Ok guys so I had this story in mind for a while. I know many of you all are team Edward, but you have to know that Bella and Jacob could be good together too! Besides there are thousands of E/B stories and very little B/J…So please don't be mad that in this story Jacob gets the girl. I am using Stephanie Meyers' characters and some of my own. This is AU and OOC. There will be some mature language and themes. I have not beta so mistakes are my own. You might find a lot; I changed this story around so many times. So I apologize in advance. R&R Please…. Enjoy!

While we sat around laughing, talking, and socializing with one another, I had a stirring of my gifts within me. My eyes were drawn to Billy, my father-in-law. He was smiling, but I could see the sadness underneath. I knew he was shocked to know his best friend was a wolf, and regretted that he would never be able to run with him. I stood up from Jacob's lap and I looked at my mate and asked, "Do you trust me?"

Jacob answered, "Without hesitation, with my life!"

I smiled, "Good! No matter what you see stay calm." He nodded his agreement.

I walked over to Billy. He looked up at me with a smile on his face, "Well, it is official, Bella. You are now my daughter!"

I smiled back and answered, "Yes, Billy, I am and as my new father, will you allow me to give you a gift?"

He looked intrigued but gave me his consent. I sat on his lap and placed my arms around his neck. He held me at my hips loosely, almost like a lovers embrace, but not. The room became deathly quiet. I looked to my grandfather. He smiled and nodded for me to continue. I looked back at Billy. He looked confused and uncomfortable, but did not try to push me off. I got closer to his face and leaned in. I whispered, but I knew all the wolves could hear me as I asked, "May I kiss you, Billy?"

Billy swallowed and forced out a weak, "Yes."

My lips descended upon his, I covered his mouth with mine. I heard a growl coming from my mate and others, but Jake makes no move to stop what's going on. So, I continued on and use my lips to nudge Billy's mouth open. I do not use my tongue as this is not a lover's kiss. He understood and opened his mouth. I hold him closer to me and blow my breath, and some of my essence, into him. Billy gasps and pulls me closer to him. I feel my spirit woman traveling through Billy's body to the wounded area of his spine. Billy is still holding on to me tightly as we repair the damaged area. He arched his back in the chair, and I rose up off of his lap. I still hold on to him as my grandfather removes his wheel chair from under him. He is not standing on his own yet and is limp in my arms. He then yelled out "FIRE!" and started to shake and sweat in my arms. I carried him outside and continued to hold him while chanting over him in our dialect words of healing and cleansing. I eventually lay him down, and he yells out as his body's bones begin to bend and shift. He groaned loudly, then with a dramatic explosion, he transformed into his wolf! And, what a glorious wolf! While Jacob is completely russet in color, Billy is black with russet splotches. He howled into the night with joy and happiness and the rest of the pack joined in.

I looked over to the left and I know my spirit woman is not done healing. I see the tears streaming down Emily's beautifully scared face. I raise my hand to her and tell her to come to me. She looked to Sam for permission which he gave, and she walked slowly to me. Once she's in front of me, she looked up at me, and I open my arms to embrace her. She fell into my embrace while sobbing. I comfort her and coo words of encouragement and love to her. I pulled her head back and began to lick her neck and face, where she carries the scars. She allowed me and tears continued to run down her face under her closed eyes. I heard Sam growl out as his wolf was not comfortable with my embrace and attentions to his mate. I looked him in the eyes for permission to continue. He gave me a mental "yes." So I do! Once I have covered all the scars with my saliva, I don't kiss her like I did with Billy. However, I felt led to blow my breath upon her. She smiles as she feels the warmth. But, then it heats up and she too yells out "FIRE!" But she is not in pain. Her cries turn to smiles and laughter coming from deep within her diaphragm. She laughed and laughed and then she rolled over. Her hair covered her face, but when she finally looked up, her eye found her mate. She pushed her hair back and everyone gasped. Her face was completely healed. Sam was frozen, shocked in place and I fall to my knees as I am weak from such intensive healings.

My mate and grandfather come to me, Jake taking me in his arms and my grandfather caressing my hair out of my face. He spoke to Jake, telling him to make sure I eat and rest as I will need to recharge. I looked into the eyes of my mate as he looked at me with so much love and awe. He kissed me with such gentleness, even reverence. I smiled at him and just snuggled my face into his neck as he carried me into the house. As we go, we hear the sound of celebration!

We were pleased the spirits had granted a great blessing to our people!

"I love you my Bella." Jake whispered in my ear as he held me in a tight embrace. There was a big celebration going on outside, but Jake and I were just enjoying being alone in the house for a moment. I turned around and straddled Jake and looked deeply in his eyes, and respond, "I love you as well, mio lupo."

He smiled but looked confused as to what I just called him. I chuckled, answering his unspoken question, "It means my wolf in Italian."

"Oh!" He smiled, "I like it! Will that be your new name for me?"

"Yes," I responded, "it will." I leaned in and kissed him deeply.

We were very quickly getting carried away. Just as Jake started to remove my clothing, we heard the back door open, and Emily came running in followed by Sam and Billy. She fell to her knees and threw herself in my lap, thanking me profusely for her healing.

"No, Emily!" I stopped her, and she looked at me shocked and afraid. I smiled at her and spoke to her softy, "Emily, all I did was to be open and sensitive to the spirits. It was they who healed you and Billy. I was just the vessel."

Her smile was brilliant. She rose to her feet, "Well, I thank you then for your obedience Bella." She gave me a big hug.

I felt strong arms surround us and felt tears fall on my shoulder. I didn't move for I knew it was Sam. He had carried the guilt of Emily scars. It tore him up that he had accidentally inflicted such pain on his imprint. He spoke softly thanking the spirits for me and what was done for his mate.

I heard mio lupo growling and they immediately let me go. It appears my mate did not like someone holding me for so long, regardless of the reason why. But that thought was short lived as I was caught in my father-in-law's strong arms and swung around. "Bella, I always knew you were a special child. I never thought I would ever walk again, let alone shift!"

He looked at me with so much love, and placed a long gentle kiss on my forehead until I was pulled out of his arms by Jake. I caressed his face, "Oh, mio lupo." He buried his face in my neck scenting me. His mind spoke to me, telling me there were too many scents on me for his liking, and he will be spending most of the night, if not all, immersing me fully in his. I shivered in anticipation as I desired very much to claim my mate again.

We all went back outside and enjoyed the celebration with our pack and families. It was a joyous time indeed. I was looking forward to what tomorrow will bring. Look at how much has changed in just of a couple of days. I went from being an only child with very little family to gaining a mate and huge new family as well. I was truly blessed and loving every minute of it!
