Estelle's POV
I was going to run.
I had no other choice. I could stay here and be the vampire's special water supply or I could run. I might die but there really is no difference. Die here, or die there. I just happen to prefer there. It was quicker.
I was hoping they wouldn't notice. That they'd be too into their bloody conversations. I heard voices.
Leon's POV
A creak. I shouldn't worry; she probably rolled around in her bed or something. These vampires that the Volturi sent were clueless. We played off the human scent as victims we had sucked dry before. Now, they were smiling and telling us news about the different clans.
Leah was enjoying herself, she always liked being around other vampires. I just hoped this would get over with and then I'd have Estelle all to myself.
Shit.
Estelle's POV
I couldn't find a way to get out. The only reasonable way without confronting Leon and god knows how many vampires, was through the window. Only the window didn't open up. So I threw the chair at it. I knew I only had one try or someone would come up to check on me.
The window was weaker, or maybe I should have thanked Leon for the extra nutrients. Either way I was getting out of here.
Leon's POV
Oh, the smiles were gone now. We were in big trouble.
"I told you we should have told them!" Leah screamed out. Oh great, now she was saved.
I was under treason. For lying to the Volturi, for keeping a slave but there were things more important than that. Estelle was escaping.
"I lied, I know. But right now, there is a human girl out there running and she knows about us." I reasoned. "Let's find her first."
They apparently had a better idea. They split up; half of them led me and Leah away. We were going to die tonight.
