This chapter is hilarious! I don't remember what inspired me to write this one but I love it. It takes place sometime after Hekate moves into the castle. I would love to hear how you guys react to this chapter!

Hekate hummed as Caius kissed her forehead, hugging her tightly. "We'll be back soon, my queen." He looked down at her and smiled softly, "Don't miss me too much?"

Hekate chuckled as she gently pushed him back from her, "I'll try." She then leaned up to kiss Aro gently, brushing her fingers over his cheek so he could read her thoughts. She thought about how much she would miss them but she also didn't want them to be late.

Aro smiled down at her, brushing her hair back from her face. "We won't be, cara mia."

Hekate sighed softly as she turned to Marcus, shaking her head. "You three act like mothers leaving their child."

Marcus smirked softly as he wrapped his arms around her, kissing the top of her head. "We enjoy your company too much and love you far too much to like being away from you." He then brushed his lips over hers, caressing her cheeks. "But we know you do not like to be smothered. That's why we agreed to have a meeting outside the castle."

Hekate blushed softly as she smiled at her mates, "I appreciate it. I do. It's nice to have some time to myself. I'll probably read my new book and draw a bubble bath."

Caius rolled his eyes at Marcus, "I told you she'd have it read by tomorrow."

Aro laughed softly as Marcus only raised an eyebrow at Marcus. "Come now, let's go, brothers." They all waved goodbye to Hekate before leaving the throne room. Almost half the guard left with the kings of course.

Hekate waited until the kings would be out of the castle and too far to hear anything. She then turned to her guard, smirking wickedly. "They're gone." She then turned to the rest of the coven members in the room. "I need to talk to my guard in privacy. Would you all please retire to your quarters? If any of you wish to go outside you may go."

Demetri looked uneasily at the twins beside him and then back at his queen. Hekate didn't have any business to attend to, not that he knew of at least. Especially not where she needed total privacy. "What are we doing now?"

Hekate turned to Jane, "Can you get the bag please, Jane?" She smiled when Jane quickly left to do so, Alec staying with Hekate. "We're going to do some redecorating."

Demetri tried his best not to groan, hating when the kings wanted to redecorate. Marcus never bothered but Caius and Aro? They redecorated a lot. Not to mention the women in the coven. Athenadora and Sulpicia's projects still made him shudder.

Hekate laughed when she noticed Alec look nervous and Demetri looked petrified. "Only the thrones, boys." She smiled brightly at Jane when she reappeared, a bag in her hand. Jane disappeared again, going to retrieve the rest.

Alec looked down and saw glitter, sequins, beads, feathers and more craft supplies in the bags. He then slowly grinned, looking up at his queen. "We're re-decorating the Kings thrones?"

Demetri laughed when he spotted the pints of paint Jane was holding when she arrived again. She had hot pink, royal purple, neon green, black and white paint. "I am so ready for this."

Hekate handed a roll of garbage bags to Alec. "Would you be a dear and place there around the thrones so we don't ruin the floor?"

Alec smiled softly up at her, "Of course, Hekate." He quickly began spreading the bags down over the floor and around the thrones, making sure no inch of marble was visible.

Hekate then turned to Demetri as Jane opened the cans of paint, "I'll paint the thrones and then you can each work on one of the thrones. I'll help everyone after I'm done painting." She pointed to Caius' throne since his was closest. "Caius' throne is going to be pink. I'm going to paint princess on it as well once the paint dries. He also gets a pretty tiara on his." She snickered as she pulled out the children's tiara out of the bag.

Alec raised his hand, "I want this one."

Hekate pointed at him, "You got it."

Hekate then turned to Jane, smiling, "Do you want Aro's?"

Jane nodded her head, smirking. "Of course."

Hekate placed everything she was going to use for Caius' throne in front of it. She then began placing everything for Aro's down. "His is going to be pink with black zebra stripes and say wild child."

Jane smirked as she picked up the silver glitter, her eyes imagining the new paint scheme. "I love it."

Hekate then placed the bag by Marcus' throne, passing her own new throne. "Finally, Demetri, Marcus' theme is flower power." She held up a bag of fake flowers up for him to see, "I also want a flower crown to be on his."

Demetri held the bag and looked the flowers over, laughing. "They're going to be so mad."

Hekate laughed, rubbing her hands together. "Oh, I know. It's going to be hilarious. They've been so serious lately."

Hekate stood with the three guards beside her, looking at their masterpieces. It was glorious and they really outdid themselves. All three thrones were so bright if almost hurt your eyes to look at them, if you were human.

Marcus' throne was softer than the others but Marcus was a sweet guy. It still was hilarious to think of a Volturi King sitting in any of those thrones. Marcus' throne was neon green with dark green glitter sprinkled on the paint when it was wet, that way the glitter was stuck on there better. Demetri even painted little flowers in a lighter shade of green, right on the armrests. The words 'Flower Power' were in white and in a flowy script. The flower crown Demetri made was resting on the top of the throne, hanging on an edge. The flower crown had red roses and their vines wrapped around some metal. It was very pretty, Hekate was probably taking it for herself after this.

Aro's throne was ridiculous and the most obnoxious, though Caius' would disagree if he could see his at the moment. Aro's throne was hot pink with black 'zebra' stripes on the top. Jane had also gone crazy with the silver glitter. The armrests were absolutely covered in it so barely any pink showed. The seat also had glitter in a zebra pattern, something Hekate loved. She could just imagine the glitter on his ass after he sat down. The words 'Wild Child' were also boldly written, almost in a rock font.

Caius' throne was royal purple and had glitter sprinkled over the whole throne so it glittered when the light hit it or when one moved. Alec had also placed the word 'princess' just right. Caius liked to lean into the left corner of the throne, sitting cross legged. Alec remembered just where his head hit, writing the words over where his head would be. The child's princess crown was placed on the left side of the throne, right where his head was usually resting.

Hekate rubbed her hands together, laughing darkly. "Oh, I can't wait for this."

Demetri was excited but also nervous. Aro would find out they all did this. He didn't want to think about what their punishments would be. Though, maybe seeing their reactions would be worth it…

Alec and Jane were holding hands, admiring the others work and smirking darkly with their queen. They knew they would all get in trouble but it would be worth it. They would have to have one of the lower coven members take pictures when the kings arrived.

Hekate looked at her phone, realizing Marcus had texted her. "Shit. They're almost back." She turned to her guard, a shit-eating grin on her face. "Now, we all act cool, okay? It's going to be hard but we can do this. We're the best in this whole coven."

Alec, Jane and Demetri all smirked at their queen before schooling their features. Alec and Jane looked like peaceful children while Demetri had a stoic model vibe going on. Hekate took in a few deep, unnecessary, breaths to calm herself. She then relaxed her face muscles. She went to the second waiting room, where their receptionist sat. She leaned back in one of the couches, picking up her book and began reading.

Jane and Alec sat on another couch while Demetri talked quietly with the receptionist, loving to tease her by flirting with the woman. The woman didn't mind at all since Demetri was nice and very handsome.

Aro's shoulders finally relaxed when they pulled up to the church. "Finally!"

Marcus sighed at his brother's impatience but didn't say anything. He himself was anxious to get back to their mate. Their meeting had been very taxing. They had learned of a group of nomad vampires making trouble around Australia and the tourist trap islands. The vampires in the area felt that they weren't capable of taking them out, asking for help from the Volturi.

Caius was very happy at being able to fight someone again, nearly ready to go when the meeting was over. However, he was also ready to be home. He missed his mate and wanted to tell her about the rogue vampires. He was sure she would want to go with him. She had a hell of a mean streak when it came to 'evil' vampires as she called them. He would have to bring this up to Aro and Marcus later as they didn't seem interested in taking out the vampires.

The three kings walked behind three guard members, the others behind them. They were almost through the tunnel leading to the second waiting room, right outside the throne room. The closer they got, the stronger Hekate's scent was. That made all three kings' paces increase.

Aro was the first to exit the hidden doorway, smiling brightly when he spotted Hekate. She was laid back on a couch, reading her book. She was almost finished, judging by the number of pages on the left side. She glanced up and smiled softly, placing her book on the coffee table. "There you three are."

Aro was stunned by the beauty of her smile, feeling himself melt. This of course let Caius speed to her side, curling up against her. "Hello, love. How has your day been?"

Hekate smiled at Caius, kissing his cheek gently. "It's been boring honestly. Though, I have been able to almost finish my book."

Marcus moved behind the couch, gently tilting her head to kiss her. He hummed when she deepened the kiss. He gently pushed her down, laughing softly. "I'm glad you enjoy your present so much."

Aro got tired of waiting, picking Hekate up and hugging her gently. He buried his face in her neck, breathing in her scent. "I missed you."

Hekate gently rubbed his back, though she made sure he wasn't touching her skin. She had also placed on gloves and a jacket to ensure this. "I missed you too." She turned to the others who moved beside her. "I miss you as well. How was your meeting?" She slowly began heading to the throne room doors as she talked, acting casual.

Jane and Alec stood by the doors, waiting with angelic smiles on their faces.

Caius spoke up first, looking down at his mate as he began explaining the situation. Hekate could see the excitement and blood thirst in his eyes, it turned her on just a little bit. Hekate looked back to see Marcus and Aro watching her, their eyes showing how happy they were. They weren't looking up, which was what Hekate wanted though.

Jane and Alec opened the doors, bowing their heads as their rulers passed them by.

Aro smiled at the twins, the ones who were almost like his own children. "Dear ones…" He glanced at his mate, "It's been a long day, cara mia, why don't we-" He paused when something caught his eye. He turned at the raised floor and gasped loudly. His gasp caused almost everyone in the room to tense, until they saw what caused it. Caius turned as well, his jaw dropping from what he saw. Marcus wasn't much better, though he had a grin slowly forming on his face.

Aro moved closer to his throne, the thrones he spent so long going over the plans for. The beautiful pieces of furniture he commissioned. His very own throne looked… looked… ridiculous! It looked like it belonged to a 90's punk girl. He ran his hands over the armrests, grimacing as glitter clung to his skin. "Che cazzo è?1"

Caius slowly stalked to his throne, and did he stalk. He looked like someone insulted Hekate with how sour his expression was. His whole body was tense, his muscles flexing underneath the skin. He was the king of the Volturi! A king! Not a… a princess? It was absurd! He also loathed how the cheap girlish crown hung where his head usually rested. He picked up the toy and bent the metal in his hands, growling. He growled louder when he noticed the glitter on his hands now and all over his throne. "Figlio di puttana!2"

Marcus approached his throne, noticing the fine artwork done on his. The glitter flowers were a nice touch. He chuckled a little at 'flower power'. It was a very hippy vibe which fit him at times. He picked up his flower crown, grimacing only when he noticed the glitter now on his hands and cloak.

Hekate was watching all of this happen, smirking when she heard clicks meaning someone was taking pictures of this. She would need those printed and in her photo album. She heard Aro and Caius cussing under their breath, her amusement and joy bursting free finally. She leaned over, one arm over her stomach while the other was on her knee. She was laughing so loudly, venom collected in her eyes and threatened to spill over.

Demetri, Alec and Jane smirked but held back their laughter, able to see how pissed two of the kings were.

Caius turned to Hekate slowly, his anger dying a little but only slightly. "You? You did this?!" His voice was booming now, his temper flaring.

Hekate's laughter stopped when she realized Caius realized what happened. She wiped at her eyes, smirking at her lovers. "Mhmm. Don't you like them? I worked really hard on them."

Aro motioned to his throne, looking distraught, "There are very old and works of art! The man who made this is dead! I'm going to have to commission a new set!" He then groaned as he noticed the glitter on his skin, shaking his hands. "Now there's glitter all over me!"

Caius growled more, "What made you think this would be acceptable?"

Marcus moved over to Caius, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Caius, she - "

Caius cut him off, shrugging his hand of as well. "She what, thought this would be funny?"

Hekate chuckled at them again, "Yes. It's hilarious. Your faces when you saw them was priceless and I'm never going to forget this." She then pouted at Caius, "I even got a tiara for you, princess. Marcus is wearing his flower crown."

Caius glanced at Marcus to see he was indeed wearing a flower crown. That image was just too comical, his anger leaving him then. He began to see what Hekate did, realizing it was just a prank. He chuckled before motioning to Marcus. "Maybe we should commission a new crown for you brother, something more flowery to match your spirit."

Marcus smirked back at him, "Only if we can get a tiara for you, brother."

Aro huffed at them, turning to Hekate, "Why didn't I get one?"

Hekate approached them then, a big smile on her face. She caught the tiara Jane threw her, placing it on Aro's head. "I knew you'd break it, like someone." Caius looked down at his crushed tiara and laughed nervously.

Aro chuckled when he saw what his tiara looked like. It was pink and had zebra stripes as well. "Oh wow, it's so gorgeous." He was obviously being sarcastic but playing along with her.

Hekate then played her last card. She quickly winked at her guard who had been slowly approaching her.

Demetri quickly ran around Marcus, sprinkling the last of the green glitter on his head. Jane did the same to Aro while Alec had to nearly sprint past Caius, too afraid of him. They didn't wait for the kings to react, running out of the throne room and into the castle. Hekate didn't wait either, laughing as she ran away.

Aro looked down as glitter fell to the floor, slowly reaching up to feel his hair. He groaned when he felt his hair covered with the stuff. He then looked at his brothers, seeing their expressions turn from amusement to vengeful. "Brothers, let's pay our dear mate back, shall we?"

Caius smirked, looking just as evil as people thought he was. Only he wasn't going to kill anyone, he was just going to find his mate and punish her.

Marcus spotted the craft bag, hidden behind Hekate's throne. He pulled out the last bag of glitter, a bag of silver glitter by chance. "Shall we?"

Hekate screamed when she heard her mates start running after her, running for her life it felt like. She had made it to the garden and was almost over the wall when they caught her.

The Volturi members were all staring at each other with mixed expressions. Some were very confused. A lot were amused and a lot looked like they were dreading their lives.

They all knew what this meant.

Hekate had just started a war and the Volturi Kings never lost a battle.
