Seth walked over to Cody, he looked at her and made a grimace. Cody finally caught her breath and turned her head to look at Seth. A tear slid from the corner of her eye when she saw the anger in his face.

"I sorry!" she cried and began to weep. Seth felt so bad, he wasn't mad at her, he was mad at Embry for taking advantage of her.

"No, honey it's okay. I'm not mad at you. I'm angry with Embry for what he did to you." Seth stated in a soft soothing voice. He brushed the tears away with his hands and cupped her face between them. "I love you." Seth touched his lips to hers. The kiss was soft and sweet, causing Cody to feel more heat then the kisses Embry had given her. She wound her arms around Seth's neck and pulled him closer, Jacob quietly left the room closing the door behind him.

Seth raised his head and looked into Cody's love filled eyes. She smiled and traced his mouth with her fingers. "I love you, Seth. My heart is yours." Cody took Seth's hand and placed it on her chest over the rapidly beating of her heart. "My body is yours." Cody pushed Seth's hand slowly over her breast and down to stomach to the top her thighs. Seth smiled and with one fluid motion lifted Cody and pulled the sundress up over her head and tossed it to the floor then did the same to his tee shirt and cutoffs. Cody raised up and Seth slowly removed the little bikini panties she wore.

"Are you sure, do you understand what will happen next?" Seth asked feeling apprehension about going any further.

"Seth, I know about mating. I saw my wolf family mate, I have watched people mate on the picture box. Rosalie told me I should only mate if I love the person I am going to mate with. I love you. I have been learning, I know more words. Nessie helps, she says words then shows me them with her mind. It makes it easier. I am starting to read and do math, Carlisle says I am very fast at learning. He says I am now like a 6th grade level. I work hard." Cody spoke more then she ever had to Seth. Seth smiled and kissed her lips softly.

"I love you too, more then words can say." Seth deepened his kisses. He took his time caressing Cody's beautiful body, letting his eyes follow as his hands seared across her smooth cool flesh. Cody also caressed Seth's body feeling the hard muscles, her warm hands cool against his hot skin. Seth kissed every inch of Cody then went back to her lips and trailed his hot tongue down her chin over her throat to her firm hard nipples. He lavished each perfect breast with his mouth, sucking gently at each nipple causing Cody to moan quietly. He trailed his tongue lower over her stomach, her navel, then finally her womanhood. He spread her legs gently and began to devour her center. Cody writhed in ecstasy, relishing each touch from Seth. His fingers, tongue and mouth sent her to soaring heights, when she thought nothing could feel better then she did, Seth raised himself up and gently entered her, she gave out a cry as he severed her maidenhead. Then he stopped letting her body become use to his intrusion. Then he moved slowly at first, then building speed until Cody was whimpering for release. They climaxed together, both covered in sweat and each others scent. They laid in each others arms for what seemed like hours, covered by a thin quilt. Cody raised to a sitting position and looked down at Seth. He smiled up at her.

"Why does Embry want to do this to me?" Cody asked Seth.

"I think he is lonely. He doesn't have love of his own yet, an imprint." Seth stated rubbing his hand over Cody's bare back.

"He needs a woman, he needs to have his own woman. I cannot be his woman. I belong to you." Cody stated and patted Seth's chest. "How can we find him a woman?"

"I don't know, imprinting is very erratic. You never know who it will be, sometimes its completely confusing, like when Sam imprinted on Emily or Jacob on Nessie. Maybe if he just gets out among people he'll meet his mate." Seth stated.

"What of Leah, does she not have a mate?" Cody asked.

"No, she has no mate." Seth stated feeling sad for his sister.

"Then maybe they are to be mates." Cody suggested.

"Maybe, even Collin and Brady had found their mates. Only Leah and Embry remain single." Seth stated then pulled Cody into his arms.

The following morning Jacob, Seth, Quil and their ladies met with Embry and Leah, they loaded into Carlisle's suburban and headed for a carnival that was being held in Seattle. They rented two rooms, one for girls one for guys then went to the carnival, they rode rides, Quil got sick on the Ferris Wheel. Little Claire babied him the rest of the night. As the night wore on Leah and Cody took the little girls to the rest room, on the way back a handsome blond man bumped into Leah, he wasn't paying attention to where he was going and he looked stressed and worried. Leah looked at him and her life whirled into itself. Her eyes glazed and she knew it had happened, she had imprinted on this man. She asked him what was wrong and he began to explain that his daughters were missing. Leah called to Jake, Quil, Embry and Seth and they began to look for the fifteen year old girl and her eight year old sister. Embry was the first one to find them and when they looked up at the tall dark man, they both smiled and wiped away their tears. Embry bent down and looked at the younger girl's knee, she had fallen and scraped it, another clumsy little human. He felt for her. When he looked in the eyes of her older sister his meaningless life became a single purpose, this lovely blond girl became the center of his world. Her big blue eyes were like doors into the future, their future. She had went to find her sister and wound up getting them even more lost. Now their rescuer had come, she trusted him and knew he would protect them. He lifted her little sister and took her hand, they walked back to the Carnival and met up with their dad and their rescuers friends.

After talking for what seemed like hours, Embry asked Savannah out on a date. He had found that they had just moved to Forks a month before. Their date would be going to Port Angeles to the movies. Savannah's dad also had a date with Leah and Quil and Jacob offered to watch Savannah's little sister Tess. Nessie and Claire were thrilled.
