Bellatrix snuck inside Angela's window like she had been doing all summer. "Romeo?" Angela looks out the window.

"Juliet?" Bellatrix speaks back as she stands at the end of the bed. "What are we? We've been sneaking around all summer, and yet no one knows." Angela voices.

"That's not true; my family knows, and Bella knows." Bellatrix tells her, and the girl looks at her in surprise. "Bella knows? How?"

"Edward couldn't keep his mouth shut." Bellatrix rolls her eyes. "And as for your question, I'm whatever you want to be. When you're ready." Bellatrix climbs into her bed, sitting on it softly as she watches Angela's face.

The one time she wished she had Edward's power was to know what was going through her lover's head. "I don't know." Angela stated.

Well, until you know, we can stay how we are. I'm happy as long as I'm with you." Bellatrix smiles as she leans in for a kiss.

"A party?" Bellatrix asks as her face contorts into one of confusion. "Why?"

"Because she is family." Carlisle tells her. "Then I want to disown her. She is a magnet for danger and disparagement." Bellatrix snorts.

In return for her comment, Carlisle and Esme give her pointed looks. "She's not wrong." Rosalie backs her up as she sits next to the Latina vampire.

"You two need to be more nice. Bella is going to be apart of this family." Carlisle tells them sternly, pushing the girls boundaries.

"Until Edward gets the balls to turn her, then no, she isn't." Bellatrix stands up, storming off to her room.

Angela pulls Bellatrix to the back of the class. She had convinced Bellatrix to switch some of her classes to have fourth period together in science.

It was also with Edward and Bella, sadly. But Bellatrix would do anything for her mate.

"You know you don't have to sneak through my window. You can walk through the front door." Angela whispers to the vampire, who lets out a small chuckle, quietly.

"Where's the fun in that, Juliet?" Bellatrix whispers back as she leans her head on Angela's shoulder, the first time they've shown public affection.

"How do you climb through my window? There are no trees." Angela asks as she grabs Bellatrix's hand. Her hand was always icy cold; it was really odd.

"I- umm. I have a good grip?" It sounded more like a question. Bellatrix internally groaned at the poor excuse, but she couldn't flat out say she was a bloodthirsty vampire.

"Liar." Angela looks up at her, licking her eyes with the Latina. "I'm going to find out how you do that."

"Good luck, Princesa." Bellatrix whispers to her as she squeezes the girl's hand lightly.

Edward stood in the study room of their house at Bella's birthday party. He was showing Bella a painting of the Volturi that included Bellatrix.

"The Volturi are a very old, very powerful family. I guess they're the closest thing to royalty my world has." Edward explains it to her.

"Is that?" Bella points to a figure next to the kings. It was the very woman who threatened her life but also saved it.
