Nessie POV
I rolled over, and stifled a deep yawn. I'd only been asleep for 3 hours but the vacant, cold space next to me had disturbed my sea of bliss.
I didn't understand, Jacob is supposed to love me, to care for me, right? But recently i didn't know. I tried hard to ignore the emptiness i felt, but it just wasnt working. He had refused to let me sleep without a blanket, saying that
his heat would keep me warm. Seeing him gone just confused me. I imagined him stalling away into the night, not knowing what he was doing just upset me.
I slowly sat up in bed and got reorientated with the room around me. As i slowly adjused to the light around me i could see the silver and purple humes of my wall paper, and the vast opening to my closet. I sighed, without him I wouldn't be able
to sleep again,It was too cold, and I was too hungry. I didn't want to leave my sanctuary, my family would want to know why Jake wasn't here. What was I to tell them? " I don't know dad, he just stalled off into the night, he'll be back in the morning with fresh clothes on, and I'll pretend I never woke up." Somehow, I didn't think my father would buy that, I think Emmet would buy it even less. As for Rose, she would just love the excuse to rip his throat out. I didn't know what he was doing and I was pretty sure I didnt want to know, not after the conversation I heard between Seth and Sam the week before last.
*Flashback*
"Look, Sam we have a duty to protect, we can't let him do this... we just can't!"
"Its our duty to protect humans Seth, not hybrids, its none of our business. Jake can do whatever he wants with his imprint"
"His imprint? listen to you, you've become as perverse as him."
"Shut up, you will let your alpha run his course, that is a direct order Seth, you understand?"
I heard Seth buckle under the weight of the alpha command, whimpering pleas for it to be lifted.
"No Seth, you're lucky Jake hasn't what you're thinking, otherwise you would be in greater pain than you are now, stay away from the mind reader."
*End of flashback*
I sobbed into my pillow. Frightened of what Jake had planned for me, terrified for the potential loss of my one and only soul mate. It was time to talk to my parents about my fears.
