~Raven's POV~

Yawning and opening my eyes, I try to stretch my arms only to find them being pinned down. I let out a soft giggle before turning around to see Alec.

"Morning angel." The twins say.

"Morning." I reply as they release my arms.

"Sleep well?" Jane asks.

"Yes. I did." I answer. "Thank you for asking."

"You're welcome. Are you hungry? We can get you something to eat." Alec says.

"I'd love that. But first can I freshen up. I always take a shower every day." I reply.

"Of course. Let me help you." Jane says helping me climb out of the bed. As we walk to the bathroom, I noticed that Felix and Demetri were missing.

"Where's Demetri and Felix?!" I ask panicked.

"Whoa, angel, please remain calm. They had just switched out 15 minutes ago to go feed before seeing you. In fact, they are preparing breakfast as we speak. Just relax and take your time with your shower." Jane answered.

"You sure? I wouldn't want to make them wait long." I said while grabbing a towel from the sink counter.

"It's alright. Trust us. Just relax." Alec replies.

Leaving me to shower, I strip and turn the water on. Feeling the tension slip away from my muscles. Taking a deep breath, I took the pomegranate body wash and scrubbed the best I could. Finishing off with my mint shampoo, I turned the water off.

"Are you done?" I shriek and nearly jump when Jane suddenly appeared.

"Don't scare me like that, Jane." I scold her, then calmed down.

"I'm sorry." Jane apologies, I could see the tears building up.

"No, I'm sorry, please don't cry." I pull her into a hug, forgetting that I was wet and naked.

"But you should be angry with me, I did come in unannounced." Jane replies, pulling away then closing her eyes. "I set your clothes on the sink counter. I'll let you get dressed." She turned to leave, but I gently grabbed her hand before she could.

"Wait." I say.

"Yes?" Jane asks.

"Can you help me?" I ask as a blush appeared on my cheeks.

Her eyes widened as she smiles softly at me.

"I'd love to." She answers as she took the towel and started patting me dry.

"You are so beautiful, angel." Jane whispers into my ear from behind, then peppers kisses into my shoulder.

I gasped then turns to soft moans as her hands wrapped the towel around body then tucked it in. Once the towel was tucked, I felt her hands start to caress my waist.

"I hope this doesn't sound so forward... but I think I'm starting to fall for all four of you." I say in between breaths as I lean back against Jane.

"I'm glad to hear that, angel. And I know the others will be glad to hear that as well." Jane replies before placing a kiss near my ear.

"Is Alec still here?" I ask with a squeak.

"He's right outside. Why don't I let you get dressed?" Jane answers before letting go and walking out.

I quickly get dressed and brush my teeth.

"You look great, fantastic even." Alec compliments.

"Why thank you, Alec." I reply before giving him a hug.

"Jane said you were wondering where I was while you were finishing your shower. Did you need me for something?" Alec asks.

"Yes. I wanted you both here for this." I answer, before cupping Jane's cheeks and pulling her into a kiss.

She was stunned at first, but then melted into it just like me. But instead of getting heated, I pulled away. But not long after, I did the same to Alec. He wasn't as stunned as he pulled me closer by my waist and held my close to his chest as our lips moved in sync.

"That was amazing." Alec says, our foreheads touching.

"I agree." Jane replies, hugging me from behind.

"I loved it." I say, making them both purr. "And as much as I enjoy your purring, I would love to eat something now, please."

"Of course, angel. We'll take you to the kitchen." Jane replies.

Walking down the hallway, a few guards bowed at me as we arrive at the kitchen. And it was awesome.

"Morning beautiful/love!" Demetri and Felix greet me by pulling me into a hug.

"Morning boys." I hug them back.

"You smell wonderful, love." Demetri comments, setting his face into my neck.

"As in my human/mate scent or my pomegranate body wash?" I ask, slightly teasing.

"Both." All four of them answer, smiling. I blush of course, before I was swiftly picked up off my feet. I was then gently placed on one of the bar stools.

"A little birdie told us you were hungry." Felix jokes.

"Haha, very funny, Felix." I reply with a smirk as Felix and Demetri placed two plates down in front of me.

"That looks absolutely delicious." I compliment before taking a bite. "And it tastes as delicious at it looks."

"We're glad you like it, beautiful. We wanted you to have a full belly before we told you the news." Felix replies.

"What's that?" I ask, before taking a sip of the lemonade.

"Once it gets dark enough outside, we are taking you home so you can get your affairs in order. I mean, if you did want to stay here. We understand if you don't want too." Demetri answered, trying not sound sad.

"Hey, hey, don't talk like that. Of course I want to stay here." I correct him.

"You do?!" They ask surprised.

"Of course I want to. I mean, I think my hormones are kicking in, but my feelings for you all are suddenly growing. And I want nothing more than to be here with you four." I answer. "In fact, there is something that I have to do with you two before I do anything. It is only fair since Alec and Jane were first."

"Do what?" Felix asks.

"This." I answer gripping his cloak collar and pulling him into a kiss. The bar stool gave me some height so he didn't have to bend over much. Moving my hands to his chest as his went to my waist. When I was low on air, I pulled away taking deep breaths. Pecking my lips one last time, Felix took his hands off.

"That was a wonderful kiss, beautiful." Felix says with a sexy smirk. As I blush, Felix stepped away and was replaced with Demetri.

"My turn?" He asks, hopeful. I nod before wrapping my hands around his neck and pulling him close.

Our lips moved in sync as he wraps his arms around my small frame, and moving down towards my butt. Gasping against his lips, I pull away and breathe in air to refill my lungs.

"Are you okay? Was that to fast?" Demetri asks panicked as the others then joined my side.

"I'm fine. I just have never done anything like that before. I'm sorry for pulling away." I answered, tearing up, afraid I hurt his feelings.

"It's okay, love, I shouldn't have tried that so early. It's not your fault." Demetri says.

"Promise?" I ask, a tear falling down my cheek.

"Promise." All four of them answer, Alec stepped forward and used his hand to wipe the tear away with his thumb.

"Would you like some more fruit?" Alec asks. I nod.

Jane and Alec smile before walking to the fridge and pulling out another fruit platter/meat and cheese platter.

"Eat as much as you want. We'll have more ready for you on the jet ride home." Alec says, I nod before taking a cracker.

"Ah, I see our piccola principessa (little princess) is awake and well. How is your food?" The door opened suddenly and the three kings come in.

"Yes. It is very delicious." I replied, enjoying my breakfast.

"We are glad. How are you feeling, dear?" Marcus asks.

"Better, I guess. I'm still trying to accept that I'm pregnant and all." I answer honest.

"Well, we hope that the little ones don't cause you too much trouble. You would make a great mother." Caius says.

"You really think so?" I ask surprised.

"Of course. You are our elite guard's mate. You are family. And with your permission, we'd like to make you our princess one day." Aro answers.

"You're kidding?!" I exclaim shocked.

"We are not, principessa.(princess) We know it is a little soon since your arrival, but we plan to wait a little while before making any big decisions. Like maybe a few months after the babies are born?" Marcus asks.

"I would be honored to be your princess. But, quick question, if I do become princess, would I have to get married to someone to become queen?" I ask curious, but only jump slightly when I hear growls.

"Now, now, calm down, she is only asking." Caius calmly tells my mates. "No, my dear, you do not have to be married to become queen. In fact, many years from now, we may step down from the throne and let you rule us."

"You cannot be serious." I say stunned.

"We are. But do not fret, we will not force this on you so soon. This will be brought up in a later time. Right now, we shall get your affairs in order, then you come back here to relax and enjoy your pregnancy. We shall spoil you to your hearts contents." Aro replies.

"I don't know how to thank you all for this." I say tearing up.

"You don't have to, my dear. You are worth it. You are already becoming part of the family." Marcus replies, before pulling me into a hug.

"Should we tell her? I don't wish to upset her." Aro whispers.

"It's better than keeping secrets from her. We wish to earn and keep her trust. This is the first step." Caius whispers back.

"Tell me what?" I ask, confused. Everyone went silent. "Please, tell me."

"You see my dear, when I first tried to read young Isabella's mind, I couldn't see anything. But then when Edward advised me to try again, I saw her everything thought about you, and one particular one that is not a very good one." Aro explains.

"I'm almost afraid to ask." I comment sadly, only to feel multiple hands rubbing me, soothing. "Continue."

"You see, when Alice had the vision of Edward requesting to die, she and Isabella had a backup plan in case their lives were in danger, which they were. For you see, the real reason they brought you along, was to use you as a bargain chip. They would use your mate bond with the guard to sway our thoughts from harming them. And it seems her hatred for you growing up had grown so much, that she would do all those horrible things to you. And the worst thing of all..... she blackmailed a boy... to rape you. " Aro finishes explaining.

When he finished explaining, everyone looked at me with concerned looks. Because at the end of his explanation, I was crying without realizing.

"She... she hates me that much, that she would do that. I never did anything to her. Why... why would she do this?" I stutter before I sobbed.

Just then, I was wrapped in multiple pairs of arms. They let me cry for awhile, but I stopped when the arms started to pull away, making me calm down a bit.

"You should drink something, angel." Jane says softly to me, before handing me my mason jar refilled with pink lemonade.

I take it and drank it halfway before setting it down. That's when an idea hit me.

"Are they still on trial?" I ask.

"Who, exactly, Raven?" Marcus asks back, surprised by my question.

"Specifically Alice and Bella." I answer.

"Technically yes. We have deemed Edward to be cleared since he hasn't really done anything to you." Aro answered.

"And have you seen into Alice's mind? With your gift?" I ask.

"I have yet to. But I have gotten some information from Isabella about her. Why?" Aro answers.

"What have you found out?" I asked.

"Well, it seemed that Isabella always wanted to have children to get attention, while Alice hated the fact that she wouldn't be able to have kids. When she had a vision of Isabella having someone rape you, she planned on taking your kids from you if you didn't have an abortion." Aro explains.

"WHAT?!!!" I exclaim, only to feel multiple arms wrapped around me, calming my down.

"I think I have a fitting idea for a punishment. But, do you have someone who can identify gifts?" I ask.

"Yes, his name is Eleazar, he belongs to the Denali Coven. We can request for him to come and identify your gift whenever you wish." Aro answered.

"Let's wait till my babies are born. Who knows, their possible gifts may be confused as mime." I tease, rubbing my stomach. Everyone chuckles.

"What is your idea, dear?" Marcus asks.

"You'll just have to wait a see. It'll be a show stopper." I answer with a devious smirk.

"Oh, I think I shall enjoy this." Caius replies also wearing a smirk.

We were now waiting in the throne room. Aro let me sit in his throne as Jane and Alec left to retrieve somethings.

"As we will have future parties to plan, we are very proud to announce our newest member of the royal family. Raven Volturi." Aro announced to the entire guard. Alec and Jane were then by his side with a cloak and jewelry box. Alec graciously took the cloak and wrapped it around my shoulders. I smile as Aro opened the jewelry box to reveal a crown and Volturi crest.

"I cannot thank you all for accepting me into your coven. I will do everything in my power to help in any way I can." I say, "At least until after my pregnancy." I joke.

Everyone smiled, some even chuckled.

"We cannot wait, my dear, but for now, you are to be treated as a princess. Do we make ourselves clear, everyone?" Marcus asked.

Everyone nodded before bowing at me.

"I will never get used to that." I whisper to my mates, they smiled back at me.

"You are all dismissed." Aro waved his arms, the guards all walk out after bowing to me.

"I just got word that the jet is finished with maintenance. You can board anytime you wish, Raven." Marcus states.

"Perfect. I can't wait to go home and see my Dad. Plus, I can't wait to tell him how excited I am that I was accepted into collage here." I replied, ecstatic.

"We are glad you are excited. Shall we get going?" Felix asked holding his hand out to me. I giggle before taking it.

Walking through the castle, Jane happily brought me my bag before helping me into a black car.

Not long, we were driving down an airport towards a jet. Parking the car, I was walked up the stairs to enter the jet. And it was luxurious.

"Wow, this is awesome." I comment before being led into the private seats with Alec. The one with the TV and snack bar.

"Comfortable?" Alec asks sitting next to me.

"Absolutely." I answer before leaning down to lay my head in his lap. Gently stroking my hair, my mates soon joined us, but then the moment gets ruined.

"Woah, how come she's coming with us?! I thought you said she was staying here, Alice?!" A voice that sounded like nails on chalkboard screeched.

I sat right back up, and glared at Isabella being forced to sit down at the table, away from me.

"Well the moment is officially ruined." I mutter, knowing everyone could hear me.

"Why are you wearing their crest?!" Alice asks offended.

"Because I can." I taunt. "Like you need to know official Volturi matters. All that matters is that when I get home you are so busted, Isabella."

"What do you mean by that?!" She asks while trying to stand, only to squirm under Felix's tough grip.

"Aro saw past your pathetic shield, he knows you blackmailed a boy to rape me." I answer.

"You are going to be in serious trouble with your father, plus, you have to face Volturi justice." Demetri says.

"There is no way I'm in trouble." Isabella replies, defensive.

"Like hell you're not! You had your own sister raped just because of your own jealousy issues. You forced your way into our world because you wanted to one up your own sister. And now you and Alice want to take her own child away from her because you both can't your own! How selfish can you two be?! When we get back to Forks I will be telling Carlisle what you two have done." Jane exclaimed, leaving everyone of us shocked.

My mouth was wide open at her outburst, I never would of thought I'd see her do something like that.

"Pain." She said angry.

Both Alice and Isabella started to scream and squirm in pain. Felix held Isabella down in the seat while Demetri did the same with Alice.

"Edward, you are more than welcome to come and join us. We have something we need to talk about." I thought, hoping he would hear.

As I stood up to take Jane's hand, Edward stood up and walks over towards us. Alec growls, but I pecked his cheek to calm him down. Taking Jane's hand, I pulled her to sit with me and Alec.

"Edward, sit. We have a lot to discuss." I say as Jane lets' go of her hold on Isabella and Alice.

Nodding to Alec, he stood up and sealed the door shut, just temporary of course.

"How can I help you, Miss Raven?" Edward asks.

"Edward, drop the status card, just call me Raven for as long as we are traveling. We need to discuss Isabella." I answer. He nods.

"Correct me if I am wrong, but she is your blood singer, am I correct?" I ask.

"Yes. I wanted to suck her dry when I first met her in biology. But overtime, I started to fall for her. But after the James incident, all she wanted was to be like me. That's why I left, so she could live. I still feel the thirst to kill her, and now all I want is to find my mate." Edward answers.

"Aw, I feel bad for Edward. I wish he would find his mate soon." I thought.

"That is very sweet of you, Raven." Edward says, making me blush.

"Stay out of her head, Cullen!" The twins warned.

"It's alright. I would have said it out loud anyway." I tell them, which calmed them down.

"I'll leave you alone to your mates." Edward replied before leaving the unsealed then resealed room.

Jane sat next to me and massages my legs while I laid my head in Alec's lap. He gently massages my head while the plane started to take off. Once we were in the air, I felt my body relax.

"This is going to be a long flight." I mutter before sighing.

"It won't be as long as you think." Alec says with a smirk.

"Huh?" I reply.

"Boys, get in here." Jane said as she opened the door letting Demetri and Felix inside, then sealed the door.

"Surprise!" All four of them exclaim before Felix hands me a giftbox. A small medium sized one. It was a silver box with a royal purple ribbon. Opening the box lid, I was shocked. It was a new phone.

"What... what is this?!" I ask flustered.

"A gift from us and the kings. While the mouth breather was frisked before getting locked in a cell, we found a broken phone. We figured it was yours since the case had R.S. designed on the case. We felt bad since you were basically kidnapped, and forced across seas, so we thought we should make up for it. Do you like it?" Demetri answers, shy.

"Are you kidding?! I love it!" I exclaim taking it out and loving the case.

"We are happy that you do." Felix replies.

Getting up, I hug Jane and brought the others in to hug them as well.

"So, how long till we land?" I ask as Felix sat down and pulled me to sit on his lap.

"Not for a few hours, love." Demetri answers.

"We'll take watch over them for now. We'll switch out when we're halfway to Seattle." Alec says practically dragging Jane along while she groans.

"Got it." Demetri replies taking a seat next to me.

"So, what do we have for entertainment?" I ask, turning the phone on and bringing my legs up to lay across Demetri's lap.

"Well, we have a long flight ahead of us. We have a TV with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max, Prime Video, and the same goes for your phone and you can get any game or stuff on the phone that you want." Felix answers, stroking my thigh.

"A movie sounds nice." I say, leaning my head against his chest.

"Movie it is." Demetri replies taking the remote and selecting Fast and Furious.

"You know what, let's not let the twins suffer. Bring them in here." I said, getting up and unsealed the door.

"Edward, be a dear and watch the prisoners, Jane, Alec come join us in the VIP section." I say grabbing their cloaks and pulled them away.

"VIP Section? Can I come?" Isabella asked.

"No!" Alec, Jane and I answer/shout at her.

Resealing the door, I sat on Felix's lap with my legs on Demetri's lap. While I had Alec and Jane sit in front of us as my hands held theirs.

"Hungry?" Jane asks.

"Yes." I answer, rubbing my stomach. Hoping the tank and cardigan and cloak would cover up my stomach when we get home.

"How about a healthy sweet treat?" Alec asks with a smile as Jane flashed away and returned with a treat that made me smile.

"Have as many as you want. They don't have any sugar, but are made of healthy fruit and minerals for the babies. And we also have fruit smoothies as well." Jane explains.

Smiling, I spend the new few hours enjoying the sun through the special sunroof as we watched a few Fast and Furious movies. Switching places every now and then, I was happy that all four of my mates were getting along with sharing me.

Banana. Not my favorite fruit, but I knew Isabella liked it. Taking initiative, I took the banana smoothie and unsealed the door. Walking over to Isabella, I place the smoothie in front of her.

"What's this? A bribe." She asks, nervous.

"No. A peace offering. I know you like banana's unlike me, so I'm not letting it go to waste. I know you and I have our differences, but there is one thing we have in common. We both love our parents." I answered her.

"Thanks." She said before taking it and immediately drank it fast. "But what does this have to do with our parents?"

"Because once we land, I'm calling mom and telling her that you had me raped, which would give me full rights to our family heritage on our dad's side. And speaking of Dad, he's also going to know about me being raped." I answer before successfully rushing back and sealing the door.

"What?! You can't do this! That heritage is mine. If Dad finds out I'm going to be in big trouble!" She shouts and bangs on the door while being forced back by Edward.

"You should have considered your consequences before your actions." I tell her off before making the room soundproof.

Demetri and Jane laugh at my actions before I snuggled into them. Time had passed, and before I knew it, it was night and we landed.

As we were walking through the airport, I was looking for a bathroom and didn't see someone walking my way. That someone bumped into me and we fell on the ground. Lucky me, not on my stomach.

"I'm so sorry. Are you okay?" The girl asks.

"I'm fine. You're okay." I answer as Demetri helped me up.

"No, it's not okay. I should have been looking." She said, full of guilt.

"Are you okay, miss?" I heard Edward asks.

Looking up, I made sure that my stomach wasn't showing then saw Edward staring at the girl.

"Hmm. Is she his mate? Wow. What a coincidence." I thought as a smile appeared on my face.

"Are you okay?" Alec asks me.

"I'm fine. Promise." I answer, making all four mates relax as I glanced and saw Isabella looking angry at Edward while Alice looked at me angry while being held by Felix.

~Jane's POV~

We finally landed, Edward found his true mate and now we arrived at the Swan house. Alec and Felix flashed away into the shadows as Demetri carried Raven to the door. Knocking on the door, I glare at the Cullens as they walked up with the mouth breather clinging to his arm. She is so lazy and clingy.

Knocking on the door, I hold a sleepy Raven against my side while Mr. Swan starts arguing with Ms. Mouth breather. Finally he ordered her to go to her room leaving him, me, Raven and Demetri.

"Is Raven okay?" He asks.

"Yes. Just a bit tired." I answer. "May I take her to her room? She had a long flight."

"Of course. Her room is the one with the brand-new fingerprint lock. All you have to do is put her thumb on the pad." Mr. Swan replies.

Carefully walking up the stairs, I found the door and used her thumb to open it. Closing it behind me, I pick up Raven and lay her down on her bed.

Taking the blanket and covering her up, I tune into downstairs.

"So, you're related to the deans of the school Raven got accepted into? And the girl that took Raven up to her room is a friend she met in a chatroom from the same school, the girl you volunteered to chaperone to bring my daughter back here?" Mr. Swan asks.

"Yes." Demetri lies, going with the cover story. "Jane is one of the new students to get accepted. My uncles made the chatroom available for applicants so they could chat amongst themselves to get a connection before meeting at school."

"I see. So, are they good friends? She seemed to really care about Raven. They must have been talking for quite a while." Mr. Swan says.

"They have. Jane and her twin brother Alec are like family to my uncles and I. They are like siblings to me. That's another reason I let Jane come with us, she was really close to Raven. And once Jane sets her mind to something, there's no stopping her." Demetri replies.

"Good job, Demetri. Keep up the lies. Once Mr. Swan goes to bed, all four of us will be together with Raven while she sleeps." I thought as I get a text from Alec.

|messages|

Alec V: Still waiting on Alice's mate to join us, but the rest are here. Carlisle is furious at her but not Edward. His mate is upstairs asleep, she was just told the news and took it surprisingly well. He's going to talk to her about the change in the morning.

Jane V: Great. He should be. She was a total bitch! Don't tease me for this, but I am happy that Cullen has his real mate. I hope she really does that all this well.

Alec V: Wow, who would of thought. Sorry, couldn't help sis. :) Me too.

Jane V: Dang it, Alec!

Alec V: How is Raven?

Jane V: She is still asleep from jet lag, she should be waking up soon then fall right back asleep.

Alec V: Okay.
Alec V: Huh, that's weird.

Jane V: What?

Alec V: Edward just got a text from Isabella. He's headed over to you.

Jane V: I'll keep my eye out. Keep me updated on the Cullens, and make sure Felix keeps an eye on the seer.

Alec V: Trust me sister, she's not being let out of our sights until we leave with Raven.

|end of messages|

Putting my phone up, I sat next to the bed and held Raven's hand. Making sure that she and her stomach was covered, I made my presence look like a friend in case Mr. Swan came up. Tuning back in, they were just about done.

"So... she has to leave... so soon?" Mr. Swan asks, sad.

"I'm afraid so. My uncles are worried about her health here with Isabella and want to make sure that she is stable enough for school. She is one of the brightest girls that they have met and have become attached... you could say. We see her as family now." Demetri answers.

"I see. It's very kind of your uncles to treat her as one of their own. I'm sad to know that she leaving again, but I'm happy that she gets a chance to follow her dream. That's all I ever wanted. That's all my parents wanted." Mr. Swan says.

"You have my word, Mr. Swan. My uncles and I will take good care of Raven. She will be well taken cared of. She will be staying in an amazing dorm room along with Jane and Alec. The door rooms are co-ed of course, but they stay separate. Her amenities will be taken care of, and she will be on a full scholarship. You don't have to worry about a thing, Mr. Swan." Demetri replies.

"Wow. That is amazing. My little girl always was talented." Mr. Swan says.

I was about to hear Demetri reply, but the sound of something moving caught my attention. Turning my head, Raven was waking up.

"Where am I?" I hear her ask.

"You're at home. How are you feeling?" I ask.

"Tired." She answers.
