Seth's POV

Seth just finished looking for Leah, and decided to go home and wait for her to come home.

I am so fucking pissed at Emily and the pack right now. I'm sick of the way they treat my sister. And I'm so done with Emily, fuck her she's not family anymore. I was so pissed all I could do was pace the living room, but then my stomach decide to let me know I was starved. I haven't eaten since breakfast because I won't eat anything that muffin backstabbing cousin of mine makes, even if it does smell good.

Walking into the kitchen I see mom made two whole lasagnas. Leah loves lasagna. I ate mine out of the pan with a spoon since my mom wasn't here to get mad at me about my manners. I went back into the living room and ate while I watched TV and waited for Lee to come home. A couple of hours had passed and still no sign of her. I put her food away and cleaned up the kitchen. I knew how upset she was so I decide to just hop in the shower and go to bed. I know she will be back tomorrow. Leah knows how much I worry about her and mom. I'm the man of the house now and it's my job to keep them both safe. But I also know Leah, and when she is upset she doesn't like for people to see that because to her it's a weakness, and my sister may be a lot of things but weak isn't one of them. So I'm going to give her the time she needs to calm down. She has until tomorrow night before I force her ass to come home.

Going to bed I couldn't stop thinking about how much Leah has been through, and how much I love her. She has always been there for me, and starting tomorrow I'm going to do the same. I'm going to force the pack and Emily to start treating her with some respect. Those are my last thoughts before I fall asleep. That night I had the worst dream about Leah being hurt and needing help but I wasn't there to help her…

Third Person's POV

Sue was tired as hell. She had been working the night shift covering for a friend. She wasn't supposed to work that night but her friend needed help. She was lucky though because she had a couple of hours before she had to be back at work for her own shift. She liked working during the day so at night she could be home with her kids, but sometimes that didn't work out. But she wasn't going to let that get her down. She walked into her clean kitchen and was thankful once again for her kids. Ever since they lost their dad and she had to work a little more they have been helping more around the house. Well, Leah helps with the cooking and cleaning and Seth helps when the mood strikes him. It was a good thing Harry had really good life insurance because it helped covered all the bills and there was still money left over to put in the bank. Not to mention every check when he was still alive he and Sue put money in both their kid's bank accounts, so they weren't really hurting for money like most family's on the Rez.

Sue decided to make breakfast that way at least they could still share a meal together. She was basically done with the food when she heard Seth coming down the stairs.

"Morning Seth, where's your sister?" Sue asked her youngest with a smile on her pretty face as he walk into the kitchen wearing basketball shorts and no shirt. Looking at her you wouldn't be able to tell she was tired beyond belief, but she would never let her kids see her like that. She had to be strong for them and try to keep things as normal as possible. Even if they did have the difficult and dangerous job of being protectors she was going to try her hardest to keep them kids as long as she could.

"Good morning Mom. She went for a run yesterday and she hasn't come back yet. She had a really hard time at the pack meeting, and needed a break." Seth replied in a sad and worried tone but there was also a hint of anger in his voice as he sat at the table in the kitchen.

As he watched his mom cook he thought of all ways he was going to get back at Paul for what he did to his sister. He really wished Leah was there with him, so they could come up with a plan together. She was the best at things like that.

"Oh no, I don't like the sound of that. Do I even want to know what happened?" Sue asked with concern, and also a little bit of annoyance in her voice as she closed the oven so her biscuits could cook.

Her daughter had been through enough, and she didn't need her own pack giving her crap about it. Sue maybe an Elder now, but she is and always will be a mother first. She even only talks to Emily when its pack related, and no other times if it's at all possible. The way she see it is, Emily had a choice, she made it, and now she can live with it. No, Sue never goes out of her way to be rude to the girl, but she also doesn't go out of her way to help her either. She can't tell Emily how she really feels about her either because as an Elder on the council she has to respect all imprints, but that doesn't mean she has to like her. She hates the way the pack and Emily treats her daughter.

Sue always wants to bring up the way the pack treats Leah at council meetings, but Leah always talks her out of it. Telling her it's hard enough being the only girl without having to deal with her, "Mommy" fighting her battles. So Sue let's her handle it, but the moment she feels like they went too far all hell is going to break lose, because if you didn't know this about Sue Clearwater, then you need to learn it fast, but you NEVER mess with one of her kids.

"Sam and Emily told us that she pregnant and they are getting married in a couple of months. And Emily had the nerve to ask Leah to be her Maid of Honor, and you know Lee went off. She told her no, and that they weren't friends, and then Emily ran out of the room crying like a baby. Paul went off and said all this evil crap about her not being able to have kids, and about her being jealous of Emily so Lee ran out of the house in tears. IN TEARS MOM! You know better than anyone Leah never lets people see her cry, but she did yesterday in front of the whole pack!" Seth finished pissed off all over again after having to think relive it in his head. He was pacing and trying to keep calm, so he didn't break anything, but the more he thought about his sister's face and her tears the more he wanted to kill Paul. "I went looking for her, but with the rain and her blocking me I couldn't find her, so I decided to come here and wait for her." He finished out of breath, and looking at a very pissed off Sue Clearwater.

"Are you okay mom?" Seth asked worried and confused, his anger long forgotten when he saw the funny red color of his mom's cheeks. He didn't get what had set her off. It's not like that's the worst thing Emily, Sam, or Paul have ever said or done to her.

"PAUL SAID WHAT?" Sue yelled after finally finding her voice. She knew how that was the worst part about being a wolf for Leah. She could even take Sam's thoughts of Emily being so perfect, but to know she could never have kids of her own hurt Leah in a way that only another woman could understand, and the fact that Emily was having Sam's baby didn't make it any better. Sue was done, those pack of boys were going to learn some respect, and they were NEVER going to hurt her baby girl again. After a long and deep breath she asked fuming, "And what did the Sam say, or anyone else in the pack for that matter?"

That question just got Seth hyped up all over again, "Nothing! They just stood there looking stupid, and when Leah left in tears they just all went back to what they were doing."

Sue picked up the phone and called into work to let them know she had a family emergency and wouldn't be able to make it in. Then she called Billy to let him and Old Quil know that they needed to get to Sam's place for a pack meeting as soon as possible. Once they were told she turned off the food and told Seth to go and get ready. Once he came back down Sue got her coat, and told Seth it was time to go. Leah can be as mad as she wants to be, but this was going to be the last time they hurt her little girl, and Sue was going to make sure of it.

Unfortunately, Emily, the council, Seth, and Sue didn't know about what happened after Seth left, or there would have been no need for this meeting. Things were already starting to change within the pack.

Sue looked at every person in the room with disgust, but before she could say anything Jacob spoke up. "I'm sorry to interrupt Sue, but shouldn't Leah be here for this?" Jake asked with what could only be concern. His actions almost brought a smile to Sue face. But it seemed like it took Jake saying her name for some of the others to realize she wasn't even there. That only pissed Sue off more.

"No Jake. Leah doesn't need to be here for this. In fact she doesn't even know about this meeting..." Sue said in a voice that demand everyone's attention, and she got it to.

Now the thing is, Sue Clearwater is not a big woman, only 5'3, and in her nurse's uniform with her hair pulled into a lose bun with her hands on her hips, you'd think she wouldn't be scary to a bunch of men who turned into horse size wolves, but you'd be wrong because with that look in her eye she has NEVER been scarier. She had the whole pack and their imprints shifting in their seats. Everyone on the Rez knew not to make Sue mad, because that woman had a temper, and she knew how to put the fear of God into anyone if she was mad enough. After all, that's where Leah got it from. Don't miss understand Sue was one of the kinds woman on the Rez. She has a heart of gold, that is until she was mad, and it was clear to everyone in the room that Sue was beyond mad.

All the kids turned to Billy and Old Quil for help, but the men only looked away. They thought it was about time certain things in the pack be addressed, and so they were all for Sue playing the bad cop and getting the job done. They didn't know that things had already been said and done. They didn't know that things were even now as the pack sat and waited for Sue to begin that things were slowly starting to change in the pack.

Billy for one was very pleased, he has wanted to do this for a while now, but Leah had explained to him that it would just make it harder for her so he kept quiet, and made Jake promise to look out for her. Billy was pleased when Jake told him not to worry that he would even though she made it really hard for him. All Billy could do was laugh at that, because that was Leah, she was a strong and independent woman just like her mother. Billy loved Leah like his own daughter, and he promised his best friend Harry who was more like a brother to him that he would look after his little girl, and that is what he always tried to do.

"But really she can't be here, because Leah hasn't come home yet. Does anyone care to guess why?" Sue asked the question in an eerily calm voice that had everyone on edge. With Sue it was when she started out quiet that you knew you had to worry, because that's the calm before the storm. She didn't wait for an answer. "Because Paul took it upon himself to make her feel like less of a woman," when it looked like Paul was going to speak up Sue sent him a glare that put even Leah's to shame and he quickly closed his mouth. The pack would have laughed if they didn't think it would have cost them some of their manly parts. "I really don't care to hear an explanation. You were wrong for what you said and how you said it. But it's over now, and the words can't be taken back so I don't want to hear your excuses, and yes I know what she said to Emily." Sue saw how Paul went from nodding his head in what she hoped for his own health was agreement to looking to Sam and Emily for back, or maybe it was his way of saying he did it for them. Either ways Sue decided she should just start with her and get her out of the way.

She turned to Emily and said, "I'm sorry for the way she spoke to you Emily, but not for what was said. Yes, she could have just said no, but then she wouldn't be my Leah if she did. And I personally can't believe that you would ask her that after everything that has happen between the two of you. I mean you can barely look her in the eyes now and days, so why would you want her as your Maid of Honor?" Sue asked with her head tilted to the side. She seemed really curious so Emily decide to answer her.

Emily started on a shaky breath, "I still love Leah, and I never meant to hurt her. When we were younger we said we would be each other's Maid of Honors. I planned on being there for her, and I just wanted to share it with her. I just want my friendship with Leah back, and I had hoped that with the wedding we could spend some time together again, and then she would remember why we're so close. Then it could help make us close again, and we would bond over my pregnancy and be like sisters again." Emily said in tears. Seth just rolled his eyes at her. He was getting really sick of all her damn tears. She cried about everything now and days. He just didn't get her anymore. He was use to strong and independent woman like his mom and sister. He used to think Emily was that kind of woman also but that was until he saw her with Sam.

Sue didn't even seem bothered by the tears, and it seemed Emily's answer amused her, because she smiled. Emily thought she won her aunt back over for a second, that is until Sue asked her, "So it never crossed your mind that maybe she wouldn't want to see you marrying her ex-fiancé so soon after them breaking up. Or that it might hurt her feelings, and bring up some bad memories for her." She keep stressing the word her for Emily, because clearly the girl was dumb if she didn't understand why Leah reacted the way she did, and why her asking Leah in the first place was bullshit. "You know to have think of the fact that when she asked you to be her Maid of Honor that she was supposed to be marrying the same man that you plan to marry. And the only reason they aren't together now is, because he saw you at the very party that they announced their engagement at?" The whole pack, including the imprints, looked shocked with their mouths hanging open not really knowing what to do or say. They didn't even think of it like that, and that just made them all feel like jackasses, especially Paul. And really what does one say to something like that? They all knew there was nothing to say, because Sue was right, and Emily and Sam were wrong.

Paul had completely forgotten that was where Sam had imprinted on Emily. He couldn't believe that even for a second had forgotten that he and Leah walked in on them half naked and about to have sex at Leah and Sam's Engagement Party.

Flashback

"Yes Paul I'm sure I want to marry him. He's my everything Paul." Leah said smiling her dazzling smile that always made Paul go weak. He may have been the male whore of La Push, and proud of it might I add, but he could never get the one girl that he wanted above all others, Leah Clearwater.

"All I'm saying is you're really young, and might want to wait." Paul said with a shrug of his shoulders. Leah just laughed and pushed on his shoulder.

They were headed up to Leah's room to get some of her favorite CDs so that her dad could stop playing his Oldies. That's when Paul heard moaning coming from Leah's room. Leah pissed that one of her friends thought it was okay for them to go at it on her bed pushed the door open and was about to scream at the people when her voice got caught in her throat. Emily was on top of Sam with her shirt off, while she straddled his lap kissing him on her bed.

Paul watched as Leah grabbed a shocked Emily by her hair and start hitting Emily in the face. Sam came to Emily's defense and pulled Leah off of her. It was like once Sam saw the pain in her face he realized what he had just done in her bed.

"Leah! Baby! I'm so sorry! I don't know what happened. Please you have to forgive me Lee Lee." Sam whimpered.

"Get the fuck away from her Uley." Paul yelled as he pushed Sam away from Leah.

"Stay the fuck out of this Paul! It has nothing to do with you." Sam said as he started to shake. Emily picked that moment to get off the floor and speak.

"Leah! How could you hit me like that? It was a mistake! Please just let it go." Emily said with tears in her eyes. She gave Leah the look that always got her to do whatever Emily wanted her to, but it didn't work this time. Leah just lunged at her again, but this time Paul stopped her.

Taking off her ring Leah threw it at Sam and told him and Emily, "Get the fuck out of my house before I go and get my father's gun and put a hole in both of your hearts." Sam grabbed his and Emily's clothes off the floor then took Emily's hand and they ran out of the house.

"Leah? Are you okay?" Paul asked her with worry in his voice.

"NO! How could I be okay?" She screamed at him. People were coming up the stairs now trying to see what all the commotion was about. As soon as Leah saw her dad she ran right into his arms.

"Shh. I'm here baby girl. I'm here." Harry said as he comforted Leah. Holding her and rubbing soothing circles on her back to get her to calm down while she buried her face in his chest.

"I think it's time for everyone to leave." Sue said fuming. She had saw Sam and Emily run out the house and knew what her daughter had walked in on. She never thought she see the day when she would want to kill her own blood, but in that moment Sue wanted to end Emily Young for good.

Flashback Over

He had wanted to kill Sam for hurting his best friend. He didn't see her cry, but he could see the pain in her eyes. After that Leah shut down, and shut him out. Then he became a wolf, and heard their side of the story. Sam and Emily painted themselves as the misunderstood couple who got so lost in finding their true soul mates that the passion just took over and they got carried away, but they never meant to hurt anyone. And with Leah always being so mean to him and shutting him out, and Emily always being sweet to him he was able to block out things. Important things that helped explain Leah's behavior like how much his friends hated to feel pitied, and how she would go out of her way so no one could feel sorry for her. All this passed through Paul's mind quickly, but it was enough to make him hate not only himself, but Sam and Emily too. He now knew from the other imprinted couples that Sam and Emily could have waited if they really wanted to, but clearly they just didn't care. This only made him want to make amends with Leah that much more. He didn't care how long it took he was going to get his best friend back somehow. He promised himself that.

Emily broke out into a sob and clung to Sam. Emily couldn't deny the truth of her aunt's words, and that is what hurt her so much. Sam started to comfort her, but it was hard with his anger rising he wasn't going to have repeat of the first meeting with everyone attacking him and his Emily. So as he comforted her he was also giving Sue warning looks. Rather it was true or not, Sue didn't have to word it like that, and make his imprint cry.

But Sue wasn't done with the young couple yet. "Oh, no need for tears Emily. I thank Taha Aki every day that you found your soul mate, just like I'm sure you both do. All I'm saying is maybe it was a little insensitive for you to ask her that question just a little over a year after her break up with Sam, and in front of all these people no less." Sue stated in an indifferent tone, which only made Sam angry. What was it with people coming into their home to disrespect them? Sue had no more right to make Emily and him feel bad than Jacob did. They carried around enough guilt without other people adding to it.

Sam couldn't take it anymore he had to defend himself and his fiancé. "We are very sorry we hurt Leah, but that doesn't mean we have to put our lives on hold either. We just wanted to get married before the baby got here, and we wanted Leah to be a part of it. Maybe we should have asked her in private, but we wanted to share the good news with Leah and the pack. We had hoped she would be happy for us. I'm sorry she was hurt, but we didn't ask for this, and that doesn't make it okay for you all to come into our home and speak to us like this." Sam almost yelled at her as he stood from the couch, but he was able to keep it just under a yell. Sue may have been being a complete bitch to him and Emily, but she was still an Elder and had to be respected. Sue didn't even blink, or catch that he said others were making them feel bad about their actions. And if it wasn't for her addressing Sam you would have thought she didn't hear a thing he said.

"I didn't come here to make anyone cry, I came to speak the truth, and to stop everyone from hurting each other's feelings, and that includes Emily. I don't like to see her or anyone else cry. I know my child and I'm sure it can't be easy to hear some of the things Leah has to say to you guys, and I'm going to talk to her also about this, but since she's not home yet I have to start with you guys. Believe it or not I'm happy for you guys. No matter what Emily is still my sister's daughter and I do love her. I also know she'll make a great mom, and I'm not asking you guys to stop living your lives, but what I'm telling you guys is that you better stop stepping on Leah to get to your happy ending. Just like you didn't ask for this neither did Leah, and I would be grateful if from now on you guys think and try to respect Leah before you hurt her again. I know you guys are going to apologize to her later, because it's the right thing to do, and as alpha it's your job to try and do the right thing Samuel." Sue finished in a much more irritated voice than when she began. By the end of her little speech Sam was once again sitting on the couch with his head down rocking a still upset Emily. She made sure to keep emphasizing certain words to get her points across.

Sue felt good about her talk with Sam and Emily. She couldn't go all out and bitch them out like she wanted, because she's still an Elder on the council and has to act like one but she at least spoke her peace. And if they hurt her Leah again, to hell with being an Elder and an aunt she was going to kill someone. She warned them and that was all they were going to get from her because then she would be out for their blood.

Sue looked at Billy and Old Quil daring one of them to say something against her, but they just nodded their heads for her to continue. They both believed Leah was special and should be treat as such, why else would Taha Aki have blessed her by letting her become the first and only female wolf if she wasn't meant for great things. Sue smiled at the two men then looked back at the pack and let the smile fall. She had to get ready to give the rest of the pack a piece of her mind. She was going to make sure by tomorrow they were all at her house begging on their hands and knees for Leah to forgive them. She was going to make sure they knew Leah was her baby girl, and if they hurt her again that Sue was going to take it personal, because Clearwaters always fight together.

AN: Sorry guys it was getting really long, so I had to break it into two chapters. But in the next chapter all hell breaks loose, and the pack realizes they are missing one of their own. Keep in mind Leah has only been gone for a little over a day at this point.

In most stories Sue is always on Emily's side, or tries to please the both Leah and Emily, but I don't think that is right. So I decided to show Sue some love in this one and have her only be team Clearwater. I also want to get Paul back in everyone's good graces so hopefully he's getting there slowly.

Also I got a lot of flames in the last chapter. They told me my story was getting boring and I should just stop writing. Well, as you can see I'm still writing. The way I see, you guys can say and feel however you want about my story, and you guys can write whatever you want. I write because I like to and if you like it to then GREAT if not well that's fine too. I can't please everyone all the time and I'm not trying to. But if my story is so bad and boring no one is forcing you to read it, but whatever. Either way thanks for the reviews they make me better. :p

Please read and review I would love to hear your thoughts even if you hated it, lol. ;)
