I spent most of the afternoon with Mrs. Solari, who had insisted we all call her Aimee, Ness and most of the other people who had come with us. Alice and Aimee were talking designing, which I found out was a big hobby of hers. No clue in the fact that her home was amazing. When we were joined by Edward and Aimee's son, Adam, we got talking business and tactics on how to destroy the New Order, which wasn't a subject I enjoyed talking about but the thought of killing Emmy was making me feel better. I gave Edward's hand a quick squeeze when he finally stood near me but he snatched his hand away. Even though he was good at hiding his affections and putting on a poker face, he still looked unhappy, and I'm sure he squinted when we talked about how to kill Emmy, but I suppose he had got so close to her, and she has done this to him.

The more I thought about it the more I noticed that Adam was also showing the same upset expression, weird, since he was supposed to be her enemy. He shot me an angry look and I remembered what Aimee had warned me earlier, that everyone who was an outsider could have their minds read from an insider, and Adam had just heard that I had noticed him been upset...shit...

I liked the fact that no one could normally hear my thoughts and wondered whether putting up my shield would stop it. Seeing as it wasn't a power, it was a spell I was unsure, I was just about to try when Adam butted in causing everyone to stare at him, and then me as he told me that the spell wasn't effected by any power. Everyone's eyes pondered over us for a while and then they continued with their conversation. Aimee had invited her head guard over too and they were all rambling away.

This was normally Edward's thing but he didn't seem half bothered in saving his family and the rest of the vampire world. He just stood and gazed at the fence gate, I'm not even sure where it led to. You could get lost in this place in about 2 seconds.

"Well that's settled then" said Carlisle as he stood up from the white metal table and followed the guard and Aimee back into the building. I stood and gazed as I tried to figure out what was going to happen.

"It's fantastic isn't it Mum?" said Ness softly, she must think that I was looking at the palace so I just went with it.

"Yes it really is. Have you seen much of it while you have been here?" I said trying to lighten the mood.

"Yes, the room they are letting me stay in is fantastic, as well as her office and ..... " as Ness started to talk about the palace with Alice, who came just as she heard the subject of the convocation. I was pulled out of the girly chat as I noticed Edward still stood in the same spot, looking at the gate. He hadn't moved a muscle and even though we could stand still for hours on end and not be bothered, we rarely did it, and I had never seen Edward doing it for so long. It looked like he was in a trance and oblivious to everyone around him.

"I'm err... just going to talk to your dad"

"Ya... sure mum. Is he alright?"

"Erm" I just shrugged my shoulders and walked over to him, as I reached him I put my arms around him and placed my head in his chest.

"What's wrong Ed?" there was no reply.

I looked up to meet his gaze as he stared down at me, the heart ache was visible in his eyes and I wasn't completely sure why he was so upset. I was just about to ask him when opened his mouth to speak and I didn't want to interrupt him. He hadn't spoken much all day.

"I can't do this" he said like he was disgusted by his words.

"What do you mean you can't do this... Ed what do you mean?" I said, startled by his unexpected answer. I pulled away from him and looked at him waiting for his reply. My arms were crossed over my chest and my hands in tight fists.

"I can't... kill her"

"What... after everything she has done... she tried to kill us Edward... she tried to kill our family, our daughter... You, Edward she tried to kill you!" I was screaming enthusiastically at him and was sure that everyone was staring at us, but I didn't care.

My husband had just said that he couldn't kill the person who had just tried to kill us. I don't care how close they had become; he wasn't risking the lives of our family, friends and most of the vampires, because he had made a friend with the wrong person

"I'm sorry"

"No you're not, because you're not doing this!"

"I'm sorry"

I was just about to shout at him when he ran forward so fast that even I couldn't see him moving, and then he was gone. The gate he had been looking at earlier was swinging shut again.

AN – I hope you're liking it. Review please.
