Before I get on with the story, you guys must probably be wondering why I took so long to update... Well, two reasons:

1) I was grounded.

2) Since life sucked, I was having a few suicidal thoughts but I'm okay now...

So, my fellow readers and reviewers, PLEASE DON'T HATE ME!!!

Oh, and I sort of forgot to put disclaimers in the other chappies so...

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT...


Bella POV

More snarls were coming from around us... Then I realised that the figures weren't trees.

We were ambushed by werewolves...

Bella POV

Julius tightened his grip on me. There were not many Wolves, just three of them. Or at least that's what it sounded like.

It wasn't hard to imagine them as giant horses with muscles and teeth. Long, pointy, scary teeth.

The Wolf that I could see was walking towards Julius and I, looking from me to him.

Unexpectedly, Alyssa whistled, distracting the Wolf. "Come and get me you big fat hunk of crap!" she taunted.

The Wolf's attention stayed with Alyssa for one second. That was all Julius needed. In one second, he ran into the forest whispering profanities to himself.

I didn't mind thought, I stayed quiet, still pretending to be asleep. It stayed that way half the time Julius was running until a figure moved from the corner of my eye.

By the time I realized what it was, it was too late. The Wolf tackled Julius to the ground. Julius dropped me.

My head hit something hard, causing me to black out.

"You think she's okay?" a deep voice asked.

"What do you think, Sam? You attacked the vampire while she was still in his arms. You could have at least distracted him before taking the girl," a female voice snapped.

"Hey, a little bump on the head is better than becoming a meal," 'Sam' argued.

"Whatever," the woman said dismissively. "Does Emily know about this?" There was silence. "I take that as a no." The woman sighed. "She should be waking up any minute now." A warm hand brushed a strand of hair away from my face. "Poor thing... I wonder what those leeches did with her family."

Oh no she didn't.

I sat up and grabbed her neck. "Well, for a start, those 'leeches' were my family." She looked at me in shock then at the 'Sam' fellow standing at the door.

"How was I supposed to know? The girl was unconscious! It's not like I'm psychic! It was pure instinct!"

Instinct.

Instinct.

It would be an instinct for Wolves to finish off vampires.

My vision became blurry. I took my hand from the woman's neck and wrapped them around myself. "What have you done with them?"

"I let them off." With that, he left the room.

I held my breathe. I wasn't sure if I could trust him. For all I know--

The woman pulled me into a hug. "It's okay, Sam can be trusted. He may be a jerk but you can trust him. Here," she handed me a phone. "You can call your family and let them know that there was a slight misunderstanding. The only reason the Pack attacked your family was because they thought that you were a meal and vampires are not welcome here in La Push. And I'm Bethany Black, by the way, feel free to call me Beth though..."

She seems nice enough. "I'm--"

"Isabella. I know, my brother works at your school. He told me that he invited you to Jacob's party."

"Actually, it's Bella and he did invite me to his nephew's party."

Jules, it's Bella, there was a slight misunderstanding... Er, tell you about it later when I get home. Just wanted to let you know that I'm safe and there's nothing to worry about. I'll be home at six fifteen sharp, I swear, I text him and his reply comes almost immediately.

K. I trust you can take care of yourself.

I smiled at the text then gave Beth the phone. She tossed it aside and took my hand. "Come on then, let's go meet Jake."
