LA REGINA DEI CIGNI | VOLTURI KINGS [1]

xiii.

Diana's POV

I was lying in bed, breathing heavily. After the trials yesterday, my mates flashed me to our room. We've been in here ever since. I agreed to spend the rest of the week with them. 

We decided to have individual time with each other. As much as we loved all of us being together. They liked to have one on one time with me.

First I was going to spend time with Caius. I got up and put clothes on. Once I was finished getting dressed, I looked over to Caius.

"You ready?" I asked

"Of course, mia bella," He smirked, flashing over to me and picking me up

"Caius!" I squealed at the sudden movement

He laughed and sped off to his art room. Once we arrived, he set me down, placing a kiss on my lips. I pouted, fake mad at him carrying me.

"You look cute when you do that," He stated, I blushed, "And that."

I slapped his chest playfully, "Shut up."

He sat down in the chair behind him, pulling me down on his lap as he did. "You know you love me," He teased

"I do," I softened, "I really do."

"And I love you," He brought me into a searing kiss

Once we finished our passionate kiss, I spoke, "So, what are we doing today?"

"I figured we could paint together," He explained, "You enjoyed it so much last time, I thought it would be a good way to spend time together."

"Of course, my warrior," I said, "That's a brilliant idea."

We began painting, enjoying being in each other's presence. I was painting me and my mates together in the garden. Roses and tulips bloomed around us and butterflies were scattered around us. I used different colors. Greens, blues, and reds being the main ones. 

As I continued painting, Caius was painting me. He always used me as his muse. He had chosen to paint my regal form. I was sitting on my throne with my crown on top of my head. I head a sophisticated aura around me.

We painted for hours, basking in having one another so close. About 5 hours later, my supposed time with Caius was over. Marcus burst into the room, exciting for his turn.

"My turn," He sang, happily

I stood up and walked over to Caius, placing a kiss on his lips, "I enjoyed our painting session but I'm afraid it is Marcus' turn. See you later, my warrior. I love you."

"See you later, mia bella. I love you too," He said, reluctantly

I walked toward Marcus. He held out his arm, smiling, "Shall we?"

"We shall," I smiled

We began our journey to his personal library. Whenever we spent time together, it was usually spent with him reading to me. His voice always soothed me, making me relax in his arms.

We reached the library in under a minute. He led me to the large chair we usually sat in. He sat down first, I climbed onto his lap and cuddled into his side. I nestled my face into the crook of his neck, inhaling his heavenly scent. He wrapped his arms around me, getting comfortable. 

He pulled out one of my favorite books. We had a tradition that every time we would come to the library to read, he would read me the Harry Potter books. We had read most of them. We were currently reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. It was my favorite series as a child and when I got here, Marcus hadn't even heard of it.

Me being me, I had to get him to read it. He agreed, happy to please me with such a simple demand. He had enjoyed it so far. He was furious when Cedric died. I always had a suspicion that he was a Hufflepuff. He may seem scary because he's a Volturi king but really he's just a soft cinnamon roll.

We were currently reading the part when Harry goes to the Department of Mysteries. I already knew what was coming but that didn't dull the pain of Sirius' death. Even though I knew, Marcus did not and his response was honestly a mood.

"What! No!" He exclaimed, "They just can't kill him off like that. He finally found a family! Harry just found his godfather! What the fuck was that! That J.K. Rowling person is evil!"

He was distraught. Sirius was his favorite character. Along with Remus. I'm kind of scared to see his reaction to Remus and Tonks' death.

We finished the book not long after. It took him a while to settle down. Once he did, Aro burst in claiming that he had waited long enough and that it was his turn.

After a quick goodbye and I love you's, I let Aro lead me to wherever he wanted. He led me to the gardens, among the flowers there was a table with plates of food on top of it. 

He ushered me to my seat, pulling it out for me to sit. He took his seat across from me. "Mia Cara, how was your day?" He asked

"It was wonderful. I painted with Caius and read with Marcus," I stated, "what about you?"

"It was good, better now that I'm with you," He smiled. He looked at the food in front of us, "I had the chef prepare a blood-infused pizza."

"Thank you, pizza was always one of my favorite human foods," I commented

"I remember. You had it delivered all of the time when you stayed here as a human," He joked

"It wasn't all of the time," I gasped

He laughed, "Sure, only twice a week."

"Okay. Maybe I ate pizza a lot but at least it was good," I defended

We had a laugh and ate our dinner. We strolled through the garden for a while. Since I had been home, I had been thinking about something frequently.

I looked up to Aro, "Can I speak to you about something?"

"Anything, mia cara," He answered immediately

"With the others?" I added

"Of course," He said

We flashed off to our room, finding the other two sitting in their chairs reading books. They looked up to us when we walked through the door. I motioned for them to sit on the bed. They did confusedly.

"So, when I was in Forks I found out something interesting," I started

"What is it?" Caius asked, worried at my actions

"I found out that I have to power to allow a vampire to have children," I explained, "I gave Emmett and Rosalie children."

They looked at me shocked. "Which means that I also can have children..." I drew out nervously, taking a deep breath before continuing, "and I was wondering if you would want to have children. with me?"

They were silent, still looking at me wide-eyed. I began to grow more nervous, so I stuttered out sadly, "O-or not. It w-was a stupid idea. I understand."

Marcus was the first to break out of his shock, immediately calming me down, "Of course we would want children with you."

Caius continued, "We were scared when you were human that we couldn't give you that and you would reject us."

Aro finished, "but now that you've told us we could, we would be honored to have you bear our children. When would you like to start?"

"As soon as possible. I would like to have them before Bella's wedding," I stated

"Then let's begin shall we?" Caius smirked, flashing to pin me down to the bed

"Oh we shall," Aro growled, seeing me under Caius. Marcus let out a growl when Caius ripped the clothes from my body, exciting for the events that are about to happen.
