"Thought-Speak"
D/C: I do not own, or wish to claim ownership of the characters from Stephenie Meyer's books. I'm just writing this story for fun, my characters and plot are mine, there may be some elements from other Fanfic stories I have read but no direct copying.
A/N: This chapter is longer than the rest so far. I could not find good points to break it up like I did for Ch1 and Ch2. I upload the first Five chapters to give you something to read while I was working on Ch8. If anyone is reading my story I would like feedback to know if I should upload to it more often, and would anyone be willing to look over my pre-upload preview of the next chapter let me know?
Chapter 6: Red The Room
Back in my truck, I saw that the Cullen's cars were gone, starting the truck I drove home.
At home, I parked in the garage and cleaned out the drinks from the cab and bed. Locking up the garage I headed into the house and dropped off my keys, coat, and bags. Walking back outside, I headed into the trees.
In the trees I shifted into my full 6′ quadruped wolf form, crimson red, with the amber underline sparkling in the light of day, my eyes Indigo with the back glow of Dark Violet. Bunching up my legs muscles and digging claws into the ground I launch deeper into the forest heading for the road outside the school to track the Silver Impala LTZ.
The ten miles took me eight minutes to travel. Sniffing the area I found Edythe's scent. Running after it, leading me twenty miles following the roads, I slowed down as I headed for a dirt driveway that led to a large clearing.
In the clearing was a two story white house, with a window around it and a connected four vehicle wide garage.
With my claws retracted I walked up to the front door, silent as the wind. Calming my breathing and my heart.
I stepped onto the porch and hit the doorbell with my muzzle. Then I stepped back off the porch, as the bells rang through the house.
I was standing there when the door opened before the bells stopped. A caramel haired 5′6″ woman with very white skin and golden eyes was on the other side.
The moment she took in my appearance she got a terrified look on her face and closed the door rather aggressively. She ended up closing the door so hard the door's frame cracked along the house's frame.
In the house, I could hear footsteps thunder down from the second floor. "Esme, what is wrong?" Edward's voice sounded from the house. "Carlisle, a wolf just rang the doorbell, and is standing outside." I heard a collective gasp from the house. Then the sound of someone running down the stairs and towards the door. The door opened, then preceded to fall out of its frame onto the porch with a *Bang*.
The man at the door is 6′2″ blond and his eyes are golden with white skin. As he was opening his mouth Edward spoke from inside the house. "Alice, you knew this is coming?" "Yes, I was asked not to say anything about this." Alice stated.
"My name is Carlisle Cullen. I do not know who you are. We have not broken the treaty we have with you. Why have you come?"
This must be the head of the house, I was just opening my mind to talk to him when Several voices in the house shouted. "EMMETT, NO."
Emmett launched himself from the door of the garage. I growled, changing my expression with teeth and claws coming out.
Instead of running like he expected, I lunged at him. I pinned him to the ground, front claw sinking into his forearms, back into his thighs. His blood started flowing from the points my claws were in his flesh.
"NO" a new female voice screamed. Not looking up I brought my muzzle down and closed it around Emmett's throat, but not snapping it shut. So my teeth were pressed onto his skin but not breaking it.
"(Red) Carlisle, control your children or I will put them down, starting with this one. I'm not here because of your treaty with the Quileute wolves." I let a deep growl emanate from my thought-speak.
"Rose, everyone stay back, he will kill Emmett if we approach him."
"(Red) I came here to talk with you Carlisle, not to have your son jump me for the second time. I will let him go if you promise he will not break the decree on attacking, another supernatural being unprovoked."
"Emmet, he will let you go if you promise not to attack other supernatural beings unprovoked," Carlisle said.
"Why should I make such a promise?" He hissed. I decided it was best to talk to everyone.
"(Red) your father has neglected to tell you that Vampires are not the superior supernatural being living in this world. The Vampire king started a wave of killing of any mortal that knew of their existence. The Volturi sent hundreds of their guards out. They found a village that knew of Vampires and killed a family.
This family was a descendant of the Fae and their daughter was mated to a Dragon Heirs. The Fae and Dragons took this as a declaration of war. The Dragon Heirs burned the force to cinders, and the Dragon Guardian called for the aid of the Wolf Guardian and the Fae's Champion.
The three of us wiped out hundreds of the Volturi guards. We had the kings pinned, inside their throne room and made them sight a contract and the decree. The other supernatural race could dictate restrictions on Vampire feeding in areas they claim, like the Volturi do in Volterra. Supernatural beings could not attack one another unprovoked, if this happened the defender could kill the other without punishment." I finished my little tail, still standing on top of Emmett.
"Carlisle, you know about this decree?" "No, I know the Volturi removed a lot of their guards, saying that they could not control that many. It could be that this war and decree are kept a secret.
I removed myself from Emmett and walked back to stand near Edythe, she did not look to jump me or run off.
Rose ran over to Emmett and helped him up, the holes in his forearms, and legs were closing up. "I'm sorry Rose, I just saw a wolf and had to try and catch it. I did not know it was some supernatural creature. Emmett said, gritting his teeth in pain.
"You're an idiot, how do you not figure out that a 6′ wolf could be a werewolf, that It could have torn you apart." Rose told Emmett, pulling him into a hug.
Standing next to Edythe I looked at Carlisle but spoke to everyone. "(Red) my name is Red, I'm the Wolf Guardian, that is, the Werewolfs call on me if there is a problem they need help with. I can also be called on by a guardian from any other race.
I'm here because one of the young Quileute wolves goes through his first change. A source told me that he crosses the La Push border and will attack the girl next to me."
"They can not do that, the treaty." Carlisle said calmly, while the rest started arguing about how the treaty means nothing to the new tribe.
"(Red) This is why I'm here, yes the treaty you have with them would prevent this. I do not have power over it, but the bigger problem is that the young wolf attacks her unprovoked. This means I would have to punish him for breaking the decree."
"How is that a bigger problem than breaking the treaty?" Edythe asked from next to me. Turning my head to look at her.
"(Red) if he attacked you, I would have to hold the whole wolf tribe responsible. I could kill the young wolf or have his power stripped from him. The tribal elder and the not yet changed wolf would be restricted to La Push, they would not be able to leave without my permission."
"You have that kind of power, overall Werewolfs," Carlisle asked. I nodded my head.
"What are you going to do to stop the black wolf from getting my sister?" Alice said, coming to stand in front of me, her mate practically glued to her side. I sat, to make it easy to look down at her
"(Red) Well, young Fairy, I'm going to intercept him and ask him to stay in La Push. If that doesn't work I'll use my power as an Alpha to make him leave."
"I'm not a Fairy," Alice scolded me. She stepped forward and placed her right hand on the left side of my face, Alice was staring into my eyes and she smiled.
"(Alice) Can you hear me and can Edward?"
"(Red) Yes I can hear you and I'm now blocking Edward and Edythe from your mind. What can I do for you, Alice?"
"(Alice) I know who you are clairvoyant." I gave her a wolf grin.
"(Red) I would appreciate it if you did not give me away, I will tell her when I'm ready."
"(Alice) You would need to put a block on me. But could you not block Jasper?" "(Red) I can put one on you for eight hours or less." "(Alice) Two hours please." "(Red) Ok it's done, anything else." I should not have said that because Alice began running her hand down my face over my fur.
With a mischievous grin, Alice looked over at Edythe. "Edythe, you have to touch this fur, It's so nice." Alice gave a pleading look aimed at both of us.
"Alice, you should not offer him up for pets." Carlisle said.
"Red does not mind if you touch him." Alice said to Edythe.
"(Alice) He probably would enjoy it more, if you were doing this."
"(Red) Alice, I can still hear your scheming inner thoughts. She gave me a knowing smile and removers her hand
"(Red) Carlisle, I'll be staying here to keep an ear out for the black wolf. Emmett will need to drink blood to get those wounds to heal up completely. I did not poison him but they will not heal fast."
While taking to Carlisle, Edythe ran her left hand through my fur, I couldn't help it I lean into her and let out a low pleasing growl. The rest of the family just stared, with shocked expressions, all except Alice and Esme. "[Beautiful and so soft.]" Edythe whispered, still running her hand down my side.
Esme spoke up for the first time. "Ok everyone let's go inside, Emmett, no um Jasper can you move the door out of the way?" She began heading for the house pulling her mate by the arm.
The rest of the family all head inside. Edythe stopped touching me and started walking into the house. I followed her inside, she headed up the stairs.
The rest of the family watched a 6′ wolf walk through the living room and up the stairs after their sister. "Mom, Dad, there is a wolf in the house." The three boys said at the same time.
I looked down, Esme and Carlisle looked at each other and said at the same time "We Know." Alice giggled as I made it to the top of the stairs.
Edythe opens a door to a bedroom, "Wait here for a minute." She held up her hand in a stop motion, then slipped into the room and closed the door.
The second floor was just a hallway lined with doors and a large window on one end. I could hear the opening and closing of drawers from inside the room. Not even a minute passed when Edythe opened the door. She waved me in.
The room was kind of small for my current size. "(Red) Would you like me to reduce my overall size to fit this room better?"
Edythe closed the door behind me when she turned and saw me taking up a good portion of the room, I was bigger than her love seat. My tail already knocked some of the books off the shelves.
"You can do that?" "(Red) Yes, that is how I blend in with the average wolfs that live around here, this is my true size and color.
"Show me, but keep your beautiful fur color." she said in a lovely voice. Alice laughed somewhere down the hall.
I began to shift my size down from 6′ to 3′ proportion wolf. Edythe's eyes went wide as I shrank down. "That is still big for a wolf living in Fork"
"(Red) I know that, but now I fit in this room better and don't want to be too much smaller than you." I said with my wolf grin.
Edythe picked up a book and sat on the right side of the love seat. She patted her leg. "Come on, sit up here."
I completely retraced my claws, coiled up on the left side, and placed my head in her lap. She was wearing a short sleeve light green shirt that hugged her frame tightly. Had on dark navy blue jeans that were a normal close fit but not tight around her legs.
Edythe began running her left hand from the top of my head to the center of my back. In her right hand was the book we were reading for English class.
"(Red) Ms. Cullen, I'm in your room with my head on your lap and you have not told me your name. Also, your brother is trying to break into my mind, if he doesn't stop I'll give him a migraine."
"Edward, stop trying to read the wolf's mind." Edythe said towards the door.
The pressure on my barrier stopped. "My name is Edythe, what is your name?" she said, looking down at my head.
Bronze hair was falling around her breast, eyes were bright gold from feeding, and her skin was pale. No longer wearing the fake tan spray, she smelled so good.
"(Red) I'm Grand-Alpha Wolf Guardian, but just call me Red. It's a more modern name. Your brother stopped his snooping, would you like me to block your mind too?"
"Yes, please block my mind from my nosey brothers. Could you tell if the black wolf that attacks me is Jason Harrison?" I tried not to stiffen up when she said my current human name.
"(Red) Edythe, there is not a rule about revealing another supernatural being, but you can lose trust with the others. For a Guardian to do this without a probable reason is even worse. We have power because of the trust we have with all the races. Sorry, but I will not reveal another's identity without permission. Just as I will not go around announcing that Dr. Cullen and his family are Immortal Vampires."
"I don't like it, but I understand about telling secrets that are not yours to tell. Will you tell me who you are then?" I lifted my head off her lap, shook it, and laid it back down.
"Red, I'm going to read my book and continue this." she was back to petting me.
It was strange that Mr. and Mrs. Cullen would let me just walk into their house and follow Edythe into her room. Why would Edythe let me into her room and lay so close to her? We just met and I just attacked her brother. Now she was reading that book about a Vampire girl eating her Werewolf lover.
Looking around the room I saw the book. I knocked off the dress with my tail when I came in. One of the books was Charles Perrault, Little Red Riding Hood 1697. I made a Sighing noise. The true story of what happened to Ms. Hood is sadder.
Listening I could hear Edythe breathing in and out even though she doesn't need to. The rest of the family were murmuring downstairs so quietly that I could not make out their words.
The only one I could hear was Dr. Cullen talking down the hall, probably on the phone with someone.
"[You're telling me you have come across a restricted hunting zone before.]" Dr. Cullen went quiet waiting for his answer. "[Ok, I understand you have heard of this restricted zone in Nantahala National Forest.]" "[ Have you heard of a restricted zone here in Forks?]"
"[You have. There was one in Olympic National Park from 1203 to 1692, Then was placed under restricted hunting again in 1861. The restriction is still in place now. Do you know who enforces the restrictions?]"
"[You do not, ok thank you for the information bye Tanya."] The sound of the phone being placed back on the hook sounded.
The sound of Dr. Cullen padding by the door and down the stairs could be heard. He most likely went to talk with the rest of the family.
Edythe was still running her left hand down the top of my head and holding the book in her right. "What is with the sigh, what are you thinking about?"
"(Red) I'm thinking about what I'm going to do about the young wolf that attacks you, I'm also thinking about what your family is talking about."
"Why don't we just head down and find out?" Edythe set her book down on a table next to the seat. She started to get up, I moved my head, and stuck my right front leg through the middle of her legs. I lean my head against her breast.
Edythe went completely still, not even breathing anymore. She felt cold like laying with my head against a concrete floor. With my strength and weight, I was able to press into her, she was soft and smelled wonderful.
I closed my eyes, seeing her so close like this I was tempted to shift human and wrap my arm around her.
"Red, what are you doing?" She was not angry, she sounded like she was flustered. Without the sound of her heart, I could not tell.
"(Red) Stopping you from leaving. I don't feel comfortable around your family. Your father seems more intrigued than anything else. Your Mother was terrified of me the first time she saw me, then I nearly tore out one of her son's throat, Emmett's mate would like to jump me for that. Edward kept glaring at me like he loved to strangle me or something. Jasper just hovers around Alice like I'm going to suddenly try and eat her. Alice just gives me a devilish smile and giggles."
"You pick all that up from spending less than ten minutes with them and not even talking to most of them. What about me?"
"(Red) Yes I can pick up on this quickie with survival instincts. You are the stranger one. When I got off of Emmett and stood next to you, you did not fidget, move away or try to grab me. Alice told you to run your hand down my fur, not even asking me or hesitate you did it. I even leaned into you like I'm doing now and have not pushed or moved away from me."
"[I'm not afraid you will hurt me. As for leaning into my breasts I rather like it.]" She wrapped her arms around my middle pulling me tighter to her chest. I moaned, she lost her grip on me probably thinking she was holding too tightly.
I could not take it anymore, I completely shielded this room from the eyes of the others like Alice, Edward, and Jasper.
Twisting in Edythe's grip I shift into my 6′ Lycan form, with long red fur covering my body with the muscle of a Lycan. I did not form hands with claws, just human shaped hands. I wrapped my muscled arms around Edythe's waist.
Edythe gasped out in a whisper "[ What are you?]" I smiled at her and opened my mouth slightly.
"[ I'm not a Werewolf Edythe, I'm what is called a Lycan, we have three forms Lycan, Wolf, Human. Also, Lycans are born Lycans, Lycanthropes are born Human.]"
"Amazing," Edythe said, looking into my eyes and running her hands up my back to rest on to the side of my face. "[You can talk in this form?]" She asked in more astonishment.
"[Yes, this form lets me do more than just talk.]" I Said with a smile "[Ow, like what?]" She whispered.
I did not answer that, instead, I slid my hand up the back of her green shirt to her bra strap, leaning my head forward opened my mouth, and started kissing her. I could tell she was surprised by this for a few seconds. About to pull away Edythe began kissing me back. My heart was pounding so fast and loud I'm sure the rest of the house could hear it.
We were fully making out and I was trying to find the clip on her bra. She must've figured out what I was feeling for.
"[Red, it clips in the front]'' She moaned through our kissing, Just as I was slipping my hand around, a knock sounded at the bedroom door.
We both disentangled ourselves and I quickly shifted back into the 3′ wolf form. Edythe stood up from the love seat and began straightening her outfit reaching under her shirt to fix the bra.
"Edythe, Would you and the wolf come down so we can discuss something. Esme's voice came from the other side of the door. "Ok, Mom" Edythe was able to say this in a normal tone.
I would not be able to do that, my heart was still too loud. "(Red) Why did she knock? Do you think they suspect we were doing something?" I ask Edythe.
"I do not think so, my mother was raised in a time of courtesy and knocking before waiting to be let in, not barging into rooms like my sister. Wait, why did Alice or Edward, not barge in here before we started?"
"(Red) What do you mean before we started? Your brother could not read your mind or mine, why would he barge in?"
"Alice should have had a vision of us making out and Edward would have read her mind." Edythe explained.
"(Red) Before I shifted into my Lycan form I shielded this entire room from their power, Alice's ability to see the future, Edward's mind reading, and Jasper's empath abilities."
I was now standing near the door waiting for Edythe to open it. It would not be hard for me to open but not damaging the door in the process would be hard. She started walking towards the door.
"Are you still shielding me from my sibling abilities?" "(Red) Yes, I'm still shielding you. Do you want me to stop?" I turned to look at her.
"No, keep doing it." She said as she opened the door.
