Embry's POV

I stood there stark still as if my legs were cemented to the ground. She had just kissed me...albeit on the cheek but she kissed me...i stuffed my hand in my pocket quickly fishing out what she had slipped in.

Hey Embry, there's something i gotta show you. Come to my apartment tomorrow around 4 'o'clock...Come alone please.

121 Fleetwood dr apartment 3c

Yours truly,

Abigail Masters

I smiled softly at the note before going home. I laid awake for the rest of the night and most of the day anxiously awaiting 4:00. I left the house around 3:50 and just ran there as if my tail was on fire. I arrived at her door and was about to knock when i heard a voice.

"Did you finish your veggies eli?" that lovely voice called out.

"Yeah Momma, do i get my Supwise now?" a child's voice pleaded.

"It isn't here yet sweetie, mommy's friend is bringing it..." she giggled.

I knocked firmly on the door. Had my imprint gotten pregnant by some other guy when i wasn't around? Just the thought made my body shake.

"Speaking of your gift close your eyes sweetie..." Abigail said as the door was opened. She mouthed a hey to me.

"Am i early?" i asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Nope, have a seat embry.." she smiled as she walked over to the little boy with auburn hair.

I made my way over to couch looking in the mirror seeing the pictures of us...as well as a small photo of what looked like a child but the picture was distorted as if it was an xray...or maybe an ultrasound... Abby slowly walked eli over till he was standing in front of me.

"Okay eli open your eyes." She stated.

The little boy opened his eyes and looked right at me, with eyes that i could swear i've seen before...he looked around confused for a moment.

"Where supwise?" he asked.

"He is your surprise as you are his eli...Embry this is Elijah Michael Call...Eli, this is Embry he's your father..." She calmly said the words that had undone me.

I had a son and he was staring at me with wide eyes.

"Daddy!" he called running over and jumping right onto me as i laughed.

"Hey little guy, i'm glad to finally meet you, have you been being good for momma?" i smiled softly looking up with panicked eyes as abigail had a hand over her mouth as tears welled up in hers.

"Yeah, i been good boy. Where you been dadda? Momma said you was pwotecting da twibe" he asked.

"Yeah your daddy is a powerful spirit warrior! I run around every night fighting the evil cold ones to make sure little boys and girls get to sleep safe and sound.." I smiled rubbing his head.

"This is going so well...i uh... i gotta go to the restroom, excuse me" abby said quickly running to the bathroom.

"Yo Embry! I know you are up there! Come out or i'm coming in!" i heard quill call out.

"Dadda? Who dat?" eli questioned.

"That's one of daddy's friends, you wanna meet him?" i asked with a smile.

He nodded very enthusiastically.

"Yeah Quill i'm upstairs room 3c come on up there's someone i want you to meet!" i hollered down as quill ran inside and moments later the door opened up as abby came out of her room.

"You," she stated.

"You," Quill replied "Embry who's the kid?"

"Quill this is my son Elijah...Eli this is my bestest friend Quill," I smiled.

"Hi Quill, my daddy says you and him fight the monstews, Dat twue?" eli asked wide eyed.

"Psh, fight? We rock their worlds, there is no monster around that can stand up to your father and me," Quil smirked in his best superhero pose.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"Hey abby there's something i gotta tell you, is it alright if quill watches eli for a moment while we go outside?" i asked nervously.

"Sure i guess...Quill have you ever babysat a child before?" she interrogated as he threw me a look.

"Yeah, i babysit for a friend of ours every other day, the little girl is like my whole world. 'Sides if anything happened to eli Embry would kill me.." Quill chuckled as me and abby went outside.

"Where are we going?" she asked as i led her into the woods.

"Promise you won't freak out?" I sighed looking over at her.

"Embry it takes a lot to get me to freak out..." She said

I slowly removed my shorts as she covered her eyes.

"Embry what the hell. Why Are you undressing?" she questioned.

"My mother will kill me if i rip up another pair of shorts..." i sighed as i finally got the shorts and shirt off "open your eyes and don't blink,"

I took a few deep breaths as fire went through my veins before my body exploded into fur.

Jesus embry, did you lose your cool or something?

No, i'm showing abby the truth...

Who said you could expose the secret!

Shut up Sam! She is my imprint so i'm gonna tell her

"Jesus christ!" she yelled taking a step back "E-Embry is that really you?"

I nodded my big head and laid down. She slowly made her way over and rubbed my ear gently as i nuzzled my head into her touch.

"I had a feeling this is what you were doing embry," Quil said with eli on his back.

"Eli sweetie come to mama," abby smiled as eli got down from quills back and ran over.

"Where dadda?" he asked worriedly.

"This is daddy, your daddy becomes a giant wolf. How neat is that?" she smirked.

"Whoa...Cool!" he smiled petting me "Do you turn into a wolfie too quill?"

"Yeah, me and all of your daddy's friends do, wanna see?" Quill stated.

"Yeah!" Eli exclaimed.

Quill took a few steps behind a tree and set his shorts on the branch before phasing and walking out beside me.

Sup,

Not much enjoying the ear rub?

Its heaven

Both our heads perked up as a scent washed on the breeze.

embry ! Quill! Leach inbound!

I quickly phased out "Abby grab eli and hop on my back we gotta run!"

"Whats going on?" She asked as quill began growling at the bushes.

"Looks like da wolf found its mate, how adorable..." the leach stated walking out of the bushes.

I phased in an instant tackling the creature to the ground.

Abby's POV

First i introduce embry to his son, then embry brings a friend over and now there's a strangely attractive man standing in front of us before embry tackled him to the ground as a giant wolf.

"It's alright Abigail, you and eli are safe, we got you.." a Tall man said walking out of the bushes in just a pair of cut offs.

"Who are you?" i asked holding eli to my side.

"I'm Sam Uley, i'm a friend of embry's...let's get you and eli a bag of stuff, that leach brought friends and we need you two someplace safe..." he said walking closer to us.

"Why isn't my home safe?" I quirried.

"It's outside our patrol route... we can't guarantee your safety out here... come on my wife is making Muffins, i'm sure eli would love one wouldn't you little guy?" he asked.

"How do you know our names?" I questioned.

"It's the pack mind, Everything embry thinks we can hear and vice versa...The leach is giving them the run around, sam we gotta hurry," Quill said

I quickly ran upstairs with eli as we both packed a bag of the essentials as a two-door sedan pulled up.

"Is this thing safe?" i asked curiously this looked like an old vw rabbit...

"Yeah the rabbit is safe, i built it myself, now come on Sam and quill had to go back and help embry catch the thing." the guy sighed.

I tossed our bags into the back as eli climbed into the back seat and i got in the front.

"Its nice to finally meet you, I'm Jacob," the driver smiled holding out his hand.

"Abigail, but you already knew that didn't you?" i questioned.

"The whole pack knows both your names..." he chuckled.

"Quill said something similar," I sighed as he drove us to a small quaint house in the woods.

"We are here, you and Eli will be safe until the fights over, i gotta get back." Jacob stated.

"Wait, What fight?" I asked concerned.

"Its nothing, forget i said anything..."Jake paled as he opened the front door where a woman stood at the kitchen counter.

"Is this her?" She asked turning around with a smile on her scarred face.

"Yeah, Abby this is Emily. She is Sam's Wife.." Jake stated introducing us.

"It's a pleasure to meet you abby let me introduce you to the other imprints," She smiled.

"Other imprints?" I pondered curiously.

"Emily..." Jake sighed.

"Relax jake, I got this you go on and kick some newborn rear for us imprints." She giggled.

"Don't let this war take my jared...Please jake tell jared i miss him already..." another girl stated from the living room.

"Will do Kim!" Jake laughed running out.

"What are you girls on about...Imprints? War?" i asked my heart rate rising.

"Abby calm down it's just some vampires wanting to start a fight our boys will take care of them.." Emily stated resting a hand on my arm "i'm guessing embry didn't get a chance to talk to you huh?"

"Talk about what?" i sigh as i lead eli to the living room and set him down with some toys.

"Never Mind dear, embry will tell you when he gets back..." She smiled again.

"You must be abby, i'm Kim Connweller...Jared's Imprint," Kim interjected holding out her hand.

"Abigail...and this is Eli.." I smiled rustling eli's hair.

"Does embry know you have a son?" Kim asked.

"Is he ok with it?" Emily tacked on.

"Why wouldn't he be? Eli is Embry's son after all.." I replied.

"You knew embry before the phase?" Emily questioned.

"We uh... we dated before he phased but he broke up with me about two years ago... Maybe 7-8 months before eli was born..." I sighed.

"Did he know?" Kim interrogated.

"No he didn't...i tried to tell him several times over the years but he ignored my calls or told me in not so kind words to shove it..." i whimpered.

"That's it! No muffins for Embry for a week," Emily growled.
