A little over a week after recieving the letter we decided to travel to Volterra. My dad and Vicky are staying behind in Alaska because Vicky is still working on her animal diet. Garrett has also started drinking animal blood with a mix of a bit of human blood. He has been drinking human blood for a very long time and it is hard for him to control his diet. I don't mind though, I wouldn't want him to change himself for me anyways but he insists that he must take on the animal diet.

I was never a fan of flying, especially all those times I flew of Arizona to Washington and back. The plane ride to Italy was no different. I sat between Rosalie and Alice the whole ride and they soothed my fears. There are plane crashes all the time, who says this won't be the plane that hits the ground. I never had anyone to confort me on my trips so this was knew. Rosie and Alice took good care of me.

Once we landed I was happy to be back on the ground. I was a little nervous with the whole meeting the vampire kings thing but everyone reassured me that they was nice people who only cared about the well being of their species. I have been told that Lord Aro is the crazy one who loves drama but cares about others wellbeings, he can also see other peoples memories with a single touch. Lord Marcus is the nice and thoughtful on who is only ever worried about others being well taken care of, he can also see bonds between people. Lord Caius, is the quiet but deadly lord who is in charge of the execution of killings of the vampires who breaks laws. I have been told to avoid him at all costs because he gets very dangerous if mad.

Then theres the guard. The main people of the guard are the ones who oversee missions and training for the rest of the guard along with keeping the castle in order when the Lords are busy. There is Felix, the big guy who could crush you with a handshake but is acutally soft and gentle. Sort of like Emmett but bigger. Then theres Demetri, hes known as the goof ball and likes to have fun which consists of pranking other members of the guard. Lastly, there is Jane and Alec, the twins, at such a young age in appearance they are very powerful and comanding but still children at heart.

"Sweetheart, what are you thinking about" Rosalie whispered to me as we climbed inside of the cars that we rented to take to the castle.

"Im going over everything I need to know about the Volturi so I can make a good impression" I told her.

"You will be just fine, they will love you" Alice said happily.

I was still worried but I trusted my mates nonetheless. I played with the beautiful bracelet the Kings gave me for my birthday as the castle came into view. It was breathtaking.

"Welcome to Volterra" Carlisle said as he drived the car through the small town towards the castle.

I sat in the back seat with Alice and Rosalie while Carlisle drove with Edward riding shotgun. Garrett drove the other car with Emmett and Jasper.

"Its beautiful" I told them.

"It is a truly breathtaking place" Edward said.

Edward was a word smith of sorts. Always knew how to speak in the most proper of ways and using bigs words.

We pulled up to a gate that seemed was guarded being guarded by you guessed it, guards. Carlisle pulled up and flashed his movie star smile before exchanging greeting with the guards and they let us in. The inside of the gates was just as beautiful as the outside. We drove through a court yard type thing where there was vamps wrestling and others practicing their powers. This one guy was lifting people of the ground and flinging them around. It was funny.

"Now, don't be scared love. I know you would think them to be mean power hungry people but they are truly nice people" Carlisle said.

"Deep, deep, very deep down" Emmett mumbled annoyed as he walked up to the car that we was climbing out of.

"Emmett, just because they wouldn't let you be the prince of the Volturi doesn't mean their bad people" Jasper scolded.

"Ha, I remember that. I was doing one of my routine visits and when I walked in Emmett was sulking on the couch and ranting about how he would be the best prince and care for his people" Garrett told me.

"Honestly, if Emmett was the prince I would be worried for the worlds safety" I whispered.

"Hey, I heard that" Emmett exclaimed.

All I did was laugh and stand between Jasper and Garrett. They are by far the most dangerous out of my mates and if anything happens they would be the most protective. No matter what they all said I was still a little weary of the Volturi.

"I can feel the worry rolling off you. I know its a little scary at first entering a castle full of powerful vampires but you have nothing to worry about. You know we won't let anything happen to you" Jasper soothed my worry.

He was using his powers to soothe my mind and I was greatful for it. But watching all the vampires play around in the courtyard together was starting to make me feel better. We walked past and they would wave and give simple greetings before going back to whatever they was doing.

"Hello Cullens, Garrett, and Coven mate" A young girl with blonde hair and red eyes greeted at the doors of the castle.

"Hello Jane, we was hoping now would be a good time to introduce our mate to the kings" Carlisle informed the girl by the name of Jane.

They told me she was probably the one who picked out my bracelet. I will have to thank her when I get the chance.

"Yes now is actually a great time. They have a clear schedule today" Jane said with a hint of a smile on her lips. Just a small one though that nobody would notice if they didn't look closely.

She seemed like a nice girl and she didn't scare to much. I do know she has the power to make people feel pain by just saying pain so that was a little scary. We all followed after a really big guy who I assume was Felix after he walked up. Jane fell in step beside me.

"Thats a beautiful bracelet you have" she said subtly.

Shes wanting to know what I think about it without actually asking. How sweet.

"Yes. Its absolutely beautiful. Thank you" I said and I know she caught the hidden meaning behind the thank you.

I could tell she wasn't much for talking. Atleast not me so we continued to walk in silence until we came across these doors. When I say doors I mean walls that move. They was huge. Felix walked up and pushed the doors open with no trouble and stepped aside to allow us all to walk in. The first thing that caught my eye was the drain in the middle of the room. Slightly creepy but okay. The next thing was the three thrones with thee men sitting in them. To old guys and one slightly younger one who immedietly caught my eye.

He had long straight blonde hair and ruby red eyes. He had a bored look across his face and he didn't even look up from the book in his hands when he walked in. Rude. I knew right away this was Lord Caius.

"Haha. Finally. I have been waiting for your arrival for days now" The guy sitting in the middle thrown said as he stood up with his hands clasped together.

"Sorry for the wait my lord. We had some things to attend to before we could leave" Carlisle said formally as he stepped up.

By things he means my monthly flow. I hate travelling by plane let alone while TOM was visiting. If your wondering who TOM is its what I call my ime f onth.

"Miss Elizabeth Swan. Its a pleasure to finally meet you" Aro said as he stepped forward.

"And Garrett the Nomad" Aro said confused.

"Its a pleasure to meet you too Lord Aro. And yes, we found out the day I recieved your letter that Garrett was my second to last mate" I explained to him.

"Thats amazing dear. May I" Aro questioned as he gestured towards my hand.

I stuck my hand out and allowed for him to grasp it. He smiled at first but his face turned into a confused look.

"I don't see anything" he said confused.

"Thats because Beth is a shield. Its seems that our powers only work on her when she is concentrating on letting us in or is very distracted" Edward explained.

"Hold on lets try again" I said.

I concentrated really hard like Eleziar taught me and I could feel my body physically opening up. I stuck my hand out again quickly while my eyes was closed tight. I probably looked constipated right about now. Aro grasped my hand and gasped as he went through my memories. After some time he released my hand and smiled happily.

"I am happy to know that they are treating you well. That sister and mother of yours though I could get rid of easily" Aro whispered the last part giving me a 'say the word' look.

"Thank you for you kindness my Lord but I refuse to have contact with either of them now. Im 18 so I don't have to worry about them.

"Okay then. And please just call me Aro. Anyways, let me introduce you to my brothers Marcus and Caius" Aro said as he placed a hand lightly on my back and led me towards the thrones where the other two still sat.

Caius looked up for the first time at the mention of his name and our eyes locked immediatly. His jaw dropped open at the sight of me and I smirked.

"Hello My Lord Caius" I said with my smirk growing after each second.

"Hello" he replied.

He sat his book down and slowly stood up before walking towards me. I knew this was my final mate because my heart finally felt complete. Everyone stood back at our interaction and allowed us our moment. Aro was in the corner have a field day and having a hard time holding in his giggles. When Caius finally reached me he slowly reached down and grasped my hand in his.

"Finally" he whispered.

I looked into his ruby eyes and smiled at him before pulling away from him leaving him looking confused.

"I found my final mate, I found my final mate" I sang over and over again as I hopped around the room.

"She found her final mate, she found her final mate" a voice I didn't recognize sang as he came and hopped around the room beside me.

"Are you Elizabeth" he questioned as we continued to hop.

"Yeah, are you Demetri" I questioned as we was still hopping and everyone was laughing at us.

He sounded like the goof ball so I asked.

"Yeah. Its great to finally meet you. Aro has informed us of you" he said before he stopped hopping and pulled me into a hug.

My mates informed me he was a hugger.

I heard a low growl behind us and Demetri immediatly released me from his arms and stood tall. The next thing I knew Caius was standing in front of me protectively while he looked right at Demetri like he was about to tear him apart.
