Chapter 1

Embry's POV

I woke up this morning expecting today to be just like any other day over the past six years. Wake up, run my patrol and go to work. It's been about twelve years since anything exciting happened and that was the year my friend Jake's imprint was born and the pack split. Jake and the Cullens moved away five years after that day. To most people it would have seemed logical for me to go with them seeing as I am in Jake's pack. However, my mother had become ill and I needed to stay and care for her. I'm not the only one that stayed behind from our pack. Quil also stayed in La Push because of his imprint. Jake was fine with us staying because he knew that we had good reasons.

I was a little worried at first that it would be quite without the others. Sam had gotten over being angry and let us rejoin his pack. The pack has changed some throughout the years, two years after Jake left Sam, Jered, and Paul stopped phasing. That kind of left Quil and I in charge of the pack. I don't necessarily feel like an alpha though. It's almost like just I'm filling in until Jake comes back if that ever happens. I was his second alpha so it's not like I'm unused to somewhat being the lead. After all that was almost five years ago. We all still get along though the three of them have become new elders for the pack so they are still involved in a lot of things.

In fact Paul is the reason why today is different from every other day. He called me early this morning before patrol and insisted that the whole pack meet at his house right after my patrol. Usually meetings that involve the elders are at night and are held at Sam's house. He said it was really important so I am heading over there now.

I was the last to arrive, everyone is gathered around the back porch. Even Sam was there and Jared came out of the house as I joined the group.

"So, Paul what's up?"

Interesting I assumed that Jared and Sam know what is going on considering they are here but it was Sam that asked the question.

"Well, here's the thing, there are somethings that I can and can't tell you at the moment. I was sent a very precious package over night that we need to guard and protect."

"Wait I'm missing work because of your mail? I think you have officially lost your mind."

"Chill, out Embry. It's not exactly a package, she is a person. A member of the Quileute tribe that has grown up outside of the reservation. All of us were specifically chosen for this job."

"Are you saying that she is in danger because of vampires?"

"That is exactly what I was informed of Collin."

"Who sent her here?"

"That is one of the things that I can tell you at this point. It's one of the things that has to stay hidden at this point to keep her safe."

"We guard all of La Push so her just being here make her safe. I'm still not understanding what the big deal is?"

"I was asked that you have a pack member with her 24/7. It is kind of a high alert situation."

"I think this whole thing is still absurd."

Before Paul could say anything else after my sharp comment Jared jumped into the middle of the conversation.

"Why don't we just take them all inside to meet her and then maybe they will change their minds and not be so grumpy?"

Paul sighed and headed for the door. I heard Brady telling Collin that he thinks it will be fun to have something more interesting to do for a while. The two of them seem to miss leech hunting a little too much.

When I entered the house I could smell a slight bleachy smell but I figured it was probably just something that Rachel was using to clean with.

Riley's POV

Today was going to be the start of another difficult chapter in my life. Nothing ever can be simple in my life. Today is the first day in my new home. My uncle had set the navigational system in my car with a single destination yesterday before I left. He had fallowed me 3/4th of the way on my trip but I knew that was for my own safety. It made me feel a little better because I was traveling to a place I have never been before. I met the people I am now living with once when I was little. They had traveled to see us at that point and time. My uncle promises that I will be safe with them. I don't really have any doubts about them, its more being without my uncle that is going to bother me. I mean after all they are my family too.

Paul is outside with his friends, he says that why are going to help protect me. I am trying hard not to listen in on what they are saying and talking about. Even though I'm sure it is me that they are talking about. Rachel and her friend Kim are making breakfast for everyone. I think I will get along with them well, but am a little unsure at the moment. Rachel seems to be a bit worried about me from the way that see keeps glancing over at me. Kim has a million questions running through her mind for me that she is desperately trying not to blurt out.

A few moments later the door opened and all of the guys came into the house. I tried to make it look like I wasn't paying too close attention to them, but I watched each one of them. I wanted to know everything about them that I could. Paul introduced each one of them to me. When Paul introduced me to the last one his eyes locked with mine. It felt strangely comfortable but weird at the same time. I looked way but when I glanced back up he was still looking at me.

Paul, why is he staring at me like that?

Paul looked up at his friend named Embry.

I'm not sure if at the moment your father is going to kill me or him.

What do you mean what is going on?

Remember, how when Rachel and I came to visit, and your dad and I told you about the tribe legends?

He didn't wait for me to answer.

You are like Rachel now. Riley you just became an imprint.

"Embry, quit staring at the girl you are going to scare her."

The two of us both looked up a Jared. After what Paul was thinking in his head I'm surprised he didn't say anything to Embry. That is something that makes Paul and my uncle very different. My uncle is very out spoken much like the rest of my family.

It was then that I noticed that I feel alone and empty without my Uncle. I have been so used to him being around that I didn't think that I would miss him so fast. Plus I never expected that he would have to send me away. He has been the only family member that I have been around for the last two and a half years. I quietly slipped away from the group into the living room. I was kind of trying to hide from everyone. It's been a while since I was around a large amount of people that were close to each other.

"Rilynn what are you doing in here all alone?"

"Sorry, Rachel I just needed to be away from all of the people."

"Are they bothering you?"

"No, I'm not used to being around that many people, that are focused on me."

"You will get used to all of them. It took me a while at first too. You don't have to worry about them all always being around at the same time. It will be more like one or two of them at a time."

"I just really miss my Uncle right now."

"I can imagine that all of this is hard for you."

She held out her arms to me offering me a hug. I hesitated for a moment but I figured it was something else that I would have to get used to as well. I gave her a tight hug careful not to hug her too tight. As I looked over her shoulder I noticed Embry watching us from the doorway.
