Bella Black Chapter 3 Council
Sam and I walked to the small house on the corner, that we used for council meetings. I wanted to talk to Edward and get to know him better, but Sam said we should talk to the elders first because I imprinted on a vampire. Therefore, we had to talk to them about the treaty that we've made. The only thing that kept running across my mind was Edward. Sam had said this was how imprinting worked; you always want to be with them and it's almost impossible to be away from them. Wow... I'm really screwed up. Well the faster this is over then the faster I can see Edward. Yeah! We entered the room and the three elders were there already waiting: Quil Ateara, Harry Clearwater, and my father Billy Black. Sam was also part of the circle because he was the Chief. I was supposed to be because of my family line, but I turned it down. I'm now The 2nd in command... the beta as you will (lol bellas word for Jacob carrying on). We took our seats and the meeting began. Sam started, "Okay, another member of the pack has imprinted... our dear Bella." My dad looked at me with wide, proud eyes. He won't be so proud when he knows who. Then I started to explain, "Yep, I finally found my soul mate. And he's… um..." I didn't know how to say it. "A vampire". All their eyes bugged out as their jaws dropped to the floor. "Umm... w-well I don't know w-what to s-say." Quil was stuttering. Well it was shocking. Who else ever imprinted on a vampire?! Sam started explaining the treaty and how they said they wouldn't attack on each other's land. "Well that sounds fair, and Bella, congrats on finding your soul mate! He's still perfect for you even though he's a vampire, so don't be so shy about it." Quil spoke with a little laugh. "So this meeting is at an official close, Bella, I want you to bring Edward home so I can meet him. You're sure it's safe?" My dad asked. "Absolutely." Sam answered. Then we all got up and left, with me going to Forks in hunt for Edward and his family.
