A/N: This chapter I'll start working with POV's. Mostly Ella's. Not sure how that will work out but I'd love to hear your opinion!
"Happy birthday, darling"
Sunlight shone in my eyes as I opened them. My father stood over me, his skin sparkling in said light. A small smile was gracing his lips.
I smiled softly at him and leaned up to peck his cheek. Wishing him my version of a good morning. He held a small wrapped present out to me and I took it. Carefully opening it so I won't cut myself.
Today was my 18th birthday and that meant I would finally be an adult. Hopefully my father would allow me to experiment with my gift until I managed to become a vampire. That would be the best gift ever. But I also knew how against he is to me turning in a vampire. He says it's more trouble than it's worth. Which I don't understand at all. After all I was raised by them and being the only human around meant trouble everywhere I went.
Inside the box was a golden necklace with a locket in the shape of a drop. Not sure if it was supposed to represent blood or water but that didn't matter to me. In the locket were two pictures. One with me and the twins and the other also with me and the kings. All of us were smiling softly.
My smile grew as I put the necklace around my neck and near my heart. I kissed my father again as he lays beside me on my bed, his cold arms around me as he pulls me against his hard body. "Won't you give me a small gift in return?" His red eyes stare into my own green ones as I slowly nod. I know what he wants from me and I have been thinking about it for a while. Let's just do it.
And so, I push myself up and lean down to his ear so no one else will hear me. "Thank you, father, for everything you have done for me these past 17 years." I peck his cheek one more time before I slip out of bed and head into my bathroom. Never looking back to see his surprised expression.
After I had breakfast I decided to head out to the garden once again. Today was the day I was found. Today was the day I was reborn into this world.
I remember opening my eyes and thinking about how I wasn't dead but I never actually questioned me being here. I was in a series of books and movies but I didn't care. I enjoyed my time here and nobody could change that part of me. Memories would still haunt my dreams. Like how I died or how I was almost raped... or the accident that scarred me forever.
Cold hands pull me from my thoughts and I look up to meet... golden eyes? This is new. "What is a girl like you doing here?"
A smirk forms on my lips. 'Wouldn't you like to know, mister Mindreader?' His eyes widen as he removes his hands from my arm. "Ella? There you are!" Alec walks up to us and holds his hand out for me. I take it without hesitation. "Stay away from our princess. Her father would have your head for just touching her." He hisses at the Cullen. 'No, he wouldn't. I wouldn't allow it. Don't worry.' Edward seems to relax and smirks at Alec. "Wouldn't dream of touching her."
The boys stare at each other until I decide that enough is enough. My hand tightens around Alec's hand and that is enough to pull him from the staring contest. "Your father wants to see you." He says before softly pulling me away.
As I look behind me at the Cullen, I can't resist the urge to tease him. 'Let's be friends, Edward Cullen' This makes him frown as he looks after us.
The air in the throne room feels cold against my skin as we enter. Jane quickly joins our side before putting a coat around my shoulders. I give her a grateful smile and she takes my free hand in her cold one.
"My dear niece. Please meet Carlisle Cullen. He is a doctor and will have a checkup with you. The reason for this is that we would like to know why you won't talk to us." Uncle Aro speaks to me as he slowly walks closer but before he gets the chance to place his hand on my cheek, I move away. One step backwards is all it takes. "She can talk just fine Aro. Let her be." "Yet she doesn't!" Aro snaps back at my father.
A sigh escapes me as I signal for Carlisle to follow me. I turn around and walk away, one of the twins still at each of my sides. Outside we pass Edward who joins his father in walking behind us. Soon we reach my room and I pull my hands back from the twins to open my door. I enter but the twins stay outside glancing at each other. 'What is their problem?' " They are deciding if they should stay guard or if they should enter with you." A smirk form on my lips as I nod at Edward. 'Thank you' "You are very welcome"
The twins growl at Edward but I grab their robes before they can do anything to him. Pulling them in the room. The two Cullens enter soon after and Edward closes the door behind him.
The check-up was simple and nothing special. Questions were asked but none got an answer. At least not verbally. I answered everything Edward asked me by thinking the answers. He never showed anyone the exchange that was happening between us but I am sure he'll tell his father all he wants to know later. He is a good boy after all.
The Cullens left my room after they were done, leaving me with the twins.
"We never gave you a birthday gift. We're sorry..." Alec says with his soft voice. But instead of getting angry I giggle softly and point at my cheeks with a grin on my face. "What does she mean?" Jane asks her brother who shrugs. My grin turns into a pout as I grab Jane's collar and pull her close so I can kiss her cheek. They both look startled and frozen in place. My pout grows as I lay back on my bed, arms crossed on my chest. They'll never give me those kisses...
I gasp softly as I feel cold lips on my cheeks. They are... kissing me at the same time. My face heats up and my heart decides to beat a little faster than normal. Of course, the twins notice this and it shows by the grins they are giving me.
Whenever someone is with us, they act so cold hearted but the moment we are alone they turn into these big softies. I wonder why? Do they like me that much?
After all that drama it was the best birthday I have ever had. I actually got to meet two of the Cullens after all. Can't wait to meet the rest of them.
