Chapter Ten
Jacob's POV
I couldn't stop myself, even with that pivotal moment of sudden realization of who she was I still couldn't hold on, I didn't want to, I was falling – diving head first into an abyss of delirium and complete happiness – scared shitless about the consequences of what just happened and yet utterly fearless to embrace this internal ecstasy that I was feeling. My path may have taken me for a cruel and twisted ride, but ultimately it led me to her,
My destiny – My imprint – My love - Renesmee Cullen: daughter of the man I once hated and the woman I once loved.
I could feel myself shedding all those feelings I had over the years that were selfishly centred on me and piece by piece they were being replaced by her. I no longer had the desire to satisfy my own needs but a compulsion to satisfy hers.
She was the most beautiful woman I had even seen. Her chocolate eyes were so rich and innocent – her lips so full and luscious and her hair formed perfect spirals of bronze perfection cascading down her petite frame. I was incapacitated, completely inebriated with the mere memory of her. I could still taste her in the air. My every sense was awakened. I felt revitalized with a brand new purpose in life. I shed the skin of old petty incomplete Jacob Black and stepped boldly into the superior version of myself – confident and happy.
Wow! Happy – that was a feeling that I was most certainly not familiar with... I smiled at that thought, although I'm sure it may have come across as a goofy kind of dog-grin, but I was happy I am happy.
Jake - sorry I had to phase – Sam wanted to know if you've decided about attacking....holy fucking shit you imprinted!.... on a…Cullen! Seth's voice screeched out.
I was too submerged in my thoughts to even pay attention to anything else, especially Seth.
Seth what the hell is keeping you so long Leah's getting worried and if I have to ..... Dude, no way! You imprinted! Shit who is she...no fucking way! Jacob Black imprinted on someone and it's not Bella! Call the press! Embry said as he let out a laugh.
Do I have to do everything myself Embry and what is so damn funny?...wait...No no no it's not true.... Jake wouldn't imprint on fucking bloodsucking leech and especially not a Cullen Leah said
I was ignoring my brother's cracks at me quite comfortably but I was wrenched out of my thoughts when I heard Leah's snide remark.
I let out a low growl
Leah you had better watch your fucking mouth when you're talking about her! I said in my Alpha tone. I've never spoken to Leah like that before but she was sure as hell NOT allowed to talk about Renesmee like that.
Jeez Jake, okay, okay...but seriously you imprinted on a lee... Cullen? Edward and Bella's daughter no less, you sure know how to pick em' Leah said as she joined Embry in laughter now.
What's the holdup guys?.... Huh! Jake...bro you imprinted wow congrtz dude! Now you get to stop tormenting us with your loneliness Quil said as he joined us
Yeah I was about to kick your ass there for a minute Paul said
Yeah, you wish. I said
Wait a minute...Jake... if you imprinted on who you think you did then.... she's only twelve years old Jacob! Quil stated.
She's twelve years old! Leah exclaimed.
Embry just continued to laugh.
I quickly remembered Edward telling me about how fast she was growing inside of Bella, maybe it was something about her being half vampire I thought – but whatever it was, it was all good for me...I found my imprint.
Quil...does she look like twelve years old to you? I retorted
No definitely NOT Quil said with a chuckle.
Keep you flipping eyes to yourself Quil I snorted.
But..... you just asked me if she looked... Quil started
I growled
I can't believe it Embry said through fits of laughter
Jacob Black Alpha of the QuileuteTribe – his main duty is to kill vampires and he goes and imprints on one! Embry said as he now let out a booming laugh and everyone joined in.
They were seriously annoying me now.
Stop it! I ordered
Silence filled the air.
I smiled.
Okay now, why did you guys phase again? I asked
Well in case you've forgotten we were planning on attacking the Cullen's, Sam's pack is here and we're waiting for the word. Is it a go or not? Leah asked
No! We're not attacking anyone! I ordered
Ah man! I was really hoping for some action tonight Paul said
Just like that…you're going to allow them to take a human's life and do nothing! Leah exclaimed
Listen, as much I hate to admit it, Edward's hands were tied, he didn't even want to turn her…it was only because she was dying that he turned her… he wanted to save her…so that she could be there for her daughter, my Renesmee I said.
Okay Alphy I see Leah said
I growled
Jake, are sure you're okay with this? Leah asked sounding sceptical.
Leah this is the most amazing feeling in the world, it's nothing like having your freewill taken away. It's just pure love -like having everything that you have ever wanted in your entire life moulded together and given to you on a silver platter - the imprint just points you in the right direction. I stated
Well I'm really happy for you then Leah said before she phased.
I soon heard my mind become free of my pack's thoughts as everyone phased to inform Sam of what I had decided. I wondered how he was going to react for a moment but I couldn't think straight, I have an imprint, someone just for me, I was ecstatic; everything made sense in the world with just one look from this beauty.
All my thoughts quickly flowed back to what just happened, I knew that Edward had heard what I said about that guy that came and stood by my imprint. I let out a low growl at the memory of that. But did he know that I imprinted on his daughter?
I was growing restless now just staring at the door that my soul mate just went through. I just had to catch another glimpse of her. I rose to my feet and trotted around the house, being careful to stay under the covers of the trees - the last thing I needed was to explain myself to the Cullen's why I was here alone after I had promised to let them stay unharmed until Charlie pulled through.
I caught a whiff of her scent as I turned the bend; it was enough to send tingles through my entire body. I followed my nose around the house and then I looked up. I saw my beauty for a brief second through the closed window. Wow, she's perfect My heart sped up again and I was instantly captivated with her, but that momentary vision of beauty didn't last long. I saw her reach for the curtains and pull them down. No! God! I began to really fight with my instincts not to just jump up there and go crashing through the window and stake claim of my mate, but I decided against it, I really didn't want to kill my imprint with fright on our first meeting.
I lingered a little longer and after I saw that my imprint was safely in her bed, I soon realised that I myself was tired too, so I turned and decided to go home. I started to run, with Renesmee being the only thing on my mind, the cool air blew my fur back as I raced through the forest but I immediately began to slow down, the further away I went from her the more I felt as though my heart was slipping beneath my paws, and with each stride I was pummelling it to the ground, each stride, the links that had been fused to me were pulling and tearing my heart. This strange feeling was crippling, I realised that I couldn't physically be away from her, my breathing started to get irregular, my body felt week, I needed to be close to her even if I was just close enough to smell her I would be okay.
I turned and headed back through the forest, towards her bedroom. Her scent was lingering faintly in the air and I closed my eyes as it comforted me. I looked around, in an attempt to find a spot to rest seeing that I would die if I was away from her. I found a place underneath a large tree where I had a clear view of Renesmee's bedroom. I circled the spot that I had picked out and then lay down making sure that there was no obstruction with the view of her window. I closed my eyes and visions of my imprint flashed across in my mind like little lightening bolts against a black sky.
***
I woke up early the next morning and stretched myself trying to fully get rid of the slight drowsiness I felt. I took a deep breath in and was hit for six with the scent of my imprint - so strong as if she was right in front of me. I got up and looked in the direction of her bedroom window but it was open and I didn't see her. I felt the panic start to kick in, but just then a gush of wind blew past me and I captured her scent again She was here I thought.
I looked around and my eyes suddenly came upon her as she moved my way. Dear God she's gorgeous! I really thought that I was over the initial sensation of imprinting but I was wrong, I was hit again by another blast of the most powerful type of love – able to obliterate anything in its path – like a nuclear bomb blasting me away as it exploded and rippling through my body in the aftermath.
I stood there unable to move as she came even closer she was hugging herself She's cold then she closed her eyes, I could hear her heart beating really fast Did something happen? Why was she scared? My body propelled forward and I came close to her, I studied her face for a moment - she was angelic Am I dreaming I thought, but just then her eyes slowly opened, a sudden look of surprise flushed her face and she fell backwards Shit! Are you okay I thought as my legs finally caught on and walked closer now. It then dawned on me that I was in my wolf form I was scaring her.
But then my eyes met with hers and I felt my body ignite and roaring flames of love and devotion seared through me. I was hypnotized by her, spellbound – I was completely lost in the beauty of her eyes, I saw her in that moment, everything I've ever needed was right before me. I realised that she and she alone held the power to make me feel this way. I've never felt so vulnerable and yet so complete – I was at her mercy.
I was enchanted by her, the lines that were drawn by my ancestors between wolves and vampires were long since forgotten - all I could see was her. Compelled by the overwhelming need to be near her, to touch her - I moved even closer, breathing in and out steadily and never taking my eyes away from hers, I could feel myself being drawn to her, my stomach was tying in knots with anticipation, I needed to know what her skin felt like, I needed it like the air that I breathe, like the blood in my veins, I needed to touch her like a wolf needed their imprint – like I needed my Renesmee.
My head moved inexplicably closer - I slowly closed my eyes committing this moment to memory and savouring each new sensation I was feeling as I got even closer. The tip of my nose soon touched her cool cheek slightly and I was instantly addicted. Her soft porcelain skin felt so perfect I almost went mad. I imagined what it would be like to kiss her supple lips, I was so tempted and if I was in my human form I don't know what I would have done.
Being near to her was amazing but touching her was incredible, it sent little jolts of pleasure surging through my body, I needed more of her, even though she was right here - I traced my nose down the curve of her cheek towards her jaw God! This felt too good to be true I needed to know if it was real, I raised my head up a bit and inhaled deeply and her scent filled my lungs - then spread out to every creak and crevice of my body. She was certainly real, she was mine, my missing piece, my mate...my love.
I crumbled to the ground with this affirmation that she was here as real as ever - I wanted more than anything to stay here forever, feeling her near me, hearing the perfect rhythm of her beating heart and smelling that alluring scent of hers. I couldn't get close enough to her so I wrapped my tail around her and brought my paws in closer and rested my head in her lap. She felt so amazing - then I felt her small hands stroke my fur sending shock waves of bliss through me oh fuck I groaned with pleasure, it felt so good to be touched by her I was getting delirious - then I heard:
"Wow you know your fur is really soft ...and you're huge as hell...but you're beautiful, you know that"
I smiled...My imprint just spoke to me...and she thinks I'm beautiful! Yes! I love you, I love you! I was shouting this to her but she couldn't hear me - I was in complete ecstasy.
"Oh my god I'm going mad! - I'm talking to a large wolf in the forest, just great Renesmee great" my imprint exclaimed.
NO! Wait! I shouted at her comment and the fact that she tried to get up and leave me. I restrained her by holding my body firmly against her. I couldn't let her get away
Stay here, you can talk to me about anything Renesmee, just please stay, please!
"Hey, I can't stay here you know. I have a very large family of vampires that would be looking for me if I don't get back right now - so up you go" Renesmee said.
So what! I would fight a legion of vampires... my train of thought was cut when I smelt Edward coming.
I rose up off of Renesmee to confront him and tell him how I felt about his daughter, when with a sprint Edward came through the trees and dragged Renesmee by the hand away from me and was yelling at her. I was furious now, I was ready to kill him. How dare he treat her like that?
Edward. Put. Her. Down. Now. I thought at him I was growling trying very hard to repress my instincts to just reach over there and tare his throat out.
"She's my daughter" Edward shouted.
I growled louder now. She's MY imprint! Now put her the fuck down! I was ready to leap over there and snatch her back from him. But then I saw her face as she clung to her father, my anger disappeared. I wanted to comfort her.
Edward, I imprinted on her she's my .... I started to say but Edward cut in
"I don't care what the hell you think happened, she's my daughter!" "If I ever see you around her again, I swear to god I'll rip you apart limb by limb"
Edward No! Was all I managed to say to him before I saw them disappear through the trees.
FUCK! I wanted so bad to go after her, the imprint connection was pulling me to her but I couldn't, I had to resist. I saw the look on my imprint's face just now, she was scared and if I went behind her and fought her father and probably the rest of the Cullen's and took her away - she probably wouldn't like me very much.
I had to come up with a better way to approach her, then I realised that she's never even seen me human before. God! I needed to think things through if I wanted her – which I desperately did.
