BPOV

Sam had just ran off down the beach along with Jared I thought about what he has just told me. He imprinted on me I was who he was meant to be with, but what about Edward? What about him he is gone an never coming back. I just realised I just thought his name without the hurt feeling in my chest. It was true he was gone he didn't love me he told me so himself. Maybe I should give Sam a chance I felt the pull I had to him I thought about leaving him an it hurt.

I was waiting for Sam to come back when I looked into a pair of red eyes. I looked up only to find Laurent, I froze for about a minute trying to find my voice.

"Laurent is that you?" of course it was he looked the Same as the last time I seen him. I thought he went to live with Tanya and her family.

"hello Bella long time since I have seen you I went to the Cullen's home and they had gone. I though you would of gone with them" he sounded shocked but I was more shocked that the mention of the Cullen's got me angry and not hurt. "Yes they have gone an I stayed hear but they visit a lot I will have to tell them you said hello next time they come to town" I tried to lie the best I could but the look on his face told me he did not believe me.

"Bella I came to warn youVictoria is after you. A mate for a mate she asked me to help find you but I told you last time I would not hurt you. I'm living with Tanya now, I like it there but the diet is kinda hard I slipped up a few times but im trying." To say I was shocked was a understatement , I was glad he would not hurt me.

Suddenly he turned around to the cliffs an there stood the pack looking down at us they turned an ran back to me. Laurent just told me to be careful an ran away I started to feel dizzy ,would Victoria ever leave me alone? Edward was not with me any more he had gone I was not his mate.

Thinking about Edward all I could do was hate him. Hate him for leaving me to die, hate him for leaving me unprotected. All the love I felt was gone an it was replaced with hate I still loved Emmett my bear of a brother and my adopted parents. I never blamed jasper for anything that happened on my birthday it was not his fault he had his blood lust an 5 other vampires. But Alice my 'best' friend if she cared she would not of gone I felt nothing for her as well.

Looking back I saw Sam and the pack running to me. I did the first thing I could think of I ran to Sam and jumped into his arms, I felt safe in his arms he would protect me.

"Bella who was that? Did he hurt you?" the worry in his voice was strong but I could also see the smile on his face I couldn't help but smile as well.

"no he didn't hurt me he came to warn me she's come back for me"

"Bella who has come back for you?" he looked straight in my eyes I knew I had to tell him everything now.

"Victoria a vampire who wants to kill me" a growl went all around the pack I knew they would not be happy about this.

We sat on the beach I sat on Sam's lap with his arms round my waist, I told them everything from the time I moved to forks to meeting the Cullen's I told them how I figured out they were vampires Jake just laughed. I told them about the baseball game and the three vampires and me running to phoenix with jasper and Alice then running off to save my mum or so I thought I was . I was rubbing the bite mark when Sam took my hand and had a look at it, he started to get angry when I told him about James and when he bit me.

"how are you not a leach then?" Paul asked. "Edward sucked the venom out he didn't want me to change im glad about it now" looking up at Sam, he looked down at me with love in his eyes .

"So that is what happened when you was in phoenix when you ' fell through a window '" Jake said upset I didn't tell him the truth. I just nodded.

"so this Victoria is the red head leach that has been trying to find a girl who just happens to be you?" Sam asked I just nodded again glad I had someone to tell. They told me they would patrol round my house at night and asked if I could spend as much time in la push as possible.

After that Jake, jared and Paul all left leaving me and Sam on the beach. " we could give this imprint thing a try, take it slow I don't want to be hurt again" I said looking down at the sand, Sam's hand went under my chin making me look into his eyes

"Bella im not going to hurt you like that leach did im not going to leave you. Your my sole mate and we can go as slow as you like."

I smiled and did the only thing I could think of . I kissed him, no thoughts of Edward were in my head, the only thoughts were Sam and his lips attacking mine. I was happy but for how long I don't now.
