Jacob's POV:
Alice and Esme finished all the plans by morning and showed them to Emily to get an approval, and then Emily told us. Esme and Emmett went back to my place to started getting the venue ready, and they had been gone all day. Alice told us that she'd run to my house and Bella's house quickly to get her bags packed and also said she wouldn't pry in on anything. While she was gone, the guys pulled me away to talk about my bachelor party... and in honesty, I didn't want to have one but they were really excited and I didn't want to make them feel bad. I noticed that Emily, Sue and a few other women including Leah surprisingly were sitting with Bella talking to her and asking to see the ring and everything and asking how she felt about the pregnancy. I didn't want to eavesdrop with my hearing but I noticed they Leah was looking Bella and it was making me uncomfortable... it was like she was gonna tear Bella's head off.
"Yea we'll take you out hunting for the night, you haven't gone out in a while," Seth said. I nodded, still keeping an eye on Bella.
"Yea that sounds good." I said. They were all getting excited and continued talking and I looked over, and suddenly Leah stood up looking down at Bella.
"You really don't deserve Jake you know that right Bella?!" She said, loudly.
"Leah..." Emily said.
"No she needs to hear this... she knows she doesn't deserve him, and it was a mistake for him to imprint on her, soon she's gonna get all big and he's not going to be interested in you anymore, I have always wanted to do this with him, and you came in and hurt him while you were dating that tick. It makes me si-"
"Hey! What the hell are you talking about!" I yelled, walking over to where they were, standing in front of Leah towering over her. She smiled up at me.
"Just saying the truth! Your making a big mistake here acting all happy that you're getting married and having babies, you know, we were supposed to get together, when she was dating the tick, we talked all the time, and then she came back when he dumped her."
"Don't ever talk like that ever again about Bella or the babies... I imprinted on her... and we never talked, we said Hi to each other but we never talked... you don't understand the whole story... you would never be able to compare to Bella anyway!" I said, getting really mad, and the guys all walked over standing in front of Bella seeing Leah getting mad.
"See Jake! She's brainwashing you!"
"This isn't acting Leah... this is real life... I imprinted on Bella, were having twins, and were getting married. So how about you stop talking before I kick you-" She cut me off when she grabbed my shirt pulling me down trying to kiss me, and I pulled away easily pushing her across the room. Bella suddenly walked pass the guys towards Leah.
"How dare you try and kiss Jake!" She said, with fire in her eyes and I grabbed her pulling her back in my arms trying to calm her down which was hard with how mad I was right now. Leah had absolute no business saying or accusing any of the things of Bella or Me. I was almost shaking, but even just holding Bella, made me feel better. Leah growled and got up walking towards us and phased trying to reach Bella, and I pushed Bella back with the guys and they put her behind them and I jumped up phasing and we collided and fell down, she walked up to me smiling and I pushed her down bitting her neck bringing her outside so we didn't damage to house and pushed her out and she stood in front of me growling, and I snarled at her baring my teeth. And then she started talking to me telepathically.
"Why are you doing this Jacob? I'm just trying to help you!"
"Help me! What the fuck is wrong with you! Accusing Bella of all those horrible things, you have no right! Me and you would never happen EVER! You can see my thoughts for christ sake, you know exactly how I feel about her and there's nothing you can do to change that!"
"As I said before, she's just brainwashing you!" I growled jumping out her scratching her face, and she yelped out and jumping on me and I bit her back deeply and she cried out, and then I felt someone pull me back and it was Sam. I looked back and he stood in front of her.
"What has gotten into you Leah! You know our most sacred law is to never hurt imprintees, and that includes breaking them apart!"
"I'm sorry Leah, and I know I'm supposed to stick with you, but you're being insane right now," Seth said, standing next to me.
"Your lucky I don't rip your fucking throat out right now!" I said, sneering.
"Jacob stand down, this is enough!" Sam said, walking towards me growling, and I felt the mental pull telling me to stand down and I shook it off.
"No Sam! I'm done taking orders from you! Leah crossed the fucking line!" I growled, standing up to Sam. Suddenly there was this pull and tension between us. I knew exactly what it was. My dad had explained it to me when I was supposed to become chief. There could never be two chiefs in a pack, and I was challenging Sam. He growled snarling at me, and I stood up to him face to face. He lost it and lunged at me trying to get me down, and I pushed him off grabbing his neck putting my paw on his side keeping him down. And just like that, it was over. I was now chief, and everyone felt it. I felt bigger and stronger now. Sam stopped struggling and bowed his head down at me, and I let go of his neck and took my paw off of him. All the guys were gaping at me, and Emily and Sue were gasping. Sam stood up slowly his head still down. Seth was smiling at me and howled before bowing his head at me and then looked up at me again still smiling brightly. I smiled back at him nodding and then turned to Leah who was still lying down, but this time her head was down just like Sam's. I walked over growling down at Leah and she bowed her head even lower to point where her head was on the ground.
"Your lucky that I respect your brother enough to let you stay in the pack... otherwise you would have been out! Don't ever try and pull anything like that ever again or I will kill you! You stay away from Bella and me at all times! Got it! And you're going to apologize to her." She nodded and waited a minute. "NOW!" I yelled, she yelped getting up and unphased into her clothes and walked to Bella looking down.
"I'm sorry Bella..." She said, quietly. Bella scoffed. Leah nodded and ran off into the woods phasing. I let her go not wanting to see her. I looked over at Sam, and he was looking at me.
"I'm sorry Sam, I don't know what happened, it just came over me. It needed to happen... We good?" I asked. He nodded.
"I understand, Emily has been wanting me to stand down anyway... I'm proud of you... we're good." I smiled nodding. The three of us all unphased into our clothes and all the guys ran up to me punching me playfully and jumping me all howling and congratulating me.
"Finally you got the balls to do that!" Paul said. I laughed, and then looked up at Bella who was smiling at me. I pushed through the guys walking up to her and pulled her into to hug her tightly and she hugged me back.
"I'm sorry that Leah said those things," I whispered.
"Jake don't apologize please, it wasn't your fault." She said, back and I nodded. "How does it feel to be Chief Black now?" She said. Me and the guys laughed.
"Weird in a good way." She nodded. I looked over at Emily who was looking at me. I walked over to her giving her a gentle hug.
"Thank you..." She whispered, and I just smiled nodding. Just then Charlie and my dad walked out looking around.
"What's all the commotion about?" Charlie said, but Billy just pushed through Charlie towards me and pulled me down hugging me tightly.
"You have no idea how proud I am of you right now son!" He said, meaningfully. I nodded hugging him back. While Sue was explaining everything to Charlie. Once I let go of my dad Charlie reached out giving me a handshake.
"Good for you kid."
"Thanks Charlie," I said, and walked over to Bella with my arm around her and my hand resting on her hip. And just in time, Alice appeared.
"I got all of Bella's stuff packed, but I'm going to go shopping before the shops close. Ok?" She said, in a rush. Everyone nodded.
"Thank you Alice," Bella said, and Alice nodded before disappearing again. Sue told everyone including the Cullens how I was chief now, and then told Alice when she got back. Esme and Emmett came back around dinner to help make food. We all ate, and I looked over and it looked like a weight had been lifted off him and Emily's shoulders and they enjoyed tonight, laughing and talking. Once the children and elders went to bed, including the imprints, the guys all stayed up late watching a movie. I took Bella to bed, and I fell asleep peacefully that night with Bella in my arms.
