"Why the hell do I have to do you say," Shay snapped as we walked down the dirt path in the direction of Sam and his fiancée Emily's house.

"Because you know I will kill you if you don't," I snapped back. What should have normally been a five-minute walk from the school to Sam's house turned into twenty with Shay's constant stopping in the middle of the path to complain. I was tempted to tie a leash around his neck and drag him the rest of the way.

The rest of the pack had walked ahead and were most likely there already.

"Would you stop complaining and hurry the hell up?" I growled, baring my canines at him slightly, "You have made your own decisions and you have to deal with the consequences."

"It's not my fault you can't control your own pack," He sneered. I grinded my teeth together, the thought of killing Shay looked very appealing at the moment but I knew I would never do that. He was a member of my pack and not matter how much he drove me insane that was a small, very small, part that cared for him like a brother or a very distant cousin.

I had called Sam. I was grateful when Quil had given me his home phone number, as soon as his and my pack had left the school to tell him what was going on. I wanted to at least give him a little bit of a heads-up before my pack randomly showed up on his doorstep. Sam had, thankfully, agreed to sitting everyone down and talking.

Sam had also said on the phone that my pack and I were more than welcome to just walk into the house and there was no need for us to knock on the door.

I breathed a sigh of relief when we reached the end of the dirt path to see a small two-story cream colored house with a worn wrap around porch. It looked so homey with the pots of blooming flowers dotted around the porch and hanging from hooks along with pale blue shutters and the front door that was painted in the same color.

Shay and I climbed up the porch steps, the floorboards squeaking in protest under the weight.

"Hello," I called out as I pushed the door open and made my way into the house with Shay trailing behind me.

"We're all in the kitchen, Aerie," Sam called back from further in the house.

Shay and I walked into the house to see the kitchen divided. Werewolves on one side while were cats were on the other. The tension in the air, as the two packs glared one another, was so thick anyone would have been able to cut through it with a knife. Immediately, my eyes searched for Jacob, to see him sitting beside Quil and Embry. I blushed when I saw that he was staring right back at me before he smiled causing my blush to darken.

"So who would like to speak first?" I asked, trying to break the silence as Shay and I took a seat at the table.

"What is there to say? Your idiot pack member almost got me killed," Paul snapped from his side of the table.

"Maybe you should reword that statement," Shay hissed, his blue eyes burning with hatred as he looked at Paul, "I'm pretty sure that you're the one who is the idiot."

"Shay!"

He shrugged, "I'm only speaking the truth."

"Enough," I growled, "You will not utter another word."

"Than why do I have to be here?"

"Because I am the Alpha and what I say goes!" I yelled. Shay's eyes widened a little as he sunk back in his chair. Everyone else in our pack, including the werewolves, looked at me with wide eyes.

"I have had enough of your smart remarks, Shay Allen," I hissed, venom seeping into every word that I uttered. "You have caused nothing but trouble since you joined this pack and as Alpha I have the right to banish you, but luck is on your side. I am feeling generous today but if you so much as attack on of these werewolves again, you are on your own."

"Muffins, anyone?"

Everyone looked away from Shay and I to see Sam's fiancée Emily standing in the doorway to the kitchen with a tray stacked with a mountain of muffins. She was a raven haired beauty, except for the three deep and long scars that ran down her face. They started from the right side of her face, distorting her features slightly by pulling the corner of her eye and her mouth. She was still beautiful though and she had a friendly smile.

"Muffins would be lovely," I smiled, "Thank you."

I saw Sam smile at me from the corner of my ear. He must have been happy that I didn't flinch or shy away after seeing Emily's appearance. Getting a scar was something that was normal for a werecat when we were fighting vampires. All of us learned at a young age not to judge someone on what he or she looked like but how pure and good their heart was.

I could tell that Emily had a pure heart and wanted something but the best for her Sam and any of the pack members.

As soon as Emily set the tray on the table, all of the wolves attacked it like they had never eaten a morsel in their life before.

"Leave some for Aeriol and her pack," Emily scolded before grinning at me and moving to sit on Sam's lap. He wrapped his arms around her before kissing her on the forehead while she giggled. Some of the pack members, mostly Jared and Paul, grumbled under their breath.

"Thank you," Ren said, smiling at Sam and Emily before taking a muffin from the tray with Calla, Bryn and Ansel following suit. They all took one bite and moaned in unison.

"This muffin is amazing," Calla whispered, "How did you become this amazing at cooking?"

Emily giggled. "Lots and lots of practice and it helps that these guys will eat just about anything you put in front of them."

Calla and Bryn giggled, taking another bit out of their muffin while Carissa and I reached for one at the same time. We both froze as we reached for the same one. She gave me a soft smile before grabbing a different one and leaning back in her chair.

I smiled back at her, it seemed as though she was over our argument from last night. That's what I loved most about Carissa, how we could argue and fight but we were still best friends along with being the alpha and beta of this pack.

I took a small bit out of my muffin and moaned softly at the flavor that erupted in my mouth. Emily giggled at my reaction.

"So, Aerie," Sam said, catching my attention, "I take it that you are anxious to get some answers about what happened a few days ago."

I looked up from my muffin and saw that some of the wolves looked tense, including Jacob.

I nodded.

"Well what would you like to know?"

"Everything," I answered simply, "I want to know everything that has to do with why the redheaded leech was on La Push land and what this Bella girl has to do with anything?"

Sam chuckled. "That could take awhile."

"We have plenty of time."

He chuckled again before beginning to tell the story of how the Cullen's really were vegetarians and that they drank the blood of animals instead of humans.

"That's why their eyes are gold instead of red," Sam explained before going on with his story.

I narrowed my eyes when Sam told of when Bella moved here from Phoenix, Arizona and that she and Edward fell in love with each other. Unfortunately, this attracted some unwanted attention from a group of nomads, who did drink human blood. One of the nomads tracked Bella down and attacked her in some dance studio she had gone to as a child.

Edward and his family had saved her by killing the nomad but not without pissing off his mate, who happened to be the redheaded leech who was named Victoria. Everything went back to normal at least until Bella's eighteenth birthday.

That's when things apparently got ugly.

Sam went on to tell us that one of Edward's "brothers" named Jasper attacked Bella after she got a paper cut from opening a gift at the birthday party. Her leech had decided that they were all too dangerous so they packed up and left. Bella became a shell of herself than and the only thing that seemed to make her better was being around Jacob.

I looked over at Jacob than but he wouldn't meet my eyes, instead he was looking out the window with his hands clenched at his sides. I wanted to do nothing more than walk over and hug him.

"Everything was good for a while, Bella was getting better," Sam continued, "Or at least that's what we thought but she started to do some crazy things, like jumping off a cliff for example. The stunt that she pulled brought back one of the bloodsuckers who said that she thought Bella was dead when she jumped cliff.

The bloodsucker told Bella that Edward thought she was truly dead and was going to kill himself to be with her so Bella ran off to Italy for three days and came back with Edward in tow.

Everyone in my pack hissed in disgust when Sam finished with how Bella was planning on marrying Edward and becoming a vampire after she graduated from high school.

"She wants to be one of them?," Bryn's upper lip curled in disgust as she hissed.

"She won't be one," Jake growled, glaring at us, "It breaks that treaty that if one of those bloodsuckers bites a human than we have the right to kill them all."

"That may not stop her though," Carissa mused. "It sounds to me like this human would do anything to become a vampire if it meant she gets to stay with this Edward guy forever."

"Talk about clingy," Ansel whispered while Ren and Shay chuckled. I bit my lip to keep from laughing.

"And where does Victoria fit into all of this again?" I asked.

"She wants revenge against Bella for killing her mate, James," Same explained, "That's why we needed your help the other day with tracking her. She was an uncanny ability with being able to escape. No matter what we do we're never able to catch her. It's a constant game of cat and mouse."

"It seems as though this girl keeps fighting with fate. It sounds like she was supposed to die ages ago," Shay mused, earning him a glare from Jacob.

"Hush, Shay," I hissed softly, glancing at Jake from the corner of my eye. There was a part of me dying to know why he was being so protective over some human girl but there was another part that knew although I didn't want to admit it. I stood up from my seat and smiled at Sam.

"Thank you for allowing us to come into your home and explain to us what is going on here, Sam," I smiled, "If you need help with anything else, feel free to ask."

He smiled. "We may eventually take you up on that offer."

And with that, my pack and I said our goodbyes, which were much more relaxed than when we had first gotten here. I told tell that my pack was more comfortable around the werewolves now and the same with the wolves. I grinned at the thought that we were actually beginning to trust one another. I just hoped that this would last.

Once we were out of Sam and Emily's house, I lead the way down the dirt path back towards our home. I was walking much faster than anyone else, who were all taking their time walking home while they chattered together about everything we had learned.

I reached the house first, walking up the porch steps to the front door. I unlocked the deadbolt first and than the door before walking inside. I froze, catching the scent of roses and vanilla lingering in the air. It was not the scent of any of my pack members. Someone else was here. My muscles tensed and my nails growing into sharp claws as I made my way around the corner.

And there in the living room, sitting like she owned the place was the one and only Calypso Valdez.

I would like to than Whoa it's fandoms for her amazing OC Calypso Valdez, who you will all being seeing a lot more of, especially in the next chapter :D I hope you all loved the chapter and I will try to update as soon as I can :D And keep the reviews coming, I always want to know what you all think of my story :D

Love,

Owly
