"This is what you were made to do," Victoria said, coming up behind me. "What makes him different from the girl in the woods?" She asked. She was right though, taking the girl in the forests life was no better than taking the small boys. I sighed. "It will get easier," she encouraged, resting a hand on my shoulder.
I was torn on what to do. I hated what I had done to the boy, but it wasn't like she forced me to devour him. Plus if I left her, where would I go? The only vampires I knew had left me, they hadn't wanted me. "Alright," I said. And we ran back to the house. "You still have some of your human instincts. Soon, the kill, it won't matter who it is. It will be easier for you, to take a life," Victoria said. I nodded, but I didn't believe her.
"Our friends will be here soon, go wash up," she instructed and went into her room to do the same. I walked to my room, and noticed a pile of clothes she had apparently lain on my bed. I picked out a red v-neck t-shirt, and a black skirt. More red, who would have thought. I stood admire myself again. Maybe, if I looked like this when I met him, maybe then he would have loved me. My heart broke, all over again. "Bella, there are some people who would like to meet you," Victoria called.
I walked out and saw a man, and young lady. The man's appearance startled me. It was apparent they were both vampires, but the man, he looked old… He was attractive, but his skin was almost translucent and looked frail. The girl on the other hand, was extremely gorgeous. Both of their eyes were red.
"This is Aro and Jane," Victoria said with a grin. "Bella," Aro exclaimed, "I've wanted to meet you for quite awhile." He embraced me, as if we were old friends. Startled, I pulled back. "Shall Jane try now?" Victoria asked. "Yes, she shall," Aro said with a smile. Confused, I looked over at Jane who smiled broadly at me. Then, her smile turned into a frown, an angry frown.
Aro laughed, and Victoria joined in. "That's enough Jane," Aro said. "I told you she was special," Victoria said gleaming. "I don't understand," I said, quite confused. "In due time, you will, Bella," Aro said putting his arm around me. I shrugged it off and glared at the three of them. "Bella, Aro, is royalty among us vampires," Victoria said glaring, as if I had down something wrong. Aro smiled. "Don't be harsh on her, she's young," he said, " Bella, I was wondering, if you are interested in coming back to Italy with me."
I thought. If I leave here, he might never find me, he might think I'm dead. No, he knows. Alice would have seen if, if he wanted me, he would have been here by now. I sighed. "I have nothing keeping me here," I replied. "Excellent," Aro replied, "Victoria pack your things, you've done well."
