LONE WOLF
IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE:
A/N: Before you ask about the updates on my other fics, I will let you know that they will be up hopefully by tomorrow. I'm still working hard on finishing the chapters, but I had to post this…
Anyways… up to the story. This is something that has been dwindling in my thoughts… lol, and I thought, why not? I'll try it. This is will be the first of probably out of three chapters… three long chapters. This story is entirely through my OMC Wyatt Uley, Sam's younger cousin POV. I'm still fixating the story to explain his background, but I will give you a brief summary. He was always placed in the background. His mother wanted nothing to do with him; she felt she was too young to be a mother, so his father moved him back to La Push to start anew. He was always known as an outcast, and even his older cousin never gave him the satisfaction. His father dies when he was eight, his aunt kicks him out at 14, and the Clearwaters were so kind to take him in. Rated-T for now. M/M. OMC's
Enjoy.
P.S. The story takes place eight years after Breaking Dawn. There is also talk of M-preg, or suggestions of it, but I wont do it in this story.
D: I only own the plot, Stephenie Meyer owns the characters, accept for my OMC's.
I reluctantly stared out at the horizon; nothing seemed as peaceful as the sun descending behind the peaks of the mountains. I haven't felt this grounded in my life, and I had to flee my people to claim this victory. I actually shouldn't say flee per say, it was more of banished. Because of who I was, and who sparked my interests, I was forced to leave and demolish the feelings I had for two fellow-pack members. The scents of rotting leaves, pine, sagebrush, and the hint of cold brisk water invaded my nostrils. I perched myself on the boulder to gaze upon the landscape below me, of what looked like another reservation. The small community was surrounded by mountains, and it seemed to be more secluded with one exit or entrance to the beautiful place for anyone to visit or leave. The climate here was even different than what I was used to, somewhat dry and crisp air, with the sun invading the valley. I came from a place that was more damp and moist, and visits from the sun's rays were very rare, thus making it very substantial to any of my natural born enemies to live there. This place. This place would be inadequate to any of the cold ones to survive here without being noticed, they would have to be very swift passing through here.
Freedom has something I was never familiar with, ever since my dad died, I haven't had the chance to live a carefree life, and I was always in defense mode, searching and scrounging for food and lurking for survival. Even though my life changed after moving in with the Clearwater's, I still had the indistinct feeling of belonging. Now that I wasn't allowed back in La Push, I felt like I was floating on air. It was as if a thousand pound weight was lifted from my shoulders, and the many chains of life that were holding me down were shattered and rusted.
My decision to look for my mom seems impossible; I have no clue how she looks, nor if she still carried the feelings of not wanting me. Either way, I still had to find out if there was ever a chance that she loved me in any sort of way, and if she didn't, at least I would know so I could move on with my life. Something I've been longing for since I was eight.
"Are you okay?" A mysterious deep voice startled me, causing me to jump vigorously. "Are you lost?"
"Umm… No. I was just passing through." I muttered in defense.
"Well it's very dangerous to be wandering these forests without the protection of a gun…" The tall native man spoke, only to be interrupted by his comrade whispering in his ear, "never mind, it seems you have it covered."
"What is that supposed to mean?" I stared at the native, standing between two men that didn't look that much different from him, in fact, they didn't look that much different from the guys back home. Until their scents hit me. Werewolves. "'scuse me, I have to leave."
"Why? We're in need for introductions," one of the men stood in my path, smirking and gripping my arm.
"Brandon? Don't frighten the guy." The first guy defended me. "Like he said, he's just passing through."
"Where is your pack?" The third man spoke. "Why are you here?"
"Cory. That doesn't concern us." The man spoke again. "I apologize for their inconsideration's."
"It's fine." I muttered. "My pack banished me from the tribe, so I am heading north to find my mom and her family."
"You must be a danger if you were banned from your pack?" Brandon, from what they called him asked me, still gripping my arm, now even tighter.
"Brandon let him go." The first man demanded.
"I'm taking it that you're the alpha?" I questioned him as Brandon let my arm free, "and no, I don't see myself as a danger. I was banned for unnecessary reasons."
"Yes, I am alpha, and my name is Alex. Alex Hall." He extended his hand to greet me. "Why were you banished? Sorry, but I must ask for the tribes safety, in case the unnecessary reasons are more than we expect."
"It's fine." I sighed and continued. "The pack banned me because of my sexuality… because they discovered I'm gay, they insisted it was inhuman and that I shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the tribe and as they say 'Spread my disease' they didn't want me anywhere near the pack."
Alex pulled the other two aside to speak privately. I could have used my enhanced wolf hearing to eavesdrop, but it would be rude. It did make me feel uncomfortable though. I ignored the conversation and continued to stare out into the scenery before the alpha spoke again.
"We don't see you as a danger, and if your pack has banned you for who you choose to love, then they are blind not to see your abilities." Alex kneeled next to me, "we actually have a couple pack members that are attracted to the same sex, in fact two of them imprinted on each other, but that gives them no reason to shun out a pack member for what they can't control."
"Well preach to them." I chuckled, "seriously I haven't felt more free from them as I ever been, it feels good."
"Be as it may, no one should face what we face alone, it's not right." Cory added, "Your life could be more at risk."
"I'm sorry how I reacted towards you…" Brandon said.
"Wyatt. Wyatt Uley."
"Wyatt. But as Alex said, we are here to protect our tribe and our pack, so I hope I haven't offended you?"
"You didn't. I understand fully." I assured the man, "but I should be going now."
"Are you sure? We can put you up for a night?" Alex asked me, "We don't mind."
"No. I'll be fine, thank- you." I insisted, hoping to make a getaway.
"You look hungry…" Cory added, "I'm sure you would like something to eat and a bed to sleep in for the night."
"I actually am," my stomach grumbled. I have literally been eating raw meats to survive, hunting deer and caribou. "That would be great."
"Cool, we'll explain to the council your arrival," Alex ushered me to follow them on the faded trail, "I'm sure they will understand."
Everyone here seems so polite and heartwarming, every person we passed waved at the guys, and even giving me a smile and a wave. I felt like I was stuck in some folklore fairytale village where the people would start breaking out into song, harmonizing on how great the day was. Cory and Brandon said their goodbyes and informed Alex that they would meet him later at the longhouse for the council meeting to notify the council that I wasn't a threat. Alex offered me a spot in his spare bedroom at his place, seeing how he was a bachelor and the others lived with their mates. So it only seemed right that I stay there.
I followed Alex until we reached a small cottage, similar to how Sam's was back in La Push. But Alex's was slightly smaller with a huge black GMC truck parked in front. Tall pine trees surrounded the yard with an old tire swing hanging in the front off of the only maple tree on the front lawn. Alex gave me a smile and led me up the front porch.
"I hope you like the place?" He chuckled.
"Why wouldn't I?" I smiled back, "it's beautiful Alex."
"That's great to hear." He said still smiling and opening the door to reveal the inside.
We entered the small house, it scarcely reminded me of Sam's place too. The living area was to the right as soon as we walked into the foyer. The kitchen to the left with an exit to the side, a small hallway led to the bathroom with the spare bedroom after that to the left. To the right was the master bedroom, and following that was the laundry room. The fireplace was on the far right in the living room, with his flat screen TV on the south sidewall, and his couch sat in front of the window that viewed the front where the truck was parked, and in the corner sat a lazy boy. The kitchen was even exquisite; it had a small bar with two stools, an island with pots and pans hanging from the steel rack that hung from the ceiling. The dining table was placed in front of the exit, in view of the other window facing the front lawn.
"I hope I'm not being a bother by staying here." I said hesitantly.
"It's fine, I'm actually glad to have a house guest." Alex said, walking to the kitchen and digging through the fridge's freezer, "I hardly have anyone to be host to."
"Well I really do appreciate it." I sat on the stool.
"You don't get much people catering to you, do you?" He smirked; placing a few pork chops in the microwave to thaw. I shook my head in agreement. "Well you have no worries here, people around here are not the typical assholes that invade today's society. We're all practically raised on karma, what goes around comes around."
"Yeah, sounds like what my dad would tell me." I forced a smile. "I have a question though."
"Shoot."
"Please don't be offended? But… not that I'm not grateful for the hospitality, but how come you guys never killed me for trespassing? I mean Sam… my used to be alpha explained that other packs do not take kindly to trespassers, and we had to live under the same conditions."
"We're not like other packs." He smiled placing a pot of rice on the stove. "We believe that everyone deserves a chance, and you were no exception."
"I know the pack back home wouldn't have given a stray a chance, we would've been ordered to get rid of them." I said.
"But doesn't it bother you guys to kill an innocent?" He sighed, his smile now faded.
"It does." I rubbed my head, "but it never came to that."
"Let's change the subject." He smiled again, "I hope pork chops, and rice and veggies are fine for tonight?"
"Anything is fine." I stood up, "do you need any help with anything."
"Nonsense, I can do it," He placed the pork in the preheated oven, "but I should show you where you will be sleeping and get you an extra pair of clothes so you can give those a wash."
I followed him to the spare room. It had a twin bed with a small nightstand to the side and a window to see the side of the house. It was small and cozy. "Thank-you."
"Your full of those aren't you?" He chuckled, "I'll get you and extra pair of clothes and a towel, I imagine you're probably feeling groggy and haven't had a warm shower since you left your rez."
"Is that a polite way to say I stink?" He stopped to give me an apologetic look, "I'm kidding."
"And a sense of humor? I hit the jackpot." He laughed walking to his room. He hit the jackpot? What does he mean by that? "Here you go. If you need anything, feel free to ask, dinner should be ready by the time you get out."
"Thanks again."
"No problem." He gave one last smile before heading back to the kitchen.
I admit, it does feel good to finally be having a shower. I slipped off my old dingy clothes and turned on the cool water. Seeing how hot water wasn't really a necessity for me for the past ten years, I usually took cold showers. I leaned against the shower stall wall, thinking of what I was going to do next in my unplanned journey, where I was going, I didn't even know where my mom lived, so I was basically flying blind. I'm sure the council would want me to leave tomorrow, I just needed to figure out which way I wanted to go, north seems pointless, I'd be heading to colder lands. Even though I could handle it, doesn't mean I want to degrade to it. I've been debating whether to cross the borderline to Canada, mainly because I was hoping I would find a sanctuary like this. I would love to stay here, but that's asking too much, for the tribe and Alex.
Alex reminds me so much of Jake. How caring he was for everyone in the pack, especially Seth and me. How he was able to put a smile on anyone's face without even trying. How his every attempt to be the jokester of the pack, failing to only embarrass himself. Everything corny about him, I loved about him, and Alex seemed to be more like him. But the thing is, I get a strong feeling that the same loving and caring Jake probably changed from the last time I seen him eight years ago since he left with the Cullens, following his so called imprint Renesmee Cullen, the daughter of the man and woman who ruined his life.
It has been eight years since I've seen him though, since anyone in the pack has seen him, and I admit, I balled my eyes out when he decided to leave, but I would never admit it to him. It was just a crush, and just a crush and nothing else. But I wouldn't be surprised if the pack would tell him everything when he returns in two years. He promised Billy that he would visit him after ten years of travelling with the Cullens, it was the only compromised he could give to Jake…
"Dinner is ready." Alex tapped on the door.
"Kay, I'll be out in a minute." I answered turning off the tap and grabbing the towel to dry off. I pulled on the baggy basketball mesh shorts and a baggy white t-shirt.
Being a submissive had its perks; you looked normal, and not the typical huge guy who seemed to be doubling his doses of steroids. Everyone in the pack was a dominant except me and Collin and Leah, which meant that we were responsible to play the tricksters of the pack. Seeing how we were swifter and more agile than the others, it was our job to lure vampires into a trap, letting the dominants take over. The only flaw of being a submissive was the heat cycle, Leah being the lucky one not being able to go through it due to her entire system to be frozen in time, thus halting her hormones to trigger. Quil Sr. explained that it should kick back in if she is ever imprinted on, so we have hopes for that. So it left Collin and I to be sex slaves for the rest of the pack. But after Sam almost mounted Collin, he ordered us to head to Seattle to stay in a room until it was safe to return.
"Feel better?" Alex smiled, handing me a plate of food. It did look delicious. Compared to the raw meat and berries I've been surviving off of for the past couple weeks, this was a gourmet meal.
"Looks delicious." I appraised.
"So… how about a little bit of a dinner conversation?" He attempted to smile while chewing his food.
"Like?"
"I don't know… who are these guys are that you liked." He stabbed his fork in piece of meat he cut. I winced at the thought. "You don't have to."
"No… it's fine." I sighed, taking a quick drink from my glass of water. "Where do I start…? I guess I'll start with Paul Lahote. The natural badass of the pack, indistinctly labeled the hothead due to his temper problems, but one of the reasons I find him attractive." I chuckled, "the day I met Paul, he was always understanding with me, and never shun me out for being the orphan slash bastard-child living on Quileute territories, mainly because he was a half-breed like me, his mom belonging to another tribe. He understood how it was to be looked at as… different, and we would have discussions about our similarities and him making me feel like I mattered. Even though he didn't start speaking to me until after I phased, he made sure the other pack-members didn't treat me any different. He would comfort me as I would to him, if my frustrations were getting the best of me, his solution was to let it out, and it surprised me when he told me to hit him my hardest…" I chuckled, seeing Alex join in on the laughter, "he said that I was only a submissive and I probably couldn't hurt him, so I did only a few times, and it helped, and every time he would ask me if I felt better, and I usually did. But… then he imprinted, and I became unnoticed in his world, and his imprint Rachel Black didn't like me much, clearly trying to put in a bad word about me to Paul, and even telling him that she was sure I was gay. Yeah her gay-dar beeped instantaneously in my presence." I took another bite while Alex continued to listen, he even seemed interested, "so… I pulled away and ended the conversations with Paul, before I risked getting my ass kicked."
"This Rachel sounds like a bitch?" He chuckled.
"She was." I agreed, "but her kid brother was the total opposite. Jacob Black. The one in the pack who was the most diverse and grounded in the pack, and when there was conflict between members in the pack, he always knew how to settle it and bring them to a compromise." I sighed at the many memories of Jake's understanding acts, "I admired him from afar, seeing how his older sister hated me, and she was around more, I would stand in the shadows and take commands that were difficult for me to follow." I took another drink, then another bite. "Until he met a girl named Isabella Swan, now known to us as Isabella Cullen. She fell for our enemy, and before Jake phased, the leech left her with a broken heart for Jake to put the pieces back together. I could see he loved her with his existence, even forcing himself to imprint on her at a point, but the leech was ready to end himself due to a slight misunderstanding, resulting in Bella to run to his aid and leaving Jake to hang out to dry. He was so broken, and yet when she returned after saving the man that broke her heart, she stayed by his side while still insisting on a friendship with Jake, only to hurt him more during the process." I finished eating and Alex retrieved my plate and placed it in the dishwasher while I continued. "We fought a newborn army to save her and stand behind our pack-brother in his decision to try and win her heart. I admit, it hurt to see him in this pain, but he began building a wall around himself, only letting Seth and somewhat me in. He would contemplate his feelings towards her, convincing himself that she would fall for him, and he would thank me for listening to his many pain-fests as he would call them."
"Wow… this Bella girl sounds selfish." He chuckled.
"I thought so." I agreed. "But anyways… things only seemed to intensify after that. She was still human when she married the vampire, and was willing to become one of them, only breaking Jake's heart even more. Jake fled when he received the invitation, and to this day, we still think she was stupid to send him one. But anyways, he showed up for the wedding, and then anticipatively waited for their return from the honeymoon to see if the leech turned her. He didn't change her, but he impregnated her, and then shit hit the fan. Sam insisted on ending her life, but Jake wasn't hearing any of it, so he split from the pack to protect her, my sister and brother joining his pack. I was going to because of my adoptive sibling's safety meant more to me than anything, but Sam threatened to kill me if I even thought about it. So I was forced to listen to their bitching and complaining about Jake and my sibling's stupidity. I couldn't take it anymore, I had to help them, and so I challenged Sam for my freedom to join Jake's pack. Of course he was pissed, and so was the rest of the pack. But the way I saw it, I would die eventually being stuck with these guys, I may as well fight to my death to free myself from their grip."
"Now that's some braveheart shit…" Alex chuckled.
"I guess you can say that." I smiled, "Sam may have been the largest of the pack, and alpha, but that didn't mean he wasn't slower, physically and mentally. Sam demanded no interferences, and I was glad that it was finally one on one with my older cousin. He had me near the beginning, but I wasn't giving up, it was my job as a submissive to use my smarts to protect the pack, and Sam was no exception to my abilities. Being the swiftest in the pack, the battlefield had no limits, so I tired him out with his chase, then making my move my quickly blazing by with every tear and jab at him. I was clearly alone in this battle, the rest of the pack would shout out my locations, but it would be too late before I was able to grasp the back of his neck and yank him down and slam him into the ground." I smiled at the thought. "I knocked him out cold, and the pack stood still, shocked and confused. I left to find Jake, Seth and Leah, but the rest of the pack tried to follow me. They said that I was now the alpha seeing how I took theirs out without a problem."
"That's what usually happens." Alex chuckled again.
"Yeah, I know," I agreed again, "but I told them I was fighting for my freedom, and that's what I did. I wasn't fighting to take on the role of alpha, and they could stick with their alpha that was defeated by one of his submissives." I took another drink of my water, "anyways… after finding Jake and them, Bella was already going into labor, and Leah was pissed that Jake was so willingly stood by her side the whole time. Leah even asked me how I was able to wriggle free from Sam's commands, I made the excuse that he let me go."
"Why didn't you tell her that you kicked his ass?" Alex asked.
"I don't like appraisal." He nodded and exclaimed with his mouth in a shape of an 'o' "Anyways… when the whole birthing happened, the leech changed her, and it infuriated Jake, but that thought quickly passed when he imprinted on the child."
"No way." Alex gasped.
"Yeah." I nodded. "Leah and I were left to do patrols while Bella, the newborn needed to get used to her thirst, Jake protecting the infant the whole time while Seth made acquaintances with the family of vampires. I could hold my tongue on the situation, but Leah couldn't, and Jake would bitch at her for it. The stupid thing about it, Jake was so caught up in the situation with everyone else, he finally realized I joined his pack after almost four days. To make matters worse, news of the hybrid child being born, triggered the governance of vampires, the Volturi, to jump into action and investigate, then most likely resulting in killing the child. Jake wouldn't hear of it, and so that meant that the pack had to stand behind the decision. He explained that we didn't have to and we could go back to Sam's pack, but I would've chosen death over that. But… as usual the odds were against me, Jake made a compromise with Sam for the pack's to join to fight the Volturi. No one spoke of my incident with Sam; no one was allowed due to the fact that I was considered a nothing to them now. We were ready to fight, but one of the family members that left, returned with another hybrid, proving that the child wouldn't be a harm to society. So they came to the agreement to let Jake's imprint live, and they would check up on them through the years."
"So a werewolf imprinted on a hybrid." Alex questioned flustered.
"Yeah." I answered his rhetorical question. "But after the incident, a year later the Cullens agreed that they were going to leave for awhile because people were beginning to notice they weren't aging. So Jake left with them. He said his goodbyes and thanks to the pack, but not me. I wasn't even invited to the pack meeting for some reason, and I was unaware that he left until he was gone, so I was forced to be under Sam's orders again. He didn't make it easier on me either. Seeing how we still had the odd vampire show up, the late shifters, stopped phasing, leaving Sam, Paul, Jared, Quil, Embry, Leah, Seth, Brady, and I to still live the life of fighting of bloodsuckers. To make things worse on my behalf, throughout the years everyone imprinted except my siblings and me. But Seth finally found his, a girl that was crushing on me, and it caused Seth to hate me, and then him challenging me for her affection. I didn't want to face my kid brother, so I finally came out to him that I was gay and I wanted nothing to do with her. Coincidentally, Sam and Paul heard our argument and my admittance. They both attacked me and almost killed me, then banning me from the pack and La Push." I began to wipe a tear. "Seth felt guilty and was ready and willing to follow me, until I convinced him that he needed to be near his imprint or he could die. So I left without a goodbye to the rest of my family. It bothered me at first, but then I realized that they probably felt mutual to Sam and Paul's decision."
"Fucking assholes." Alex growled, "how dare they single you out and hurt you for something you can't control."
"I'm fine now Alex." I said calmly. "I've never felt more free in my life."
"I'm sorry you had to go through this." He surprised me with a hug. "But I have to meet with the council, and I hope you are still here when I get back."
"Thanks." I wiped another tear from my cheek, "I will be, can't pass up a good sleep." I chuckled.
"I'll be back as soon as I can." He smiled and departed out the front door.
I stood up and walked straight to the spare room. I laid on the bed, staring at the pale ceiling, reminiscing on the good times that I did have with the pack, especially Paul and Jake. I missed Seth, Leah, Sue, and Harry. Especially Harry, since he passed, I couldn't get over the fact that I was forced to live without a father figure in my life.
I balled my eyes out until I drifted off into the repetitive nightmares.
I awoke to Alex staring at me, it startled me to realize that he was watching me sleep, but for how long?
"Good morning." He smiled, handing me a cup of coffee.
"Good morning." I smiled and lifted the cup to my mouth.
"We found another stray last night, but she wouldn't tell us her name." Alex explained and stood up.
"Oh," I sat up sluggishly, "where is she?"
"In the living room." He answered. "Maybe you might know her?"
"I doubt it." I smirked. "But I'll try and get her to say something." I stood up and walked out the front door hesitantly. Who knew that there were more strays then me? I peeked around the corner of the hall to see the last person I thought I would ever see in my life. "Leah?"
She lifted her head swiftly, "Wyatt?" She practically pounced at me, sobbing while she held me in her tight grasp. "I thought I would never see you again." She cried out, caressing her fingers through my hair. "I'm so glad you're alive, you have no idea how worried me and mom were… I'm just so glad you're okay." I never, EVER, in my life seen Leah cry, and this was new to me.
"I'm fine Leah." I hugged her back, "but if you don't loosen your grip, then I won't be much longer."
She chuckled and let go, wiping the tears from her eyes, "I missed your stupid jokes."
"… And I missed your bitchiness." I said sarcastically. "What are you doing here?"
"Well…" She sniffled before Alex handed her a Kleenex. "When mom and I heard you were banned because you were gay, mom was furious and practically gave the council a finger for agreeing to stand behind the decision of chasing her other baby away…" She chuckled. "… And I beat the shit out of Paul for doing what he did, seeing how you were the only one who backed him up on his many tyrant acts, but I still have to beat the shit out of Sam though."
"Don't worry about it." I smiled, "how do you think I joined Jake's pack almost eight years ago?"
"You kicked his ass?" She hugged me gleefully, Alex still silent. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because of this… I don't like appraisal Leah, and you know it." I answered.
"I know, but you do know that you can go back anytime and take over the pack as alpha and change the laws?" She looked me in the eyes.
"I don't want to be alpha, especially to a pack as stubborn as them, and besides… I'm happy to be free from them, I just need to find where I'm going next." I answered.
"Why can't you stay here? Wait…" she glared at Alex, "… did you guys ban him too?"
"No!" I said quickly, "I just got here and they've been nothing but nice to let me stay a night and let me be on my way."
"Actually, I wanted to talk to Wyatt about a few things before he makes the decision to leave." Alex finally spoke.
"I have the decision?" Leah and I looked at him curiously.
"Of course." He smiled. "I discussed it with the council and explained your situation, and they're okay with you staying as long as you want, under some conditions."
"Like?" I asked.
"One: you will agree to help my pack and be under my orders to fight off any trespassing vampires, and Two: you stay with me." He smiled. "Your free to stay too if you would like to Leah."
"Thanks, but no thanks." Leah answered, "Before you answer him Wyatt, I have another reason I came back."
"What?" I asked.
"Jake's back." She held my face in the palms of her hands, staring in my eyes, waiting for my reaction.
"That's nice to know." I replied, I didn't know how to react to it. "Why does that concern me?"
"Because he asked where you were." She answered, "and I told him… everything."
"Why? He made his choices, and what does he care if I was banned?" I hissed. It wasn't Jacob's problem.
"Because along with me, mom, and Seth… he thinks the pack were being assholes. He's infuriated and even made the threats of claiming his role as alpha to get you back." She implied.
"Either way Leah, I'm not going back, I'm never going back." I cried out, "my life has been nothing but a hellhole, excluding the fact you guys were there for me, I don't want that life again."
"So you don't want to come home?" She muttered in a shaky tone, "you know mom and would be devastated to hear this."
"She has to understand that I went through a lot of things trying to blend in with the pack to only find out that I was a worthless being to their accordance…" I sobbed, "I won't have that."
"What do I tell mom?" She hugged me again, comforting me the best way she could. "It'll break her heart to find out you're not coming back."
"I'll try to come back eventually, but not now." Just at that moment, Alex broke the tension and cleared his throat. "What is it Alex?"
"We might have to go back." Alex said hesitantly. "It need be a warning to… Jacob that if he mates with this hybrid it can lead to a risky situation."
"What are you talking about?" I asked annoyed.
"It has only happened once in history… a wolf imprinting on a hybrid. A very dangerous situation in fact." He ushered us to the kitchen. "Coffee? Tea? Juice?"
We both shook our heads.
"Well… in history, a wolf from here, the Quinault tribe, went through the similar situation of falling in love with a woman that didn't love him, chasing her for her love, until he found that she was pregnant with the bloodsucker that left her, afraid of the outcome. She was left alone to fend for herself, until the wolf stayed by her side, claiming that his love with her will never fade. The child was born, but killed her mother during the process. The wolf was ready and willing to destroy the hybrid for killing the love of his life, until he met with her eyes, imprinting on the infant. The wolf took care of her and protected her from any dangers, even the covens that tried ridding her believing she was a danger. Well she was. Because the wolf's love for his imprint was blinded for the love he had for the hybrid's mother, he thought he was in love with the woman with the slow heartbeat and thirsted for blood. They mated and she became pregnant at the age of nine, but she looked as if she was a woman of the adult years. But when she began carrying the children of the wolf, the wolf realized that the love for her was beginning to fade, that the imprint was disappearing, but he didn't know why. She didn't either; she realized she was losing the love of her life, so she hoped that her children would fill that void. Even though the wolf stayed by her side, he didn't love her anymore, only his unborn children."
"He actually stayed?" Leah smirked.
"Yes, the wolf planned on ridding the hybrid once the pups were born, but it came to his end and the hybrid's end. As soon as the birth began, the pups tore through their mother's body and swallowed the remains of his mother, then moving to their father. Tearing him to shreds and eating every piece of him. We call them demons, but everyone in mythology calls them Lycants." I stared in awe. Who would've thought that Lycants existed too, and our kind created them along with vampires. "Lycants become unstoppable. Their thirst for blood is more intense than any newborn, and their vampire abilities combined along with the wolf genes makes them very dangerous to society, even alone there are almost indestructible. When four of them were born through the couple, they set out to look for food, killing anything and everything in their path. They've destroyed villages, packs, and covens, forcing everyone to hide and flee from their paths of destruction."
"Why would they destroy covens? Not that I'm grateful for that, but wouldn't it seem pointless to kill them?" I asked puzzled.
"You like energy drinks right?" I shook my head. I didn't care for them since I didn't need them. "Well like most regular people, they use energy drinks to get them through the day…. well vampires have that some sort of similarities. It became dangerous when they destroyed covens, because they would become more energized and crazed. That was until the packs and covens decided to work together to kill these beasts. It took them ten years to capture and kill them, and humanity was in a scarce of becoming extinct, thus making it hard for vampires to exist, most dropping where they stood and turning to ash. Letting our kind to stop phasing and begin our normal lives as humans and repopulate. Some but only few leeches existed, keeping some of us on guard, and aware that they were still the enemy, and it came to the agreement through both species of wolves and vampires that we will transpire to end it if this were about to happen again."
"So what to we do?" Leah asked.
"We kill this hybrid." He bluntly spoke. "She is a danger to society, and with a wolf imprinted on her, her life or… death, or whatever you wan to call it, is at risk. All of us are at risk."
"I don't think Jake will let us get rid of Renesmee, let alone the Cullens. Family means a lot to them." Leah informed him. "We'd be demised to face them again, probably along with the Volturi as well, and I hate to say it, but the Volturi are practically indestructible."
"I know who the Volturi are, I've heard of them, and believe me, once they've discovered the circumstances, I believe they would stand by our sides if it comes to the point that we need their assistance." Alex sighed, "but I don't think we need to involve them… yet. Leah? Have they mated?"
"I don't know?" Leah muttered. "Jacob hasn't said much since he returned, he's just pissed with Sam for what he done, and Paul for letting it happen."
"I guess we have to warn him then Leah?" I questioned my adopted sister. "Maybe Jake would listen to us?"
She nodded her head. "Thanks for everything, we'll call you if we need your help." Leah ushered me for the door.
"Wait!" Alex grabbed my arm. "I can't let you go alone. I have to protect Wyatt if your pack tries to hurt him."
"They won't," Leah advised, "not while I'm there."
"I'm sorry, I can't take your word for that." Alex said.
"Why does my life concern you?" I stared into his eyes, "wait? Did you…?"
Alex nodded his head. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I didn't want to frighten you and risk the chance of losing you."
Never in my life I would ever think I would be imprinted on, my life was meant to be detached from love. A submissive like me was never meant to find love, or so it was told by Old Quil, along with Collin and Leah, we were destined to remain alone, nothing but individuals to please pack members of those who remained without an imprint, and thankfully our pack wasn't so lust crazed to require our assistance.
So ask me if I believe I can possess the companionship of another, or if I can lure a mate in my favor. Well I don't. "I can never be imprinted on Alex, so I'm sorry if you're mistaken."
"Who said you couldn't be imprinted on?" Alex interrupted.
"An elder back home." I answered. "He explained that as submissives, were here for two reasons, to lure vampires in closer, and to remain as companions to any pack mate without a mate."
"Well he lied." Alex hissed, "a submissive can be imprinted on, they possess the abilities to do so much more. When a submissive is imprinted on, the bond is much stronger, and when they mate and have children, their children can amount to great lengths, even able to start their own packs if they pleased."
"But we can't have children." I stared confused. "So why did you imprint on me when I can't help you repopulate?"
"We're shape shifters… our bodies can take on several changes…" he chuckled, "you do the math."
"Okay. I don't even want to question that." I replied embarrassed. I knew what he meant; I can form female organs if I tried, which I don't plan on doing. "Fine, you can come with us. But what about your pack?"
"They can come with us." He smiled and pulled me to his side, "come, they're waiting for us outside."
Leah chuckled at the idea of me being imprinted on, but yet she was more than happy for me. "At least one of us found love."
"You will too." I smiled, "I'm sure of it, probably soon… hopefully."
"Sooner than you think." Alex giggled, "I'll be damned, two imprints in the last twenty four hours."
"What?" Leah and I said in unison.
"Leah?" Alex led us to a man standing in a plaid shirt with faded jeans and bare feet. He stood about six foot six, one of the men that were with Alex the day they found me, Brandon I think. "This is Brandon, your soul mate."
"Yeah right." Leah giggled in embarrassment. "I highly doubt he imprinted on me."
"Well I have." Brandon finally spoke. "I've never seen someone so beautiful in my entire life. I've only known you for a moment, and it feels like I've known you for a lifetime."
"Why is it so hard for you to believe that you can be imprinted on? You both are beautiful people." Alex added. "Especially you." He walked towards me and pulled me in his arms, "can I kiss you?"
I stared into his dark mysterious eyes, and finally saw what he spoke of. This man, this man standing before me, meant the world to me, and I meant the same to him. He wanted to protect me, care for me, and love me as much as I wanted for him. The lost feeling of belonging was no longer there; it was replaced with desires, and pure lust and love that made my heart ache for his touch, for only him. Alex Hall.
I nodded as he leaned down and connected his pouty lips to mine. The warmth pulsated through my entire body. His lips were soft, wet and tasteful. He pressed his tongue against my lips, begging for entrance, which I gave him without hesitation. Our wet muscles danced in triumph while his hands groped upon my backside. Even though I was lost in ecstasy, and my eyes were closed, we had nothing but applause and whooping and hollering in glee. I was lost in the sweet taste, it was a feeling and spark I've never experienced. We forgot about the audience until Leah cleared her throat and smirked. I stared up at the man who stole my breath away, he stared down at me with desire and blaring the most handsome smile I've ever witnessed. I smiled back, blushing to the point where my face probably matched the color of a fire truck.
"Aren't you guys going to seal the deal?" Alex asked Brandon.
"We did." Brandon chuckled, Leah still looked as if she caught the bad case of butterflies. "You guys missed it with your sex show. I swear if we weren't here, things would've turned rated-R."
Alex glared at the beta. "Well you know the feeling…?" Alex leaned down to give me another quick kiss. "I want to thank you all for being here." Alex spoke to his pack. "I'm sure Brandon advised you on the situation of going to La Push." They all nodded. I couldn't believe it; his pack consisted to about twenty members, maybe even more. They too had one she-wolf. Dawn is what they called her; she was imprinted on by the third in command, Cory. "Wyatt and Leah will lead the way, and you will stay behind while I assist in the explanation. Brandon will remain in his wolf form if things turn ugly -which I'm hoping not- but if things comes down to it, Brandon will call you into battle." They all nodded.
"No." I interrupted, "I don't want a war with them. I won't put your pack at risk."
"You wont be." Brandon said, "We're your pack as much as we're Alex's pack. You are his imprint, so your safety is our concern as much as it is Alex's. All of our imprints are our concerns."
"He's right." Alex wrapped his arms around my waist. "I will try my best to halt any ideas for a fight."
"I guess that's the best I can ask." I sighed.
"Great." He smiled and kissed me again, "I love doing that."
"So do I."
"Let's go!"
A/N: Is this continuing worthy? I hope so… I already wrote half of the second chapter. I know your probably like WTF, Wyatt and Alex hit it off so quickly, but I guess it's the power of the imprint. I apologize if there are any errors, and please feel free to let me know and I will fix it. So please R&R.
Also, the next chapters of AWKOL and It's Just you will be posted by tomorrow, I'm working off my butt to finish the chapters… lol, this week has been hectic and I won't get into details… So, right now I leave to finish the chapters and hope I don't disappoint you.
Much Love,
