Surging Desire || CullensxOc

"Seth?" I questioned. My phone is pressed against my ear. I'm gripping the phone so tight I was scared it might break under the pressure. Hearing from one of my friends after so long made me excited. I was basically bouncing in my seat.

"Kaylia. I miss you" Seth sounds whiny as he speaks. His voice has changed since I last seen him. It's deeper now, if I ever see him in person again I feel like I would be meeting a new person.

"It's nice to hear your voice" I tell him playing it cool.

"Look I know I haven't spoken to you in a while. And what I'm about to ask you makes me feel awful" he stated.

"No, it's okay. You can ask me for anything" I replied.

I hear him sigh, and I can hear the sound of his hand dragging through his hair. "Sam has personally asked me to call you. He doesn't have your number, and he knows if we ask the other Cullens they will say no. Can you come to the reservation?"

He's right my mates would never allow me to stop foot past the treaty line. Considering it's a point of death I understand the rule regarding it. But Sam of all people needs me there, and whatever it is I will help them. They were always kind to me and never made me feel bad when I was on their land before I was a vampire. Though I know it'll be different this time, and I would welcome it.

"Me," I choke out a laugh, "I'll be killed on sight."

"No. You won't be harmed in anyway. Sam and the council members agreed for you to come here. We need your help" he explained a tone of desperation in his voice.

"On a scale of one to ten. How urgent?" I asked trying to gauge what I will be walking into.

"Fifteen" he quickly answers.

"Okay honey. I'll be there in a minute or two" I hang up and jump off my balcony landing on the ground and flashing off. I ran as fast as I could so no one would stop me if they saw me. I knew Alice wouldn't be able to see what I was doing. Since my future involved the pack. I know something bad must have happened for them to call me. But I was also excited, I missed all of the pack. I know it won't be rainbows and sunshine. But it's a start.

When I make it to the border line in the woods I paused for a moment. I was a little worried to step over it. But when I hear rustling from across the stream and Sam's wolf step out into the clearing; I step over when his wolf nods at me and turns around running away. I follow closely and we come to a stop just before the open area to their homes. Sam goes behind a tree and shifts, I can hear the cracking of his bones and it makes me cringe. The smell of wet dogs heavy in the air and its nauseating.

Sam walks into the sunlight beaming down on the grass in shorts. My body still hidden in the shadows of the trees.

"Scared of a little sunlight Kay?" Paul snickers coming out from a different section of the trees. I hadn't even heard them with how focused I was on the sun.

"No...?" I basically asked instead of answered.

"The red eyes are tripping me out" Paul states. I snicker and roll my eyes. They tripped me out the first time I saw them too. It would take a little while for them to turn topaz.

It felt good that neither were treating me like a monster. It's almost like they were choosing to ignore they had a new vampire on their lands.

"Are you sure it's okay for me to be here?" I questioned in reserve from moving forward.

"Alphas orders. It's fine until it's not" Paul states shrugging his shoulders.

"We'll come on then. We don't have much more time" Sam tried to smile. But I could tell it was tight. I understood. It was just our nature, it made me a little sad though.
