"Ahh Isabella it's so good of you to join us."Aro said as Isabella walked into the throne room dressed in her black girl was the only vampire to wear the color as even the royals wore the same red as the royal guard. Aro had initially balked at the idea but he realized it was better to let it go than pick a fight over something as minor as a didn't want to seem petty to his brother and his mate either. Aro knew that they compared him to a spoiled child and wished to change their opinion of feared if he didn't they would eventually get fed up with him and kill him.

"It's good to see you as well uncle."Isabella took a knee before the kings.

"Please rise know that you don't have to do that."Marcus told her.

"I don't wish to publicly insult any of you by showing disrespect."Isabella said as she stood.

"Leave her alone she wishes to kneel then you should let her kneel."Aro liked that Isabella did because it gave everyone a reminder that the kings had power over the newborn.

"It is you who will kneel before her if you insist she do it again."Caius hissed. He appreciated Isabella's actions but didn't want her to defer to anyone but him and even hated it when she did what Jane and Alec told her to."Now Isabella the next time you are before us you are to stand tall and proud. Especially if there are others in the room."

"Yes, father." Isabella honestly didn't want to kneel anyway she just did it because it was protocol for everyone to do so.

Aro held his objections when he noticed the glare Caius was sending his was almost like his brother was daring him to go against however would since Isabella had been turned Aro had chosen his words and requests carefully. It wasn't because he was trying to be a better person, he was just deathly afraid of knew that if given the order she would kill not only him but his mate,Marcus and Didyme as well and there wasn't a thing any of them could do about sending the entire guard after her would just slow her down and with Alec and Jane on her side they wouldn't even need Caius and Athenodora's was the first time Aro felt real fear for his life because although he was still a king he truly had little control over anything anymore.

"Then it's settled. Isabella will not kneel before us."Aro said."Now I'm sure you are curious about the reason we called you here."

"Yes uncle."Isabella had tried to figure it out but couldn't imagine why they would need to have a private audience with her in the throne room.

"Well there is an issue with one of the animal drinking covens in America."Aro told her.

"The Cullens or the Denali?"Isabella asked.

Caius sneered."The Cullens."

"I see."Isabella hoped that they were going to give her permission to eliminate the coven.

"Yes, it seems that they killed a vampire that was after their human pet and left his mate mate a vampire named Victoria has created a newborn army to destroy the coven. The last numbers we have received of the number of newborns she has is think she will act soon because of how hard it is to control them."Aro explained.

"What does this have to do with me?"Isabella asked.

"We have decided to send you with the guard to eliminate the newborns and bring the lawbreakers back to the castle."Caius smirked at the look of delight that overcame Isabella's had never seen his daughter smile so brightly before.

Isabella was beyond excited for the opportunity to go on a mission."Who will be coming with me?"

"We are sending Jane, Felix, Demetri and five other guards."Aro told was trying hard to mask the fact that he was feeling very uncomfortable with the look on Isabella's face. Even Jane never showed so much delight when told about a mission.

"That's not all."Caius said."We have told the others that you can fight the army by will only interfere if you need help or if anyone tries to flee."

"Really?!"Isabella couldn't believe she was being offered the chance.

"Yes, really."Marcus smiled at the happiness he felt coming off of Isabella in waves. It was at times like these he was reminded of the precocious child he used to catch climbing the shelves in the library trying to find books to had fond memories of spending time with Isabella reading and tutoring her on vampire history and law.

"I have to tell Jane."Isabella knew her sister would be just as happy as she was about the situation.

Knowing that he lost his child's attention Caius dismissed her."You go and do will call you and the guard back to go over the plan once we have everything set up for you to leave."

"Thank you father."Isabella rushed up the stairs to Caius' throne and kissed him on the cheek."This is going to be so great."

"It's good to see her so happy."Marcus commented.

"It is."Caius agreed standing from his seat."I'm going to go meet up with my want to go over the fight Isabella had before we came here."

Aro flinched thinking about the many members of the guard that had been hoped that they would be able to save even just half of them but he wasn't counting on it."We will see you later."

"Yes, I want to know how her feeding is going."Marcus said.

Aro waited until he knew Caius was out of hearing range before he spoke."She's going to kill us all one day."

"No she won't."Marcus knew Aro feared he was going to be killed but Marcus wasn't concerned.

"She will if Caius or Athenodora tell her to do it."Aro was sure of it.

"Is this why you have been acting so weird?You are afraid to upset them?"Marcus asked.

"I'm not acting weird.I'm being girl will be what ends our my words."Aro told him.

Marcus rolled his eyes."Are you planning on trying to control her or use her for your own gain?"

"No of course not."Aro wanted to but there was no way that would happen.

"I think if you remind yourself that she is off limits then you are fine. I recommend you let up on Jane and Alec as 's obvious that you are trying to flaunt your control of them but if you continue then I fear your worries will come to fruition."Marcus warned. It had been obvious to those in the castle that Aro was trying to keep the twins on a tight leash and Marcus knew that eventually Isabella would get tired of it. What would happen when she did Marcus didn't know but it probably wouldn't be good for Aro.

"Jane and Alec are I treat them is no one else's business. Even Isabella's."Aro ground out through gritted teeth.

"Remember brother it's her wrath that you are trying to avoid."Marcus may not think Isabella would kill them but he wasn't naive enough to believe she wouldn't hurt them if they displeased her. Patting Aro on the shoulder Marcus stood from his throne and made his way towards the royal quarters.

Aro watched him go lost in his own thoughts. He had sired both Jane and Alec. That meant they were bonded to him. Since the sibling bond was so rare they weren't exactly sure how it affected those involved especially now that Isabella was a vampire. Aro was of the belief that the sire bond was more powerful than the sibling bond but maybe Marcus was right. Even if Jane and Alec were his they had a very powerful entity in their corner. Aro shrugged it off. Isabella may have been bonded to them but in the end the twins were his to keeping that control meant that he sent them away from the castle to keep them away from Isabella it was his right to do it. They should count themselves lucky that he was even allowing Isabella to go on the mission with Jane.
