Carlisle Cullen had never driven so fast in his life. The buildings and fields past by him like they weren't even there, and even Jasper and Alice were holding onto their seats for dear life, as if they would die.

"Carlisle Can you slow down!?" There was no change in speed as Alice screamed at her adoptive father "Please! You could hit someone and not even know it!" This time when there was a reaction Jasper almost went flying through the window.

"I'm just worried Alice" He whispered, looking down at the wheel weakly "I don't know what he is doing to her…"

Alice touched her fathers arm softly "It's alright" she smiled "She'll be fine. I may not have known her long but I do know that she is very independent. She won't let him control her very easily" she simply smiled at him as he speed up a bit more "and besides, we're only a good hour away if we drove like normal people. With your driving we will be there in a good five minutes"

"I just…I'm worried" he whispered into the wheel, not taking his eyes off of the road "you better be fine Maria…"

"Aro I will not abort this child!" Maria screamed up at her ex husband as he sat on his thrown beside Jane "this is my life I will do as I please with it!"

"I am your king Maria" the man was in front of her before she could even blink, and he had placed a hand on her shoulder, squeezing on it tightly as he spoke with her. "You will do as I say"

"I came back fro Carlisle" she growled "so he could have the life he wanted. I refuse to take away the life of his child!" she lost it when Aro threw her down to the ground "Just because you want your own child doesn't mean he has to loss his! I'm not yours anymore Aro! You gave me up for you're Bitch Jane!" this time he smacked her, driving her into the ground as he stood over her.

"Never, speak of your queen that way again" she looked down at the ground weakly, wishing for once in her life she could actually cry "she is my wife and she is none of the names you decide to call her"

"I will not give up my child" she growled "not for anything Aro! You can have your own after Carlisle's is born" she crawled back up to her feet gently and did as much as she could to fix her hair.

"Alright" she raised an eye brown when Aro seemed to agree with her demands "but until the child is born, you're not to leave your room"

"I need to feed Aro"

"I will bring you food" she stepped back a bit "and I will bring what I believe you will need to ensure this child is born properly. Once it is born it will not know anything about its real father"

"No! That is not how it is going to happen Aro! Carlisle has wanted children since he turned 18. You can't take that away from him now!"

"I can do whatever I want" the smile that showed up on his face scared her more then anything "now, go to your room. I will have someone bring you blood in an hour or so"

Nodding her head Maria headed for the door quietly, wishing that Esme had never gone back home, and she had never left Carlisle.
