Hello, hello my lovely readers. I am so sorry that I take forever and a day to post new chapter but guess what? I finished my first year at college and now I have the whole summer to write! Thank you so much for keeping up with my story. I have a feeling that I'm really rusty and I'm hoping it gets better the more I write. So enjoy this new chapter!
Seth POV
I can't believe took Embry's patrol shift.
I was enjoying a nice nap in my room when all the sudden-
"Seth, take my shift tonight."
All I could do was glare at him, "What are you doing in my house?"
"Take my shift!" He repeated.
"How about no?"
"C'mon, man! I have a hot date tonight!"
"With your mom?"
"Ha-ha you're so funny. She's super-hot and I forgot I had to do patrol tonight!"
"Guess your outta luck then." I turned away from him, closing my eyes.
"Please, Seth! I might actually have a chance with this girl…" I thought back to how down Embry has been feeling ever since he realized he's one of the few guys that hadn't imprinted. Ever since Jake and Quil imprinted, Embry had been feeling… lonely.
I buried my face deeper into my pillow, "Fine. I'll do it."
"YES! Thanks, Seth! I owe ya!" He smacked my back as he ran out of my room.
Yes, Embry. Yes you do.
This has been the most boring patrol I have ever been on. Ever since the Volturi left, things around here have died down. But Sam and Jake always have patrols running just to make sure our territory was safe.
'This sucks.'
'Suck it up.' I sensed as Jake phased. 'S'not so bad.'
'You haven't been out here for 2 hours.' I thought back to him. All the sudden I saw something zoom past me. A white blur lit up by the moonlight. 'The hell was that!'
'Follow it!' Jake commanded. I took off, that... thing was fast. I couldn't keep up. I weaved my way through the trees struggling to keep up. I couldn't recognize its scent. Human? Vampire? No. Animal? I couldn't tell. I followed its scent until I reached my favorite spot. It's a lake with a small water fall completely hidden from civilization. Nobody really knew about it since it was so far from town. It's where I went to clear my head.
That was when I made my way through the trees and I saw her.
'Wow.'
That was all I could think. I could tell Jake was seeing this too. 'Uh-oh.' I heard him think.
She took my breath away.
I took a couple steps forward making sure I was still hidden by the shadow.
She was… beautiful.
Her dark hair clung to her bare upper body as she waded in the water. The water around her glowed as it touched her. And even though it was dark, I could see that her hair was deep brown and her skin had a nice tan, almost as if she spent the entire summer laying on a beach somewhere. It took me a second to realize that she was naked. I looked away…completely embarrassed for staring. God, I'm such a pervert now. I tried to fight the urge to look back but I couldn't resist. Her back was to me. It didn't matter, her hair was long enough cover her… ahem… assets.
'Damn.' Jake thought.
Wait. Jake! I had forgotten he was there.
'Nope still here.'
Well this is embarrassing.
I watched as she dived under the water.
She disappeared under the dark water. But it wasn't long before she popped back up to the surface.
When she got a breath air, I heard her begin to giggle. I started to move closer.
I kept taking slow steps towards her… I couldn't resist…
'Seth. Stop.' Jake said. A command from the alpha should've stopped me but I kept taking steps until…
SNAP!
I looked down to the twig broken underneath my paw.
'Crap.' I looked up to meet two of the greenest eyes I have ever seen. And just like that I knew this was it.
Imprinting.
Everything that I thought was important began to float away and the only thing tying me down was this mysterious, green eyed girl. Her eyes were wide and she seemed frozen. Slowly she reached her hand out to me and I took a step towards. She then closed her fist, not second later the ground underneath me began to shake. Even being on four legs, I lost my footing. By the time I stood back up, she was gone.
'What the hell was that?' Jake's voice reappeared in my mind.
'I have no idea. But, I think I imprinted… and I don't know who she is.'
So I hope you liked this new chapter! (I know it was a little rough!) Now we're gonna get to the good stuff! I think this is going to be the last time that I do a Seth POV because I'm not sure if I like it. Let me know what you guys think with a review!
xoxo,
