Bella's POV

I turned around and came face to face with… Paul. "What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I need to talk to you." He told me

"Well I don't want to talk to you. You don't get to treat me like shit and then come and talk to me okay?" I said as I tried to unlock my door. He grabbed my arms and turned me and then pinned me to the door. "Look Bella. I came here to warn you about something. Josh is not a good guy and I know you're only going out with him to prove to yourself that you don't feel anything for me. But I know how you feel princess. I know. I feel the pull too, the one I know you felt at the beach. Josh is a wolf from the Makah reservation and he knows about imprinting, he's using you to get back to me cause he knows I imprinted on you. I don't want you to get hurt Bella." by the end of his little speech he was whispering and without realizing we had moved in closer to each other. All I had to lean up and our lips would touch and I really wanted to.

"You hurt me though" I whispered. His eyes were staring deep into my soul and I was frozen. I couldn't move even if I wanted to. "I know" he whispered back. "It hurts Paul. I don't think I can let you into my life." I was about to turn away when Paul started to lean in closer. I wanted to kiss him. I really did but I knew that if he kissed me I would never be able to find myself. I needed to do that before I could do anything stupid, like make out with Paul. "Don't" I said. I was no longer whispering and that made Paul freeze. He looked at me and then mumbled "Shit." Just like that, he let me go and ran off. Just before he drove off he turned around and said, "Ask him what he is Bella. Ask him." He drove off into the night and I stood there staring after him.

I walked into the house feeling confused. Why couldn't life be easy? I could've kissed Paul and everything would've been simple! But no I, Isabella Swan am a stubborn little girl. I went upstairs and put my stuff away. I thought about what Paul had just told me. Was josh using me to get to Paul? Was he really a wolf? I knew I couldn't ask him these questions, could I? I went to take a shower because I felt dirty. After showering I put on a black tank top and my shorts and climbed into bed. My last conscious thought was about Paul.

The next day I woke up to Charlie calling my name.

"Dad?" I asked

"Good morning sweetheart. Someone's here to see you." He told me and then walked out. Who wanted to see me so early in the morning? I got up and ran to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, then my hair and took my shorts off to put my jeans on. Whoever wanted to see me wasn't going to see me in my night clothes. I ran downstairs and saw Sam sitting on the couch next to my dad. "Sam?" I called out. He turned around and smiled at me. "Hey Bells." He said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"I needed to talk to you." I looked at my dad and told him, "We'll be in the kitchen dad." He nodded and I walked into the kitchen with Sam following behind.

"Well?" I said once we were sitting around the dining table.

"You met Josh last night" he said. I don't think he was asking me but I nodded.

"And Paul came to talk to you?" this time he was asking me, so once again I nodded.

"Bella you need to be careful with Josh. He's not a good guy." He told me. "I don't want to tell you a lot about him so when he picks you up for your date today ask him who he is and where he's from. Paul wasn't lying when he said Josh might be using you." He looked me in the eyes and said "He doesn't want to see you getting hurt."

"Well Sam as nice as that is, Paul already hurt me and I will not ask Josh anything I don't want to ask him. Paul doesn't like that someone might be interested in me. He thinks since he imprinted on me I belong with him? Well he needs to get his head out of his ass and think again because there is no way I would ever get involved with someone like him. I'm sorry Sam I know you think of him as a brother and stuff but I can't do this." He makes me so angry. Why did Paul make me angry? I don't know, but he does.

"Bella I think you should give Paul a chance. He's a really good guy."

"You should leave." I told Sam. "If you came here to talk to me about Paul or about me going out with Josh today you need to leave." I got up and walked towards the door and opened it for Sam to leave. "Sam's leaving dad." I told Charlie and waited for Sam to leave. Sam looked apologetic but walked out and I slammed the door shut.

I maybe stubborn but I wasn't stupid. There has to be a reason why Sam and Paul both warned me about Josh. I would have to ask him tonight. I went upstairs and did my homework for a couple hours and then came downstairs to cook for Charlie. After I put the food on the table I called Charlie in. We sat down and started eating.

"Hey dad?"

"Yea?" he asked with his mouth full.

"I'm going out tonight with a friend." I told him.

"Okay." He replied and went back to eating his food. Well that was easy. We ate in silence. I loved Charlie cause he didn't ask too many questions. He minded his own business and I minded mine. We finished eating and I put everything away. I was deciding what I should wear when someone texted me,

"Hey sweetheart. It's Josh. I need your address to come pick you up"

I quickly typed my address and sent the text. It was already 5 so that gave me 2 hours before Josh would show up. I decided to straighten my hair and wear my black skinny jeans with my white v-neck. I looked good. I decided to put eyeliner and mascara on as well. I was ready around 6:30 and went to sit with my dad while I waited for Josh. at exactly 7 the bell rang and my dad told me that he was going to answer the door. Two minutes later my dad walks in with Josh and he's smiling. Well I guess whatever Josh said to my dad made him happy. I get up and hug my dad and were out the door. Once were outside Josh says "You look good Bella." I smile and thank him. Honestly he looked good too. He was wearing a fitted black t-shirt and black jeans. He opened the passenger side door of his car for me and I got in. he ran to the other side and got in as well. "Where are we going?" I ask him after 10 minutes. "It's a surprise." He told me.

"Josh seriously? I hate surprises."

"You'll like this once Bella." he continued to drive in silence. What the hell happened to the guy that was kinda sorta flirting with me at the beach yesterday?

He parked in front of a fancy looking restaurant and we got out. We walked in and the waitress led us over to a table. She put the menus down and left. "What are you going to order?" I asked him. "Well I was thinking that both of us could have stake? I heard it's amazing." I think okay sure why the hell not and tell him that's fine. The waitress comes back and Josh tells her what we want. "Josh?"

"Yea?"

"Where are you from? I haven't ever seen you around here so I'm guessing you aren't from here."

"I'm from the Makah Reservation."

"Oh isn't Sam's fiancé from there too?"

He looks at me in a weird way and then replies, "Yea she's actually a relative so I'm staying at her house right now."

"Is that how you know Sam and Paul and the rest of the guys?"

"No" he replied curtly.

"Then how do you know them?"

"Don't worry about it Bella. It doesn't matter. I didn't bring you here so you could interrogate me."

"Why are you being such an ass? You're the one that wanted to bring me here in the first place." He was seriously pissing me off. I was starting to believe what Paul and Sam were telling me.

"I'm sorry you're right. It's just that I don't know how to act around such a beautiful woman." He took both of my hands in his and looks into my eyes as he says "I have unfinished business with Paul and Sam and I'm sorry if you think I'm being an ass."

I pulled my hands away because I felt uncomfortable. We talked about me for the rest of our meal. "Wanna go to first beach?" Josh asked me as we pulled out of the car park. "Sure." I told him and once again he started talking about me. Why was this guy so interested in what I liked to do? He hasn't said a thing about himself. Soon we were at First beach and Josh parked his car. We got out and I took my shoes off because I wanted to feel the sand between my toes. As we were talking Josh tried to take my hand but I pulled it back. I looked up at him with a questioning gaze and he just smiled and kept walking. "What are you Josh?" I finally asked him the question that had been bugging me since Sam left this morning. "What do you mean Bella? I'm a guy."

"No Josh, ugh forget it." I kept walking and this time Josh grabbed my elbow and pulled me back. He spun me around and looked into my eyes and then my lips. I don't want to kiss him. He started leaning in and I tried to get away from him but his grip was too tight. A second before his lips touched mine I saw him look over my head into the woods and smirk. His lips were hard and all wrong. I tried to push him away again but he wouldn't move and continued to force himself on me. I pushed once again and this time and moved. I opened my eyes to see Paul standing in front of me and Josh on the ground. My lips hurt like hell and I'm sure they were turning purple or something. Paul turned around and grabbed my face with both his hands. "Are you okay Bella? he didn't hurt you did he?" He looked so concerned. When I was about to reply Josh pushed Paul and he fell on me making us both fall onto the ground. He got up and punched Josh in the face so hard that Josh started shaking.

I saw Josh turn into a golden brown wolf and then Paul into a silver one just like from my dream. The Josh wolf attacked the Paul wolf and the Paul wolf fell. It got back up and bit the Josh wolf. The Paul wolf fell down after the Josh wolf kicked it and then it started coming closer to me. I was scared and I think the Paul wolf was unconscious. I started to crawl backwards, keeping my eyes on the wolf. I saw the Josh wolf turn back into Josh and he grabbed me by my hair. "I can see why he wants you. Too bad he won't get you right? You know what? I think I'll let him have you, but only after I get to have my way with you little girl. I've been looking for a way to get back at this asshole for 5 fucking years now and you my dear are the perfect way." He yanked my hair with one hand so that my neck was exposed to him while his other hand ran up and down the side of my body. He then grabbed my waist and pulled me close. "You feel that?" he rubbed something hard against my stomach. I was confused for a second and then realised it's his… Oh my god. "Let me go Josh. Please. I already told you we have nothing going on. I don't even know him. Let me go Josh." I pleaded because I knew where this was going to go. He was going to rape me and then send me back for me to live with whatever he would do to me. "Oh no baby. you think I'll let you go after this little problem?" he rubbed… IT against me again. "You have to take care of that for me. Paul is going to hate himself for not being able to protect you and then well be even. You don't know how long I've waited for this." He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, I started kicking my legs and screaming. He put me down and hit me on the head with what I think was a rock. The last think I remember was Paul moving and trying to get up and then there was darkness and I fainted.
