Rebel Yell 2

“This is not where I expected to find Victoria.”Rosalie said as she looked at the large security walls that were keeping she and the sisters from what was on the other side. Walls that Rosalie was sure that even a vampire would have problems getting through. If that wasn’t concerning enough they seemed to have electric barbed wire on top of the walls that Rosalie bet could hurt a vampire. It seemed that wherever Victoria was hiding was some kind of fortress with not only the 20ft walls but high end security equipment to include cameras that were pointing right at them. Cameras that they didn’t see until they had already been caught. Rosalie wasn’t sure what Victoria was involved in that she needed so much security but it would make sense if she was hiding from her enemies.

“How the hell are we supposed to get in there?”Kate asked.

“I don’t know.”Irina didn’t have a clue as to how to breach the wall.

“Well they know we are here so why don’t we just walk up to the gate and ask for an audience.”Tanya suggested.

“You want us to just walk up and knock on the door?”Rosalie didn’t think that was a good idea.

Tanya shrugged.”If they wanted to hurt us I think they would have already done it because seeing the security they have in place I have no doubt they have other things to use if someone breached the walls.”

“I think it’s a good idea.”Irina said.

“I don’t know about how safe I would feel inside the compound but I can’t think of any other way to get inside.”Kate would prefer knowing what she was walking into so she had time to prepare for the situation but they didn’t have the luxury this time.

“Alright let’s go see if we can get her attention.”Rosalie wasn’t sure if it would work but she didn’t have a better plan. Walking up to the front gate she was very aware of the many cameras that followed her every move. Seeing a call box on the side she made a move to push the button but before she could the gate began sliding open.”What the hell?”

“Well that isn’t ominous.”Kate muttered.

“I will do the talking.”Tanya as coven leader would be the one expected to handle all discussions with another coven or nomad.”Let’s go.”

“Fine.”Rosalie wasn’t pleased that she couldn’t confront Victoria right away but would follow Tanya’s lead. Walking behind the coven leader Rosalie took in the large home at the top of a long driveway. It was larger than any mansion the Denali or the Cullens ever owned and Rosalie wondered how Victoria could afford it. Then again if she was involved with the firm they likely managed her money.

Kate nudged Rosalie in the arm.“Hey Rosalie check it out.”

“What?”Rosalie looked to where Kate was pointing stopping suddenly at the sight. Rosalie had been so focused on the house that she had missed the large warehouse with the bay doors opened that showed what seemed to be hundreds of cars. Rosalie couldn’t see all of them but the few she had seen were very rare and very valuable. One of them was a car that Rosalie preordered that wasn’t supposed to be available to the public for two years.”Holy shit.”

“It seems not only is Victoria wealthy but she has good contacts as well.”Irina said looking over the beautiful landscaping. Everything was obviously done by an artist as the designs of the flowers were unlike anything Irina had ever seen and the bushes and hedges were living sculptures of animals and people. Some of those people Irina thought she could recognize.

“I want to know about her security.”Tanya would like to have half of the level of security on their homes. Stepping up to the door she paused.”Now remember no matter what I will do the talking.”

“We know.”Rosalie didn’t have to like it however.

Tanya took a deep breath then pressed the door bell. The door immediately swung open revealing what could only be described as a human robot.”Uhm hello.”

“Hello Tanya Denali and coven. Welcome to Mrs. and Mrs.Cinse’s home.”The robot greeted.

“Ms.Cinse lives here?”Tanya really didn’t understand what was going on.

“Both Mrs.Cinses live here.”The robot corrected.

“I see.”Tanya didn’t but doubted that she would get a proper answer from a robot. The fact that she was talking to a robot was something she was going to dwell on later.”We are looking for a vampire named Victoria.”

“Follow me. Mrs.Cinse is waiting for you in the parlor.”The robot didn’t wait for a reply before it turned around and led them through the house.

“What the fuck?”Rosalie asked as she along with the others hurried after the robot.

“I don’t know.”Tanya did not feel comfortable in this situation at all. Suddenly the robot stopped in front of a door.

“Mrs.Cinse Tanya Denali, Kate Denali, Irina Denali and Rosalie Hale are here to see you.”The robot announced.

“It’s Swan not Hale.”Rosalie corrected.

“You are dismissed Bob.”A female voice said.

Tanya watched as the robot bowed and left them in the hallway. Taking that as permission to enter Tanya was surprised to find a very elaborate formal sitting room. There was a couch, chair, love seat and settee all styled out of the 1700’s and to Tanya’s eye all original pieces. There were oil paintings on the wall of various people Tanya didn’t recognize except for the three individual ones of the queens. Tanya thought it was odd for Victoria of all people to have paintings of the queens in her home but wasn’t going to question it. Hearing a throat clearing Tanya caught sight of the woman in question leaning against the wall watching them in amusement. If Tanya had questions before seeing Victoria’s green eyes gave her a hundred more. Especially because Tanya could tell they weren’t contacts.

“I know you have all kinds of questions for me. Some I might even answer but before we begin I would like to offer you refreshments. My wife would get mad if I didn’t. Regardless of her feelings about the four of you. We have animal blood if that is still your thing or human if it’s not. If you feeling adventurous you can try the synthetic that myself and my wife drink. I warn you it has some side effects.”Victoria pointed to her eyes.

“What do you mean synthetic blood?”Irina asked.

“My love hated the hassle it was to hunt so she developed her own kind of blood so she didn’t have to. I was skeptical at first but have found life is a lot better not being controlled by blood lust.”Victoria told her.

“I want to try the blood.”Kate would love not have to feel the need to hunt constantly.

“Wait a minute. What are these side effects you mentioned?”Tanya was interested as well but didn’t want to do anything that would hurt them.

“You get your human eye color back, it makes you feel like you did during your newborn years minus the thirst but when it wears off you get tired enough that you will sleep for up to 8 hours.”Victoria explained.

“The blood makes a vampire sleep?”Rosalie wasn’t sure she believed that.

“I personally think it’s a fair trade. Even if some of my dreams are weird.”Victoria said.

“I’m trying it.”Kate wasn’t going to miss out on the chance to try something that could replace hunting. Plus she hadn’t slept in over a thousand years she would like the chance.

“Me too.”Rosalie not only wanted her human eye color back she wanted to sleep. She hoped her dreams would be about Bella.

“What do you think Tanya?”Irina would follow her mate’s lead on this.

“I would like to try it.”Tanya like Kate wanted the chance to sleep.

“Then I will as well.”Irina said.

“Alright.”Victoria opened a small refrigerator that was disguised a drinks trolly and pulled out four bottles. She used a bottle opener to open each top and handed one to each woman.

“Cheers!”Kate took a large swig expecting it to taste horrible. She couldn’t have been more wrong. Kate wasn’t sure what chocolate tasted like but based on the smell Kate figured the blood was chocolate flavored but rather than it being disgusting it was the greatest thing Kate had ever tasted. It was sweet and decadent and Kate couldn’t get enough of it. She was sad when she finished the bottle.

“That tasted like strawberries.”Irina remembered strawberries from her human life and that’s exactly what the blood tasted like to her.

“Mine tasted like a Sunday roast with all the spices my housekeeper used to use on it.”Rosalie had never tasted anything as good since she was changed into a vampire. Not even blood.

“This one tasted like butterscotch smells like.”Tanya turned her attention to a smug looking Victoria.”How is that possible?”

“My love thought it was unfair that just because we are vampires that we should have to give up human food. With a lot of trial and error she came up with a line of synthetic blood that taste just like human food that we don’t have to throw up. The ones you have tried are just four out of three dozen she has come up with. As a matter of fact she comes up with a new flavor at least once a month.”Victoria told them.

“How can we get regular shipments of this blood?”Now that Tanya had tried it she didn’t want to go back to animal. Not only did the synthetic blood taste better Victoria was right. It made her feel as strong and alert as when she was a newborn. Looking at Irina’s blue eyes Tanya also thought having their eye color back would help them blend in better.

“That I’m afraid will be up to my wife as she is very particular about who has access to it. She actually makes it by hand with only my help she is so protective of it.”Victoria said.

“Can you set up a meeting with her as I am to assume that she is also the owner of the agency I went to today?”Rosalie took a step back when Victoria growled at her.

“No Cullen is going near my wife.”Victoria wouldn’t allow it. She was told to find out what the group wanted and send them on their way. Not set up meetings. Victoria actually would prefer to kill the four of them but her wife didn’t want to deal with the hassle of explaining to the queens why they killed off a coven. Even if Victoria knew the queens would side with them.

“I’m not a Cullen anymore nor have I been for the last three decades.”Rosalie told her.

“Ah yes you go by the last name Swan now. How did that come about?”Victoria was curious why Rosalie took a dead girl’s last name.

“That’s none of your business but while we are on the subject. How are you alive? Alice said that you died the night you killed Bella.”Rosalie wasn’t fast enough to dodge Victoria’s attack and found herself pinned to the floor with Victoria’s hand around her throat.

“If any of you move I will have the robots come back and they are all armed with weapons that shoot fire.”Victoria threatened.

”We won’t do anything but will you please let Rosalie up? She hasn’t done anything wrong.”Tanya jumped at the sound of a woman’s voice coming from behind her.

“You owe me a trip to the lego store.”The woman said.

“How do you expect me to hold back when she accused me of killing you?”Victoria asked.

“Bella?”Rosalie’s mind was just catching up with everything that was going on. Hearing the woman’s voice and hearing what Victoria said Rosalie eagerly turned her head the best she could and caught sight of the brown eyed girl she thought died all those years ago. There were some big differences however. Like the large scar that started from Bella’s hair line going underneath the shirt she was wearing and the two bite marks on her neck. The biggest thing that was different that Rosalie could see however was the wheelchair that Bella was sitting in.

Victoria punched Rosalie in the face.”You don’t say her name.”

“Vic that’s enough. Let her go.”Bella told her.

Victoria growled, squeezed Rosalie’s neck one more time and got off her. Making her way over to Bella she kissed her mate on the cheek.”You promised me you would let me deal with them.”

“And you promised me a lego shopping spree if you got violent.”Bella reminded her.

“What is going on?”Kate asked not being able to stop herself.

Rosalie stood from the ground and adjusted her clothing back in place.”I would like to know as well as we thought both of you were dead.”

“If Edward had it his way we would be.”Victoria said as she stood behind Bella with her hands on her shoulders ready to defend her if needed.

“What are you talking about?”Tanya really wanted to know what was going on.

Bella looked to Rosalie to see if she knew but was caught off guard when she caught her eye. Suddenly so many of her feelings for Rosalie when she was a human and those when she was turned made sense.”I see.”

“What do you see?”Victoria asked.

“Rosalie and I have a mate bond.”Bella held Victoria’s hands on her shoulder to prevent her from going after Rosalie.

“I will kill you.”Victoria wasn’t going to let Bella be mated to a Cullen.

“Vic you aren’t killing anyone. At least not yet. We need to know what she knew first.”Bella wouldn’t pursue a relationship with Rosalie if she had knowledge of what Edward had done.

“She hated you. She probably helped Edward plan it.”Victoria didn’t trust Rosalie.

“I never hated Bella.”Rosalie was outraged anyone would say such a thing.

“Alright let’s all calm down and take a seat. Then we can sort out this whole mess.”Bella suggested.

“That’s a good idea.”Tanya didn’t want any more fighting to break out. She was also very curious as what happened in Bella’s life to have her being a vampire in a wheelchair. Something Tanya had never heard of before. Taking a seat on the couch Tanya grabbed Rosalie’s arm and made her sit with her. That way Tanya could interfere if the blond vampire got upset. Waiting until everyone was settled with Bella’s chair being moved to sit next to the arm chair Victoria sat in Tanya spoke.”So Bella what exactly happened that made it so everyone thinks you are dead?”

“Actually I think that question should be for Rosalie. What led up to the events of your family thinking Bella was dead?”Victoria asked.

“All of us but Edward were in our home in Canada when one day Alice started screaming. Everyone rushed to see what was wrong and when she calmed down enough to tell us she said that Bella’s future was blank and when she looked for Victoria as we all knew you were after Bella she found yours was blank as well. She didn’t have any details on what happened.”That was the worst night of Rosalie’s life. The second worst being when she was forced to leave Bella behind in Forks.

“Did you believe her?”Bella didn’t for a second believe Alice didn’t know what happened. Maybe not that Bella was alive but she knew what Edward did.

“I did because it was well know Victoria was coming after you for revenge for us killing her mate.”Rosalie flinched when Victoria growled at her again.

“James was not my mate. He was my sire and controlled everything I did. You guys killing him was a blessing.”Victoria had been beyond happy when James was killed.

“Then why were you trying to kill Bella?”Rosalie was very confused by this whole situation.

Victoria rolled her eyes.”I wasn’t trying to kill Bella you idiot. I was trying to talk to her because we are mates.”

“Wait you think you are Bella’s mate?”Irina didn’t understand that as she thought Victoria was avenging hers.

“I don’t think anything. I know Bella is my mate. Not only have we been together for almost three decades we exchanged marks.”Victoria pointed to the bite mark on her neck.

“Why does Bella have two marks then?”Kate wanted to know why Victoria would have bitten Bella on the neck twice as it was not something usually done as it made the mating mark less prominent.

“Only one of my marks is from Victoria.”Bella told her.

Rosalie was almost afraid to ask but she did anyway.“Who is the other one from?”

“Edward.”Bella said.

“What do you mean Edward bit you?”Rosalie would have known if Edward had seen Bella again. The boy would have bragged about it when Carlisle made his last visit to the Denali.

“You guys had left me and were gone maybe three weeks when Edward came back. In that time the wolves were keeping me safe because they thought Victoria was trying to kill me. Something that Edward lied about. I thought I was safe because of the wolves so I was hanging out in the woods. It was easier for them to protect me there because they could be in their wolf forms and run patrols. Edward slipped through their defenses. I didn’t pay him any attention because he made a huge production out of how he never wanted me and I was just a toy your family played with and got sick of. I was depressed about that for a minute but got over it quickly. Anyway he started talking about how he finally had me alone just like he always wanted. How annoying it was that he had to play the caring boyfriend. I honestly didn’t know what the fuck he was talking about until Victoria showed up.”Bella smiled at her mate.

“I should have gotten to you sooner.”Victoria would never forgive herself for not preventing what happened to Bella.

“You got there before it was too late.”Bella didn’t blame Victoria for Edward’s actions.

“Too late for what.”Kate was on the edge of her seat. This was not the story they were told about what happened to Bella.

“For Edward to drain me then kill me.”Bella told her.”When he caught sight of Victoria he panicked and bit me on the neck trying to get as much of my blood as he could before he had to flee because he knew that he no match for Victoria. When she made a move to Edward he flung me through the forest where I hit a very tall tree branch and fell to the forest floor causing my spine to severe from my body. Victoria knowing that if she let me change Edward would be my sire sucked out his venom and then added her own. The damage to my spine was too much for even the venom to heal and left me paralyzed.”

“That fucker.”Rosalie fully believed Bella’s story. It also made her question why Alice hadn’t seen it.”Why did your futures go blank?”

“Bella is a shield. It’s mental and physical. She can block Alice’s visions of us. It blocked mine because I was with her all the time until she mastered the block.”Victoria explained.

“What block?”Tanya wasn’t sure what to think of everything they just learned. Like Rosalie Tanya wondered why Alice didn’t see it.

“I can use my own shield to build a block around anyone’s mind I want making them immune to mental gifts. Be it human, vampire, shifter it doesn’t matter. The block can’t be beaten.”Bella said.

“That’s amazing.”Tanya had never heard of anything like that before.”Would you be willing to give us the blocks?”

“Bella will not be doing anything for Cullen lovers.”Victoria wouldn’t allow it.

“We aren’t Cullen lovers. As a matter of fact I was the one who reported Carlisle to the queens about using the sire bond to force me away from Bella and allow Edward to make a false claim.”Rosalie hated the Cullens with a passion.

“I heard about you breaking the sire bond. That and you joining the Denali is the reason we have left you alone all this time.”Bella told her.

“What do you mean you left her alone?”Irina asked.

“Have you spoken to the Cullens lately?”Bella was curious to know what type of contact the Denali had with the coven.

Tanya shook her head.”They visited a few years after Rosalie joined us trying to get her and the rest of our coven to go before the queens and ask them to allow them to have a larger coven again. We declined and after words were exchanged we haven’t heard from them since.”

“You haven’t even heard rumors of what Carlisle or the rest of them were up to?”Victoria was surprised that the Denali didn’t keep in touch with Carlisle.

“No we didn’t agree with his actions and cut ties with him and the rest of the coven. We even sent Emmett and his mate on their way when they tried to join us.”Tanya hadn’t even considered taking in any of the rest of the Cullens after Rosalie told them about all their misdeeds and how they all played a role in keeping Rosalie away from Bella.

“Well that’s too bad because if you had kept in touch you would have heard all about how horrible their lives have become.”Victoria told her.

“What happened to them?”Kate had feeling that whatever happened Bella and Victoria were responsible for it.

“I’ve always loved computers and in my human life had been accepted into MIT to pursue a degree in technology there.”Bella said.

“You were planning on going to college?”Rosalie had heard that Bella was begging to be changed.

“Of course I was planning on going to college.”Bella had been very vocal about her plans.

“I thought that you didn’t want to go to college and wanted Edward to change you before you got older so you would look the same age.”That had been the story Rosalie had been told by all of her family.

“Turning into a vampire was the farthest thing from my mind. It was Edward pushing for me to marry him and then he wanted to change me on our honeymoon. He was using the Volturi has a reason it had to be done.”Bella told her.

“Wait it was Edward’s idea to get married?”Rosalie had been told Bella was the one who wanted to get married.

“I had told him no dozens of times but he wouldn’t listen. He also wouldn’t listen to me when I broke up with him more than once. When he told me you guys were leaving I was beyond relieved that I was getting away from him.”Bella remembered that she had spent two days mourning the loss of the family that had adopted her. It was Leah Clearwater who got her out of funk reminding her that she didn’t actually like the Cullens and that with them gone Bella could finally live the life she wanted.

“You broke up with him?”Tanya had been there when the Cullens visited their home after they left Bella. Edward had been distraught telling everyone how much Bella had loved him but how it was for the best that they left her. Alice tried saying Bella would be suicidal if they didn’t return.

Bella nodded.”Many times. I knew Edward’s focus on me was unhealthy. He made me feel extremely unsafe around him. That’s why I knew that I was being lied to about the mate bond. There was no way I would feel scared of my mate even if I was human. I mean the family tried to make me scared of Rosalie and all I felt for her was fondness and a kinship in the fact that we were both stuck with the Cullens.”

“You didn’t hate me when you were human?”Rosalie thought that Bella couldn’t stand her. That being another lie her family told her.

“Not at all. I could tell you were just as stuck as I was. When you all left I felt horribly sorry for you because you had to go with them when I was allowed to stay behind.”Bella had remembered thinking about how nice it would have been for Rosalie to have stayed.

“I wish I had known.”Not that it would have changed much but Rosalie would have liked to know her mate didn’t hate her.

“How did you get away from the Cullens?”Victoria knew the basics but not everything.

“The night that Alice claimed Bella died I was enraged that I had been forced to leave my mate behind when such a huge threat was after her. That rage mixed with the grief and loss I felt built until I was to angry I attacked Carlisle. He tried to use the sire bond to get me to stop but it didn’t work. After I realized that the bond was broken I packed a bag full of clothing and essentials and went to Italy and reported Carlisle for his crimes. When they were before the queens Carlisle and Edward tried to deny everything but Sulpicia read both of them and ordered the Cullen coven be disbanded and that Carlisle and Edward were not allowed to be in the same coven.”Rosalie thought it was the perfect punishment for the pair.

“Wait if Sulpicia read Edward then she would have known about Bella right?”Irina figured the queen knew everything.

“She knew but didn’t say anything because she thought Bella was dead and didn’t want to hurt Rosalie emotionally more than she was.”Victoria told her.

“How do you know that?”Tanya asked.

“She told me herself. Although she never mentioned the mate bond.”Victoria wondered why the queen hadn’t.

“You know how protective she is. She probably thought that it would upset me.”Bella wouldn’t be surprised if all three queens knew about the bond. She wanted to be angry about it but understood why they withheld the information.

“I will still be having words with her.”Victoria was going to remind the queens that she wouldn’t put up with them withholding information about Bella. No matter if it would upset Bella or not.

“Well she knows they are here so she is probably expecting that call and is brainstorming with Didyme and Athenodora on ways to get you to forgive them.”Bella said.

“Why would the queens care about upsetting you and Victoria?”Rosalie didn’t know why the queens would care about her mate and Victoria.

“I have a familiar bond with them. They are my mothers.”Bella smiled at the looks of shock the four women were giving her.

“You are the Volturi Princess.”Tanya had heard the rumors of the queens finding their bond child but nobody had seen the girl to confirm it.

Bella pulled a necklace out from underneath her shirt and held up the Volturi crest pendant.”I am.”

“Shit.”Kate mumbled.

“If you are their daughter why didn’t the queens punish the Cullens worse for what they did?”Irina asked.

“I didn’t meet the queens until about fifteen years after I was turned. I had just had a breakthrough with the synthetic blood and knew that queens would want to be informed of such a discovery. After I met them and told them my story they were enraged. I had to talk them out of killing all of the Cullens. They only agreed to leave them alone after I told them what I had already been doing.”Bella told her.

“Which brings us back to what happened with the Cullens?”Rosalie wanted to know what Bella had done to get revenge.

“Like I told you I had been very good with computers.”Bella said getting back to the story.”Well after I was turned I waited until my newborn years was over and went to MIT like I had originally planned.”

“Wait.”Kate cut in.”How were you able to attend college in such a sunny state?”

Victoria smirked.”I’m afraid if we tell you we will have to kill you.”

“Is it bad?”Rosalie asked.

Bella smacked Victoria on the arm.”Stop it. No it isn’t bad. Part of my physical shield blocks uv rays. Meaning if a vampire stand within a certain distance of me they like myself won’t sparkle in the sun.”

“Shit.”Kate repeated.

“That means you can go anywhere in the world you want to?”Tanya couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be able to travel anywhere in the world anytime they wanted.

Bella nodded.”Not only myself and Victoria travel regularly but the queens and many of royal guard have gone trips all over the world with us.”

“You travel with the queens and the royal guard?”Irina felt that was the most unbelievable thing they had been told.

“We just got back from a trip to Egypt where Athenodora strapped me to her back and together with Victoria we explored a newly unearthed temple they found in the desert.”Bella liked to explore places before the humans cleared everything out so they could get the treasure before they did.

Rosalie rubbed her forehead positive she felt the beginning of a headache coming on.”Did you just say that Queen Athenodora strapped you to her back so that you could explore a temple that hasn’t been visited in thousands of years and has who knows how many unknown defensive measures inside?”

“Victoria was there as well so I was perfectly safe.”Bella knew with the warrior queen and Victoria by her side nothing would happen to her.

“Get back to what happened to the Cullens.”Tanya was interested in hearing more about Bella’s adventures but wanted to know what happened to their former cousins.

“So I went to MIT where I learned a ton of stuff about technology. That led to a job offer from NASA. Which I took.”Bella was once again cut off before she could finish.

“You worked for NASA?”Kate asked in disbelief.

“I worked there for 8 years before moving on to the private sector.”Bella told her.

“What did you do in the private sector?”Rosalie felt very proud of the fact that her mate worked for NASA.

“I worked for a robotics firm for 5 years then I worked in the medical field focusing my studies on blood and how to replicate it as I personally can’t hunt and needed a way to feed if I was ever left on my own.”Bella smiled at Victoria when she kissed her cheek.

“You’ll never be alone with me around.”Victoria promised.

“I know.”Bella did know.

“Back to the Cullens.”The synthetic blood was just another thing Tanya was going to ask Bella about later.

“So while I was working I learned how to do a bunch of things with computers. Like hack any website I want and also create fake digital identities for anyone in the world.”Bella said.”My first victim was Carlisle. He of course went back to his job as a doctor. I got online and created a bunch of malpractice lawsuits against the identity he was using at the time. I then bombarded the hospital’s website with posts asking why they were letting a man with that reputation work there. It took about two weeks before he was fired.”

“You got Carlisle fired?”Rosalie thought that was the perfect punishment for him.

“She didn’t just get him fired. Carlisle has been unable to work for the past 25 years.”Victoria told her.

“How did you manage that?”Kate was already making a list of people in her head she was going ask Bella to mess with for her.

“I found out who he was getting fake ids from and contacted the man. Apparently the Cullens use fear to keep him from telling anyone about them not aging. He had no loyalty to them so when I offered him a hundred grand to tell me every new identity he made for them he was all to happy to help. Using the information I have created everything from fake social media pages that were filled with a bunch of offensive content that his potential employers found to messing with his resume and putting a different numbers for his references and when they call it I tell them all kinds of horrible things about him. All this time Carlisle can’t figure what’s going on. He has hired hackers and other computer experts but no one has found me.”Bella explained.

“Shit.”Kate repeated once again fully expected to say it more in the future.

“He must be pissed he can’t be a doctor.”Irina knew all about Carlisle’s mission to help humans.

“He tried to set up a private practice twice. The first time Bella put him on the national sex offender registry and I spray painted the word rapist on the building. The second time Bella posted a bunch of horrible things on the town’s social media page about Carlisle that enraged the residents so much they held a protest outside the practice to demand Carlisle leave.”Victoria had seen the whole thing from a distance and recorded it for Bella. The pair had laughed hysterically when they watched it.

“He has tried to do other jobs as well including working in the science field and being a research librarian but I always stop it from happening.”Bella would continue to stop it in the future as well.

“What did you do with the others?”Rosalie was excited to find out what happened with her former siblings.

“Emmet and Nancy were very easy to deal with. Their plan was to join another coven after they finally broke off from Carlisle. I knew that they were going to use their wealth and Emmett’s strength as a bargaining chip. So I hacked into their bank account and transferred all their money to charity. As for Emmett’s strength I put out a rumor on some prominent vampire social media pages that Emmett lied about his strength and had been beaten badly by a newborn who would have killed him if his mate hadn’t saved him. I had posted on the sight many times before giving useful information so those who saw it trusted my word. As of a year ago the pair are still living on an isolated property that belongs to Carlisle. It’s one of the few I’ve allowed him to keep.”Bella thought isolation was the greatest punishment for someone as social as Emmett and his mate were.

“What do you mean you allowed him to keep?”Irina was impressed with Bella’s choice of punishment for Emmet and his mate. She imagined they were very unhappy with life if they were away from society.

“I control not only how much money each of the Cullens have I also control what they own. I systematically sold off most of Carlisle’s properties to include Esme’s Island. It was done legally and there is no way Carlisle to fight it. He has tried numerous times but I am very good at what I do so he has lost every time.”Bella had made sure that there was no way for Carlisle to stop her before she put her plan in motion.

“You control all their money as well?”Tanya was beginning to understand that Bella wasn’t someone you wanted as an enemy.

“Much to Alice’s displeasure I do.”Bella said.

“How do you work that around Alice’s stock market visions?”Rosalie knew that the Cullens had made their fortune due to Alice’s gift.

“How I punish Alice and Jasper is that every day I log into their bank account and withdraw all but five hundred dollars. Every day like clock work. When Alice decided to give tips to Charlotte and Peter whom they were traveling with initially I did the same to their accounts. When they kicked Alice and Jasper out of their coven I returned everything I took. So now Alice and Jasper live off of a $500 a day allowance. If they try and just withdraw the five hundred in cash I don’t give them the money the next day. So for the last three decades Alice and Jasper have been living in vampire poverty on one of Carlisle’s smallest properties in the middle of nowhere.”Bella knew that hitting Alice in the pocket book was the best punishment she could give.

Kate laughed.”Oh man she must be so pissed.”

“I am now even happier I declined to let any of them join our coven.”Tanya couldn’t imagine the physiological trauma having Bella targeting you would cause.

“So the only one left is Edward.”Irina bet what was done to Edward was even more extreme.

“No you forgot Esme.”Victoria reminded her.

“Everyone forgets Esme.”Kate easily overlooked that vampire every time she saw her.

“Esme just like the rest was easy to deal with. Victoria visited all the properties we let them have and ruined the landscaping for miles around the houses.”Bella told them.

“I ripped up all the lawns and plants and then poured bleach on the exposed soil. Nothing is going to grow on any of the properties I visited.”Victoria was proud of her work.

“That will hurt Esme badly. She loves her plants more than she loves her fake children.”Rosalie had seen the way Esme would overreact if something happened to one of her plants or if someone messed up her grass.

“Ok now all that’s left is Edward.”Kate wanted to know what was done to the mind reader.

“After taking all his money I did what I did with Emmett and ruined his reputation. I posted about how he was a mind reader who blackmailed people using their thoughts as leverage and warned any coven he approached that he couldn’t be trusted. It wasn’t two days after I posted my warning that the leader of a group of nomads said they encountered him. Apparently Edwards was trying to find a new coven. The leader said that when confronted about his gift Edward denied having one. Knowing he was lying the leader refused to let him join them and sent him on his way. That started a domino effect of different covens and single vampires posting about being approached by Edward. I actually got a few message that were obviously Edward trying to find out who I was and how I knew so much information about him. I never replied of course.”Bella would never reply to Edward.

“Is that all you did to him?”Rosalie was disappointed that Bella didn’t do something more extreme.

“Of course not.”Bella was somewhat insulted Rosalie would think she would let Edward off so easily.”With no money and his reputation in ruins Edward went to the Romanians to see if they would take him in. I found out through someone posting about overhearing him in a vampire bar talking about it. Before Edward got there I reached out to the Romanians to make a deal.”

“You made a deal with the Romanians?!”Kate couldn’t believe that Bella would even dare align with the former kings.

“I wasn’t helping them overthrow the queens so no laws were broken. Plus my mothers know about it and fully support my decision.”Bella told her.”Anyway I made a deal with the Romanians. If they kept Edward in their dungeons until I told them to release him plus gave him regular beating I would give both kings the block. They of course agreed so Edward was kept waiting in the castle while the kings were making the trip to see me and get the blocks. Once they returned they spoke to Edward to get confirmation the blocks worked and once they had it they captured him and put him in their dungeon where has been receiving regular beatings ever since.”

“Shit.”Kate would have never thought to make a deal with the Romanians to take care of an enemy.

“That’s why we haven’t heard from him for decades.”Tanya had always wondered what happened to Edward. She had expected him to reach out to her a long time ago.

“Why didn’t you ever come after me?”Rosalie was more than happy with how Bella punished Edward. She just wonder why Bella didn’t focus her revenge on Rosalie as well.

“Because deep down I knew you were stuck. The situation with the Cullens has been talked about hundreds of times but in all those conversations everyone always agrees that you Rosalie were a victim. I’m not sure why my mothers didn’t say anything about the mate bond with me but even they defend you. I have never held any bad feelings towards you. When I started going after the Cullens you weren’t even on my radar to make suffer.”Bella hadn’t cared about her because Rosalie had moved on from the Cullens.

“They told me all about the sire bond thing but they didn’t say anything about the mate bond.”Victoria wasn’t sure how she felt about Rosalie being Bella’s mate. She not only didn’t want to share Bella Rosalie was walking reminder of a horrible time in Bella’s life.

“They will be calling soon so you can ask them then.”Bella figured her mothers were just giving them a chance to talk before they called.

“So what happens now?”Rosalie asked.

“I guess I’m the one who has to answer that question.”Bella honestly didn’t know what was going to happen.”How about Victoria and I give you all a tour of the grounds and we can talk.”

“That’s fine.”Victoria liked that because they would be able to defend themselves if someone decided to attack. Not that her gift was telling her they would be a problem.

“I would like that.”Kate wanted to see all the cool stuff Bella had. That and ask about the robots because Victoria mentioned they had weapons that shot fire.

“We are alright with that as well.”Tanya hoped the tour would give Bella some time to warm up to them. That way she would be more willing to give them the blocks and access to the synthetic blood. Plus whatever else that would help vampires that Tanya was sure she had.

“I’m fine with that.”Rosalie would prefer to spend time with Bella alone but would take what she could get.

“Vic would you be so kind?”Bella held up her arms.

“Of course darling.”Victoria happily scooped Bella up in her arms and held her bridal style. Having to carry Bella most places was the only good thing that came out of her being paralyzed.”We will start with the garage.”

“Good idea.”Rosalie was excited to see what the garage held. Following after Victoria Rosalie wondered how Bella got around and if she was mostly carried places. Rosalie wouldn’t mind carrying Bella. She just wondered if there was a way for Bella to be more independent. Then again if there was Bella probably would have found it by now. The girl was beyond smart. Rosalie couldn’t believe Bella actually worked for NASA. That and she invented flavored synthetic blood. Rosalie hoped that she would get a chance to try different flavors in the future. Not only was it nice to be able to taste something after so long the synthetic blood took away all of Rosalie’s thirst. There was absolutely no burn in the back of her throat like had been since she had woken up as vampire. She felt better as well. Her sense were sharper and she felt more alert. Then there was the fact she was going to be able to sleep. That was definitely something that she would want to experience more than once. Deciding to bring it up later Rosalie was going focus on seeing all the wonders that Bella was most likely going to show her. Rosalie had feeling that she was going to be shocked more than once before the tour was over.
