Paul's Rage & Eli's Soul

      *Paul's Pov*

        I can't believe it...

        After dissing on the imprint bonds for so long, this is what happens. I IMPRINT ON A F***ING GUY!

        "What the hell! I'm not f***ing gay!" I roared out causing everyone to look at me, and then my so called imprint, stared at me with pure confusion on his face. That was it I couldn't take it anymore, I felt my body begin to shake in rage and confusion. It only grew more intense as I could hear Leah yelling at me, she raced toward the beach from the tree line. A string of cusses left my lips, I could not deal with her right now, my wolf howled in rage at the very sight of Leah standing in front  of MY imprint, trying to keep US apart...

        I froze. I wasn't gay, at least I had never looked at a guy that way before, and I also had always been with a woman. And since when did this guy become MY anything? I couldn't shake these thoughts assaulting my brain. With Leah only adding to the already dangerous mix. I calmed myself enough to try and listen to what Leah was screaming. "- Don't you dare Paul! Back the F**k away from him, your only going to hurt him if these keeps up!" How dare she...HOW DARE THAT B***H even think I would hurt him! I couldn't hold back any longer, but before I started to shift I felt Jared grab hold of my arm dragging me off into the woods. With each step, the pain in my heart only grow. Why me? My wolf seemed to cry along with my soul. Something must really be wrong with me.

        *Eli's Pov*

        My life always seems to be one mess to another. One moment Leah and I were having fun on the beach and the next some a**h***s come over being jerks to Leah. It all seem to move so fast and before I know it Leah and the guy, who's body I couldn't help but to compare to a photo shot picture on the cover of 'MensHealth', but this guy looked even better. But dirty thoughts aside, I knew Leah was going to let her anger win. I didn't want her to regret something regardless if this guy was a jerk to her. So my body moved on it's own, and I stopped Leah's hand from punching the poor guy.

        What I didn't plan on was for Leah's anger to continue and for me to be the next target. I felt my body freeze for only a moment, then I quickly moved from the path of her hand. But I wasn't fast enough, Leah's hand knocked off my sunglasses and just grazed my cheek with her nail. I could feel the slight string but said nothing as Leah looked upon me with horror. I could only hold her and try to comfort her with soft words, but I knew the damage was done. The thing I had set out to stop had happened. She soon ran off into the woods and I could only look toward these 'gang' of men in a cold front. But my own temper would not be stopped as they tried to play these events as Leah's own doing. That, I would not have. So with words that stung and struck to their very core, I ripped them a new one and settled with a glare for each of the men, except Emily whom I gave a tiny smile towards, Knowing she hurt Leah made her not the best person in my book but until I met her myself she deserved my respect.

        I turned toward the last guy, the jerk who had started it all, ready to spout more of my mind. Yet, I couldn't speak a single word nor syllable. I could only stare into his bottomless eyes, they were like burnt sugar. Unpleasing to the sound yet such a unique color. My body felt light and warmed by the mire close proximity of his large body. He towered over my small frame, his shoulders broad and arms huge that rippled when he moved. His hair black as night and tussled by the beach wind, he looked like belong to the forest beside us. It was only moments later this handsome man left out an out cry, "What the hell! I'm not f***ing gay!" The words cut deep though I couldn't understand why. The scene only grew worse when Leah returned and stepped protectively in front of me as the man who I now registered was named Paul, began to shake violently. His friend soon dragged him away to the forest, and only with him away my body grew cold, Leah was barking at the group of guys asking what happened. But it was only muffled in the background. I took a deep shaky breathe before I uttered out loud, "Leah? Could we just go?"

        She stopped all movements and looked toward me, not saying a word. She only nodded slightly before bringing me numbingly to the car. In the blink of an eye we were here. Leah helped me inside her house, shushing her mother as I plopped on the couch with a sigh. Leah was soon by my side asking in a tiny voice what happened. Receiving no reply, Leah layed her head on my shoulder and hugged me. I couldn't help but smile through my sleepy eyes. This had been a very...experienced day in my new home of La Push.

        I could hear Leah's soft breathing against my ear, and Ms. Clearwater draped a blanket over us both. She dipped down pressing a kiss to the top of Leah's head, then shockingly she did the same to me. I could feel a tiny smile on her lips as she whispered, "Whatever the reason Elias, I'm glad you've come to stay with us. Thank you for still being there for Leah." No sooner did she then slip away upstairs towards bed. I smiled thinking of Harry. As I slipped into the depths of my subconscious I could just faintly feel a warmth filled my soul, as if I was being watched over from a distance. The presence made the depths of my soul hum as if in delight. Whether I was finally going crazy I didn't care, I could feel my wolf was near.
