Jasper frowned as he and the other guards (Alec, Felix, Demetri, and Jane) returned home from another night of "light snacking". Hopefully, he had his pet to talk to.
Speaking of Jacquelyn, she was still in the room asleep. The snakes were still in the basket. Upon hearing him, Minerva slithered out of the basket and said to him, "You do not seem to enjoy yourself here."
Jasper said to her, "Why would you want to say something crazy about that?"
"You are not happy," Minerva said again.
Jasper frowned as he stared at the tiny snake. Snakes were smart he said to himself, but they are bothersome.
Just then, Jacquelyn woke up and stared at him. Jasper did not know what to do or say. Minerva said to her, "He is broken. He needs to be put back together."
Jacquelyn nodded; now was the time which Minerva said that she would find true love. But would she be able to love a broken vampire?

La Push, Washington
Leah Clearwater sat sobbing in the kitchen of the house she and Sam Uley had shared. Earlier, she had learned from Jacob Black that her husband had been cheating on her with her own cousin, Emily Young. Emily had been abandoned by her husband Steve Johnson the year before.
What Leah didn't understand was how Sam could have taken advantage of that poor woman like that. Emily had had a child with Down syndrome and another child with autism, plus two children who were albinos and a son who had vitiligo. Emily had been the unluckiest woman in La Push.
Not like Leah, since all her children were born healthy. It was unnatural for any child in La Push to be sick. But that was not the worst of it.
Leah's father, Harry, had just died of a heart attack a few weeks before; the memory of the funeral was still fresh in her mind. She needed to go to her old house and check up on her mother, Sue.
Leah grabbed the car keys and was about to leave when she spotted a red car speeding toward her. It was Bella Swan, who had just left her husband a few hours earlier.
