EPILOGUE

7-YEARS LATER

The original Cullen family—sans Edward and Esme—including the new additions of Carli, Charli, and Bella, moved to Seattle, Washington. Bella and her daughters enrolled in the University of Washington. Bella started again as a freshman, The wife of the Chief of Surgery, Carlisle Volturi. Carlisle took the position at Seattle West Hospital. His biological sister Rosalie and her husband Emmett opened an auto mechanics and auto body shop in the area. Rosalie also taught mechanics at the university. Jacob Black worked at the shop. Bella and Carlisle also adopted Carlisle's biological twin sisters Carlie and Charli, when his parents died in a car accident. Rosalie's twin brother Jasper and his wife, Alice, who is the biological brother of Emmett, also live with them. Jasper was attending the University, studying psychology, and would later enroll in Medical school, along with Bella to earn his Ph.D. in Psychiatry. Alice owned a mid-sized, high-end clothing boutique. That was their new cover story. Soon, Bella would be following her dream, working alongside her husband as a doctor.

5 MORE YEARS LATER

It had been a full 20 years since any of the Cullens or Bella had lived in Forks. There were still some, who were young enough, who might remember them, so for the most part, they stayed clear of the town. Bella was now a full M.D.. Jacob Black, now the Chief of the Quileute Tribe, offered her a job as the physician at the tribal clinic since the tribe's blood did not hold the same appeal to Bella even if they weren't shifters. She worked alongside her daughter Charli, who also happened to be married and the imprint of Seth Clearwater. Carlisle, who still worked at Seattle West, would help his wife when needed at the clinic. Carlisle also donated and helped her build the Swan-Black Tribal hospital, in honor of Charlie Swan and Billy Black.

Carlie, who didn't take to a life well among humans, went back to Italy, where she replaces Marcus on the throne. Marcus decided he'd had enough of ruling on the council. Though he still acted as a consultant when needed, he was more content traveling and seeing the world outside of the Castle walls of Volterra. Though no one would ever replace his Didyme, he did find companionship with a young vampire from Greenland, Ingrid.

Carlie became the mate of a young human, who was brought in for trial along with the coven who exposed themselves. The young man, much like her mother, when she learned of the supernatural world, was a very observant young man. He had befriended the coven when his brother became mated to one of the females. His younger brother, David, was still in high school and fell in love with a vampire girl named Mena. Joshua, afraid for his young brother, followed the couple and began to question what was going on. Santiago and Demetri just so happen to be in the area, when they heard the argument between David and Joshua and brought the small coven of four, three males and one female along with the brothers in for questioning. When Carlie saw Joshua, she fell in love with him the moment she laid eyes on him. Though Joshua was afraid for his life, he couldn't take his eyes off Carlie.

"What are you?" Joshua questioned, Carlie. "I know you are not a vampire like the others, nor are you fully human, but you are the most beautiful creature I've ever laid eyes on." Carlie was immediately smitten.

Carlie explained that her mother was human when she met her father and that she was a hybrid. Also, they were direct descendants of Aro. When asked if he and his brother would also have to become vampires, Carlie was sad to tell him that yes, he would, or he and his brother would be put to death. Joshua begged, saying it was only he his brother and his mother, who was very ill and dying.

"Son, I am very sorry about your mother. The only other option is to offer her immortality as well. It will save her from death, but it will mean giving up everyone you've ever known. We cannot risk exposure to other humans," Aro explained.

"If it means saving my mother's life, and I get to keep her and the Princess, then we'll do it," Josh exclaimed.

"Very well. For the St. Paul Coven, you have been found guilty of exposure to humans. Your sentence is 10-years' service to the guard. Young Joshua and David, you will have one year to tie up your human lives, at which time you shall either be turned or put to death. We will arrange for your mother to be brought here, where she will be turned. Young Mena, you may accompany your mate. Granddaughter, do you wish to escort your mate?" Aro asked turning to Carlie.

"Are you sure grandfather, I mean, I just took the position," Carlie asked. Aro chuckled.

"Oh, my dear child. We've managed for a few millennia now, I think we can spare you for a year," Aro said through more chuckles. Carlie just rolled her eyes as she left the throne and went to her mate. As she linked arms with him, he leaned into her and whispered in her ear, "What is a mate?"

Carlie just giggled. "Come with me while I pack, I will explain everything."

Once the two couples returned to the States, it was determined that the boy's mother Lisa was too ill to be flown to Italy. Carlie called her parents for help. Bella and Carlisle flew out to Minnesota immediately.

"If caught sooner, I may have been able to cure her without the need to change her," Carlisle told the couples.

"I—I—I don't understand," Joshua said looking between Carlisle and his mother. "Are you saying you can't save her?" Joshua asked between trying to hold back his tears.

"Babe, my dad is a brilliant surgeon to humans. He's able to detect and cure a disease that other doctors cannot even detect. What he's saying is if he'd known he may have been able to cure her, but if she agrees he will change her. Right, Daddy?" Carlie said turning to her father giving him a pointed look.

"Yes, of course, baby," Carlisle muttered. Carlisle took Lisa by the hand.

"My dear, are you aware of what is happening to you?" Carlisle asked her with his infamous bedside manner.

"I'm dying, and you are an angel come to take me to glory," the young African American mother of the two boys said. She was a single mother, whose husband became a drug addict and died of an overdose when her boys were really young. She struggled to take care of her children, and now Joshua wanted more than anything to care for her. Joshua took his mother's other hand.

"Mommy, Dr. Cullen is here to cure you, and you will never know pain or sickness again," Joshua told his mother.

"Son, I wouldn't want to sugar coat what is about to happen," Bella started. "I've been bitten twice, once by a sadistic vampire who thought it would be fun to hunt me down before eating me. Again, by the love of my life, so he could keep me forever," she said kissing her husband on the crown of his golden hair, as Carlisle sat on the edge of Lisa's bed. "While I have no doubt, I was meant for this life; it is not all butterflies and hearts. There are struggles, and the initial pain is like someone poured lava into your veins, the flames will lick every inch of your body for three days, death would only be a kindness." Bella looked at her husband and even Mena and realized she was the youngest vampire there. Though Mena was only 18 when she was turned, she was nearly 100 vampire years older than Bella. "I am the newest to this existence so my perspective may be fresher in my mind than the others," Bella added.

"Thank you for being honest with me," Lisa struggled to say to Bella. "I have just one question. Given what you know now if you had it to do over again, would you?" Bella was not expecting that question. She looked at her family, and draped her arms over her husband's shoulders and pulled him, so his back was to her chest

"Abso-fucking-lutely!" Bella said with a smile. Lisa gave her a weak smile back.

"Then let's do it," Lisa said, taking her oldest son's hand and bringing it to her lips. Carlie gave a little jump for joy and kissed her mate on the cheek.

"I have to call Grandfather and give him the latest update," Carlie said pulling her phone from her cloak before leaving the room.

"Right, then let me make some arrangements. I need to transfer your final needs to me as your hospice doctor, along with my wife who is also an excellent doctor. I have a home not far from here in Madison, WI. I can get you there by ambulance in just under four hours. As my wife mentioned, it will take three days, after which, you will wake up as a vampire. You will be very thirsty for blood. Our family considers ourselves vegetarians, meaning we only feed on animals, but that, of course, will be your choice. I will send for my son, who has trained more newborn vampires than I have, to help you. Once you are trained enough and have enough control, you will be given over to my daughter, who sits on the throne of the council that governs our kind, to be escorted to Italy," Carlisle explained.

"Thank you, Dr. Volturi. I don't care what you call yourself, you are my angel," Lisa told Carlisle with the strongest smile she could muster.

"Dr. Volturi, can I ask a question. I understand from your daughter that vampires don't change. Will my mother remain bald for the rest of her life, due to the Chemo?" Josh asked.

"Oh, son, I don't care about that. "I will have my life and my sons for all eternity. I will hopefully get to see my two handsome sons marry these two beautiful girls, and maybe even a few grandbabies," Lisa said. Bella gave Lisa a sad look.

"I'm afraid that may not be possible. My situation was very rare. I was still human when I became pregnant with my daughters. Carlie is only half human. We are not sure she can even become pregnant. And while your other son yes, is still human, vampire women are frozen in time. Mena here would not be able to become pregnant," Bella told her.

"Well, no matter. There are always miracles, and you are giving me the ultimate one," Lisa said.

"As far as your hair," Carlisle added. "I really don't know the outcome of that. While yes, we are frozen as we are during the change, the venom actually repairs any damage done prior. Since your hair loss is not natural but chemically induced, it is possible you may awake with your original head of hair. However, if not, one of my daughters is a fashionista, and I'm sure she can supply you with some fabulous wigs," Bella and Carlisle chuckled at that, causing Josh and Lisa to laugh as well.

"How many children do you two have?" Lisa asked.

"Carlisle and I only have the twins," Bella answered.

"However, I have sired four other vampires and adopted an additional two, my son whom I told you will help with your care once you awake, and his wife, Alice. She is the fashionista I'm referring to. Once I bite you, I will be your sire, and you will be considered one of my children as well. Now you rest up, and I will get this party started," Carlisle told her, before giving Bella a chaste kiss on the lips and leaving the room.

"Wow, he's a hottie, you got yourself a good catch, girl," Lisa told Bella.

"Yeah, he'll do in a pinch," Bella giggled and gave Lisa a wink.

"Now is there anything I can get for you? Are you currently in any pain?" Bella said going into immediate doctor mode. Picking up Lisa's wrist to make a show of checking her pulse as she heard a nurse preparing to enter the room. Bella knew she needed to keep up the human façade.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Cigno-Volturi. The other Dr. Volturi and I will be seeing to the care of this patient from now on. She will not need any other services from the staff here. My husband is currently having her needs transferred, and she will be transported to our facility within the next 24 hours," Bella informed the nurse. The nurse looked frightened, and gave her a curious look, before leaving the room in a hurry.

1000 YEARS LATER.

Things at the Volturi Castle had changed quite a bit. The ruling council now changed every 100 years, to give the Original Kings, Queens and Princess' free reign to take leave of the Castle for a much-needed vacation.

The Council now consisted of Aro, Caius, Carlisle, Bella, Charli and Carli, Joshua and Lisa, Mena and David, and Carli and Joshua's paternal triplets; Joshua III, who was called Trey, Bellisa, and Cassandra, who were known as Liz and Cassie. Marcus was content, only returning to the castle for visits, and, of course, his Royal Wedding to Ingrid.

During their time away from the Castle, either Charli or Bella and Carlisle continued to work at the tribal hospital; Bella and Carlisle were never apart.

Jasper would help out with training any new guards or newborns as needed, while Alice started a new clothing line, 'Cigno-V.' Rosalie and Emmett still had their many weddings and honeymoons.

Aro was more than content, as he was always surrounded by his original bloodline. He was much more mellow than in the previous millennium.

It was as if this was what the Doctor Ordered.
