Hiya! Well I figured out how to add chapters to this story so that's great. I'm excited to continue with this story. Any constructive criticism is welcomed.

Also I do not own Twilight or any of the characters. Enjoy!

After an hour of the two being phased together and patrolling the territory of LaPush the siblings felt another mind join them.

'Leah.'

The siblings were in a small clearing away from everyone in LaPush and Jake made their way toward them. Leah and Seth were laying down when he saw the pair. Seth stood up, shook his coat for a second and walked toward him. 'Don't ruin this.' Was all he said before going into the tree line and made his way back to the Clearwater Home. Jake looked at Leah who simply chuckled and kept her eyes on the russet male.

For a moment Jake seemed intimidated by her. Thus making the female smirked hearing his thoughts.

Seth had phased out finally and Jake took his spot in front of Leah and laid down on the grass with her. He stared at her and Leah once again saw how she looked like in great detail. Blue silver eyes, light gray fur that almost had a twinge of silver with a blueish tint. However her eats had a bit a sandy color like Seth's fur and they peaked right next to her eyes like an eyeliner.

'Leah I…I don't know how to say this. I don't want this to be weird between us.' He said and she nodded. 'I don't know if I want this imprint.' He sighed.

Leah figured as much. The way he looked at Bella…she knew as soon as she saw them together.

'But I don't want to hurt you. I don't want to be like Sam.' He said. His memory going back to when San first imprinted on Emily. 'He tried fighting for you but the imprint is so strong.' He sighed.

Leah felt a little sore about seeing the imprint but a little bit better knowing that Sam at least tried.

'I don't want you to feel like you don't have a choice.' Leah spoke softly.'This hurts like hell though I'm not gonna a lie.' She whimpered and out of instinct Jake put his head across her shoulders. 'I don't want to take away your freedom of choosing. I just don't want to hurt anymore.' She laid her head on her paws.

Jake whimpered as he lowered his head. He didn't want to hurt her. Ever. But Bella needed him.

'Why didn't you want to be alpha?'She looked at him. Her head slightly tilted to the side.

'I don't want to lead anyone. Or alpha command anyone. The alpha command can't be ignored, it hurts like he's biting down into your heart.' Jake sighed. 'You actually did it to him when he attacked me.' Jake replayed the memory.

'I not sure why he said no in the first place. He has Emily.' She sighed.

'Yeah..' he growled but then sighed. His wolf was angry. The thought of Sam having an inkling of a feeling towards Leah angered Jake's wolf. His emotions rolled off him like thunderclouds consuming Leah's thoughts.

Leah got up and nudged the side of his head. 'I want you to be able to decide. I won't force anything.' She said. The storm of him mind calmed and settled into a cloudy night. H was still conflicted. He wanted Bella but the wolf wanted Leah. She knew that the wolf would do anything she says at the drop of a hat, but she knew better. Just like how Jake didn't want to command anyone, the same way she didn't want to force herself on him.

'Thank you..' Jake looked up at the standing she wolf who was so kind to him as to letting him decide. She was letting his human side choose his fate. He began to rub his head on her . She really was the best.

'I know.' She smirked and turned tail to her house. Jake stood and ran one last perimeter but made sure she got home safely. As she went to phase she thought about her family and about him right before she left.

Jake was conflicted and opened the floodgates of his mind now that he was alone. He felt so happy just behind around her. Suddenly LaPush wasn't all rainy and glomming and dark. She was his guiding star at night. She was like a rising sun on a new day. The moon chasing away the dark night shadows. She was his whole universe. And this made him feel like shit. He was rejecting her for Bella. His sweet wonderful Bella. He was close too, filling up the cracks of her broken heart with all the love in the world. And yet Bella still pinned after her running away, blood sucking ex-boyfriend.

He growled at the thought of the Cullens and wanting to tear them up to pieces. If the treaty his great grandfather made with them wasn't there, the wolves would have killed them. No more kids, like Seth, turning into wolves. No more worries, no more supernatural mayhem. Just normal teens finishing up high school.

Jake sighed as he realized he was taking his fifth lap around the clearwater property. He went to move away when he hissed in pain. His ears picked up on another sound. He turned to face the house, knowing which one was Leah's. The light was on and she was clutching her chest. He could hear her mumbling an ow as he watched her. There was a pressure building up in his chest the further away he was from her.

He didn't want to hurt her. He hated her in pain and anything that caused it. He would sleep in the rain if he had to keep her from feeling the same pressure in his chest. As he moved closer he watched her silhouette physically relax and she went to lay on her bed and turned off the light. He couldn't help the whimper they escaped his throat. He thought about her and tested their newfound ability.

'Lee?' He asked in his mind softly but directly at her.

'Yes Jake?' She responded back in a tired voice. As if the day had just rushed back into her head.

'It's going to be okay Lee. I promise.' He looked up at her window. He had to make sure that she would be alright. Always guarding and protecting her.

'Thanks Jake.' She paused for a moment.

Jake's ears strained to hear passed Seth's and Harry's snoring to hear her heart beat. It was slowing down.

'Goodnight.' She murmured in his head.

'Goodnight Leah.' He laid his head on his paws and closed his eyes. He focused his breathing to match hers and drifted off to sleep.

Leah closed her front door and locked it before stopping for a moment. She was a wolf. A shifter. And the only female in history. Her hands laid on her stomach and she frowned. She didn't know how this would work. But she knew now that she couldn't leave. She would have to stay here and protect the tribe. She made her way upstairs when a pressure began to build in her chest. As she reached the room she seemed almost out of breath and clutched her chest as if something heavy was pulling on her heart. "Ow." She muttered and then the pain lessen. She sighed in relief before making her way to her bed and shutting off the light.

She then heard a whimper and she knew someone was outside.

'Lee?' Jacob's voice floated through her head like a gentle whisper.

'Yes Jake?' She yawned. She was exhausted and nervous and she wanted to scream all in one.

'It's going to be okay Lee. I promise.' He said.

Leah knew in the instant he was going to hold his promise. He always did.

'Thanks Jake.' She sighed as she got comfortable in her bed. Her eyes grew heavy as she closed them. 'Goodnight.'

'Goodnight Leah.' He said as she heard her heart beat drum in her ears. But she ignored it and listened to the heart beat of the wolf outside the window.
