The castle was more intimidating than she thought it would be. Lilith couldn't help but grip onto Edward's arm for comfort as she walked inside the large church like scene towards the Volturi, trying to ignore the feeling of utter dread that crossed her stomach from being there.

"Sister. I send you out to get one and you bring back two." One of the guards greeted Jane. He then looked at Lilith, sensing her lack of vampirism before adding, "And a half. Such a clever girl." He mused.

The Volturi member who sat in the middle stood up with his arms out, a wide smile spread across his face, "What a happy surprise!" He said, never taking his eyes off of Lilith as he began to walk towards them, "Lilith is alive after all. Isn't that wonderful?" The man, who Lilith soon recognised to be Aro, grabbed onto Edward's hands, and Lilith let out a small gasp and flinched away in fear when they accidentally touched, she had no idea of this man's intentions and how horrible he truly could be—it didn't matter that he seemed nice. He would have been on that throne for a reason. She wanted to be as far away from him as possible, "I love a happy ending." Aro announced as he looked in between Edward and Lilith, still holding onto the vampire's hands. "They are so... rare." Edward and Aro continued to make eye contact and Lilith couldn't help but observe Aro and watch his facial expressions change as he said, "Wow, she is quite talented... and brave. It's delightful to watch."

Edward looked back at Lilith explaining, "Aro can read every through I've ever had with one touch." He said making Lilith let out a small noise of recognition as she now understood what was happening. Edward then pulled pulled his hand away from the Volturi member, "And now you know everything. So, get on with it."

Aro gave Edward a half smirk, "You are quite the soul reader yourself, Edward. Though... you can only read Lilith's thoughts when she allows you to. Fascinating." Aro loved witches, he loved learning about them and he loved having them around, and he was delighted to have Lilith in his presence as maybe she could be an ally. He took a step back, keeping his eyes on Lilith. "I would love to see if... your abilities are an exception to my gifts, as well." He said holding his hand out to her, "Would you do me the honours?"

Lilith took a step towards him, knowing it wasn't a question that she would get to choose, she knew it was an order and she as no choice and she was smart enough to know not to argue with it. Edward tried to hold her back but a small glare from her stopped him as she continued to make her way towards Aro and place her hand in his. Aro let out a happy sigh as he covered her hand with his other and closed his eyes, the blonde witch opening parts of her mind up to him to show her the things that she believed were the only things that he needed to know. He didn't need to know about Bella and her knowledge of the supernatural or even the pack on the reservation.
