Chapter 18: La Tua Cante Calls to Everyone

EPOV

I left Bella in her bed. I didn't want to, but I had to. I smelt James and I wanted to be sure he wasn't planning anything. I quickly kissed Bella and promised her I'd be back soon.

James was farther than I thought. He kept thinking of his last meal, I tried blocking him out.

"What are you doing around here? You better not be feeding off the humans around here or you'll have some big dogs angry at you." I almost laughed. James was a friend but I never liked his choice of humans over animals.

"I just came to talk. I heard that you and Bella were finally together, congratulations. I also heard you replace me with some girls." His eyes narrowed. He was angry that we replaced him so easily.

"We couldn't find you anywhere. You weren't answering your cell. We had to find someone to help us for the show and Rose knows how to play bass. We've been looking for another guitarist too and Alice knows how to play. Bella singing with me was for feelings of nostalgia and I want her to be with me forever. I'm not going to leave her here again and chance losing her to something...or someone..." I thought of the bite mark she had obtained.

If I had been there she never would have gotten bitten and she never would have gotten hurt. She would have been safe with me.

"Well, Bella is a very good looking girl. And her scent can drive any man wild. Virgins always taste so good and pure. I'd love to have a taste of her." He licked his lips and I saw his imagination go wild.

"Don't you ever go near Bella again!" I growled ferociously. He smiled and laughed.

"I don't think we have much of an option now, do we?" He smiled and showed me something horrible.

Bella, lying dead in her bed, drained of everything.

Without a second thought I ran back to her house. Rage pushed me faster and the feeling of my breaking heart (even as a vampire I could feel it breaking.) was the most painful thing I've ever felt. Even transformation hurt less.

"I jumped through her window and caught a scent I hadn't smelt in a long time. Laurent, mixed with another male and two females. I couldn't place the males scent and the female scents were new to me.

Grabbing my phone I dialled the number for my house and prepared for the worst from Emmett.

BPOV

I awoke and immediately felt dizzy. I didn't know where I was but I knew it wasn't my room. Or Edwards room. It was a dark place, with the windows covered in black paint and the walls painted blood res. Or maybe it wasn't paint...

I pushed the thought out of my mind. I would not believe the walls were covered in blood. I tried moving my arms and legs and was relieved when everything moved like it was supposed to and pain free.

I guess who ever brought me here didn't want to hurt me...or maybe he was waiting for me to be awake...

I sat up and looked around. Everything was either black or blood red. The bed I was lying on was black with black and red covers and pillows. It looked like one of those rooms a vampire would have in the movies.

The furniture in the room was black with blood red cushions and lace and a vase of red and black roses was on a small black round table in the middle of the room.

"Do you like it? I've been designing it for some time now. Waiting for the perfect moment. And meeting up with those others made it much easier. James is really good at getting under peoples skin..."

I was terrified of that voice, of his face. I knew who it was and I knew this was either going to end with me dead or me as his vampire sex slave. I was hoping for the first.

"Ed...Edward...he'll come...a-and sa...save me..." I couldn't speak right with him around. It's like he turned me into a weak little school girl who couldn't take care of herself. I'd been hanging out with newborns, the one who can't control themselves extremely well, for the past few weeks and he turns me into a girl from a vampire movie. Weak and useless.

"Edward is not coming. He doesn't care about you. He was just keeping you because you are a virgin and virgin blood tastes best. If I had gotten my way with you he wouldn't even have given you a second glance." His white teeth flashed against his olive skin.

I didn't want to believe him.

Edward said he loved me. He said he wanted to be with me forever. But...why doesn't he want to turn me if he loves me...maybe he doesn't want me...maybe Laurent is right...

I couldn't move. I couldn't believe I had been so stupid. I fell for his stupid trick. He saw how Emmett and Rose were together and just imitated that. I almost gave him the only thing that is still mine. The only thing I have ever fought to keep. The thing I thought I wanted him to have. He only wanted to use me.

"I know how you feel. Finding out someone is only using you. After all, how do you think many of us become vampires? A male or female vampire loves the scent of your blood and pretends to love you. Then when they get what they want, they either kill you or bite you and leave you to fend for yourself. I was part of the latter. You lover was more for fun. I was bored and wanted to try to turn you friends. They are a disgrace to the vampire world. As are his parents."

I hadn't noticed that he had moved from the door to sit next to me. I couldn't feel anything. Not pain, not fear. Nothing. I didn't even flinch when he put one hand mine and the other was stroking my hair.

"I don't want you to use you. You are beautiful. Even as a human. I could just imagine what you'd look like as one of us." He had tilted my head and his lips were almost at my neck. I wasn't scared. My heart still beat at the same pace. My breathing came easily. I wanted this. But I wanted him to lose control and kill me now more.

"Laurent! You said I could turn her!" A man with sandy blond hair barged in and pulled Laurent away from me. I watched them argue, barely paying attention. Mostly feeling nothingness. Only one thing was going through my head.

Edward doesn't love me. He was using me. He only wanted me for sex. He doesn't love me...

"James, you turned Victoria, Bree and Riley. I think I should turn my dear sweet Bella. She will be mine anyways. You already have Victoria AND Bree. I don't think either of them would appreciate you being with a third girl."

"I don't care what they think. I want to taste that sweet blood. Her scent calls to me."

"It calls to me as well. And to any vampire with a sense of smell." Laurent was now standing. James was slowly crouching.

"We both know I can beat you. I am stronger." James let out a growl.

"You may still have newborn strength but I have years of practice and I am much smarter than you are." Laurent crouched too and growled.

"We will see about that." I heard a crash of the window and then saw no one in the room. I could see it was night and the moon was out. All I could hope for was that either of them would lose control and kill me.

Note: Hey people! I hope you're happy that I'm updating on the next day! I decided to end it here for now. I may update again later today or maybe tomorrow. I'm not really sure yet. If I don't update it's because my computer is screwed up again...Please R&R. Thank you to the people who have been reviewing. I love reviews!
