The Bonfire
Once back on the beach everyone started eating so Damious and I got a plate of our own, sat down on a log and began eating. My brother was sitting by Sean and Lucas so I sat by D and Taylor who were fighting over the last muffin. Everybody else was sitting by their imprints. I finally got fed up with the bickering that I took the muffin in their hands and mine and threw it in the pit of the fire, knowing they wouldn't try getting it.
They both looked at me like I was the devil in disguise. Everyone looked at me shocked that I threw away one of Aunt Emily's famous muffins so I said, "I got tired of the bickering so since they couldn't settle it none of this log should have any!" "Come on Brooke, you could've just tossed it to me," Embry says with a pouty look on his face. "And then have three wolves fighting over the last muffin? Uh, sorry but no!" I say with authority. "Gosh, you've been hanging out with Leah way too long Brookeylin." Uncle Paul says with a smirk on his lips pissing me off. I growl giving him a warning that he's pissing me off. I give Dad the help look and he nods, "Guys knock it off... Okay so we called this bonfire because Damious has imprinted, but before he tells her, I'm going to retell the legends," Dad says smiling at D.
"The Quilutes have always been a small tribe but we've always had magic in our blood. We once spirit warriors, which brings in the legend of Taha Akii and his brother. See when we went up as spirit warriors we totally left our bodies like astrological traveling. In fact our ancestors' wives would watch over our bodies. Well Taha Akii went up into the spirit world and so did his brother. When his brother came back from the spirits he went into Taha Akii's body and slit his old body's throat. Years went on and Taha Akii's Brother made a law where no one could travel into the spirit world so the people wouldn't know the truth. One day a young man went up into the spirit world, but was killed. Taha Akii was upset and angry that he saw a wolf hunting and asked if he could share its body with the wolf and the wolf abliged. He finally came back to his normal body and retook his claim as chief.
"Years droned on and nothing out of the ordinary happened until we heard about people in the Makah tribe being drained of their blood. Our warriors one day came across something that looked like a man, walked like a man, but did not act like a man. He was the thing who had been attacking the Makah tribe. Our warriors' teeth were the only thing that could tear the cold man apart but fire was the only thing that would completely demolish the creature. Our tribe lived in fear that the cold man was not alone... and they were right, the woman took her revenge out on our people slaughtering everything in her path. Taha Akii was the only spirit warrior left after his two sons were killed. He fought the cold woman but she was to strong and then the wife of Taha Akii: an ordinary person with no special powers sacrificed herself in order for Taha Akii to defeat the cold woman. Once finished he ran into the woods and was never seen again.
"We don't know why we do it. Is it to find our soul mates, or to make stronger wolves, that we don't know but those of us who have know it's the most amazing unexplainable thing. We call it imprinting. It's supposed to be rare but apparently it's not so rare in our pack.
"Then there's the legend about the Cullen. In a later pack, they were out patrolling and we came across a coven of cold ones that were latterly hunting animals. They said they were different that they didn't drink the blood of humans but instead animals. They had yellow eyes instead of the red so we made a treaty with them... if they promised to stay off Quilute land, didn't change or kill any humans, we wouldn't destroy them.
"We lived in peace with them for about fifty years or so until a girl came to live with her father in Forks. She fell in love with one of Cullens in high school. She left for a week one day and came back with a broken leg. Half a year later an accident happened and the Cullens left town leaving the girl alone, and broken in the woods back behind her house. She was found late that night by one of us. She was like a living zombie for almost five months before she became a little better. She came to the Res. one day with two motor cycles for me to fix up and then teach her how to ride. My reward was that I got to keep one of the bikes. So obviously I agreed to this. Bella and I became best friends over this period of time. When I was done building the bikes I taught her how to ride and that was 'fun' to do. Teaching a very accident prone and clumsy person to ride a motorcycle. Anyway then one night we went to see a movie with a friend of hers. He was annoying and winey but I put up with it to see Bella. He threw up in the restroom leaving Bells and I outside to talk. When he came back out he said something that made me mad but we went back to her house and I dropped her and him off at her house and made sure they both went home and I did the same. When I got home I phased for the first time. Between a lot of things there was a Newborn vampire fight because of this bloodsucker who wanted Bella dead because the Cullens killed her mate in Arizona because he was trying to kill Bella, In that battle I got all my bones in my right side broke and then rebroke because the bones healed wrong, Bella said she was going to marry one of the Cullens instead of me. I got angry when I saw the wedding invitation and no one heard from me for about three months. I came back the night of the wedding found out that Paul Imprinted on my sister broke his nose several times. Ahh here comes the interesting part of the legend to tell.
"So when Bella and the Cullen she married comes back from their honeymoon she's pregnant with what we all called the spawn of the leech. The pack wanted to kill Bella and the Cullens except for me on the Bella part. It got to the point that I denied an alpha's order and ended up splitting the packs."
"What I didn't realize was that both Seth and Leah could switch packs then. So instead of just me I had two extra bodies following me around like lost puppy dogs. Time went by and Bella had gotten several broken bones and ruptured organs, but was stubborn as all get out about terminating the mutant spawn. She also drank blood towards the end realizing that's part of the reason she was in such poor health. She wasn't the only one in poor health either; her husband was as well with his god offal sister who I called Blondie. Her husband looked like he was dieing, and his eyes were as black as space itself without any stars. He kept up a mask for her though. In the end I gave them permission to change Bella realizing that it would make things easier.
"I also got my happy ending and much more than what I ever bargained for. Since then the pack and Cullens have been allies, and those are the legends. If you all are wondering how 'the mutant spawn' was born I'm not telling, but let me put it this way, there are not words for how violent it was."
I looked over at mom and she was just smiling at how dad had told the legends.
"So D who did you imprint on?"Sean asks grimacing."Why don't you tell us Damious, who is the lucky girl?" Embry asks laughing. "Well, let me describe her: long dark red seeder hair, native skin, and eyes that change colors. As for her personality: she's funny, smart, advanced, and a spit fire who can give a glare that looks into your soul." He says looking into the fire. As I'm listing to whom he's describing the girl to be and look like she sounds like me.
"Does this girl have a twin sister, 'cause if she does her sister and I might have to hook up," Sean says. "You are such an ass Sean that was so low of you to say, you're starting to remind me of Stella. I'm surprised you didn't imprint on her yourself. If I were you I'd be embarrassed considering it was said in front of everyone. I mean it's totally different when it is just us but all of us had to hear your very very sick demented comment!" Allie says saying something for the first time of the night. "Nice one Allie couldn't have said that better myself if I'd tried but I'll add on to that if you don't mind?" "Go right ahead Brooke," she replies. I looked around for everyone's approval and they all just shrugged. So I got up off the log and decked him in the jaw and heard it crunch. I heard gasps behind me and Sean looked at me like I was crazy. "Don't move or I will reset your mouth to heal crooked or it heals crooked on its own." I said too lowly. He didn't do anything as I reset his jaw and told him to hold the position it was in. I went back over and sat down.
"Okay, so go on describing the girl D," Aunt Clarie says calmly. "She has a twin brother and her theme song that she lives her life by is 'Bitch' by Mardeth Brooks, and that's all I'm saying, because she just figured it out," Damious says the whole time looking at me as he describes the girl.
I'm the first to speak and it comes out as a whisper, "When did you imprint on me?" I ask. "The first time I saw you afterwards in the woods. Everyone knew but you," He whispers back. So that's why everyone has been leaving us alone to without worrying that we would try anything. It totally made sense now. Why Allie and I have grown apart since we used to be like sisters; she was jealous that I was taking up her brother's time. Why Emily invited me over; it wasn't because she needed to talk to me but so D could see me.
"Hey, we're going to head out, Sam and Emily said you could stay with them Aria," Dad says smiling. After that people just started filling out. The next time I looked up from the fire I noticed that it was just D and I. "Brooke, if you don't want to stay with us I can just take you home," D says catching my eyes. "No, it's just a lot to take in," I say looking into his dark oak brown eyes. They had since grown darker with passion.
He leaned in making our lips inches apart. I leaned in as well causing our lips to be millimeters0 apart. I felt his warm breath on my throat and I knew my heart was racing. I closed my eyes and felt D finish the distance between our lips, felt his smolderdering fingers tangle in my long hair making me sigh at the touch. He licked my lips asking for an invitation which I couldn't help but grant. I ran my fingers in his short black hair and tangled them in my nails as I heard him moan againsed my mouth. I felt one of his hands untangle from my hair and support my lower back pulling me closer to him. I broke away breathless but D just kissed me along my jaw making a line to my ear and down my throat suckling as he went. "Are your parents actually home or are they staying at the cabin your mom has on Makah Res.?" I ask between staggered breaths.
