Angel B
Chapter 10
Alex POV
It must have been hours since I flashed out of the house in protest, but mom and dad stayed with me the entire time. When I finally started feeling more settled and hopefully brave enough to face the Russos I looked around at my parents and started to speak. "I want to talk to them, but I will not go anywhere with them. You are my family and that is something will never change." I had managed to pull myself together enough to say the words with a straight face thus hiding my true feelings.
"We will stand with you no matter what you choice is sweetheart, we just want you to be happy." Dad said whilst helping me up from the ground. I give him and mum a weak and not very hopeful smile before we start to walk back towards the house.
I guess we were farther out than I realized because fifteen minutes into the walk we were no where near home and so dad pulled me on his back and started to run home at his vampire speed.
Everyone was in the lounge, even the Russos. As I walked to an empty seat everyone kept their eyes on me with either sad or worried expressions on their faces. I had to pull all the courage in me together to just force myself to look them all in the eyes Yes, it breaks me to have to choose between them and I know someone will get hurt, but in the end I have made my decision and plan to stick to it. My eyes fell on my dad and he nodded at me to start, "I want to make one thing clear, the only reason that I am doing this - meeting you in person - is so that I can tell you that I will not be joining you on your journey back to your home. This is my family, my only family who has raised me and got me where I am today and you coming in now and asking for me cannot change any of that."
Everyone looked at me utterly shocked, even the Cullens who expected me to say something along those lines. Once the room recovered Mrs. Russo spoke in a soft and sad tone "Alex honey, we are your family," with tears running down her face as she continued to speak, "Not a day has gone by when I haven't thought about you and your wellbeing. We only left you here to protect you and now it's safe and we all want to see you, meet you properly and get to know you. Please come home with us honey, I'm begging you to come home"
"I'm very sorry but no, now I think it is time you go home. I have nothing left to say to any of you." I say in the iciest tone I posses and walk out the room. Not looking back at anyone or replying to the calls after me. This is the only way it's going to work.
Jacob POV
Sam gave me instructions to run a wide perimeter for the day and I was alone so I ran along the border when all of a sudden at a cliff near the border I got a whiff of a strange scent. It wasn't human, not vampire and certainly not wolf, but the vampire stench was hanging thick on it. I moved closer to the girl that lay there, but stayed far enough for her to not notice me.
And then she rose up and I saw her face. Suddenly I current ran through me and paralyzed me - she was just so beautiful that I couldn't tear my eyes off of her. And in that instant everything changed. I felt this pull towards her, too strong for someone to describe. It felt so right to be standing there near her. Like that was the whole point of my being - to protect her - because nothing else in the universe mattered. The pack, my love for my best friend Bella and myself had previously all been my priorities in life. Now they will always come in second place... to her. I kept staring at her beauty and just as the pull started to move me towards it I heard a voice in the pack link.
"Jacob! Return to the reservation NOW!" the order came from our alpha, Sam. I knew what had just happened - I imprinted on this unknown girl. However, instead of moving forward to meet her I heard someone approaching and started backing away. The trip to Sam's house took only minutes and he was waiting from me in front of it. As the dim lights become more clear I shifted from wolf to human, grabbed some clothes that were by the tree and put them on before walking into the house.
"Sam, why did you call me back?! What the hell is so important that you pull had me away from my imprint? Minutes after I saw her as well!" I spat at him. He was not the only one there and as I looked around I saw everyone looking at me with sad filled eyes. What the hell is going on?! Aren't they suppose to be happy for me? I just imprinted and it's kinda a big deal for me.
"You can't see her," Sam's tone was business like (just like when he gave us orders). I looked at him in shock with my mouth hanging open.
"WHAT?! And why not? She is my imprint! Do you not realize just how much this means to me!?" How could he say that I'm not allowed to see her?! It's like telling him he can't see Emily - it would simply never work.
"Jacob, you should know, it was not a coincidence that you smelled vampire on her. She has been living with the Cullens since she was a baby and so they raised her. Her name is Alexandra..." Information as important as her name suddenly caught me off guard. It is such a beautiful name, Alexandra. My Alexandra...
Wait a second. The Cullens? She lives with them? Why am I only finding this out now? A human living with the bloodsuckers is as good as a violation of the treaty between us, as us crossing over to their territory and hurting one of them. I have to get them away from her and soon. But how? What do I do?"Bella!" I blurted before rushing out of the house without looking at any of them or asking Sam for permission.
