"Hey, Bella! Guess what!" Victoria called from inside the house. I looked up from the book I was reading and came face to face with the stranger's face that has become all to familar.
"What Vicky?" I asked happily. I had sort of come to enjoy Victoria's company. She isn't like other kidnappers she let's me do almost whatever I want. The only thing I can't do is contact any of my family or the Cullen's.
"I'm going to change you!" She said excitedly. Vicky had said a few times already that she would change me but she always backed out.
"For real this time?" I asked. Her golden eyes burned into mine. Yes, golden. Victoria has gone 'vegetarian'. One of the conditions on my kidnapping. She go 'veggie' and I stay with her.
"Yes for real this time. I promise." She said.
"You promised the last 6 times." I said. I picked my book back up and continued reading.
"Come on, Bell. I really, really, promise this time. Then once you are no longer a newborn vampire we can move to wherever you want." Vicky said.
"Won't that give Alice a way to find us?" I asked without looking up from my book.
"She in Europe, darling. What can she do about it?" Victoria said. I finally looked up from my book. I sighed and gave her a small smile. Obviously she didn't know what Alice could do about it.
"Okay." I said finally. Vicky clapped her hands excitedly and I set down my book. She sat next to me so I lifted my chin and she came close to my vein. I took a deep breath as she brushed her lips against my neck.
"I'm sorry sis." She whispered before her razor sharp teeth sank into my flesh. I let out a scream of pain as she bit both my wrists. Once she pulled away from my left wrist I collapsed and my whole world went black.
A year is how long it took Victoria to finally change me.
