It had been almost a year since Willow died for the last time. Emily and Sam had gotten married, as had Seth and Haven. Both imprints were now listed as pregnant and dangerous. Sam and Emily were having a boy, but Haven and Seth wouldn't tell us what they were having, therefore there were many bets about what they were having. I myself had a bet going with Collin and Brady, I say it will be a boy but they say it will be a girl. I think I'm going to win. Leah had graduated from college and was back on the res. She was working as a teacher, who knew she loved kids? She had also imprinted, his name was Markus, he was from Seattle, but he moved to the res when Leah told him. Rachel was pregnant and had moved back in with Billy until Paul finished the house he was building for the three of them. Jared and Kim had a baby girl who was four months old, we figured that was the reason she was so moody before the Cullens left. Her name was Amanda, but nearly the entire pack called her Mandy, much to Kim's displeasure.

The Cullens left less than a month after Willow was killed and still hadn't returned. Alice said they would be back soon, but what was soon to someone who had an eternity to live? I blew off the feeling that settled over me as I thought about them. I missed them a lot, but I was still slightly mad that they left again, even though the threat was gone. Although I had heard from Charlie that Jake had given Nessie a promise ring for her thirteenth birthday and was nearly killed by Edward and Bella. I had to laugh when I found out, that boy would never learn.

Embry and I were a totally different matter, however. We were still together, and even though he had agreed to move in with me, he had yet to do so. He was still living with his mother, much to the displeasure of the both of us. To make matters worse he took Jake's place as Beta when Jared took Sam's as Alpha. It was straining to say the least. The last time I had visited I let slip to Ms. Call that I had asked him to move in with me and she through a fit. Not because I had asked, but because he hadn't done so yet. She even screamed that he was weird for being twenty-nine and living at home. I had to agree with her there and when I said so, Embry got mad at me. We were still fighting a week later.
