Heyyyyyyy!!!! I'm back, my wonderful readers! Ok so I know that the last chapter was, indeed, SAD. It was VERY sad. Poor ALEC!!! But it's ok. I promise there'll be a happy ending in this story. But not in this chapter! (Dodges rotten veggies and whatnot, but gets hit in the face with a soda thrown by GinnyMastraniCullen.) (Wipes off the soda and pouts.) Anyways…Here's the new update!!!

Enjoi!!...hopefully.

**WARNING!!!*** There will be some Italian in here so, like always, go to the bottom to find the translations.

Amara's POV:

I ran from the throne room like my life depended on it. I suppose, it always did. I always knew that I was in SOME danger when it came to my…(gulp) family. My family of vampiros…I think on some level, I always knew. I mean, they were all inhumanely beautiful, fast, strong, and most of them seemed to have some sort of magical power. I should've guessed.

I ran down the halls and I heard a small thud then I heard someone take off after me. Most likely, it was Alec. He always came after me. Realization hit me like a ton of bricks. My Alec was a monster…a blood-sucking monster that probably convinced the others to keep me around so they could drink me when they saw fit. I ran faster now.

Reaching my room, I looked over my shoulder once to see Alec catching up to me and I gasped in horror. I swiftly opened the door and slammed it in his face, locking it right away. I could feel my heart shattering as I slid to the floor against my wooden door…

Alec's POV:

I breathed haggardly and unnecessarily as I slumped against Amara's door. I could almost feel my heart LITERALLY shattering into a million pieces. I think, if I could cry, I'd be out of tears right now. Yes, I, Alec Volturi, just admitted that I would CRY over this human. This lovely, lovely human…

I don't know how long I was at her door until I felt someone shake my shoulder. I opened my tear-less, blank eyes to find my twin looking at me with pity but I could tell she was faking. Inside, she was probably smirking. Soul-less creature…

"Brother, leave her be. She obviously wants nothing to do with us…" Jane said with fake sympathy.

I nodded, unable to speak, and rose to my shaky feet. I stumbled the whole two or three feet to my room then flew myself onto my bed, curling into the sheets and wishing for Death to come for me. Life wasn't worth living without my love…

So I decided to do the first logical thing I should've done when I first saw Amara as a baby in Aro's arms. I fled.

I grabbed a pack and stuffed multiple clothes into it, putting a book or two with it. I also grabbed the pouch of cash that all of us, Volturi, had in our rooms, in case of emergency or just…whatever. I stuffed the money into my pockets and zipped my pack, stopping shortly to write a quick goodbye letter. Two, actually. One for the guard, elders, and mistresses; the other for my sweet singer…

Amara's POV:

A knock sounded at my door and I rose shakily to answer it. There stood Aro (I somehow couldn't see him as "Daddy" anymore…) with a calm face and apologetic eyes. He was quiet, and I thought he was analyzing me. But I then I gathered that he was probably waiting for me to speak.

"Y-yes?" I stuttered.

"May I speak with you, Amara?" he said, looking at the ground with, what one might call, remorse or something.

I nodded, that being the only answer he needed. He cautiously stepped into my room and slowly sat himself at the foot of my bed as I stood and waited for him to begin.

"Where do I start…" he asked himself then looked at me, then down at his hands. "You shouldn't have found out this way, Bambini. You were never meant to witness that before your fifteenth birthday…I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what, Aro?" I spat. "Sorry for not telling me? Or sorry for being a monstro?!"

He clenched his fists, tightly, I noticed and took a steps toward the door. Noticing my uneasiness, he relaxed and sighed.

"I'm sorry for not telling you. I'm also sorry to report that young Alec is gone."

THAT got my attention. A-alec…GONE? As in…?

"W-What?"

Aro, I mean, Daddy (guess that got fixed when he informed me of my Alec) looked at me with sad eyes. Now my heart was gone, he having taken it with him when he l-left…

"N-no, he can't…NO!!"

I ran from my room into his to find his bed messy—a rare sight—and a few of his books missing. Including the one he used to read to me as a child…no, wait, here it was…on his pillow with a note. For me. I opened the precious piece of parchment slowly and almost died at the words…

For my dear Amara,

I'm sorry but I had to leave. I couldn't do this anymore. I couldn't see your face and lie about who and what I am anymore. I always had trouble lying to YOU. I suppose that's because you're my La Tua Cantante. That means "singer", as you know. Let me explain what that means in the vampire world.

Your blood sings to me, ll mio amore. I'm surprised I could resist through all these wonderful years with you. I suppose it was because I couldn't bring myself to put you in any harm, oblivious to the fact that I was hurting you by just being around. I truly am sorry…

I leave you this letter to tell you I may never return. I may just throw myself into a roaring fire (the only sure-fire way to kill one of my kind). Do not be frightened of us, Amara. Aro and Sulpicia absolutely adore you and Jane would never upset the masters. As for the others, don't mind them, they're harmless. Especially Felix, he's like a giant teddy bear.

I must also admit that I have loved you since I laid eyes on you. Please understand that this is VERY cliché but is VERY true. You were-- ARE my world. Never forget that. I'm sorry.

Goodbye, My Love

Signed, Alec Volturi.

The words on the paper became blurry as tears clouded my eyes. I fell to my knees in a heap of heart-break and sobbed into Alec's pillow, his scent still lingering. I screamed loudly as I felt a stabbing pain in my chest.

"Alec!!!!!!" I shrieked with grief and pain.

I clutched at his sheets and Aro and Jane rushed into the room, hearing my screams of bloody-murder. Aro rushed to my side and held me as I weeped. Jane, even, looked at me with mercy. I gripped the letter in my hands tightly, crumbling it, and cried myself into a deep slumber. Thankfully, they left me in my Alec's bed…

"Alec…" I breathed as the realm of sleep took me into its embrace.

Huh…not exactly the ending I was hoping for. I hope you guys liked it. Comment and review!!
