This chapter is a stretch for me because for the first time I'm writing in a POV that isn't Edward or Bella. I tried to write the next chapter for a while and I've been struggling so I decided to give you this. I hope you enjoy the change of pace.

SethPOV

Why didn't I jump in that car! I should have been the one to go with Bella, and Leah should be here. Leah would know what to do. She would find a way around these ridiculous Alpha commands…she always did. And I know she's having a little problem adjusting up there, even though she won't show it in front of Bella. Damn!

"Yo…Seth!" Crap.

"Yeah Brady?" I turned to see Brady run up from the path and stand behind me near the cliff's edge.

"I got a message from Leah." Brady plopped down next to me and ran his hand through his hair. "She's doing okay, and Beth is…wow, she's a beauty. And she's handling the change even better than Jake did."

"I wish I could see them." It was moments like this that I really hated him and his new commands. Somehow the wording of his command had given Brady and Collin the ability to talk to Leah, but now Sam and I couldn't even phase unless he told us.

"Seth man, I'm sorry. I know this has to be hard for you."

"Brady, taking care of Bella has been my job since Edward left, even though he didn't asked me to, I did it because it was the only way I could help her. Then Beth was born and everything changed, because she had to be kept away from Jake when he got angry. Now I feel so useless, I'm not protecting them, I'm not protecting La Push, I'm just sitting here."

"Seth, Brady!"

"Fuck." We muttered in unison.

Jake made his way up to us and stared down, a weird mix of annoyance and smugness on his face. "Leah looks good, doesn't she Brady?"

I tensed, it had been two weeks since I had seen Leah, and I wasn't allowed to call her. Jake had me on such a tight leash I felt like a damn dog. "I'm going to see my mom." I went to head down to the path when Jake stopped me.

"Wait, there's something you should know. Seeing as you've been finding little loopholes to my rules, I'm going to make it very clear. No one is to phase without my permission and my presence. No one is to speak to Leah, and you cannot say anything to my father."

The weight of the Alpha command knocked me down, and I cursed Jake inwardly for the last part. The first two restrictions were nothing new for me, because I couldn't communicate with Leah in the first place, but not being able to tell Billy killed out last hope. Billy, as Jake's father, was somehow outside the reach of his command in a weird, respect for your elders kind of way, but now that we couldn't tell Billy, we had no way to warn Leah if something was to happen.

I stood up and walked to my mom's house to let her know that Leah was okay, even if I couldn't tell her specifics, she'd know from my smile that her daughter was well.

Okay everyone…there's a little taste of La Push. This chapter was originally written as a little taste of the other side before I put this story on hiatus when I couldn't figure out how to write what was coming up, after taking a break I came back and now have a clear vision for this story that is now close to ending…this is one of my shorter ones, but another baby as it is my first vampy story~
