Caius went into Aro's office where Marcus and Aro were talking. 

"Ahh brother, we were just discussing what cases to bring to trial next week." Aro says

"We need to talk to Logan." Caius says

"Why? Is something wrong?" Marcus asks, more alert.

"She has knowledge of a crime the Cullens committed but won't tell me."

"What makes you believe that?" Aro asks

"She was in the library. She was telling me about how after she was fully grown she went to different towns and started in school there and I compared it to the Cullens. She says she blends in better than the Cullens do. She's known the human for 4 years and the human was never suspicious of her but after 2 months, she figured out what the Cullens were. She said something about her being different than the rest for Edward. I asked her to elaborate but she wouldn't. She assumed we already knew whatever it is but since we don't she isn't going to say anything. She's worried we would kill the human after punishing the Cullen boy."

Aro holds out his hand to read Caius' mind. Caius rolled his eyes but placed his hand in his brother's. Aro closes his eyes and focuses on Caius' memories and thoughts on his conversation with Logan. 

"Ahh, yes. It does seem like she knows something." Aro says

"If it's something to do with Edward Cullen, why didn't you see it when you read his thoughts before Aro?" Marcus asks

"I was focusing on his time with Isabella and nothing else." Aro tells him. "We'll have to talk to Logan about what she knows."

"How would we even convince her to tell us? You can't read her mind and I refuse to allow her to be put through any other methods of getting information, Aro."

"Based on Caius's thoughts, I think she is just worried about young Isabella's fate if this information comes to light. I think if we guarantee that the girl will be safe, she will tell us."

🔥🔥🔥

Not long after Caius left the library, Logan left too. She found her way back to Demetri's room and was pacing back and forth, freaking out. 

How do they not know? Rumors have been going around about it and even I heard them and I'm not normally recognized as a vampire.  Logan thinks to herself as she paces.

Demetri walks into the bedroom to see Logan pacing. She didn't even notice that he walked in the room.

"Cara mia? What's wrong?" Demetri asks.

Logan pauses in her pacing to look at him momentarily. "Nothing." She says and continues pacing.

"Okay. That was a lie." Demetri says. Logan continues pacing so Demetri walks in her path and holds her shoulders to get her to stop. "What's wrong, cara mia? Something is bothering you and don't lie and say it's not."

"I accidentally did something and I don't know what to do about it." She says before turning and starting to pace again. "God, Bella is going to kill me."

Demetri stops her again. "Okay. First, stop pacing. Sit down and talk to me." Demetri says while having Logan sit with him on the couch. "What happened? What did you do?"

"I was talking to Caius in the library. He was asking me if I was like the Cullens since I moved around and started school over in the new towns I go to. I told him I blended in better and then mentioned something I thought he already knew but he didn't and now he wants me to tell him what because it might be related to a crime."

"So the Cullens committed some kind of crime that Master Caius didn't know about and now he's demanding you tell him?"

"Yes."

"Then what exactly is the problem?"

"Bella will kill me is the problem."

"What? Why?"

"Because if the Kings didn't know, when they find out they will punish the Cullens. Most likely by death. Who knows what will happen to Bella afterwards and if the disco ball jackass gets killed by something I accidentally let slip, I doubt she would ever forgive me. I don't like the jackass, really I don't like any of the Cullens, but Bella loves him."

"If it's a crime punishable by death, you need to tell the masters."

"I just don't know how they don't already know. There have been so many rumors about it. That's how I originally heard about it and I don't even look like a vampire."

"If it was just a rumor, how do you know if it's true?"

"Because when Bella told me about Edward I looked into it."

"And it's true." Demetri stated instead of questioned.

"Yeah. I told Bella about it, but she blew it off, saying I was finding things that weren't there. But really I think Edward has his claws in her so deep that she can't think straight. I swear she completely changed after meeting him. She used to be really independent, sarcastic, and sassy but now she is more timid, like a scared puppy, and so dependent on Edward it's like she literally cannot function without him. It was so toxic but she ran right back to him."

"If whatever was done is as bad as you're making it sound and you're worried about his effect on the human, maybe you should tell the masters. You could be protecting her."

"I don't know...maybe." She says before placing her head in her hands. "I don't want to talk about this anymore." She lifts her head and looks at Demetri. "Can we go do something? I could use a distraction."

"I told you I'd take you to get clothes. It's overcast today, why don't we leave now and I can show you around Volterra and Florence?"

"I'd love that."

"Well then." Demetri says and he stands and holds his hand out to Logan. "Shall we?"

"We shall." Logan says as she places her hand in Demetri's and they walk out of their room and exit the castle.
