They hear that the vampire police, the Volturi, might be out from Italy soon to enforce some “Hey, don’t make so many vampires at once, that’s like, not excellent subterfuge on your part” kinda rules. Edward’s basically like, “Gotta marry ya before I kill ya, Bella.”īella and Edward are made aware that there’s an evil vampire uprising in Seattle (they’re out on the OIympic Peninsula, not suuuper close, but like, close enough). She laughs softly, basically declining and says, “Change me.” He says he wants her to marry him before he “changes her” (into a vampire) and she doesn’t like the idea.
