BLOODWIND: A SOUL'S WORTH

CHAPTER FIVE

LEAH POV

His ignoring me. My imprint is ignoring me. Now I finally understand what Sam meant. I can fully forgive him now even Emily. I finally get it. Yet his ignoring me, well stand to reason he doesn't know me, but he barley glanced in my direction since we approached him. Then again, he seems quite adamant to finding the youngest of their group. We were headed towards the food stalls "EEEEEK CHINESE!", her voice carried through the crowd Leati and Kess. Looked at each other smiled and headed towards the voice. I had to swallow a growl building in my throat.

She was Jacobs imprint no threat. We finally found her jumping up and down her two "brothers" smiling next to her as she ordered several things. Without even turning she asked my imprint and Kess if they wanted something and that there was Indian food further down. Eventually the whole group and pack met up each with respective imprint on the side. Pauls imprint seemed to also be avoiding him but in a slight tactful manner. In fact, when I look around it looks as if they all avoiding us they bought us food and such and are talking to us yet they avoiding us in a sense. I wonder if it's a mafia thing, oh yeah, their mafia well this complicates thing. I wonder if anyone else remembered that or are they to enamoured by their new imprints. Mine was handsome I'll give him that his built like the male wolves has an interesting tattoo. I can see he has a caring nature and seems calm yet bold. He was laughing with Pauls imprint.

I know I'm probably paranoid but she looks like the sun in the group everyone seems to gravitate towards her smiling laughing even I'll admit smiling when she does. She made sure everyone felt included even Sam smiled in her direction she made sure everyone was ok. She came off as immature but there's something else there. "So Leah wana come?" I shook my head as my imprint looked at me eyes expectant. I didn't remember how to breath "Dude I think you petrified her" then I remembered "Umm sure".

The girl named El looked at me with a smile tugging at her mouth "You have no idea what you agreed to do you?" I felt my face heat up. Well heat up more than usual she laughed and winked at me "We having a party at our house later tonight as a get to know everyone event you know so Monday won't be to awkward. We already spoke to most of the high school attendees while getting some food." With that explanation, she turned towards her other siblings and animatedly began the party planning. They are ignoring all of us. Paul was pacing unhappy of the day's events each of our imprints were carefully avoiding us in such a way that we never got to be alone with them or have a full conversation. IT could be a mafia thing. The reaction I got was downright funny. As if a light bulb had been switched on in dark room.

I forgot about that. That changes things. Seth now puffed out air dreaming. The blonde ignored him but he got further than anyone and got 30 minutes of her undivided attention. She was guarded in those minutes and mainly steered the conversation about him. As soon as she saw a chance to escape she took it. It's too much of a risk. Sam spoke now I nearly bit into was he trying to steal my one piece of happiness? No Leah I'm NOT. Stupid wolf brain. They are mafia they are constantly in the lime light people are always coming after them even now there 3 new residence in forks renting motels want to bet they here for vacation? That's why they ignoring us they are protecting us. We all snorted at Seth's love filled voice No I'm serious think about it. People are out to get them their famous. People would kill us to get to them you know cops might start digging in our lives and all that... If you took Seth's excited voice out you could see he made sense.

Duh I'm like the smartest in the pack. So, in their eyes we are liabilities. Ignoring my brothers comment. It all made sense now why they were ignoring us. I felt a lump in my throat, my 2nd chance happens to be another impossible love. Leah… I didn't even wait for Sam to finish I ran out pushing my wolf body as best as I could… I couldn't believe it. Am I not meant to be happy? What's wrong with me. I let out a heart-breaking howl into the night. It just wasn't fair.

The party was well wow is the only word that came to mind and it was all teenager's music was loud enough that it didn't overload our senses. Still was actually a good vibe people were dancing eating having fun. It looked like there wasn't that much alcohol I could still smell it but it wasn't thick the food smelt divine and the decorations. Even though I'm still upset I wouldn't pass up the chance to see him again.

2 hours and we haven't seen any of them at all we looked all over. Some of the rooms were locked I'm assuming that's their bedrooms and what not we were now in the west of the castle? Any way we came to two huge double doors with four guards two at each post staring each other. The on the left seemed nervous of those on the right noticeably so, and when I looked to the right I could see and feel why. The aura the letting out screamed bloodlust. They were intimidating figures; their eyes were the most striking yellow they looked at the other guys as if they were a meal waiting to happen. They looked at us licking their red lips I couldn't help but shudder. The way they looked at us promised death.

"You not supposed to be here party upstairs" the left-hand guys spoke to us a in a heavy french. Finally, being able to pull my eyes away from them I looked at them "S-sorry we just looking for the owners wanted to say hi" the man was 6.7 broad shoulders and chest he looked to have some sort of cross on his neck he was wearing a black suit with a red shirt two buttons from his neck undone showing off his dark chest hair. He was cute in a Johnny Depp kinda way. "They in meeting leave now!". Just as we about to leave Leati comes opens the door to let out a port man short maybe 5.5 his arms were thick and by god he was hairy he seemed to be transfixed by Elrica she was smiling at him and letting out soft angelic like giggles.

"M. Delva. Vous savez je ne peux que penser. Que nos deux empires fera affaires merveilleux ensemble." She purred into his ear "Mon Miss Corvinus que je crois que nous allons" she then gave him a dazzling smile before turning to us. She smiled tight lipped in my direction "Comme vous le savez nous avons un parti escalier et nous être grossier à nos invités, je l'espère, que vous arriverez à mon dîner de fête lors de la prochaine pleine lune ?" "Comment pourrais-je résister une telle invitation enchanteresse ?" his smile was like he wanted to eat her whole I could see Paul was eyeing the man as he kissed her hand and turned to his two scardey cats "laisse aller est la voiture prête ?" Oui sir" the dirty tall blonde replied ' "s'il vous plaît permettre à mes gardes pour vous montrer la façon dont on ne voudrait pas vous égarer serions-nous maintenant ?" Leati's voice was cold and carried a threat. I don't know what they said but all I know the fat man stiffened and nod his head soon the four guards left and went down a down a dark corridor.

As I look back Lee and El are having a conversation with their eyes. Wait so if there here where? Soon as the though was finished a wall on our right opened showing the rest of the family. They didn't seem surprised to see us and simply all turned to us. Kess looked at Jacob smiling "Looking for me" she then grabbed him and walked off soon one by one they were each taken by their imprints I wonder- "So you wana go upstairs" he smiled at me his eyes twinkling and all I could do was nod. All previous thoughts lost as his voice vibrated through me. For a long time, I felt at peace for a long time I was finally happy warm and for some reason I knew it was just for a moment.
