Edward had been in his trailer eating a snack when he noticed Alice, Jasper, Jacob, and Rosalie coming and going with what appeared to be medical supplies. Leah was not coming and going like they were. The mind reader started to grow concerned when Jacob kept coming back out to get rid of blood covered towels. That was a lot of blood and finally he decided to go over and investigate. Nobody noticed that he had snuck inside of Leah's trailer because they were too busy tending to a nearly unconscious and blood covered Leah.

"What happened?" He asked in worry as he pushed his way through the others until he was standing next to the winged woman. It looked like she had been hit by a car or something. The others didn't answer his question and so he decided to ask it again because he wanted answers damn it and he was going to get them. "Someone better tell me something! Does this have to do with whatever secret you have all been keeping from me? Does it have something to do with that Embry guy that nobody seems to want to talk about?"

Jasper stepped forward with his hands clasped behind his back. He was trying to remain calm because he knew getting upset would do no good. "Edward now is not the time to talk about this-"

Leah cut him off, which surprised everyone considering she hated it when Embry's name was brought up. "No Jasper, he has a right to know since this kind of concerns him. He needs to know what happened and I should have told him sooner, but you all know how hard it is for me to think or talk about Em. Do you guys think that you can give us a little privacy?"

Jacob did not like the idea of leaving her alone with Edward and it wasn't because he did not trust the mind reader, but rather because he knew this was going to take an emotional toll on her. "Are you sure that's a good idea Leah?"

"It is fine Jake trust me." She told him and after a moment he shrugged before leading the others out of the trailer. They would be back in a little while to finish taking care of her injuries. As soon as she was sure they were gone she looked at Edward and took a deep breath trying to gather her nerve. It would be better to just say what she had to say and be done with it so that she could then deal with the pain memories of Embry always brought. "Embry, like us, was different and like you he thought of it as a gift and not a curse. I remember times when I would be depressed and he would just hold me in his arms until I felt better. He never pressured me about opening up to him. He was the only man I have ever loved and all he wanted was for me to be happy."

When she paused the bronze haired male took her hand in his. "He sounds like he was a great person. What happened to him?"

Leah felt her bottom lip tremble. "He asked me to marry him and I said yes. We were going to run away together. We both knew that Sam would never let us leave and so we would have to run. We saved our money, what little we had anyways, and it only took a few months' to have everything ready. I was supposed to meet him in the woods, but he never came. I waited until the sun started to rise and still he never showed up. I knew something wasn't right because even if he had gotten cold feet he would have told me. That is the kind of person he was and so I went looking for him. Sam told everyone that he had gotten a call from Embry's sister saying their mother was very sick and so he went home to take care of her, but I knew that was a lie because Embry didn't have a sister and his mother had left him with her parents when he was born. He had never met her.

When I went to his trailer I found a couple spots of blood and a tape recorder in the corner that he must have hidden and turned on. I think he knew something like this was going to happen and he wanted me to know the truth. On the tape was Sam and Embry. Embry told him that we were leaving and Sam slit his throat. He killed him and he probably would have killed me if I wasn't his star. Now I know you are probably wondering why I didn't go to the police. I was planning to do exactly that with the tape, but I found the inside of my trailer had been torn apart. Someone had been searching for something and they got it because the tape was gone. Even if I go to the police now without proof it is my word against his and who are they going to believe?"

He frowned after she was finished speaking. "Did Sam do this to you? Did he find out about you going to the doctors? I could only get bits and pieces from the others minds because their thoughts were racing."

Leah nodded and winced at the pain that one movement had caused. "It was his warning about what would happen if I do anything like that again or if I try to leave. He will only put up with so much and like I mentioned before he won't kill me because I'm the star of his fucked up show, but he will hurt those I care about and that includes you. You should stay away from me Edward if you value your life. Everything I have ever loved I destroyed and I don't want that to happen to you."

Edward felt his eyes widen in surprise. "You love me?"

TBC…

AN: This is just a short chapter since I feel like crap, but I do hope that you all liked it. Now you know a little bit of what happened to Embry and Leah loves Edward. Do you think she meant to say it or will she deny it? I would love to hear your thoughts.
