Chapter 7:

Renesmee POV

I watched Alec walk out of the room. I felt guilty for almost laughing. I could still feel Alec's emotions; an anger , embarrassed, and confusion. I didn't want to invade his personal thoughts, but it wasn't like I could read much into it given he knows how evade mind readers.

I let myself wonder the extend of Marcus power. He had the ability to see ones relationship. According to him, Alec and mine's relationship is strong.

I looked back at Aro. He already knew my reason or reasons why I left from what I had shown him.

LMy dear, we be delighted for you to join us here!" He clapped his hands together. "And please think about joining our guard." Aro is a friendly guy just has his creepy sides, just don't understand why my ex-former-family the Cullen's never liked the Volturi.

I smiled and nodded, "I will thank you for your hospitality. I'll think about joining."

I looked at Jane and smiled. Yeah, she's friendly. LJane, please escort, Renesmee to her room that Heidi has arranged for her." Jane nodded. Jane linked her arm to me.

"Thank you Aro, Caius. Marcus."

"Wait," I whisper to her I turn back to Aro. "Aro, may I ask for a favor?" I asked.

"Yes, my dear. What is it?" He raised an eyebrow. I unlinked arm from Jane and walk back to Aro.

I touched his hand as he extends his to mine. To my family I am not here. Please Aro? Aro eyes sparkled as I finished the question he took no hesitation.

"Yes, my child you aren't here."

"Now go, you must be tried." I nodded but I wasn't tried. "Tomorrow Jane and Heidi will shop some clothes and some other things. So you will no need to be worried about that." I nodded as walked to Jane and linked our arms. "I saw you somewhat have ... control or ... manage over your powers. I would like for you to train but that's nothing to worry about for now." I nodded I definitely need to train with them. "You may go now. Have a good night. Renesmee."

"As well as you Aro, Caius and Marcus. Good night."

"Come on." Jane dragged me to start walking excitedly.

As we walked down the corridor I asked her questions about herself, turns out we have lot in common.

We stopped to turn to a wooded door with an 'R' on it. "This. This is your room. Mine's two rooms to your right with that 'J'. And Alec's is almost in front of yours with the 'A' of course." She laughed. I glanced at Alec's door. I wonder what he would be doing in there. "So I'll come by later, to continue talking. I see why we become good friends. Your bag is in your room. Some clothes are in your closet, Okay?" I nodded and she left. She wasn't far down but the doors were too far apart. How big are these rooms?

I sighed, closed my eyes as I twisted the door knob. I walk in and turn around to close the door. My eyes were still closed I turn around to the inside of the room, or so I think. I gasped at beauty of the room beautiful forest green walls, dark brown wooden furniture; desk, lamp stands, shelves, drawers and walk in closet doors. There was a soft black leather couch on the corner of the room in front of the bed next to a colorful pattern window. The bed was white and olive green round king sized bed. I walk to the closet and open the doors. I gasp. Some clothes? Two fourths of the closet was full. With some of the clothes I brought with me and the clothes Jane said, I was thankful.

I checked out the bathroom. Again I gasp. There was everything! A Jacuzzi, bath tub, shower, a mirror that cover a great portion of the bathroom. Along with the sink. It had every beauty product a girl would need but I would never use. This whole room was like made for me! My style room. I felt like home.

I go out of the bathroom in to the room. I realized I was still wearing Alec's cloak and was still in my humid clothes. I looked toward the door. The cloak wasn't even wet. Weird. I take it off and put it on my desk roll over chair. I head over to the closet. In the process of checking the clock. 9:50.

I get the simplest clothing I could find for me to wear to change after my shower. As the warm water hit my cold body it calmed me I didn't realize how tense I was. I step out and change quickly, run my brush through my bronze curls. I glance at the clock again. 10:15. It wasn't late to make a visit, besides a vampire never sleeps, then again never say never.

I grab some shoes and stalk out the room, closing it behind me. I take a deep breath and head over Alec's room.

I felt a need see him, an attraction towards him that shouldn't be there. As I walked to his door, it seemed forever to get there, I was dreading seeing him but the need overpowered that. Just wait until the Cullen's find out I get along with the horror twins.

I looked at the door blankly. What was I really doing here? I had his cloak in one hand, delivering could wait until morning. He probably heard my heartbeat giving myself away by how hard and irregular it was beating. There was no turning back now, I was here already. I knocked softly but still loud enough to here.

"Come in..." He seemed unsure in letting me in. I take a deep breath and turn the nob slowly.

He was lying on his back his eyes closed. Maybe vampires could sleep. I take three long cautious steps forward; I turn to see if the door is closed.

As I turn back, he shot up fast and turned to me. I could feel rejection rolling of him. Of what?

"Hey..." I said moving forward to the closest chair. "I... uh... came to give you our cloak back." I could feel a small blush rising to my checks, adjusting the coat over the seat.

He smiled, "Sure... you can just leave that there." He stood up and walked to me.

"Well, I'll- that's all. See you around." I quickly turn and start walking off.

"Wait, Renesmee, I wanted to apologize for the outburst earlier in the hall. I'm sure you're old enough to make your own decisions" Was he serious?

I nodded. "It's alright, I know it wasn't to-" I hesitated, thinking for the right word to express, "undermine my abilities."

"Not much of undermining your abilities given that I doubt your family really trained you for combat or survival."

I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms in a defensive form. "I managed to survive without my family just fine for a month, Alec. On my own. The only reason I'm here is to have them not find me and unfortunately this is the last place they'll look."

He moved to his couch and gesturing to a spot next to him. I hesitated but sat down with a distance. "Feisty little hydrid."

"If your intention was to get a rise out of me I'm leaving." I stood up, walking to the door, "I also wanted to apologize for almost laughing at you. I meant no intention of doing so. It's—nice you care." I told him. He seemed shock like if I caught him.

"Don't worry, I don't care. You're free to do as you please." I frown, his anger was flowing to me making me frustrated. I wanted to know what I did to make him so angry but didn't want to invade his thoughts.

"Hmph, yeah, right." I open the door ready to leave when he's suddenly in front of me.

"Wait." Closing the door crowding me against the wall his hand poking my neck. "What this?"

OW! I flinch from his touch, his hands felt ice cold against my throat. It was a burning sensation, I just thought it was for not hunting I didn't look at myself in the mirror give I really looked like a mess. He moved my hair from my neck. "Is that a hand print?"

I put my hand over my throat. I wince from the pain, it hurt, walked to the closest mirror to look at what was on my neck to inspected. Alec came closer. Our faces were no more that inches apart. "Who did it, Renesmee?" His over protectiveness threw me off guard as I tried to remember. Of course, Demetri when he found me, he had pinned me to the wall with his hand on my neck.

I glared clearly annoyed at Alec, "Demetri, when he found me." he was looking at me worried, not understanding how I stretch my hand up to his face and showed him what happen when Demetri found me. He went from shock to mad to hatred.

This couldn't get any better when Demetri came in. Demetri shocked to see us together. I looked at my hand that was under of Alec's hand. Uh-oh. I looked at them both.

Both doing an animalistic growl, and looking ready to attack. "You. Hurt. Her."

"Alec, dont-" I begin moving to stand between them.

"Renesmee, sorry. I didn't mean to. I didn-" Alec interrupted him. Stepped in front of Demetri as he tried to approach me.

"Don't get near her. Don't you see she's scared of you?" He snarled. In that moment I knew what everyone saw, the monster Alec could become. He is the dangerous and most feared vampire and I didn't know that until that moment. I just stood there shocked and scared of Alec.

"You don't know that!" I tuned out of there discussion, they argued as if I wasn't there. The arguing lead to a fight. I swear I've gone paler. I stood there, I knew I had to intervene before they escalated any more.

"Stop." I whisper. "Stop!" Much louder now but they didn't. I started crying I was truly scared. I ran out of the room into Jane's.

"Jane! Jane!" She looked up from her book and saw me panicking.

"Ren? What happen? Are you alright? What this? Is that a hand print on your neck? Who did it?" She looked at me I kept on hyperventilating.

"Jane—they are fighting—Alec- and Demetri—room-Alec's room." She looked shocked and upset. I focused on calming down knowing that I wouldn't be useful in distress.

"Come on." She pulled me along. Before we got to Alec's room I saw Alec fly in to the wall. I gasp and ran to him before he could stand up I hold him still. He saw me his eyes went from hard to soft. He lifted his hand to wipe a tear. I heard Demetri growl and Alec trying to stand up again, I glare at them both.

"STOP!" I put a hand forward to stop Demetri. "What has gotten into you two?" I looked back at Alec. "I can defend myself perfectly fine, Alec." I turned to Demetri, "I get it, you're sorry. It's okay I'm fine." Standing up moving away from Alec, I look to Jane "I'm no one to care if you kill each other, but not with me sitting there."

Jane had a hand in front of Demetri chest, while I sent waves of calmness. The one I really had to focus to use it on was on Demetri, jealousy, anger.

I looked at Jane. "Jane, let them be. I don't want to be part of this." I turn around and stalk off in to my room. I slam the door, but not hard enough to break it.

Sliding into bed, I started think of what Marcus power ability had on Alec and I. Tomorrow I would talk to Felix and have them back off. I drifted off to sleep with a migraine, and dreams of those ruby red eyes.

Alec POV

I saw Renesmee walk off. I looked at Jane. She looked after her all three of us did. She sighed.

"Look what you two done! Especially you Demetri. Is that how we make her stay?" I stood up, dusting my self off and walking into my room. I have no time for this, slamming my door. I could still hear them arguing. Why even bother?

I took out a sketch sheet and a pencil I didn't know what I was drawing. Till I finished I let a frustrating sigh and crumple the paper. The drawing keeps repeating. I kept on. Drawing Renesmee. I stopped and went to lie on my bed. I closed my eyes.

She was feisty little one, I bet if I rile her up a bit more she could give as good as they get. As I kept my eyes closed, I kept seeing her face, hearing her voice and her irregular heart beat, the sound of her blood flooding her cheeks. Her scent was more intense in the rain and after her shower.

Oh no. I sat up abruptly. I think I'm like—the half-breed! Why me? I've been dead for more than a six centuries to be I'm feeling this weird emotions. I haven't felt this way since—I can't think of it.

I sighed, and lay back on my bed silently thinking. Her scent appeals to me, I'm getting a feeling of something in my heart, and— I stopped, and realization drawing in. Aro had mention she was someone's singer, looked at me and Renesmee weirdly, reminding me of the way he looked at the first time Afton and Chelsea. It couldn't be could it?

I would wait till morning to find out everything. She hasn't been here a day and she already has this effect on me. I would indeed find out in the morning. I looked at the clock, 2:15 in the morning. It was going to be a long night.

After a few hours, I wondered if Renesmee was awake, most likely not but I didn't need to wait until what was considered decent hours in the morning when I could find out right now. I got up and dash up to my door to hers.

I figured it was safer to not knock. It would call Jane's or others' attention. I enter the room and closed the door quietly as possible, I had heard her deep breaths and her quite thump of her heart different from when she's awake. I looked around and notices on the light stand there was a picture of her and EJ hugging each other in it they seem like 7 to 10 years old?

I watched her sleep, her angelic features and beauty was more defined now that her face was at rest. More innocent she looked than when she was awake, while she still held some of those features but they where now less sharp and striking more like a cherub angel.

"Alec?" I stay frozen, looking at her knowing she hadn't woken up yet. She sleeps talks?

"No, Jacob!" What could she be possible dreaming? Who was Jacob? "EJ! Don't help Jacob! Go help, Alec!" She started crying, trashing around her bed, using my power to numb her body so she wouldn't hurt herself. What could be happening to me in her dream? "Someone listen... to me." She started screaming, since she couldn't move. I walk up to her, taking her hand only seeing pitch black, I guess her power only worked when she was awake.

"Renesmee..." I shake her but she wouldn't stop screaming. Withdrawing my power, I scooped her up and settle her in my lap and rocker he back and forth, shushing her. I patted her head as a signed of comfort, like when I would do to Jane as kids, and rubbed circles on her back, but having Renesmee in my arms was stronger than a brotherly love like Jane and I had.

"Sh. Renesmee, everything's okay." I kept rocking her back and forth. That minute Jane barged in. She looked at me and smirked finding me with Renesmee in my arm sobbing trying to calm herself down. I looked at her one last time Jane smiled patted my shoulder and left.

She jumped up from my arms. She ran her hand through her hair. "Alec," she breathes. "What are you doing here?" What was I doing here? I came in to ask a question, and then she started sleep talking and screaming.

"You started screaming, I came to see what was wrong. Jane came few minutes after me but left as she saw you were calming down." She blushed.

"Um... Thanks? I think." She had a small grateful smile playing on her lips.

Standing up, and move a bit away. "You're welcome," I look to her bed then to her. "You should go back to bed now. It's..." I looked at her clock. "4 in the morning you should get some more rest." She nodded and sliding down into her bed she adjusted her hair, her scent hitting me like bricks and all I could do was inhale her beautiful scent reminding me I needed to hunt if I wanted to be around her.

"Good-night, Ness..." I didn't want to leave, or leave her alone incase of another nightmare.

"Night, Alec." She yawn and went back to sleep. I looked at her and I gently closed the door.

I heard a laugh behind me, making me cringe, I froze in to place slowly turning. "Brother, lovely, you have found your singer." She knew?

"Boys. So clueless." She walks off. I couldn't deal with her now.

I enter my room, sighing it was a long night indeed. I let a groan escape my lips. Not him again.

"Alec, what do you want with Renesmee?"

«Renesmee POV»

I was stunned that I was in Alec's arms. I never even heard him come into my room. I laid in my bed thinking again I couldn't fall asleep again after that dream, so livid so real. I heard Jane outside my door laughing and talking to Alec. That line left me thinking. "Brother, lovely, you have found your singer." She knew?

I rolled over to my back. These questions would ponder my brain till I got an answer. I close my eyes to concentrate.

I was back to sleep, I knew that very well. This time my dreams were filled with romance of first love. Slightly weirded out because only a ruby red eyed boy took over my dreams. Those ruby red eyes were beautiful, and unique. Those red eyes were known, and very feared in the vampire world.

Alec Volturi took over my dreams.

I like him. The minute he caught my eye, I felt what my mom felt when she saw her dad and vise-versa, but unlike their love Alec's and I was impossible. I didn't come here for love, and the minute the Cullen's found out they would keep me away from him. At this moment, I didn't want to fall in love, in fact, I was running away from it but I cant shake what I feel.

He gives me fuzzy feeling in my heart, and soul I never felt before. He makes me feel I can be anybody. In his eyes some kind of emotion is in those ruby red eyes. I can feel it in my heart. I was in falling in love with Alec Volturi.
