A/N: Okay, I know I've been away for a while, but I do plan to continue on this story. Hopefully I'll have it done by the time I'm done with high school? Wishfully thinking. Because I wanted to put a little more time into this chapter I think I'm going to write it over the span of like... 2 to 3 days. Just an idea, I don't know yet.

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight. And there's a prequel to this if you have any interest in Jacob/Sam's story. Just a thought!

Warning: This story is just flat out NOT appropriate for non-mature readers. Guys, this story includes rape, a large amount of sex, language, and several other things children shouldn't be reading. Now I'm not going to put an age on who should be reading this stuff, because I started at like... so young I don't want to admit it, but if you think FOR ANY REASON that this could offend you PM and ask me if I think it's appropriate for you. Really, I don't take offence, okay? So I'm letting you all decide if you're mature enough to take all this, mostly because I can't do anything about it, so please don't send me hate mail, okay? It's unappreciated. Of course, if you want to give me friendly feedback, I'll totally talk to you about it, but no bashing the story type. Oh- major warning that I didn't mention before: This is SLASH people. That means guy on guy. That means gay. We all good now? Great! :D

POV: ? (Please don't kill me guys... please...) **(IMPORTANT NOTE AT THE END OF THE CHAPTER)**

I stumbled away from the entrance and ducked behind a bush when I saw Leah and Seth coming out of the cave. Once they were out of sight I sta down in the brush with a huff. Fuck, I thought, what do I do now?

Well, I knew what the right thhing to do would be. Talk to Sam or someone else and tell them the truth. But Seth was so young, he didn't deserve to be forced to be with someone the rest of his life, someone he was by instinct, supposed to hate utterly. It was hard enough for me, and I didn't want to put someone so much younger through the same pain that I went through. I decided to keep what I had found out to myself. At least until it was necessary to say something.

Groaning, I pulled myself off the ground and made my way home.

The second stair on the wooden porch squeaked when I heard my imprint coming home from patrol. I pulled the corn soup that I'd been cooking off the stove and grabbed a bowl when he walked in.

"How was your day?" he asked. I jumped slightly when I turned to find him right in front of me.

"O-o-oh, it was..." Fuck, I thought, I've always been a terrible liar. "Normal.. you know... like... um... soup?" I shoved the bowl at him.

"It's supposed to be really good... Emily gave me the recipe?" He took the bowl. Ha! Emily's food conquers all. While I was busy feeling incredibly satisfied with myself, he finished the soup, and that unfortunetly opened me up for another round of questions.

"What happened today?"

I glanced down at my fingernails. "Nothing, it was pretty boring, actually," I replied nonchalantly.

The man that had imprinted on me stood up. I assumed he was getting more food, so I didn't bother turning around to watch him. Surprisingly, I felt his lips on my neck. With a gasp, I jerked forward slightly.

"P-Paul!" I gasped. "Don't d-do that..." I gulped when he lips started to travel down.

"Oh?" Paul replied. "You don't want me to do... this?" My nails dug into the palms of my hands when he sunk his teeth firmly into my collarbone.

"Damn it! Don't do that!" I tried to push him away and not let him see how aroused I was simultaeously.

"Hmmmm, I'll do what I want to you, Edward," he replied and scooped me up and carried me to the bedroom.

POV: Jacob

Muttering irritatedly, I pushed open the door to Leah's house. "Lee, have you seen-" Seth looked up surprised.

"Jake! Hi!" Seth smiled, and for a second I saw the face of the boy he had been a year or so ago. And then it disappeared, replaced with the serious, calm one that he often wore nowadays.

"Hey Seth, I wanted to talk to you," I glanced at Leah," alone."

Leah nodded and walked out of the room towards the bathroom. Seth gestured towards the door, and I stepped outside. Shortly after he pushed the wire-mesh screen open as well, and joined me on the porch.

The second we were out of ear shot of Leah I snarled, "what are you thinking! Does Sam know that you and Cauis are mates?! What will happen if he finds out! He'll let Cauis have you, Seth! You have to know that! Sam isn't going to stand in the way of someone claiming their mate! I'm-"

"Jake, calm down!" Seth looked at me worriedly. "You're going to over-exert yourself."

"NO I FUCKING WON'T!" I had had enough of people babying me because I was pregnant. "I'm worried about you, Seth! What if Sam finds out! Or does he already know? No... I don't think so, he would have said something..." I realized I was mostly talking to myself and stopped.

Seth looked at the ground. "You won't tell him right?"

I glanced up horrified. "Oh course not!" Then a thought hit me. "Hey, where's Embry? I was looking for him, but he wasn't at his house...Seth?"

"He... I don't think Sam found him."

"WHAT?" I shrieked. "You MUST be joking." Seth shook his head. "I think I'm going to be sick..." Seth grabbed my arm and helped me bend over to make breathing easier. Once I calmed down I sat down on the ground, ignoring the fact that water from the most reent rain storm was soaking through my pants. Seth sat down next to me. I heard a quiet noise and looked over at him. He was crying.

I tried to think of something to say to make it better, but I realized that there was nothing to say. Embry, his best friend, was most likely gone forever. So I just sat there. And let him cry. Because there was nothing left to do.

A/N: So I was going to have the next part (which is Embry's POV) be in this too, but that seemed like a good place to end the chapter. Sorry for all the angst by the way, I didn't intend for it to be the depressing.

IMPORTANT NOTE: As you may know, this is a sequel to the fic "Mating Age." In that book the couple of Paul/Edward is created, developed, and etc. I wanted you all to know that I wasn't making this coupling up in regards to this 'series' I suppose we could loosely call it. On another note, I don't plan to eleborate on them too much, but if you would like me to, let me know!

Finally, please, comment, favorite, follow, etc. I LOVE ALL YOU GUYS, and I'm really sorry that I haven't been writing much. Now, NO PROMISES, but I'm writing the next chapter, which may be short, right now, so maybe you'll have it soon? I'm not sure. But I thought I'd let you know that it's Embry's POV, and all hope is not lost for him! :D

Love and hugs.
