Prologue
Jacob POV
Bella's friend just ran out of the movie. He's such a wimp. Bella wants to go check on him and have me stay. He left because he was sick, she won't be able to do anything for him. I insisted on coming and she relented. When she got out of the theater, her eyes travelled frantically around trying to find him.
"I'll be right back." I promised her. She just nodded her head. I went straight into the bathroom and found him exactly where I thought he would be. I lightly tapped on the stall.
"Uh, Mike?"
"What do you want?" he moaned.
"Bella and I are going to wait outside the bathroom for you."
"Okay" When I left the bathroom I found Bella nervously pacing back and forth. I sat down on a bench and motioned for her to come join me.
"Relax, Bella," I said as I draped my arm across her shoulders. She leaned forward a little, so I took back my arm. "Bells?"
"Jake, I'm not ready for this. I'm sorry." Her eyes begged me to understand.
"That's fine, Bells. But always remember that I'm here. I promise to never hurt you, or leave you, or anything like that." She gave me a hesitant smile.
"I know, Jake. Don't worry." Mike came out of the bathroom looking slightly green. Bella jumped up and fluttered her hands uselessly. I was suddenly really angry at him for making Bella worry so much. Calm down Jacob. My angry quickly disappeared as the shock took its place. I knew that voice. It's a voice I have always hated. Sam. What the heck was he doing in my head? I saw Bella look over at me slightly confused. I realized she probably wanted me to help her get Mike to my car.
"Start walking over, I'll catch up." I said swiftly. I jogged over to get an empty popcorn bucket, then caught up with them and handed it to Mike. "Nothing on the car" I said my eyes narrowing. Bella looked at me concerned, so I just smiled reassuringly at her. I could tell she didn't buy it, but she let it go.
When we got back to her house, she hugged me good-bye. I felt her stiffen as soon as she touched me. "Jake, how do you feel?" she asked guardedly.
"Fit as a fiddle, why?"
"You're burning up. Do you want me to drive you home?"
"No, Bells, I'll be fine." She got out of the car, and I drove home. I felt fine, except it was bugging me that I heard Sam's voice. When I walked through the door of my house, my dad looked up. He could probably hear me grumbling about Sam.
"You don't look so good, Jacob" he said. I don't know why, but that got me really mad. I started shaking. I could see the terrified look he gave me. Jacob, calm down. Instead of his voice shocking me, it just fueled the fire. I felt like I had just exploded. Billy was on the phone, and I head the say the name Sam. I have had enough with Sam; he's not all that great. I tried to yell at him to hang up the phone, but all I heard were snarls, growling, and howls. I reached my hand up to take the phone away from Billy, and saw a paw. What the heck was happening to me? Just then, I heard other voice in my head telling me to back out of the house. I started snarling even more. I wasn't going to listen to anyone. Jacob, look at your dad. You need to leave the house before you hurt him. I wasn't going to hurt my dad. I was fine without their help. Suddenly, I felt someone bite my tail and start to pull. I instantly reacted to the threat, and turned around and bared my teeth. The wolf got in a submissive pose with its tail tucked and ears and head lowered.
Jake, it's just me, Embry. I hesitantly followed him out of the house. For the next three days I was taught all about being a wolf and why. On the fourth day I was sitting in my room, as a human. A million thoughts ran through my head. The one that stuck out the most was Bella. I couldn't believe I turn into a wolf. What is Bella going to think of me now? The conversation I had with Sam rang in my head.
You can't tell anyone
But…Bells
No one. Sam replied in his alpha voice.
What could I do? How could I possibly hide this kind of thing from Bella?
