$Bella POV$

The flight was long as hell and annoying, I was grateful that Peter thought to place an iPod in the bag with all the kind of music I love. I just got off of the plane and was wondering where to go next so I sat down at a table in a small cafe in the airport and looked in the magic bag to see where it lead to. I had an idea where I was going the vampire's I've been with have always talked about the royal vampires here in Italy but I'm not sure exactly where they are.

I looked in the white folder again and there was a brochure to a rental car place and another one for a tour of the Volturi castle. The picture of the castle was circled with red sharpie. I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and laid my head down on the table.

I sighed, got up and left the café. I walked around for a while wondering what to do next and what I was looking for. I was about to walk into a car rental place when I saw a woman standing in a short red dress with a sign the said 'Volturi tours here' and the closer I got the more I knew she wasn't human. I could see her granite pale skin and blood red eyes. I mentally smirked at myself this was going to be easy.

"Take me to him" I said to her she looked shocked but then covered it up with that cold calm mask all vampires have.

"To whom?" she asked confused.

"Aro and the others" I said confident.

"I don't know what you're talking about but I can take you on t tour of volturi if you'd like" she said.

"You lying bitch, I know you know what I'm talking about and I know what you are" I started getting pissed off. I hate when people try to play games with me.

She opened and closed her mouth a few times and then she kept looking at something or someone over my shoulder. I felt a cold presence behind me and I knew a vampire was behind me, headed toward me. When the sensation was the strongest I swung around, putting my full weight into my fist; I knew it would hurt me more than the vampire but I wasn't going down without a fight. Just as my fist was about to hit the side of his head my hand stopped some one was holding my wrist and I was looking into blood red eyes.

"Well what do we have here? you're a quick one aren't you?" He raised and eyebrow "smell good to" He took my wrist that was in his hand and ran his nose along it.

"Want a taste?" I asked with and raised an eyebrow to challenge his, he chuckled.

"I like her" He said looking over my shoulder to the girl that was trying to lie to me. "Can we keep her?" He asked her like I was some puppy he found on the street.

"No, she knows too much we need to get rid of her" she hissed.

"I would like to speak to Aro" I said looking at the male vampire, he reminded me of Emmett. He was buff, maybe even bigger then Emmett and had short black hair.

"Ok Heidi, just watch her while I go get the car" He said and then walked away at a fast human pace. Heidi sighed, she started walking in the direction that the male went and I fallowed.

"So why are you even here?" She asked with curiosity.

"Some unfinished business" I said in a stiff tone. She raised an eyebrow but didn't push. By now we were almost out side and I could see the male vampire standing by the doors.

"It looks like Heidi didn't eat you, so that's a good sign" He smiled and laughed at his own joke, I did too. "I'm Felix by the way" He stuck his hand out at vampire speed and I flinched thinking that he was going to hit me. it was just a reflex I had learned with Damon and the others. I never did it with Peter or even Jasper and I have no Idea why, I mean I could understand why not with Peter since we got along and he was like a brother but with Jasper I knew I should be afraid he treated me just like the others did but I couldn't bring myself to be scared, maybe more than a little pissed of but not scared. Felix saw me flinch and dropped his hand confusion crossed he face but he left it alone.

"Isabella or Izy" I muttered and his smile brightened a bit.

"Izy it is" he nodded and we started walking to the black suv.

The drive was quite with the occasional question and me answering without as much detail as I could. We made it to Volterra a few hours later. The castle was beautiful and huge, bigger than I thought it would be. We drove through a gate and up a drive way and someone was waiting for our arrival. Felix and Heidi go out swiftly, I did the same. Felix came over to me while Heidi was talking to the person that was waiting for us. Felix led me to where Heidi and the mystery vamp where. Heidi was talking at vampire speed with the vamp about me. Living with vampires as long as I have I could make out most of what they where saying.

"I don't know; she came to us in the airport" Heidi said to him.

"Why didn't you just kill her there?" He asked a little irritated.

"Because, that would be a huge loss to you and I don't go down without a fight" I smirked as his head whipped around with his jaw dropped. I could hear Felix chuckling behind me.

"That's why" Felix simply stated and started walking off toward the big double doors. "Come little one" He called over his shoulder to me.

After few hours of touring the castle Heidi showed me which room was mine and told me to get cleaned up, that Aro and the brothers would see me in two hours' time and she would bring me something to wear.

I stepped out of the shower and dried myself off. I walked into the room and laid out on the bed was a beautiful black dress for me; it had short sleeves and went to about mid thigh. I lifted it up and saw that it was completely backless. I hesitated only a second, I knew I was going to wear and I was going to show them who they are dealing with; that I am not just another human begging to be a vampire.

I smirked, dropped the towel and slipped the dress on. I walked over to a huge mirror on the wall and looked at myself. The neck line was a little low so you could see the scars on my neck and the few scattered ones. The back was open to my lower back and had a bow on the butt.

I grabbed a rubber band off of my wrist and tied my hair up in a messy yet elegant bun so it would show the scars on my back. When Heidi walked in she gasped as she saw my scars.

"How? " She started asking but I shook my head and smirked.

"Later" I said and winked. I noticed a bag in her hand.

"What's that?" I pointed to it.

"Makeup, I have to get you ready" She smiled and walked to me. She sat me on the vanity located on the far wall and did my makeup. She applied blood red lipstick and grey smoky eye shadow. After almost an hour I was finally ready, Heidi did an amazing job. I cocked my head to the side as I looked in the mirror, I could see the bites on my neck perfectly. I reached up and traced one of them, then I turned around and looked at my back. The dress show cased my 'wings' beautifully. For the first time I felt proud of them, for the first time in years I felt beautiful.

There was a knock at my door and Heidi let them in. A deep voice came from behind me and asked me if I was ready. It was familiar but I couldn't place it. I turned around and was a little shocked to see that it was the guy that I pretty much chewed out in the drive way earlier today. He had short black hair and was slightly muscular and was wearing a white dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up tucked into black dress pants.

"I didn't get a chance to introduce myself earlier, I am Demetri" He said wearing a sexy smirk and held out his hand.

"Isabella, nice to meet you" I took his hand and smirked back. "I like you a lot more when you're not talking about killing me when I'm right there" His smirk grew into a smile and so did mine.

"I really hope the brothers keep you, you would fit right in" He said with a chuckle.

"Come on, we have to get going. Aro doesn't like to be kept waiting!" Heidi said as she danced across the room in a gold sequence dress. I wondered if they dressed like this every night, I would have to get used to that. Demetri nodded, then hooked my arm in his and started out the door.

We walked the long halls and through huge doorways and finally got to two wooden doors. Heidi pushed them open, the room was huge with a few tables scattered throughout the room. The vampires were in beautiful dresses and slacks. Some lounged but most stood around and talked amongst themselves. Heidi went at vampire speed to one of the tables leaving me and Demetri. All eye where on me now that my scent filled the room.

I took a deep breath and slid my arm out of Demetris'. I straightened out my shoulders and started walking to the kings at the back of the room. I could hear the gasps from behind me as Demetri and some of the other vampires could see my scars now.

I reached the kings and bowed my head. I looked over the king who was in the middle; I could only assume he was Aro. He was no older than twenty eight, with short brown hair and wore a light grey suit. He looked a little surprised but had a smile on his lips.

The one to his right, I guessed was Caius, had long black hair that went to his shoulders. He looked confused and a little angry. He leaned over and whispered to Aro "Look at her neck. Have you ever seen something like this? She's still human!" That put a smirk on my lips.

The last king Marcus, he had blonde hair almost had long as Caius's and had to be in his early thirties. His intense gaze on me almost made my shiver, like he was trying to strip away all of the walls I had built around myself.

The room was so quite; there was not a sound until Aro spoke. "Welcome to Volterra IL mio Angelo, what can we do for you?" Aro spoke.

"I am Isabella and I have come to offer my assistance" I smirked as I heard the snikering and scoffs from behind me, then I heard someone say.

"But shes only a human" It was male voice form behind me at vampire speed. I spun around and looked at the direction of the voice.

"Oh really, cuz I thought I was a fairy" I said, looking the guy in the eye. He stumbled back a little bit like I had slapped him and I smirked trumphantly.

I completly froze when I felt an ice cold finger trace my back, I spun back around and Aro stood just inches infront of me. His cold breath blew across my face. His eyes bore into mine. He qiuckley grabbed my hand and closed his eyes. A few secounds later, his eyes shot open and his eyebrows scrunched.

"Why can't I see?" he whispered.

"If you ask nicely, I might let you see" I said with a smile that I knew didn't reach my eyes. At this he looked evern more confused.

I smiled at him and took his hand. I closed my eyes and slowly streached the rubberband that was around my mind to Aro, I wouldnt let him see everything but just enough. After my whole life story was done I let the band snap back.

My breathing was heavy, as was his. His eyes locked with mine again and there was a sence of sadness aswell as respect. I looked away then noticed the vampires that surronded us. The other brothers flanked Aro, a few other vampires were behind them looking like they were about to pounce on me. I lowered my head, images of Damon and my time there fresh in my mind. I lifted up my arm to the vampires infront of me and let my hand fall limply so that my wrist was in plane view and waited, waited for that firey burn of sharp teeth taering my skin.

I felt a cold hand grab mine and pull it forward, then I felt ice lips press to the pulse point on my wrist. I waited a few moments for the teeth but they never came. I slowly opened my eyes and Aros' red eyes locked onto mine, he looked so sad at that moment, then he straighened out never breaking eye contact.

"Isabella, have Demetri take you back to the room; get some rest. I have things to discuss with my brothers" He said in a quiet tone, then I felt something wet roll down my cheek, it had been a long time since I had shed tears and it had to be infront of the kings of vampires.

Aro reached up and wipped it away just as Demetri came to my side, he grabbed my hand and lead me out of the room. We walked the long hallways again. Demetri stayed quite and for that I was greatful. We got to the door of the room, before entering he kissed my cheek and wished me a good night. That I would definitley need.

I slipped into the door and leaned against it, the tears just started to stream down my faca. I was too tired to change so I just slipped the dress off, pulled my hair down and slipped into the bed. For the first time in years I cryed myself to sleep.
