A story of love and duty, family and deception. A mercenary? A girl? A murder? A romance? A member of the Volturi guard is sent to Forks on a reconnaissance mission. When an unexpected rescue operation detracts him from his goal it sets in motion a chain of events that will change him in ways he never expected.

"I was tired of chasing her, I had been chasing her for far too long. Mere moments, a lifetime? I only knew that with her at my side, I was sure of who I was, that years upon years of emptiness were not quite in vain, that with her the anguish that grated at my soul came to halt. I could rebuild myself with her. And no, not piece by piece, but entirely. All at once. To have her would be to have every part of humanity that this life had to offer. To have her would be to have everything."

Thank you to the lovely NotoriousR for not only making my banner, but schooling me in the finer points of Photobucket.
