*Bella's POV*
The school ngày really flew bởi - but of course that's time for you. Always rushing by.
I was the complete center of attention today,- something I do not enjoy, but have grown use to over the millenniums - and I've become 'friends' with a couple of boy's named Mike, Eric, Tyler, and Ben. And two girl's named Jessica and Angela.
One girl, Jessica, invited me to sit with them at their lunch bàn - well, at least I won't be sitting alone. . .
And then I smelled them. Five ma cà rồng were sitting in the lunchroom in front of me. Normally it is quite easy to find and distinguish their scent - because normally they'll have traces of human blood in hoặc on their undead bodies.
But these ma cà rồng were different, the blood they have within them isn't human. . . it's something else. . . something I can't identify.
But, nontheless, I must protect my mind since a few of their kind have special 'gifts' that could destroy (or try, anyway) me with just their minds. Using the ability I picked up from my fellow Confessor sisters, I put up a tường - hoặc a shield that can become a barrier if I choose - around my mind. No one would be able to get in my head - a place where no one should ever go.
Only a một giây had passed and I've already learned that I have enemies within the walls in front of me, and I've protected myself against those enemies.
"Thank bạn Jessica, that is very kind of you," I spoke to her in my clear, ringing-like-bells voice, making my presence known to them - whoever them are.
I walked into the loud lunchroom, holding my head high and staring straight at mine and Jessica's destination - the lunch line.
I could feel one of the ma cà rồng staring at me - his hoặc her eyes boring into my back while another simply glanced my way and then away. Well, it seems I have their attention, hoặc one of them at least.
I grabbed a tray of thực phẩm with the chattery Jessica, paid for it, and then I followed her to a large bàn crowded with people I did know, and then some I didn't know.
When I sat down, I immediately turned my head to view the ma cà rồng - why would they even be here of all places? It just doesn't make sense. . .
All five of them were sitting at a distant bàn beside the windows. All of them were looking away in different directions with trays of untouched thực phẩm in front of them. Well, I guess they do have to put on a human charade since they're here, in school, with humans. Gosh this coven is so confusing! This is the strangest one I've ever come across!
Their were two females and three males. The biggest, most threatening one had dark hair and was sitting beside the most breathtakingly blond and beautiful vampire I had ever seen. The tiếp theo male had blond hair also and was tense all over - probably trying to maintain his self-control with all of these humans here. The other female was beside the blond male and she was the most tiniest vampire with short, spiky black hair. The tiếp theo male was sitting beside the tiny female. He was lanky, less bulky than the other two male's, but definitely thêm boyish, probably the youngest of this coven. He had an unusual shade of bronze, tousled hair. . .
And then he met my curious gaze with a curious gaze of his own, and I quickly looked down. Those were the same eyes that were practically boring into my back earlier.
But his eyes were. . . gold? I didn't understand this. . . is he wearing contacts maybe? His eyes should be crimson hoặc blood red! hoặc even black, which signified thirst.
"Who are they?" I asked Jessica, sitting in front of me, and I pointed them out with my chin while keeping my eyes down. There's something. . . different about them and I have to find out if that difference is good hoặc bad.
"The Cullens. They're Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids - they moved down here from Alaska like. . . a few years ago," she explained and I was immediately appalled.
Cullens? Alaska? There's no way. . . that's them? The family of ma cà rồng the Denali Clan told me about? What a coincidence that I would pick the same town the other 'vegetarian family' was living in too. This is unbelievable.
While Jessica began telling me about the Cullens, my mind drifted back. . . back to when I first met Tanya, Kate, Irina, Eleazor, and Carmen. The Denali Clan.
The tiếp theo chapter will be a long one! Plz bình luận and rate, tình yêu bạn all!
