Catch Me I'm Falling
Estealla..
Chapter Nineteen

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

Jacob's POV

"Jacob wake up!" I heard my dad scream from the next room. My dad wasn't the type to get freaked out easily, I guess it's hard to with a werewolf for a son. My eyes snapped open as I sat up in my bed. "Hurry!" He yelled. I raced into the living room to find him standing there with Embry, who was dripping wet. He looked worried. I looked from my dad to my best friend, hoping for an answer. "It's Trinity." My heart stopped. What was wrong with her? I started to panic. My chest felt heavy, I was worrying and I didn't even know what was going on.

"What? What happened?"

"I don't know, I can't find her she hasn't come home." Embry said, his eyes filling with tears. "Did she come home with you?" He asked, I could hear the worry in his voice. My stomach twisted as I thought of all the things that could have happened to her. My body started to shake. I let her go home alone, I let her walk there and didn't bother to follow. I listened to her and I knew I shouldn't have, my gut told me not too but I did anyway. I shook my head, letting the tears fall freely down my face.

"I let her walk home alone," I said, my voice sounded broken even to me. My kneels were barely holding me up, they were wobbling as I started to sob. I had to clear my head, and think. Where could she be? "She said she was going right home." I could see Embry shaking.

"I phased, I couldn't hear her. No one can."

Trinity's POV

I was lying on the ground, breathing heavily. I was sure my ribs were broken, and all I could taste was blood. At this point I couldn't phase if I wanted too, I was too weak to stand let alone turn into a giant wolf. I heard laughing, but I didn't bother to look up. I already knew who it was. A vampire. Alastair. He sent his lackeys out to find me. Apparently the pack had caught his 'mate' as he liked to refer to her as, and killed her. I was his revenge; He knew I was new to the pack, it would hurt them to loose a pack member, but finding out I was also an imprint seemed to make his day. He kicked me in the stomach again. "Take the trash out, I don't know what I want to do with her yet" He said, leaning down to look me in the eye. "It's a shame, you were a pretty little thing" He breathed in, "But you smell horrible- you two" I saw him point across the room. "Make sure she bathes, try and cover that smell"

I started to cry, I didn't care who saw me at this point. I was shaking, but this time it was from sobbing instead of anger. I had no anger left in me, I was weak and barely conscious. "Let me go," I choked out, my voice was raspy. "Please, you don't want to do this" Alastair laughed, squatting down next to me as he ran his hand through my hair.

"You don't know what I want." He growled, grabbed a hunk of hair and pulled hard. I scrambled to get on my feet as he picked me up from hair. He shoved me to my two kidnappers, who I had learned were Bruce and Toby. I landed back on my face before Toby picked me up, throwing me over his shoulder. They took me upstairs, three floors above the room I was originally in. They opened a door revealing a small room, it looked like an apartment with a TV, fridge, couch and a few other items tossed around the floor.

"Home sweet home," Toby laughed, throwing me on the couch. "Wanta beer?" He called over his shoulder to Bruce.

"Yeah," Bruce said, pushing me over and taking a seat on the couch. He turned on the TV and began channel surfing. Toby chucked a beer at him. He picked me up again with one hand, taking a sip of beer with the other.

"Gotta' wash the piggy." He cackled, heading into another room. I didn't want to be alone with any of these men, him especially. "Bosses orders missy," He set me down on the toilet seat, untied my feet and stepped back, crossing one arm over his chest and chugging the rest of his drink. He tossed the can into the sink and bent down, looking me in the eye. "Boss is right, you are a pretty little thing huh?" I wanted to gag at the smell of his breath hitting me. I never liked alcohol, too many bad memories were related to it. "Ya gonna' be a good girl and wash up, or ya gonna try and run?"

I nodded my head fast, "I'll be good," I said. I had been hit enough, I didn't need more to add to my list of injuries. He just sat there looking at me, he didn't speak or move. He didn't even blink. I could hear him breathing heavily.

"Well then git to it!" He yelled with a laugh. This guy was nuts, he was one of those freaks you see on the news for murdering some innocent person. I stood up slowly, waiting for him to leave, he crossed his arms and scratched his chin. There was no way I was going to let him see me. I stepped inside the shower, completely clothed and started to undress. I heard the door open and shut before I peaked out, and put my clothes on the toilet. I washed all of me the best I could, it was hard to stand properly. I was sweaty and covered in blood. I felt disgusting. I washed my entire body, catching some water in my mouth and spitting, hoping to get rid of some of the blood. I kept the water running, hoping he wouldn't come back if he knew I was out.

I rung my hair out and put my clothes on as fast as possible. I regretted looking at myself the second my eyes found the mirror. Blotches of purple, red and black covered my face. I opened my mouth, examining the damage to my teeth. Nothing too bad, none were missing. I turned the water off and limped to the door. I could see Bruce and Toby on the couch. Toby looked up at me with a nasty grin and walked over to me slowly, I guess he didn't see a point in hurrying since I couldn't really move.

The door opened, a few more men walked in. There were about five of them in total, they paid no attention to me, like this was something that happened often and went right for the fridge. I could hear them talking as Toby started to push me down the short hallway and into yet another room. There was a mattress on the floor, it had stains and there were some crushed cans next to it. A lamp was in one corner, the lampshade was bent and broken with a hole in it. He turned it on and sat down on the wooden chair across the room from the mattress. "You should take a nap, gonna' go through hell soon might as well rest up," He smirked, I sat on the bed afraid to go to sleep.

I could taste blood in my mouth again, I felt light headed but tried to fight off the urge to sleep. He sat there watching me, biting his nails. I laid down and shut my eyes, opening them every now and then. He didn't move, he was barely watching me at this point, I felt a little better knowing he was focused on something else. I let my mind wander to Jacob, praying he was out looking for me. I wanted to laugh at the thought, it had to be past midnight. No one knew I was here, no one knew I was missing. I thought of my mom and my brother, I just met them and I was being taken away already. There was an aching in my chest, I started to cry until I finally fell asleep.

I woke up, I wasn't sure how long I had been out but I didn't think it was long. Toby was still in his wooden chair, he had a lighter now that he was flicking on and off. "Sleepin' beauty's awake is she?" He laughed, holding down the lighter, letting the flame wave in front of his eyes. I swallowed the lump in my throat as he got closer. He bent down and flicked the lighter in front of me a few times, then in one quick motion and pressed it on my arm. I screamed, wanting to jump up and move away but I couldn't.

The guys in the living room were talking loud, I heard a few of them run, the door opened and slammed shut. Toby pulled the lighter away and threw it across the room, rolled me over and laughed.

Jacob's POV

We were all outside of Sam's house, Emily was crying and everyone was worried. They tried to calm me down and tell me it was alright, that it wasn't my fault but the sick feeling in my gut told me something was very wrong. We called Charlie, letting him know she was missing and to have the police look for her. We ran through the woods, checking to see if she was there. We looked at the school, the diners, and the shops. She wasn't anywhere. Embry was running up to us, he had gone home to let his mom know we still hadn't found her. She was a mess just like us. He was holding an old t-shirt; It had holes in it and looked like it had been through hell. He shoved it in my hands.

"This is Trinity's, she's worn it loads of times, smell it," I looked him like he had lost his mind, maybe he had, but I did as I was told. I could smell her all over the shirt, I held it close to me, refusing to let go. "If we use our noses, we can pick up on her scent and find her, Jakes her imprint maybe it'll be stronger for him" He said, holding his hand out for the shirt. I gave it back, knowing it was best for her. Everyone passed it around breathing in deep.

"Good job Embry," Sam said putting a hand on his shoulder. "I know this is hard on both of you, it's hard on all of us we all love her," He looked from me to Embry and back again. "Now keep her scent in your mind and lets get to work, where did you see her last?" I nodded, I could do that. I had to. I couldn't let her down again.

I picked up a trail when we got to the last place I had seen her, it was leading us to Embry's house when it stopped. We had a few guys who hadn't phased on the look out around us. It was late, so we didn't think many people would see us anyway but it's better to be safe than sorry. I followed my nose as it lead me down the road, we all picked up speed. We were leaving La Push when I realized why we couldn't find her. She wasn't anywhere near us.

We pushed on, it wasn't long until I could smell her all over the place. There was a building in front of me, she was in there. I knew she was in there. Everyone phased back. We could hear people moving inside. I nodded towards the place, Sam busted the door open. It was pretty empty, but the sound of people was coming from behind the closest door. We all hurried in, the smell of a leech hit me hard. My heart was beating out of my chest as I thought about the things it could have done to her.

"Well, I knew you'd find her fast but this," The leech laughed, there were men on both sides of him. "This was much faster than I was expecting." He walked towards me, flicking his hand at the men. They all left fast; Jared and Quil followed behind them.

"Where is she!" I screamed. He smirked, Sam and Paul had phased.

"She'll be dead soon" He started, Paul leapt for him but was flung back. I could hear him whimper but I was too focused on the blood sucker in front of me to do anything. "A mate for a mate, you killed mine I'll kill yours." His voice was filled with anger. He pulled a picture from the inside of his coat and held it up to me. "YOU KILLED HER!"

I could hear a scream from above me, it was Trinity. Embry looked at me, he knew it was too. He phased with the rest of the guys as I ran upstairs, I could hear them fighting from behind me. I charged up, skipping stairs as I went. I kicked down the door, Quil and Jared were cornering some men. I could smell her near by, I could hear her crying and darted for the door. A man was on top of her, I clenched my jaw shut, my stomach turned as I saw what he was doing and what had been done to her.

I ripped him off of her and threw him into the other room with the guys. "GET RID OF ALL OF THEM" I screamed, Jared picked the guy up with his teeth and threw him in the pile with the rest of the guys. I turned back to Trinity when I heard crunching. She looked weak; She was shaking, and tears were pouring down her swollen face. I scooped her up in my arms, causing her to cry out in pain. I didn't realize I was crying until I saw my tears hit her.

There was silence from the next room, I poked my head out. Both guys were back to their normal selves. I didn't hear anything from down stairs either. Quil ran ahead of us to check the place out. I saw him give us the okay, I pulled Trinity closer to my chest, trying not to hurt her. "He's taken care -" Sam stopped mid sentence and looked at Trinity. "We have to get her to the hospital."
