The coven came into the throne room.
"What is so important that you had to interrupt us trying to calm our mate down?" Caius demanded.
"My lords, there is a huge newborn army in France. They are attacking humans in their homes."
"Alec, Felix, check it out. Bring Jane and Demetri with you."
"Yes master."
They left the room. The three brothers walked to my room.
"How has she been?" Aro asked Heidi.
"According to Jane, she fell asleep instantly."
"The ball is in 5 days. Could you go and make sure you sent invites to everyone?"
"Of course master."
She walked out of the room.
"Marcus, was she hurt?"
"She said she wasn't hurt. She was afraid you would be angry."
"What? Why?"
"Because she killed your main guard."
He looked at me and smiled. He then stroked the top of my head. He bent down and kissed my forehead. The next morning, I walked to the rose garden. Hermione was sitting by the roses.
"Anything wrong, Hermione?"
"I miss Demetri."
Dad and the others came in.
"Trixie, we heard about last night. Are you all right?"
"Don't bring it up. I feel bad as it is."
"Trixie-"
"I said don't bring it up!"
I ran to the waterfall room and sat down. Jane came in.
"Trixie?"
"My life is turning upside down."
"You did nothing wrong, Trixie."
Aro came in. I ran into his arms.
"I'm-"
"Don't say it mi amore. You did the right thing."
"But she was your main guard."
"You come first, my dear. She threatened you and you reacted to it."
I was crying in his arms. He held me against him. Hermione's parents came in.
"Aro, your-"
"Richard, he's busy. Let's go." Helen said.
They went to the throne room.
"He's calming Trixie down in the waterfall room."
"She needs him right now." Marcus said.
"I can see that. She killed his main guard. He's the only one who can calm her down right now." Caius said.
Music played in the waterfall room. Aro started to dance with me.
"Feeling better, mi amore?"
"A little."
"You are more important than our guard. We love you."
I leaned my head against his shoulder.
"I know."
I pushed him into the water and ran. He jumped out and caught me. He lifted me up and tossed me into the water. He then jumped in.
"You do realize you caught me off guard, right?"
"Was the powerful Volturi king scared of little old me?"
I swam away and he swam after me.
"Got you. I should shackle you for making fun."
I put my wrists together. I then giggled and swam away. Hermione and Demetri came in.
"She suckered you in, huh?"
"Actually, she pushed me in."
Hermione pushed Demetri in. But he pulled her in with him. Marcus and Caius finally joined us. Caius wasn't going to come in. But I snook up on him and pushed him in.
"I'm going to get you for that."
"Come on Blondie, if you think you can catch me."
He started to chase me.
