Chapter 6: Volturi Ball

(Chloe's POV)

I've been with the Volturi for several months now. Athena and Damien were right when they said the Volturi would keep me busy. After my basic training, I went on missions with other members of the lower guard. I really liked Afton as a mentor because he's very patient and kind. I've also met his mate a couple times and thought she was very nice. She reminded me of a mother because she would always be lecturing someone or listening to their problems.

Renata and I have become very close friends, but I don't see her very much because she is Aro's personal guard. I think we got along because we're both shy and like to hand out in the library. I've also made several friends in the lower guard; Jamie, Seth, and Riley are my closest friends.

Jamie was born in Greece, like me. She moved to Rome when she was ten years old. Jamie was turned by accident when she was twenty. A lower member of the Volturi found her and brought her back to Volterra ten years ago. She's stayed with the Volturi for those years because she has nowhere else to go. Jamie was a little taller than me and she had short black hair that ended right at her shoulders. We both had a lot in common when it came to interests so we became very good friends.

Riley and Seth grew up in Ireland. They've been best friends since they were eleven years old. When they were nineteen, they were turned by a nomad who was trying to build up an army. Instead of helping that nomad, they came to Volterra and informed the ancients about what was happening. They've been with the Volturi for three eight years now mainly because they have nothing else to do. Riley was a lot of fun to be with, but he was a huge flirt. Jamie and I enjoyed watching him flirt with girls and fail epically. Seth was very laid back and easy going. He didn't argue or complain, he just went with the flow. Seth was very easy to talk to which is why I prefer him over Riley.

"What dress are you going to wear to the ball?" Jamie asked as we were shopping at Volterra's mall. The Volturi were unbelievably rich and the ancients allow guards to use their money. While the elite guards have access to all the money and cars they want; each member of the lower guard only had a certain amount of money to spend. The more we do for the Volturi, the more money we get on our cards.

"Not sure," I replied, "I don't have any dresses."

"Well let's go shop for dresses." Jamie smiled dragging me into a dress store.

"How about this dress?" I asked stepping out of a dressing room to show Jamie my sixth dress. It was a long strapless red dress.

"Perfect," she smiled standing up with her dress, "It matches your eyes too

"Perfect," she smiled standing up with her dress, "It matches your eyes too. Tomorrow night is the ball so I'll help you tomorrow afternoon with your hair and makeup."

"Sound good," I replied smiling as we left to buy our dresses.

"I really love your hair Chloe." Jamie said as she styled my hair for the ball. Jamie was already dressed in her dark green dress with her hair and makeup done.
