Author/Note: This is a Leah/Jacob story with all the normal pairings and the events in Breaking Dawn never happened, because just like my cousin said, Breaking Dawn shouldn't even be considered a book.

Our Dawn

Part II

Leah Clearwater

43. Endless Possibilities

"What the hell did I tell you about the toys, Embry?" Jacob asked.

"Take it easy dude. I'm going to pack everything in a minute."

"And where's Quil? That fucking moron…If he's with Claire again I'm going to kill him."

"He's at the store with Seth getting the blue paint you asked for." Embry said. "Dude…Chill out."

Maybe it hadn't been such a good idea to ask Quil, Embry and Seth to help us remodelling the house. Jacob was in a very bad mood since that morning because Rachel was constantly calling to ask him to go and pick up his stuff. She wanted to start changing his room into the baby's nursery as soon as possible.

Jacob liked to do things at his own will and not have someone around pressuring him into it, even if it was his own sister.

"Jacob…I'm trying to put the kids to sleep. Keep your voice down."

"Sorry."

In that moment his phone started ringing again and Jacob rolled his eyes watching his sister's name on the screen.

"Fuck." He cursed.

"Language, Jacob…We have two kids now." I warned him. "Let me handle Rachel."

He passed me the phone and a few minutes later I was on my way over to Billy's house to talk to Rachel. She was waiting for me on the porch, with her hands on her waist.

"Finally. Damn Leah…would it kill both of you to come and pick this stuff? It's not even that much…"

"Take it easy, Rachel. Stress isn't good for the baby."

"How are my nephews?" She asked opening the door for me.

"Fine but your brother is really pissed off with you right now."

"He said we would pick up his stuff last week when he moved in to your place and never showed up."

"He's been busy. He's painting the kids' room and he wants to finish remodelling by the end of the month."

"What about me?"

"You're only four months pregnant, Rachel. Besides Jacob's old room is so small, Paul will finish everything in less than a week."

She glared at me and I laughed because no matter what, Rachel would never manage to glare like me. We started to put Jacob's things in my car and suddenly Rachel shrieked like a lunatic when she noticed my finger.

"You're finally wearing my mother's ring!" She said. "So this means you're going public…was about time."

So far only seven people knew about our engagement: Seth, my mother, Charlie, Quil, Embry, Rachel and Billy.

"Yeah…Well we kind of argued last night and I decided to give in a little since he agreed to wait at least two years."

"I have no idea how my brother can put up with your stubbornness."

"Well…I'm really good in bed, you know?" I mocked and she rolled her eyes.

"Seriously, Leah…why wait two years? Jacob loves you."

"I know. I love him too and that's why I'm wearing his ring."

"That's so romantic. Can you imagine some people faces when they realise you and Jake are going to get married?"

"Oh yeah…It's going to be great…more rumours." I said sarcastically. "People already think I'm a slut who let herself get pregnant on purpose to grab the chief's son…"

"Well, you did grab the chief's son." Rachel laughed.

"But I'm not a conniving bitch…Anyways I guess I'll just have to endure it for a while and it's not like I can't handle it."

"You do realise that the Cullen's midget is going to go crazy when she realises she has yet another wedding to organise."

"Another? What do you mean?"

Rachel took an envelope from her pocket and handed it over to me.

"Jared wanted to give this to you but he had to go to the Academy yesterday so he left it with me."

It was an invitation to his wedding ceremony in November.

"They finally set the date. Another imprint couple's wedding." I sighed. I would have to dress myself up for this one, which would mean that Alice would be knocking at my door pretty soon.

"Why do you sound so sad? I mean you're going to get married too."

"I know."

"Are you still afraid that my brother will imprint?"

"No…I mean…sometimes I think about it but not as often as I used to."

"Jacob's sure that he isn't going to imprint. Trust him."

I nodded and got into the car ready to leave. I was driving home when a large black wolf crossed the road and I almost hit him unintentionally. I stopped the car and Sam went into the woods returning a few seconds later.

I met him on the desert road with my arms crossed over my chest. We hadn't spoken for more than three weeks now.

"Hi…" He said.

"Are you trying to kill youself?" I asked.

"Would you have stopped if I asked politely?" He retorted.

He still knew me too well.

"Probably not." I confessed. "What do you want Sam?"

"You're really marrying him?" He asked. I guess someone had been listening to my conversation with Rachel.

"Yes, I am."

"Even knowing that he can find his soul mate anytime?"

"He's my children's father and I love him."

"You must really love him…either that or you're a fool."

"Sam…I'm sick and tired of arguing with you."

"I'm not here to fight. I'm just trying to understand how someone like you fell in love with a non imprinted wolf and is about to sacrifice everything for him. What the hell is so special about him?"

"Why can't you just accept that I'm over you and that Jacob's the one?"

"Because I have to live everyday with the constant memory of losing you against my own will. I never had a choice Leah, but you do."

"I know that and I've chosen Jacob."

"You're choosing wrong. He'll hurt you just like I did."

"Have you ever thought that the only reason why you imprinted on Emily was to allow me to be with Jacob?"

"Is that what you think?" He asked sounding a little hurt. "So what meaning did I have in your life?"

"You were my boyfriend and the one who broke my heart. Now you have Emily and I have Jacob. You're my cousin's husband and you should start acting like it."

"How did you manage to move on this easily?"

"Easily? Are you out of your fucking mind? You know what I've been through…you read my thoughts when I was in your pack…I even thought about suicide once or twice. It wasn't easy Sam…but it was required for me to move on and fall in love again otherwise my babies would never be born."

"How can you walk around and not miss what we had? How could you let me go like this when even today I want to go back in time? I wish this had never happened!"

Maybe it wasn't a smart move to hit Sam. He was taller and definitely stronger than me but I really couldn't help myself. After all that time he was still in denial, still trying to claim me, still interfering in my life.

I swung my right arm and punched him as hard as I could in the face. I felt his nose breaking and I watched as the blood started to fall into his bare chest.

Sam glared at me with red glowing eyes.

"I used to hate Emily for stealing my boyfriend but now I just pity her. You know why? Because no one deserves to have a husband like you who can't even forget about his ex-girlfriend!"

Sam started shaking and I knew he was on the verge of phasing, which was probably a good time for me to run into my car and leave but I didn't do it.

"You are an ungrateful bastard. Fate gave you Emily and Ella and you're denying them? What kind of a man are you, Sam? You have to let me go and start living your life. Your wife and child need you."

I was going to turn around when his large hand grabbed my wrist.

"Sam…let me go." I ordered.

"Why? So you can go home to him?"

"Yes. I'm his Sam…not yours."

Once again I had aggravated the situation. If I stayed there much longer I would have the same fate that Emily did, only I was absolutely sure Sam would kill me and probably hide my body in the woods.

We were finally interrupted by a car pulling over on the other side of the road. I was surprised to see Rosalie's red Mercedes there but at least now Sam would have to stop the charade and calm down.

The problem was that Rosalie Hale wasn't driving the car, Jacob was. And as soon as he saw Sam holding me against my will he phased and Sam did the same. Fortunately I managed to duck and none of them hit me when they started fighting. My car didn't have the same luck though.

After seeing both wolves smashing the left side of my car and fighting dangerously close to Rosalie's Mercedes, I decided to phase and try to stop Jacob from killing Sam, even though right now that was pretty much what I wanted to do myself.

'Jacob…Don't kill him…yet.' I couldn't hear or speak into Sam's mind so the only thing I could do was try to calm Jacob down, although I wasn't having success.

His thoughts were full of anger and he was constantly thinking about our nights together and our children. I knew he was trying to rub in Sam's face that I was his.

'She's going to marry me, she's going to be my wife and she had my kids. Got that moron?' That was the only coherent thought I could pick up in Jacob's mind.

Ok, to say that Jacob was pissed off was an understatement and Sam was very close to lose a limb or two.

We went further into the forest, which was a good thing because if they messed up Rosalie's car, our peace treaty with the Cullens would be over.

Jacob's teeth were very close to Sam's throat two or three times but Sam was a fair opponent and he injured Jacob too. After a few minutes watching them destroying trees and bushes I knew I had to do something or this could go on forever.

'Jacob! I'm going to phase back right now! I'll be in danger and completely naked in front of Sam.' I knew this would get his attention for a few seconds.

'Don't you dare!' He snarled at me.

I really didn't want to be forced to do that but what choice did I have?

'Well you could always call us.' My brother's thoughts reached me.

'Although it would be nice to see you naked…again.' Embry added.

'Embry!' Jacob growled. 'After I finish Sam off, I'm going to kick your ass.'

'We're almost there, Leah.' Seth assured me. And indeed they arrived rather fast to where Sam and Jacob were fighting. The three of us managed to stop them. Sam and Jacob glared at each other fiercely and I knew they were having a mental talk. Too bad I couldn't listen but I would know about it later when Jacob and I got home.

'Embry, Seth…take Sam home and make sure he stays with his wife.' Jacob ordered.

When they finally disappeared in the forest, we felt the stench of a leech approaching us. It was Rosalie and she was totally pissed off.

"If you pull that stunt on me again, I swear I'll kill you, mutt!" She said inspecting her car attentively. "Phase back so I can personally hit you."

'What the fuck did you do to her?' I questioned.

'I was out buying some more stuff when Quil called me about Seth and Embry leaving the house. She happened to be passing by in her car, she was going to visit us…I made her stop and took her car, since I couldn't phase in the middle of the street.'

'Are you suicidal?'

'Do you think she would forgive me if I phased back and stood naked in front of her?'

'Are you joking? She would murder you right there.'

Jacob ignored Rosalie's protests and she realised what was going on. She knew he couldn't phase back because he would be totally naked.

"Fine, we'll talk later. I want an apology first thing tomorrow and bring my godson…I need to see him." She walked into her car and prepared to leave. "I need to go clean my car…Damn mutts."

Since we didn't have anything to put on and my car was smashed, Jacob and I went back home in wolf form and we howled outside so Quil would hear and bring us some clothes.

"What the hell happened?" Quil asked after we got inside. "One moment everything was fine and the other Seth was all stressed out and stormed out of door saying you needed help…"

"Are the kids alright?" I asked.

"Of course they are. They're still sleeping like angels."

"Good. Now leave." I ordered.

"What? But…What happened?" Quil insisted.

I really didn't want to go there. I didn't want to have to explain to Quil that the only reason why I wanted him out of my house was because I couldn't stop thinking about how hot Jacob looked like, especially after seeing him beat up Sam's ass and talk so possessively about me. I had never wanted him so much in my life.

"Seth and Embry will be here soon…wait for them outside and they'll tell you." Jacob said pushing him to the door. I guess he was feeling the same.

I knew what would happen as soon as the door closed. We could hardly control ourselves and I didn't even know how we managed to go to our room.

Our new furniture was awesome. The bed didn't make uncomfortable noises every time things got rough and I was more than happy to let Jacob be creative this time. His hands ran over my body, discarding my clothes so fast I could barely feel them touch me.

"Did he touch you?" Jacob asked while caressing my stomach and going down.

"Of course not." I panted.

"Did he hurt you?"

"No. And you? Are you ok?" I asked inspecting his chest. There were just a few bruises.

"I don't think he's going to bother us again." He whispered against my skin.

"Why not? What did you tell him before he left?"

Jacob's smile grew into a huge grin.

"I told him what Carlisle discussed with me last week."

"And what was that?"

He hesitated for a while and planted soft kisses along my neck going all the way to my stomach again and making me shiver.

"Jacob…What did he tell you?" I insisted.

"He told me you're mine forever. He told me he believes that you turned into a wolf to be with me."

I propped myself on my elbows and looked at him with curiosity.

"Explain that to me, please…" I begged holing his face and pulling him over to meet my gaze.

"In the past all the other packs were formed by three or four elements because there weren't too many vampires on the area. With us it was different and Carlisle said that the large numbers of wolves changed the pack's dynamics and made it necessary to have a female. Just one…the alpha female…"

"And?"

"Nature took over because with so many leeches wandering around the alpha pair should take over and lead the pack together thus conceiving a lineage of pure wolves."

"So…I turned into a wolf to have pups?"

"No. You turned into a wolf to be the alpha female…to be with the alpha male. The pups would happen eventually when the heat cycle begun but…We rushed things a bit."

"How do you know I wasn't supposed to be with Sam? He's an alpha too." I teased.

"I'm the rightful alpha not him." Jacob growled and I felt a powerful fire engulfing me when he straddled me, brushing my sides seductively. "You picked me…We're meant to be together, Leah."

"So I'm not a genetic mistake?"

"No…And you know what's even better?"

"What?"

"I won't imprint. The alpha pair mates for life."

"Does that mean I'm stuck with you for all eternity?" I asked pretending to be disgusted. "That's going to be boring…"

"I'm sure we can think about one or two ways to keep ourselves busy."

"Really? Like what?"

"I don't know…there are endless possibilities." He said in a husky voice. "Do you want me to show you?"

"You bet, Oh-Mighty-Alpha."

He crushed my lips with his in a bruising kiss and pressed our bodies together before taking me as his inner wolf was telling him to do. I didn't play the submissive female though and Jacob enjoyed that a little too much.

I didn't know why things were being so different this time but maybe it was because we were finally making love and not thinking that it could be the last time. The fear of him imprinting was now almost nonexistent. I also realised that no matter the control that our inner wolves had upon us, we had fallen in love the old fashioned way.

"Jacob…" I moaned.

"What?"

"I don't really care if nature brought us together…I don't care about us being mates…it wasn't my inner wolf that chose you…it was Leah Clearwater, the bitter bitch everyone hated once."

"I know…" He said, moving faster and leaving a mark of his fingers on my hips.

"Jacob..." I panted while feeling our bodies tensing up. "I love you."

He joined our foreheads and looked into my eyes deeply.

"I love you too."

A few hours later I woke up naked, sore but completely happy. Jacob wasn't there with me but I knew he was home. I could feel his scent. I put some clothes on and I found him in the living room holding William while Harry was lying in the couch.

"They were crying." He said. "I didn't want them to wake you up."

I really was exhausted but I didn't mind to spend time with him and our children right now so I held Harry and kissed his little head. His black hair was now more visible.

"Do you want to help me giving them a bath?" I asked.

"Do you hear that boys? Mummy and Daddy are going to give you a bath…Let's go!" Jacob said happily.

I smiled. Right now my life couldn't get any better.


A/Note (2): The story is finally coming to an end. Next chapter will be the last one and it will be in Jacob's POV. Hope you like it. =) And Sam got his ass kicked again. I guess Sam is always going to be a rock on their shoes. =S
