Pity
MPOV
She was indeed a strange human. Looking at her reminded me so much of myself after my mate died. Despite the withered black bond I could see, I hoped she had not suffered the same fate. I had carried her to Aros' chambers as she has the strongest bond with him. She also has very strong bonds to myself, and to Caius. Somehow I doubted Caius would be very happy about that.
CPOV
That is an abomination! What on earth was Marcus playing at just carrying her off like that? Although, she did look so very... broken. It was strange, seeing her in such despair seemed to have stirred some strange unknown emotion in me. What is this feeling? Does it have a name? It wasn't unadulterated loathing, to my surprise. It was... something else. Pity. That's what it is. Ugh. What had happened to me? The old Caius would not pity a weak human. I must be sure to tell no one I thought. At that precise moment Marcus walked back in.
'I put her in your chambers Aro; she has the strongest bond with you.'
Aro merely nodded. He had been unusually quiet since that human came in. But at that precise moment in time I didn't care about Aro.
'WHAT ON THIS EARTH DO YOU THINK WE ARE DOING MARCUS?' I roared 'YOU CAN'T SEIROUSLY BE THINKING ABOUT KEEPING THIS HUMAN.'
Aro, who usually had such a happy disposition, now had the face of a burning man. When, after several attempts, words failed him, Marcus spoke for him,
'She is extremly ill brother.'
'Somehow I think I may be aware of that.'
Suddenly Aro spoke, his words casting a new light on the situation.
'She's my daughter, isn't she?'
Marcus nodded, and with that Aro rose from his throne and left.
Well, that was unexpected.
FPOV
Poor little thing. She must have been terrified, all on her own in a big scary castle full of nomads. I felt a compelling urge to protect her, not as a mate, but as a close friend or little sister. Yes, I decided, I shall be her big brother. And I swear, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Marcus wink.
JPOV
Why is she so important? She's just a human. My thoughts were so full of anger. And Caius, the great human hater, just letting her stay! All because Aro happens to mumble something about her that I was too angry to hear. And then Felix was going on about being her big brother! And Demetri was agreeing! Sometimes I think I'm the only sane person in this place. At lot of things seemed to be changing around here.
AN- Be honest, did you notice the Wicked reference? Hurrah for slightly longer chapters! I wasn't expecting to write this so quickly, it just kind of came. Any suggestions are more than welcome. The Moosh get excited by reviews *hint hint*
