I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

There was little movement from the trees, little sound and little to make the couple aware that someone was watching them, stalking them. There wouldn't be much sound or movement, it would make sure that there was complete and total silence.

"It's such a nice night out." The woman was leaning into the man and there was silence between the two. They were still being stalked and they had no idea.

"It is." The man's arm wrapped around the woman's shoulders, pulling her in closer.

"A beautiful night to be together." They kept talking between themselves, the only other noise was the wind as it moved through the trees. There was no other sounds, no other people in this secluded area, and it was good for them.

"I'll be right back." The man suddenly stood and left the woman's side, walking away from her and towards a sheltered area. The woman nodded and sat on the grass, taking her time looking around, she had no feeling of being watched or being in danger. But yes, she was.

"Jason?" The woman's voice cut through the silence, and she stood, after hearing rustling from the trees to her right and a few twigs snapping. She knew that they shouldn't be out here, and yet, here they were.

"Jas! Come on!" The sounds moved around her, and they continued until they stopped. There was nothing but silence again.

"Jason this is not funny!" The woman stood, close to the edge, and rubbed her hands up and down over her arms. It was not a cold night, but looking at the woman, it looked like she was freezing.

"Jason!" The woman cried out, longing for her male companion if only to make her feel secure and warm.

The woman, who had decided to give up and make her way back to the vehicle they came in, turned on her heel and came face to face with a tall, pale man staring at her. She let out a loud scream and took a few steps back. She wasn't sure what to be afraid of more, that the man had come out of nowhere with no sound movement, or the man was staring at her, with red eyes and blood dripping down his face.

"Hello there." The woman screamed again and the man, whoever he was, smirked. He reached out and with a grasp, picked the woman up by her throat.

"Scream again and I will break your pathetic body bone by bone." The woman's eyes widened and she clamped her mouth shut. She didn't utter a word. She just stared at the man.

"That's a good girl. Now here's what we're going to do. You're going to keep your mouth shut and I am going to leave here with you. You scream once, even a peep, and you're dead. You understand me?" The woman barely managed a nod, before the man took off, with her in his grasp.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

I had heard the terrible news on the radio. I had been halfway to the grocery store when it came on, and I had to actually stop to listen to the rest. It had shaken me and left me feeling sick to my stomach, even though I had no idea who the woman or the man was.

A man was found dead in the woods, his blood drained and his heart ripped out. His heart was laying on the ground next to him. He was with a woman who was now declared missing and there was no trace of her, there was no blood where she went missing from. No trace of any evidence, she had just…vanished.

"Oh my God…" I was speechless from what happened, and I had stopped my drive to the grocery store and went right back to the house. I had just parked the vehicle and stepped out when I felt a hand brush against mine. I jumped and screamed, flinging my hands towards the person behind me, unaware that the person was Seth.

"Ami, it's okay." I turned and saw him standing there, jeans and a plaid shirt. His hair was spiked and he looked so much more attractive than I remembered, but instead of having his happy normal grin on his face, he had a solemn look.

"Sorry. I just heard…" I frowned and looked away from Seth. The woman was 22 and she was just engaged to the man they had found. She was now missing and her fiancé was dead. It really took a toll on me and made me feel sick.

"I know." Seth frowned and sighed, waiting a moment before he spoke again.

"I can't believe that happened. What man would do that to another human being?" Seth snorted and opened his mouth to speak, his eyes held such a distaste, such a hatred, I was taken aback by it. What could Seth hate that made him look so angry?

"Human? There is nothing human about what did that. Nothing." Seth spat and I looked away and back at him. His eyes were darkening, he was getting angrier and as he got more upset, he started to shake.

"What do you mean?" I was curious but judging by Seth's behaviour, my question would go unanswered.

"I came to tell you that I really think you should try and stay in as much as you can. Especially at night. It's dangerous for you to go out." Seth finally looked at me and his eyes were guarded. It was the first time since I had met him, that I couldn't easily read his emotions on his face or in his eyes.

"You avoided my question. Seth do you know what's going on?" He looked at me, his guarded eyes softening and the warmth was back in them.

"I…can't. Ami just trust me and listen to me. Do not be out late and do not go out alone if you do have to go out at night." I opened my mouth to speak and closed it again. There was a howl in the distance, followed by another and another.

Seth looked over his shoulder and stared at the woods for a minute before he turned back. His eyes were guarded again and he took a step back.

"I have to go. I'll call you tonight. I promise." I nodded and watched him leave. I watched him walk down the driveway and towards the woods until he was out of sight.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

There was blood, blood everywhere and it stunk. The stench of it invaded my noise and I snorted and shook my head. My pack brothers stood beside me and we all looked over the place, the stench of leech unbearable.

After all these years of having peace, of having no major vampire attacks. The Cullen's were the only vampires in this area and that is how we liked it. But not anymore.

"Why didn't the leech drain the woman? Why did he take her?" The question Sam asked was on all of our minds, as well as the safety as our loved ones.

My mom and Ami all came to mind and I felt a surge of determination to keep them safe. I was going to keep them safe no matter what happened. I would protect Ami with every fibre of my being and even though I gave her a warning to not go out at night, I feared that it wouldn't be enough.

"Why now? Why is there an attack now?" None of us knew, but it came as a shock to us. After having no signs of any leeches for so longs, it was a blow to have an attack. We had been patrolling less and less because we thought it was safe.

"Patrols will be in full effect. We will be patrolling like we used to. We have a lot of people to protect and it is our duty. We need to find this leech and we need to destroy it." We all agreed, it would be our mission to find and destroy this leech.

"Seth, we need to talk." My pack brothers were leaving when Sam had pulled me aside. Some were going to patrol and some were going to sleep. They would need the sleep especially since we were now on high alert.

"I know that you warned Amelia about the dangers of going out at night but you need to tell her about us. She needs to know. She cannot remain ignorant to the danger she is in. You must tell her that you're a werewolf and that vampires exist. There will be a bonfire next week, bring her and we'll tell her about the legends. Then you have to tell her. That is an order."
