In the fourth book there's a vampire index. Can someone tell me who's Afton and Didimia oder something they're Chelsea and Marcus's mates but there is no mencion of them in the Bücher is there??

stephanie sed this...Once upon a time, a fairly young vampire (he had only been a vampire for a decade and a half) named Aro changed his young sister Didyme, who had just reached adulthood, into a vampire in order to add her to his growing coven. Aro always wanted power, and because he himself had a potent mind-reading gift, he hoped his biological sister would also be gifted in a way that would help him rise in the vampire world. It turned out that Didyme did have a gift; she carried with her an aura of happiness that affected everyone who came near her. Though it wasn't exactly what he had hoped for, Aro pondered the best ways he could use this gift. Meanwhile, Aro's most trusted partner, Marcus, fell in Liebe with Didyme. This was not unusual; gegeben the way she made people feel, lots of people fell in Liebe with Didyme. The difference was that this time, Didyme fell in Liebe herself. The two of them were tremendously happy. So happy, in fact that, after a while, they no longer cared that much about Aro's plans for domination. After a few centuries, Didyme and Marcus discussed going their own way. Of course, Aro was well aware of their intentions. He was not happy about it, but he pretended to give his blessing. Then he waited for an opportunity to act, and when he knew he would never be found out, he murdered his sister. After all, Marcus's gift was much Mehr useful to him than hers had been. This is not to say that Aro did not truly Liebe his sister; it's just that a key part of his personality is the ability to destroy even what he loves in order to further his ambitions. Marcus never found out that Aro was responsible for Didyme's death. He became an empty man. Aro used Chelsea's gift to keep Marcus loyal to the Volturi, though not even Chelsea's gift could make Marcus Zeigen any enthusiasm for it.

if that helps....

dieyme, marcus's mate is dead. Oddly Aro killed her, she was his sister he created her knowing she would be special. Then Marcus. they fell in Liebe and were talking about seperating from the voulturi. so Aro killed hos own sister to keep Marcus there Von using Chealsa's powers. And that's also why he looks so down, because his Liebe of his life is dead and doesn't know who did it. Du can even read it on stephine's webpage.

Well in the book it sagte that Didyme died and I guess Afton was not that important.
