Bella's pov

I got up quickly and got ready. Throwing my long, wavy, irritating hair into a bun. Threw on some clothing and put my Id badge on. I looked in the mirror quickly, the dark spots under my eyes have lightened, not really surprising though. I haven't gotten that much sleep in a long time.

I go downstairs seeing Carlisle is already waiting for me. I just follow him to the car.

"You're quiet" he said

"I don't know what to say"

"How does the girl who passes out at the sight of her own blood become a doctor" he smiled almost as if he wanted to laugh

"Maybe hanging around vampires got me over that" I chuckled after saying that.

It was just a normal uneventful day until around noon at least. But wasn't eventful for professional reasons but personal.

It was around noon when my phone rang. It was Esme. She usually never called during the work day unless if it was urgent. I picked up.

"They summoned you"

"What are you talking about" I was very confused

"The Voltori summoned you. I was checking the mail. It also says to bring the human. They found out"

"Hey we'll talk about this when we get home"

I walked to Bella unsure of what to say

"You look stressed"

"We need to talk. I'll go into more detail later but I think I should prepare you for what conversations will happen once we get home"

"Am I in trouble or something"

"Did Edward ever mention the Voltori to you"

"Not really. I know that they are in Italy and about the painting in your office in Forks. That's really it"

"Well, they are kind of similar to royalty. Make sure all the rules are being followed and if they think someone isn't they can summon them"

"All the way to Italy"

"Yes, Esme got a letter in the mail that summoned both me and you to them. They know about you"

"Is that a bad thing"

"One of the rules is not to tell our secret. At the time I didn't think much of it when you found out"

"Why not"

"I was sure you'd eventually become one of us, so I didn't think much of it."

At the time I was willing to give my life to Edward. So many close calls to death when I was around him. I didn't care because I loved him. I did fantasize about being a vampire at the time, but I haven't in a long time.

"Should I be worried"

"We will talk more about it later. I don't want to freak you out too much right now"

The rest of my day my mind was somewhere else. I know he noticed but it be weird if he didn't accept it. For what felt like days later but in reality, was only a few hours, it was time to leave.

The car ride home was silent. When we pulled up to the driveway and walked in. Esme was waiting for us. We all sat down.

"What should I be worried about? I know there's something with your response"

" They aren't known for taking this very lightly. I don't know what the outcome will be but it's definitely not a slap on the wrist"

"There's also no way to lie. Aro can see a stream of memories just by a single touch" Esme added

"You should probably get some rest, you have a long flight in the morning"

The next day

Not really sure what to think. I feel like when Carlisle was talking about it, he didn't have high hopes. A became a doctor just to get thrown into vampire drama again.

I didn't bother doing my hair other than brushing through it. I only really put it up like that so it doesn't get in my way at work. I put on some sweatpants and a hoodie. Planes are always so cold. I packed some nicer clothing to change into when we got there, not that it help my case any.

I went downstairs and then we went to the airport.
