Bella:

I stood from Paul's lap and began to strip to phase in when Jared's concerned phase stopped me.

"What you doing honey?" he asked cautiously.

"You heard Sam, we gotta go"

"Maybe one of us should just take you home sweetheart" Paul said quickly "It might be too much when you see them"

"No, come on, they need us" I replied simply and headed towards the bushes to finish stripping.

I allowed the wolf to take over my body and smiled when it brought some contentment to my soul. I padded back to the clearing where Paul and Jared were now both waiting. I opened my mind connection to the pack and was suddenly flooded with panicked voices and images.

All three of us took off in the direction of the new pack members and tried not to think about my connection to these wolves. We came to the path at the back of the Clearwater home and found Sam with the two wolves as the rest had school.

'Who're they?' Leah asked Sam cautiously before slinking behind him as a means of protection leaving Seth completely unguarded.

'They are some more of the pack Leah, the silver one is Paul, the Brown one is Jared and the little white one in the middle is our little Bells' – Sam

'Bells?!' Leah spat the name in disgust 'Bella fucking Swan? How the fuck did you phase? Just another way of torturing Jacob?'

'LEAH!' – Sam

'What Sam?! She's not fucking one of us! She's a pale face who needs to fuck off and leave our Rez be!' – Leah

Listening to this bitch who didn't know me really got seething and I stepped in before either Paul or Jared could as all they both saw was red for this girl.

'Actually you fucking bitch, I think you'll find I'm a Quileute by blood, raised here or not'

'You can't suddenly decide you're Quileute Bella! Just leave us all the fuck alone' – Leah

'Maybe you should ask your mom how I'm Quileute. Head home and ask her about your baby sister Kiari. Ask her why I was put up for adoption all because of prejudice old bastards on the Rez!'

I could feel my resolve slipping and backed up between Paul and Jared once more, leaning on Jared for support. I vaguely heard Leah calling me a lying little bitch when Paul showed her the conversation Jared had with Charlie this morning. Safe to say that shut her up.

I looked over to Sam who was now watching me with sympathetic eyes before glaring at Leah.

'Um, Sam? If it's all the same to you I'm gonna head back, the guys should be back from school now and I have dinner to make'

'Okay Bells, can I keep these two? I'm gonna need some help' – Sam

'Yeah, I'll see you guys in a bit' I replied nuzzling both of them gently.

I turned to leave when the sandy coloured wolf caught my eye 'Um, can I come with you Bella?' Seth asked me quietly.

'No you'll fucking stay here, I don't want you near that lying bitch! God knows what else she'd fill your head with!' – Leah

'For God's sake Leah, you just got a confession off the Chief that she's our sister! I for one intend to know her if she wants me to. You can do what you like' – Seth

I looked over to Sam to get some kind of permission before just heading off with the young wolf in tow. He nodded his head in the direction of home and I turned to leave.

'Come on then Seth, I got cookies waiting'

Sam:

'Leah what the fuck is wrong with you!' I growled once Bella had cut both her and Seth off from our connection.

'She is not my sister and she's got you stupid bastards hanging on every word she says!' – Leah

'You seriously need to shut up Leah before I take a chunk of your ass' – Paul

'How can you not understand how hard this is for her? She's just found out she was put up for adoption because she was white!' - Jared

'Look that shit is not my problem. I dunno what she's done to you three but she needs to stay the fuck away from me or there will be some serious problems. I didn't ask for this shit! I don't wanna be a fucking wolf!' – Leah

'Oh really? And any of us did? At least we knew the legends before hand, mildly able to piece together some idea of what happened. Bella didn't have a clue and phased out of the blue.' - Sam

'Look Sam just fuck of with your "sun shines out of Bella's arse speech and tell me how to phase back' – Leah

'We need to head over to mine, let's go' – Sam

We took off towards my house, hoping the quiet would give Leah some time to think about what happened and her words towards Bella. Bella had managed to secure our love for her through the way she immediately took to her role in the pack. Cooking for us, listening to us and generally looking after the pack. She's gonna make a pretty good big sister for Seth.

We found ourselves in the forest behind my house looking through the opened patio doors. The gang were all lounging around in the living room laughing and joking, generally making Seth feel like one of us.

I could smell Bella's cooking and my stomach started to grumble so I turned to Pauland indicated her could go in and see her as he was the most likely to kill Leah. We watched him phase and go in to the living room picking her up and setting her on his lap before ruffling Seth's hair and complimenting him on the speed of the phase back. When we heard him say Bella bribed him with cookies me and Jared couldn't stop the laugh that escaped us.

'Right Leah, looks like Seth has done it already so you need to think of something to calm you down. Your mom maybe, or something you do to relax. While thinking of that think about how you do that in your human form' – Jared

I watched as she tried to think of different things but nothing relaxed her enough to phase back. After three hours of trying I heard the Chief's car pull up and knew we'd need to intercept him to tell him she knew.
