Hey guys! I'm soooooooooooo sorry this took so long. But I've been having writers block as to how to make it more interesting. But I've also been really busy with getting ready for college and all. So let me know what you think!

Silence annoys me, it always has. But tonight's silence angers me. I rolled over in bed and found a pair of concerned chocolate eyes staring at me. He's always had this habit of talking to me, or should I say communicating with me, without actually saying anything.

"I never wanted this, Jacob. That's it." I told him, rolling away from him, more upset with myself than him.

"I know, Leah. I didn't ask for it either." He answered me. We lay there in the silence of our house for a few minutes, thinking about the events that had taken place just a few hours earlier. Our daughter, Marie, is now a werewolf. "I wouldn't want any of my children to become a werewolf, female or not." He added after our brief silence.

I turned abruptly back to him. "Why is it always Marie?" I asked him. "Everything always happens to Marie."

He chuckled to himself a bit. "Like mother like daughter." He said. He draped his arms around me and pulled me close to him. I was finding comfort in his embrace when he spoke up again. "Remember the first time you let me hold you like this?" He asked me.

"Yes, I do." It had taken forever for me to let myself get close physical contact with him, even after we were married. His warmth was what had bothered me the most. But now, years later, that warmth is what comforted me the most.

"Marie is strong. I know she's going to be fine. You know that too." He told me. And I suppose it's true. I just knew she's not going to enjoy it. It's hard to get used to. All the inner workings of a guys mind, and especially since she's dating one of them.

If she thought just being imprinted on was hard, wait until she sees inside his mind, and all the others. She's going to see Sammy thinking about her sister and her cousin thinking about his girlfriend.

I guess I should have known, since she's my daughter her genes would be screwed up somehow.

"Marie, wakeup sweetie." I crooned to my daughter. She looked normal, the same hair and face. Her eyes slowly opened and she suddenly sat strait up in bed.

"I just had the weirdest dream." She told me, almost breaking my heart. She thought it was a dream.

"Honey, I don't think it was a dream." I told her. Her face searched mine. She trusted me; I was her mother after all. "Some crazy things happened last night."

"What? What happened?" She asked me, hysteria rising up in her voice.

"Well, we went over to the party last night." I started out. "You made it official with Dylan."

"I did?" She asked me, but then she must have remembered. "Oh, yeah." She added, a smile plastering itself on her face and her mind going down memory lane.

"That's when things got crazy. You started getting really hot, and were running around screaming. You nearly scared us all to death. Especially Dylan. He was freaking out." I told her, laughing a little bit remembering him flustered and running abut her. He really was a sweet guy, cared a lot about her.

Her face changed. Realization hit her. "Oh. My. God." She said, clutching her chest.

"Now, just calm down. I know this is a big deal, but it's going to be okay." I tried calming her down. But I could see her body starting to shake. I grabbed her arm and burst out of the room with her behind me. "Lilly! Grab a change of clothes for Marie!" I yelled at her as we rushed through the living room where she and her father were watching TV. Jacob jumped up from the chair he was lounging on. I rushed us outside just in time to reach the forest edge when she phased into a midnight black wolf.

"Marie?" Lilly called out to her sister who was now in the form of a giant animal. She gazed up at her, mystified by her before coming up to my side and handing me a dress. Jacob was also outside with us along with Kayla, our youngest.

"Marie." I called out to her. I came up to her side, and started to lovingly pat her leg, that was covered in soft black fur just the same as her hair. Jacob was right, female wolves did look more feminine and slender. I wonder if she seemed more agile, and feminine in her movements. Jacob always told me I liked to prance around him when I would talk to him in phased form.

Marie looked down at me and seemed to look scared. I needed to phase to help her. "Stand back, Lilly, Kayla." Jacob looked to my face, and knew what I was going to do and herded our other girls back. I let the anger flood my body, that I had been holding back since last night. I felt my body change and when I opened my eyes I was face to face with Marie.

Mom?

Hi baby.

How do I get out of this? I'm scared. What will Dylan think of me?

All her thoughts were running together and jumbled up in her head and getting mixed up in mine.

Marie, calm down. It's okay. I'm here for you.

But I'm a giant dog!

You're a superhero.

I smell.

I know this takes getting used to. It is for everyone. But you have your father and I to help you. I promise, it will be okay.


I'm actually very surprised at how well the new pack accepted Marie. I think it mostly had to do with Dylan, but either way the boys were very nice to her. I guess Sammy being her half-brother and imprinting on her sister and of course Cody Meraz being her cousin helped too.

It seemed like every night at dinner Marie would have something to tell us about the pack or her experiences being a werewolf. It was quite comical actually because Lilly was pretty jealous of Marie and her being a part of the pack. I told this to Jacob and he laughed.

"That's true, only Lilly would be jealous of something like that." He said, lying next to me in bed. He rolled over closer to me and stocked my cheek. He smiled. "Maybe we should put Kayla in a box, so she doesn't get sucked into this crazy world either. " He told me, laughing at his own joke. He cupped my side and pulled me against him.

Our noses were touching, and I could feel his warmth spreading out over my body. I looked into his eyes and kissed him. Our bodies were pressed together in the bed and our kissing slowly became more and more passionate. I knew he was going in the direction of sex. This was the way he did it every time. Slow and lovingly holding me to him, and long, deep kisses full of passion.

I pulled myself away from his kiss. He gave me a look, as if to ask what's wrong. "Look, Jacob, I'm just not in the mood for that tonight." I told him. He just turned away from me. I felt bad, it wasn't that I didn't want to have sex with him; it was mostly that since I was a werewolf, I couldn't know when I was most fertile. So anytime that we had sex it was a coin toss. Actually, both Lilly and Kayla were accidents. "Oh come on Jake, do YOU want another baby now?" I asked him sarcasm dripping off my words.

He slowly turned back to face me. He had a sheepish look on his face. "Well, honey, I don't think trying would be such a bad thing." He said, clearly feeling ashamed that he didn't share the same view that I did.

I felt bad, instantly. He wanted another child. Why hadn't he told me before? "Jake?" I timidly asked of him.

"Leah, I love you more than life. Why wouldn't I want to grow our family together? We could, you know…" He trailed off, looking at me.

He wants a boy. I have always wanted a boy, and besides just that it would be someone to carry on the name.

"Okay, we can try for a boy, but not tonight. We should probably wait till the girls are out at sleepovers or something. You know we get pretty loud."

Okay well, I think this story is almost done. Maybe one or two more chapters left and It's going to be over. I'm going to be getting really busy soon so oneshots are going to be what I'm going to be focusing on more than anything. Let me know what you think!
