Thank you all for the Reviews! They make my day!

Disclaimer: I own nothing; only the quack, Lamar… Stephenie Meyer is the almighty author of Twilight…


I dreamed of Jacob. I watched his eyes stare at me. I looked through and to the pit of his soul. I wanted to be with him forever… I wanted to be with him when two hands struck midnight. Perfectly together, until a minute would pass and they would have to part until the next meeting. The next time their hearts would strike the same time… Time… I had cursed time… And now all I wanted was time and forever with Jacob… And forever I felt was a very long way away…

When I woke up, my wrist was numb and Lamar was gone. My sleepiness disappeared and I was in action. I couldn't let Lamar know I had phased…I stripped out of my shirt and jeans quickly, setting them aside. Then, I let the fire engulf me. My wolf self take form, the skin ripping and the vibrating shaking my core.

Once I was again in control, I thought of Jacob…

Leah!

Jacob…

Leah, where are you?! I let my thoughts replay in my head. I felt the anger course through Jacob. If he wasn't in his wolf form, he would have phased now his anger was so strong… Through all of the mixed feelings I was having, I was glad Jacob was mad that someone had hurt me…

Leah, do you know where you are?

No…I don't… I have to go… I love you…

I love you to… We'll find you… And because I could feel the love he did feel for me, I was able to phase back into my human form…

Redressed and calm, I tried to loosen the chain that was still tightly twisted around my arm. I hadn't been a wolf long; I was too scared. But Lamar had still not returned. I thought of phasing again, letting Jacob see where I was. But, just as I finished the thought, Lamar appeared from out of the forest.

He was in his human form to, blood covering his chest. The smell registered in my head it wasn't animal blood. I thanked my lucky stars for this though. Now the shock and horror on my face could have an excuse.

"What, never seen blood before?" Lamar asked me, smiling mockingly.

"No… I have. Just…Just never human blood…"

"Oh, well, the hunter might have seen you…"

Lamar took a jug from the ground and poured the water from it all over his chest. I grimaced and looked away as the water made the blood streak down his hard body. I tried to think of things to do…To say…I needed to find out as much as I could about Lamar and then I needed to phase… I needed to be strong and try and run away… The only hope I had of ever seen my Jacob again was to risk my life… Great…

"Lamar…Um, are you from around here?" I tried to keep my voice light. Simple curiosity was plastered to my face.

"No… I usually stay in Canada…"

"Oh? Then why are you here?"

"To get you…" To get me? What did I have that he wanted?! He must have read my mind because he answered, "I need a companion..." Oh… So I was pretty and could morph into a wolf just like this poor boy... Pity tug on my heart strings…

"You know Lamar… If you apologize and maybe stop eating hunters, my brothers would accept you into our pack…"

"What, and let someone else rule me?" He scoffed. "No… I am my own leader… I don't take orders from others!"

Lamar was crazy… That was clear… I felt that loneliness probably made him paranoid and needy… I ached to be near Jacob again and know I could never be that alone again… Or at least I hoped I wouldn't…

I WOULDN'T! Even if Jacob could only give me half of his heart I had something… I wanted it; the whole thing… But I couldn't have it all. I had to take what was given to me or I would end up like Lamar… Alone and scary…

I stopped thinking… My puzzle pieces had dried and I could now figure out what it was that I needed to do… I needed to get away… I needed to make this beast feel safe and content and then I needed to sneak away… I needed to run head first into the waiting arms of my half heart love…

Flirt

I snorted at my own thought… I hadn't flirted with anyone since Sam had imprinted on Emily. I knew I could do it; I was still a girl. But, I didn't know if I could with Lamar… He was a whack job… I didn't know what crazy people liked…I snorted again...

"You sound like a guy when you do that," Lamar remarked, head bent to the ground.

"Oh..." Yep, I was never going to be able to sweep this guy off his feet.

Jacob needed to see where I was. I needed to get away from Lamar. I needed the feeling to come back into my fingers!

"Lamar, could you cut me some slack and take this chain off of me?" I bat my eyelashes and smiled sweetly… It worked…

Boys! A bunch of push over's!

Lamar walked up to me and began to remove the chain from my wrist slowly. I had to concentrate. I took in my surroundings, looking up at the sky and trying to find any kind of mountains. There was a small trail, straight ahead, the only path into our little clearing. I thought hard to keep my arm still while I let the fire build; my eyes turning the deep black on the corners.

Lamar finished and then took a step back. Before I phased I heard him mutter, "I'm glad you have decided to stay Leah…"

His voice was so sad! But, the ripping increased and I watched as my clothes fell away in pieces. I let my mind see everything as I dashed away. I was fast; but not fast enough. I knew my pack had seen the clearing and a small part of the path before Lamar was on top of me, tackling me to the ground. I had one thought left before I had to turn all of my attention to the teeth that lunged for my throat… I love you all...

I was small, but I could fight. Lamar lunged and I quickly turned to the left. His body flew past me. I rolled over and was running just as his jaws and sharp teeth clenched down on my hind leg. I howled with pain and fell to the grassy floor once more. I could feel the leg was broken. Lamar attacked again; this time meeting his mark. He bit down hard over my jugular, cutting off all air. I twisted towards him, causing him to let go or he would rip my neck open. Under him, I grabbed his front paw; shutting my mouth over his whole leg. He growled fiercely and bit off my ear. The pain was too much! I kept biting, clawing, ramming… But the air I needed to refuel did not come and the blood from one wound kept getting in my eyes.

Leah! Hold on! We're coming! Seth's voice rang in my ears.

No… Stay away… He'll hurt you to… I didn't want anyone to come…I wanted to die here alone… Alone… How little that word hurt now…

I was cold again…And then there was no light…

Jacob's POV

RUN JACOB RUN! The pack and myself were urging me to hurry. I had to hurry! I had to get to Leah! The pictures she was able to give us before the fighting started was enough…I knew where she was. I ran as fast as I could. The exertion actually made me feel a little out of breath.

Finally, I had made it to the clearing. Leah lay on the ground covered in blood as the white wolf pulled away from her. He smelled me near and turned his coal black eyes to meet mine. This was it. This is what I wanted.

We attacked each other at the same time, colliding in mid-air. We fell to the ground together; a tangle of legs and arms and teeth. I bit and ripped at any skin I came in contact with. I clawed at the monster's face. He let out a little yelp of pain… I hope he hurt more…

My pack attacked then, twelve against one. Even the all mighty Zeus couldn't fight off that many wolves. We bit and tore and shoved. All of our anger pushed us over the edge; making us evil, killing creatures…

And then the white wolf shifted and turned into a man. The skin glowed under the blanket of crimson.

I turned my back, my own shifting taking control. Leah lay in the forest, her human body covered in the same blood as the white man. I sank to my knees near her, picking up her limp body and pulling her close to my chest.

I wiped her long black hair out of her face and cleaned up as much blood as I could. Her limps lay in a complete distortion… One leg bent up underneath her, causing my own leg to ache at the sight. Her throat laid splayed open as though on display. The gory butcher left nothing untouched. Her skin weakly tried to pull itself together, the superpowers of quick healing fading…

The tears didn't surprise me. I let them come down fast, making zigzagged tracks on my dirty face…

"Leah… I'm sorry Leah… Oh Leah…I love you…"

I didn't want to live without her…
