To some of you—I had read a lot of you guys' reviews and a lot of you had explained that Jacob cannot turn into a vampire if he's a werewolf. I will explain this. :D Because I love supernatural weird stuff.
I will always probe deeper into Jacob and Edward's love so we know about Jacob's feelings as one of you had said about the "you're just a replacement for Bella" thing. :)
Chapter 10
Look Outside
Edward's POV
I didn't understand.
Jacob was a werewolf. Not a vampire. Out of everything but after Alice had told me about her vision, I saw it a clear possibility and talking with Carlisle, he had told me to get a blood sample which I inevitably had because out of everything, Jacob's a heavy sleeper and when I had asked Carlisle for results, he had explained it all and my mind was just spinning with confusion
"Do you remember when you sucked out the venom from Jacob's body during his shift when the vampires had returned?" Carlisle had asked me and the only thing I could've done was nod my head. "You see, they are not ordinary vampires, the 'venom' they had excreted in Jacob's body wasn't poison to Jacob's body and Jacob had absorbed it—almost as if they had wanted Jacob to turn into a vampire for some odd reason. I had realized that their target was Jacob and specifically Jacob."
I didn't understand anything as he continued to talk and all I could do was try and digest the information.
"For these vampires are called The Innovative. They are a special group of vampires who drink blood, but are different in so many ways, like they can go out in the sunlight like humans. They sleep in the daylight and go out in the night. Their babies are born humans—not really humans, shape shifters, and you know that shape shifters can take their body in any form—for The Innovative, they choose to keep their children planted in ordinary humans, live an ordinary life until they find it's time for one to go. That's exactly what Jacob is. An Innovative."
My head was spinning so quickly that nothing he said made any sense and I could taste his amusement in my mouth as he continued to explain further. "Jacob had been an experiment for many of their kind. They had paired up an Innovative woman with a man who they assumed to be human. After Jacob had begun his transformation, they knew that something had been wrong. A shape shifter of their kind had control of their power and they had always transformed into vampires and stuck that way and they figured out Billy's history. Jacob was supposed to shape shift into a vampire, not a werewolf but unlike most werewolves, he has that repressed vampire gene in him."
I tried to digest it now that it was slightly less confusing and as I nodded my head, Carlisle smiled at his success before he continued.
"When they had attacked Jacob that night, they had intended to return him into who he really is. A vampire of their kind, one that traveled, drinking only from their pack—every week, a vampire of their kind is sacrificed to kill and drink blood. The blood supply lasts for a week before they have to kill another. Those vampire women have the ability to make children and they reproduce many children at once and the weakest one is scarified. They had always been a legend, and I never really thought that they were real until I analyzed Jacob's blood."
"Um…Carlisle, if Jacob's an Innovative, why is he so alike to the werewolves? The Phasing? The transformation? The thought exchange?" I asked. If Jacob's true destiny was to be with a vampire, then it didn't make any sense that Jacob was a good werewolf.
"You see. When a male and a female mate, the man's genes are more dominant most of the time. Same thing here. The werewolf gene was still in him, and that was what they wanted to do, illuminate the werewolf gene—that's why they attacked at first place. And to make him into a vampire—that's why they attacked him a second time. For Innovatives, the transformations are slow. Once you illuminate the gene, you have to wait until the blood is illuminated as well. When there are no signs of werewolf genes or blood, just a fresh new human—and then, the vampire transformation begins, the vampire genes take act. They have an "on" and "off" switch."
I digested this all and it suddenly made sense but the question still remained about the vampires themselves. "What makes them different from us? How are they different?"
"Same way as vampires are different from werewolves, genes. Their genes are structured and coded differently." Carlisle responded.
"Why don't they show themselves until now? What makes Jacob so special that they expose their existence for?" I asked.
"I'm afraid that I do not know how to answer that question," Carlisle said. "I may know about the Innovative but not much about Jacob's mother's history yet to link his connection to them."
I nodded my head. "Once you figure it out, let me know…"
And now, I was thinking of Jacob. And how much he loved me. He had a straight forward affection for me. But why? "How do the Innovative mate?" that question had caught Carlisle off guard as he let out a laugh.
"A true Innovative never really mates. He falls in sickness. For the Innovative, falling in love is a sickness. They don't. Whenever an Innovative acts like he or she wants love, he'd say anything just to get you into bed only because they need to produce children. They need to feed themselves after all."
That explained everything.
It explained why Jacob was so very attached to me, was so very in love with my all of a sudden, why he had told me that Bella was a replacement for me but in it all, I felt as if he had stabbed my heart as well. "Can male Innovatives want this?"
"Jacob's attached to you?" Carlisle blinked, though he knew it the entire time. He only wanted to be sweet towards me as I nodded my head to answer his already answered question. "Jacob's attached to you for children. Some Innovative males have that ability—to become pregnant with a child whether he knows it or not. It's the hormones in his blood that make him do the things he does. It's to survive into the world."
I felt my blood boil.
Was that was I to him? Even if he didn't know it, Jacob was truly a mongrel. Had he really wanted me only to make our child then kill and slay it for its blood?
Look outside of your world, Jacob Black, you know that you'll see me, broken as I am, shattered and destroyed as I am, staring back. Do you really want me to take you to bed?
This explained just everything.
How he never liked me.
Then suddenly, after he had become deaf, he was all over me, in love with me, and so his mind tricked him, made him delusional, made him want me—and it had ruined Bella and mine's relationship.
The blood still stirred, hot, boiling steaming hot and I knew that anyone in my position would have acted this why. I was a tool to him that he'd throw away. And even if he didn't know it, even if he didn't see it, he was breaking me so inevitably. It just made me feel so very used.
"What if one does fall in love?" I finally said.
"Impossible. Their live are blood and death, slaying and drinking blood, they would never love and they had always learned how to hate. I don't that Jacob's any different now that he's adjusting to the Innovatives' hormones. He'll be one of them and you'll never see him again."
Somehow, that thought had left me confused, scared, and anxious and terrified—"never see him again"—was I in denial that I was falling in love with him? No. That could not be the case. I couldn't be in love with him.
Because he'd never fall in love with me.
Where was I in this cruel world put in? To fall in love with someone as cruel as Jacob Black? Maybe I could change him. Maybe I could turn him into one of us, a vegetarian, maybe he could be different. He was different from his kind, wasn't he? He had a human father instead of an Innovative father, would that make any difference? Any change?
Would it?
God help me.
Make me hate him all over again.
How big was this hole I'd fallen into?
And can I get out?
That explains it. I think.
Anyways, yes, don't bother looking it up on the internet, all of this is my creation because...I just like to, okay? :D It will be clear more and more about the Innovative in the upcoming chapters.
Review?
