Lily pov
Laying on the bed I sigh feeling Emma on top of me, wrapping my arms around her I smile tracing my fingers over her spine "why's Bella's scent changed?" I finally ask.
"Edward tried stopping her change but only slowed it, Victoria's putting in slam traces of her venom in because she's the only one that can understand James mind"
Humming I nod pressing my face to her hair, hearing her sigh I chuckle "we ditched out on the bonfire".
"That's fine, everyone knew it would happen" Emma mutters before pressing kisses to my neck.
Smirking I flip us so Emma's under me before trailing kisses down her neck, reaching her chest I growl hearing banging on the door "alright you two, that's enough get dressed and get out here" Charlie orders.
Huffing I see Emma blushing and move up kissing her before moving to find my clothes, reaching the living room I frown seeing Jacob hanging up the phone.
"Where's Charlie?" I ask not hearing him anywhere.
"The funeral dinner, I'm supposed to tell you to go see your friends"
"Who was on the phone?" I ask suspiciously.
"Wrong number"
Gritting my teeth I stalk forward narrowing my eyes at him "you need to get over this obsessive infatuation with Bella because it's not happening, now who was on the fucking Phone and do not lie or I will put your face through the wall, and ruin that pretty smile by ripping your fucking teeth out one at a time".
Hearing Bella come down the stairs she frowns looking at us before the front door opens and Alice comes in looking around franticly.
Hearing her explain about the call I yank my hand back hitting Jake in the face knocking him over Charlie's chair to the floor before I grab Alice's hand stopping her from grabbing Bella.
"She's not going anywhere with you unless we go with her" I snap.
"She has to save him and you can't come" she snaps.
"Then he can die, I'm not going with you and I won't go anywhere without my sisters" Bella says.
"Fine just let's go now" she eventually huffs pouting.
"Emma, call Leah and the twins tell them we need them here now" I say ignoring Alice whining about needing to hurry.
Once they reach us I raise my brow smirking "we are coming back before Monday morning even if the issue hasn't been settled".
Sometime later
Stepping out of the car at hearing Alice say where Bella has to go Emma, Leah and her get out ignoring Alice's protests as I calmly walk with them following.
Jane and Alec ran ahead of us to alert the queens so I doubt they don't know we're here, seeing him going to step out I walk faster grabbing his throat shoving him back into the shadows.
Hearing him calling to Bella I keep a hold of him while waiting for the twins to show up, once Jane comes up after two guys I roll my eyes hearing Edward try to talk his way out of this and get Bella ignored.
"Oh, now you're worried about her? It's your own damn fault she's here" Leah snaps.
Hearing him snarl I tighten my hold before shoving him back to the largest vampire "let's go deal with this already, we have more important things to do then deal with these delusional bitches" I grunt while grabbing Alice forcing her to come.
Reaching the throne room I follow Jane in while Emma holds my hand and Bella holds my shirt with Leah behind Bella as protection "I see my guests have arrived with new faces" one of the queen's says smirking.
Glancing to Emma I frown before she nods towards the woman speaking "Lady Sulpicia, I've heard my family speak of you after your visit".
Watching her step down holding her hand out I raise my brow put place my hand on hers till she laughs looking at me "that is truly amazing, I expect to see how this story ends" she eventually says giggling.
"Of course" I say managing to keep myself respectful "however, after Alice and Edward's numerous actions against my family I want them punished including their leader" I finally say.

Seeing the guards dragging Edward and Alice out I roll my eyes at their protesting before the doors slam closed.
"We have to leave before Monday, Lily and Leah have to return for their training" I finally say.
Being ignored by them I roll my eyes moving over to Jane leaning on the wall as Leah and Bella follow me.
"What's going to happen?" I ask.
"Difficult to say, Queen Athenodora will demand death, Queen Didyme will want to keep them alive, Queen Sulpicia will have finally vote if she doesn't agree with either Queen then they deliberate till they can come up with something they all agree on"
"Wonderful" I snark.
"Jane, please escort our guest to a room Heidi has returned with lunch, we wouldn't want someone to mistake the two witches as humans in a frenzy" one of the Queens says.
Being led out I see Lily glaring at Jane "I thought you fed from bags?" She hisses.
"For the most part yes, that would be considered home cooked meals to us, while feeding from a human is more like a restaurant or carry out"
"So you just lure people in?" I ask confused.
"No, we had a connection to a few prisons for years they send us death row inmates or those who got life that don't get visitors or mail, the occasion rapists or abusers sometimes they've sent people who we end up changing but it's not to often and only if it's someone who's crimes were forgiveable even if they were repeat offenders"
Nodding Lily sighs relaxing slightly as we're led to a room "this is Queen Sulpicia's personal drawing room make yourself comfortable" she says before leaving.
Glancing at Leah she huffs sitting down "Leah?" I ask worried she may be upset about this.
"Don't give me that look Swan, if they want to eat those kinds of people I say fuck it and have at it, plus they help manage over population and make more room for other prisoners that deserve to be in there" she says scoffing at me.
Nodding I open my mouth to say something only for the door to open and to see a red haired older woman with another two women pushed in, one with black hair pinned up and the other with wild curly hair like a mane on a lion that's a mix of light brown and blond before the door closes and locks.
"Ma?" The curly haired one says motioning to the door.
"We wait, never make a move without knowing the enemy" the older one says with a slight Russian accent.
Looking at Lily she frowns till the curly haired woman looks at me and smiles coming over introducing herself as Nichols.
Raising my brow I glance at the other two seeing the dark haired woman huff pouting at her "nice to meet you?" I finally say sounding like a question.
