I have a new Beta Team Edward Rules All, She is amazing (: tell me if you guys like her?
And to think that I'd be sitting here again, at La Push. Yeah, that place I left from two years ago after the fight with those Volturi. Yeah, that desolate place.
Not only am I in this bleak place once again but unlike the last time I'm relying on the only people that I would never want to receive free hand-me-outs from.
I've only been awake for two weeks now, but this all started a month ago.
Beginning of flashback~~~
See, I had moved to Florida when I had left La Push. I've got a good life here, with a couple of good friends. I take a run every night around the town to keep me in shape, but unfortunately my nose occasionally starts burning but I think it's because it gets dry when I'm running as it always becomes better when I arrive home.
When I had unconsciously stopped in a deserted place, in the heart of the countryside, I took a sip of my water only to notice that my nose was burning irregularly.
I looked up to see five vampires watching me while smiling in what seemed like a friendly manner, however they were far from friendly. That night I was beat and raped.
I don't remember how the hell I ended up on the border of the wolves and Cullens' treaty line. I do however; remember waking up because of a terrifying chill running down my spine, and the fact that I was hungry.
I opened up my eyes to see Carlisle studying me intently. I was too confused to know whether to scream out of happiness that I woke up to a familiar face, or to scream with a more alarmed reaction.
"Are you feeling okay, Leah?" Edward asked me before I decided what to scream on.
"Ugh, what?" I asked, a little confused. Was I doing okay? I felt fine but I knew that something wasn't right.
"Your mom, brother and the pack are downstairs. We need to talk to you about what happened, as it would clear some stuff up for us. Would it be okay to do that now?" Edward asked me gently. I nodded because I didn't have the strength to speak.
I had forgotten he was a mind reader.
I walked down the stairs and behind Edward. I saw my mom first and began greedily hugging her, trying to take all that I had missed of her for my own selfish reasons. She then pulled me down on the couch next to Seth. I was embraced by their love that I barely -and I mean barely-noticed how Jacob, Embry and Quil were on the brink of tears. All the vamps and wolves in the room were too. The vampires all looked either worried or happy, but the remainder of my pack seemed nervous and pissed.
"What's going on?" I sat up, asking the room. Everyone shifted, looking uncomfortable. I had a feeling that they already knew everything about me being beat up and raped. They probably wanted to know if I knew who the vampire was who committed such a crime.
"No Leah, it's a little bit more complicated than that." Edward told me in a whisper. "Leah you're right, you were raped,"
I stiffened from just listening to someone else saying the word out loud and also because my mom let a sob out and Seth let out a growl while the rest of the pack started shaking.
"Leah, when you were raped there was a purpose. The letter we found in-between your legs stated 'since we're making a new breed of monster,let's just create a whole other fairytale world that I can run.These will be trained though.Don't worry,I'll be back for mine but I need for you to take care of her so that my kid will be okay.'
"We didn't deliver an abortion because… well you never thought that you could get pregnant. Whatever you need now, we will do. We just thought that you should have a choice." Edward said to me, looking at me as if I was about to faint. Trust me, I thought about it but decided that I had been asleep long enough. If you can control fainting that is…
"I... my… I have... I can... I'm pregnant?" I finally got the words out.
"Yes," Carlisle handed me an ultrasound photo.
They must be mistaken or I was out longer than I thought. I was probably four and a half months into pregnancy.
"No, Leah. Remember when Bella was pregnant and her stomach became big, rapidly fast and she was only pregnant for a short while? The father of the baby is a vampire and you are a shifter. The baby is growing very fast." Edward said to me.
I tried to take in all this information calmly but appeared to be failing. I mean that I already knew this. I knew that I was raped, but hello? I haven't had sex for around six months and for it to be thrown in my face in front of everyone I knew was a little overwhelming I guess. The next thing I knew, I was collapsing on the ground, my legs giving out. My lungs felt like they had been stopped because I couldn't get any air in. I could feel these freezing tremors coming from inside my tummy.
If you had looked at me from the front, then you wouldn't have known that I was pregnant. Even from the side, you'd just think it was a little pouch of chocolate. But now it was like everyone could see every movement that I could feel from the baby. From a little bump, you could see my belly bouncing like little frogs were inside of me.
I looked up to see Carlisle and Edward looking over and examining my body for the problem while Jasper began touching my arm, trying to make me feel calm. He did good enough because the next thing I knew was asleep.
I woke up coughing and I rarely cough. There was a breathing mask on my face and wires and needles connected to me.
'What the fuck is going on, Edward.'I yelled mentally at Edward seeing as I couldn't talk.
"I think that Carlisle is better at answering your questions than I am. But I will be the interpreter." Edward told me, turning to Carlisle. "She wants to know what's going on with all these wires connected to her."
"Leah, something bad has happened. The baby's DNA is fighting with each other as the wolf in the baby is trying to shift and the vampire in the baby is trying to produce venom." Carlisle told me softly.
Oh no, not my baby. Not that baby that I never knew that I could have but suddenly wanted.
'How can I save my baby?' I asked, using a whining and crying tone inside my head.
"She asked how to save her baby."
"Leah... I need for you to put another wolf's DNA to dominate both. I haven't told your family yet as not all people will have the same blood type as you and anyone willing to give theirs out will have to be a wolf." Carlisle said to me. I had to sit there for a moment, thinking of how I was going to do this.
"We have both of the wolf packs in the other room. We're testing everybody now to see who has your blood type." Edward said to me. I just sat back, thinking. What if no one that has the wolf gene has the same blood type as me? I mean come on. I am the only girl in the only two packs of wolves. There's always fate stepping in and fucking me over.
I sat there in that room for two days before Carlisle called both packs together to give us the results of who is a candidate. They all had brought their imprints just in case one of them is already imprinted. Sam, Jared, Quil, Embry and Jake are the only ones who have imprinted, so there was not much action going on there.
I sat with my mom and Seth again, wishing that Seth was one of the candidates but when I talked to Carlisle about it, he said that whoever has my blood type and is willing to give would have a bond stronger than an imprint and it would be very disgusting for Seth and I. Emmett offered his blood until Edward had to remind him that he was vampire and that his type was what we were trying to rule out. He was kind of bummed out that he couldn't help though, so he named himself my kid's Godfather so that he can always protect us.
Carlisle walked slowly down the stairs, holding the most important papers of my life at the present. Why he was walking slowly was beyond me as he could use super speed and was taking forever.
"Well Leah, I have gone over the tests thirty times and there's only one person who has the same blood type as you, and no it's not your brother." Carlisle told me, but he had a horrified look on his face as if it was bad news. 'Who has the same blood type as me?' I thought silently.
"Well,tell us so that my grandchild can be okay!"Sue yelled then grabbed my hand and squeezed it. She figured since there was only one person who had matching DNA, that they were just going to be okay with it. But I began to think of what would happen if they didn't want to be a dad, if they didn't want to be connected to me.
"Yeah, I need my beta back! Let's just get her baby a daddy." Jake playfully yelled, winking at me. I just laughed it off. Nessie kindly told me yesterday that if it were Jake, then she would gladly give him to me so that my baby would be okay. I had a new found love for her since then.
"Yeah doc, I guess I do need to know who my baby's daddy will be." I said, joking around. Everyone laughed.
"Paul." Edward said so fast that we all thought that we had heard shit.
"Umm, what?" Paul asked.
I knew now that my baby had no chance. Paul and I hate each other, and now he'd have some connection with me that is stronger than fucking imprinting. He and I can't even share a conversation without one or both of us exploding into wolves.
I guessed that everyone was watching me because I looked up with tears running down my face and every single person in the room looked like we were going to a funeral, like my baby was already gone. That's when Paul spoke up.
"Let's do it." He said, looking straight at me." I know that we don't see eye to eye but you've been gone for two years and I've changed. Plus, I'm the only person. Why would I take that child from you? I'm not a monster. I'll be your knight in shining armour from now on." He said with a smirk on his face.
"Come on Paul, this will create a bond greater than imprinting. Do you really want to be stuck with me forever?" I asked him nervously. I didn't want to ask the question because I was afraid that he would take it back, but that's a big step.
"Well, no to be honest, I don't. But I know that if it's stronger than an imprint then I won't even remember ever hating you. I mean, they don't have a choice and at least I'm choosing to be mind fucked into loving you so much. Just trust me, there's no one else. Plus I'd be a demon to say no. So let's do this baby momma." He said to me before coming over and reaching his hand out for mine to pull me up.
End of flashback~~~
And this is where I am right now. Depending on the Cullen's to keep my baby and I alive. I have Paul sitting here, rubbing my feet while we're at one of the many meetings we have to have about my baby.
Well I guess our baby now.
It's so weird but when Carlisle said that it could possibly make an unbreakable bond, he was right. The morning after the blood transfusion, I woke up just with something bugging me, like something was missing but I just didn't know what.
When I saw Paul at breakfast at the Cullens' it was like all the pieces had come together. The transfusion went great! My baby was on the healthy side now and had calmed down on the growing part. However, I'd still be showing early and delivering early.
But here I am, looking at everything I thought that I'd never come back to with our family sitting around, laughing and kidding around while watching TV and playing video games. Or like Esme and my mom, cooking.
But to think that I never imagined my life to be back in La Push, hell I never thought that I would be with Paul or even more shockingly, being pregnant by him. But now I can't even imagine my life any different than it is now.
It's all good and life is going way better than expected, better than what we all thought. But why is it that when life is going great, something always fucks up the routine...
