The years spend in Volturi passed away quite easily, Simon had a pretty relaxed life, it was either him going to kill some vampires who didn't know any better and had started to make armies of newborns or hunting nomadic vampires who had broken laws.
His relationship with Jane was progressing at a rapid pace. They were absolutely inseparable it also helped that they were partners, and Aro was fully supporting them. During the first hunt he had thought that Jane was more of a support who used her ability while her partner killed the enemies, but this thought was crushed when she fought against some newborns who had escaped from Simon and rushed to attack Jane probably thinking of her as an easier target. Jane showed them the strength of a thousand year old vampire. Her movements were smooth and elegant, she tore off their heads with minimal movement in a short time. Simon, who had thought he could not have loved the girl more than he did now was proven wrong and felt himself falling even deeper in her love.
The members of the Volturi had been surprised seeing the ice cold Jane having a mate as she was never one to be associated with emotions. The heads of Volturi were happy with the arrangement because as they had hoped Simon would now be tied to Volturi. The rest of the members also wished them well, since Aro himself had approved of it who were they to object. The only person unhappy with this was Alec, Jane's brother. He always seemed to glare at Simon murderously and wanted to do something but with Jane being together with Simon all the time he had no choice but to relent.
Simon was laying on the bed with back against the headrest, Jane was sitting in his lap with her head on his shoulder her eyes closed as she enjoyed as Simon caressed her back lovingly, sometimes letting out a prrr due to how relaxed and comfortable she felt.
Simon brought his head closer Jane's and took a huge breathe inhaling the sweet smell of her mate. Jane had long gotten used to it, at first she glared at him but after a while she herself started to immerse herself in his scent.
Simon took out a small jar that was half filled with red balls, they were blood candies that Simon had made with his powers, ever since he had given one to Jane she had become addicted to them which was quite understandable as they only thing they could consume was blood and the candies were crystallized blood with the attraction elements in abundance. Simon put one in his mouth, Jane saw this and started to kiss him. They were exchanging the blood candy between each other's mouths. Jane started to get more comfortable and wrapped her her around Simon, her hips grinding upon Simon's hard member. She was cupping his face as they exchanged the candy. Simon's hands were exploring Jane's body feeling her smooth skin.
A knock sounded on the door and a voice came, "Sir Simon, Lady Jane. Lord Aro has called for you."
Simon and Jane parted lips with Jane taking the remaining candy, she got off Simon and waited for Simon to get up. Simon, begrudgingly got up from his bed and went out of his room with Jane next to him.
As soon as they arrived in front of Aro, he smiled, "ah if it isn't my favorite couple. Simon the blood wine you gave me was simply fabolous. I hope I can expect more in the future."
Simon just nodded his head. He had given Aro blood based on the same concept as his blood candies but without crystallizing it.
Both Simon and Jane waited for Aro to continue and speak about why he had called them here, they were eager to go back to their resting.
Aro sighed, "you both are exactly the same always want direct answers not even going to have some small talk."
Simon and Jane stood still not minding the comments Aro had just said. They were happy as they were they didn't care about anyone else's opinion.
"Fine." Aro gave up. "Your task this time is to convince someone to join us."
"Convince? Not ask?"
"Yes, convince they are already a part of a coven."
Simon raised his right eyebrow. Aro had never cared whether someone was in a coven or not he just got what he wanted.
"Her coven head is the Stregone Benefico."
Simon understood he knew about Stregone Benefico, it was what the people in Volturi called him as he had not only refused to drink human blood he even tried to convince the Volturi to start drinking animal blood. He was one of the few vampires whom Aro called friends. His real name was Carlisle Cullen.
"The one you need to convince is Alice Cullen."
