A shatter of glass and a shrill scream caused me to wake quickly.

"What on Earth are you doing here, Felix?" A voice… Esme's voice screeched as I heard loud footsteps and muffled talking.

It wasn't long until my door was thrown open, two pairs of red eyes glaring down at me. I felt my heart race as I jumped from my bed, backing away as the bodies were now gone and in the blink of an eye, next to my side.

I screamed, tugging away from the strong holds but their hands had kept me in place.

"What are you doing?" Esme cried out, trying to reach for me. A man blocked her path but she easily swept under his arm, her motions a blur as she grabbed me from the middle, pulling me to her chest. I clung onto her, my head under her chin as I felt the tears producing in my eyes. "Get out of my house!"

"We have orders to take Miss. Swan to the Mansion." His rough voice said, clearly annoyed with the disturbance.

"On whose orders?" Esme growled.

"Aro's." The man hissed, his red eyes blazing into mine as I turned my head, clinging onto Esme tighter. "Now if you will let go of the girl…"

"Bella…" Esme faltered but I shook my head. "Bella, sweetheart, you have to go with these men."

"Why?" I cried out, feeling her gently pull me from her arms as I tried to cling back on. She wiped my warm tears as they continued to spill down my lid, pushing me away.

"I know you're confused, but you need to go with them. They won't hurt you." She told me.

"I don't want to! Where is Alec?" I cried out, feeling as a cold hand wrapped around my wrist pulling me away from Esme. I reached out with my free hand, trying to grab her but she stood still, her hand covering her lips as if she were crying but no tears came out.

"You'll be okay!" She told me as the arms of the monsters held me to them, walking me out. At some point between my thrashing, I began calling out to Alec. I screamed his name over and over again until my throat was dry, but he did not come to my aid.

The sun hanging in the sky blinded me as they took me towards a car, one opening a door for me and despite my yelling, threw me in.

The doors locked before I even had a chance.

Not like any kind of chance would have help me.

I felt frozen in time as the car started moving, my tears falling down as I turned to the house. My eyes rested just a few stories up, a pair of red eyes staring down at me. His auburn hair was hard to miss and I felt myself inhaling sharply, more tears spilling as my palm went against the glass of the window as if in a message to him.

Help me.

-TSIPWR-

The icy hands grabbed me once again; picking me up and shoving me towards the large woodened door of the castle, two men standing out in the front staring at us as we passed. I choked back a sob as my feet were dragged across the floor, my tears staining my skin as they fell onto my lips forcing me to taste the saltiness of them.

We stopped in front of a large black door, the men who had carried me putting me on my feet. They stepped back and away, leaving me in front of the closed door. I took a step back but one had snarled, forcing my foot back to where they had placed me. My body began shaking, convulsing. I couldn't stop as the fear consumed every waking moment of me.

I jumped as the door began to creak, lifting and opening to reveal a large rounded room covered in marble. A red throne sat at the top of the room, the man with dark black hair looking at me in disgust.

"Come in, my dear." He hissed like a snake.

I was glued on spot.

I couldn't move my feet.

His face contorted into annoyance, his lips pressing into a hard line.

"Come." He said sternly. "Now."

My lips quivered and I very slowly put a foot in front of me and began to walk. I clutched my arms to my torso; the tears still free falling as I had made it into the middle of the room.

"You have exceedingly bended my patience, Miss. Swan. We have matters to attend to." Aro told me. "I had wished you could have been cleaned up." He clicked his tongue, eyeing me up and down at my attire. I was still in my sweats and tank top from the night before. "But I guess there has been minor set backs." He sighed, rolling his head towards my right. I turned to look, seeing Alec in the corner. I gasped, his eyes dark as his cheek had one large black crack in it, like a splinter in a board.

"Alec…" I stepped to him, but Aro hissed, forcing me back into my place.

"Miss. Swan, I do not have all day and because I am on my last bit of tolerance we are going to make this fast and quick." He told me. "You are being traded into the Cullen household."

"Traded?"

"Yes."

"I don't… Understand…" I trailed off.

"It means, Isabella, that you will no longer be living with Alec." He told me as I felt my heart drop heavy with sadness. "You were bought by Mr. Carlisle Cullen and he will be your new master."

"Master?"

"She doesn't understand, Aro!" Alec growled.

"What does she not understand? Her place in this life?" Aro asked, staring back between Alec and I.

"I told her what she was but I never treated her that way. I never made her a slave. She doesn't get the mechanics, she doesn't know any better!" Alec growled as I could tell he was trying his hardest not to move, obvious that some threat was holding him back.

"That is neither my problem nor my concern." Aro answered him sharply. "She is a donor. A slave. And she is no longer yours."

A donor.

A slave.

I was imprisoned.

"No!" I cried out, moving from my spot and running to Alec. Aro stood quickly, watching carefully as I threw my arms around Alec, just like I had done to Esme, but this time with more strength. "Please don't let them take me!" Alec hugged me tightly, pulling me to his chest as he shushed my sobs. "Please I'll do anything! I'll do anything you want! Please! I don't want to go!"

"Ma biche…" He whispered, running his fingers through my hair. "It's okay. It will be okay. Look at me…" He said, grabbing my face. "You are going to be okay."

"Please I don't want to go…" I cried shaking my head.

"I know, I know you don't. But you have to, doe. You have to go." He nodded his head, wiping away my tears. I shook my head and clung onto him, shoving my face into his neck. I felt the vibrations of his growls and I knew someone was coming for me. "You'll be okay, Bella."

Someone grabbed my waist and I let out a piercing scream.

"No! Alec, please!" I cried, reaching out for him when the hands had completely pulled me away. "No! Please don't let them take me! Please!"

Alec hung his head, hiding his face as I was pulled farther away, out of the room as the doors slammed in my face, the body taking me farther and farther as I continually screamed out for Alec, screaming for him to save me, to take me back to Deer Isle, to go back to our normal lives.

But he did not come.

And I was now a human donor.

A slave.
