After our little reunion it was time to get down to business. I clapped my hands than rubbed them together mischievously.
"Alright, now I asked ya'll to come here for a reason. We were able to acquire some information on dear old Icki Vicki." I smiled remembering how we got the information than frowned when I realized he wasn't a good soldier; the information flowed so easily from him. Eh, o well. We'll find more playmates I'm sure.
I continued on, "we had one of Victoria's, um; I guess you could say followers, infiltrate our pack. I wouldn't call the weak, pathetic, waste of existence a soldier; he was too easy to get information out of. He was some how able to get into the mind of one of ours while I was preoccupied having some fun." I slyly winked over toward Pete and Char; they would know what kind of fun I meant.
"This particular vampire was able to control one of our pack-members mind and tried to use him to tear apart the pack. You know, divide and conquer. It obviously didn't work. I was able to reach out and trap him with my shield and let's just say he squealed like the pig he was. He didn't have much information but enough for us to know we have more players in the game and bigger stakes." I smiled imagining the fun I would have when I got my hands on Victoria.
"What had you so preoccupied that you didn't notice right away suga'?" Pete asked.
"Peter, you're so damn nosey. Bella let her emotions get the better of her and was caught off guard," I growled out that part. Damn vampires and wolves are rubbing off on me. "I was thrown from my bike on the way home from a bonfire. No worries, I had my girl fixed. Well, I was taken by several Vampires who apparently didn't know what I was capable of. The pack almost ruined my fun that night but I blocked them off. Izzy has been out to play since."
Char gave me a look and I knew what she was asking. "'Ring around the Rosie's' and 'Humpty Dumpty'. Twice on the latter." I smirked.
I could feel the regret coming off of Jared. I'm assuming it was through the imprint. I really didn't mean to throw that in his face like that.
"Izzy, why can't I feel your emotions?" ahh, jasper finally got around to asking the million dollar question.
"Well, Jasper, on my little vacation I learned a few things and am now able to shut off my emotions, or just block them. Don't worry though I haven't met anyone else who can do that yet." I reassured him. I somehow managed to make my way back over to the pack and was now absentmindedly running my hand through Jared's fur. He didn't seem to mind so I didn't stop, he was gradually calming down. Esme and Carlisle gave me knowing smiles. Ugh fucking parents know everything.
"So sis, who's the mutt?" Ever so subtle Emmett asked earning a smack in the head from Rosalie.
"Jared is my uh, well I'm his um. Crap what the hell! Uh, I'm his imprint? but we are just friends for now. Yea I think that's right?" why did he have to ask such a confusing question. I hope Jared doesn't mind I said for now, I still don't know what the hell he wants from me really. For all I know we will spend the rest of our days as that odd couple who is just friends but never fell in love or had families. Now wouldn't that suck?
"Whoa, darlin', a bit of a warning next time you let your emotions go would be nice." Jasper said as he stumbled from the force of my emotions.
"Sorry Jasper that was an accident." I pulled them back in. Thankfully Jasper didn't say anything about how I was feeling though I did catch him giving Jared a few odd looks.
"Anyway, let's get back to why we are here. Icki Vicki and the southern bitch are teaming up and making an army. They are first going after me and the pack, than the Cullen's than the Volturi. Aro said if I needed back up just let him know who I want. The problem is I don't want to leave them unprotected in Volterra if we take some of the guard. I may just have Jane and Demitri. They were apart of my usual team. Jane would use her power on me and I would project it out while Demitri took care of disposal. It was actually quite fun with Jane around." I smiled remembering the good old days.
I could see Jasper making a silent transition into the major and knew he was strategizing now.
"We should start having training sessions with the wolves so they can learn how to take care of newborns." Jasper than turned to Peter, "captain, I want you to start recruiting. See if you can track down those that have escaped Maria in the past and those who are just willing to fight with us. Carlisle, get in touch with the Denali's, see if they are willing to help. Alice, keep a look out for any unwanted visitors. I know you can't see past the wolves but I'm sure you can see when they plan to attack. Hopefully we will be able to bring the war to our turf. If we start training in the baseball field our scents will be concentrated there enough to bring the bitches to us."
I stepped forward, "just so we are aware there have been a few changes in rankings within the pack. Jake is now Alpha, his Beta is Leah. Also, obviously the whole pack will not be fighting. We need some to stay and protect LaPush and the imprints." I turned back to the major, "major, shall we convene tomorrow night at midnight in the field to begin training?"
Jasper gave a quick glance to the Vampires before giving me a stiff nod in acceptance. After that we all went our separate ways.
I was planning on staying at Lee's house so I went pack to LaPush with the wolves. Jared followed us to Leah's backyard and seemed to have a silent conversation with her.
Before I knew it Jared was Phased and quickly pulling on his shorts while Lee gave me her wolfie smile and ran off. I guess Jared and I did need to talk.
"Izzy, can we talk?" Jared asked me voicing my thoughts. I had to smile at that.
"Yea, I was just thinking that. Look, Jared, I know you didn't want to imprint on me and if it's any consolation I didn't want to cause you any problems. I mean it could've definitely been handled better in the beginning but what's done is done. I think we are doing fine the way we are now, I…" and that was all I got out before I was cut off by his hot firm lips on mine.
Well, he sure has one hell of a way with words.
A/N hope ya'll liked, I had some requests for Izzy and Jared so here you go. I also wanted to tell ya'll I got a new story I am posting strictly based on reviews.
