Leah's POV

I kept a hold on Claire's little hand as we made our way through the woods to Emily's house. Claire was skipping and humming a song that I really can't place. I suppose it must be one of the silly tunes Quil likes to teach her. As we walk I notice the path clearer than what it usually is, it's like the trees have been pushed back. Then I notice it. The trees have actually been pushed back, and over, for that matter. Chance.

It can't be a coincidence, however, I honestly think it would be a lot better for him to tear down some trees instead of people. Wolf people for that matter. I swear he needs to take a total chill pill, I mean I honestly can't see one of the guys actually liking me or even if they did acting on it. They all know the strength of the imprint. Chance and I are imprinted to each other, how much more does he need to feel secure in this relationship?

I heard a lot of sound as I made my way towards the little cozy house Emily and Sam lived in. Why would Sam want to give this all up for me? I mean I know I'm worth something, don't get me wrong, but Emily is too. Emily is compassionate, loving, sweet, docile, and warm. Why would he ever try to turn his back on that? It's madness. Sam has such a good thing going for him right now and he just wants to swoop in and cause drama and pain for all parties involved. Seriously? Not acceptable.

We finally enter the yard of the house and I can already hear shouting and something that resembled snarling. Oh jeez. I drop little Claire's hand.

"You need to stay out here while Aunt Leah goes and sees what is going on. ok sweetie?" I say gently. Her big brown eyes seem so confused and sad but she nods all the same. I lean down and kiss her forehead for reassurance before throwing open the door and running in.

"Stay the fuck away from her Sam! She's doesn't belong to you!" I hear Chance roar.

My nerves start kicking in now. My senses heighten at the scary image in front of me.

"You're not good enough for her anyways! Why don't you do her a favor and hit the road now before you break her heart!" Sam yelled back.

I walked into the living room where Chance and Sam are circling each other in a predatory way. Emily is crouching in a corner of the kitchen sobbing furiously. I rush over to her and kneel down. Her long flowy ebony hair is disheveled and her eyes closed tightly. Her body is shaking with fear.

"Emily I am so sorry, I don't know what's going on. Can you fill me in a bit?" I ask her taking her hand into mine. She nods before beginning.

"Chance burst through the door while Sam and I were watching t.v. on the couch. He started yelling about Sam trying to take you from him and that he was done with Sam's crap. Sam started yelling back saying that Chance was being an idiot, and that he didn't deserve you and that he was a wreck. Then here they are. I snuck into the kitchen trying to avoid the clash." She said frightened.

I immediately pounce back up and start walking over to the idiots that are now almost ready to phase and tear the living room, the house in general, and possibly others into shreds.

"Stop it! What is wrong with you two?," I yelled as I neared the two men getting ready for the battle of a life time.

Neither of them even flinched as they kept nearing each other waiting for the right moment to pounce for the best damage.

"I said knock it off!" I yell again and start to step into the midst of it. I can't take this craziness, it's just so illogical. I mean even if Chance and I weren't imprinted, there's no way in hell I'd be a home wrecker. Neither of them notice me yet, there anger can be felt in waves flowing around them.

"Please, Chance, just leave it alone," I say and try to reach out and touch his arm to make sure he sees I'm there. The second I touch his arm they both phase instantly. I'm so caught of guard that I feel myself get thrown back and then everything goes black around me…

Sam's POV

I'm sitting on the couch with Emily cuddling into my side. Her hand is running up and down my arm as we watch one of favorite shows. The silence is so peaceful and reminds me how amazing my life is right now. I look down and kiss her hair. She mumbles a light sigh. In a matter of seconds the door bursts open and I see a fuming Chance standing there, his face is red and his hands a torn up a bit.

"What the hell? Chance what're you doing here?" I say upset at his disruption.

"Shut the hell up Sam! You know why I'm here! You think I'm gonna stand by and watch you try to take Leah from me! Are you crazy!" He says and begins to walk closer.

"Chan-" Emily begins, but is soon cut off by Chance.

"And you! How can you stand to see him still pining after Leah when you give your everything to him!" Chance yells.

I immediately stand up and walk towards him.

"Don't you ever try to fill her thoughts with your bullshit crazy! I love her more than life, and I just care about Leah, I don't want her like that!" I thunder back feeling my control slip a bit.

"Oh really! Then why have you been telling her to leave me? Huh! Answer that Oh-Mighty-Alpha!" Chance says and comes closer.

"Because I know that you're not good enough for her! She's everything that you can never be! Hell I wouldn't be surprised if you faked the imprint to tie her down before she realizes that you're a douche bag!" I let my temper flare back.

"Don't you ever talk about our love for each other like that again! What Leah and I have is special, it's other worldly! And you know what! Your just jealous that you can never be that for her!" He bellows at me.

"I have Emily, but I'm twice the man you'll ever be and if I wanted to take her I sure as hell could!" I yell in spite.

"Stay the fuck away from her Sam! She's doesn't belong to you!" Chance roars. I know it's going to happen. Soon we'll have to fight.

"You're not good enough for her anyways! Why don't you do her a favor and hit the road now before you break her heart!" I yell back.

By then we're just circling each other, watching each other's movements. We're ready to phase at any moment.

I see Leah run up to us, I can't hear what she's saying though. I can only hear my own heartbeat. I see her go to touch Chance's arm, and my alarm goes off. The human side wants to yell out and warn her not too, but my animal is to strong and is ready to fight. He phases and I can see her horror as his paw slices down her back. As he lands the house shakes and she's sent flying back into the wall. I immediately don't attack. My human side is back in control.

*PHASE BACK NOW CHANCE!* My mind says to his.

But it's too late he turns and realizes what he's done and immediately takes off and out of the house breaking through, and taking the door with him.

I phase back and slip some shorts on, making sure Emily tends to her. I call Dr. Fang immediately. Emily is completely hysterical by now. I just hope that Leah pulls through. In the distance I hear mournful howls in the distance.
