Chapter Three- Rude Awakening
Bella stirred in her sleep, she felt to warm, she was so use to have a cold body beside her. Still unaware of her surroundings she traveled her arm around the lengths of the bed feeling for Edward. When she couldn't seem to find him she slowly opened her eyes as they widened at the unfamiliar room.
The room was covered in concrete stone and it was full of candles. It was very Medieval looking. She was laying on a large bed that was covered in rich purple blankets and covered with a dark velvet canopy.
Finally the events of her wedding day came rushing back. She was in Italy with the Volturi, alone. Instead of panic she quickly looked for an exit, no windows, of course not. The only exit from the dim room was a large wooden arc door in the opposite end of the room. Without even thinking she ran towards in and grabbed the handle. Locked from the outside. She kept pulling unaware of the noise she was making until someone opened the door. Aro followed by Jane, Felix and Laurence entered the room, backing Bella into a corner.
"What do you want from me?", Bella knew what they wanted before she even asked the question. She was suppose to be changed into one of them by now, if she wasn't then she was a threat to their secret and the Volturi wouldn't allow that.
Aro
just stared at her deciphering her thoughts.
"Bella why would
you think we would hurt you? Do you really think so little of me?"
Bella looked back confused and caught a glimpse of a frustrated Jane. Whatever Aro wanted she didn't agree. If they are going to kill me.....
Bella
felt a click in her head as she understood the other
alternative.
"Bella that would be a waste, and I don't like to
waste. I talent like yours doesn't come around everyday. Think of the
possibilities when your one of us".
Bella wanted to become a vampire, to always be together with Edward. This was different thought, she felt fear, this would be forced and it wouldn't be Edward. She didn't want this not now, not in the hands of the Volturi.
"Come on now Bella follow me" Aro proceeded with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Edward will come for me", Bella caught herself saying off guard. Why did she say that? She didn't want Edward to come, to risk himself to save her, to keep her human. But if she was going to turn into one of them she wanted Edward to be there. She didn't want to come out of it a blood thirsty vampire and have the Volturi guiding her. What if she kills some one? Edward I need you.
"I'm counting on that" Aro looked back at her. The smile on his face sent a shiver down her spine.
Tears started to form in Bella's eyes as Jane grabbed her arm and led her out of the room to follow Aro. Bella stared back to the room but knew she couldn't get out of Jane's grasp. Bella's eyes met with Lawrence as she noticed he too had a frustrated look on his face, not as menacing as Jane, but still he didn't look happy with Aro's choice.
Edward had just got off the plane and was in Italy. He frantically ran through the airport and ran out the front doors looking around for the fastest car to steal. A black viper strolled up right in front of him. As the dark tinted window slide down Edward heard a familiar voice come from inside the car, "I can't let you do this alone, get in we don't have much time".
