Wonder ~ Paul Lahote

seven

So as it turns out my father was of wolf descendant, the elders were unsure of my bloodline and how far it went back, they hadn't heard of my fathers name within the Ouileute bloodline or anyone in my family come to that so its a bit of a mystery.

For the last few weeks I had been working with Sam religiously, working on my shifting, he's been training me, helping me gain confidence in myself and my wolf. Thankfully the pack had warmed up to me pretty quickly and welcomed me with open Paws.

I was sitting on the porch at Emily and Sam's reading my book, when Jacob and Bella had shown up.

"I'm glad you're here Bella, maybe we can get a break from Jakes obsessive inner monologue" Embry said.
"I wish Bella would call" that was Paul.
"I wish Bella wouldn't call" Jared added, with s mouth full of chicken.
"Maybe I should call Bella" Embry said.
"Maybe I should Call Bella and hang up" and that was Quil finishing the teasing. It's like they had rehearsed that.
I couldn't help but smile at the 4 boys teasing Jake about Bella. I'll be honest it was becoming quite annoying hearing his every thought. Definitely going to learn how to block him out, I'm sure Sam if not one of the elders can help me.

Leah was having a bad day today, and when that happens even I knew to let her be. She was still beating herself up her her fathers death. I was there for her as much as possible but sometimes it was easier to let her grieve.
She stormed out the house and stopped in front of the two. Emily's house was like a base/ safe place for us wolves it was brilliant.

"Bella this is Leah Clearwater, Harry's daughter"

"Hey, I really sorry about your father"

"If you're here to torture Jacob some more feel free to leave" she had said before stomping off and jumping off the edge of the of the rocks and shifting into her wolf.
"Fun isn't she" Jacob said after she left.

I rolled my eyes at this "Hey leave her alone" I said to jacob, "hey Bella" I said greeting her before turning around chasing after Leah to calm her down, shifting into my own wolf.
I searched and searched for Leah but she was no where to be found.
I quickly realised I was no lost and hadn't a clue on how to get back.

I felt a presence and I looked around and made eye contact with the red-headed vampire that Sam had briefly told me about. She smirked and I growled. Maybe I was stupid to go after her on my own but the wolf in me told me I needed to at least try.

She started running as I did. During the training sessions with Sam we had collectively discovered that I had accelerated speed.
I was hot on her tail but she was hopping from over the treaty line and up into the trees. I was still chasing her when I realised I wasn't alone in the pursuit.
Paul and Jared had also joined me as we were all relentlessly chasing the red-headed woman.

As she leaped into the air and without thinking I did too and she had bashed me away to which resulting in me tumbling over the edge of a cliff. Gosh my luck hadn't been on my side since phasing, since this is the second hill I've gone down.
There wasn't much on my mind the entire way down but I was hurting. I'd shifted back into my human form mid fall and to say I thought deaths could embrace was coming sooner then I thought, was quite scary.
Thankfully after shifting back I had somehow managed to stay fully clothed. Not really sure how that came to be but I was grateful nonetheless.
Paul and Jared watched in horror as Victoria had smirked and got away whilst their attention was on me.

I landed at the bottom with an almighty thump. I was hurt, it had definitely knocked the wind out of me.

"Tierney!!" I heard whilst I was laid out flog on my back. The voice was from Paul, who was running over with Jared following closely behind.
"You're going to be alright T" Jared said soothingly as Paul carefully picked me up rushing back to Emily's.

"I'm fine guys, stop fussing please" I said quietly as Paul placed me down on the sofa.
"Evidently you're not so shush" my accelerated healing has kicked in thankfully so I wasn't in as much pain as I was.

"Nothing broken thankfully, with a bit of rest you should be as good as new, Tierney" Sam spoke softly. He has taken me under his wing ever since my phasing. I was grateful for him. Treated me like a little sister.

Leah has arrived back after she caught wind of the accident. Paul shot out of the door and straight over to her.

"This is your fault! If you hadn't run away like that Tierney wouldn't have followed and she wouldn't be hurt right now!" Paul bellowed at her. Tierney could hear everything from where she was laying. "Sam, please calm him down, I don't blame Leah, it was my own fault for chasing after Victoria" he nodded and left to calm Paul down, resulting in Emily coming to my side.

"I didn't mean for her to follow me and get hurt. I didn't ask for this" Leah argued her case back.
Paul was angry that his imprint has gotten hurt because of the red-headed leech. He wanted someone to take his anger out on and unfortunately Leah had been his target.

Tierney didn't blame Leah one bit, she was stupid to have thought she would be able to take Victoria on her own, she was just glad Paul and Jared was there to help her. Otherwise it most likely would have ended completely different from the brunette. The red-headed blood sucker was smart, she knew what game she was playing and she was enjoying every second of it.
