Okay I know we all want to see the wedding but I don't want to forget about Jake, and it actually is fun to write about him, so here goes. For future refrence, the white haired one, is Aro. I couldn't find a way to make his name fit into the story. All write another chapter if I get any reviews, any at all please! (Thanks for reviewing if you did.) Enjoy!
Chapter 17: (Jakes POV)
I clawed at my nose with one paw. The scent burned stronger than ever in the leech filled room .They couldn't have been lying when the order was sent for everyone of the, what did they call themselves volturi? vultures more like it, to come to this room.
I was tensed, in wolf form, but I let my human mind control my actions, if I fought this many I would die, there were so many of them!
A brave one, who seemed to be their leader stepped toward me, they obviously knew what I was. I wonder if they would put two and two together with what had happened to the newborn army earlier this year. The old white parasite raised a hand toward me in shockingly unhurried movements. He pressed his hand lightly to my paw. The touch burned slightly, at the feel of a natural enemy, but he did not flinch back as I did. His eyes were simply closed in deep concentration.
If I were in my human body I would have screamed, but all that escaped was a yelp that rolled into a low growl. Why the hell was this leech touching me?!
"No," the strange creature gasped, turning to face his, his what, army? I suppose. "I don not believe it," he muttered to himself, then he unnecessarily raised his voice speaking to the rest of them. "This wolf, Jacob they call him, he knows the Cullen's, he's is here as a sort of deal with them. He knows Bella…"
I listened in horror as the leech roughly recited everything about myself everything I had ever known. What the hell was going on did he read my past or something? I growled again louder this time, gaining some attention. The white one brushed his icy fingers through my fur one more time I flinched but controlled myself as he spoke.
"I read minds, everything you have ever thought; similar to one of the Cullen's I believe you know him?" I was shocked but nodded in assent. That explained a lot, though it did not take the horror out of the fact that twice I had been casually touched by a vampire. As this exchanged occurred to black-haired bloodsuckers, appeared next to the white haired one as everyone began to chatter in the background. I didn't listen.
"Interesting," one of the blackhaired ones said, "Perhaps it knows more information about the Cullen's, perhaps it wants revenge." I growled again I was not an it damn it.
The white haired one grinned, "It does even the odds a bit doesn't it Caius?"
"You can't be serious, it took one of our own!" the other black haired one yelled, "Let's kill it now while we have the chance!"
"Marcus!" the white haired one scolded, "You know you would have done the same were you in its position." Again with be called an it!
The white haired one turned to Caius, "Shall we ask him?"
"I suppose." Marcus grunted in disagreement.
"Very well," the white haired one turned to me. "We are giving you an option, please note how easily we can and will kill you under the present circumstances. But seeing as you actions place a need for a member of the guard, your choice, simply put, is to join or die."
I though silently. I wanted to go home. But where was home? I'd been gone for so long yet the only two I'd missed had been Bella and I swallowed hard, Edward. Anything for Edward though the wolf. They were right for each other, I had to accept that so why not put myself out of there way and not interfere? I was miserable, but I certainly didn't want death. I truly had nowhere else to go. Perhaps this was an under educated decision, but I nodded in acceptance at the three leeches before me.
Let me know what you think!
