Chapter 8: Imprint

Jacob's POV

Something was wrong. Very wrong. I could feel it through the Imprint bond. I shouldn't have left her alone to fend for herself.

I finished in the bathroom as fast as I could. My fear turned into full on panic when I saw the state that Nessie was in and her babies were gone.

"Nessie what happened?!" I was panicking.

My babies! He took them!"

"Who?!"

"He's gone!"

"Where did he go?!"

"He's gone Jacob. He's-"

"Which direction did he go in?!" I started shaking with fury.

"That way," she sobbed.

I ran as fast as I could do so not even caring for human speed right now. I could smell the human that kidnapped the babies. Although they were already several blocks away I could hear the babies crying. I would get them back for Nessie before anything happened to them.

I started running even faster. I could see them now. My body was shaking with rage. I wouldn't be able to retain control of myself much longer. "Let those babies go!"

The man stopped what he was doing and turned to face me. "Who the hell do you think you are telling me what to do?!"

"I know you kidnapped those babies. Now I'm only going to ask you this nicely once. Give those babies back,"

"It's not kidnapping when it's your own kids that you're taking,"

I felt my body freeze. Renesmee was gang raped. That's why she got pregnant. Those were the exact words that Bella had told me.

"Well one of my friends could be their father. We all had our fun with that girl that night,"

Something in me snapped. Rage fuelled my body and caused me to explode. I landed on four paws growling. Teeth bared.

He didn't move a muscle. Fear had replaced all that fake macho bravado he had on before. He didn't know what I was. Only that I was clearly not human. I was going to kill him.

I was only aware of one, well two other things, as I prepared to end him. It was the babies. I had to be careful. I didn't want to hurt them.

Luckily for me my job became a lot easier when he put the two of them down. Then he ran the opposite direction and started screaming for help. I caught up to him in less than half a second. I ripped an arm off. Then the other arm. Then I ripped off each one of his legs. Then I finished him off by ripping his head off.

I walked back to where the babies had been left. They looked at me in awe rather than fear. Aiden reached up toward me and I bent down low enough for him to grab my fur. I felt Owen tug at my fur also. They started giggling.

I started to calm down. I knew that if i could manage to relax just a little bit more that I would be able to shift back and return these two to their mother. So I closed my eyes and just let the calm overcome me. I felt my body change from wolf to human. I put on the extra pair of clothes I had and picked up the two giggling babies.

I hadn't scared these two. That much was clear. They seemed to be more fascinated by me now. I was relieved that they were safe. For reasons that I didn't completely understand I felt very protective of them. Maybe it was because their mother was my imprint and I felt just as protective of her, and by extension her babies also.

Nessie was still crying when we came back. She was in pain and therefore I was to. Her wory turned to relief and shock when she saw us.

Here you go Nessie," I said as I handed Aiden and Owen over to her.

"Oh my God they're okay!" she kissed the two of them over and over again.

"Thank you Jacob. Thank you so much! But how did you get them back?! That guy was so big and-"

"That doesn't matter," I answered quickly. She didn't need to know how I gruesomIy I had just murdered her rapist. "The babies are okay. That's all that matters,"

"Thank you Jacob," she cried as she hugged me. I held onto her tightl. "Thank you so much," she cried.

"How are you feeling Nessie? Are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

She shook her head. "No. I'm okay. He didn't do anything to me,"

"Do you want to go home?"

She took a few deep breaths. I could hear her heart slowing down. "No. I just want to be with you. I feel safe with you. I can't explain it but-oh God I sound so pathetic!"

"Ness look at me," she wiped away her tears. "I don't think you sound pathetic at all. Don't ever be afraid to tell me how you really feel. I won't judge you,"

"Thank you Jacob," she said. "For everything,"

"Why don't we go get something to eat if you're still feeling up to it?"

"That sounds good to me,"

I was happy that she agreed to go eat with me. Even if she said no I would've still found a way to get some food into her. She was so skinny that it scared me. She looked so breakable. It reminded me of how Bella looked when she was pregnant with Nessie.

Carlisle believed that Nessie has been drastically underweight for years. But he also believed that her being pregnant with twins worsened her condition. The babies took up nutrients that she desperately needed. If she were one hundred percent human she would've died. Her vampire genetics were the only reason that she and her babies were still alive. At least that was Carlisle's theory.

Carlisle also believed that she wouldn't last much longer if something didn't change soon and that terrified me. She needed strength. She needed food. But even more importantly she needed to start drinking blood to regain her strength.

We only had one problem. How were we going to get her to drink blood when she didn't even know that vampires existed?
