was completely eliminated。 The immortal children became unmentionable�察�a taboo。 

;When I lived with the Volturi�察�I met two immortal children�察�so I know firsthand the appeal they had。 
Aro studied the little ones for many years after the catastrophe they'd caused was over。 You know his 
inquisitive disposition�察�he was hopeful that they could be tamed。 But in the end�察�the decision was 
unanimous�此�the immortal children could not be allowed to exist。; 

I'd all but forgotten the Denali sisters' mother when the story returned to her。 

;It is unclear precisely what happened with Tanya's mother�察─�Carlisle had said。 ;Tanya�察�Kate�察�and irina 
were entirely oblivious until the day the Volturi came for them�察�their mother and her illegal creation 
already their prisoners。 It was ignorance that saved Tanya's and her sisters' lives。 Aro touched them and 
saw their total innocence�察�so they were not punished with their mother。 

;None of them had ever seen the boy before�察�or dreamed of his existence�察�until the day they watched 
him burn in their mother's arms。 I can only guess that their mother had kept her secret to protect them 
from this exact outcome。 But why had she created him in the first place�拭�Who was he�察�and what had he 
meant to her that would cause her to cross this most uncrossable of lines�拭�Tanya and the others never 
received an answer to any of these questions。 But they could not doubt their mother's guilt�察�and I don't 
think they've ever truly forgiven her。 

;Even with Aro's perfect assurance that Tanya�察�Kate�察�and Irina were innocent�察�Caius wanted them to 
burn。 Guilty by association。 They were lucky that Aro felt like being merciful that day。 Tanya and her 
sisters were pardoned�察�but left with unhealing hearts and a very healthy respect for the law___; 

I'm not sure where exactly the memory turned into a dream。 One moment it seemed that I was listening 
to Carlisle in my memory�察�looking at his face�察�and then a moment later I was looking at a gray�察�barren 
field and smelling 

the thick scent of burning incense in the air。 I was not alone there。 

The huddle of figures in the center of the field�察�all shrouded in ashy cloaks�察�should have terrified me 
!they could only be Volturi�察�and I was�察�against what they'd decreed at our last meeting�察�still human。 But 
I knew�察�as I sometimes did in dreams�察�that I was invisible to them。 

Scattered all around me were smoking heaps。 I recognized the sweetness in the air and did not examine 
the mounds too closely。 I had no desire to see the faces of the vampires they had executed�察�half afraid 
that I might recognize someone in the smoldering pyres。 

The Volturi soldiers stood in a circle around something or someone�察�and I heard their whispery voices 
raised in agitation。 I edged closer to the cloaks�察�compelled by the dream to see whatever thing or person 
they were examining with such intensity。 Creeping carefully between two of the tall hissing shrouds�察�I 
finally saw the object of their debate�察�raised up on a little hillock above them。 

He was beautiful�察�adorable�察�just as Carlisle had described。 The boy was a toddler still�察�maybe two years 
of age。 Light brown curls framed his cherubic face with its round cheeks and full lips。 And he was 
trembling�察�his eyes closed as if he was too frightened to watch death coming closer every second。 

I was struck with such a powerful need to save the lovely�察�terrified child that the Volturi�察�despite all their 
devastating menace�察�no longer mattered to me。 I shoved past them�察�not caring if they realized my 
presence。 Breaking free of them altogether�察�I sprinted toward the boy。 



                                                                                                                Page 23

Only to stagger to a halt as I got a clear view of the hillock that he sat upon。 It was not earth and rock�察�
but a pile of human bodies�察�drained and lifeless。 Too late not to see these faces。 I knew them all 
!Angela�察�Ben�察�Jessica�察�Mike。。。。 And directly beneath the adorable boy were the bodies of my father 
and my mother。 

The child opened his bright�察�bloodred eyes。 

3。 BIG DAY 

My own eyes flew open。 

I lay shivering and gasping in my warm bed for several minutes�察�trying to break free of the dream。 The 
sky outside my window turned gray and then pale pink while I waited for my heart to slow。 

When I was fully back to the reality of my messy�察�familiar room�察�I was a little annoyed with myself。 What 
a dream to have the night before my wedding� �That's what I got for obsessing over disturbing stories in 
the middle of the night。 

Eager to shake off the nightmare�察�I got dressed and headed down to the kitchen long before I needed to。 
First I cleaned the already tidy rooms�察�and then when Charlie was up I made him pancakes。 I was much 
too keyed up to have any interest in eating breakfast myself!I sat bouncing in my seat while he ate。 

;You're picking up Mr。 Weber at three o'clock�察─�I reminded him。 

;I don't have that much to do today besides bring the minister�察�Bells。 I'm not likely to forget my only 
job。; Charlie had taken the entire day off for the wedding�察�and he was definitely at loose ends。 Now and 
then�察�his eyes flickered furtively to the closet under the stairs�察�where he kept his fishing gear。 

;That's not your only job。 You also have to be dressed and presentable。; 

He scowled into his cereal bowl and muttered the words ;monkey suit; under his breath。 

There was a brisk tapping on the front door。 

;You think you have it bad�察─�I said�察�grimacing as I rose。 ;Alice will be working on me all day long。; 

Charlie nodded thoughtfully�察�conceding that he did have the lesser ordeal。 I ducked in to kiss the top of 
his head as I passed!he blushed and harrumphed !and then continued on to get the door for my best 
girlfriend and soon´to´be sister。 

Alice's short black hair was not in its usual spiky do!it was smoothed into sleek pin curls around her 
pixie face�察�which wore a contrastingly businesslike expression。 She dragged me from the house with 
barely a ;Hey�察�Charlie; 

called over her shoulder。 

Alice appraised me as I got into her Porsche。 

;Oh�察�hell�察�look at your eyes� ─�She tsked in reproach。 ;What did you do�拭�Stay up all night�拭─�




                                                                                                              Page 24

;Almost。; 

She glowered。 ;I've only allotted so much time to make you stunning�察�Bella!you might have taken 
better care of my raw material。; 

;No one expects me to be stunning。 I think the bigger problem is that I might fall asleep during the 
ceremony and not be able to say 1 do' at the right part�察�and then Edward will make his escape。; 

She laughed。 ;I'll throw my bouquet at you when it gets close。; 

;Thanks。; 

;At least you'll have plenty of time to sleep on the plane tomorrow。; 

I raised one eyebrow。 Tomorrow�察�I mused。 If we were heading out tonight after the reception�察�and we 
would still be on a plane tomorrow。。。 well�察�we weren't going to Boise�察�Idaho。 Edward hadn't dropped a 
single hint。 I wasn't too stressed about the mystery�察�but it was strange not knowing where I would be 
sleeping tomorrow night。 Or hopefully not sleeping 。。。 

Alice realized that she'd given something away�察�and she frowned。 

;You're all packed and ready�察─�she said to distract me。 

It worked。 ;Alice�察�I wish you would let me pack my own things� ─�

;It would have given too much away。; 

;And denied you an opportunity to shop。; 

;You'll be my sister officially in ten short hours。。。 it's about time to get over this aversion to new clothes。; 

I glowered groggily out the windshield until we were almost to the house。 

;Is he back yet�拭─�I asked。 

;Don't worry�察�he'll be there before the music starts。 But you don't get to see him�察�no matter when he gets 
back。 We're doing this the traditional way。; 

I snorted。 ;Traditional� ─�

;Okay�察�aside from the bride and groom。; 

;You know he's already peeked。; 

;Oh no!that's why I'm the only one who's seen you in the dress。 I've been very careful to not think 
about it when he's around。; 

;Well�察─�I said as we turned into the drive�察 �I see you got to reuse your graduation decorations。; Three 
miles of drive were once again wrapped in hundreds of thousands of twinkle lights。 This time�察�she'd 
added white satin bows。 




                                                                                                                  Page 25

;Waste not�察�want not。 Enjoy this�察�because you don't get to see the inside decorations until it's time。; She 
pulled into the cavernous garage north of the main house�察�Emmett's big Jeep was still gone。 

;Since when is the bride not allowed to see the decorations�拭─�I protested。 

;Since she put me in charge。 I want you to get the full impact
