tell me?"

"We have an intruder," the second newborns replied and Maria interrupted him.

"Lunch?" She asked in a delighted voice.

"No, one of Jasper's pets," the first newborn replied.

"A wolf," she smiled coyly, "I want him alive."

I look back to see a large wolf sauntering this way, a large red wolf.

'Jacob,' I think furiously.

I turn visible and yell,

"Jacob, Run."

He looks shocked and then growls furiously. I turned him invisible and the vampires started coming at me. I slowly sensed his scent fade. He had left.

I dropped down in front of the cave to see Maria smirking, when she saw me, her smirk faded,

"You're not a Cullen?"

"Wrong guess," I stated pulling my hood back to reveal the Volturi symbol on my neck.

"Volturi I should have known," she nodded her head to a newborn at her right who dragged out a human woman kicking and screaming.

"Shh, Shh," Maria cooed and looked to several newborns around her, "Lunch, my dears."

The newborns lunged at the woman, fighting over her while feeding, I caught the scent of blood in the air, and my hunger wanted it surprising me. I resisted and my vision went hazy, I felt arms clamp around me and tried to break free uselessly.

And then for the first time as a vampire, I was beaten, a bag went over my head and heavy chains were put around my wrists and arms.

With blood so close there was no escape.
