The Umbra

Chapter 4: Get out of my head!

(Bella POV)

Something about this Sonja made me nervous to have her near my daughter at first. She's very unpredictable. I didn't think she'd be so willing to let Renesmee show her the past. However I was getting annoyed, We still didn't know why she was here. I'm sure Edward read her mind by now and he knew. I would have to get him in private. As Renesmee used her gift to show the rest of the Sonja's coven the truth, I looked to Edward and motioned him to come over. I planned to take him out of the room but I could see Sonja looking at us in a suspicious way with her arms folded. I wasn't afraid of anyone but there was something about her that just made you never want to make her mad. Edward knew why I called him over but he gave me a look. We excused ourselves even though we could see Sonja looking at us weird. We went out the back door and ran as fast as we could into the forest, just far enough to get out of Vampire hearing range.

"Did you read her mind? Find anything out?" I spoke to Edward. Edward would shake his head in disappointment. "I think someone in her coven is a shield like you. She was shielded from the time she pulled up in our driveway. The only time I was able to read her mind was when Renesmee was showing her the past, Then she was suddenly shielded again. I think I should get her in private." I didn't like the sound of that. We still didn't know what she was capable of. But if Edward could get her in private he could find that out, and why she was here. We spoke for a fee more moments about what we were going to do then we quickly ran home. We were only gone for 10 minutes tops. Once we got back we noticed that Adonis, Rachel, And Titus had all made themselves at home on our couches, Sonja leaned against a wall with her arms folded watching Lylah and Renesmee speak with each other. Lylah and Renesmee seemed to really like each other. Which put a slight smile on my face. Until I saw Edward making his way over to Sonja across the room. I could hear him perfectly. "Our Father Carlisle Cullen hasn't arrived yet, So I think it best if we go for a walk so I can explain the rules we have here, If that's alright with you." Sonja seemed a bit hesitant at first but she gave a nod of her head, Suddenly Titus would immediately stand up looking as if he were going to follow, until Sonja lifted her hand to him, then he hesitantly sat back down and watched Edward and Sonja as they left the room. Titus now seemed uneasy, Sonja being out of his sight must make him feel uneasy. I know how he feels. I didn't want Edward alone with her at all. But If anything went wrong, Alice would see it, or we would hear something.

(Titus POV)

This was getting boring already. Half of the coven wasn't even here yet and we couldn't get to business until everyone was here. How rude not to be here once we arrived. If they knew they were coming they should half chose to hunt way earlier instead of waiting until the last minute. I've been alive long enough to know good manners.

Suddenly I hear Edward speak to Sonja asking to take her in private. NO FUCKING WAY! I can't allow Sonja to go alone with a stranger. She can handle herself but… I just can't. I don't know this Edward and I don't trust him. I stood up to follow until Sonja raised her hand to me. I had seen the gesture too many times. She wanted me to stay. I would just ignore it but if I did then she would only use her gift to make me stay. I sighed and shook my head in frustration. I was furious. If anything happens to her I will rip that Edward to pieces faster than he can say "Wait." As they left I sat on the couch and folded my arms. But I kept my ears wide open. The moment I hear something Wrong I'm charging. If they leave my hearing range or if he so much as makes her mad I'll kill him!

(Sonja POV)

I was a bit surprised when Edward asked me to speak in private, And about Rules? What rules could they possibly have? Anyway we were now outside just walking into the forest. Just walking, Then he began to speak. "We live our lives differently than most Vampires. We like to consider ourselves as vegetarians. We don't Drink human blood.." Then I interrupted him. "You don't drink human blood? At all?" Then he spoke again. "Not at all. We drink Animal blood." I nodded my head in an understanding way. It was understandable. I often felt bad for killing humans for their blood. I don't think I could purely live off of Animal blood for the rest of my life though.

Anyway to my surprise the Conversation quickly changed to a different subject as he spoke. "So, What made you suddenly decide to pay us a visit? How did you even know about us?" I didn't want to talk about it yet. I wanted to wait for the head of the coven to arrive first so we can talk about it all together at once. "Well, I think it best to wait for your… Father to return so we can all sit down and talk about it together." Then I heard him say under his breath. "The Volturi.." My eyes widened in anger and shock. "What was that?" I spoke in a serious tone. "You want our help to fight the Volturi.. You want Revenge for what they did to.." I cut him off immediately. Before he could finish his sentence I threw my hand in front of me and curled my fingers into a choking gesture. He went flying back by an unseen force and was pinned to the closest tree. He was 3 feet off the ground and his neck began to crack like glass the harder I used my gift to press to his throat. He struggled in shock and he reached to his throat in vain. I knew he had a gift. And his gift was mind reading. I know that now. Big mistake. No one invades my mind, NO ONE! I shouted at him as loud as I could in such anger. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
