A/N: So more surprises in this as well a bit of cussing. Your review absolutley cracked me up, like seriously. I love them reviews, don't stop please! Oh, and I might have to change the rating becasue I want a little love scene between Mel and Jacob later on, but then again I want to keep this story T-rated. I might just do it as a whole different story and rate that M so you can read it if you want to. Enjoy!

Chapter 23: Oh, hell no!

A domesticated girl, that's all you ask of me
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
The moon's awake now with eyes wide open
My body's craving, so feed the hungry

...

Sitting across the bar, staring right at her prey
It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student

...

There's a she-wolf in your closet
Open up and set her free
There's a she-wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe

'She-Wolf' by Shakira

I stood there in shock and I didn't even realize I was crying until I felt the dampness on my cheeks.

It was just like that one day when I walked in on Sebastian and Lucy.

Why did this always happen to me? Am I not meant to find love?

I repeated my question to Jacob, "Why? Why Jacob?! Are you trying to get back at me or something? What the hell?!"

He started to shake his head while his mouth flapped open and closed like he was trying to find the right words to say.

He hopped off the bed, and with the expertise of a werewolf, he pulled on his jeans in all of two seconds flat.

Jacob walked over to me, "No Mel, you have to realize. I -."

But I raised a hand to him. "Forget it Jake, it's okay. I understand. You don't have to explain anything to me."

I gave Erin one more look and then walked away.

He called after me but I couldn't take it. I took off.

My sisters, seeing me, ran after me and changed along with me as well. We ran into the woods as a family.

When I reached a distance far enough away from Jacob, I stopped.

Breathless, – she was never the one for long distances – Wendy asked me, "Okay, what's going on?"

I shrugged, "Oh nothing really. Just me walking in on Jacob and Erin; no big deal."

They looked at each other with wide eyes, "You sure about that Mel?" Ana asked me.

I whipped my head around to her and glared, "I fucking saw them Ana! Hell yes I'm sure!"

She wasn't even mad at me, "Well I can see you're taking this well."

I ignored her, "Some freaking imprint."

Wendy came over to me and said, "Look, I know it doesn't sound like the best thing because right now you're pissed; but you should just take a few days off, come back and hear his side of the story. Because knowing you, you didn't even give him a chance to say anything. For all you know it could have something like what happened to you. So just cool down and figure everything out later."

There it was, Wendy making sense again. That's when you know that I'm not in my right mind.

Her words made the journey around my brain and I decided to take her advice.

So I told them that the vacation was over and that we're going back to home.

Not to La Push, but back home to Canada. I wanted to be as far away from him right now.

They nodded and went back to pack their and my things. I went and started the long journey to West Canada.

---ONE MONTH LATER---

It's been the longest that Jake and I have been apart. Even when we fought the first time, that was only three weeks.

I felt like something was missing so much to the point where I tried everything to try and fill the void.

I tried picking up multiple hobbies, I tried eating my troubles away too. None of those worked.

Grandma Lee even took me shopping. And not the kind of shopping you would think. It was so awkward… we went to buy toys, if you know what I mean.

I had refused to use them in the beginning but when I tried the first one, I realized that it helped cut some of the edge of the void in my heart.

Then I realized, I was jealous. And I was sexually frustrated.

I was jealous that Erin got to sleep with Jacob before I could and I was sexually frustrated because I needed Jacob to relieve me.

I sighed after using one of my favorites for the third time today, – and it was only 5pm – I decided that I was done with this.

I was going back to La Push, getting my man and kicking ass on the way too.

So I went and took a shower, packed an overnight bag and headed out.

My poor family has been trying everything to cheer me up. They obviously were on Jake's side; believing that it was the same situation that I was in.

It was ironic really, that when I was accused of cheating, my family ignored me. But when it was Jacob, they were all on his side and everything. Thanks family, I appreciate the love.

I picked up my keys and not needing to say anything – since they saw my small suitcase and the determined look on my face – left the house.

Hopping into my midnight blue convertible I started to drive.

About a thousand miles into my road trip I felt the sense of someone watching me.

I looked over to the woods beside the road and saw two pairs of eyes running with the car. One pair was gray and the other was blue.

I sighed and pulled over. Out came my sisters in basketball shorts and tank tops.

"If you were going to follow me you could have at least done a better job."

They shrugged, and I rolled my eyes, "Come on and hop in. No point in making you run the rest of the way."

They got in and with that we drove the rest of the way to La Push.

--

I pulled outside of our house and hopped out.

With two days of driving nonstop a girl needed to freshen up.

Jumping into the shower, Ana made something to eat while Wendy sat and looked pretty.

I stepped out of the bathroom and into the room to hear a commotion downstairs.

I was about to run down and help my sisters when I heard a voice that sent a shiver through me.

"Come on you guys, her car is here and I can smell her. Can you please just let me see her, please? For one minute? I'm begging you."

Jacob downstairs was one of my biggest nightmares and dreams at the same time.

I didn't want to see him yet because I haven't had my thoughts in order yet, but after a month without seeing the man you love is hard.

After all we've been through I still love the bastard. Cheater or not; and there's no way some ho is gonna come in between us.

I dressed quickly in sweats and a tank top.

I had at least wanted to look good when I went to see him. Show him what he'd given up, but that plan was out the window now.

I bounded down the stairs where my sisters were trying, unsuccessfully, to hold Jacob back from going up the stairs.

He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw me, "Melanie," he breathed out.

I shivered again, I missed the way he said my name.

I drank in the sight of him, all shirtless and whatnot. Glistening with sweat and a manly stubble on his chin. My stomach tightened, I wanted to jump him on the spot.

I looked towards my sisters and they got the message; they quickly made themselves scarce.

They'd probably be listening in, but I couldn't help that.

When we were alone, Jacob started to walk towards me slowly. As if to give me time to back away.

Eventually he reached me and put his large hands on my shoulders.

Once again, slowly, he drew me close to him and gave me a hug.

I welcomed it, his heat, the feel of him against me; just Jacob in general.

How the hell did I survive this long without him?

Then it hit me, I not only loved Jacob, I'd imprinted on him. I don't know if it was like that in the beginning or if it had just happened now.

All I knew was that no matter what, Jacob Black and Melanie Wolfbane would be together forever, no matter what.

Tears slowly ran down my face in silently.

Jacob pulled away and I felt so cold without his warmth.

He took my face in his hands and looked me in the eye, "You know the truth Melanie. I can see it on your face."

My lip quivered, I was so close to bawling it wasn't even funny.

"Yeah, I guess I do." When I said that my voice was scratchy as it does when I'm close to sobbing.

He was about to say something else when none other than the ho herself walked in.

I'd had enough of her and I wasn't about to take it anymore.

She walked into my house like she owned the place and looked Jacob over with an eye full of lust. I can't believe she used to be my friend, I guess I just don't know how to pick 'em.

When her eyes landed on me she scowled. "Are you still trying to convince Jacob that he made a mistake. 'Cause you're never gonna get that to happen. He's with me now Hun."

I looked over and Jacob and to tell the truth, he looked scared. I guess that's because I was seeing red.

"Don't believe what she says Mel! She wouldn't leave me alone but I never touched her with a ten foot pole."

Erin smiled, "No, you touched me alright, with a pole was about ten inches, dark, thick and juicy." After that she licked her lips.

That was it.

"You mother fucking son of a bitch. I will kick your fucking ass!" I yelled and changed.

My clothes went flying everywhere in pieces but I didn't give a shit at the moment.

I was seeing red, and I know it's a metaphor or whatever but I really wanted to see red. And that red just happened to be Erin's blood.

She didn't even see it coming. I wasn't the ten-time reigning champion in my pack for transformation for nothing.

I hopped on her and started to swipe my huge paws at her face and chest.

I could see the blood seeping out her body and it was like I couldn't get enough.

I wanted to kill her. I've never wanted to kill another one of my kind that much in my life. Even when I caught Sebastian and Lucy together in bed.

I kicked their asses, yes, but I've never felt this intense urge to kill someone before. It was kind of empowering.

I was about to take her head off with one last swipe when she yelled something at me that made me freeze.

"I'm pregnant!"

Oh, fuck no.

Thanks to my reviewers! (All my reviews have made the second page! I'm so happy! - I'm going to start replying down here too.)

x3sunnydaay - I know right!

Twit-Tard - I know but we wouldn't have a story if he didn't fall for it... or maybe we would. Oh, well too late now.

BlacksWerewolfa - I'm glad you read it all in one sitting. Yeah, I'm pretty decieving; and the death of Sebastian and Erin are still in the process.
