Author's Note: So, here is the next installment of Breathless Treasure - chapter twenty-two. I do apologize for the lateness of this chapter. I just didn't know how to start it or even what to put to tell you the truth. There is a new poll on my profile. It'll help me with my story. Remember, if anyone has any ideas, please leave me some lovely reviews. Anyways, here is the chapter. Enjoy!
And it's finally the treasure I've been waiting for.

I wasn't sure what was going on right now but Tanya was acting really strange. The last time I saw her, she ran me out of the house like she didn't even know me. I could feel her slipping further and further away from me and I couldn't really understand what was going on. It was like she wasn't my imprint anymore. What was going on right now?
"Get away from me, you stupid mutt!"
"Tanya, I-"
"How do you know my name?!" she screeched.
I had found out that she wasn't Tanya. Apparently, she was some other vampire that looked like her, and she had enjoyed seeing me in absolute pain.
"Jacob?"
I turned my head and saw Nessie. And there it was. Instant attraction. She was the gravity that held me down to the ground.
Oh fuck! Could things get any worse than they were right now? Did I just imprint on Bella's and Edward's daughter just now?

I frowned, not even sure why Jacob was even looking at me like that. I was completely baffled right now and worried for him. I could tell that lately things weren't good for him and Tanya, especially since she up and left from what I heard. He sure was cute, though? What am I even thinking?
"Jacob?"
"Huh? What?"
"Are you alright? You're looking at me weird. Do I have something on my face or do you have problems right now?" I asked in a teasing voice as I looked over at him.
"I'm fine," he said as he moved a little closer to me. "I just realized something."
"What's that?"
"I just realized who my imprint is," he said as he looked at me intently.
"Of course. It's Tanya. You have to go after h-"
"It's not Tanya, Nessie," he told me as he took another step towards me, a smile on his face like he just realized something. "I don't know how or why I didn't realize it, either."
"If it's not Tanya, who is it?"
"You. Nessie, it's you."
I gulped as my eyes locked on his for the first time. When I looked into his eyes, I had a feeling he was right, but...I was with Landon, and I was in love with him.
"No. You're lying."
"I wouldn't lie to you about this, Nessie," he told me as he stepped forward, making me bump back against a tree when I was trying to leave.
I know he wouldn't but this was something I wasn't expecting to hear. "But I'm with Landon."
"I know this. I'm not telling you to dump him for me but in the long run, it was always to be us."
Oh boy, why did this have to happen of all times.

Goodness, Amethyst was so gorgeous, and she was mine. No one could have her no matter what. I would fight to the death for my precious half breed that was more than my girlfriend. Hell, I hadn't even asked her to be my girl but she was. I just needed to tell her. I just wanted her to understand that she meant more to me than just a booty call.
"You really want to bury...yourself in...me?" she squeaked as she blinked, her eyes staring at me when everything registered through her head.
I was a guy, so yes, of course that's what I wanted. Amethyst was more than sex and I hoped to God that she understood that as well.
I got as close to her as I could where we were chest to chest. "I really do but I also don't want you to lose your virginity out here in the woods, honey."
"We can if that's what you really want."
I cupped her hands with both of my hands, pressing my forehead right against her own, looking into those beautiful blue and green, tinted purple eyes. I never knew how lucky I was until the very moment when she had moved away with her family.
"I may want you really bad but there's no way in hell we are doing it against a bark tree. I want your first time with me to be beyond special."
"Oh, Riley," she breathed against my lips.
"Yeah, I know. I'm pretty amazin', aren't I?"
She laughed softly and what beautiful music that was. I could listen to that sound all day long if I could. Before I knew it, she was fusing her mouth right against mine.

I was a mess right now and I didn't know what to do with myself. I was in too much agonizing pain. There really wasn't anything that I or anyone could really do. When Renesmee had asked what was going on, I had run off because I didn't want to mess up her life.
My whole pack thought that I was losing my mind but I would never want to condemn anyone to this lifestyle. Besides, she was already involved with Landon Cheney, and the two had pretty much grown up together.
"Oh please... you haven't even given her a chance with you!"
I turned my head to see Leah there and I let my shoulders drop. She always let me have it when I needed it, but there were times when I wished she would stick with Sam twenty-four seven because it would save me from getting my ear chewed off. Did that make any sense?
"Oh please! Without me around, you would even be worse than what you are now," Leah said with a huff as she shook her head. "And I may love Sam but that's just too much time with my mate."
"And what the hell do you expect me to do, then?"
"Did you ever think that there's a huge possibility that she might want to be with you as well, Jake?" Leah asked with a tight smile on her face.
"I'm not trying to go through the same damn thing all over again I had to endure with Bella and Edward, Leah. I can't handle it again. I just can't."
"Did you happen to think that maybe Renesmee might have two mates?"
"Two mates?! Are you out of your fuckin' mind, Leah?"
"No. I mean, don't you remember the female wolf that had a human male and a male wolf for two mates?" Leah reminded me with a grin on her face. "And now, the three of them have three kids. As far as I know, things are really well right now."
"That's just one couple, Leah, and Bella and Edward, along with the whole family is going to flip out when they find out what I did."
"They might but they also know that you have no control in how it happens. You were with Tanya at first, and then, it just kind of happened, Jake."
I knew she was right but I didn't like it at all. I hated that everyone's lives, especially Renesmee's, Landon's, and mine were just about to get a whole lot stranger. Although, it might change for the best. One could only hope for the better outcome.

Oh man, things were really different when I was around Jacob, but I couldn't figure it out. He wouldn't come to the house anymore and I just could not figure it out. Things got even weirder when I was around both Jacob and Landon. My whole body got hot and tight. It just didn't make any sense.
"I don't know how to explain it, Amethyst." I frowned as I shook my head in aggravation. "He was in love with my mom for years. I'm with Landon. I should not be feeling this way. What's wrong with me?"
Amethyst giggled where I frowned. "Renesmee, are you that blind? Have you seen Jacob and that body of his that he owns?"
I felt myself getting jealous when Amethyst stated that because I didn't want anyone staring at him like that. The mere idea of girls staring at that perfect body made me insanely jealous. Jacob was attractive. He was muscular, fit, and just so perfect.
Then, there was Landon. He wasn't as muscular as Jacob but he was mine. I couldn't give him up. I just couldn't give him up no matter what.
"It's more than an attraction, Amethyst."
Amethyst looked at me before a smile broke free across her face. "Renesmee, did Jacob Black imprint on you?"
"Imprint? What the hell is that? Is it a mark or something?"
"Oh lord, let me tell you a tale on how it all began, Renesmee..."
