AN UNLIKELY ALLY

3 CHANGING

When the elders admitted what they had planned Sam was furious. The only one not upset was Jake. Although the death glares he kept shooting me were beginning to piss me off. I stood up and walked up to him "If you can't stop glaring at me get the fuck out of MY FUCKING HOUSE JACOB BLACK." Everyone looked at me, and Jacob jumped up and shoved me "This is a pack meeting bitch why don't you leave." I glare at him, and before I could say anything, Paul is in front of me as well as the rest of the pack. Sam's voice changes and I see Jacob cower "Jake stop a lot has changed since you left and this is Bella's house she has a right to be here." "This house belongs to the leeches." "Like I said a lot has changed since you left." I look at Sam "I can't if Jacob is going to behave this way get him out of here." I turn to walk away, and I feel Paul pull me up against him "your not leaving Isabella. You are a part of the tribe you have a right to be here." I look up at him and smile. "Seriously Bella they have only been gone a day, and you have already moved on."

I heard Paul growl next to me, and I spun around "you weren't here to help me through this and Paul was. Just because he is helping me heal and making sure you don't make it worse does not mean there is something going on here Jacob. You don't realize how close we all became while you were gone. You know that Victoria has come close to killing me at least five times since you left. I didn't know you were even gone. I thought the reason you were not around was that I was pretty much living here to stay safe. Paul would come and keep an eye on me so they could hunt. Don't worry I won't ask you to help keep me safe seeing you now lets me know you would love for Victoria to kill me." I continued up the stairs with Paul following behind me. "You know that I only watched you because Sam made me right." "Yes, Paul that is why you always stayed outside. I don't understand the change, but I am fine you really are helping me." "I am glad Isabella I just don't want you becoming a zombie again." "Thanks, I understand where Jacob is coming from." "What do you mean?" "Paul he is in love with me and well I chose Edward over him twice it has to be hard for him." "Yeah, but he shouldn't be making it harder on you. All of us believed that he was going to be the one for you. We all believed that this time was going to be different. We would hear the big one constantly warn him that if he hurt you again, he was no longer a brother of his." "Yeah, Emmit loves me like a kid sister. He tells me constantly that I remind him of his real little sister."

"Oh, he remembers his human life." "Well his sister." "Why did he chose the life he has?" I chuckled I am only telling you this because they said they were planning on telling you their stories. Emmit was mauled by a bear. Rosalie found him and carried his nearly dead body to Carlile to have him change Emmit. See Emmit reminded Rosalie of her best friends little boy." "What about Rosalie?" "That is a sad story. Let's say she was hurt badly for a woman by her fiancee and his friends. They left her for dead in the streets where Carlile found her. He had hoped for her to be a companion or mate for dickwad, but they were never more than siblings. I know he has lied, but this is coming from Rosalie. She never wanted us together so she would have told me from the beginning." "Dickwad how and why was he changed?" "Oh, he was dying form an illness I forget now what it was I think it was scarlet fever or something. Well, Dickwads parents had already died of the illness and before passing his mom begged Carlile to save her son. She hinted that she knew what he was so, Carlile promised. Dickwad was the first person he changed." "So, Esme came later." "Yes, Esme was changed because she tried to commit suicide after losing her child. She threw herself off a cliff. As for Carlile, he was changed when he went on a religious raid to kill vampires. Unlike his father who would kill anyone, they suspected or kill innocents to keep face Carlile only ever killed real vampires. Unfortunately, he found a nest and was bitten." "Wow, so really none of them chose the life they have now." I laughed "honestly Paul not many chose that life. Most of the individuals that have chosen that life lie behind the walls of Volterra with the Volturi." "The Volturi are the kings of the Vampire world?" "Yep, Aro, Caius, and Marcus all want me to join the guard." "Do you think you would?" "If they come for me and I don't have a choice then yes. As of right now it is either change or be executed. They then will hunt the Cullens down and kill them as well."
