A N ~ I will be changing and updating each chapter even after it has been published until it is exacly how I want it. This is my first story so it will take me a while to get the hang of it. Again I don't own the Twilight characters that will appear in this story at the moment I only own Danielle and my version of a wolf romance

Chapter 1

Danielle was sitting in her living room one night thinking about her life.

"Here I am" she thought "29 years old and just starting my life. The only thing I have accomplished is giving birth to a beautiful little boy. I graduated High School, started college, but never finished. Plus I have a failed marriage. On the bright side now that I am on my own I'm a member of the local Volunteer Fire Dept and in EMT class. Well I'm a probationary member anyway." She had to be there six months before the members could vote her on as a full member. Still it was a start.

Her dream since childhood had been to be a professional dancer but she felt she was to old for that now. She was following her second dream.

Always she had believed in that magical forever kind of love but lately she had been thinking it didn't exist.

Her past relationships certainly hadn't shown it.

" First there was the guy I was dating when I graduated High School who left me for a 16 year old who he then married. Later he got a hold of my cell phone number and started telling me how unhappy he was. All he wanted was an on the side relationship with me. He didn't want to leave his wife because of his daughters. He told me that he needed me and he couldn't forget me. Yeah like that's going to happen. Dream on. Needless to say I changed my number and never talked to him again."

"Then there was the guy I married. Boy was that a mistake. He is the father of my little boy but was never around. Instead of coming home after work he would go to friends houses. When he was home he stayed in our bedroom and wouldn't come out. I felt like I lived in a fish bowl. Anytime a car pulled in our driveway one of his friends was calling to tell him. If I left the house it never failed that I would pass one of his friends somewhere along the way. At one point he was making sure there was enough only gas to get to town in my car but not enough to get back and as he made sure I never had any money I only put gas in while doing the weekly grocery shopping. Any friends I made he would befriend and then turn them against me. I was getting lonelier and lonelier by the day. I wasn't doing anything wrong but the lack of trust and basically no privacy were getting on my nerves to the point I couldn't deal with it anymore. Finally I'd had enough of the loneliness and left with my little boy. After I left he had the nerve to ask if we could be friends with benefits and had the audacity to get mad when I said no."

"After that there was the friend of my brothers. He was a nice guy just not my type. He was just to polite. And had several little quarks to his personality that just grated on my nerves. Nothing that was horrible but little annoyances that I just couldn't take.

"Then there was the cop. The one I liked the best. We got along really well and things went well in the beginning. He took me shooting and I found I could enjoy it again. It was something I had done since I was a kid but my ex husband had taken the fun out of for me. He took me driving teaching me the ways around the more obscure back roads in my township and helping to be able to go straight to scene (as soon as I get off probation that is) and know how to get where I need to be. I thought maybe we can have something special, until his break in his work schedule, after that I never saw him again. His schedule and mine just didn't line up anymore."

Danielle had always been intrigued by vampires and werewolves. She had always leaned more toward the wolves than the vampires

" because the wolves are warm and (thought harder than normal humans) still made of flesh and blood and bone so they are soft. Not to mention the thought having a horse sized wolf around would be totally awesome. I mean come on think of the possibilities. Who wants to be with someone who is a rock. Who is as cold as ice and couldn't enjoy a sunny day and let's not forget about the venom covered teeth and the thirst for blood. EWW just eww "she thought.

She would take warm, soft( comparatively speaking), fun and sun over cold, unyielding, dark and deadly any day."

She loved life and its unpredictability. It was a total mystery to her as to why someone would actually want to become a vampire.

" To want to die and come back as an undead creature for eternity no thanks. I know as long as the wolves phased they don't age but that is a little different. The wolves are still alive after all."

She knew that none of them actually existed but it was fun to think about.

She thought" even if they did I wouldn't be lucky enough to meet one let alone fall in love with one."

" More to the point I would never be an imprint I'm just not that cool. I am way to ordinary for that. My luck I would fall in love with one only to have him imprint on some random girl and leave me.'

She was 5'2" tall about 110 pounds had sapphire blue eyes and just below her shoulders length blonde hair. She had a small nose and pink lips that were not thin but not full either. She was light complected to the point she would burn and not tan. She dressed mostly in jeans but she made sure what ever top she had on was in style. She loved boots to of any shape or form. She was nothing special though, just another single mother. She did ok with human men though hadn't found one yet that could handle her busy life.

"Compared to 6" or taller wolves/guys and the golden skinned, raven haired women around the reservation I wouldn't stand a chance. Add to that the small fact I couldn't have kids anymore and I know an imprint is impossible."

The thought of not being able to have anymore kids made her sad. She thought back on the tubular pregnancy that had ended that phase of her life and shuddered. She never wanted to go through that pain again. She had been pregnant and didn't know it. One night her stomach started to feel like something was trying rip its way out of her from the inside out and she started passing out. She was taken to hospital twice that night and they missed it both times. When she got up the next morning she couldn't hardly breath because the pain was so bad. A friend of hers took her to a different hospital and they found the tubular pregnancy but not before it had ruptured her tube and caused internal hemorrhaging. By the time it was found she was half an hour from death and was rushed to emergency surgery. They had to remove her right tube and ovary completely and didn't know if the left one still worked or not. They said getting pregnant again could kill her and she couldn't take the chance of that happening because of her little boy.

She did want to go to La Push on vacation though. She had been planning the trip for months. She knew the price of cabin rentals, plane tickets, and rental cars. Her ex- mother in law was going to have her son for a month in the summer so she decided that was the time to go and she was going to stay the whole month.
