"Ah I knew you were special earlier when you asked to leave after the show you gave us."

"Yes and you know how I was made which means you also know it can't be recreated."

"Yes well we just might have to kill the one who did this to you."

"You will leave him be and if I hear word that you have harmed him in any way I will be coming for you. That may not scare them, but it should scare you based on what you've seen of my past." I say jerking my head towards Marcus and Caius.

"You show such blatant disrespect to us and think you can demand things from us? Foolish girl we could have you killed for such disrespect." Caius spits out aggravated with my attitude.

"I doubt Aro wants to kill a vampire with three vampiric gifts and the ability to use telekinesis as you all saw earlier." I spit at him.

Aro moves on to Bella making me flit to her side with my arm crossed over my chest staring him down. He takes a hold of her outstretched hand before giving a laugh again that creeps me the hell out. Seriously, does he have to laugh like that ever single time or does he have a normal laugh. Edward's lips twitch at my thoughts before we focus on Aro once more knowing he could decide to do anything. I hear his plans and put myself in front of Bella blocking Jane's game from touching Bella as Edward moves in front of me. Edward crumbles immediately making me glare at Jane, but I can't do anything to stop her making me furious.

"Stop it! Stop hurting him!" Bells cries out throwing herself at his side making Aro surprised.

"You would risk yourself for one of us?"

"She would as you can already see. Now call Jane off before I make her myself much like earlier."

He nods and Jane stops before stepping into the shadows, but before she does she gives me a glare. I roll my eyes at her as Edward gets to his feet watching the Volturi carefully. I stand rigid inside of what they are going to do when Aro gives a small smile to me. Confused I look to Edward, but he shakes his head just as confused as I am. Alice stands next to me worried about why they have gone so silent.

"Darling Isadonia I put forth the same deal that I gave your brother here earlier."

"Yeah, no thanks. I don't exactly want to feed off humans which is what you guys really want me to do. You'd use my powers for your own means and send me into battle because I'm stronger right now. I don't like that idea so I kindly refuse your gracious offer Aro."

Caius looks affronted at the fact that I can actually show any kind of respect based off what he previously saw. I smirk at him before focusing my eyes back on Aro carefully watching over his thoughts when his eyes flicker to Bella. He sighs as he moves back to his throne making me move closer to Bella to shield her from them. Caius watches me move before he gives a wicked smile setting off alarms in my mind. That's when I hear his thoughts and catch Edward's eye before nodding at Caius. I figured he'd be the one that is the problem while we're here and he just showed his hand.

"Brother do you think it's quite safe to let the human leave her? She knows too much about us and it may not be safe to let her leave."

"That is true Caius. How can we be sure that she can keep a secret this huge from everyone. It might be better if she doesn't leave Volterra."

A feral snark rips from my throat as Alice moves towards Aro and I see her thoughts. My eyes flicker around the room quickly judging where we can push our way out of need be and I find no weak spots. I stop looking as I see the vision that Alice is showing Aro before I come back to see Aro smiling. I hold in the shudder that I want to give seeing that smile aimed at Bella. His eyes flicker to me as well letting me know he is going to keep a close eye on me from now on. Alice comes back to my side once Aro lets her hand go and I see the frown on Caius' face.

"Go and make the preparations for dear Bella. Isadonia we'll be keep an eye on you for a time." Aro says and Caius looks furious, but this is an empty victory.

We all turn away and walk into the hall when the doors are opened for us. A line of humans slide by us into the throne room that we have just left. Alice grips my hand as we continue walking faster already knowing the fate of those poor souls that have gone into the throne room. Screams echo from the room and the smell of human blood permeates the air, but this time it makes me sick. I must make some kind of face because Alice asks in her mind what is wrong.

"The smell of the human blood is making me sick right now. If I could throw up I probably would have already."

"Maybe it's a sign that you have started to learn how to control your thirst."

"Or it's because they weren't thirsty and they're doing it because we're leaving them empty handed. Aro is going to be keeping a close eye on me from now on because I'm so powerful and he wants you in his guard as well. He wants all three of us and that may become an issue in the future."

"Do you see them coming for us?" She says worried.

"No, but we all know what lengths they will go to just to acquire others with powers they themselves do not have. Now is a time to not worry about them because they will only come if they are provoked."

"Let's all go home." She says with a smile.
