Back to grace's point of view. I know it's boring but the first couple chapters always are pleas bare with me and keep reading. It gets better I promise.

GPoV (Graces point of view)

I didn't mind Embry taking me away from Jake I still wasn't sure how I felt about him.

I mean yeah I thought he was good looking but that was also the thing I hated about him. He was probably just a player and since I was the new girl he was trying to get with me…Wait what was I thinking, what made me think he was trying to get with me first he stared and didn't say anything and when he did he was rude. Well he said he liked me but that all goes back to him being a player. Well I wont fall for that again. My thought we interrupted when Embry pulled me up to a group of girls.

"You must be Grace," said one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen even with the horrible scars marking her face.

"Umm yeah…I'm sorry I don't know your name." I said slightly intimated by her beauty. Next to her was another girl not quiet so beautiful but gorgeous all the same. She smiled her perfect white teeth and seemed pretty genuine.

"She's Emily, she's dating Sam and I'm Kim I'm dating Quil,"

"Ok well I'll try to remember all that, but I'm not very good with names" I could feel myself blush but I couldn't control my cheeks so I just smiled shyly.

"So what grade are you in?" asked Kim

"Oh I'm starting my junior year."

"Oh awesome me too the boys are a year older but you might still have a class with them plus we can hang at lunch," Kim said excitedly. Emily elbowed her and she added "of course if you want. Sorry I get ahead of myself" she laughed

"Oh no that would be cool. I'll be happy to no a few people going into school" I smiled I really liked her. I thought we could possibly be good friends.

I talked with them for a while. When food was called I laughed at how all the guys rushed to get what seemed a mountain of food. We hung out while we ate and I realized I really like both these girls and was happy to maybe have some girls to talk. We talked till; who I was told was Quil Sr., got up and started talking about these old legends.

The legends fascinated me. They were about people turning into werewolves when they need to defeat what the called the cold ones. Vampires. I shivered at the thought of any of that. They said they had horrible tempers and could erupt into one just about anywhere. That thought scared me but then I realized they were just old legends I smiled at how scared I got. Even with scary movies I had nightmares and treated them as if they would happen to me. I started listening again just as he started talking about something called "imprinting". It was something about finding your soul mate or whatever. I didn't really listening not being one for romance. Plus it wasn't real I didn't want to listen to something about fake love which is all the probably was. I mean everyone one in my family got divorced. My mom, all my aunts and uncles. The only ones who had it were my grandparents and my grandpa lost my grandma. It had hurt him so much that I couldn't even be around him with out being sad. Seeing my grandpa liked that just made me realize it wasn't worth it to love when you know someday your going to loose it anyway.

That's one of the reasons I didn't have many friends. I couldn't love. We'll I could but I was scared to. Even though I loved my mom and aunt I hated it. I wish with all my heart that I didn't because when they die I knew how much it was going to hurt. I mean I lost my grandma who was also my best friend and it hurt too much. I didn't call myself weak for not being able to take the pain. I just told myself that it wouldn't happen again because I was going to protect myself. I got lost in thoughts about how loved sucked.

I finally got pulled out of my thoughts when a warm hand touched my shoulder. I looked up to find Embry smiling at me.

"So whatcha think?"

"About?"

"The legends" he smiled

"Ohh well they were really interesting. Quil Sr. can tell stories really good" I said back.

"Yeah what about the imprinting?"

"Ohh that I didn't really listen to it." I answered honestly

"Why not?" he asked shocked

"Umm well I'm not really a believer of soul mates and all that jazz." I said with a shrug

Embry laughed at what I said. I couldn't figure it out so I just said

"Hey I'm gonna go walk by the beach. OK?"

"Sure thing" Embry said walking away.

JpoV (jakes point of view)

I watched Embry laugh at something grace said and I couldn't control my shaking or jealous any longer I sprinted to the woods and just as I hit the trees I exploded without taking my clothes off. IM GONNA KILL EMRBY I thought. I ran around a little before I felt better I peeked through the trees to see that grace, MY grace was walking all by herself a long enough distance away that any bloodsucker that we didn't detect could come and kill her. I had no other clothes so I howled as loud as I could. Sam looked over to where I was hidden and jogged over.

"What's up Jake?" he asked

"I picked up my shredded clothes and whined then I pointed my nose to were grace was still alone walking further away.

"Ohh...hold on" he said jogging away. I knew Emily always had extra clothes so I figured that's where he was going. I watched Grace till Sam brought me more clothes I got them on as fast as possible and sprinted to grace. I stopped when I heard her singing something quietly. I walked as secretively as I could somewhat in a trance by her voice. She was amazing. I couldn't figure out what song she was singing but it sounded like a lullaby, almost.

I stepped on a twig and she swung around and I mentally cursed myself.

"Hey" I mumbled

"Where you following me?" she asked

"Well I was coming to get you then I heard you singing and I don't know. You have a beautiful voice" I tried getting on her good side.

"Thanks" she blushed

"What are you doing all the way out here?"

"Umm walking"

"It's not safe out here you know."

"What is some vampire going to come eat me…or is a werewolf going to get mad at the way I look and kill me?" she asked sarcastically

"Well the vampire thing is right but I don't think any werewolf would mind what you look like."

She started heading back to the camp laughing, "Jake shut up. We all know none of that stuff is real"

"Grace that's what why I brought you here so I could tell you this."

"What? You think I'm actually gonna believe that shit?"

"Yeah. It's real. This is our pack." I said gesturing to everyone around us.

"Shut up. Just because I'm new doesn't mean I'm a totally idiot. What is this the joke you play on all the newbies? Were werewolves and vampires are real."

"No sweetheart, this is are life."

"Then why the hell are you telling me if it's a "scared legend" she quoted the last part like it wasn't real

"Well I wasn't gonna tell you this part just yet. But imprinted on you" I said

GPoV(Grace's point of view)

God this guy was a totally jerk. He wouldn't stop saying he was a werewolf. Did he honestly think I would believe? And now he wants me believe he imprinted on me.

"You what? You're such a jerk. What do you think I'm gonna believe that and jump into bed with you? I don't think so. You know what I don't need this. I'm leaving"

"Grace wait I'm not trying anything. This isn't a joke," he pleaded

"Give it up Jake. It's not funny. Well it probably is to all your little friends. But I'm not going to sit around why you play your little jokes. Ok. Find someone else," I said I started walking away. I realized I hadn't driven but I'm wasn't gonna ask any of them for help so I just started walking. I heard footsteps behind me and turned around to face Jake.

"I don't ever want to talk to you again so don't you dare follow me. Got it?"

"Grace wa…" I cut him off. I have a horrible temper so I got mad really easily even over small things and this just really pissed me off.

"JAKE …STOP…I swear to god if you say it one more time I'll deck you in the face. OK!" I yelled

"But Grace…"

"OH MY GOD JAKE SHUT THE HELL UP!" I screamed "it's over it's not funny now stop" another thing if I get mad enough I usually start to cry. Especially if you keep it going because I get frustrated easily. I could hide my sadness easier then most people. I could hide happiness when necessary, but get me mad and I cant hide it for anything in the world.

I felt the tears start to build up in my eyes and cursed my self for being so weak.

"Grace honest to god I'm not lying" he said grabbing me "please don't cry"

"Let go of me Jake," I said with ice in my voice "NOW!" I yelled. He didn't budge so I started pounding on his chest. He finally let go and I ran. I ran as fast I could. I didn't know where I was going and I didn't care. I may have overreacted just a bit but he just kept going and like I said before drama is my forte. I finally stopped and realized I was in the woods. Deep in the woods. It was dark and extremely scary.

"Great now I don't know where the hell I am." I muttered

I heard twigs breaking behind me. I swung around and started to say, "go away" but I froze when I realized it wasn't Jake but man about 20 or something. He was beautiful not like a Jake. But like he was sculpted from marble. He was tall probably 6 foot and his features where breathtaking. I couldn't muster up a sentence so I just sat there gawking at this beautiful man.

"Hello princess" he finally spoke in his velvet voice. "What's a pretty thing like you doing out here all by yourself. It's dangerous you know."

"Yeah I've heard" I said back He came closer and I could see his blood red eyes clearly. I had never seen ayes that color before and couldn't stop staring.

"Interesting aren't they?" he asked obviously noticing my staring.

"Umm yeah contacts?" I was trying to stall because this man despite his beauty was really giving me the creeps. I felt a sense of urgency to get out of there fast. In the distance I could here what seemed to be a stampede and hoped to god that it wasn't a pack of wild animals.

"No quiet my tasty little morsel." His voice all but purred "my my such an intoxicating cent you have. Like wildflowers and cinnamon. Delicious"

"Ok well I actually have to get back to a bonfire. My friends must be worrying now," I shakily said. I turned away and starting walking but quick as a flash of light the man was standing in front of me

He slowly smiled, almost like a predators smile right before he makes the kill

"But my darling we have only just meet and introductions haven't been made yet" he gripped my arm tightly "allow my to introduce myself first " Tristain, tristain Spade at your service"

As he painfully gripped my arm I started to panic

"Well I really have to go i'm sorry. It was really nice to meet you"

He laughed then. A sickly evil laugh of one who knows he is about to make some squirm for life. "We not done here yet my love. This will just take a second" and with that he pulled me against and just as I saw him raise his teeth, a huge bear like creature attacked him from the side.

Everything happen so fast. One minute I was seeing teeth above me and the next I saw a giant claw scratching down my arm. My screaming and fainting seemed too blurry into one with the oozing blood from my arm.
