Before I start I do realize that its been a long time since I updated. My life has been uncontrollable and just plain horrible but I got ever single review or story update alert and wanted to say thank you to every single person you made me smile. Especially tomfeltonlover1991 who got my butt in gear to update.
I knew that I wouldn't be able to calm Sue down. Lee did always have the gift of a sharp tongue. So I left Sue sobbing on the floor and approached the door as if it was a deadly animal ready to strike .I heard a loud buzzer sound then the door swung open.
I didn't look around the room from the moment she entered my line of sight I couldn't tear my eyes away from the body laid out on the floor. There is many words that could be used to describe Leah but never frail however looking at the body that's the first word that came to mind. Finally after what seemed like a lifetime the body moved.
That's all it was a body I refused to think of it as Leah it couldn't be. Leah was never so thin and dilapidated, so pale that even a vampire would look tan standing next to her and she's naturally olive anyway. Then as my eyes focused my werewolf vision seemed to zoom in on all the marks scattered along her body that a human would have missed.
I have never hated having super vision as I did rooted to that spot.
Along her wrists seemed to be lines that show she's been tied up in the same spot for a long time and her skin grew around the binds. There are needle marks that dot her arms all healed except for tiny little scars that no ordinary person could see but all of these little marks many which I still haven't focused on seem nothing compared to the road maps that seem to be carved into Leah's one tone, mile long legs. There was so many faint but still bigger deeper than the others even a 70 year old with barely any sight like old Quil would have noticed that discolouration.
I couldn't figure out what caused them, they were all obviously made by the same instrument but some were deep some shallow, some jiggered and some so clear they looked surgical. I wanted to ask I did but something stopped me.
I finally noticed her face and stumbled until my back hit the door I had just come through which I hadn't noticed close, it was Leah this wasn't a body this was LEAH!
Her face remained untouched not a single scar or mark could be seen even my eyesight couldn't pick any up but her eyes and the emotions in them made up for the lack of physical scars.
Sure she looked tired and defeated but she was the same her cheeks naturally blushed to perfection her plump lips that looked like cushions slightly marred with an indent on her lower lip from when she was young and had a tooth that slightly pointed out, she even had the same tiny little wrinkle she got above her left eyebrow which she only got when thinking really hard.
I lifted my eyebrow to ask her about it and noticed she violently flinched away. "I'm trying to think of something to say because unlike sue out there you won't run."
My heart broke at hearing her voice because it wasn't hers it was cold and lifeless. Even back when she was just a heartbroken bitter she wolf she always had life in her voice a spark that refused to go away even when she tried to sound dead she never could pull it off but now.
Now nothing!
God I'm such a coward first I can't look into her eyes because they are to alive and full of pain and now I can't hear her voice because it's too dead and lifeless?
I couldn't move I was frozen in place a look of horror on my face with my back against the door I hadn't moved except that one eyebrow, since I first realized it was Leah in her on the floor.
I noticed Leah's fingers moving so I tore my gaze from her face to look and noticed them scratching at her legs scraping them. Well I guess that explains all those lines. But that just made it worse knowing they were all self inflicted.
"So since you're not going to run you might as well sit." she mumbled so low I wasn't sure I heard her right nut sunk to the ground anyway.
"How's La Push?" It seemed like Leah was doing all the talking so I finally cleared my throat ignoring her question I asked, "What's it like in here? What do they do to you? Is it helping?" once I started I couldn't stop the questions.
Leah simply help up her hands if you could call them that they looked more like sticks, " don't ask me that you're not ready for the answer please." I nodded hell if I could barely look at her I definitely couldn't hear about how she got this way.
So I lent back and decided to answer her question and pretend we were anywhere but in here. "La Push for a while was hard a lot of questions about where you were, when you'd be back but they stopped soon enough. Everyone found out, we don't know how I swear i tried to find out who did it but no one knows or if they do they aren't owning up to it. Urm the Cullen's are back they well some aren't friendly towards Sam or his pack mainly its Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett who are most angry. They feel betrayed by Sam on your behalf and always pull schemes and pranks on him and made his life hell as revenge for a while till Carlisle put a stop to it. Jasper and Alice even separated because Alice sided with Bella and said sending you away was the right thing to do. She's now dating Collin. Carlisle and Esme even got the Volturi involved in stopping them three in there attempts to get you out as Rosalie ended up getting arrested. So now Alice is keeping an eye on them and has to report to the Volturi if they come up with any plans to help you."
Deep down I knew this isn't what she wanted to hear but I was making it as pg as possible and I just kept talking waiting for something to register on her face but It never did so I kept up my monologue.
"So that settled down now. The pack is fine Seth imprinted actually the day you came here so he had someone to help him through so he um didn't really get that affected you know him just focused on the positive that he imprinted not the negatives like um... you." I mumbled realizing what I had just said I took a peak at Leah's face and still not one muscle has moved not on single thing she seems frozen. "Things are good now settled back to being the same as before well maybe a little different but most people are happier now then when you were still around even Embry imprinted and is getting married."
"And you?" Leah whispered I heard her heart stutter.
"Me? Well I'm great I can't remember if you know but I imprinted on Bella's daughter her name is super long and stupid so I just call her Nessie. She's perfect, pale with curly auburn hair that shimmers and shines."
That got a reaction.
Leah's eyes opened half a millimetre them her hands started scrubbing at her legs harder and faster chunks of skin why falling on her unnaturally thin legs and she was screaming.
Screaming and shrieking.
A huge man opened the door and came charging in he looked around for a split second then pulled a needle out of his back pocket and stuck it into Leah's neck she passed out a second later and fell forward onto the man's shoes and instead of pushing her softly off or he grabbed a huge baton that was in his belt and hit her off.
Leah flew across the room and slammed into the door I could see the bruise already start to form on her head. I took surveyed the room for half a second then ran out with tears in my eyes vowing I would get her out of here.
Picking up Sue (who now seemed incapable of walking) I looked over my shoulder and just before the door slammed shut I spotted leah still passed out but that wasn't what caught me attention and made my step faulter it was what she was wearing on her hand. I couldn't believe it before but not it stood out clearly from the blood that covered her hands it was a carved wooden ring.
It had wolves at the front one boy because (which was a plain wolf) and one girl (which had long eyelashes and a bow on her ear) they were facing each other with their tails were oversized and wrapped around the ring then on the back the ends on the tails curved to form a love heart.
I knew all these details not because my sight was that good but because I had carved it for her when we were 12.
