Chapter 1
Who I am...
(It is most obvious that I don't own The Twilight Saga nor the characters involved in the books. This is the english version of my greek story Bare grace misery in which Leah Clearwater is the main character. I'd like to inform you that I have read all of the books from Twilight and there are some spoilers in this short story,so read at your own cost.
It was my perfect chance to forget of my destiny...or change it,somehow. I would try my best as far as possible since I would be away from every bitter memory that reminded me the vital reason I was still in pain. And this pain was called Sam...my ex-boyfriend. Wish I had died the same very moment that he imprinted on my first cousin,Emily. But most of all,I hated the fact that we both were werewolves,even though the Volturi's last visit informed us that this was not the exact word to describe our tribe and our ability to transform into wolves. We,the shapeshifters exist for one purpose:to protect our lands from our most dangerous enemies,the cold ones,or else the bloodsuckers. We live in packs just like the real wolves but we also possess two special abilities:the first is that while being in a pack we can all hear each other's thoughts. And the second and most painful ability is...imprintment...Whether you have a relationship or not,once you find the person who's the perfect match for you,you fall instantly in love with him once and for all...and forget your possible previous relationship...
This is what happened to me...i was forgotten,left alone by someone who abandoned me for my first cousin...although I knew he could not control it due to our nature as shapeshifters,and I also knew he felt guilty for leaving me like it could not be helped. I hated being such a monster,and also hated being in his pack,too. He was always there to remind me of the tragedy that occured to me...reading my unpleasant thoughts,hearing my bitter words of agony and hatred. At least,I had got pretty cheerful when Sam had lost control and ruined Emily's face. I had hoped that his love would faint along with her beauty. But it did not. Neither of them stopped loving each other...but also their love grew stronger and deeper roots full of honesty,understanding and sincereness... Imprintment is said to be a sign which indicates our tribe to whom we'll be able to produce strong shapeshifters. So much for reproduction...insticts which take over every living soul within this planet...But I...I can't imprint,neither be imprinted on,because it's a long time since I last had my menstruation...I can't produce not even a single human being,let alone a shapeshifter...
