Here's to another chapter! And some more twists and turns... with plenty to come! Hope you enjoy.
Happy readings!


And I'm done hoping that we can work it out,
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around.
And ohhh
I'm done thinking, that you could ever change.
I know my heart will never be the same,
but I'm telling myself I'll be okay.
Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger.
I get a little bit stronger.

Getting along without you baby,
I'm better off without you baby,
How does it feel with out me baby?
I'm getting stronger without you baby.

~ A Little bit Stronger by Sara Evans


I stood there beside Emily listening to the preacher as he declared Sam and Emily husband and wife. I smiled for the cameras, pretended to be happy for the guests and I even gave out hugs and kisses at times.

Now in the reception hall I sat in the corner looking out the window as I played with my drink, Billy came over to the table placing a hand over mine I jumped not expecting it. When I saw Billy there I smiled as he gave me a soft, sad look. I knew he knew about the baby, I couldn't look at him, I just looked away. Billy placed a soft kiss on my hand.

"I know you don't want to hear this Amelia, but Jacob is miserable as well." I looked at Billy before looking back out the window.

"It's his own fault." I said softly tear pricking at my eyes, I hated how much I have been crying lately Billy didn't say anything else. He just shook his head giving my hand another kiss before he left. I sighed leaning back against the chair, I would smile when I felt eyes on me, I would laugh at the horrible jokes and I would pretend to be happy. I was a damn good actress.

I walked over to the stage picking up my mic as Jacob did the same he looked at me, watching me while I turned to look at the audience I couldn't help but smile as I saw how happy every one looked, how in love Emily and Sam are… they are so lucky. I tried to focus on the task at hand, and not Jacob. he was standing so close I couldn't help but breathe in his scent, the one that drove me crazy. Focusing on the speech I smiled.

"Speeches aren't really my strong points, but I'm gonna give this a whirl." I smiled as everyone laughed softly. "I wanted to congratulate Samuel here on hooking a wonderful woman, I'm still not quiet sure how that worked." I said sighing, teasing them a little as Sam smiled giving Ems a butterfly kiss, Jacob stood beside me his presence assaulting my senses.

"No seriously, I wanted to thank you Sam. I know you are going to be good to my sister, your going to treat her right and protect her from anything and everything. You two will grow old together and your love will never change. Here's to two of the greatest people I know, here's to the love I wanna be in." I said holding up my glass tipping it to them before everyone applauded and took a sip of their drinks.

Jacob looked at me something flashed in is eyes before looking out to everyone, he smiled I could tell he was nervous.

"I've known Sam for a long time, you could say we're more like brothers than friends. Sam has always been the leader, always been someone to look up to. He shows us how a woman is suppose to be treated." Ha… maybe you need to take some damned notes Black! I thought to myself as I stood beside him, smiling here and there when it was appropriate.

"Sam's got him a good woman, Emily never lets him stray to far and when he starts she's right there to set him straight. It takes a strong woman to deal with us, and Sam's got him a good one. Here's to many years of happiness, love and joy." He said raising his glass, clinking it with mine. I couldn't help but wonder what soap box he got that off of.

As I left the stage I felt Jacob following me. I tried to will him gone but when I opened my eyes he was still behind me. As I walked outside taking a seat in the beautiful gardens he sat down on the cold stone next to me, I glanced over at him arching a brow.

"what do you want Jacob?" Turning to face me Jacob grabbed my hands, I tried to pull them away but he wouldn't let me.

"We need to talk."

"No, no we don't. I have nothing to say to you, I have nothing to say about my baby and I have nothing to say about your Bella. You picked her side a long time ago Black."

I said looking away from him Jacob raised one hand to turn my face back to him.

"Why didn't you tell me Amelia?"

"Why would I tell you Jacob? You don't even want me, what on earth would make me believe you wanted my baby?" Jacob looked at me, his expression soft as he played with a strand of my hair.

"That's not true Ami."

"Yes it is, don't let some sense of guilt control how you feel Jacob." I said closing my eyes as I felt his light touch at the base of my throat. He was just being nice because of the guilt he felt… nothing else. He loves Bella, he always has and he always will.

"I should of protected you Amelia." I heard him say softly, his voice holding something that sounded like pain. I shot him a look as I stood up.

"You should of done a lot of things Jacob, but you didn't. You picked Bella time and time again and now we are both paying the price. I blame you for this, I blame you for the loss of our child." With that I turned and walked away from Jacob. I didn't look back, I just kept on walking. I had done my job, I had been the perfect sister for Emily today, I had tried to be a good mate for Jacob and now I was done. Now I was going to think of myself, I'm leaving this one horse town and I'm leaving now.

Reaching my car I looked back over my shoulder a part of me hurt when I noticed Jacob wasn't following me, I quickly shook it off unlocking my car. I no longer needed Jacob at least that's what I was going to tell myself. As I went to get in the car I felt that all to familiar presence looking to my right, I saw the vampire leaning against my car a smile playing on his lips.

"Hello love… afraid I had forgotten you?" I looked at the vampire and sighed, I didn't have the will to fight anymore.

"I couldn't be so lucky." I said moving to open my car door, you know its sad when you are no longer afraid of a blood sucking vampire. He looked at me a little puzzled by my reaction before he moved closer pushing my car door shut.

"Love, what is wrong?" He asked tilting his head to the side as he looked at me. I took a step away from him.

"Don't, leave me alone." I said trying to sound strong as the vampire smirked looking at me, reaching out he pushed some hair out of my eyes.

"Your will to fight seems to have dwindled my little dragon… why is that?" I pulled away from him only to find myself pinned between the car and the vampire's cold body.

"Fuck. Off." I said through clenched teeth, he just chuckled his fingers running through my hair.

"Now, that's not nice."

"I don't care."

"I will have to teach you manners love, we can't have you being rude." He said softly leaning in to kiss the space under my ear.

"Leave me a lone… please just leave me alone!" I said closing my eyes tight. My life seriously couldn't get any more fucked up than what it was right now. I no longer had my baby, instead of Jacob hating me he now felt sorry for me… that was a million times worse, he still loved Bella and I just didn't have the will to fight anything any more. Life was hard, but this was ridiculous. I felt tears start to prick my eyes the vampire leaned in wiping the tears away.

"I can make it go away Love, I can make everything better… I can make you forget." He said softly, whispering in my ear. I took a deep breath. Forgetting everything, no longer feeling the pain that was oddly tempting. I shook my head no trying to get away from the vampire.

"Love, I grow tired of your games. I want you, you will grow to love me and we will live together forever." He said grabbing a handful off my hair.

"Get off of me! You are crazy!" I said my voice growing louder as I pushed against the vampire's chest.

"Enough!" He thundered slamming me back into my car, it hurt… but it felt good. The pain helped me focus on something. I let out a soft hiss as he pressed into me. "Why must you always make me so angry Love? I don't take joy in knowing I am hurting you… I am not the monster everyone makes me out to be… I care for you Amelia. I know you are hurting, I know the pain you must feel at the lose of your baby… let me help you Amelia. Let me take that pain away." He said softly his hands moving up to cup my face as I looked up at him, my eyes wide. How did he know all that?

"Ami, my dear, sweet Ami, I am not the average vampire. My name is Krvopijac, I have many powers not even the Volturi can compete with. I am one of the few 'original' vampires… my powers are great, my sex drive is amazing, you will be well pleased, I will protect you to my dying breath… I have been searching the world for centuries trying to find you Amelia Young and now that I have found you, I will not let you go."

Krvopijac said staring down into my eyes, I took a breath before looking away, vampires are good at mind games… vampires and Bella. She knew the entire time about the imprint she knew what it did to me to see Jacob with her and yet she didn't care. She just played him and hurt me in the process. I felt a cold hand resting on my cheek, I looked up to see Krvopijac standing there his head tilted to the side.

"You have been through so much my Love, let me take care of you. Let me turn you into my queen, I will treat you as such, you will never be hurt again." I looked at him, he knew how to talk a good game. I thought back to Jacob, the old Jacob the Jacob I had fallen in love with. He was kind, caring and always had a smile for me. I had come to believe that I made him happy, that he really actually loved me… but he didn't. He loved Bella, always has and always will. I looked at Krvopijac and shook my head.

"No. I can't. I love Jacob." I said softly watching as the vampire's eyes changed, they were now blood red. He took a step away from me hissing as he stared at me.

"I grow tired of games Amelia. I have chosen you to be my mate, and you will soon fulfill that role willingly or not. I am not a very patient man Amelia, do not make me get angry." He said more like growled out. I would never understand how I could get myself into this situations. Closing my eyes I sighed before looking back to Krvopijac, he stood there trying to calm down, his eyes weren't as red as he watched me.

"My heart isn't mine to give Krvopijac. Kill me if you want too, but I will never be yours." I spoke softly as he moved closer to me I saw a blur of black and white rush past me grabbing the vampire before sending him flying across the parking lot, I looked over to my right to see Paul, Quil and Seth standing beside me, Jacob was in front of us growling a warning growl to the vampire.

Krvopijac stood up laughing lightly as he walked over staring at Jacob.

"So we meet again my friend, allow me to properly introduce myself. My name is Krvopijac, I want your mate. It wont be long until she is mine, her will to fight isn't as strong as it use to be… it's a shame you would break just a wonderful thing Jacob. Amelia is too good for you." With that Krvopijac vanished before reappearing beside me long enough to kiss my cheek.

"Until next time Love, until next time." With that he was gone. I stood there shocked, I never knew what I did to myself to deserve such bad treatment from Karma but all I can say is I Must have been a damned bitch in my past life. Paul walked over to me taking me in his arms as I stood there holding onto his bicep as I stared across the empty parking lot… I started to laugh. This was getting to be too much. I tore myself away from Paul starting the car and peeling out of my parking spot, I hit 90 on the way home.

I couldn't stay and talk with the pack, I couldn't look at Jacob and I couldn't bring myself to meet anyone in the eye. I was leaving. As soon as I got what I needed packed, I was gone.

Pulling into my drive way I got out of the taking a deep breath I slowly let it out taking a mental picture of La Push. I hated to leave my home, but I had too. I hated to leave Jacob but I couldn't stay here any longer. Walking into my house I picked up my suit case and got to packing. Come day light I would be heading toward the state line, my time in La Push was at an end.
