Chapter 12: The King

Jacob's POV

"How's it going Jake?" Alice said behind me. I told Jake I was packing up things outside…but in reality I was smoking. I didn't answer her; instead I stared out at the ocean with a cigarette hanging loosely from my lips.

"Doesn't Seth hate it when you smoke?"

"I'm immortal, it's not like it can kill me."

"Ya but it makes you smell bad." She chuckled. I sighed, puffed, and stared at her.

"You're gonna send our things right?"

"Of course, that, and a ton of baby stuff." She said with a smile.

"Little 'Embry' is gonna need it…you're ready for this right? Ready for a baby?" I smiled weakly.

"I've been ready since the death of the first one."

"That's a long time." She said curiously. I sighed.

"I'm…every cell in my body is telling me not to do it Alice but…I have too."

"Jake…if you really don't want to steal the baby…"

"What? No, not that, that baby is mine now…I mean getting a vasectomy." She stared at me shocked.

"Wait…you're serious? I thought you didn't…"

"I know what I thought Alice but…I need to do it. I…can't risk getting him pregnant again, I don't think I could bear losing another one…it'll drive me insane. If we want another, we'll adopt."

"I…alright Jake, I…agree, you should do it."

"I know I do." I said with a sigh. I stared out at the ocean.

"You know I never realized how much I was going to miss this place…I half want to stay."

"I wish you could." Alice said with a smile.

"But you can't because…"

"I know Alice, Emmet and Brady...er well, just Emmet." Alice sighed.

"Life's so complicated now…"

"It won't be for long…we'll leave, everyone else can start rebuilding our lives…Sam's dead…I killed him."

"Ya, about that, why the hell did you do it Jake?" Alice asked in a hushed tone.

"Because of that, a hundred other people are dead, why did you kill all those people, just so you could kill Sam?" I smiled.

"Alice…it's complicated."

"Oh don't give me that." She growled. "Come on Jake, you can tell me…"

"I…alright." I sighed before I began.

"Fair warning, it's a long explanation."

"I'm all ears."

"A long, long time ago, when my tribe was still alive, Sam was the Beta as you will, second in command. My father was the chief. See...Sam was the best warrior in our tribe, he was fast, strong, had a large amount of women who he fucked regularly…it's easy to say I used to have a crush on him. I idolized him…he was everything I wanted to be…sides the fucking women part…but one day my idolization turned to…jealousy and rivalry. My father loved him, not in that way, but loved him as the son he always wanted…I mean I wasn't a disappointment in my father's eyes, I was just still very young and not even a wolf yet…but anyway I'm rambling." I laughed at myself and puffed the cig then tossed it in the sand.

"To get to the point of all of this…I wanted my father to be as proud of me as he was of Sam. Sam was quite literally perfection back then…and I wanted to prove to my father and myself that I was better than him, that I was perfection…that I was the king, the piece in a game of chess that was more important than all the rest. I wanted to be the most important thing In my father's life, not Sam…and the importance of Sam is what led to the destruction of my tribe and the death of my father…you know who killed my father? Sam, it's quite hilarious to be honest…my father saw him as a knight on the chess board…he was like the vamps though, white, while we were black." She stared at me and I sighed.

"So all in all, I wanted to be better than him, and I wasn't going to let a couple of pawns stop me from finally proving that."

"You know…this isn't a game of chess, these are people you're talking about, people, not pieces on a chess board." She said. I smiled at her.

"There are worse games I could play." I stood and walked inside. Seth and Victoria were on the couch. Seth had the baby and Victoria was shoving a manila colored folder into her purse. I frowned at the sight of it, it looked oddly familiar.

"Ah, Jake." Seth said with a smile. He stood and pecked me on the lips.

"I think he wants his daddy." The baby started grabbing for me and I smiled as he handed me Coll…Embry.

"Hey." I chuckled as the baby grabbed my lip. He giggled and gave a big yawn.

"He just woke up…but he wasn't asleep for very long, he's probably gonna fall asleep again."

"Probably." I said with a smile.

"Maybe then we can return him to Emmet and Brady, Collin is their baby after all."

My blood went cold

I stared at him, my a shiver went down my spine, his voice…he had sounded so cold and dark, had I heard him right? Seth looked me right in the eye, his eyes piercing my soul

Manila folder

I turned and gave Alice the baby, and then I ran at Victoria. I wrapped my hand around her throat and slammed her into the wall.

"GIVE ME THE FOLDER!" I snarled in her face. He quickly pulled out the folder and I tossed her across the room, folder now in my hand. I opened it and a sick realization hit me hard in the stomach.

"How the fuck did you get these?" I roared, grabbing her by the arm and slamming her into the wall. She screamed as I twisted her arm around her back, ready to snap it off like a twig, when I felt the cold metal of a knife against my throat.

"I gave them to her my king." Seth whispered in my ear.

"Now let her go, and for once, listen to me now." I let her go, and she zoomed across the room, shaking in fear. I felt Seth let me go, and suddenly something was slammed against the side of my head. It didn't hurt, but it stunned me enough to make me fall over. I stared at Seth, who had a broken in two wooden baseball bat in his hand. He got on top of me and pressed the knife against my throat and growled.

"Now Jacob Black, you are going to fucking listen and not try to move, because you and I both know I can kill you and you can easily kill me, but I love you more than life itself, so you are going to sit here and listen to me, understood?" I just stared at him, afraid of him and yet weirdly turned on by him at the same time.

"First off…" Suddenly he stabbed me in the arm and I hissed as the blade pierced my skin.

"THAT IS FOR FUCKING WITH MY BRAIN!" he ripped it out and I growled at him and he growled back.

"Second…" He punched me square in the face.

"THAT'S BECAUSE YOU STOLE A BABY!" I frowned, mostly because I had barely felt his first and it sort of defeated the purpose.

"And finally…" Suddenly his lips were on mine.

"That's for being a selfish bastard." I stared at him, confused now.

"Alice, take Victoria and leave us alone for a good 30 minutes, just wait out in the car with the radio on and try to ignore us."

"I always do." Alice said, looking pissed off.

"The fuck just happened…" Victoria growled as Alice dragged her out of the house. I stared at him, tears streaked down my face.

"You know, when I got my memory back I was afraid I would go crazy again but…once I saw the baby I realized what you did and I…I realized that you…you…you've suffered all these years completely alone and I…you did all of this for me." He said. I just stared at him.

"Before you came home I gave Victoria the folder and I told her to give it back to me…at the time I did it simply because I wanted to beat you in your own game but before you did it I started wanting you to make me forget and save me from going insane, having forgotten that I gave her the folder…so when she brought me back I was afraid it would happen again but then I saw that baby's face and she told me and I…I couldn't believe you would do something so cold and terrible and…sweet just for me." I stared at him and I put my hand on his cheek.

"Of course I would you…Seth you are the only thing in this world that's even had any meaning for me, any purpose…you are all that matters." I sighed.

"You want to give him back don't you?" He just stared at me dumbfounded.

"Are you joking? Hell no I don't want to give him back…I think if we do I would be ok at first but then I would start going crazy again…" I was suddenly on top of him, surprising him greatly, and I growled.

"I won't let that happen, if Emmet were to find out…I would kill him if it meant protecting you from that…that place again. You know I will." Seth nodded.

"I know you will my king." I sighed.

"I think that position belongs to you…you're much stronger than I am Seth." Seth laughed.

"Of course I am, why do you think I'm the queen?" He smiled weakly.

"You know we have a good half an hour…you want to fuck one last time in the house?" I smirked.

"You and I have more in common than people give us credit for…we think alike." He laughed.

"Ya we do." I then began devouring his lips. He grabbed the knife and ran it down my shirt then tossed it away. I ripped the shirt off and started ripping his off as well. I tossed his away and I started kissing down his chest hurriedly. He moaned as I reached his stomach. I yanked his sweats off and started kissing around to his hardened cock. He gasped a little as I took it whole in my mouth. He moaned and groaned as I went up and down on him. I started yanking my own pants off as he got closer to the edge. But right before he hit that point I pulled off of him and yanked him up by his legs.

I positioned my hardened cock on his hole, but right before I entered I smelled something, and so did Seth.

"Oh fuck." We both stood and pulled our pants on and ran outside…

"Jacob."

It was Emmet

"H-hey Emmet." I said, I looked behind him, no one was there.

"Victoria just came to see me and told me…everything."

"I-I tried to stop her Jake." Alice said, getting out of the car, the baby sitting in the baby seat asleep.

"She…I had the baby so I could chase her…she was angry with Seth for letting her get attacked and you for attacking her."

"Tell me its not true Jake." Emmet looked pained, extremely pained by the very thought.

"Please…Please tell me you didn't try to…"

"I did." I said with a frown.

"And I still am Emmet…the baby is mine now." Seth was frozen stiff next to me and Emmet still looked pained.

"Jake…you, you were like a brother to me…don't don't…don't make me kill you. Just…give me the baby and all of this will be forgotten." I sighed.

"Emmet…I think of you as one of my few, close friends…but do you remember how you felt when you thought Brady was dead?" He nodded and I continued.

"Well that's how I feel knowing Seth is in pain…and you taking that baby will bring that back…and I can't allow that, no matter who it is." He stared at me and shook his head.

"Then I'm sorry I have to do this." He took off his coat and tossed it on the car, then he charged me. I felt his fist slam right into my stomach and I soon went flying up, going right through the gutters and onto the roof.

He jumped and landed right at my feet as I started coughing up blood.

"You're tough Jake, that would have killed anyone other vampire…but that's my kid Jake, just…give him to…" I slammed my foot into his crotch, making him gasp and I stood and punched him with all of my strength right in the face. He flew off the roof and I roared after him as he slammed into the ground 20 feet away.

"I'm sorry Emmet, but the baby's mine now, and I will kill you if I have to." I felt my body shudder, and the old need to destroy Sam changed, now it was all focused on Emmet, a vampire.

I had to prove I was better than him, that I was king. I let the transformation take over; soon I was a gigantic russet colored wolf, my fur seeming to shine in the light of the day. I jumped off the roof and ran after him. He staggered up right as I bit into his shoulder.

"AH!" he roared, grabbing my ear and tossing me away.

"Stop it!" Alice cried out. She ran in between us.

"Both of you! You are going to kill each other!"

"I think that's the general idea Alice." Emmet snarled, grabbing the large chunk that was missing from his shoulder. I spat say chuck out of my mouth and chuckled, which in wolf form was like a rasping sound. He snarled and Alice smacked him across the face.

"Emmet, I'm a lot stronger than you…so leave, now." He snarled at her.

"You would take his side?" She growled back.

"Of course I would! I respect him more than I do you…and while he is your child, he needs him more than you." He growled once again.

"FINE!" He turned and started stomping away. I shifted and walked over to Seth, who was still standing there dumbstruck.

"Thanks A…ALICE!" I roared, she turned, but too late, Emmet's hand went right through her stomach.

"Ah!" she gasped, staring down at the hand. He pulled out of her and fell over. Emmet charged and I pushed Seth out of the way. He grabbed my arm and twisted, it snapped and I roared in pain.

"Sorry, the baby is mine." Emmet growled. He threw me next to Alice, who was lying, gasping for air.

"Ah, J-Jake…"

"Now…I'll be taking the baby." He walked over to the car door…but Seth stood in the way.

"Y-you aren't taking my baby." I tried to stand but gasp as I realized the bone in my arm was sticking out of the skin.

"Fuck…"

"Move Seth…I don't want to hurt you too." Emmet truly did look pained about all of this…but my beautiful Seth was adamant.

"I…I can't Emmet." He sighed.

"Then I'm gonna have to make you…"

Suddenly there was a flash, and suddenly his arm was gone. Another flash and suddenly he was flying right through the front door of the house.

"See, I did tell you I would pay you back friend…so I made a few." Tanya said, sitting down Indian style next to my head. I just stared at her.

"I...thought you already paid me back." She laughed.

"Well ya…but I truly like you kid, so I've been keeping tabs on you…tell me, did you ever wonder how exactly I knew where Demetri was?" I shook my head and she laughed.

"He's my great, great, great grandfather!" Demetri was suddenly there, Nahuel was sitting on top of the car, playing with those same cards. Demetri seemed amused by me.

"My, aren't you in a little predicament?" He tugged on his suit to straighten in and sighed.

"My, now what exactly have you done to piss my dear sweet Emmet off so much?"

"I…stole his baby." He stared at me, and then busted up laughing.

"Truly? Oh how horribly tragic for him!" Suddenly the baby was in his arms, still sound asleep.

"Ah this is him hmm?" He smiled.

"Cute kid can't see a thing of Emmet in him." Emmet rushed out of the house and charged Demetri, Demetri blurred for a split second and Emmet was going 50 feet through the air in the other direction.

"I certainly see a lot of that other boy in him…"

"DEMETRI!" Emmet roared.

"I killed you before I can do it again!" Demetri started laughing and handed the baby to Seth.

"Hold this will you?" Seth seemed completely confused and turned to stare at me, wanting an explanation.

"Y-your Demetri?" Seth said, taking the baby. Nahuel giggled behind Seth.

"Yup!"

"Emmet!" Demetri said with an amused smile.

"You never killed me, that much is obvious isn't it? I will admit…you did surprise me when you brutally backstabbed me all those years ago…but I only let you think you killed me boy. You see…a good friend of mine saved me all those years ago…another of my children, just like you were my bastard son." He flinched and Demetri smiled.

"Ah, here he is now."

Felix appeared, on his back was Riley, looking a little scared yet hungry.

"Hello master."

"Hello Felix my good child, I take it you…"

"I felt the pain of one of my own children…Alice." He put Riley down and rushed to her side, she was coughing up blood as the hole in her started getting bigger.

"F-Felix…what are you doing with…I…"

"I'll explain later my dear…drink my blood, it'll heal you." She bit into his arm and started drinking. Emmet seemed as confused as the rest of us…except Tanya, who was still looking at me.

"Want me to fix that arm for you?"

"After." I groaned.

"Y-you never told me you had other…"

"Oh Emmet…I have 'children' all over the world…you forget just how old I am…and…" He was suddenly behind Emmet, his hands twisting Emmet's last remaining arm.

"How quick I am." Demetri laughed.

"You see love, all of these good people here today are under my protection, and you know what that means…you were once under it. But perhaps you should explain to all of them." Emmet seemed to be in great pain and incredible suffering.

"It…means that if anyone tries to hurt them they…"

"Lose a limb." Demetri finished.

"Now I already ripped off one arm…should I rip the other off?" Emmet cried out.

"You might as well kill me…it's the only way I will stop trying to get the baby."

"Ah you see Emmet, normally I would kill all of them and give you the baby back…but my love, do you remember what I said right before you 'killed' me? I said 'One day, you will need me, and I won't be there, and you will regret this day for the rest of your life.' That is what I said to you…and now this is your punishment for leaving me and 'killing' me child…they will have your kid, and you will lose a limb. A fitting punishment I think…but love I don't wish for you to die, you have that Brady whore you left me for. So leave, go to him…if you leave peacefully I'll even send you your arm in a year or two so you can reattach it." He stared at him then suddenly at me, hatred full in his eyes.

"Fine." Demetri was off of him in a flash and Emmet stood.

"Demetri…you're just going to have to kill me because…I can't go home without that baby." He sighed.

"Noble Emmet but futile…I'm sorry love, but it seems in the end, I won. Laurent?" Then suddenly Emmet's head was gone, his body stumbled forward then fell onto the ground. I hadn't seen Laurent since the ordeal with the Glitter Killer.

"So sorry Emmet…Laurent my child, if you don't mind?"

"Of course man." Laurent said in that odd Jamaican accent of his. He ripped the body apart…I had to look away, and soon purple smoke flew into the air.

"Bye Emmet…I'm sorry." I said under my breath. Tanya sighed.

"Well that was a waste…he was so cute too."

"Indeed." Demetri said with a sigh.

"But, oh well! Felix?"

"My blood…it's not healing her…I don't think…"

"Alice!" I groaned, staring at her. She let go of the arm.

"Jake I…if I die I just want to say I…"

"Oh quiet girl, you aren't going to die. You belong to one of my golden children Felix…what kind of grandfather would I be if I didn't help my own?" He kneeled next to her and gave her his exposed arm.

"My blood is much older and has better healing effects, just drink for a few seconds and you'll be fine." She did as instructed and I literally watched the hole in her chest disappear in just a few seconds. He pulled off and laughed.

"I can't have you drink too much…its addictive and could spell the end for you."

"Y-ya…" she said, seeming dizzy.

"Now Tanya, our werewolf friend?" Suddenly there was a snap as she realigned the bones in my arm.

"AH!" I cried out as she put it back in place.

"Drink." Demetri said. I took a cautious sip and my body shuddered, his blood tasted like…well imagine the feeling you get when you orgasm, through your whole body, times a million. I drank for only 3 seconds before he pulled his arm away. I stared at my arm, now completely healed. I stood and was shocked to see it worked fine, like nothing had happened to it.

"I…" Demetri sighed.

"Yes your welcome…now I'm ready to leave, Tanya, Laurent? He was next to the car suddenly and gestured for Nahuel to come down, which he did by jumping into Demetri's arms."

"Are we leaving back for London?" Nahuel asked curiously.

"Yes child." He said with a smile, kissing the child on the forehead.

"Wait!" I called. He stopped and stared at me.

"What? You have your child; let that be the end of it."

"Just before you go…I just have one question."

"Fine."

"What…what are you?" He smiled.

"Do you remember all of those old stories about Dracula and Nosferatu?"

"Y-ya…"

"Those were about me." He said with a grin, his blood red eyes sparkling. He was suddenly gone, Laurent disappeared after him and Tanya gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Be seeing ya friend." She was gone and I turned to stare at Seth, who was staring back at me. He rushed forward and was about to hug me when he suddenly remembered the baby.

"We…I…" Seth didn't seem to know what to say.

"Checkmate." I said. He stared at me and I stared at him.

Then we both started laughing

I realize some of you may have been blindsided and are thinking WTF. I also realize there may be Emmet fan boys/girls at my door ready to kill me so…ya please review and stuff and read the epilogue!
