Bella's POV

I awoke feeling warm and safe. I rolled over to find myself wrapped in the arms of a beautiful native woman.

She stirred and blinked a few times. "Good morning," she smiled lazily at me.

I couldn't help but smile in return. "Good morning."

"What happened last night?" I asked after gazing at her for a moment.

Leah pulled away guiltily. "You don't remember?" She asked me sadly, sitting up to distance us even more.

Something inside me tore and I wanted to make her sadness go away so I sat up and wrapped my arms around her. "I remember Leah, I just don't understand." I felt her sinking into my embrace. "One second you were a wolf and now your you, only bigger." She chuckled at that.

"I am not fat." Leah joked and then we were both laughing.

"I'm a werewolf," Leah finally explained and I nodded as I let that sink in.

"Okay." I said after a moment. Leah is a werewolf. I pulled her tighter against me. "Does that mean I have to take you out for walkies every full moon?" I asked and she poked her tongue at me. She had to turn her head to do it because we were spooning and she had her back to me.

"It doesn't work like that," Leah informed me and I nodded again, not particularly interested in the details at this moment.

"Well as long as you don't have fleas I don't mind." She chuckled at that and then we fell into silence. "I"m sorry I jumped you like that last night." I apologised but Leah shook her head and rolled over to face me.

"Don't apologise Bella," Leah insisted, rubbing comforting circles in my back. "Whatever that leech did to you you weren't thinking clearly, if anything I took advantage of you." I was about to protest when Leah continued. "But it's fine, lets not try to place blame okay. You were as cold as ice last night," she changed the subject. "How are you feeling today?"

"Much better." I assured her. "I feel all warm now." I snuggled in closer.

"Good," Leah remarked, stroking my back gently.

I hummed contentedly. "I like being in your arms," I admitted to the werewolf who held me.

"And I like holding you," Leah agreed.

I smiled at her sentiment and looked up to smile at her. "Don't let me go," I begged and Leah leaned down to capture my lips.

"Never." She promised and I lay back with her, enjoying the feeling of being with her and knowing I would do whatever it takes to ensure it never ends.


Authors Note: I couldn't help but add this little bit on the end to turn it into a pairing.
