A Cullen Loves A Hale Book 3

Chapter 3 Change Is Not Always Bad

Sunday night Samantha and Alexis drove back to U. W. alone. They talked about how Alexis was still in love with Emmett and that she would never be able to move from him. That the mating bond was just too strong, Samantha gave her friend a sympathetic look.

"Then why don't you try to work things out with Emmett?"

"I can't, Sam, I don't trust him anymore. He's shown me that I am not the most important person to him and that is not the Lycan way. You'll have to understand that too when you turn. Your mate is everything, nothing and no one is above your mate."

"Maybe he didn't understand that at the time?" Samantha points out.

"Rosalie did, she put you above her family and that was the right thing to do."

"That's just Rose being selfish, she wants what she want, damn everyone else." Samantha says with a laugh.

Alexis smiles, "That's how mates are, you're lucky, Sammy"

"So what are you going to do?" Samantha asks.

"I don't know, I'll ask Ambrus see if he knows of a way to shut off these feeling I have so I can lead a semi- normal life. The worst part is that Alice insists that we are going to end up together anyway and I don't see that happening."

In the meantime Emmett and Rosalie are also on their way up to school, and Emmett is telling Rosalie about what Alice had told him and of his plan to ask Ambrus for help. He knows its a long shot but he has to try.

"Honestly, Em, I think it might work. Ambrus only wants to see Alexis happy and he already knows that you are her happiness. So he may be willing to get you some advice as to what to do to win her back."

"I hope so, Rose, because I'm lost. I don't know what to do to earn her trust back."

"We'll find a way." Rosalie assured him.

The next day when classes started Alexis sought out Ambrus.

"Why hello, Pup, did you have a nice Spring Break?"

Alexis gave him a strained smile, "It was fine, except for a few incidences."

Ambrus' brow furrowed, "What happened, Pup?"

"I'll tell you after class."

Their class seemed to drag on, but once it finally ended, Ambrus and Alexis bolted for the exit. The kept walking while Alexis kept ringing her hands. Ambrus watched her from the corner of his eye until he couldn't take it anymore.

"Pup, stop, what happened, it cannot possibly be that bad. Here sit down, gather your thoughts and tell me what happened."

Alexis sat down on the bench, and took a deep breath, then she launched into her explanation about what had happened that past weekend. That Edward was harassing Bella and that he attacked her. Upon hearing this, Ambrus growled menacingly.

"Oh you don't have to worry, Ambrus, I bit his arm off at the shoulder."

This caused Ambrus to laugh, "So what's the problem?" He asks.

The problem was I didn't get to finish the job because I was tackled by Emmett, we rolled down into a valley and he wouldn't let me get to Edward. Then it happened. He told me to kill him because he couldn't live without me anymore. Emmett got down on his knees and wait for me to tear him apart."

"So what did you do?"

"I left him there. I swear I had the perfect opportunity and I couldn't do it. My heart started to ache at the thought of his death and I realized that I'm still in love with him. I felt so much love and sorrow looking at him, Ambrus, that the only thought that occurred to me was to run. Emmett asked me to come back to him, but I can't. What am I going to do, Ambrus, help me!"
