People do not get red eyes unless it is from irritation or something.

But this man had blood red eyes.

The man in front of me began to chuckle. "Oh love, don't worry; they're just contacts," he said with a smile.

His accent made him more breathtaking and with every step he took towards me, the more captivated I was by his splendor.

I could not help but feel attracted to this man before me, but in the back of my mind I knew he was dangerous.

He finally caught up to me since I was staring at his well structured chest. He squatted down to my eye level and said, "Now, why is a beautiful girl, like you, doing here all alone?"

Danger! Danger! My mind kept telling me, but I answered him with a small tremor in my voice, "I didn't have a great day at school today."

He cocked his head to the side. "What happened, love? You look horrible." He sounded genuinely concerned for me, and then, in a split second I was putty in his hands.

I told him everything that had happened; absolutely everything from what happened on Friday all until now.

And he believed and he said that he knew what it was like.

"You've seen one turn into a wolf too?" I asked him.

He nodded in agreement. "Yes, and you did the right thing, love. Stay away from them. They are monsters- they can kill you."

"Then why do I feel guilty?" I asked and he gently touched my forearm.

He sighed and said, "Well, they were your friends. But they are now monsters; they can cause a great deal of trouble to you."

I was silent. I wanted to change the subject; I wanted to know why he wears contacts.

"I love this color," he stated to me, "I love wearing it."

I raised an eyebrow. How did he know I wanted to ask?

"You were silent, love. And looking at my eyes with your lovely dark eyes, I thought 'well, she is probably curious as to why I have red eyes. So I might as well tell her'."

I nodded my head and looked at my watch. It was a little past six. I needed to get home to start on homework.

I looked up at him and said, "It was great talking to you, more like a relief really, but I have to go."

He gave me a striking smile. "No problem, love. But I never did get your name."

I got up from the rock and said, "Evelyn. What's yours?"

"Hunter. Say, since I was such a relief, how about we meet again, but nearby a beach?"

I thought no, but my mouth said, "Yes that's fine."

"Well then love, how about we meet on Monday around…7 in the evening. How does that sound?"

I smiled. "Great."

I turned and walked back home.

I still felt insecure about him.

But I could not wait to see him.

He is dangerous.

Red eyes are not normal.

I dismissed my thoughts. He said they were contacts.

But why were the hairs of the back of my neck still standing up even after I spoke with him?

As I put the key into the lock, I realized that someone snuck into my house.

They left the door unlocked.

I knew I locked the door this morning.

So did someone break into the house?

Are they still in the house?

I hesitated on opening the door. Maybe if I call Paul and Quil and-

I forgot we're not talking.

Great, that means I have to go in there alone.

I breathed in slowly and then burst into the house.

There were people already in there.

They were all massive and then…

"Evey?"

Kim was standing in front of the staircase that led to my room. I looked around the place again and noticed that all the boys were there- including Embry.

All the guys had their poker faces on; even Embry, but with just looking into his eyes he looked upset.

Panic erupted in my veins; I could feel it travel all over me and send my mind to a breaking point.

Don't panic in front of them- they like the smell of fear.

I tried my utmost hardest to look aggravated at them. "How dare you come into my house?"

Paul began to step closer to me and said, "We need to talk about-"

He abruptly stopped talking and sniffed at the air around me. He immediately pulled back.

"She reeks," he told the boys.

They all turned their burly figures towards me. My façade crumbled to the ground and the dreadfulness in my eyes began to show. "Please," I spoke softly, "please, don't come near me."

Paul and Jared stayed back, but Jacob, Quil, and Embry got closer.

I freaked with their sudden closeness. "Stop!"

Quil turned back towards Paul and Jared. "You're right."

Jacob gave me a puzzling look. "Who were you with Evelyn?"

I began to back up from all of them. "No one. Just a friend."

Embry got a step closer and said, "Evelyn," and I looked into his eyes as he continued, "Who were you with? Just answer the question; you won't get hurt, that I can promise you."

I felt that pull again; every time I see him I feel it.

What the hell is it? I am getting angry at feeling that way when I should be terrified of him.

I moved even farther back.

"Evelyn, believe and trust me."

My heart stopped beating uncontrollably and I felt calm, at peace with myself, and loved.

I looked at the others- Kim by Jared, Paul, Quil, and Jacob.

Then I looked into his eyes and everything made sense now.

I took in a shaky breath. "Okay. I'll trust you."

Embry smiled softly and Quil said, "Finally! Now you two love birds can make up!"

I turned to Quil. "Love birds?"

Quil looked bewildered. "You mean you don't know what we are and our history and the imprinting and-"

"No, of course I know all that! They're all explained in the Quileute Legends, so of course I know! But what do you mean love birds."

Quil gave me an I-can't-believe-you're-smart kind of look and said, "Let me explain. It was painfully obvious you were really into Embry."

I felt my cheeks redden. "Whatever."

But Quil kept right at it. "Like seriously obvious. You always had that twinkle in your eyes every time you saw him-"

"Okay," I was getting a bit more irritated the more he blabbed on about my affections towards Embry.

"So surely you should have noticed that he's loved you all along as well-"

My eyes widened, "What?"

Embry glared menacingly at Quil. "Quil, shut up!"

And he finally stopped his blabbering. "Oh. So you didn't tell her?"

Everyone was quiet and quietly angry at Quil for spilling the beans. Kim slapped him upside the head.

"Thanks Kim," I told her.

She gave me a genuine smile and replied, "No problem."

I began to sniffle. I couldn't help it. I missed Kim and I regret being mean towards her. I ran towards her and we hugged like we've never seen each other in ages. "I'm so sorry!" We both said at the same time.

"I'm sorry for being such a bitch," I said, "but I couldn't help it! I was just so scared Kim!"

"I'm sorry for not telling you sooner! I should have told you I knew you would keep it a secret, but Jared told me not to tell anyone- Oh Evey! I'm sorry! It does seem that Jared's taken over my life! I should have seen it from your perspective! Now I understand! Oh! I'm so sorry!"

Kim and I sounded like blubbering idiots and then we felt another set of arms hug us. We turned to the source and saw Jared. He looked at me and said, "I'm sorry for making you feel that way towards Kim and making you hate me. I never wanted to destroy your friendship."

Kim and I looked at each other and began to cry even harder. Kim told Jared, "Honey, that's so sweet of you!"

"Jared! I'm sorry for calling you a mutt! I never meant any mean word I said! Honest!"

He just smiled. "It's okay."

Then we felt another pair of arms and saw Quil. He shouted, "Aw! Group Hug everybody!"

And what an incredible group hug it was!

"Guys," I wheezed out, "I'm so sorry."

"We love you Evey!" All my friends shouted.

I don't know for how long we were all hugging but I was beginning to feel hot.

"Oh man," I said, "Is the furnace on or what?"

All the boys immediately backed off and Embry came beside me. "Evey, I think I need to explain some things to you."

"Yeah. I think you do too."

He just smiled and I couldn't help but give him a big cheesy smile back. He chuckled.

"Alright guys!" yelled Jacob, "We need to leave the love birds alone!"

"Shut up!" Embry and I yelled at the same time.

Everyone filed out of my house.

"So," he began, "I think it would be easier if we sat down first and if I answered your questions. You already know the legends, so you're familiar with everything."

I nodded in agreement. "Yeah. How about we talk in the kitchen. I'm kind of hungry."

"Yeah, me too."

We headed to the kitchen and I took out a box of cookies. We began to eat.

"So," I started, "you and the rest are werewolves and Sam is the alpha."

Embry raised and eyebrow. "Figured it out that quick huh?"

I shrugged my shoulders. "It made sense. You started to hang out with the gang when we were sophomores."

"True. You're really observant."

"Yeah, so Sam and Emily are imprints the same with Jared and Kim, right?"

"Exactly."

"Hm. Do Jacob and the others have imprints?"

He smiled. "Yeah, Quil imprinted on Clair-"

"Ew! She's just a baby!"

Embry laughed. "Yeah, I know, it was pretty weird when we found out, but right now, Quil is taking care of her like a brother would to his little sister. When they get older hopefully she'll love him more than a brother. For the sake of Quil, ya know? He'll cry his eyes out for days if Clair isn't interested in him."

I laughed. "And Paul?"

"He imprinted on Jake's sister Rachel."

I snickered. "Jake must have been pissed when he found out."

"Tell me about it. He blew a gasket; you could see smoke comin' out of his ears like in the cartoons!"

"So, who did Jake imprint?"

He was pretty quiet. "Well, you know the Cullen's, right?"

I smiled. "Oh yeah! Such nice people, but are they sick? They look pretty pale."

"You remember about the cold ones in the legends?"

"Yeah…."

"Evey, the cold ones are vampires. That's what they are, why they are so pale."

Hunter was pale.

But they didn't have red eyes like Hunter.

"They have golden eyes because they claim to be vegetarians- drink animal blood, not human blood."

My voice began to shake, "And if they drink human blood?"

"They have red eyes."

Holy Shit.

What did I just get myself into?

I tried to change the subject. "Wow. But what about Jake's imprint?"

"Oh so Edward married Bella, She got pregnant, had a weird baby that grows faster than humanly possible- her name is Reneéseme by the way- and he imprinted on her."

I was dumbstruck. "He imprinted on a vampire?"

"Correction: A half vampire."

"Well, I'll be."

This was too much.

Imprinting is such a weird thing.

"Anything else you need to know?" He asked.

"Well, have you imprinted?"

He smiled softly. "Yes, I have."

I cringed. I didn't expect that answer to tear me up inside.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"Well…….what's she like?" I whispered.

He chuckled. "Well, she's special."

I rolled my eyes. "Special? That's it?"

"Alright, alright. She's spunky, kind, sweet, the most gorgeous dark brown eyes I have ever seen, wavy black hair, she's also incredibly sexy, that's for sure." He said with a wink.

I hated that girl already.

"Is she tall?"

He smirked, "Not at all, just fun-sized. She hates it when people call her short."

"Do I know her?"

"Hm…"I knew he was testing my patience, "yes."

"Great for you," I murmured.

He laughed.

"Are you jealous, Evey?"

"No."

"Are you positive?"

"Yes. I'm just angry."

"You know the girl's name, Evey. I think you'd whoop for joy."

"Oh, wow. Great. Okay tell me her name!"

"Her name is Evelyn Sonia Velazquez."

I was silent. I stared at him and he stared back at me with his goofy grin.

"I'm your imprint?"

He came up to me and gave me a chaste kiss on my lips.

"Yes."

I couldn't believe it; Embry just gave me my first kiss. I began to feel dizzy and only heard the faint sounds of Embry calling out my name worriedly.

I had once again fainted in front of Embry Call.

I am such an idiot for not noticing it sooner.
