A/N: Not mine. The plot and a few characters are. That's it.
Emily is not in my story. Sam hasn't imprinted with ANYONE!
Prologue
I am Gabriella Ateara, Quil Ateara's little sister. And I hate my older brother. Him and his little "gang" led by Sam Uley, I hate that guy. So high and mighty, thinking that he's better than us. He makes me sick. Well, I feel better now that I got that temper tantrum off my chest. Let's move up to where my story starts. The day my heart broke. Again.
Chapter 1
"Mom, I'm going to check on Jake!" I yelled as I walked out the door.
I heard a faint "okay" before the door closed. It was Saturday and I was worried about Jake. He'd suddenly come down with a major fever and Billy was acting strange. I mean, Jake's been my best friend since we were born. We're closer than him and Quil. And he hasn't been sucked into "The Sam Gang". I jumped on my hand-me-down, junkyard four-wheeler and rode over to Jake's house. As soon as I cut the engine off, the door opened and Billy came out.
"Gabriella, you need to go home." He said.
"I just want to check on Jake. I'm worried. Can't I talk to him?" I asked, starting to get a little ticked off.
"Fine then. Talk." Jake said, coming out of the woods.
"Jake!" I said, smiling. I took a step towards him but stopped when I saw Sam and the rest of his "gang" following him, including Quil.
"Can we talk somewhere else?" I asked.
"No. We talk here." He said coldly.
"Fine. What's going on?" I asked, getting irritated.
"I can't tell you." he said through clenched teeth.
"I thought we were friends! We've been friends since we were BORN!" I screamed.
"We were." He put emphasis on the past tense.
"You're my friend! You always have been!" I screamed my lungs hurting from the sudden lack of oxygen.
"Not anymore." He said and then he went into the house, the "gang" following behind.
I stood there, numb from shock. I had lost my brother and now my best friend to Sam Uley. He was going to pay.
