Chapter 203:

This doesn't make sense. I know for sure he imprinted on Emily, Leah's cousin. It can't be.. me. Oh, maybe I am just a stand in for the real Alegria? But, why?

I asked, "What about Leah?"

He frowned, "what about her? I only dated her for few months in high school. We ended things mutually. She is away for college right now."

I questioned, "you ended things mutually? How mutually? Did you first phase in high school when you were still with her?"

He shook his head, "No. I ended things with her months before I started showing signs to phase. She left the reservation to nursing school at Washington State University. She only comes to visit for holidays due to her class schedule…why? did you hear some things?"

I opened my mouth to say something, and I froze to think things through before saying anything else that would make me even more suspicious. He ended things with her before he phased. Leah is not around.. so if Leah is not around then she isn't going to phase due to her emotional stress from the break up with Sam and the emotional abandonment from her family and community, and the presence of Victoria.

Oh, thank Goodness. Leah is not at Seattle. She won't be triggered by Victoria nor be forced into a vampire by her either. It's great to know because I always felt bad for Leah. Not out of pity, but I actually felt upset for her. She always gets the short end of the stick. It was terrible of how she got screwed over by Sam and Emily, then becoming a shape shifter just to be an odd one in the pack. I never understood why Meyers created her. I thought she was created for Jacob to be an Alpha pair, but when Jacob imprinted on Renesmee, that got thrown out the door. When the series was ended, I felt very unsatisfied for Leah. Many things were not resolved for her, and it was hinted that as long as she shifts, she cant have kids or because she couldn't have kids, she can shift. I didn't like how the pack just keep calling her a bitch and ignore her when she had real concerns about what she is now. I know she was a bit difficult to handle when she first phased, but it doesn't mean that the guys can treat her poorly.

I'm glad..The real Leah is able to escape this fate. Then, it begs to question, is this the real reality of Twilight? What if I know from the books are tweaked to be a book in my reality? Sigh. I don't know. This is way too complicated, and it is making my head hurt. I just know that I am not this reality's version of Alegria, and somehow, I got imprinted on by Sam? Why me of all people?

He said with an edge to it, "you know, I could feel your emotions, so I will ask again. What. Did. You. Hear?"

I said, "I uh..heard..that you ended things badly with Leah..and I thought you were together with Emily, her cousin."

He looked at me with calculating eyes before saying, "I promise you that we ended things on a good note. If you want to know the real reason that we broke up, it was because we were not healthy together. Even though..there was a lot of passion in our relationship, we always fought. Leah is fiery while I am more cool-headed. It just wasn't working out, and I wanted to settle down and start a family after high school. She wanted kids too, but after she set up her career. I respected that, but she wanted to leave the reservation for school. With the distance between us, we knew it wasn't going to work out, so we ended after we talked it out. As in for Emily.. "

I started listening closer to what he was going to say, because like even if he didn't imprint on her, there was no chemistry between them?

He continued, "now you mentioned her, I remember who she is. Leah one time introduced me to her cousin who is her best friend, I think? Emily was very polite and friendly to me, but I just always felt off with her. I didn't think too much about it because I thought it was due to the fact that she was basically a stranger who was overly friendly with me…but ..to hear that you thought I was with her..then she has been saying stuff about me."

He was growling darkly, and I said hurriedly, "we don't know if it was her, Sam. Also, it is what I ..heard... It's fine once they hear you that you are with someone else. The rumors would die down eventually."

My big mouth almost caused this reality's Emily to be in trouble for no reason. I need to be careful with what I say. However, It seemed like he was telling the truth from the tone that he was giving me, but I couldn't 'feel' him like he said he does with me, so I asked, "uh..how come I don't sense your emotions like you do to me?"

He smiled cunningly and said, "it is because we haven't sealed the deal yet."

Oh...…..

I felt rumble of a purr coming from his chest, and he said, "I know you feel ..shy with me, but we'll make you comfortable with us. Hmm, I think within three days, I'll get you to want me just as I want you."

He sniffed my hair and kissed me at my temple. I was confused. He is my imprint, why is he so physically affectionate as a lover?

I asked, "but.."

He echoed, "but..?"

I finished my statement, "why are you..so forward when..I'm not ready for a lover? I thought the wolf are whatever the imprint needs?"

He nodded and said with a sly smile, "that is correct in a normal imprinting situation, but I am Alpha, so the imprint immediately becomes my mate. The spirits won't pair you with me if they knew that you weren't ready for a lover, Alegria.."

Wait..I thought Jacob was meant to be the rightful alpha. I thought Sam was a temporary Alpha until Jacob becomes ready to be Alpha.

He trailed off, "Either way, it was only recently that I officially became the Alpha."

I questioned, "officially?"

He nodded, "Jacob.. He is our newly phased spirit warrior..he was meant to be Alpha since the previous Alpha was his ancestor Ephraim Black, but when Jacob phased few weeks ago, he decided to turn over the Alpha title to me. He is going to focus on being Chief of the tribe."

I asked, "Oh, why?"

He sighed, "I still don't understand..I was hoping that he would take the position from me, but he said I am more suited for the position. He believes he works better as Chief than Alpha. His wolf reluctantly agreed, so it is too late now. That is why I am an official Alpha. Ironically, I immediately found my mate once I accepted the role.."

I nodded mutely as I absorbed all of this new information. So, Jacob refused the Alpha title. Instead of stringing Sam along with a possibility of being Alpha when last minute, he wouldn't be able to due to the imprinting with Renesmee.

Is he still going to imprint Renesmee? I..hope not

I sighed as I laid my head on his chest. He purred that I finally relax myself in his arms.

I asked, "what happened when I passed out?"

He replied honestly, "I carried you in my arms and took you straight to the tribal clinic. The guys were burning the dreaded leech... My wolf and I took pleasure with ripping him to shreds and making him watch his body parts being burned to pieces. I had Sue to look over you once we got to the clinic. She is the head nurse. They are the only ones in the clinic who knows the secret. She fixed you up with my help and gave you medication for the swelling of your leg. It made you go to sleep for another 2 hours, and when I sensed that you were about to wake up from the change of your heart rate, I called for Sue, but Dr. River came instead…As a newly mated wolf, I didn't want him near you no matter."

I nodded. There was a quiet knock at the door, and Sue came in. She gave a small head bow to Sam and Sam nodded in acceptance.

She gave apologetic smile to Sam and said, "Sorry, Alpha. I had a meeting to attend to, so I couldn't come and check on your mate. I know there was a chance that you would reject him, and I am sorry. I won't make the same mistake again."

He grunted. She then glanced at me, and she smiled kindly.

She said, "hello my dear. How are you feeling?"

I smiled back and said, "I feel tired and disoriented, but I don't feel any pain in my leg thankfully."

She nodded and said, "that is great to know. I don't have much time, but we need to discuss about your leg, dear. I have your medications up in front for you to pick up. You'll be in that cast for about 6 to 8 weeks according to how much you heal. I will be checking up on you once a week. I would normally keep you in a clinic to observe you for the first week, but with our unique situation, it would be best for you to go home with Sam. As your mate, he can tend to your needs and keep you off of that leg for the first week. "

He said with a commanding voice, "she'll be going home with me."

Wait a minute. I said with a frown, "uh..I would prefer to be in my own..house."

Not really my house, but I rather be somewhere I feel vaguely familiar with. I may not be this Alegria, but this is her body. Her body would remember, won't it?

He stated, "No, and that is final."

I sighed. There is no point to argue with him at this point. I guess I would be living with him..for now. I will still figure out a way for me to get back to..Alegria's house. I don't want to get attached to Sam only for the real Alegria to come back if she ever going to come back.

However, I said, "Can..we do it only until I heal from my leg?"

He tensed even more and said growling lowly, "No. With the red-headed leech around, I don't want you to be in danger."

I sighed, "How about after my leg is broken and when the ..red-headed leech is dead, I can go home? Or at least discuss what to do after then?"

He stated, "..I can do that. We can talk more what to do after she's dead."

Finally, I got through to him. It felt like I was talking to a wall. Sue let us talk and she eventually cut in and said her goodbyes before leaving the room. Sam gently got up with me still in his arms. Since I was 5 feet tall, I was pretty small in comparison to him. We picked up the crutch, pamplets and medication that was left for When he got outside, there was two guys with a black dodge parked waiting for us.

Sam introduced them to me, "This is Jared, and this is Paul. Thanks for bringing my truck. After I get Alegria home, I need to go on patrol and talk with Jake regarding..Bella."

They both looked at me and at him unsurely. I could tell from their expression that they were asking Sam of why he is talking about patrol so freely from me.

Sam said, "It's okay. She knows. I already told her. I'll tell ya more about it in the pack mind."

Jared was taken back and said "Oh..okay"

He said hello to me, and I said hello shyly to both of them. Paul winked at me, and Sam gave a warning growl at him. He put his hands up and said, "Don't be so uptight, Alpha. I was joking. I know better to go after the Alpha's mate."

Sam was still growling at him as he pulled me a little closer to his chest. Paul sighed and took three steps back.

He said sarcastically, "Is this fine, now?"

Sam nodded stiffly. Paul trying to lighten up the mood, he glanced at me and said smirkingly, "you got yourself a shy mate, Sam."

Jared added, "She is so tiny and cute. I heard some good stuff about her from the elders. She is perfect for you."

Sam hummed and said, "Yup. I am grateful for the spirits for pairing me such a good mate."

I couldn't help but feel extremely guilty. I feel like a fraud. A Fake. This should've been this girl reality's mate not mine..Sam frowned, sensing my emotion, but he didn't comment on it.

I asked, "Can I still go home to pick up some of my stuff?"

Sam nodded and said, "Good idea. Jared, would you mind bringing Kim to my place? Maybe Kim can help Ale to answer some questions regarding being with a wolf from a girl's perspective. I don't think I explained it well for her."

I think he thought my guilt was because I am unsure being in a relationship with him. He isn't totally wrong, but I was more guilty for being someone that I am not.

Jared smiled, "Of course. Kim will be very happy to hear that we have another imprint in the pack. Kim could finally have someone to talk to..So, imma go grab Kim and meet you at your place, Sam?"

Sam nodded as Paul said, "okay, I will go check on Embry and Jacob. They still patrolling around for that red headed leech."

Paul and Jared both left leaving me still in Sam's arms. He didn't look fatigued at all, so it amazes me of his stamina. I felt his bulging abs moving as he carried me. His arms were so thick and muscular. Not too muscular either, but muscular enough that many girls would swoon when they see him. Being in his arms, I notice his smell. He smells like fall spices and mint. His scent calms me down, and I wonder if it is because of the imprinting bond? I didn't realize that I was smelling him when he put me down on the passenger seat to buckle me in his car, he purred.

Oh. Whoops. I froze and he nuzzled me at the cheek. He looked straight in my says and said boldly, "you don't have to be embarrassed with scenting me. It pleases me and my wolf spirit."

He closed the door, and he got on to the driver seat. He held my hand the entire time until we arrived from my place. I really wanted to shake it off, but it felt nice. My hand felt so small in comparison to his huge hand, and I felt that if I try to shrug it off, I will upset him. I didn't mind the small physical contact to be honest.

Sigh.

Is the imprinting getting to my head now?

I asked Sam, "how did you know where I lived?"

He said confusingly, " I was at Grandma Eva's funeral, mate. I didn't know look at you in your eyes at that time, but I did remember seeing you. Chief Billy and I went to visit you at home to give our condolences. Don't you remember?"

I gulped. Shit. I don't have this memory…I said,, "Sorry, I don't..remember much..when I woke up at the meadow. I don't have many memories before then"

Those words have double meaning and since he could sense my emotions, I was very careful with how I worded things. He was quiet for a moment and said kindly, "it's okay, mate. You'll get your memories back. It was a traumatic event for you, but you're safe now. No one can harm you."

I looked at him, and I could tell that it was his wolf speaking through him from the looks of his eyes. I gave him a small smile as he continued to drive through an old pathway to an isolated house. Where this girl and her grandmother lived, it was almost toward the outskirts of the reservation. Once we got to the place, I told Sam "uh…I can stay here in the car, and you go get my stuff? i just have the window down, shout through the window and I can tell you what I need."

He nodded and said, "I can do that."

He got out of the car and went inside the house. Looking at it, I could see it was a house that was passed down to many generations from the outside. It was a three bedroom with two-bathroom house with a front lawn, a small garage and a huge backyard. I vaguely have an idea of how the inside of the house looks like according to this girl's memories. I..just wanted avoid Sam catching on that I am not the real Alegria. Isnt it a cliché thing that for someone who lost their memory, your body would remember where to go even though you may lose your memory?

I shouted out to Sam everything that I needed and with the best of my knowledge, where it should be. I also shouted for him to tell him that in case I forget something, he can take it with me in another luggage. It didn't take that long, but Sam came with two luggage worth of my stuff and put it at the trunk of his car. He was smiling the whole time, so I could visibly see without the imprinting bond, he was very happy that I was going to temporarily (?) live with him as I recover from my broken leg.

I was getting uncomfortable with him calling me by my full name because..the other girl's name is my name too, so it felt like he was calling for her when I am in her body. I was about to ask him to call me by my nickname, but I wasn't so sure. When he starts the car, he sighed and stated simply, "what is it?"

I said hesitantly, " uhh..can you call me, Ale instead of my full name."

He repeated, "Ale?"

I nodded, "y-yeah."

He purred as he rolled my name in his mouth, "Ale.. I like that."

He put the car to drive as he held my hand as we head to his house.
