Isabella's Pov:

My bond with the wolves with confusing, with the rest of my family I had the instinct to bite them and mark them mine, but my venom would kill the wolves. It was an internal battle against myself on not giving in to the instinct. My hand ran absentmindedly over Brady who hadn't left my side since the bond had formed, he'd fallen asleep in wolf form next to me. I was going to see Charlie tomorrow; the wolves were going to tell him everything today and tomorrow I'd confirm it. Then the day after everyone I loved would be at risk. However I'd put my foot down, Seth, Jane and the twins would not be involved in the fight, they would stay and protect the reservation and the rest of the imprints. This meant that Emmett was now paired with Leah and then every group had a wolf with them, this meant communications would be much better too.

'Shoppinggggg' Charlottes voice broke through my worries, I went to decline when she interrupted me with 'you haven't been shopping since you've been turned Isabella. I won't take no for an answer.'

As I looked up at her pouting at me with the rest of the girls behind her I knew I couldn't say no. Debating whether to wake Brady and take him with us or leave him to sleep I slowly rose; this however woke him up and he whined softly. 'If you're coming you need to be human sugar' I told him softly whilst passing him some shorts and a T-shirt. I knew he felt it was safer for me and him if he was in wolf form and I could see the struggle as he tried to convince his wolf to let him shift.

'We're going to be safe sweetheart' I told him as I wandered around the room grabbing things we'd need. This seemed to work as when I next turned to him he was in human form and dressed, he looked frightened and stared at me with distress in his eyes. 'Come here' I held a hand out for him, and he scampered to my side and hid himself slightly behind me. 'Let's get going' I said as I pulled us out of the living room into the dining room.

In here sat everyone I could think of, my mate sat in a conversation with Caius and Peter and for a moment my heart beat again. He was absolutely gorgeous and I could stand here staring at him all day, as he felt my stare he looked up and locked eyes with me. A smile instantly formed on our faces, I sent him as much love as I could and I knew he felt it because he took a slight step back. 'We're going shopping' Charlotte announced just to be greeted with snarls and growls.

'No chance in hell' Jacob said, to which my little puppy yipped at him. You'd have expected them to get in considering the same name but they hated each other.

'It's not safe' Peter spoke up.

'I won't allow it' came from Emmett's mouth, this got some raised eyebrows from the girls.

'Are you sure that's wise?' Aro asked us.

'No' the single word sent a shiver through me, not necessarily a bad one though. I could feel Brady shaking against me and worried he would shift, the kitchen was too small for that so I put a bubble around him to calm him slightly. Then I looked up and locked eyes with the Major. I could feel Izzy wanting to come out the play with him, so I let her.

Izzys Pov:

The change in the room must've been obvious, as a small smirk set on my lips and everyone else quietened down. 'Did you just tell me no Major?' I raised a challenging eyebrow at him. This was the first time we'd officially met and pleasure was rushing through me. In all common sense the Major was technically my mate whilst Jasper was Isabella's and we were all one big mess.

'Izzy' he addressed me. The single word made my breath hitch. I barely registered the fact Brady, a child was next to me. All I wanted to do was leap across the room and claim him, but there was a time and place for that and it was not here.

'You know damn well it is not safe for you to go out alone' he began, a tiny chuckle left me. 'Are you questioning my? Our abilities?' I gestured to the girl behind me. 'Are we not your equals?' I asked taking a step towards him after leaving Brady with Rosalie.

I wasn't threatening to the Major and I knew the effect I was having on him. When I eventually reached him I whispered into his ear 'This will teach you to remember that' and bit into the opposite side of his neck than Isabella had to claim him. He let out a small groan of pleasure. 'See you later' I grinned pushed the girls out of the room with my shield and then left the guys trapped in the room with another shield. As we got further apart the shield would weaken and drop but by that point it wouldn't matter. I smirked to myself before letting Isabella come back.

Isabella's Pov:

Now I just hoped that Jasper was back in control when we got back, what had Izzy got us into. Gradually we all began to giggle, minus Brady who looked out of place but still clung to my side as we ran to the shopping centre.

'We need to find you a nice dress for tomorrow Isa' Rose told me as we entered the first shop, I was a bit confused but just figured it would be for Charlie. Shopping with the girls was a different experience to how it had been shopping with Alice in the past. They allowed me to choose what I wanted and didn't force options on me. However seven stores later It was beginning to lose its appeal, until I locked eyes with the most beautiful green dress, without trying it on I knew I was going to buy this. Rose, Charlotte and the other two wolf girls had wandered off to get Brady and themselves some lunch so it was just me and Leah.

As I was trying on the dress I asked the question that had been on my mind since I'd seen her. 'What happened LeLe?' I saw her face falter a little bit as she debated answering.

'Me and Sam got engaged, three weeks after your disappearance. You know how in love with him I was' she sent me a sad smile, 'we planned the wedding fast and two weeks later we were ready. My family came down, and on the day of our wedding, he met my cousin; Emily' I could tell where this was going and I was angry, but also upset. 'He imprinted on her, everyone knew except me until I walked up the Isle to see him stood next to her rather than waiting for me'

It wasn't his fault, you can't control the imprint, I understood that. 'I'm so sorry sweetheart' I pulled her into a hug and felt her tears fall on my shoulder, we stayed like that for a few minutes before she pulled back. 'You should get that dress Bells' she told me before wandering off to look at a sweater.

With one last glance at myself in it, I unwillingly took the dress of to pay for it.

We met up with the rest of the guys and Brady rushes to my side, ' you good kiddo?' I asked as he nodded into my side. My phone buzzed at that moment, it was a text message from Jacob.

'We need you Bells, he's not taking it aswell as we had hoped. We're at your home. Be quick. Jacob 3'

Fuck, I hadn't really expected Charlie to take it well, but I had hoped he'd be as open minded as I had. 'I've gotta go to Charlie's, I'll catch up with you guys later?' I didn't give them a chance to respond before dashing off with Brady close to my side. I could hear sole of the wolves telling Charlie to breathe as I approached the house and I could also hear how rapid his heartbeat was. I pushed my way into the house and stopped in front of Charlie, Brady had phased and was pacing outside the house worried there was danger.

'Hi dad' I whispered as Charlie took me in.

'Bells' he breathed out before passing out.
