Eternal Conflict. (Eclipse by Edward Cullen)
Training Chapter 22
"Tonight you're going to take me with you -. Bella said softly trying to pretend calm.
Jasper Jacob had pressed to be found the same night at the spot where we used to play baseball.
had not returned to that place since that fateful afternoon in which we come inevitably to the family of James, that's already more than a year.
many events, how many dangers and difficulties we faced since then. But we also had joys, dreams and experiences that made up for everything bad, bitter.
That dark night, we would return there, the destination so required, and imposed it and would respond bravely to the call. The countdown had begun.
But the idea of \u200b\u200bbeing so near or werewolf Jacob Black was inherently risky, I do not want her to be found in the middle if something went wrong that night.
I reminded her that she was tired but when he got an idea in his head was impossible for him to understand the most obvious reasons.
But the truth was that Bella was also uneasy with the decision to partner with the Quileute.
was sure I had all of us and now that his friends were joining our struggle, his fear increased. Why had she persisted in attending that night, even when it was exhausted.
For her night had also been endless and certainly was depleted to the fainting, but refused to stay home, warm, tucked in bed, resting. Was determined to attend the event agreed with the werewolves at that hour of the morning and did not hesitate in saying it would appeal to Jacob Black to go.
was a cheap shot, that dog would run a few minutes she call him and unconsciously and without think about your safety, it ... it would take. Could support
maddening closeness of Jacob Black?
had to do it.
Could I also surrender to the joy expressed by my father only a few hours ago?
would have to do.
was the only way, it should do if you wanted it to work, if he wanted saliésemos airy, had to believe and above all, had to endure.
Maybe all out one more test, Bella would have us there, facing each other, comparisons.
Jacob Black had sworn to snatch a leg if she kissed him without his consent ...
But now required would be together, for one reason or another, they were, to share with us meant that it would also inevitably she and I might not always be close to Bella, I would have to go away sooner or later would do so.
And what would happen when that happen? Jacob Black
return to the attack, continue your game, bringing it closer, slowly seducing her, earning their trust again, his love cloudy since the incident in La Push, and Bella would forgive him, I knew they would.
Then he would speak of love I feel for her and presumably there would be nothing I could do about it.
would be bound hand and foot.
"See you up -. Then said Bella.
Without realizing it we were away from home.
ran towards the entrance and could not say a word, saw it as input.
I stood there, still troubled by my dark fantasies.
was to be able to put aside everything that could not see the profitability of the whole situation, Jacob Black was a sentence that was to endure, it was imperative to do so.
should not be I who prevented the successful apprehension left my hand, my jealousy would not be the cause of our "death" was not yet ready to see what was beyond this life for us, not now, we had some way to go Bella and I, years, decades and centuries of happiness were intended for us, and sooner rather than later, QUAD was one of us when you were like me, these troubling days would be only the vague memory of the human mind.
jumped out his window and waited while she went up with her father, who then wait had ended up falling asleep. He climbed the stairs slowly, helped by Bella.
waited sitting in his old rocking chair while she changed.
was sure that my attempts to convince him but would be useless I recognize nothing for her to feel more secure and peaceful. It was my task
instill value.
After all, maybe my family had sufficient reasons to be confident. Carlisle would never do we explain, he was the only one who could appreciate the situation with the "cold blood" by a if it were, and if he was confident and sure, I also had to be.
Then Bella came back.
would rather you use your adorable pajamas, but instead wore jeans and a flannel shirt. He hung up the jersey donated by my sister that morning and came up to me to hold my hand as I said,
"Come here.
smiled at his attempt to pull my body and let me drive like the doll that was in his arms while pushing me on the bed.
I slid smoothly over her and then Bella lay beside me, snuggled against my side.
felt the mad beating of his heart. Bella was afraid for us all, although he was sure he was not afraid for her.
've done for my family, his father, his friends, he also feared for me but I was sure so did he.
Le wrapped lightly with the bedspread, avoiding contact with my cold body and then held her in my arms trying to reassure her.
"Relax, please. I asked.
to explain, should try to understand, to see how easy it would be now that the Quileute were willing to join us and share our destiny like that.
"This is going to be okay, Bella, I feel it. I said trying to convince myself as well.
Carlisle had every reason to be so confident, all Bella had less reason to be so restless and I did not want to sleep with that load on your brain, also wanted to protect her from bad dreams and she was about to fall given by sleep.
"Listen, Bella, this is going to be easy. I said trying to get my words sounded smooth and be recorded in your subconscious.
was not hard to imagine the surprise on the neophytes to see us willing and ready to fight. The surprise would be much higher when they saw the group of wolves, even as it was the first time for them to see one, was expected to feel awe and fear before our natural enemies. Surely
had warned us, but nobody would against giant dogs.
"I've seen how they act in groups, according to Jasper recalls. During our trip to Jacksonville, he had seen them in action. "The technique hunting of wolves run cleanly. Once they are divided and confused, and will not be match for the rest of us. Some even could be left out. It would not require us to participate all -.
Or at least I wanted to believe.
The idea of \u200b\u200bfighting a neophyte frightened and did not bother me, I could use some action, it would be the first time I actually measured against someone, but I always have the advantage, whatever, I know your moves before hand and that gave me an advantage. But my fear was not for me, my fear was away from her, leaving even a second with the village surrounded by vampires, you could always sneak one into town.
had decided to ignore the idea of \u200b\u200bJasper. I knew he only wanted the best for everything and had no ulterior motives in his words. I would never expose
Bella and then just something I was sure she could not stay alone, she would always be with me ... at all times.
"Sure, it will be a breeze -. But sadly muttered sarcastically.
I asked him not to worry over the matter, it would not help his mind to grieve unnecessarily. Bella needed to recover from the long day had been too much excitement.
Even the idea of \u200b\u200bgoing and leaving her alone in the middle of the night seemed like a good decision, but could not carry it, not as it was exhausted. Hum
waiting for her the lullaby melody that lead you to restful sleep.
was sure that once the tune take its course Bella does not take a drop at a deep sleep.
To my relief it did not happen. Your heart rate and tension of your body is not decreased in absolute and after several minutes, when it became clear that she does not sleep chooses the most sensible and convenient for us ... The most sensible and convenient for me.
- Are you sure prefer not to sleep over? -. I asked. His expressive eyes
me much confirmed what I expected. I sighed relieved than angry or resigned, I took in my arms to jump out the window and dive into the darkness of the night was not so for me anyway. Outside
nocturnal creatures of the forest lived the quiet life without worrying too much when going jogging gently around them. For them it was only a shadow, a slight breeze.
Running for me was always reassuring, relaxing and it was even more if the body was burning Bella's back with his arms and legs hugging my body, that the wind caress my face and play with my hair was only one ingredient of a recipe for a happy moment .... What more could you ask an old vampire like me to life?
course ... All I could wish was that the moment will last forever.
But life does not grant wishes such to beings like me and unfortunately I could soon feel the voices of my family as we approached the place agreed.
waiting for me to start and to feel that both we approached, no one was surprised. On the contrary, felt that nothing was as if Bella was not present.
took her hand and walked calmly towards them.
On another occasion, in other circumcision would have been a nice ride, they, we, all together as a true, no doubt strange to human eyes, but a real family in the end.
humor Everyone was truly amazing, especially Emmett, his competitive spirit finally see some "action."
I think the only person who does not enjoy all this would be Bella walked silently by my side, hidden no doubt in their concerns.
- Do you know what I think? -. He then asked suddenly.
Knowing what she thought was undoubtedly the most longed for me at some point that long ago.
Now on the contrary it was something that had passed. Bella would always be a mystery to me, or at least would be that he could not read his eyes.
I laughed then and I said no.
- What do you think? -
She believed that all events were linked to each other, that all were related incidents have occurred lately, but did not understand what he meant.
said three things had gone bad since my return to Forks.
neophytes in Seattle, the visitor who had broken into her bedroom and she regarded as the first of all: The return of Victoria.
Victoria Victoria ... Again. Had become a time not long ago. She wanted to avenge the death of James and never would not stop trying.
I had thought about it when the killings began in Seattle, just a bit after his last visit, but could be layers of weaving all of this? What Bella could see that I overlooked?
- What makes you think that? -. I asked.
"Because I agree with Jasper, the Volturi love their rules and, in addition, however, have done a fine job. Remember when Victoria traced to last year? -.
And how could I forget something.
months were the most idiotically sad and wasted my entire existence. Tracking is not really giving me very well and had been deceived as a child.
Alice had been in charge of putting it on top of all my adventures while we were separated and it was she who told him that I had traveled to Seattle.
- Do you went there? -.
"Yes. Um ... -.
Could have waited all this time in Seattle Victoria?
Bella thought it was. I thought maybe it was in place at that time when he came to Victoria the idea of \u200b\u200bforming an army of new vampires and thus carrying out his revenge.
"But she does not really know how to do it correctly, so newbies are out of control.
That could not be possible.
Only someone who knew us really well know how to move without seeing him and that Alice could not be another ring.
He knew very well how it worked the presence of my sister had scanned his mind completely and there was no one else to know as well so as to avoid him.
I kept thinking that the Volturi were solely responsible for all that.
-Aro is best corrected .- I know Bella. - But Did not know her well enough Tanya, Irina and the rest of your friends in Denali? -. I recalled the months he lived with them. "And if Victoria had with a relation in terms cordial enough to do her favors, why not going to count how much
know? -.
She was right, if Laurent had returned to Forks, he had done at the request of Victoria, according to his words. And it might be possible to ask Laurent Victoria find out details about my family, the Denali clan knew us very well.
But we had no proof. The only tangible evidence we have seen was the strange smell in the room of Bella, a foreign flavor to all of us, but it was the smell of victory.
- What has not been able to make new friends? Think about it, if it is Victoria who is behind the case of Seattle, is doing a lot of new friends, you are creating.
Victoria "... The mastermind behind this trap?.
-Um ... You may -.
I told him about my views on the whole issue and how for my sole responsibility was the Volturi. But I could not pass by something his theory primarily because it had many strong points. The nature of Victoria, their ability to adapt and to survive, especially when all it was a natural talent for it.
What would happen if Bella was right?, Was really easy for me to see it.
She would not risk, perhaps not even participate in the fight, staying in the rear, possibly waiting hidden.
therefore not be exposed in front of the Volturi if they submit and will surely think of to destroy all the neophytes who survived the battle so they could not testify against her.
Although it was very likely that Victoria had a friend, a novice more prepared and more than the others, one that is quite conscious and manageable by ordering her to keep alive the father of Bella ... sorry
share with her those last words, I had been led by my thoughts.
Bella's hypothesis had removed the slight calm experienced at that time and again to regain alertness. I could not afford to drop the guard even when the others did, it should not, must remain attentive to the shadows moving not far from us ... threatening.
overlooked was very disturbing signals, signals that only she could see now that burden was mine alone to bear, should not unduly distress Bella.
I let down my thoughts even for a moment and turned to her trying to smile.
"No doubt it is perfectly possible, but we must be prepared for any contingency to be sure. Today you are the most insightful. It's impressive.
I cursed myself again for being an idiot, would not dream of victories won before the battle.
"Maybe a simple reflex reaction to this place. She said. Bella
inquire felt, perhaps as much as I at that time. The memory of last year was very present in his memory, Victoria felt very close to her as if she were looking at that moment.
scanned the area quickly, Victoria never be able to approach both Bella. I would not allow it.
-never touch you. I assured him that never comes forward the time when his life was a risk.
With the help of Carlisle we had always away from our inhuman side, this time we would need the more than ever.
For a first time would need to move, to act, to be nothing more than ourselves.
We would behave as a true vampires, creatures capable of starting a head, a member of a hit and I would not hesitate to do it for her. Would peacefully lived decades ago, all they could get it for her, for my Bella.
If Bella was right, if it was Victoria who was watching us, not allow him to be so close to my beloved. But it was just that my decision had nothing to do with it was it could be any other, who would have to go out on my body to get to Bella, but in that I was the ... Life.
my body felt colder than ever, never been so determined to give my life for someone just as you would for Bella, me, my life was not important and was not afraid to face an uncertain fate, only feared one thing and that was losing her forever.
But if Victoria was to blame would not give him another chance to cheat ...
"This time I'll finish with her personally. I assured him as he kept looking in the forest.
I felt then closing his fingers against mine, she was there beside me. I take care of the rest when his time came, when he got the chance.
- What's wrong with Alice? -. Bella asked when we are one step closer to my family.
had noticed the mood of my sister, no doubt his body language was very eloquent and it was impossible not to see that he was upset and annoyed, all this due to their inability to see the future.
was aware of it when he invited Jacob and the rest of the pack. Now that their future and ours was no longer bound inevitably Alice could see us. He thought he could handle it but between saying and doing was a big difference. I chuckled
trying to keep my sister would know but it was useless.
"You can not see anything now that the werewolves are on their way. This "blindness" upsets. I said answering the question of Bella.
"-Ja. Ja. Ja ... - ". River Alice sarcastically in his mind. "" And do not understand why this seems funny, Edward.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's my fault, I invited. But I do it just for Bella, Did you hear?
addition, you laugh now but we'll see if you laugh when Jacob Black this tail moving you around Bella, then that would be me "."
I knew it was serious ... about laughing.
was hoped that Jacob reached the tail moving you Bella, we already had assumed, but it was something I had decided to support.
Then my sister took out his little tongue and I laughed again. We then
along with the rest of my family and was first to greet Emmet at first to me and then Bella.
- Are you going to stop participating in practices? -. Then told her.
That was all I needed tonight, so I asked my brother not to give my girlfriend crazy ideas.
My father greeted us in turn. He like the rest of my family was waiting for the arrival of the herd.
- When our guests arrive? -. I asked Carlisle.
was not hard to calculate, and the stench could be felt in the air, moving quickly through the forest but anyway I concentrated a moment.
was truly incredible diving in that presence colectita.
Some of them were not very happy with the idea proposed by Jacob, but they felt a duty to his people was greater than their prejudices against us, but that did not mean to trust us at all ...
"They'll be here in minute and a half, but I have to officiate a translator, because they do not trust us enough to use his human form. I answered my father.
But yet, something was not right, something did not fit. Carlisle
immediately understood it was obvious that it was hard for them too close us and he was glad they made that sacrifice.
- Do they come as wolves? -. Bella asked, surprised.
I looked down at her and saw the concern in his face. I shook my head
confirming his words and she gulped loudly. Surely
seemed threatening to them posing as wolves, thus being ready for the attack. But there was nothing we could do except hope that they would not be the first to attack otherwise could not avoid a confrontation. I wanted to reassure
Bella but did not have time, wolves had arrived. I turned
looking for Carlisle and the rest of my family.
-Prepare, will go on jumping.
- What do you mean? -. Alice asked, bewildered, completely blind to what was about to happen.
"Silence -. I asked.
They arrived but were nervous, we should not give reason to doubt our intentions.
I looked again to my sister who stood staring at me, I moved my eyes into the darkness hoping that she did and then we saw them.
There, before us, in the bush slowly and cautiously stopped the wolf pack under-developed.
Jasper, Emmett and I were the defensive line of my family. My place was in front, with them. That does not mean that others were unable to defend themselves, quite the contrary.
But tonight was different, I was divided. I wanted to be with them but my place was with Bella. That was my job now, my only and great responsibility.
And after a few seconds I told myself to stay with her was definitely the right decision.
"Damn -. Emmett uttered. - Have you ever seen something like that? -.
We all feel surprised, then realized because the collective consciousness herd ... I was so busy. The herd had grown six individuals were no longer as we thought, or remembered, now before us were ten large and imposing wolves.
Enough, he dared to face if they wanted.
But that does not happen, the Quileute would honor the treaty agreed by their ancestors.
- What? -. Bella whispered beside me.
were still far away and hidden so that she still sees him and did not understand our reactions.
I leaned a bit to tell what was happening but surely in a few seconds she could also appreciate their eyes. Ten wolves
soon would leave the forest and go into the clearing.
the center was the one who was called Sam and he was the leader.
He had ordered them to stop and the rest obeyed like any extension of his own body and govern them completely. It was truly fascinating.
None of us moved or said a word, Carlisle was the patriarch of our family, it was their right, duty and responsibility to welcome our guests.
walked slowly to the front of the group, leaving only a little behind Jasper and Emmett trying to inspire the greatest confidence possible.
"Welcome -. He said to the wolves that remained at about twenty meters from us.
however, was not difficult for them to hear the words of my father.
was not his intention to leave the way in which we found at that time, they like us could not put aside their nature. For them it was also difficult to be there that night.
All minds seem to belong to one and every one of them was open to other members of the herd. Surely
was a really uncomfortable situation but both fascinating and at that moment one thought prevailed in all of them and that was the total disregard of my kind.
"Thank you. Transmitting said aloud the words of Sam and then to transfer the alpha male appreciation continued.
the flock's position was very simple, not seeking to strengthen ties of friendship, that night they would merely observe and pay attention to what dijieramos, but only that.
was apparently the only thing that allowed self-control.
"It's more than enough -. Carlisle replied.
He told them about the experience of Jasper, which had also Jacob shortly.
Some wolves were shocked to see my brother who was pointed out by my father's time. Jacob Black will also had given details about the newborns and they were able to do a vampire they have faced and survived was also worthy of admiration, but not my brother was more calm, quite the contrary.
Jasper, as I was fully aware that they needed, although the idea was unpleasant to us, we knew that we had no other choice.
The idea to reveal our weaknesses and strengths to the Quileute bothered my brother very much, but we had no way to teach them also how to attack our enemies.
was a young pack and although we knew we had finished with Laurent, they or any of us ever us we faced a neophyte.
I knew what to expect, had attended the memories vividly to Jasper, but seeing it and living it were two very, very different and there was only one way to prevent any member of my family get hurt. We had
ally.
-El is going to teach how to fight, how to defeat them. I'm sure you can apply that knowledge to your own hunting style. Continued my father.
Then Sam wanted to confirm the information provided by Jacob and asked about the nature of the attackers. He wanted to know if they were different from us, which my father confirmed. He spoke
of the neophytes, as they moved, their weaknesses and strengths. He said they were twenty and we expected that they will occupy ten and we can take care of the rest, although their number may decrease.
Wolves could not help but show your enthusiasm, twenty vampires to kill them was to
incredible, they found very exciting ending and prosecute Laurent Victoria, killing ten was a dream come true and would not hesitate to address a couple more For them not a job, it was a hobby.
"We're willing to take care of most of which belong to us
if necessary. Sam said in my mind and I I informed my father.
"We'll see how the thing is given. Carlisle replied.
Some wolves, to the newest it was very unpleasant to have us so close, our odor bothered them much as we do theirs.
also had in them a sense of pride that could not or would not hide, they knew very well they were a great pack and Jacob Black was more than happy to be there that night, he wanted to see how big Bella was, he wanted she saw that not only we could protect him.
"Thanks for the information. We will be watching. Sam replied to finish.
had passed the hardest part, first impressions and regarded him as leader for now we acted in good faith and were virtually harmless to them ... for now.
gave the order to the wolves to rest and all snorted through the nose in protest, but none were layered issue any protest, Sam's voice and obeyed all were silent.
Then it was time to practice. Jasper was so uncomfortable
like wolves but still in a few steps forward, as if addressing to our guests.
"" I still think this is a very, very bad idea. " He said in his mind. "- Is troops of dogs is reliable? - ". He asked me suspicious and uneasy as he moved slowly and a bit away from us.
He turned his head a little searching my eyes and shook my head trying to reassure my brother.
"" Well. " Answered resignedly. "- I guess we have only to trust-out."
Then he stopped, turned around without hesitation, giving back to the werewolves and addressing us said:
-Carlisle is right, they fight like children. The two basic things you must never forget are: -. Indications were apparently really simple:
not let that trap us and not try to attack them head on. "As you go after them on your side and on the move, they will be too confused to give an effective reply .-. Said to conclude the theoretical part.
Then it was the turn of the practical part of training.
was waiting, I was almost euphoric, as if Emmett's enthusiasm had infected me one way or another, anxiously awaited my turn to practice.
was always nice to get carried away a moment, stretch your muscles, so to speak. We had many opportunities to do so, Esme was upset, mainly because Emmett was left to carry too much and always ended up breaking something.
Jasper At that time sought the help of Emmett and to demonstrate that their attack would be very similar to a neophyte.
-try not to break anything. Questioned said.
-By that I mean that he relies on his strength. Jasper tried to expire as he neophytes act directly. "The newcomers are not going to attempt any subtlety. They try to kill the fast lane.
Emmett and Jasper were deployed horizontally from north to south respectively, offering a true entertainment to our guests.
"Okay, Emmett ... Try to catch me. Jasper said and without waiting a single second the aforementioned pounced.
It only took two big steps to get in front of him, but could not reach him, was fast but not as much as Jasper. Emmett
lunged over and over again like a big raging animal. Snorted and grumbled when it achieved its goal, but certainly not stopped smiling.
His joy echoed in my mind. Was it wrong to feel so happy?
None of us could help it.
could see every movement, every intention of my brothers in their minds, seconds before the carry out, however felt the same joy to watch each perform intricate maneuvers.
all ended when he defeated Jasper Emmett's defense to catch him in the back and pretend to bite the throat. When he saw his defeat was cursed and grumbled, only his pride was out injured anyway. "Again
-. Required.
not any difference to the wolves were recording every detail of practice. The defeat was never well digested by Emmett would have been the same if only we were to meet us.
But my brother did not want to monopolize all the fun, I also wanted to participate, although the idea did not seem so funny to Bella and me.
-Wait a minute -. Jasper said as soon as I reclaim my turn. He
available once you finish with the apprehension felt by Alice Bella. Jasper
knew she had great concern for my little sister, Esme. That night Jasper was about to erase their fears by showing them as they too were capable of doing.
"I know that you care about her, I show you why it is not necessary.
Jasper Alice came along and started the show.
"" I was their time to the little bloodsuckers "." He thought a wolf across the field.
some laughter echoed in unison.
, "Shut up," replied Sam mental voice that immediately called to order.
They had no idea what my sister was able to do. Jasper
crouched in front of Alice, tormented her from below, ready to jump on it at any time.
His technique was not only surprised, too intimidated or in the case of my sister ... distracting. Alice
contained laughter and closed his eyes to avoid being distracted by it and was guided only by their senses.
could not see but could smell him, feel your body before you even touch this.
His reflexes responded even faster than did Jasper, Bella should not ever fear for Alice.
Again and again he dodged, Jasper jumped, fell to the ground, returned to the fray with stronger efforts, demanding more speed but his attempt was futile Alice was more perceptive, more intuitive and above all, faster than him.
A single movement was enough to beat Jasper.
The jaws of the wolves fell without being able to believe his eyes, Alice had climbed back to Jasper and then he said lovingly: "I
Gotcha -. And then kissing her throat. The movement took
completely unprepared to Jasper who had no choice but to accept defeat but not before adding that my sister was "a little monster."
That night there was only a demonstration of how to annihilate neophytes, was also a way to show what we want Quileute able to do, have us some respect do not come not bad after all.
my sister's performance had been surprised.
"" Never measure the size-opponent. " Sam said the herd. "" Especially if they are vampires, smaller or appear to be unarmed. Remember that! "-.
chuckled, was a good lesson we should never forget.
-Les will be very useful to learn a little respect -. Murmured with Bella.
But leaving that aside, in addition to the above, perhaps this display of skills also serve to Bella understood at once that in us, which I could trust and it was time that she saw what layers was also done.
"My turn. I added aloud.
Bella's body instantly tensed when they heard my words she should not fear for me, Jasper never really try to hurt me and especially because I did not give him the opportunity.
I squeezed her hand a bit before I left.
"" Go quiet brother, I will take care of our Bella. " Alice spoke my mind and walked away.
So, one at a march before the expectant eyes of our guests, every movement, every jump, every stroke, each technique was observed, analyzed and recorded in the retina of wolves, although he was aware that Bella could not capture more than fifty percent of our ability hoped that what he saw enough to feel calm about our safety and yours.
I was not aware of the time until I felt Bella's body leaning against mine,
had exceeded the limit of his strength and could no longer hide his exhaustion.
"We're about to finish -. I assured him.
The night was coming to an end. Gradually the darkness faded and stop showing your shelter.
But it was a successful day, including Jasper everyone was pleased, including me. However
it was time to end, soon come the dawn and Bella had to rest.
My brother first turned toward the direction where the herd was then said: "Tomorrow
continue with the investigation. Please invite them to come back and watch.
"Yes. Sam's response was immediate. - We will be here. I shared with my family.
"" But before we go there is something that we wanted to do-". Said Sam.
The pack felt it was imperative that they become familiar with our scents. He had been impossible
individualized to be as close to each other as we practiced. Differentiate ourselves by our glow would help them when the battle, we are opposed to "bad."
"Resignation, resignation." I said to myself and let out a deep breath I walked away from Bella to go to my family.
To perform such recognition would have come dangerously close to us.
-Les would be easier if we stay quiet. After I finished that convey the words of Sam.
-not mention -. Said my father. "What you may need. And he meant literally.
Carlisle would do anything to count on your help, even let him sniff.
The idea was so unpleasant for them as for us, some snarling when the stretch, others complained but no one dared to challenge the order of the alpha male.
began to move towards us, the heart of Bella had jumped to hear my words but could not run to her, not now that the wolves were coming. We should avoid sudden movements that might frighten or disturb them. They also moved cautiously, Sam leading the group, approaching slowly without losing sight, watching every slight movement.
the happiest of all was Jacob Black, had remained silent throughout the day, was the only wolf there was no growl with the idea of \u200b\u200bSam, he hoped to approach us, but we were not the real reason, Jacob wanted to get closer to Bella.
She saw them, was dawn and they were no longer safe from the shadows. In his face you could see awe and anxiety.
wanted to hold hands, wanted to form a wall with my body that stood between the wolves and her but could not, were very close, moving more and more.
Then Sam came before us, in front of my father and my brothers who were at the head of the family.
Jasper's discomfort was apparent, his body rigid, eyes expectant, everything indicated.
Carlisle, Jasper. Each was sniffed by Sam and when Emmett was the turn of this thought.
"" I never thought that one day a wolf olisquearía me everywhere, "Emmett thought funny. "" Now if I can say I've lived all-".
was amazing how my brother could see everything from a very relaxed even in the most uncomfortable.
One by one we sniffed by Sam. The task took no more than a few minutes and at all times held their impressions of our smell, but could not help thinking about it and could not hide from me the feeling of open repulsion, something more was deemed necessary.
The second wolf was neither more nor less than Jacob Black. That confused me a little, his ancestor was not the leader with whom we had made the treaty? Was he not a direct descendant of the head of the pack? Therefore, he was not entitled to be Leader of the pack, too? Why is content to be second?.
was a revelation for me.
Bella had not told me anything about it, perhaps Jacob she hid it.
I decided to go into the confusing world of shared consciousness and found really surprising things. As Jacob Black had tried to hide While he had not told Bella. We all had secrets, even dogs.
did not feel that was wrong to pry into their heads, they were learning everything that made us weak in front of them that I collect information related to the herd was something I needed to do, should match the scale.
was wrong to think they were a group of stupid teens, no, that was an understatement. Not only had teenage boys but now had real children in their ranks and not only that there was also a female.
was too shy around him, the situation was really uncomfortable. But was not limited only to the difference of sex, natural cycle by which women pass in the month, went beyond the obvious, there was everything a soap opera behind her.
I stopped thinking about them, Bella stood with eyes fixed on Jacob. Had he known? Possibly, her face had only admiration, fascination, rather than fear as I wanted.
suddenly let out a clear and translucent laughter in response to the antics that he spent, he had noticed the attention that Bella did nothing but encourage Jacob who left the row in which stood and walked toward her.
Sam wanted to say something but like all sat stunned.
"- Jacob What are you doing?" - ". Thought surprised the other wolves.
He trotted along with me, without even considering the possibility that I could take him by the neck and throw it far, far away.
, "Nobody move". " Then ordered Sam. Jacob was the second command, Sam could order him, but Jacob could choose to obey or not. "" We have work to do. "This is merely to say.
" "Unfortunately, I already know the scent of them all". "Answered the hint and kept moving towards Bella.
" "Calm Edward he will not do anything and neither do we. Calm. " I encouraged my father who had also understood who he was.
"-Ray". " Emmett exclaimed in turn. Then
feel the wave of calm that we completely bathroom. Jasper tried to break up the haze that threatened to destroy the accursed alliance.
What the hell I had thought when I accepted all this?
"" It's for her Edward, remember. She is. " Alice said again.
- Jacob? -. Bella asked to doubt what their eyes.
Bella was screaming, should back but did not, stayed there with bright eyes and fascination in the face.
"Edward" Easy. " Said Alice. "" You know they're friends, maybe have a fight before but are now friends, remember-".
was not something he needed to remind me, he knew it was his friend.
But now was not his friend, Jacob was not at that time was not human, was a wild animal with claws, fangs and sharp teeth, a wolf, a damn wolf. Bella
then extended his hand forward with the clear intention of stroke. A double stitch stuck in my chest to see on your wrist a bracelet with a figure hanging from her flute. And that figure was not nothing but a wolf.
was completely disappointed. Why deny that to me so when he allowed?
also did not know he wanted to see in reality, would have preferred to see her cry but not shocked, not radiant, not mesmerized, not so everywhere stroking the dog's fur.
Jacob was enjoying the best displays of affection that he felt protected by their pack and my family. He knew I would not do anything stupid, I knew I swallow my anger and my pride broken, then protected by all that took his foul language and went through Bella's face.
- Hey, Jacob, gross! -.
Wolves are prepared to jump on us at the slightest movement.
Jacob Black was a selfish and under the situation to commit their vile acts.
"" Umm ... I guess that does not count as a kiss, right? - "
was a lie I felt love for her.
was dropping Love, love was let go what hurts us, hurts us all for the beloved.
It was not love that child believed her mind for her. I clenched my fists
Jasper while working harder and harder on us all but especially for me.
I did not want your false comfort.
wanted to start one by one the legs of that filthy dog. I wanted to grab his tongue and strangle her.
Bella Why act that way?
Did not in the position we were so complicated?
exposed How could it?
"We had not said more than one occasion that wolves were dangerous, they were unstable?
"" It's a real shame. Here we have to stoop and she does? Play with the dog. It's a real shame. " Rosalie complained. Jasper
also was upset. Not approved Bella acting. I thought it was too much and only ask a little consideration.
The herd was nervous. Sam
The act was very similar to my father, felt that the sacrifice was worth it. He was able to do anything to protect his people and be responsible for calling to order Jacob whenever appropriate but not here, not now.
"- Back everyone! - "I ordered. "" Slowly "."
was upset. I would not let something like that. Much had been at stake.
If any decline occurred in either side would not be possible to defend Forks and La Push then everything would be lost.
Jacob moved away to escape the blow that deal it Bella was laughing openly.
As much I hated the situation, I hated the emotional bond that existed between them, could not do anything about it.
loved Bella, he loved with all my being, my mind, my body devoted to her, with my will and my self-esteem. I was nothing without her and all forgave him, forgave him even having to share their love with a dog.
At that time I felt a lump in the throat, pushed him to the depths of my being, I could not have or control their feelings but if I could control my own and should not allow anyone viera el dolor que sentía, no dejaría que nadie viera mi orgullo pisoteado.
Fingiría, Jacob Black no tendría el gusto de verme humillado.
La indiferencia sería mi mejor aliada, todo esto no era mas que una maldita competencia para él, lobo contra vampiro, una competencia por ver quien se quedaba con la chica, que criatura era mejor, superior. Más fuerte, más veloz, más inteligente. Era… infantil, idiota, yo no estaba para juegos ridículos, la vida de Bella estaba en juego, la de Bella y la de todos nosotros. Y él sólo pensaba en hacer estupideces que lograsen acabar con mi paciencia?
No participaría en eses juego, no debía permitir que me molestase, no debía take by the tail and throw it into the trees.
What would that? Surely I would be incredibly well, but not really win, lose and lose much.
would lose the opportunity to save Bella, my family and I was sure it would lose much more.
"should not, must not, should not." I repeated in my mind using my self and letting the power of work on my Jasper.
Bella "I would be the same way again if I had with your friend? Was certainly not, if he did lose her forever.
commander, Sam, we watch, I watch carefully to As they walked away.
The relaxed attitude of Jacob and told me stand cold that everything was controlled and that any confrontation would take place that morning, and walked away but not before Jacob did not think would happen on the pack.
Carlisle and the rest of my family relaxed at the same time.
"This time if I've done work. Jasper complained.
"I knew he would do nothing. Add Alice to me.
- So?. Do not tell me that you are now immune to the wolves you can see the future again? -. I said sarcastically.
"No, I can not. But if I see how much you love Bella and that is enough.
"Please. Rosalie complained. - Could leave us stupid? I can not wait to get home and give me a bath to get me this foul smell off dog.
"Good idea, I'll go with you. Emmett replied and walked away together well.
"" Thanks, son. " Carlisle thought.
life they ever give me would try so hard to bear. Was it too much to ask that Jacob died of natural causes instead of circling around Bella and Alice had predicted.
If you could read his mind would have thought that he had indeed seen the future and to that moment Jacob moved his tail next to Bella.
"It's better that we leave. Esme said. "I'm sure that these wolves are waiting behind Jacob and we should not worry about them.
-fact. I told them. "You do not get ahead, we'll be fine. Assured.
Esme took her hand and began walking Carlisle. Les
wait. Jasper said, but in real I knew he would wait for my only caution. Do we even doubted my self?
I walked into Bella and ignoring the dog said,
- Are you ready? -.
Jacob told me quietly.
demanded details about the safety of Bella.
If the leave alone? If it would be safe? Where would when they got the neophytes? Who and where he would care?.
replied that we had not figured out all the details. Many things were still to be resolved.
was not Bella go and leave it anywhere.
My answer did not like in the slightest.
"- How you do not have all the details clear? -". Mumble. You're not thinking about leaving her alone? Because if so I warn you I will not, do not leave you alone. If you want you can go and fight with your family, but I did not leave.
addition we will arrange his father to stay in La Push, she can go well, there will be safe "."
"It's more complicated than that.
Many things could happen in battle, could not explain to Bella was there, it would be like waving a red handkerchief in front of a bull.
And leave the reservation was not a good idea, Victoria knew too well the whole area and the trail of Bella would be very easy to follow it. I could not leave so far, and also exposed a where none of us have access.
But he should not worry about anything. I would take care that Bella was safe, that was my duty, not yours. I would not let Bella's life in the dirty feet of Jacob.
- What are you talking about? -. She said.
"Only we are discussing strategies. Answered automatically.
"" I see you hide things never stop.
When you understand that it is stronger than it seems and that his life is at stake, has a right to know "."
mental ignored his words, Bella already knew enough no necesitaba tener más preocupaciones.
“—No puedo creer que le mientas así como si nada—“. Comprendió que no le contaría nada a Bella y se alejó corriendo.
Quien era él para criticarme? Habían muchas cosas que Jacob ocultaba de Bella.
“—Ya veremos, ya veremos—. Agregó amenazante cuando se alejó. —No le mentirás en mi presencia—“.
No se marchaba, por el contrario, volvería de inmediato, pero volvería en su forma humana y entonces él le contaría.
Jacob no dejaba de tentar su suerte.
