Sorry for the late update! It's spring break and I haven't been at home but I'm back now.

Jacob's POV
I looked down at My Angel and sighed. I almost wasn't here in time. I had never been as scared as I was when I heard her scream from miles away. I shuddered trying, and failing, to suppress the memory.
*Flashback:*
I was running patrols with Paul and Sam as usual. I wanted nothing more than to be with my beautiful imprint, but of course Sam had to be an asshole and make me patrol.
"Hey!", Sam's voice sounded in my head. I just snickered and continued to run.
"Would you two stop with the imprint thoughts! Stop being little bitches", Paul grounded out in his thoughts, obviously annoyed. I just growled at him along with Sam.
"Shut the fuck up Paul, I can't wait until you imprint so you can leave us the hell alone." I felt Sam silently agree, thoughts of Emily filling his mind once more.
"Not gonna happen, I happen to like being my single sexy self." I just snorted continuing my run. My thoughts were filled with Angelica and her beautiful green eyes.
All of a sudden a scream pierced the air that made my warm blood run cold. That scream made my fur stand straight up and a loud growl fill in my chest. I felt Sam and Paul have similar reactions but not nearly as strong. Sam howled alerting the others, but I hardly paid attention. I turned around and zoomed in the direction of My Angels house, pushing my legs to go faster than ever before. I felt my other brothers thoughts fill my head but couldn't focus. All I caught was Sam explain what was going on and the guys running after me, though they were farther behind.
Another scream filled the air though not as loud as the first. I barked out a snarl and pushed my legs to go faster, panicked thoughts filling my head. I smelled leech the closer I got to the house and prayed to the spirits that I wasn't too late. When the house came into view I smelled Angelica as well as heart her frantic heartbeat. I ran towards the back of the house seen the red-headed bitch with My Angel pinned beneath her, leaning in toward her neck.
Without a second thought I launched myself at the leech and she went flying toward the tree line. I put my body over Angelica's making sure she was protected and growled at the bitch as I heard my brothers approach. I heard her whisper my name and let my tail brush over her legs to let her know I had her. I wasn't going to let anyone hurt her.
*End of Flashback*
I tightened my arms around her and slid my body slightly over hers, though not putting my weight on her. She sighed and snuggled into my chest, wincing slightly. I frowned and suppressed a growl when I looked at the bruises again. The right side of her face and nose were bruised as was her wrist. I lightly ran my finger across the fingerprints that were on her wrist and sighed. I should have been there faster, than maybe she wouldn't be injured.
I would have to talk with Sam, we would have to work out a way to talk with the...Cullens, find out what they planned to do with the red-head. They started something and didn't finish it, and know it put my reason for living in danger. That wasn't okay with me. She's mine and I plan on her being around for quite some time.
I looked down at her and smiled fondly at her. She was so fucking beautiful. She fit perfectly in my arms and her skin was a flawless latte color. She looked peaceful, despite the bruises, and her hair was splayed out around the pillow. I would have to keep a closer eye on her house will on patrol from now on. Someone was always to be around in case the leech comes back.
My phone rang and I quickly reached in my pocket to answer it before it woke up My Angel. I seen on the caller I.D. it was Sam and sighed. I didn't want to leave her but I knew that's exactly what he was going to ask me to do.
"Hello", I answered, somewhat growling at him. I knew I was being an ass but I didn't care. I was still pissed about earlier. Fucking leeches.
"Jake I need you to come over. You and I need to go to the Cullens house to discuss what happened. They need to do something about this crazy bitch. I'll have Seth, Brady, and Collin stand guard around Angelica's house. Besides, you don't need to be there when her grandma gets home."
"Fine but tell the pups that if she wakes up they are to immediately let me know so I can come right back."
"I'll let them know. Meet me at the treaty line, I'll be waiting there with the rest of the Bella and tell her to tell her bloodsuckers to meet us there. I'm getting tired of their shit."
The line went dead and I sighed. I gently unwrapped my arms from their protective cage around her. When I stood up she snuggled further into the bed and curled into a ball, though even in her sleep she was careful of her knee. I pulled the blanket up and tucked her in tighter making sure she was warm. I bent down and kissed her on the forehead, my lips lingering until I heard a soft bark from outside the window, alerting me that it was safe to leave her now. I wrote a quick note and put it on the bedside table before walking out the bedroom door.
I went around the house and turned off all the lights and picking up the forgotten food in the kitchen. I locked the back door up again (Paul picked the lock form the first time I locked it) and pulled the curtains closed. I walked out the front door, locking the bottom lock behind me, and started walking into the forest. I nodded as I passed Brady on the way, giving him a pointed look. He nodded his head and laid down under Angelica's window.
When I got deeper into the forest I pulled out my phone and dialed the number I had long ago memorized. After ringing for a few moments she answered.
"Hello", Bella's voice sounded from the other end. She sounded happy and somewhat smug, pissing me off instantly. I wasn't calling cause I wanted to, believe that.
"Bella I need you to send a message to your family of leeches. Tell them to meet at the treaty line ASAP."
"What? Why? What happened?"
"Just do it! Tell them to hurry up to, I need to be somewhere else."
I hung up after that and put the phone in my pocket before taking off my shorts. I tied them around my ankle and let the heat spread through my body and felt the familiar shaking occur before I was standing on all fours and hearing my brothers voices in my head.
"There you are! Did you call her yet?", Quil asked. He was the only one who would be in their wolf form during the meeting to keep in contact with the pups. I replayed the phone call in my head and he silently gave his approval on keeping it short.
I finally got to where everyone was standing around looking tense and on alert. I shifted back and pulled on my shorts walking out from behind a tree and into the small clearing. Embry was the first to notice me and immediately came towards me.
"She okay?", he asked with concern thick in his voice. He and Angelica got along good, especially since her and Leah had become close to best friends.
"Yeah, she fell asleep. I left her a note just in case and told the pups to let me know if she wakes up." He nodded his head at me before the scent of leeches hit and we moved into positions, with Quil watching in the trees. I went to stand right next to Sam will the rest of the pack filled in slightly behind us. I seen the leeches zoom out of the trees and stand side by side. Bella was on her bloodsuckers back and I had to resist sighing. She didn't need to be here.
After Bella got of his back and positioned herself slightly behind him, the leader leech stepped forward with his arms spread in a peaceful gesture. Paul snorted at this and Jared gave a cough to cover up his chuckle. I looked to my right and back and seen Embry roll his eyes at me. I smirked and looked back ahead at the leech family. Sam was trying his damnedest not to smile but I seen the amusement in his eyes.
"What did you need to talk to my family about?", the blond leader asked. After he said that all the amusement left my body and I tensed up even more giving off a growl. It was their fault My Angel was in danger today. I felt Sam put a hand on my shoulder giving it a light squeeze. I relaxed slightly but continued to glare at them.
"Something needs to be done about this red-head. She got too close to one of our own today. You started this, and you need to finish it", Sam said in his alpha voice, making my brothers and I stand a bit straighter.
"What do you mean?", Bella asked. Sam looked over at her but before he could answer Paul stepped forward shaking slightly.
"It means that someone in our family was hurt today, dumbass", he snarled at her. Edward stepped forward and hissed at Paul and the blond leader put a restraining hand on him. Paul just raised his eyebrow at him. Paul, no matter how much of an angry asshole and a man-whore he was, was protective when it came to the pack and imprints. We were his only family.
"Paul, calm down", Sam said in a low tone, though not an order. Paul glared at Bella a few more seconds before stepping back to his stance by Jared.
"I-I meant w-who", Bella stuttered out. Edward glared at Paul, not that Paul gave a shit, he just smirked.
"An imprint", Sam stated in a hard voice. My jaw clenched and my fist balled up. I didn't even want to think about earlier, knowing I should still be laying with her, making sure she was protected.
"My apologies, but we are trying to catch Victoria. She's good at getting away though", the leech leader said in a sincere voice, though I didn't give a shit in the slightest.
"Yeah well get it under fucking control! If she's hurt again because of your shit I'm coming after you, do I make myself clear?", I snarled out to him and his family stepping forward and pointing my finger to get my point across. I was shaking and glaring at the vampires and tiny human that were responsible for hurting my imprint. Bella looked at me coldly and scowled at me.
"Jacob! Don't yell like that! I'm sure your precious Angelica is fine! You're probably just overreacting like all wolves do when their imprints are even in danger of a paper cut!", she said talking to me as if I were a child in trouble. I bared my teeth at her and growled loudly.
"Fuck you. Like I said if she is hurt in anyway ever again because of that red-headed cunt then I will come to your house and rip every single one of you apart and burn the nasty ass pieces. Get your shit together and figure out a way to get rid of her. If you aren't strong enough we'll help but only to keep our families and land safe."
The vampires got into defensive crouches and some hissed when I finished speaking but I was beyond giving a fuck. I felt like just raising my arms and saying 'come at me bro'. Paul smirked and flipped them off, Jared gave a face that said 'not bad', Embry chuckled, and I heard Quil give a bark of approval from his position in the trees. I looked over at Sam and he nodded his head.
"Well that's all that needed to be said. If you need to contact us Bella knows Jake's number. We're done here", Sam said before nodding his head toward the undead family and turning around and walking into the forest with Jared and Paul on his trail. Embry made a head motion for me to join him when he seen me still glaring. After a few more seconds of glaring I walked with him into the forest without looking back.
After shifting into wolf form Sam let everyone go home saying he would patrol with the pups. Everyone shifted out by the time I got to Angelica's. After shifting I climbed in her window and laid back into the bed and wrapping my arms in a protective cage around her once again. I heard Maw-Maw already sleeping a few doors down and knew her alarm would wake me so I could hid before she came in to check on Angelica in the morning. I felt My Angel snuggle up closer to me and rub her head in the crook of my neck, unknowingly giving into submission, making my wolf purr in content.
I rested my cheek against the top of her soft head and fell asleep within minutes, not knowing that Maw-Maw had come in and kissed us both on the head.
I probably won't update until Monday or Tuesday, but hey it's spring break!
Please leave me a review and I'm open to suggestions!
