Thank you for your reviews :) okay Susie got hurt when Jake and Embry phased her room isn't big enough for two huge werewolves to phase in without getting hurt…
Embry
I am a monster, I hurt the woman I loved because I couldn't control my temper, and I scarred her for life.
"Susie, I am so sorry, I never wanted to hurt you, and I did, I promise Susie I will never hurt you again" I pleaded as I took her hand in mind.
It's been a week since the accident and she has yet to wake up, says she is still in shock, I haven't left her side for one minute, but every minute that I am with her I cannot help but think that I am the reason she is lying in the hospital, every time my eyes scan the three red scars that now run along her back and arm I feel nothing but hatred for myself.
"Embry?" I don't look up but I know its Emily.
"Embry, you have been here for a week, please get some rest, there are plenty of people who are willing to watch her"
"I am a monster Emily, it's my fault she's here, and I left my mark on her" I was disgusted with myself.
"Oh Embry, please, look at me" she cupped my face in her hands "you cannot blame yourself for this, Em, the last thing she would want is to wake up and find you tormenting yourself, take it from me someone who has been in her position, she loves you, she could never blame you"
"Emily, I appreciate your support but it doesn't change the disgust I feel for myself, I was supposed to protect her not hurt her"
"Embry Call, don't be a fool" I looked up to see Leah standing in the doorway.
"Embry, you have done nothing more than protect my little girl, you slipped, it could have happened to any of us, don't let this accident tarnish everything you have done for her"
"Leah, it happened to me, I was weak, Quil never hurt Claire, and Jake never hurt you I am the weak one."
"Jake didn't hurt me but he hurt his daughter, he hates himself just as much as you do, you both lost control but it doesn't mean that she will hate you for it"
"Embry?" I froze as I heard Susie call my name so low that the only reason I could hear her was because of wolf hearing.
"Susie, love, I am here"
Her eyes fluttered open, she locked eyes with me and I couldn't help the tears that started streaming down my cheek.
"Em, don't cry I am fine" her voice was hoarse.
"Oh baby your awake!" Leah knelt down on the opposite side of me.
"Mom, where's dad and Billy and Sam?"
"They are all outside; do you want them to come in?"
She nodded, Leah and Emily exited leaving me alone with the love of my life, Susie placed a hand on my cheek, catching a tear, and she froze as she caught sight at the new scars that rested on her skin.
"Embry, what happened to me?"
"I am so sorry Susie, I didn't mean to hurt you" I was sobbing.
"Em, please don't cry, just tell me what happened, all I remember is you and daddy exploding and me getting these scars"
"Susie, you remember all the legends?"
"Of course, why?"
"Susie they are all true"
"Are you trying to tell me that you and my dad are wolves?"
I nodded, she gasped, I took a good look at her face, and she was horror stricken.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I couldn't, it was too dangerous"
"Dangerous? Embry you could never hurt me"
"SUSIE, I DID HURT YOU, I AM A MONSTER, LOOK WHAT I DID TO YOU, I LOST CONTROL FOR ONE SECOND AND I SCARRED YOU FOR LIFE"
" Embry, please, stop, you lost control once, that doesn't erase all the years that you protected me like I was the most important person in the world, these scars do not change how I feel about you, I could never see you as a monster, I love you Embry, you are the only man I could ever love."
"Susie, you're the only woman I can see, for me there is no other woman it's just you"
"Why Embry, why am I the only one?"
"Susie, you're my imprint"
"What does that entail?"
"Imprinting is this wolf instinct, it's when you find your soul mate your other half, and you remember the legend of the third wife?"
She nodded "She was so special because she was Taha Aki's imprint the one that he was meant to be with, it's not to say he didn't love his other wives, but the pull he felt for the third one was stronger than him it was as if she was the one that tied him to the ground"
"So, what you are telling me is that I am your soul mate?"
"Yeah, I imprinted on you the moment I laid my eyes on you when you were just a baby, but I didn't have romantic feelings for you, I loved you like a big brother, I wanted to protect you from everything bad in the world, but I always knew that one day I would fall in love with you because at the end of the day I was destined for you as you were for me"
"Who else has imprinted?"
"Quil on Claire, Jared on Kim, Sam on Emily, Paul on Rachel, Your brother on Renesmee, and your mom and dad on each other"
"What do you mean on each other?"
"Susie your mom is the only female werewolf in the history of the tribe, so your parents had a double imprint"
"My parents are werewolves, hold on all of you aren't you, including my brother" it wasn't a question rather a statement.
"Yeah, Sam just phased a week and a half ago."
She was quiet, I couldn't take my eyes off her, she was so beautiful and I loved her with every fiber in my body "Susie, are you okay?"
"Yes, it's just a lot to take in"
"I understand if you're scared" I assured her.
"Don't be a fool Embry, I am not scared of you, any of you, you are my family that fact that your werewolves doesn't change that"
The door burst open as Jake ran to his daughter's side "Baby please forgive me" he pleaded to his only daughter.
"Daddy don't be silly, there is no reason to forgive you, Embry told me everything I understand it was an accident, I know you would never intentionally hurt me"
"Your just like you mom" he mumbled as he kissed her hand.
"Yup, I am fighter" she told him as she touched his cheek "So Sam I heard you found your imprint"
He nodded"Wow sis you have been awake for what, five minutes? And yet you already know the latest gossip"
She giggled "Can I meet her?"
"Of course, she's been dying to meet you, she's been here every day" the kid couldn't help but smile when he talked about her.
"Well, what are you waiting for bring her in" Sam smiled as he left the room to get his imprint.
"Honey are you sure your okay, the scars don't hurt do they?" Leah asked.
"No mom, sure they sting a bit, but I can take it" I winced.
"Billy could you go find the doctor, I think she needs pain meds"
"Yeah, I am really happy your okay sis" Billy told her.
"Thanks Billy, besides it's not like I was going to ever leave my brother un protected" she teased.
"Ha ha too bad I am going to be the one protecting you from now on"
She scoffed "Billy please I don't need another bodyguard"
He chuckled "Sure sure" before he left to find Carlisle.
A couple minutes later Sam entered the room with Ness, Susie's jaw dropped wide open as she took a good look at his brother's imprint.
Sam closed her mouth "Susie if you leave your mouth wide open like that, flies will get in" he teased.
"Oh my god Sam, she's gorgeous"
Nessie blushed, Sam wrapped his arm around her waist "I know, Susie meet my Renesmee, Ness meet my annoying but lovely sister Susan" Susie stuck her tongue out at him.
"It is a pleasure to meet you Susan; I hope you're feeling better"
"Call me Susie, and it's a pleasure to meet my future sister, and yeah I feel just fine"
Nessie's cheek looked they were about to explode, Sam kissed her on the cheek and it seemed to relax her, right then Dr. Cullen walked in, in all his age less glory.
"Hello Susan, I see you finally decided to wake up"
She nodded "Are you experiencing any pain?"
"The scars sting a bit, but nothing too intense"
"Okay well your vitals look good, I will give you some medication for the pain, but you'll make a full recovery, but Susan I must warn you, those scars will never completely fade"
"I figured, they'll look like Aunt Emily's"
"Yes over time, they will heal and resemble hers"
"Thanks Doc"
"It was my pleasure to treat you" he told her as he headed out the door "Nessie, I shall see you at home"
"Yes grandpa"
"He's your grandfather?!" Susie and Billy exclaimed.
"I have to get Ness home, I will explain to you guys some other time, see you later sis" Sam told her as he kissed her on the head.
"It was nice to meet you Susie, I am sure we will be great friends"
"Like wise Nessie"
"Well we'll leave you to alone, too talk" Leah announced as she dragged Jake and Billy out of the room.
"Finally I thought they were never going to leave" Susie told me as she played with my hair.
"Susie we need to talk"
"What's wrong Embry?"
"Susie, I don't think we should see each other anymore"
"Embry, what are you talking about?!"
"Susie, I can't risk you getting hurt again, I just can't"
"Embry, please I am begging you don't leave me, I can't live without you, I love you" she was crying, I wanted to comfort her and tell her that everything would be alright but I knew that I had too bee strong, I had to keep her safe, even if that meant that I had to leave the sole reason of my existence.
"Susie, I will always love you, but I have to protect you and by staying with you I am only putting you in danger, please understand"
Susie was sobbing, the pain medication was kicking in, she would lose conscious soon, "Embry please promise me you'll be here when I wake up"
"I am so sorry Susie, I love you"
"Embry, plea-" was all she was able to say before she drifted into unconsciousness, I couldn't hide the pain anymore, I was leaving her, I was abandoning the woman I loved, I knew that I couldn't live without her, but I was going to try for her own sake.
I kissed her one last time before walking out of the hospital without a backwards glance, the steel cables were pulling me back to her, I fought the pain in my chest as I drove off, leaving my soul behind.
Did you like it??? Reviews…don't kill me… Embry leaving is crucial to the plot…next chapter will be for all you Sam- Ness lovers I know you have been feeling a bit neglected…ha ha until then :)
