"You know, guys, there are some things I don't understand" I said during the break. Bella insisted on me resting though I didn't want to. Not that I actually didn't need it. I just was so excited about developing my abilities that I didn't pay any attention to my fatigue. Every hour spent on practicing was more and more useful - I could easily push out my mental or physical shield and on the last experiment I succeeded in blocking some of Emmett thoughts from Edward. I shielded random thoughts though all of us were hoping I will be able to learn to protect specific ones.
"What is it, Lilly?" Carlisle asked.
"Just let me check, but you're going to fight Volturi anyway? You're not letting them hurt Jacob and his friends?"
"That's right. We don't want to and we would love to avoid the violence but we won't stand and watch our friends fighting"
"OK, then why you need me to protect your plans from Volturi? Just say no to Aro's mind reading thing. What he'll do? I guess fight is inevitable"
"It's because we don't won't to give them slightest chance of accusing us with anything" Edward explained.
"And letting him read minds will help?"
"I saw it in my vision" Alice just popped out of nowhere "They gonna say it's an expedition, they want to make sure werew.. I mean Jacob and his friends are not dangerous, though they have already decided. All they need now is a pretext. And since the last time Aro read how much they hate our kind he thinks it'll be easy to provoke them first"
"Your kind, Jacob's kind... I'm getting confused more and more" I admitted
"As the matter of fact, we discussed if we should reveal who we are. After all, you already know a lot about us" Carlisle's words shocked me. Am I ready to know the truth? What if it'll be too scary for me? Damn, I shouldn't act like a coward, not right now, just a week before the Volturi expedition.
"So? Do you want to know?" his voice was soothing. I didn't want to show the uncertainty in my voice so I nodded.
"Just don't be afraid, remember, we're not going to hurt you" why he is saying it? "Lilly, we're vampires" Carlisle, Edward and Alice stared at me waiting for my reaction. Vampires? They didn't look like vampires, just maybe except their pale skin.
"And Jacob with his friends are werewolves" Alice added. What the hell is this place? Hollywood movie? I didn't move for a long five minutes.
"Lilly? Are you OK?" Bella's voice woke me up from my thoughts.
"Hmm... Yeah, I guess I'm fine"
"Terrified?" Emmett asked happily.
"No, of course no. The fact that I know how you are called doesn't change anything" I wished they didn't noticed I was lying.
"Really?" Emmett's tone was teasing
"Yes" this time I said it with more confidence. Emmett sometimes could be as much annoying as Jasper. "So Volturi are also vampires?"
"Yes. And very old" Bella came to me and put her hands on my shoulders. "Don't be afraid, everything is going to be all right" and suddenly her words reminded me something.
"Wait, are you drinking blood?" I gasped
"Only from animals" Carlisle said gently.
"So you're like animals' vampire?" it sounded stupid but I had to ask.
"No, we're normal vampires, but we don't want to hurt people. Volturi and the majority of us drink human blood"
"They kill?"
"Yes" his tone was apologetic. I shuddered while imagining how many innocent people dies just for nothing. Just become someone's breakfast. I felt an anger and disgust. Maybe I can't fight bad vampires directly but I have my abilities. I'm going to train even harder and when Volturi will come... I'll make sure they'll be surprised.
"Hey, I forgot to say, Embry is coming" Jacob said coming in with his mouth full of food.
"Wait for a second, how werewolves are gonna fight when there will be no full moon?" I noticed
"We don't need full moon" Jake announced proudly
"You see, they are not the real werewolves. They're shape shifters who turns into wolves." Edward said dryly.
"You said they're not real? Does that mean that the real ones exist?" I was definitely getting too much information.
"Well, yes, but don't worry, they're almost extincted" Edward expression was too concerned for me to relax.
"Almost" I repeated "So I'm involved in vampire-werewolf who actually are shape shifters world?"
"That's right, girl. It's fun, isn't it?" Emmett laughed and I considered throwing him into wall again.
"Why Embry is coming?" Bella suddenly turned to Jacob.
"I thought he should meet her and maybe practice to show some love for his "imprint object"" he air quoted.
"Imprint object?" it sounded weird. But what doesn't these days?
"Yes. It'll be your undercover" Carlisle smiled "We can't reveal our existence to humans, but werewolves can reveal theirs to ones whom they imprint"
"And to imprint means?"
"It's like a very strong love at first sight"
I sighed. At least there are some romantic in these terrible things. "So he'll pretend he has imprinted on me?"
"Yes"
"Just don't act too intensively" Emmett joked and I stretched my physical shield - the big guy swayed and then grinned. He liked to be challenged.
"Maybe we should train some more?" Bella suggested and I followed her.
After a half an hour I was able sometimes to block out specific thoughts. I was keen on trying again but Esme invited me to the living room to meet Embry and Seth.
"Lilly, meet Embry. And here is Seth" Carlisle showed a couple tall and muscular tanned guys. Wow, they are hot. I shook Embry's hand - hot literally. Esme offered some tea and while everyone was discussing plans about Volturi I used all my will not to stare at Embry. I knew it's shallow to be interested in someone just because of appearance but what can I do when he is so gorgeous that I can melt down just right here. For a first time I was glad I was too tired to search for my clothes yesterday and I wore one of beautiful Alice's dresses.
"Remember to look at her with love. Aro read Edward's mind and he knows what kind of effect imprinted girls has on us" Jacob taught Embry who turned to me to give adoring glance. He looked so cute and so beautiful that my heart started pounding. Emmett giggled but I didn't paid attention - I was captivated by his eyes. And then I fainted.
Hope it wasn't boring, please comment

People.com has given us a sneak peek at the Most Beautiful list for this year and everyone’s favorite vampire has made the list. Here is what they had to say about Rob:
ROBERT PATTINSON
His pale, otherworldly complexion may make girls swoon, but the British heartthrob, 23, says looking the part of a lovesick vampire in the Twilight series isn’t quite as thrilling: “Having that makeup put on every single day, as soon as you get it taken off it’s like, ‘Oh, you do look normal. You look healthy now
When I started reading Russet Noon, I couldn’t stop. That’s because I knew that it was the Twilight Universe in which Jacob got the girl.
Not only that, but the chapters and parts of the book that have been released on the website are amazing. They are so cliff-hang-y that they are just bound to lure you in. And you won’t be disappointed.
