Prologue Amber's POV "I never wanted this" I screamed in my thoughts. As I ran towards the leech. Suddenly I was on the ground, someone was on-top of me. I looked up into Seth's pleading eyes and growled at him. I squirmed repeatedly and tried to get him off me, but he wouldn't budge. I howled and howled. I could hear the others tearing the parasite to bits. "Seth get off me." I screamed at him. He wined and finally let me off. But the leech was dead, and my chance was gone. I ran off, twisting through the trees and phased as soon as I was out of sight, back to human form. I didn't want to give Jacob time to scream at me. He would do that enough when I got home. I kept on running, I wanted to get away from the people who wouldn't let me free. Even in my human form I was unnaturally strong and fast. Finally, after about an hour,I caught a trail, but something stopped me from following. Somehow it felt familiar. It couldn't be from the reservation I thought, it would be dead by now if it had passed through our lands and it defiantly wasn't one of the Cullen's. So where had I smelt it before? Suddenly it came back to me. This was the stench that had been lingering around my sister's bedroom the night she disappeared.
