I shrank back into Marcus's chest. I didn't know why he wanted me but I was sure it wasn't anything good.
"No!" Marcus suddenly growled, jerking me from Aro's reach. "I won't let you! You already killed one person I loved! I will not let you kill Bella as well!"
Kill me! Why would they want to kill me? What did I do? Why do all of these vampires want me to die?
"Why? Why do you want me to die?" I asked Aro.
Aro's eyes widen as looked at me, then at Marcus. "Marcus… How could you not tell her?"
"Tell me what?" I asked looking up at Marcus.
"Bella… I didn't want you to worry." He said solemnly.
"Don't you think she has the right to know why this is happening?" Aro asked.
"Know what?!" I heard my voice grow annoyed. I didn't understand what they were talking about!
"You are an immortal child." Caius said, his voice cold. "Immortal children are normally wild, bloodthirsty, and have no control of themselves. You for some strange reason have complete control of yourself now but in time we're sure you'll lose that control and kill anything with blood running through their veins without hesitation, just like all of the other immortal children. One of our jobs as the Volturi is to destroy the immortal children so that they don't kill hundreds of innocent people." Caius suddenly looked up at Marcus. "When I say it's our job as the Volturi to destroy the immortal children I mean everyone here, which includes Marcus."
"That is true." Aro said. "But as you can see she has a unique ability. If she can some how be controlled maybe we can use her ability to our advantage. We can monitor her and if she does lose her control we'll do what we have to do. I say we leave this up to Bella. So what do say Bella?"
I had no idea that Aro was talking to me to me. I was completely oblivious to him.
"Marcus?" I looked up at him feeling a very bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. I didn't know what this feeling was called.
"Please don't look at me like that Bella. Let me take you to Aleera and everything will be okay." Marcus's voice came out pleading.
"The poor girl. It doesn't seem like she's ever felt betrayed before." Aro said, his voice sounded sympathetic.
Betrayal. Marcus said he would never do anything to hurt me. He lied to me. He betrayed me.
"Would you like to help us Bella dear?" Aro asked, extending his arms back out towards me.
Marcus POV
"No." I hissed at Aro, who still had his arms held out towards Bella. "She will have no part of this!"
Bella started wiggling in my arms roughly.
"Bella?" I loosened my grip on her, wondering in I was holding her too tightly.
Bella suddenly jumped out of my arms and into Aro's, clutching to him.
