Phase of the Moon


Chapter 50

Quileute island

BPOV

I woke up in an empty bed, my body was covered in a thin layer of sweat. I got out of bed and opened my suitcase, I found a simple red bikini and a white floaty beach dress and headed outside. The island was quiet, apart from the sound of bugs and the waves lapping against the beach. I followed the sound through the trees to the beach and smiled when I saw Jacob sunbathing on the sand. Jake must have known about my presence because a small smile played on his lips. I took a seat next to him and ran my fingers through the sand.

"Where have you been?" Jacob sat up.

"In bed, imagine my disappointment when I woke up and found an empty bed, no husband"

"I was scared of giving you heat stroke" Jacob joked.

"Your loss" I shrugged and stood up pulling my beach dress off.

I peeked a look at Jake who was staring at my body. I had an evil idea. I turned away from him and very slowly undid my bikini top strap and pulled the halter neck strap over my head, leaving me topless. I threw it over my head hoping it would land on Jacob and walked down to the sea. Once I was in deep water I turned back to Jacob who was watching me in awe. I motioned with my finger for him to come and join me, he stood up and ran into the sea, pulling my legs around his waist.

"Isabella Black, that was a very naughty thing you did back there" Jacob smirked. I could feel his arousal on my thigh.

"It worked then" I grinned.

"Depends what you were trying to do" Jacob winked.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him, it was a gentle kiss. I broke away and looked round at the island."So tell me about Quileute island"

"Embry is half Quileute half Hawaiian tribe they own all these islands, Embry's mom came to La Push and got pregnant and when Embry returned here they gave us one of their islands as kind of a peacemaker" Jacob explained.

"Who's Embry's dad?" I asked trying to work it out.

"That remains a mystery, Its one of three possibilities, Levi Uley, Quil Atera Senior or...Billy Black" Jacob didn't want to accept it was his dad.

I gasped "You, Sam or Quil has a half brother?"

"Yep, Embry Call could be my brother, to make things worse, if you do the maths, when Embry's mom got pregnant everyone of them had a wife"

Jacob and I spent the entire day on the beach with Jacob still being about 10 shades darker than me, but I don't think I was going to tan, more like burn. Darkness fell over the island and Jake and I were in the house. Jacob had told me he had planned a surprise so I was getting ready.

"Jake, can you zip me up please?" I asked struggling with the zipper on my dress.

"If you promise I can unzip it later" Jacob whispered into my ear, his hands burnt my skin as he gently, but swiftly did the zipper up caressing my skin more than needed.

I turned and unbuttoned the top buttons of his shirt "As long as you leave this undone"

"Whatever you want" Jacob smirked and pulled me to him kissing me.

I pushed myself away, usually he would ignore my protests but tonight he let go "We're never going to get out of here" I commented.

Jacob sighed and I smirked walking out of the house. Jacob caught up with me, grabbing my waist. I giggled and screamed as Jacob flung me over his shoulder and carried on walking.

"Jacob Black, put me down!" I protested.

"You're ruining your pretty shoes" Jacob chuckled.

I sighed knowing there was no way I was going to win this fight. Jacob was stronger than me even with one arm. He finally set me down when we made it to the beach, the Hawaiian man from the beginning of the honeymoon was waiting on a boat. Jacob lifted me onto the boat and got on himself.

"Where are we going?" I asked taking Jacob's hand.

"The mainland" Jacob smiled.

It only took us a few minutes to cross the waters to the mainland. Jacob jumped off first and lifted me onto the sand. We turned and thanked the Hawaiian man and headed off. Jacob took my hand and led me to a beach restaurant where he had booked a table. It was so cute and romantic, there were only a few other couples in the restaurant and they seemed lost in each other anyway. Jacob pulled out my seat and I sat down taking the menu from the waiter. Jake took the seat opposite me, he didn't even bother looking at the menu instead taking my hand from across the table. The waiter came and took our order. Jacob just ordered 2 steaks, fries, and a lot of side orders. I went for a pasta dish.

"This place is so perfect" I spoke smiling at my husband.

"You're perfect" Jacob answered not taking his eyes from mine or moving his hand from mine.

"Have you ever thought about our future?" I asked.

"Of course I have" Jacob nodded.

I looked down from his loving gaze and stared at the wine in my glass "Have you every thought about what's going to happen when I get older?"

"What do you mean?" Jacob tried to catch my eye contact again.

I avoided it "You're a wolf, frozen in time until you stop phasing"

"Bella" Jacob reached out and I felt a warm finger tilt my chin up, forcing me to meet his gaze "I know age is a sensitive subject, but I'm still aging, just not as obviously as humans and when I stop phasing it will all catch up with me and I will be just like you and like I've said many times, age is just a number"

I smiled "Oh yes, I'm 32"

"I'm 35, there you go" Jacob grinned and winked.

The food was bought over to our table and I had never seen anyone eat so much. I struggled to finish my plate of pasta while Jacob went through a 2 whole steaks, a plate of fries, garlic bread, salad and onion rings and ordered desert.

"How can you eat so much?" I asked rubbing my stuffed stomach.

"I'm a wolf man thing I need a lot of energy" Jacob smirked.

I rolled my eyes at the fact he expected me to accept that as an excuse. Jacob paid for the dinner and we went for a walk down the beach. I took my sandals off as Jacob was right I was ruining them and they were brand new. Jacob sat down and I sat between his legs leaning on his chest running my hands through the sand.

"Are you enjoying yourself, Mrs. Black?" Jacob asked tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

"If I told you I was having the best time of my life, would you believe me?"

"Yes, because I couldn't agree more" Jacob kissed my cheek.

"Jacob, what was it like imprinting on me?" I asked, turning a little so I could see his face better.

"The best feeling ever, knowing that I had a good enough reason to try and make you love me" Jacob smiled.

"How do you know that you imprinted on me?"

"I didn't, Sam kind of helped me realize" Jacob sighed and his arm wrapped around my waist and my hands played with his large hand and fingers "That night when they came back. I just looked into your eyes and saw everything, my life, my future, my existence. I wanted nothing more to hold you and not let you go in that house, but I knew I had to let you go"

I lifted his hand and kissed it "I love this, I love you, I love no one else" I turned and kissed his lips "We have the rest of our lives together"
