the ancient voices of Aro and Caius�察�and I froze just inside the kitchen。 

I knew the front room was crowded!almost everyone had gone in to see the newest visitors!but 
there was barely any noise。 Shallow breathing�察�that was all。 

Carlisle's voice was wary as he responded。 ;Then what brings you here now�拭─�

;Word travels�察─�a different voice answered�察�just as feathery as the first。 ;We heard hints that Volturi were 
moving against you。 There were whispers that you would not stand alone。 Obviously�察�the whispers were 
true。 This is an impressive gathering。; 

;We are not challenging the Volturi�察─�Carlisle answered in a strained tone。 ;There has been a 
misunderstanding�察�that is all。 A very serious misunderstanding�察�to be sure�察�but one we're hoping to clear 
up。 What yousee are witnesses。 We just need the Volturi to listen。 We didn't!; 

;We don't care what they say you did�察─�the first voice interrupted。 ;And we don't care if you broke the 
law。; 

;No matter how egregiously�察─�the second inserted。 

;We've been waiting a millennium and a half for the Italian scum to be challenged�察─�said the first。 ;If there 
is any chance theywill fall�察�we will be here to see it。; 

;Or even to help defeat them�察─�the second added。 They spoke ina smooth tandem�察�their voices so similar 
that less sensitive ears would assume there was only one speaker。 ;If we think you havea chance of 
success。; 

;Bella�拭�Edward called to me ina hard voice。 ;Bring Renesmee here�察�please。 Maybe we should test our 
Romanian visitors' claims。; 



                                                                                                               Page 364

It helped to know that probably half of the vampires in the other room would come to Renesmee's 
defense if these Romanians were upset by her。 I didn't like the sound of their voices�察�or the dark menace 
in their words。 As I walked into the room�察�I could see that I was not alone in that assessment。 Most of 
the motionless vampires glared with hostile eyes�察�anda few!Carmen�察�Tanya�察�Zafrina�察�and 
Senna!repositioned themselves subtly into defensive poses between the newcomers and Renesmee。 

The vampires at the door were both slight and short�察�one dark´haired and the other with hair so ashy 
blond that it looked pale gray。 They had the same powdery look to their skin as the Volturi�察�though I 
thought it was not so pronounced。 I couldn't be sure about that�察�as I had never seen the Volturi except 
with human eyes�察�I could not make a perfect comparison。 Their sharp�察�narrow eyes were dark burgundy�察�
with no milky film。 They wore very simple black clothes that could pass as modern but hinted at older 
designs。 

The dark one grinned when I came into view。 ;Well�察�well�察�Carlisle。 You have been naughty�察�haven't 
you�拭─�

;She's not what you think�察�Stefan。; 

;And we don't care either way�察─�the blonde responded。 ;As we said before。; 

;Then you're welcome to observe�察�Vladimir�察�but it is definitely not our plan to challenge the Volturi�察�as 
we said before。; 

;Then we'lljust cross our fingers�察─�Stefan began。 

;And hope we get lucky�察─�finished Vladimir。 

In the end�察�we had pulled together seventeen witnesses!the Irish�察�Siobhan�察�Liam�察�and Maggie�察�the 
Egyptians�察�Amun�察�Kebi�察�Benjamin�察�and Tia�察�the Amazons�察�Zafrina and Senna�察�the Romanians�察�Vladimir 
and Stefan�察�and the 

nomads�察�Charlotte and Peter�察�Garrett�察�Alistair�察�Mary�察�and Randall!to supplement our family of eleven。 
Tanya�察�Kate�察�Eleazar�察�and Carmen insisted on being counted as part of our family。 

Aside from the Volturi�察�it was probably the largest friendly gathering of mature vampires in immortal 
history。 

We all were beginning to be a little bit hopeful。 Even I couldn't help it。Renesmee had won over so 
many in such a brief time。The Volturi only had to listen for just the tiniest second___ 

The lasttwo surviving Romanians!focused only on their bitter resentment of the ones who had 
overthrown their empire fifteen hundred years earlier!took everything in stride。 They would not touch 
Renesmee�察�but they showed no aversion to her。 They seemed mysteriously delighted by our alliance with 
the werewolves。They watched me practice my shield with Zafrina and Kate�察�watched Edward answer 
unspoken questions�察�watched Benjaminpull geysers of water from the river or sharp gusts of wind from 
the still air with just his mind�察�and their eyes glowed with their fierce hope that the Volturi had finally met 
their match。 

We did not hope for the same things�察�but we all hoped。

33。 FORGERY 

;Charlie�察�we've still got that strictly need´to´know company situation going。 I know it's been more than a 
week since you saw Renesmee�察�but a visit is just not a good idea right now。 How about I bring 
Renesmee over to see you�拭─�

Charlie was quiet for so long that I wondered if he heard the strain beneath my fagade。 

But then he muttered�察 �Need to know�察�ugh; and I realized it was just his wariness of the supernatural 
that made him slow to respond。 

;Okay�察�kid�察─�Charlie said。 ;Can you bring her over this morning�拭�Sue's bringing me lunch。 She's just as 
horrified by my cooking as you were when you first showed up。; 

Charlie laughed and then sighed for the old days。 

;This morning will be perfect。; The sooner the better。 I'd already put this off too long。 

;Is Jake coming with you guys�拭─�

Though Charlie didn't know anything about werewolf imprinting�察�no one could be oblivious to the 
attachment between Jacob and Renesmee。 

;Probably。; There was no way Jacob would voluntarily miss an afternoon with Renesmee sans 
bloodsuckers。 

;Maybe I should invite Billy�察�too�察─�Charlie mused。 ;But。。。 hmm。 Maybe another time。; 

I was only half paying attention to Charlie!enough to notice the strange reluctance in his voice when he 
spoke of Billy�察�but not enough to worry what that was about。 Charlie and Billy were grown´ups�察�if there 
was something going on between them�察�they could figure it out for themselves。 I had too many more 
important things to obsess over。 

;See you in a few�察─�I told him�察�and hung up。 

This trip was about more than protecting my father from the twenty´seven oddly matched vampires 
!who all had sworn not to kill anyone in a three´hundred´mile radius�察�but still。。。 Obviously�察�no human 
being should get anywhere near this group。 This was the excuse I'd given Edward�此�I was taking 
Renesmee to Charlie so that he wouldn't decide 

to come here。 It was a good reason for leaving the house�察�but not my real reason at all。 

;Why can't we take your Ferrari�拭─�Jacob complained when he met me in the garage。 I was already in 
Edward's Volvo with Renesmee。 

Edward had gotten around to revealing my after car�察�as he'd suspected�察�I had not been capable of 
showing the appropriate enthusiasm。 Sure�察�it was pretty and fast�察�but I liked to run。 

;Too conspicuous�察─�I answered。 ;We could go on foot�察�but that would freak Charlie out。; 

Jacob grumbled but got into the front seat。 Renesmee climbed from my lap to his。 



                                                                                                            Page 366

;How are you�拭─�I asked him as I pulled out of the garage。 

;How do you think�拭─�Jacob asked bitingly。 ;I'm sick of all these reeking bloodsuckers。; He saw my 
expression and spoke before I could answer。 ;Yeah�察�I know�察�I know。 They're the good guys�察�they're 
here to help�察�they're going to save us all。 Etcetera�察�etcetera。 Say what you want�察�I still think Dracula One 
and Dracula Two are creep´tacular。; 

I had to smile。 The Romanians weren't my favorite guests�察�either。 ;I don't disagree with you there。; 

Renesmee shook her head but said nothing�察�unlike the rest of us�察�she found the Romanians strangely 
fascinating。 She'd made the effort to speak to them aloud since they would not let her touch them。 Her 
question was about their unusual skin and�察�though I was afraid they might be offended�察�I was kind of glad 
she'd asked。 I was curious�察�too。 

They hadn't seemed upset by her interest。 Maybe a little rueful。 

;We sat still for a very long time�察�child�察─�Vladimir had answered�察�with Stefan nodding along but not 
continuing Vladimir's sentences as he often did。 ;Contemplating our own divinity。 It was a sign of our 
power that everything came to us。 Prey�察�diplomats�察�those seeking our favor。 We sat on our thrones and 
thought ourselves gods。 We didn't notice for a long time that we were changing!almost petrifying。 I 
suppose the Volturi did us one favor when they burned our castles。 Stefan and I�察�at least�察�did not 
continue to petrify。 Now the Volturi's eyes are filmed with dusty scum�察�but ours are bright。 I imagine that 
will give us an advantage when we gouge theirs from their sockets。; 

I tried to keep Renesmee away from them after that。 

;How long do we get to hang out with Charlie�拭─�Jacob asked�察�interrupting my thoughts。 He was visibly 
relaxing as we pulled away from the house and all its new inmates。 It made me happy that I didn't really 
count as a vampire to him。 I was still just Bella。 

;For quite a while�察�actually。; 

The tone of my voice caught his attention。 

;Is something going on here besides visiting your dad�拭─�

;Jake�察�you know how you're pretty good at controlling your thoughts around Edward�拭─�

He raised one thick black brow。 ;Yeah�拭─�

I just nodded�察�cutting my eyes to Renesmee。 She was looking out the window�察�and I couldn't tell how 
interested she was in our conversation�察�but I decided not to risk going any further。 

Jacob waited for me to add something else�察�and then his lower lip pushed out while he thought about 
what little 

I'd said。 

As we drove in silence�察�I squinted through the annoying contacts into the cold rain�察�it wasn't quite cold 
enough for snow。 My eyes were not as ghoulish
