Hey guys!
Sorry, you might have gotten a notification of a chapter being posted called "Naked Truth."
Well that was on accident, it was actually the previous chapter which I accidentally uploaded again.
So, here's the real one!
And…
I haven't been on here in for-fucking-ever!
Sorry about that.
I don't have any excuse.
No computer troubles.
No life altering event.
No sickness in the family.
Or any good reason as to why I haven't updated.
So without futher ado...
I own nothing!
Except Casey!
Casey POV
The week drug by slower than I thought was possible. It was finally Friday and I was taking Bella directly home for her to pack her stuff for the weekend. I had thought about taking her home to the Imperial City but I could get very easily caught and be exiled for the rest of my life which would be very difficult to rule once I was ready. So I decided to take her to Victoria in Canada. We could get back quickly if something was wrong but it was far enough away too. It was also kinda ironic. I wish I could be a fly on the wall when Bella tells Edward where we went. Which I could if I wanted to but Edward would be able to tell I was there.
I walked out of my last class to wait by my car for Bella. All my stuff was already at the hotel that I had booked for us so I just had to teleport Bella, her stuff and myself into the hotel room. Bella came out with Edward holding her hand as they walked. I could feel Edward poking at my mind but I pushed my shield forward expanding it making him stumble slightly. I had been getting stronger for some reason that I couldn't identify and it worried me a bit but I tried not to think about it too much.
"Ready to go Bella?" I asked.
She nodded and kissed Edward quickly before walking to the passenger side.
"Edward I know you're worried about her but I'll keep her safe," I said softly. I could feel the pain that he was in and it made me actually feel bad for him. What is wrong with me?
"How do I know that? You're with Jacob and have your loyalties to them. You might want to get rid of her so your pack of dogs isn't in danger anymore," he said glaring at me.
"I also have loyalties, as you put it, to Carlisle. I would never intentionally hurt him and if I did happen to hurt Bella, that would hurt you which would hurt Esme, who I still, feel a tie to, which in turn would hurt Carlisle. So you don't have to worry about me hurting her. The only thing you have to worry about is her realizing how much you control her and not letting you do that anymore," I said barely keeping my voice down to keep Bella from hearing.
He sent a glare at me and walked to his car before driving away.
I walked around to my side and climbed in.
"Are you ever going to be able to get along with him?" she asked sadly staring after his car.
"Most likely not. I have a lot to hide and he wants to know it," I said. And the fact that he is a complete asshole.
"Does Jacob know about all that you're hiding?"
I sighed and my body slouched a bit, "No, that's why I put off the Bonding. I need to tell him everything but I'm just so scared."
"Why?" Bella asked looking over at me.
"Bella, I've had to do things that… that no person should ever have to do and I'm afraid that Jacob will look at me different. He'll see me as a monster for what I've done."
"What have you done?" she asked.
"I… I'll tell you later tonight once we get to our destination," I said sensing that Edward was right outside Bella's house. Asshole would blab it all to Jake and I want to be the one to tell him.
"Ok," she said.
"Charlie won't be home for a couple of hours right?"
"He works until midnight," she said.
I pulled into the driveway and we went up to Bella's room. I started pulling all sorts of clothes out of her closet and throwing them into her bag that she pulled out. She actually had a lot of clothes that could be an awesome outfit and most of them already had the tags off. They were defiantly not clothes that Alice would have picked but they would still be Bella. Her clothes were all packed and she grabbed her toiletries before we zipped up her bag.
"Ok, let's go!" I said.
"How are we going to get to were ever we're going?"
"We have to walk a short distance into the forest where I have a sort of portal set up. We'll just use that," I said guiding her into the forest sensing that Edward was following us.
The form of travel that we were using was kinda crude but was extremely accurate as to where it dropped you. The form that I normally took wasn't normally as accurate with more that one person.
I showed her to stand within a circle of stones with four candles pointing to north, south, east and west. I walked around the circle with my finger following the stones around us. White light spilled from my finger onto the stones making them glow white. I walked back into the center with Bella and lit the four candles with the flick of the wrist.
"Accipelumenrapeadlocumvelim!" I said in Latin. The stones glowed brighter as the fire on the candles shot higher looking like pillars of flame. I felt Edward running at us but the light reached a blinding level and I covered Bella's eyes before we disappeared.
We reappeared a second later within our hotel room I had booked.
"Where are we?" she asked looking around.
"We're in Victoria, Canada. Kind of ironic, I know, but there is a lot to do here and this is the last place Victoria would look for you."
We spent the whole weekend shopping, going to the spa, doing girl's nights and staying up till three in the morning before it was Sunday and we had to leave. Me and Bella bonded but I knew that we would never be especially close until she finally got a back bone and said no to Edward. She just went along with what other people wanted but even though that was true, she still had a fun time and said she wanted to do it again. She even joked that we should try and get the guys to do it too. We were packing up when Bella stopped and looked like she wanted to say something.
"Bella spit it out," I said softly. My words could be harsh but my voice didn't have to be.
"What are you afraid of telling Jacob? You said you would tell me," she said.
I sighed and sat next to her, "Bella just please, try and look at me the same after I tell you ok?"
She nodded and I took a deep breath.
"I'll just give you one story, there's too many and that's part of the reason that it's so bad but I'll tell you the worst one. You know about how in the Imperial City we have missions?" she nodded. "Well, I was given a 9 rank mission. The second highest given. It was a mission that I was given alone and a highly classified one until it was finished and even then not many people know about it. My mission was to go into another country and assassinate the leader. I flew in and signed up as a serving maid to the man. There was a second part of my job. I wasn't really supposed to assassinate him, I was to kill his family and bring him back to the City. It was late at night and I went to their child's bedroom first. I had made the mistake of getting close to her and if I didn't kill her I would most likely be imprisoned or worse. So I went to her room and she was awake and asked me to sing her a song so she could go to sleep," I started getting choked up as I pictured what I had done. Neck bent at the wrong angle. Blood spilling from smooth perfect skin. Pure white sheets stained crimson red. "I sang to her until she was asleep when I killed her as quickly as possible. I moved onto her older brother's room and killed him as well with a bit of a fight." Furniture toppled over. Curtains ripped from their place. Throwing knives scattered around the room. Spots of blood on the floor. Arms at unnatural angles. Unseeing eyes staring. "I made it to the leader's room and his wife who I killed before she could make a sound and took him back to the city where I had to torture him." Beautiful hair matted with blood. Cream silk nightgown turned red. The cry of a loved one lost. I couldn't go on. I normally shut off my humanity during a mission so that I didn't hate myself after it was completed. But still, I hated what I did and hated that our City did this to us but we were the world wide police force. We did more in a day than the United Nations did in a year.
"Casey it doesn't sound so bad," Bella said.
"That's because you didn't see the blood or the look in their eyes as they died. The begging for their life. Bella, in some ways I'm like a psycho-killer. I can turn off my conscience for a time but it makes my morals weaker and allows me to do things that make most people sick to think about. For Jake, who protects people from harm, I'm like a vampire killing without feeling," I said my heart feeling like a stone in my chest weighing me down. My hand clenched into tight fists trying to keep my emotions in check. My body shaking with the emotions that I was trying to keep contained.
"But you're his imprint, he'll forgive you," she said.
"Bella that's only when I'm in my goddess form. He can easily be angry at me and stay angry when I look like this," I said. I couldn't confront him when I knew he wouldn't be able to be angry. It wasn't right to control his emotions like that when he really needed to know something and be able to react in his way instead of what the imprint told him to act like. I refused to do that to him.
"I guess," she said.
"We need to get going. Hold onto my hand ok? And keep a hold of your bag too."
I felt my power swell within me as Selene gave me some of hers as well so I wouldn't be so weak. The power pushed its way into Bella making her gasp. It was different from how we got here. Just as the power was becoming too much for me to control it burst and sent our molecules apart and flying through the air to Bella's house. They snapped back together behind her house making both of us kinda unsteady on our feet.
"Wow, that was different," Bella said sitting on the ground from dizziness.
"Yeah, you get used to it. You'll want to take some pain killers tonight by the way. It makes your bones ache later on the first couple of times," I said helping her up.
"Ok, thanks," she said. We walked back to her house before I climbed into my car and drove back to Jacob's. He wasn't there when I got in so I walked into the forest and started training. I pulled earth from the ground and firing at tree trying to make holes in the trees with spikes I was making with the rock. I worked and trained, jumping from tree to tree, practicing punches and kicks, using my elements after three hours I was out of breath and sweaty in the cold air, my breaths leaving mist in the air. Anything to try and make me forget about what I had shared with Bella and what I knew I had to share with Jake eventually. I heard something running towards me sending out my senses realizing it was Embry running patrol.
He skidded to a halt when he saw me, Jake is going to kill me when he realizes I saw you before he did after you've been gone for a weekend.
I laughed, "Don't worry Embry. I'm heading home anyway. I'll make sure he feels more loved," I said walking away into the trees.
TMI, he thought before continuing on.
I came out of them outside of Jake's house where he had just stepped outside.
"Jacob!" I yelled running at him and jumping onto him wrapping my arms and legs around him as our lips attacked each other. He stumbled backwards slightly from the impact of my body but used that to turn me around and press me into the wall right next to the door. "Jake, the neighbors," I said when he deepened the kiss stroking my lips with his tongue.
"Fuck the neighbors," he said silencing me with a bruising kiss. "God, I missed you." His kisses traveled down my neck to the juncture of shoulder and neck where he sucked the skin into his mouth nibbling it slightly sending ripples of pleasure through my body. My hand tangled itself into his hair to keep his lips there as I tilted my head to give him more room. His hands moved down my body to my hips as his ground into mine.
"Jacob, I would prefer if my grandchildren weren't conceived on my front porch," Billy said chuckling. "I know you missed her but let Casey breathe."
I actually was having trouble breathing thanks to my erratic heartbeat.
"Sorry dad," Jacob said smirking a little but letting me down onto my feet.
"Good to see you Casey," Billy said.
"You too Billy," I said going over and hugging him tightly making Jacob growl lowly. "Oh, chill Jake. I'm just hugging your dad," I scolded giving a gentle glare.
Jake smiled sheepishly shrugging, "I can't really help it, Case. Especially with you gone for a whole weekend. I just imagine what I would do to the guy who saw you before I did."
"Good thing Embry was a wolf," I said under my breath hoping Jake wouldn't hear.
"What?"
No such luck.
"I was training cause you weren't home yet and Embry was running patrols and accidently found the clearing I was training in," I said quickly. "He told me to go home quickly so you wouldn't kill him. We didn't even touch! No pat or anything! I didn't even wave!" I said trying to save Embry's hide since he was one of my favorite wolves of the pack.
"Son, he saw her so what? She came here to find you first. Don't let the imprint make you so damn protective," Billy said being the voice of reason.
"You're right," Jake said still sounding like he wanted to murder Embry.
"You should know you're my favorite guy and or wolf," I said kissing his lips softly.
He smiled and pulled me into his arms against his strong broad chest. "I really missed you," I said hearing Billy go back into the house.
"Me too, Case. Please don't leave again it actually hurts," he said holding me tighter against him. I nodded and turned my face into his chest breathing in his scent making feel at home and completely safe. I loved feeling his skin against mine. So soft and warm, warming me to the core and keeping me that way.
"I love you," I whispered against his skin.
"I love you too, more than you can imagine," he said kissing my head.
"Casey!" someone yelled.
I leaned slightly away from Jake and saw Leah jogging up the driveway.
"Lee!" I yelled smiling and pulled away from Jake to go and hug her. I liked Bella and all but things had gotten awkward between us and very dry. With me and Leah we joked, made sarcastic comments, and always had a fun time. Our arms wrapped around each other as we hugged each other tightly before Leah let go.
"You cannot leave me alone with these idiots again! They were always fighting over food and Emily was being Miss Perfect Little Fiancé …"
"Leah," I started.
"I know, I know. No bashing but it's a lot harder not to when you're not here to keep me from moping," she said pouting.
"That may work on guys Lee but it doesn't work cause I use it too," I said laughing.
"Damn it! My perfect plan foiled!"
"What was your plan?" I asked.
"To get you in my bed," she said shrugging like it was obvious.
I heard Jake growl behind me.
"Oh, cool it Jacob! I'm only kidding. I'm completely straight," Leah said glaring at Jake.
"He growled at Billy when I hugged him," I said.
"Possessive much, Jacob?" Leah asked him.
"She was gone for the weekend," he whined.
"Yeah, and she's here now," Leah said.
"I didn't know where she was."
"I was in Victoria, Canada. I wasn't too far away Jake. I wouldn't go somewhere that you couldn't get to me easily," I said staring into his eyes.
He nodded looking a little ashamed. I smiled at him making his face lighten back up.
"Come on you two! We better get to Sam's so the rest of the pack can all tackle you," Leah said dragging me to the forest with Jake following behind us. As they phased to their and took off to Sam's and Emily's with me running beside them I looked forward to seeing the pack. I didn't want to admit it but I had missed their childish antics. It would be a perfect conclusion to a great weekend.
Fooled you all didn't I?
:)
So, do you guys just want a little smut chapter about the pack and all the pack love?
Or do just want me to get on with the plot?
Let me know!
