The morning of the ball, Jane came in.

"I only have eight hours. So go in and take a shower."

So I did. I was out fifteen minutes later. Hermione was already in a chair. Jane was outside keeping Demetri out.

"Is Jane always this way?" Hermione asked.

"Just wait until you get married. I heard she wakes you up at 3am to get you ready."

She giggled. Jane came in.

"Good, you're out. Let's get started."

She started buffing and shining us. That took a half hour. At 4pm, I was ready. I had to go to the throne room. Demetri was escorting me.

"You look beautiful, Lady Trixie."

"Thank you, Demetri. You don't have to call me Lady Trixie."

"I do when there are other covens here."

I smiled. We walked into the throne room. Aro was talking to Marcus.

"Wow." Caius said.

They stopped talking and looked toward the doors. They smiled and walked down.

"You are gorgeous, mi amore."

I smiled. They escorted me to my throne.

"Felix, please go and escort Ms. Granger to the throne room." Marcus said.

"Yes master."

He left the throne room. He was back fifteen minutes later.

"Wow." Demetri said.

Hermione blushed. Demetri ran over.

"Hello lover boy." Hermione said.

Demetri led her to a chair.

"I have to go and introduce the other covens. Don't worry; they know not to eat you or your parents."

Hermione slapped him and giggled. The Cullens were brought in first. Emmett saw me.

"Wow. My little sis is smokin'!"

I blushed. The three brothers chuckled. Then the Denali coven was introduced. One of them glared at me. I shivered. Aro glared back. She hung her head.

"Where are Chelsea and Renata?"

"They tried to attack Lady Trixie last week. So they were killed." Felix said.

"Don't bring it up tonight. You will not like the consequences if you do." Jane said.

The music started to play. Marcus stood up and offered his hand. I took it and he led me to the dance floor. Demetri then brought Hermione up and Felix brought Jane up. Then the others started to dance. I danced with almost everyone. But then I was tired. At midnight, the ball was over.

"The ball has now ended. There are rooms available for anyone who wishes to stay the night. But I must stress that there are three humans in this palace. You are not to touch them or harm them. If any harm comes to them, the person responsible will be sentenced to torturous death." Aro said.

Hermione and her parents were surprised. I fell asleep in Caius' lap. Marcus lifted me up and brought me to my quarters. Jane helped me change and I crawled back into bed.

"So, did you have fun?" Marcus asked.

I shook my head. They were confused.

"I had the time of my life."

They chuckled at my enthusiasm. I fell asleep with my head on Caius' lap. But then they heard voices.

"The masters are with their mate. They are not to be bothered."

Aro walked out of the room.

"What is going on here?"

"I'm sorry master. I tried to stop them. They were trying to destroy the gardens and the waterfall room." Jane said.

"You are to leave this palace. If we ever see you here again, we will kill you faster than you can think the words destroy."

The man left as quickly as he came.
