Welcome to the new and improved Can't Have You (AKA: A Bond That Cannot Be Broken)! It took a while to rewrite the storyline into what I wanted. To anyone who read (and remember) the original, a lot of changes have been made. To those of you who reviewed the original, thank you for your positive comments. With out further ado, I now present you with chapter one!

A Bond That Cannot Be Broken

Chapter One

Kara Black

My dad had already said his goodbyes and boarded the plane by the time my mother arrived. He was being shipped out to a far away place, leaving me behind to survive my mother. "Kara, sweetie, do you have all of your things? You're staying with your Uncle Billy while I'm in Japan." She announced.

My eyes widened in surprise. Score! I hadn't seen my uncle Billy or my cousins in a long time. Not since the divorce and the move to on base housing. Mother had moved to New York, where the company she ran is based. Since she's going on a business trip, I get to stay in Washington a while longer. "Yes, mother. I have all my things." I replied, smiling.

"My flight leaves in half an hour. Billy is sending Jacob to get you. Behave while you're there. No beating up on little Jakey and Quilly with Em, alright?" She asked, eyeing me carefully.

I rolled my eyes at her use of the names I had called my cousins and their best friend when I was younger. I has always called them that. "Aunt Yoko! Kara!" a voice called.

"Jakey, is that you?" I asked, staring at the tall Quileute man walking towards us.

"Yeah, Karebear, its me." He replied, grinning.

"Well, mom, doesn't look like you have to worry about Embry and I tag teaming widdle Jakeykins, unless Embry's bigger than Jake." I said, smirking.

"Let me guess, you've seen the newest Harry Potter movie and are once again obsessed? And you're in love with the twins again?" Jacob said, sighing, as I nodded happily.

"All seven books with you?"

I nodded.

"Movies one through five with you?"

I nodded.

"Movie marathon tonight and crazy fan girl rants starting as soon as we leave the airport?"

I sucked my tongue out at him for the crazy comment and nodded my head. I was trying not to laugh, while my mother looked on in confusion. "Bring it." Jacob said, determination etched on his face.

I busted out laughing. Jacob joined in. "You know me so well, Jakeykins. I missed you so much!" I said, throwing my arms around his waist…err, chest, maybe?

"I missed you too, my darling little crazy cousin." Jacob said, wrapping his arms around me.

Damn his skin was hot. Must have just gotten out of his car and ran into the terminal. "Flight 213 to Japan is now boarding." a voice announced over the PA system.

"That's my flight. Bye, Kara. Behave." My mother said, hugging me, just before running off.

Jake and I stared at each other, grinning. "So, where are Quil and Embry?" I asked, looking around Jacob.

"In the car. Shall we, darling cousin?" Jacob asked, grabbing my bags.

I nodded, giggling at my weird cousin. I can't believe how old he looks or how his body temperature was. I wonder if Embry and Quil have…? Quil probably has. Embry, on the other hand, definitely not. He isn't Quileute. "Kara, are you okay? Quil, Embry and everyone else can't wait to see you." He said, eyeing me with concern.

"I'm fine. Does that everyone include Paul?" I asked, smirking.

"Yes. Kara, please, for the love of my sanity, do not harass Paul every chance you get." Jake said, knowing what I was plotting.

I pouted and said "But, Jakey, its so much fun."

He eyed me warily. "I know it is, but his temper has gotten a lot worse than it used to be. Promise me you'll be careful?" He said.

"Promise, Jakeykins." I replied, as we reached his car.

Two huge boys glomped me in unison. "Kara, we missed you!" They said.

"Get off Quil, Embry! Can't breathe." I choked out.

They released me. "Sorry." They mumbled.

"It's alright. When did you get so big, Quil? Did those weights I sent you for your birthday work?" I asked, looking him up and down.

"Yeah. Thanks by the way." Quil replied.

"Quil, you're birthday was two weeks ago. There's no way they could've done anything." I said, though I knew what had happened.

"Yes they did." Quil insisted.

"Are we talking about the two pound hot pink weights I sent you two weeks ago? Cause I'm not stupid. I know those little things would not do so much in two weeks. Are you on steroids?" I asked, glaring up at him.

"No, Kara. I'm not using steroids." Quil said, sighing.

"Can we go now? It's a four hour drive." Jacob said, clearly annoyed with me.

Quil jumped in the front seat, while Embry and I got in the back. "By the way guys, I…" I trialed off, not knowing how to phrase it.

I know about the pack. I know about everything, including the mutant spawn my cousin imprinted on. Uncle Billy, Sam and Emily Uley came down a month ago and told me everything. Somehow dad managed to convince them that I needed to know. His excuse was along the lines of "She wouldn't know what to do if she phases in New York. Just think of all the trouble it would cause".

"Kara?" Embry said, bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Um, never mind. I forgot what I was going to say." I said, grinning sheepishly.

Though I could only see the back of their heads, I knew Jake and Quil were rolling their eyes at me. My darling cousins were so predictable. "Jakey, I'm hungry. I forgot to eat breakfast." I said.

Three pairs of dark brown eyes stared at me in shock. "How do you forget to eat?" Embry asked.

"Easy. I get really busy and it slips my mind." I replied, shrugging.

"Meaning you were reading Harry Potter again, right?" Jake said, shaking his head.

"Yup. That reminds me. I need to finish that new vampire book I just got." I said, pulling my book out of my bag.

The boys tensed up. So they do know. Wait, does that mean Embry phased? I didn't know the Makah tribe's legends were on par to ours. "So you like vampires?" Quil asked.

"I like the vampires in this series, but in Underworld, I like the werewolves. Lucian is my imprint. I love him soooo much." I said, watching them relax slightly.

"You remember all the old legends?" Jacob asked.

I nodded, realizing the word imprint wasn't used in the old stories. That was a more recent term. I started to read my book, while the boys talked about something sports related. After an hour or so, Jake stopped at a diner. "Damn, Jake. I was just getting to the crazy hot werewolf sex." I said, glaring at my cousin.

"So did not want to know that, Kara… Please don't let Embry get a hold of that." Jacob said, sliding into a booth.

"Thanks for the idea, Jake." I said, sitting across form him, with Embry beside me.

Jacob glared at me. Quil and Embry laughed, while I continued reading. Embry, of course, read over my shoulder. Usually, it annoyed me to no end when someone did that, but I let it slide this time. I'd do anything to annoy my cousins. We ordered our food. The waiter flirted with me, which seemed to bother the guys. Embry growled at the waiter as he walked away. I eyed him curiously. "Embry, did you just growl?" I asked, though I thought it was sweet how he wanted to protect me.

Jacob sent Embry a warning glare. "That was my stomach, Kara." Embry said, quickly.

I just nodded and went back to my book. The waiter returned with our drinks. My small chocolate shake had been upgraded to a medium. Before I could say anything, the waiter said "Don't worry. It's on the house." winking at me.

I blushed, but it wasn't noticeable to him. However, Embry, Jake and Quil noticed. Embry growled again. Oh my God. Did Embry imprint on me? That would be so awkward. Maybe he didn't imprint on me. Jake and Quil would be angry with him, if he did, even if he is their best friend. The waiter brought out our food. The boys had ordered a lot. Seriously, he had to make four trips to bring it all out. By the time I had eaten a third of my burger and fries, they were on their last plate. I threw them each a look of utter disgust and took a sip of my shake. I feel really bad for who ever had to bus our table. I could just see the bus boys in the back, drawing lots to see who would get our table. Jake better leave a good tip. "Kara, are you done yet? Billy's having a party for you. We really need to get back on the road." Jacob said.

I glared at him. "Jake, not all of us have the ability to swallow their food whole, so forgive me for actually chewing my food, so I don't choke." I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Sorry, Kara." He mumbled.

I finished my burger and shake, while Jake went to pay. Once I finished, I went to the bathroom. On my way back to the car, the waiter handed me a folded up napkin with his number on it. I blushed and slipped it into my pocket. I really didn't want the guys to find out about this.

The ride home flew by. Probably because I fell asleep on top of Embry. He was so warm. His lap was really comfortable too. Embry woke me up as we pulled up in Billy's yard. I jumped out the door before Jake put the car in park. I ran into the house, ignoring Jake's complaints, too excited to see my family and friends. What happened next was unexpected. As I hugged Uncle Billy, I felt a pair of eyes on me. I turned and I was lost in pools of familiar coffee colored eyes. I heard Jake, Quil and Embry curse. I felt someone grabbed my arm. I looked down to find Billy trying to get my attention. "He imprinted on me, didn't he?" I asked, though I already knew.

Seth Clearwater just imprinted on me. Billy nodded, while Sam, Jake, and Quil took Seth outside. He was fighting them. He didn't want to leave me. I didn't want him too. I wanted him to stay with me. I glanced over at Embry, who just stared at the floor. "Who told you?" Paul demanded, his coal black eyes staring me down.

"I did, Paul. She is a direct descendent, therefore she has a greater risk of phasing, especially since Leah phased. Her father asked Sam and I to tell her everything, just in case she phased in New York." Billy said.

"Oh, Paul. I was going to annoy you till you exploded, but I don't really feel like it now." I said, softly.

"Karebear, you do realize you would get hurt if you annoyed me too much? I wouldn't just have Jake, Embry, and Quil on me; I'd have Seth on me too. That's maybe a third of the pack right there, ready to kill me." Paul said, laughing.

"Who ever said you could call me that? Only family can call me that." I demanded.

"Guess what? I am family. I imprinted on Rachel and we're getting married soon." Paul said, smugly.

I stared at him in shock. I turned and ran out the door. "JACOB BLACK! Get over here right now!" I yelled, walking into the forest, ignoring the shouts of warning.

A huge russet wolf appeared in front of me. He shimmered and my cousin stood in his place, in all his disgusting glory. "Kara, go back to the house. It's not safe out here." He said, while I covered my eyes.

"Clothes Jake. Please?" I said, hearing him move around.

"I'm decent." He said and I uncovered my eyes.

I need some bleach! My poor poor eyes. I just saw my cousin naked. So gross. I shuddered and asked "Why didn't anyone tell me about Paul and Rachel? That annoying tool is going to be my cousin in a few months!" I demanded.

"You think I like the idea? We can't help who we imprint on. Rachel's annoyingness cancels out Paul's temper. It works, though I hate it as much as you do." He replied, as a sandy colored wolf approached us.

I looked in to the wolf's eyes and knew it was Seth. "Aw, he's so cute as a wolf!" I said, as he slowly walked towards me.

"Seth, be careful. I'll kill you if you hurt her." Jacob growled.

"Seth, don't worry. I've had a month to get use to the idea of werewolves running around La Push." I said, smiling.

Seth whimpered and laid down, his head on his paws. I giggled and sat down next to him. I ran my fingers through his sandy colored fur. I hugged him and said "You're so warm. You're like my personal space heater. I've always wanted one."

Jacob rolled his eyes and went back to the house. I felt a shimmer in the air and suddenly, Seth wasn't a wolf anymore. He was naked. I looked at his chest and noticed his lovely eight pack. Oh my goodness! How many girls can say they have a guy with a real eight pack?!? Probably just the wolf girls here in La Push.I think I may have started drooling. "Um, Kara? I don't think Jake or Quil will like it if they come back to find me naked and you all over me, though I do like it." He said, grinning.

I reluctantly let him go and turned around for him to slip on the shorts Quil had dropped before he wandered away. "Kara, let's go back to the house. Emily cooked a ton of food and I'm really hungry." Seth said, taking my hand.

I blushed at his forwardness, though I didn't mind it at all. "Let's go annoy Paul!" I said, gleefully.

"No, Kara. He'll hurt you. Even though he imprinted, his temper's still as bad. If Rache was here, then I would let you annoy him." Seth said, while I pouted.

He blushed and said "Don't do that."

I grinned and let go of his hand. He whimpered and took it back. "Seth…" I said, as he wrapped his arms around me.

"I promise I won't hurt you, Kara. You're my whole world. I couldn't live if anything ever happened to you." He said, kissing the top of my head.

"Seth! No PDA!" Jacob yelled, glaring at his pack brother.

I glared at my annoying cousin. I turned around in Seth's arms and threw my arm around his neck, pulling him closer to me. I crushed his lips to mine. He didn't move for a second, but once his brain caught up, he responded. This kiss was the best one I ever had. I know Seth is the only boy I would ever kiss again. Without warning, I was being pulled out of Seth's arms by a clearly pissed off Jacob. I whimpered, reaching for him, but Jake wouldn't let me near him. "Jacob, give her back." Seth demanded.

"No. I know how much you want her, Seth. I've imprinted too, but I really don't want another little Kara running around here in nine months." Jake said, calmly, as Seth slowly approached him.

Seth suddenly got a goofy grin on his face. I knew what he was doing. Either he was imagining the act or our future together. My grin probably matched his, as I was thinking of a little Seth clone running around First Beach. I heard Jake curse under his breath. "Jake, you shouldn't give them ideas! You know how Kara is!" Paul yelled, while laughing his ass off.

"Jake, just give her back to Seth. How would you feel if someone pulled Nessie away from you?" Sam asked, as Jacob let go of me.

I flew back into Seth's arms and he kissed my cheek. "Food's ready." Emily called form the porch.

The pack literally vanished the seconded Emily made her announcement. Seth had waited for me, taking my hand and leading me into my uncle's house. "Girls first. You know the rules." Emily said, handing me a plate.

The piles of food was gone in roughly 5.3 seconds. I just stared at them. "You'll get used to it." Emily said, noticing my look.

The party lasted into the night. Around eleven, I went up to my room, which was the twins' old room. Rachel had moved in with Paul a couple months ago, so she let me have it. I was just glad I didn't have to share a room with Jake. He snores could wake the dead. Plus, if Seth snuck into my room at night, we wouldn't get caught. I fell asleep, wishing I was in his arms.

Sue Clearwater

My son had called me around eleven, saying he needed to talk to me. I hadn't gone to Billy's party, because I was with Charlie. Leah and Seth hadn't completely accepted our relationship, but I knew Harry wouldn't mind. He would want me to be happy. I was sitting on the couch in the living room, waiting for Seth to come home. "Mom, guess what?" He said, grinning widely.

"What happened, Seth?" I asked, though I had a feeling I knew what it was.

"I imprinted!" He said, excitedly.

"Honey, that's great! So, who's the lucky girl?" I asked, smiling.

"Kara Black." He said.

I swore under my breath, but he heard me. Stupid werewolf hearing. "What's wrong? Aren't you happy for me?" Seth asked, looking crestfallen.

"I am, but when Steven hears about this, he's going to kill you, even if you were his favorite neighbor hood kid." I replied, looking worried.

"He's overseas. He won't know till he comes back." Seth said, walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?" I asked, surprised he would just leave.

"Kara's. I'll be back tomorrow." he said, shutting the door behind him.

I stared at the closed door. I sighed, knowing how imprinting worked. It made even the nicest boys ignore their parents. At least it's someone already in on the secret. I thought, as I went upstairs to my room.

Kara Black

I woke up when I felt someone sliding into my bed. I had been dreaming about him. I was half asleep. "Seth?" I asked, sleepily.

. "Yeah, Kara?" He replied, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Jake's going to kill you if he finds you." I said, snuggling closer to him

"Then you'll just have to come to my house." He said, kissing my cheek.

"But I don't have weird powers." I said, closing my eyes.

"So?" He said.

It was really hard to stay awake when you have a really hot werewolf in your bed. Both literally and figuratively.

"It would be hard to sneak in." I replied, sleep clouding my mind.

"I'll figure something out." He said, pressing his lips against my forehead.

"I love you, Seth." I mumbled, as I finally lost the battle against sleep.

10/2 edit:

So I re-read through this online and was like, theres stuff missing. Some lines didn't have the right wording or needed to be more detailed (in my opinion), so I added a line/word here and there. This editing didn't change anything, so you don't have to re-read if you've already read this chapter(if you don't want too). I'm editing the second chapter next.
