6 months later:
Jacob's POV:
" Jacob, wake up. Sam's here," came dad's voice though the door. I grunted in my sleep and snuggled back into my pillow.
" Jacob Black get up. We have a treaty meeting with the bloodsuckers.," said Sam Uley in his alpha tone. I hated it when he used his alpha voice. He knew we couldn't disobey him then.
Fuck my life.
Sighing, I got up, not being able to ignore the call of my alpha. "Ass," I mumbled under my breath as I passed him to go to the bathroom.
He gave me a smug smile.
I acted sluggishly on purpose, trying to piss Sam off for getting me out of bed. Finally, after what seemed like hours, I dragged myself down to the kitchen and grabbed a bagel.
" Come on Jake. We don't have all day," called Sam.
"Why are you here?" I asked as I wolfed down-no pun intended-my breakfast.
" I had to speak to the elders about the treaty," replied Sam, " now come on."
" Where's everyone else?" I asked as I pulled the front door close behind me and got rid of my shorts.
"They are meeting us on the way there," replied Sam as he took off his clothes and tied them to the cord on his leg.
We both phased.
As my bones were elongating and the russet fur shot out of my skin, I gave a small moan of pleasure. I loved phasing now. It was like second nature to me. It felt good to get such a release from everything. From dad, from school, from Bella, from everything else that bothered me. In wolf form, I could run for miles, my senses were sharper, I felt like nothing could stop me.
" Jakester! Welcome! Sam, finally dragged you out of bed," came Embry's voice through my head.
I heard a snigger.
" Shut up, Quil," I replied with a smile as my best friends teased me.
" Are you two, the only ones phased?" I asked.
" Uhm.. no Leah and Jared were here too. But, they disappeared like 5 mins ago," replied Quil.
" Boom chicka wah wah," came Embry's reply.
Gross, I thought. Jared had imprinted on Leah, the moment she turned into a wolf. Sam's ex-girlfriend. I thought Sam would have killed Jared. Leah and Jared were the worse tempered people I for Paul. It was a mystery to me how they could be together and not kill each other.
" Simple, everytime we get into an argument, we fuck instead of fighting," came Jared's reply as he phased in.
"Enough," grunted Sam, who had been quiet till now, " Where's Leah, you doofus?"
" Oh, she's cleaning up. She'll be here."
" Jeez, you'd think you can try to keep our love life a secret," groaned Leah as she joined us from across the woods. From my head, I saw her nuzzling Jared with her wolf head, " Seth has the flu. He won't be joining us. My mom does not want him phasing while he's sick."
"Fine, you can fill him in then," came Sam's reply.
" Will do."
" Ok, here's the deal. I will do the talking. You don't butt in and do not provoke the leeches. Got it?" said Sam, all business now.
" Got it," we replied.
" Paul?" Sam pressed.
" What?"
" Did you hear what I said? No. Provoking. Allowed."
" Fine," came Paul's answer. I sniggered. He was clearly not happy about having to be civil with the leeches that lived in Forks.
"If we killed all of them, we wouldn't have to worry about this stupid treaty and no one else from the Rez would be shifting," came Paul's thought, " the wolves are younger. Have you not noticed?"
" Paul, this treaty was decided by our Elders. You have to trust that they know better and as carriers of their legacy, we will obey them. Shape shifting is something to be proud of. We are the warriors of the tribe. We protect our people."
"That is noble," came a velvety voice from behind the line of trees that lead into the clearing where the Cullens were standing.
We were so busy discussing that I had not noticed that sickly sweet smell of leech.
We stopped mid-stride and growled.
" Sorry," came a male voice, "my son doesn't mean any , please go join your brothers and sisters."
So this must be the doctor, I thought. Next to me, Sam nodded his wolf head.
Phasing and pulling his clothes back on, " We will be joining you now," said Sam to the figure behind the trees, " please step back to give us some room. I would really appreciate it."
" Of course," replied the male vampire as he blurred across the clearing to join his coven.
Sam motioned for me to move into the clearing. As we stepped into the clearing-me as a large russet wolf, and Sam in his human form-we were met by 5 other wolves. I grinned at my packmates as I turned to focus my attention on the leeches infront of us.
They were surprised and in awe, I could tell, at the beasts infront of them.
I felt smug and as the other wolves picked up on my thoughts, the feeling of euphoria filled us as a group.
I studied the group.
One of the males stepped forward. He was about 6'2 with blonde hair, his amber eyes were shiny and they looked...welcoming?
He looks like a model, came Leah's awed voice in my head. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Jared nudge her neck. Ignoring them, I focused on the rest of the Cullens.
" I'm Carlisle. Carlisle Cullen and this is my family." He said family, I noted and not 'coven'. Interesting.
" This is my wife, Esme," he gestured towards a woman of about 5'6 with caramel coloured hair and a heart shaped faced. Like all the Cullens, she had amber eyes too. Well, atleast that way they look related, I thought and Embry sniggered in his head.
" This is my son, Emmett," continued the doc as he gestured to the burly dark-haired male towering everyone in the family. He looked like he could be around Sam's height. Surprisingly, he grinned at us and waved.
Sam nodded at him, acknowledging his greeting.
" This is Rosalie Hale, Emmett's mate," said the doctor as he pointed to the statuesque, blonde who was holding hands with Emmet. She was gorgeous. The most beautiful woman, I've seen.
The guys agreed with me, even Jared. Heck, even Leah couldn't disagree.
" This is Alice Cullen," continued the doctor, unaware of the discussions going on in our heads. He pointed to the small pixie with spiky hair. She gave us a smile and a wave, just like Emmett. It looked like she was jumping up and down.
Weird.
Wait... Alice. This is the chick who could see the future. Bella said they has special powers or something.
" Jasper Hale is Alice's mate," the male leech pointed to the tall and lean blonde next to the pixie's side. Jasper had some purple bruising under his eyes. There was something about his skin... I couldn't place it, but he had the air of a dangerous man. I knew he had some sort of power too, but I couldn't remember what Bella had said. Really, when she talks about the leeches, I ignore her. She's idolizes them. Like they were some sort of God. Sure, they were pleasant on the eyes, but that's about it. Really, they were creatures of the night. Like bats. I laughed mentally at my own joke.
" This is Edward, Bella's boyfriend." I stared at the doctor for a while. He said boyfriend, not mate! Does this mean he doesn't belong with Bella after all?
Smugly, I looked up at the bronzed hair vampire, who seemed so different that his family. Even in appearance. He stuck out, like a sore thumb. As his eyes met mine, I noticed a sadness lurking behind his eyes. Suddenly, I couldn't look away.
I was drawn to him. I wanted to cross the clearing and rock him in my arms until the sadness left. For the longest time, it was as if he was the only one in the world.
I felt my body temperature increase. A heat took over my body, from head to toe. A stronger and fiercer heat than before. It wasn't like I was being burnt. No, it was more like a sun was glowing from inside me. Threatening to explode out of my body. Let the world see the sunshine that was inside me.
Edward Cullen.
He was the sun.
He was my earth.
He was my gravity.
I kept my eyes on him, as did he.
"Jake."
"Jake."
"Jacob!"
When I felt a nudge on my shoulder, I looked away from the lee...Ed...him.
I let out a yelp of despair, catching the attention of my alpha and everyone else in the clearing.
I lifted my eyes to meet Sam's.
" What is it?" he asked, face full of concern. " Jake?" he asked again as I stared across the clearing to my vampire-who was still staring at me.
" Jacob, phase now," ordered Sam in his alpha voice when he couldn't get anything from the others or from me.
As landed on my ass on the grass, I kept my eyes on...him.
Had I...? I couldn't have.
Wolves do not...not on leeches.
That would be going against nature. They were made to kill us and we were made to kill them.
It couldn't be.
I must be mistaken.
There would be no way in hell...
" Jacob Black. What the hell is the matter with you?" asked Sam as he crouched next to me.
I was still in shock.
" Oh for god's sake. Sam, cover him up will you!" came Jared's voice. I felt them freeing my shorts from my leg and pulling them up.
" What's the matter? Is he alright?" came Carlisle's voice, " Can I help?"
"No," came Sam's answer.
" Sam," I whispered as my eyes searched that of my alpha's.
"What is it, Jake?"
I pulled him into a hug. I could feel the hot sting of tears behind my eyelids.
What the fuck is wrong with me? Suddenly, I am a girl?
No wolf has ever imprinted on a male before.
Especially not a vampire.
A male vampire. I imprinted on Edward fuckin' Cullen.
Author's Note:
Hi everyone,
For those who don't know me. I'm Lisa. Well, this is my second story, but first Twilight FF. I've been obsessed with Jacob and Edward as a couple for a while now. I usually just read Jakeward stories... I woke up with the idea for this story in my head this morning. And I started typing furiously for two hours. I have a few chapters ready. I would love some reviews and comments about what you think of the story so far. They do help a lot. I've used an M rating for language really. For some reason, I think Jacob's the kind of guy who swears a lot. And Paul! I don't know if I can write a male/male sex scene. I would like to try, but it's hard. So, I won't make any promises. But,I will give it a shot? :S
Anyways, I look forward to your reviews.
Lisa
