Stephanie Meyer owns Twilight. I don't.

MPOV-

I folded my arms across my chest,''No.''

''Just eat it,'' Alec groaned, the frustration evident in his silky voice.

I glared at him from across the table. I would have been lying if I said he wasn't beautiful. A monster, but a beautiful monster

''I'm not hungry,'' I say as I push the bowl of food away from myself.

''If you don't eat, you'll die,'' he whisspers.

''And wouldn't that be a treat for you? You wouldn't have to worry about the stubborn imprint fighting you for her life. Just drink her blood and leave her,'' I said, my voice full of venom that not even Aro could muster.

''If you think that's all you're worth to me,'' he growls uexpectedly ,''Then you're sadly mistaken.''

He gets up and leaves the room, and I stand there.

He actually terrified me for a second. For a second I thought my blood would be in hi soon.

But my maternal instincts keep in, and for some reason I am stalking out after the hormonal teen vampire.

''Look at me,'' I say when I reach him.

He sits on my bed and pats the spot next to him.

I sit, ''Tell me why. And don't give me any shit ecause you know exactly what I'm talking about.''

''I want you. That dog doesn;t know how to treat you right. He could hurt you. I could, too, ut I will be so gentle I'd take care of you and your beautiful kids. I know you can do etter than him. Just give me a chance. I can give you all of the things you'll ever want,'' Alec says, looking me deeply in the eyes.

To say that I was shocked would e an understatment.

''Alec,'' I begin ,''I can't be happy without him. Or my kids. I need them, there my reason for living.''

''He's a mutt!,'' Alec snaps ,''A dog. I'll give you kids, if that's what you want. Better kids and beautiful.''

''What the hell is it gonna take for you to let me go,'' I whisper ,'You've taken me from my family. You kidnapped my friends. Why?''

''Obviously you would help the Volturri if you where with us. You're smart now, but imagine if you where a vampire. Think about it, Micha. Think about the power, You and I and the rest of the Volturri, ruling the vampire world. Sure, we do already. But there are those vampires that don't listen. And with you, even the Cullens will be eating out of hands.''

I've always been a little imperialistic, and the thought sent an unexpected wave of intrigue through me. I'd be vampire royalty. But my heart comes first, and Jacob is my heart.

''What will it take for you to leave me alone, Alec.''

He looks at me, and I am feintly sure that if he could blush he would.

''You mean that? If I let you go you''ll give me what I want?''

''Yes. I'm a girl of my world.''

He brings his mouth to my ear, and I am sure that he's going to say every vampire's desire: blood.

In a voice that is just aboce a whisper, he makes his command:

''Let me help you.''
