Chapter 10:
Jake POV
Damn it. I was supposed to spend all day in bed with Bella. She may not have known that but I planned to inform her of it as soon as I got her alone. Now she was off playing with her horse and I was chasing a damn leech through the woods.
/Jake we got trouble./
I looked in Seth’s mind and saw it. Them. They had been chasing one. They were now surrounded by three leeches. Shit.
/We are almost there. Hang on./
Leah shot forward, panic clouding her mind at seeing her brother outnumbered with our youngest wolf for a partner. Normally I would never have these two patrol together but they were only supposed to be together for an hour. Long enough for us to help Old Quil get his crap moved back in. Get Bella’s horse settled.
Bad decision Jake.
We got to Seth and Brady. Brady had a leech on him and Seth was pulling him off with his teeth. Leah took the one that was jumping towards Seth.
I locked eyes with the third one.
And recognized him.
I had seen his picture in Charlie’s office last week when I picked him up from work. A Forks kid that went missing in Seattle, nearly six months ago. Riley Biers.
He had her scent on him. But she was just… her shirt. The fucker had a shirt in his hand. It must be hers.
He smiled and winked at me. Then he was gone. Fuck that.
/Sam, finish these two. I’m going after him./
/Watch your back Jake. We will be right behind you./ Sam responded.
I kept an eye on the battle while following Bier’s trail. The two vampires were savage. One nearly bit Embry. I had to trust my Pack to do their job.
Riley Biers. Seattle. Seattle killings. Strong savage vampires. Increased attacks locally. Different vampires all the time.
The Red head. She must be turning vampires in Seattle to get to Bella. Bella was back and three vampires make a move to break into her house and steal her scent.
I had to get this son of a bitch.
He wasn’t that far ahead.
I heard him. He… screamed? Then nothing.
I smelt something.
I could smell… smoke?
I jumped over a small hill and saw a clearing. In the middle of the clearing was the burning body of Riley Biers. His head was a few feet from his body also slowly burning. His head had been sliced clean off his head. I looked around to see what vampire was around who could have done this. My first thought was a Cullen had come onto our land.
I smelt nothing. No. I did smell something. A feint sent. Was it her shirt? No. Her shirt was still in Bier’s hand, the edges burning.
I sniffed around the edge and caught it. No doubt about it. The smell of my mate and a horse. Horse tracks were in the soft ground.
The others were finishing the two vampires. I needed to clear my thoughts. But Bella and I would be having a discussion later.
BPOV
I heard the howl and waited for the pack to run off. As soon as they had their backs to me I ran for Thunder. Her nostrils flared. She knew.
“Bella they can handle it.” I heard Quil say.
“Get my hat off the ground please and get me some clothes ready.” Chris always kept an extra set of clothes for me. I had gotten over my modesty issues in regard to the armor and what little it covered at times and how skin tight it could be, especially in the crotch area. Clothes just got in the way.
I jumped on Thunder and we took off. She didn’t have a saddle and didn’t need on. I carried one with me.
The armor wrapped around my body ripping my clothes and boots. Oops. Forgot to take them off. I burned the remainder of my clothes off my body. Placing my right hand on Thunder the armor flowed over her, covering her head and wrapping around her upper body and legs, making our makeshift saddle. I felt the armor attach to her and we picked up speed. Soon we were moving as fast as the wolves.
I looked into their heads and saw what they were seeing. Three of the bastards.
The pack engaged two of them. One escaped. He had my… shirt? Fucker had my shirt? I liked that shirt! He had been in my house. Victoria knew I was back and sent someone to grab my scent. Oh sweetie I could have saved you the trouble. You will be smelling my scent up close soon enough.
Jake took off after him by himself. Of course he did.
I circled around, Thunder weaving through the trees like she had lived here her whole life. The power running through both of us gave me such a rush. There he was. He was looking back. Looking for Jake. He should have been looking ahead. Always be aware of your surroundings leech.
The sword formed in my hand. Nope. A little longer. There it is.
He turned at the last split second and saw us. He screamed. I suppose we did make a strange sight. A woman covered in skin tight demonic armor and a horse the appeared to be straight from the Crusades. I would love to show off, but if Jake saw me, his mind would not be able to keep it from the Pack. The leech came to a stop.
I didn’t. Riding to his right side I sliced his fucking head off, never breaking stride.
Thunder pulled up. If it weren’t for the armor merging us I may have fallen off. We trotted back and I reached out with my hand.
Drawing energy from the Earth I sent a blast of electrical energy towards his body and watched it light up. I drew the fire up and sent a ball towards his head.
Damn. I forgot to get my shirt. It would have smelled like leech anyway. Jake would hate it.
I heard my man coming. Damn I would love to see him as a wolf. I suppose there will be plenty of time for that.
I took off and arrived back at Quils five minutes later, circling around the back. I drew the armor off of Thunder and dismounted, walking in quickly. Quil took a look at me shook his head and handed me clothes. I ran to the bathroom and changed.
Walking out Chris and Quil were sitting at the kitchen table waiting for me.
“What?”
“Seriously? You think the Pack couldn’t have handled that? You took a risk. If they see you, Cullen is going to catch it in one of their minds. They all cannot possibly hide their thoughts as well as Sam and Jake have. Those two worked for months, only patrolling together. All so you can get in the Cullen’s graces and be there should Irkalla decide to visit them.” Quil unnecessarily pointed out. I knew the fucking plan. It was my plan.
“Yeah. But there were three leeches.’ I pointed out.
“So? Looked like more than three wolves that went after them. Besides you didn’t know that when you took off.”
“I stayed hidden.” I argued.
“You rode off half covered in skin tight armor on an armor covered horse. You think that is hidden?” Chris asked.
“Yes?” I tried.
“Bella you will have plenty of vampires to kill. More than you may be able to handle tomorrow night. I still think we should at least take Jake.” Quil mumbled.
“If something happens to Jake who runs the Pack?” I asked.
“Sam.” Quil responded, pissing me off.
“Besides if something happens to you the Pack won’t have a chance against what is coming.”
“I have to put Thunder in her stall and feed her. We aren’t discussing this. If the two of you don’t want to go tomorrow…”
“Now Bella…”Chris started.
“Then don’t go. Jake stays here. We don’t know what we are walking into. I… we can’t lose wolves to some damn newborns. We have bigger targets.”
“That’s your damn pride. You say you love him but you don’t trust him? He is as strong as you are!” Quil yelled.
“How would he keep something like that out of his head?” I countered.
“If we kill them all the Pack can go back to regular patrols and he and Sam can keep patrol together.” Quil said.
“Edward Cullen?” I asked.
“Trust Jake. He knows what is at stake.” Chris said.
“I have you two. You know what you have to do. I just need you to do that. Leave everything else to me.”
I walked out to get Thunder. She was waiting for me.
“You forgot to take your boots off.” I heard Chris follow. I knew he was worried. He had seen his wife destroy vampires. He also saw her killed by 14 of them. I could possibly be facing more tomorrow. But I had her power. I had all their powers. I was ready. These vampires would be new. Inexperienced fighters. Strong yes but what vampire wasn’t?
“Yeah. Kinda got excited.” I mumbled.
“I got you another pair in the living room. Take them home with you.”
“Thanks Chris.”
“I’m your guide Bella. And your friend. I’m telling you that Jake needs to know. Jake should be back any minute. Take him somewhere and talk to him. Tell him what you are doing tomorrow night.”
‘He won’t let me go alone.”
“This ain’t about your damn pride. The human race is coming under attack. Get your head straight girl.”
“He could be hurt. I…”
“This is war Bella. My wife gave her life fighting these fucking monsters. I’m not gonna lose you too. He isn’t either. Yes. He could be hurt. So could you. Killed even. But that’s life. We ain’t guaranteed victory. The bracelet has gotten stronger and the witches who weld it have gotten stronger. But so has Irkalla. The more vampires in the world the stronger she is. And she is making a shit load of leeches, girl. The spirits gave you a mate. A mate as strong as you are. That’s cause the two of you are supposed to fight together.”
“Chris…”
“I ain’t askin. You tell him or Quil and I will.”
Chris touched Thunder and walked towards the stall. She walked beside him.
He was right. I was prepared to fight. To die if necessary. I had spent months mentally preparing myself for this.
I had not prepared myself to watch Jacob fight and possibly die.
The idea scared the hell out of me.
I walked inside and pulled off my sneakers. May as well start breaking in my boots. Quil walked in and sat down across from me. I looked up and he was grinning.
“Shut up old man.”
“Why are you upset young bitch? Because you just got told what’s up?”
‘Shut up Quil.”
“Jake and his Pack are walking out of the woods. Jacob does not look happy. Somebody may not be having happy time today. Why don’t you go have a discussion with your man and take the ass chewing you got coming to you while I get the rest of those warriors to help me out with the house.”
I stood up and walked slowly outside.
Jake walked up wearing a pair of shorts. He was sweating. His muscles were bulging. He looked like he was about to phase any second. I was about to say something when he grabbed my hips and tossed me over his shoulder without a word. We began moving towards his house.
Okay then.
He finally spoke when he sat me down in his bedroom.
“I’m kind of confused Bells. Do you want the Pack to know about you yet or not? Because it seems like you aren’t worried about keeping your secret from my Pack considering you and Silver…”
“Thunder.”
“Really? Because you were acting like the Lone Ranger out there.” Yeah Jake was not happy.
“I guess that makes you Tonto huh?” I tried. Humor. Jake could never stay mad at me when I made pathetic attempts at being funn…
“You think this is a fucking joke? If you want to run with us fine. But trying to beat me to a kill? What the Hell Bells?”
Humor didn’t work. Challenge him?
“Don’t be angry because a girl and her pony beat you to the vampire.”
“You didn’t beat me to the vampire. You jumped him as I was chasing him. How did you kill him that fast? How did your horse move that fast? How fast can you move? How strong are you Bella? What exactly can you do? This is all shit I need to fucking know and I want to know now. Are we a team or not?”
Shit. Quil was right. Happy time may not be soon.
“Fine. Sit down.”
Jake POV
“Okay. I’m listening.”
“You know the story behind my bracelet?”
“Yes.” At least what Dad and Sam had told me.
“You’ve seen my armor yesterday?”
Hell yes. Damn it was hot. The way it wrapped around certain parts of her body.
“I can control it to some extent. Decide what I want it to cover. But the greater the threat the more it covers me. If you were to try to hit me now it would cover me without me doing anything before I had a chance to move.
The armor makes me strong. Fast. Almost as fast as a vampire. Also strong. I don’t know if I am as strong as a vampire. But I don’t have to be. The large glove that forms on my right hand? It can form weapons. A grappling hook of sorts. A sword. A knife. I can throw the knife when I need to and form another one. Both the sword and the knives can cut vampires. I can draw energy from the earth and send bolts of kinetic energy, sometimes electricity in very high voltages. Perhaps enough to hurt a vampire. The bracelet gives me the knowledge of those who welded it before me…
“The ones who came before you and were killed fighting vampires?” I asked. Despite the list of powers she was placing in front of me I knew she wasn’t indestructible.
“Yes. Some of them did. Some of them took the bracelet off and died naturally.”
“Okay. So you have some…”
“I’m not done.”
“I can talk to the dead. I can read minds when I want to thought it takes a lot of concentration. I heal rapidly. Probably as rapidly as you do. I can cover Thunder with armor and make her faster, so long as I am on her. Together the two of us are probably as fast as you or your wolves. My senses are somewhat heightened but not to the level yours are. At least I don’t think so.”
“Okay…”
“I’m not done.” She whispered.
“I am able to perform some magic. Not much yet but I am getting stronger. I can control the weather to an extent. Chris taught me how to do this. I can do something Quil taught me called astral projection. I can leave my body for some extent and see and listen to others and not be seen. And…”
“And?”
“Last night I had a talk in my bedroom with Tahi Aka. We made a trade. I can see in the mind of your pack. I can communicate when I need to with you and the Pack. I saw what was going on today.”
“I didn’t hear your thoughts.” I told her.
“I didn’t want you to. No one can get in my head unless I allow them too.”
Wait.
“A trade? For what? Wait… you talked to the Tahi Aka? What did he want? How…”
“I am the last witch. The bracelet dies with me. So long as I have it on I don’t age, the same as you don’t age so long as you continue phasing. I can choose to take it off one day and live out my natural life just as you can choose to stop phasing.”
“Okay.”
“I agreed to not take it off. If I am killed, I die. If I live then the two of us must continue to live, to protect the tribe, to have…”
“To have what?”
“To have children. To keep our line in the tribe, to continue to provide protectors for the tribe should a threat arise. The children of a great Quileute warrior and a witch.”
“It wasn’t a hard choice. I basically accepted the responsibility for the safety of his tribe now and in the future.”
“We won’t age. We will attract attention.” I told her.
“I mentioned that. He told me to figure it out.” She laughed.
“So you agreed to immortality for us.” I asked, wanting to make sure I understood correctly.
“I agreed to immortality for me. Unless of course I am killed. I told him I would not make that decision for you. He said you would do what I did.”
“He was right.”
She nodded her head.
“Anything else?” I laughed.
“No… yes…”
‘Which is it Bells?’
“I… the red head is not working with Irkalla. Irkalla is moving west. You know I am hoping to catch her by surprise in the Cullen’s house and end this at one moment. But Victoria… I believe she is building an army with a somewhat smaller scale purpose than taking over the world. Her goal is to kill me. She will bring these vampires here to try to kill me.”
“Okay. The Pack can take her.”
“I couldn’t fight with you. The Cullen’s… if they find out about my powers they will never let me near their home. Not with Irkalla on the way.”
“So you sit out.” Thank God.
“No. So I end it before she can get here.”
Damn it.
“You mean…”
“Quil, Chris and I are going to Seattle tomorrow night to take out her and her army.” She whispered.
“The fuck you are! You think you are taking a damn vampire army yourself?”
“Chris and Quil…”
“Are an old man and an old cowboy.” I finished for her.
“Do not talk about them that way! They have more power than you can imagine!” She stood up and the lights began to blink.
She noticed the lights and calmed down. The light bulb in my room burst. Probably shouldn’t piss her off if I want to keep the lights on.
“Sorry. But I am coming with you.” I half expected her to argue.
Instead she nodded.
“Okay. It will give us a chance to see what the other is capable of. I don’t know how many there will be.”
I laughed a little.
“It sounds like you can’t be beat.” I told her.
“I can be beat Jake. I’m the last witch. I wasn’t the first.” She whispered.
I nodded. I knew this.
‘How?” I needed to know.
“Injured more than the armor can heal. Beaten to death, tore apart if enough vampires got a hold of me or the vampire was strong enough…”
“Like Irkalla is?”
“Maybe.” She nodded.
This was suddenly becoming real to me. Up to this point all I had thought about was the tricks she had pulled. Having her with me. Touching her. Loving her. Even though Sam and Dad told me what was coming I had placed it in the back of my mind. It was abstract. But what she just said brought it home.
She could die.
“What time do we leave tomorrow?” I asked.
“The morning. We will get there early. We will find her…”
“You want me to walk a city the size of Seattle and look for a scent to follow?”
“No. I will find her. I have a plan. Once I find her we call Quil and Chris. They know what they have to do. They will be ready.
I nodded.
“No more going after vampires without me? We work as a team?” If I couldn’t protect her from danger I could at least die with her.
“No more Jake. Me and you.”
“And the geriatric version of cowboys and Indians, right?”
She at least laughed. Laughter meant no blinking and exploding light bulbs.
“Yeah. And them. Soon the Pack will join us. Those that want to. I won’t force anyone to fight and neither will you.”
“Okay. Now take off your clothes.”
“What?” I guess she was surprised.
“You came in yesterday like a damn hurricane. You were demanding, dominate. I found it sexy as hell. But I’m an alpha too. And you aren’t taking me by surprise today. Take off your clothes Bella.”
She slowly pulled her shirt over her head. She had on a black lace see through bra on. She unsnapped her bra and I reached out and grabbed her breasts. She leaned into my grip and moaned.
“So you are strong huh?”
“Yeah Jake. I’m stronger thank I look.”
“Good. I was afraid I would have to be careful with you.” I unzipped her jeans and dropped them to her boots. She slid out of her boots and jeans. She wasn’t wearing panties.
“No underwear?”
“I didn’t see the point considering I planned on making love to you all day.” She said quietly.
“On your knees.”
Without a word she slid down and unbuttoned my shorts pulling them down. I sprang free and she grabbed my cock and buried it in her mouth.
Oh shit.
She began sucking my cock drawing it in so fast he head was nearly a blur. I grabbed her hair to slow her head down. She grabbed my balls and squeezed. I nearly lost it.
I held on though. She began running her tongue up and down my shaft while looking at me.
She spit on my cock and started working it with her hand. Now she was licking my balls. I nearly lost my balance but I wouldn’t lay down. Yesterday she was in control. Today I wouldn’t give in.
She sounds she was making. The sound of my cock sliding in and out of her mouth. I felt her throat nearly spasm as she gagged. I moved to pull out and she grabbed my ass and continue to try to consume me. She continued this, trying to bring me to my knees. I wouldn’t though.
She reached down with her hand and began fingering herself.
I lost it. She must have felt it because she pulled her mouth off of m cock and tilted her head up.
“What are you…”
“Cum on my face Jake. Then you are going to come over my body. I want to go to that bonfire covered in your scent. They will all know I belong to you.” She whispered huskily.
I blew up. I watched my cum cover her face, some falling in her hair. Some went in her open mouth. I made a mess.
I finished and moved to get a towel. She held on and buried her mouth back over my spent cock. Soon I was hard again.
She grabbed her shirt off the floor and wiped her face. I picked her up and flipped her face first in the bed. She raised her ass and I entered her from behind. She screamed.
“Don’t you fucking stop Jake. Cum on my back then turn me over and cum on my tits. Don’t stop. The bonfire is in 7 hours. I’m yours Jake. Use me up.”
Damn straight I would. She was mine. I would possess her in every way. She was a powerful witch but she was still my Bella. Soon everyone would know. Especially Edward fucking Cullen. It would be the last thing he learned before I ended his undead existence. He nearly killed her. Bella told me yesterday that after she was done with him she didn’t care what I did with him. I knew exactly what I would be doing with him. The thought I sent his way of my jaws closing over his head was not a threat. It was a promise.
Bella POV
Jake and I walked onto the beach and I swear every pack member began sniffing the air. Maybe I should have taken a shower.
Quil noticed the sniffing coinciding with my arrival I suppose and shook his head, trying to hold in a laugh. I felt myself blush. I suppose it was good to know I still could. Looking around I saw the elders were all here. Charlie was here. He was sitting next to Chris. Jake and I walked over.
“Hey kid!” They said at the same time. Charlie then glared at Chris. Chris looked at the ocean.
“Hi guys. Glad to see you two getting along.”
“Yep. Chris was telling me about the fun you two had, once you started feeling better. All the horse training and trail rides and cattle drives. Watching television, going to rodeos, giving you a horse. Sounded like a lot of bonding moments. He was just about to explain to me why I couldn’t come out to see you there.”
“Actually Charlie that’s one of those things we really can’t talk about around others.” Chris whispered, looking at the gathered Pack who were looking at Jacob and I holding each other.
“Yeah. That’s convenient.” Charlie mumbled. Chris looked at the ocean again.
“Bella where is the cowboy hat? You don’t want to upset Chris by not dressing just like him, do you?” Charlie asked.
Okay then.
“I’ve never seen Chris in skin tight leather. I could put that outfit back on if you like Dad?” I offered.
Oh. His face just got very red. Probably shouldn’t wear that around Dad any more.
“I wouldn’t mind Bella.” Jake said at exactly the wrong time.
“So… want something to eat Jacob?” I said giving him my best fake smile that conveyed he would be paying for that later.
“Always ready for food Bella.”
“I was actually about to go grab something myself. Why don’t you come with me Jake and Bella can catch up with her Daddy.” Chris suggested.
Jake didn’t look happy to let me go but he followed. Chris gave me a look. I nodded. I told him already. Let it go.
He winked and walked off with Jacob, no doubt to make sure I told him about our Seattle trip tomorrow night.
I sat next to Charlie.
“How ya doin kid?”
“Nobody will ever take your place. Relax.”
I guess he wasn’t expecting the straight forward approach.
“He did a lot for me. I would be dead if it wasn’t for him.” I continued. I didn’t want there to be tension. We had enough difficulties coming our way.
“I know. I just missed you. I missed most of your life and then when you come to live with me your life is basically ruined and I suppose…”
“What?”
“I suppose maybe I just feel like a failure as a father. I have protected you from nothing in your life. You have taken it all on the chin.”
I leaned over and hugged him.
“Dad. Everything was meant to happen. We can’t fight fate. I’ve learned that. It’s okay. I’m happy.”
“You are about to go to…”
“Dad!” I whispered sharply. He looked around and nodded his head.
“I’m sorry. I just wish I could do it for you.” He said quietly.
“Do what?”
Shit. Leah Clearwater walked up.
“It’s personal Leah.” I told her not knowing what else to say. I had never actually spoken to her but Jake had told me quite a bit. Leah Clearwater was not a happy camper as a general rule.
“Yeah, personal huh? You got a lot of secrets it seems, Swan.”
“Leah…” Charlie started.
“What Charlie? It doesn’t bother you that your little girl goes away for 6 months with an elder and comes back with a new style and a new daddy?”
“Leah…” Charlie started again. It didn’t matter. Leah wanted to talk and she woldn’t shut up until she said what she wanted to say.
“How long till you destroy Jake, Swan? We can smell him all over you. Literally. You fuck him all afternoon…”
“Leah!”
“Shut up Jake! You fuck him all afternoon and then you go home to…”
“Leah you really don’t want to say that.” Paul mentioned running up.
“Edward Cullen.” Leah finished.
“Leah, I am not with Edward Cullen.” I told her.
“Then why did I watch you let him into your house last night and he came out two hours later? You two catching up on old times or reliving them?”
That brought silence to the gathering.
Damn I wish I had a dip right now. A beer would be really good to.
