Chapter 27: I'm Not the Good Guy
(Alec's POV)
Tears were streaming down Nessie's face as she looked at me with fear. When I tried to step towards her she ran away at full speed. I let out a frustrated sigh running my hand through my hair. I caught my reflection in the room's mirror and understood why she was afraid. Not only did she watch a person get killed, the woman's blood was smeared all over my chin and up to my cheeks. This is why I hate it when my meals struggle.
So much for my record of eating without making a mess.
I went to the bathroom and washed off my face wondering what to do. He family was gone for another couple days and Raven wasn't available. I don't regret killing the human, but I should've been more conscious about locking the door. Then again we don't usually have children in the castle during feeding time. I let out a frustrated growl walking slowly out of the wing.
"What's troubling you this time?" Aro asked coming up to me. I gave him my hand not wanting to explain.
"Ah." Aro said thinking. Eventually he sighed, "you should go explain this to her Alec. The Cullens tell her that not all vampires are like them, but they leave out the important details. The child needs to understand what vampires are." Aro sighed, "I'll wait a few hours then call Carlisle and let him know what happened."
"Why wait?" I asked.
"Because it's time the child learns what a true vampire is like. She needs to understand what our views are and that her family are the only ones who don't hunt humans." He paused, "the girl needs to know that it's a vampire's instinct to kill humans not animals."
"Yes sir."
"But be kind Alec, she's still a child." Aro patted my shoulder, "Before you go to her I want you to find out why Gianna wasn't with her." I nodded and walked slowly in the direction of where Gianna was.
When I reached her desk she was on the phone with someone. I grabbed the phone out of her hand and slammed it back in the holder, hanging up on the person.
"Why the hell are you on the phone and not watching the Cullen's child." I hissed. Her eyes widened and her heart beat faster in fear.
"I-uh." Was all she got out before I growled.
"You what?" I hissed, "you were too busy talking to that boyfriend of your instead of doing your job."
"I-I" she stuttered shaking.
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you?" I glared at her, "because of you Nessie was wondering around the castle during feeding time. She could've been killed."
"I-I'm sorry sir." She said shaking, I growled lowly.
"Go to Aro and explain this to him," I hissed, "you'd better hope he's in a forgiving mood because I'm not." I glared at her as she ran away towards Aro's office. When she was out of sight I slowly walked towards Nessie's room calming myself down.
When I reached the room I knocked softly and opened the door looking inside.
Nessie was lying on her bed cuddling up with the teddy bear I got her. I didn't see her at first because it hid her from my view.
"Renesmee," I said softly entering the room closing the door behind me. She was awake; I could hear her softly sobbing in the teddy bear. I sighed and walked slowly over to the bed so I wouldn't startle her. "Renesmee talk to me please." I whispered once I reached the side of the bed.
"No," she sobbed, "go away, you're a killer." I let out a long sigh. After a moment I sat on the side of the bed right by her. The only thing between us was the teddy bear.
