Years have passed for the Cullen Clan and the Volturi since the face-off that was cut short after Alice's vision and the misunderstanding that had been spread. A new threat arises and calls for the Cullens and the Volturi to band together to take on the newborn outbreak threat that is exposing the existence of vampires. Aro has fought hard to keep his laws in place to stop the humans from knowing the truth about them and to stop others from enslaving the human or from the humans trying to kill them. He wanted balance. The mystery of finding out just who was brave enough to rise to rip Aro from his throne along with his young prince and princess. Alec and Jane Volturi. Someone wanted to rip the Volturi apart and break away the laws to cause chaos and destruction in the world that they have been working for centuries trying to build up and keep those laws in place for just those reasons. All in an attempt to keep that balance and peace, even if Aro's methods are harsh along with his punishments. The smell of blood is thick in the air, will everyone be able to band together to put a stop to all that is going on, or will other drama and misfortunes put more of a strain on everything taking place? Aro is left trusting in Alec to help him handle all that is going on along with Jane and Demetri. Secrets will come out. Trust will be broken. Past love returns.
