Chapter 9

OK this was awkward.

" What? Its a question" he asked innocently

Did he expected me to answer. This is weird, my ex-boyfriend, who I have known practically my entire life, who I feel in love with when I was 15, he who was my first everything, who I thought I would spend the rest of our lives together, was asking me who was my soul mate?

" You know I should kick your ass" I said glaring him my most evil look

" What? Why?" he asked confused

" Because you did the stupid alpha order and made me tell you" I said, punching his arm as hard as I could

" Ouch! Leah! Dam you hit hard" he said rubbing his shoulder

" Dam right" he knew I could hold my own

" Am sorry for doing that, but you missed the meeting, and I tried to find you but I couldn't, I got worried so I send all the guys to find you and they couldn't find you, I thought I was going to have to put "Idiot lost" posters around town" he said trying to joke, but I could also hear the worry behind

" Hey am not an Idiot" I said

" I know" he said

" So why was the meeting so important?"

" Last night during patrol I saw the red head leech with 3 or 4 more leeches" I don't know what was more hard to believe, if the leech wanted Bella dead so bad that she would bring more leeches for help, or that it had only been this morning that I Imprinted on Charlie, that Charlie was at the store, that Sam apologize, that I accepted his apology, and now we were sitting on the beach.

"What does that mean?" I asked

" We are going to have to patrol more, Bella will definitely have to sped more times in the rez" Wait what about Charlie? Will he be safe? What if the leech tried to find Bella, but found Charlie. Would she kill him? I would kill her and make her pay if she even touched one of his curly hairs on his head.

I growl

" Wow there Leah! No need to go all canine" he chucked " I know you don't like Bella, but we have to protect her" he said

" What? No! I didn't growl because Bella will be spending time in the rez"

" Yeah sure because you haven't made it clear that you hate her" OK to anyone it would seem like I hate her but I don't

" I don't hate her, I just don't agree with her choices, I mean vampires suck blood they are monsters and her knowing that she still choose to be with them, and when he left she.. well I have seen her in Jacob's mind and she looked like a zombie, she was there but not living life"

" Leah, some people would consider us monsters too, turning into a big wolf is not exactly normal"

I felt like I couldn't breath, he was right we were not normal, would Charlie want me? Would he understand that I was not a monster? Would he see passed the wolf thing?

" Leah are you OK?" he asked concern

" I don't know" I whispered

" We are not monsters, you know that right, we phase to protect our people from monsters like those leeches, we are not monsters" he said, he really believed that, and I know deep down I had always believed that

We were in silence for a few minutes

" Your wrong you know" he said

" Huh?" What was he talking about?

" Your not broken"

" Oh"

" Earlier you said I broke you, but I didn't break you, I know I hurt you, but not break you"

" Sam-"

"I didn't break you because you are not broken. If you were broken you wouldn't get up every morning, you wouldn't smile when your mom hugs you, you wouldn't want to protect the people in the rez, you are handling the wolf thing your own way, you are hurt and you might feel like your broken, but you are not. You are just in a hole right now but you are digging your way out, and I can see it"

I threw my self at him hugging him

" Thank you, thank you, thank you" I said. He just laughed
