Disclaimer: I own nothing.

I would like to say a quick thanks to Eat my Words 4 me for agreeing to be my beta for this story, the help is much appreciated. I will also be continuing my other stories, I just get distracted. Please remember to review.

Chapter 1

"Sam, phone." Sam got up from his spot on the front lawn and jogged back inside to take the phone from his mother.

"Hello?"

"Sam, it's Billy." The deep voice of the tribes elder rumbled through the phone.

"Oh, hey Billy what can I do for you?" Sam smiled slightly as he thought of the older man who's has been the closest to a father the alpha has ever had.

"I've just hung up the phone from an interesting phone call."

"Oh, and what was this phone call about?"

"The leader to the coven of vampires our ancestors made the treaty with, Carlisle Cullen called me." Sam raised his brow in surprise then walked back outside into the yard, away from his mother and to speak in privacy.

"What did he want?"

"He asked to set up a meeting with our alpha to discuss the treaty, apparently they are moving back to forks and will be here early tomorrow morning."

"Okay then, I'll go and let the others know. We will rotate shifts until they arrive at the border, I can already feel the headache Paul is going to give me over this." Sam sighed scratching his brow.

"Okay son, let me know how it goes." Billy chuckled.

"I will, bye Billy." Sam hung up and returned the phone to its cradle before heading into the woods to phase.

When he was far enough into the woods so he wouldn't be spotted easily, he let out a loud howl calling his pack brothers to him. He was soon joined by Paul who was followed closely by Jared and Embry who was the newest member of the pack having only phased three weeks before.

"What's going on?" Paul asked. He was the second to phase after Sam and was the packs second in command. The beta.

"The vampires are moving back to town." Paul growled at that. Out of all the wolves, he was the most bitter towards vampires. "Can it Paul, we will be meeting with them when they arrive tomorrow morning but until then we will be swapping shifts. Paul I want you and Jared to take the first shift at 12am, Embry you're with me and will be taking over at 4. One sniff of a vamp and you call out immediately, I don't want anyone engaging them alone. Understood?" Paul just scowled.

"Damn leeches, why couldn't they just stay gone?" He muttered.

"I mean it Paul."

"Yeah, yeah." He muttered. "Christ, you need to get laid and lighten up." They went their separate ways to rest up before starting their shifts.

Sam had dated Leah Clearwater for a year before he phased for the first time and began learning the legends and ways of the wolf. Once he learned about imprinting he went to visit her to see if it would happen and when it didn't he was devastated. They broke up soon after as he thought it better not to be dating when he eventually did imprint and being an alpha imprinting was inevitable and he would break someone's heart. It had been hard enough breaking up with Leah and the guilt was horrible but he figured it would have been worse the longer he left it and the more invested they became in each other.

"Are you okay Sam?" He turned to find Embry trailing behind him slowly.

"I'm fine pup, something on your mind?" He asked seeing the young shifters brows furrowed in thought.

"What's going to happen when we meet with the vampires tomorrow?"

"We will discuss the treaty and make adjustments where they are needed, clear up the boundaries and re-establish the line. We will both be sticking to our own sides of the line, so there will be no fighting."

"Will we be in wolf or human?"

"We will all arrive in wolf but I will need to shift to human as alpha and spokesperson, I want you at the back of the group. You are still young and have a lot to learn before you can engage with vampires, friendly or hostile." Embry nodded.

"I think I can handle that." He replied as the reached the tree line at the back of Sam's house.

"We'll see." Was Sam's last thought before he phased out.

XxX

Sam hadn't slept a wink before heading out to take his shift with Embry, he was too wired and couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to happen. He wasn't sure if it would be a good thing or not.

The sun was just peeking up over the horizon when they caught the scent of vampires close by.

"Sam?" Embry asked cautiously, stepping closer to the safety of his alpha.

"That's them stay with me until the others come." With that Sam threw his head back and let out another loud howl like the one he gave earlier only this time slightly more urgent. "They're here, hurry up." He thought to his pack brothers as their thoughts joined his. Sam quickly shut off his thoughts to the others, not wanting them to hear the worries he had going at the moment. As alpha Sam was able to close off his thoughts to the others, he was also twice as strong and tall. In human form Sam stood at 7 ft tall and had muscle to go with the height, when he was in wolf he was at least another foot taller then that.

Paul and Jared quickly caught up with the other two, pushing the younger wolf behind them and flanking their alpha who was walking two feet ahead of the pack. It wasn't long before they reached the border where four male vampires stood, the older blonde spoke first.

"My name is Carlisle Cullen." He stepped out a little from the rest, clearly the leader. Sam nodded his head and quickly hid behind a tree to phase, pulling on a pair of cut offs before stepping back out to greet them.

"I am Sam Uley the alpha, I was told you wanted to meet with me to discuss the treaty." Carlisle nodded.

"Yes I've had two others join my family since the treaty was made, not turned by me. We still abide by the animal diet and will stick to our lands so long as you do not attack us without warrant. If I am unable to be contacted my son Edward will be the one to take my place." He inclined his head to the back where a young looking male vampire was half hidden behind a big brawny vampire.

The vampire Edward stepped to the side of the big vampire slightly so that his face could be seen while still clinging to his arm. Obviously a submissive and an awfully small one at that, he's 5 ft 4 at most.

When the baby faced vampire looked up, he looked directly at Sam who instantly felt his world shift and tied itself to that one being for good.

"Oh god." Was the only thought the vampire was able to catch from the handsome shifter before his thoughts were shut down and hidden from him.
