Raven pov 5 years later
Standing at the window facing the backyard I smile watching Evangeline catch our four year old son as he runs from the woods holding a doll with Sirena after him.
Two years after we handled the Cullens and Bella, the Kings bought the land they had their house on and donated it to the reservation.
It was decided this house would be our pack house, we expanded the house and added more space to accommodate our pack and new pack members when they come.
Looking to Leah I follow her sight seeing Rose holding their daughter on the porch.
It took a while and a lot of thought but Leah and Rose decided to adopt their daughter from the supernatural orphanage, Violet's a beautiful girl with a shifter mother and hybrid father that was part vampire.
We went with them and found Kyle, a vampire hybrid that followed us around the home talking about anything he could think of.
Hearing Sirena shout I look back seeing her chasing Evangeline with Kyle while Jane follows calmly, her eyes tracking them before she takes off and appears on the porch holding the doll smugly.
Chuckling I shake my head going to the couch to sit down while hearing the door "Raven, did Sirena and Rose ever finish that project for us?"
Glancing at Aro I nod pointing to a box on the table "they did and they found a way to make needles from wolf fangs, so they will go in without having to remove limbs to force them in frozen veins" I answer.
He nods picking it up smiling "it's wonderful Alice and Edward finally joined they've been such help".
Snorting slightly I glance at him "I'm sure they will appreciate the compliment" I mutter.
Aro managed to get around Sirena keeping Edward and Alice, he gets work from them by letting Sirena use them as test subjects for new inventions.
Jessica even uses them to test new things or changes to charms for vampires, I was sure eventually they would be killed for their crimes, but apparently when they were supposed to face sentencing they said something that set Caius off.
He ordered them to serve 400 years in prison before they will be able to meet the true death.
Part of it means they have to be lab rats, it's became known that now if the royal family sends you to prison depending on the crime you could have to face this punishment.
So far we only have them but others could join, they get a small amount of blood at certain times to keep them sane, it's never enough to give them strength it's also never animal blood.
"Alec finally found his mate"
Looking at Aro I raise my brow since I tend to ignore him, he has some kind of fetish for hearing himself speak I think since he could talk for hours without anyone else joining in.
"How'd that go and where?" I ask.
"Wonderful, Shelby's a new member, they met when he planned to mess with Felix and Dimitri, he met her while they were leaving the training room although his prank backfired on him"
Humming I nod "serves him right, he always messes with the mated pairs".
"Oh, please inform Charlie I need him for a job" Aro adds.
Nodding I wave as he leaves, while grabbing my phone to call Dad, since his change and new job he travels around investigating things for the Kings.
But since we got the kids he visits more often, I asked if he was hoping to find his mate but he just smiled shaking his head then told me he's in no rush to find them since he has an eternity.
As for Bella, she's still in the hospital I learned from Jessica that Bella is just blocked from being able to do anything stupid to try seeing Edward she's also capable of speaking, in fact she actually attempted to tell about us but of course no one believed her.
She just made herself seem insane I've continued to keep track of her for the first two years I called often, eventually her doctor told me he doesn't believe she can be helped and I should start focusing on my life instead of devoting everything to her.
I slowly eased off visits and calls since I can't exactly tell them why I was watching her so much, Jake finally moved on and imprinted on a shifter that came looking for Evangeline.
I even went to therapy, I've working through a lot of anger for Bella, I know I still love her but not who she became I still love the girl she was before Renee messed her up.
Life has been great since then.
