Chapter 12.

Leah prov.

"Hey Leah." Jacob said walking up to me.

"Hey Jake, where were you last night?" I asked.

"I fell asleep with Eve at the beach near her house." He said.

"You two didn't do anything did you? Because she is only 16!" I said.

"No we didn't we just talked and fell asleep." He promised.

"Good." I said.

"But I did have a hunch about who her real parents might be." He said, I tensed up.

"Oh, um really?" I asked trying to keep calm.

"You're her real mum, you lied when you said to Sam and the packs that you had an abortion, didn't you?" He asked, I turned my face so I wasn't facing him.

"Leah I order you to tell me if Eve is yours and Sam's child!" he said in his Alpha 'voice.

"Yes, okay Eve is mine and Sam's child, I gave birth to her then gave her to old friends of mine who I knew I could trust her with, then after I phased I went back one night while Eve was asleep and told them that when Eve was older she had a chance of phasing to." I said with a sob.

"You're going to have to tell the tribe to night Leah, I'm sorry but you have to." He said giving me a brotherly kind of hug, I nodded slightly.

"Eve is going to be there as well." He said.

"I can't tell her Jacob, she would be crushed, I can't hurt her like that." I sobbed.

"It's okay, she will understand, I promise, who else knows?" He asked.

"Only my mum and Emily." I said.

"Wait Emily knows you had Sam child?" He asked.

"Yeah she knows I couldn't kill the child, and she accepts that." I said, He nodded.

"Okay, let go help the others get ready for tonight." He said, I wiped under my eyes, fixed myself up a bit and then nodded.

"I won't tell anyone, just so you know." He Said.

"Thanks." I mumbled.

"But you're still going to have to tell everyone at the bonfire." He said, I nodded and began to collect wood. After we had enough wood I walked home and helped mum prepare food, Jacob had left to go pick up Eve, I had to think of what I would say to night and when I would say it, Emily already know but she don't know she joined Jacob's pack or that she was even a werewolf, I had told her that she might become one when she was old enough but Sam hadn't gotten around to tell Emily about the new arrival to the pack, unfortunately what didn't know was that, that new arrival was his own daughter.

"Hey Lea what are you thinking so hard about?" Emily asked coming in the front door with Sam's arm around her.

"You know, the normal stuff." I said, this was code for thinking about Eve, Emily nodded.

"Hey Sam have you told Emily about our new pack mate?" Seth asked coming in from the kitchen with one of the cookies mum and I baked.

"Seth those are for the bonfire!" I said.

"There is plenty of them that no one will even notice this little guy is gone." He said plopping it into his mouth, I shook my head and looked out the window still trying to figure out what I was going to say tonight.

"What? Another guy has phased? Who was it this time?" Emily asked.

"This one wasn't a male, her name is Eve, as for the rest of her detail I do not know because she refused to tell me and when I tried to intimidate her with my size it didn't work either because she is almost my size so I put her in Jacobs pack." Sam said, Emily looked at me with questioning eyes, I knew what the question was so I nodded.

"When will I get to meet her?" She asked.

"Tonight, she is also Jacobs imprint so he is bring her to the bonfire to introduce her to the elders and the rest of the pack." Sam said.

"Speaking of the bonfire why don't you go do what you came here for and help the boys get ready." Emily said, Sam nodded, gave her a quick kiss then went out the back door to find the rest of the packs.

"So Eve joined the pack? How are you dealing with it?" She asked.

"Fine, we're getting along great, she is almost as tall as Sam and she is defiantly faster than I am, Jacob also imprinted on her." I said.

"Oh, how do you feel about that?" She asked.

"I don't know, I mean I know he won't hurt her but I also feel very protective of her and don't want him near her." I said.

"Don't worry about it, you said so yourself that Jake is a good guy and he wouldn't do anything to hurt her, have you told her that you're her real mum? Does anyone in the packs know yet?" She asked.

"I haven't had the guts to tell her, I'm scared that she will hate me and never speak to me again, only Jake knows but that's because he figured it out and now he is making tell everyone tonight at the bonfire." I sighed.

"I'm an uncle?" Seth yelled running in from the kitchen, I forgot he was in there and could hear our convocation.

"Seth quiet! I don't want everyone to know yet especially not Sam! But yes Eve is your niece, you can't tell anyone, she doesn't even know and I am telling everyone tonight." I begged, he nodded and walked back into the kitchen.

"Step away from the cookies and put the ones you have in your hands back Seth!" I yelled, I heard a "Damn it!" come from the kitchen and laughed along with Emily

"So what are you going to say tonight?" Emily asked.

"Truthfully I don't know, I really want her to know but I don't want her to hate me." I sighed.
