Chapter 18
fusedtwilight: Well here it is. The last chapter, Enjoy. I want to thank everyone who has reviwed this story, you guys have been great!
Sara P.O.V
We got Embry’s heart beating.
We had to cover his wound with Emmett’s shirt. We had to give him mouth to mouth resuscitation. It worked but Embry had lost to much blood to stay conscious.
Soon Carlisle and the others joined us, and Carlisle immediately went into doctor mode.
"We need to get him back to the house now." He said urgently.
"Where is the vampire?" Bella asked.
"Over there." I said pointing to the girls who were still tearing Vincent to pieces.
"Who are they?" Esme asked.
"Just some of his friends." I said.
"And there tearing him to pieces?" Rose asked.
"Not by choice, I made them want to." I said brushing Embry’s hair with my hand.
"Nice." Kate said with a smile.
"Awesome, I knew there was a warrior underneath all that meekness." Emmett said patting me on the shoulder.
"We need to burn the pieces." Jasper said.
"Girls." I called.
The twins instantly stopped what they were doing and looked at me.
"They’re going to help you burn the pieces Okay." I said gently.
"Okay." They replied and continued to tear what was Vincent to smaller bits.
Jasper and Edward walked forward to help.
While Carlisle talked to a naked Jacob who was thankfully covering himself. I could only imagine how bad this was for him. Wolves have a naturally higher temperature but with all this snow I really do feel bad for Jake. What with him being a boy and all.
I heard a whooshing sound and felt the warmth of a fire. I looked and saw the boys had started a fire. They and the girls were picking up pieces and throwing it into the fire. Soon purple flames were coming of the fire.
"I think we’re going to have to do a blood transfusion he has lost a lot of blood. I have no idea how it would affect your kind." He said to Jake.
"How soon do we have to do it?" Jake asked.
"As soon as possible." Carlisle said.
I was so focused on the conversation I forgot all about the twins. A piercing shriek ran out through the mountain. We all turned and saw Illyria looking at her hands in horror. Her hand had a piece of Vincent and she looked so scared, I felt bad for her.
"You!" She screamed glaring at me in such a way I flinched. "You did this you killed him!" She roared.
The Cullens made a defensive line in front of me growling and hissing at her. But she was driven by blind rage. She was about to spring forth and attack but her sister grabbed her around the middle.
"No sister let it go!" Natasha pleaded.
"SHE KILLED HIM, I’LL KILL THE BITCH." Illyria roared.
"Don’t be stupid you can’t fight them all!" Natasha said fighting to keep her sister still.
"BITCH, WHORE, SUCCUBUS!" Illyria roared.
"Jasper! Calm her down!" I called to the blonde.
He nodded and Illyria calmed down.
"I swear I’m going to kill you!"
At least she isn’t cussing.
"Please don’t kill us; I’m sorry she was enthralled with Vincent." Natasha said.
She spoke to me. Her eyes full of fear. She was afraid of me, of what I had done. I didn’t like the way she was looking at me. It made me feel…..inhuman.
"Go." I said.
"What? We should kill the one at least." Kate said, "She may come back for revenge."
"Please don’t kill her; she’s all I have left." Natasha begged.
She was right. Without her sister she would be all alone in the world. I had nothing against Natasha or Illyria even if she was a real you know what.
"Go, but don’t ever come near me or my family ever again." I said.
"We won’t I swear." She said and began to walk away with her sister still in her grip.
"This isn’t the last you hear me! I’ll be back; I’ll avenge Vincent I SWEAR IT!" Illyria roared.
"We’ll go take care of her." Edward said.
"No let her go Edward, her sister will handle her." I said stroking Embry’s cheek.
"You heard her, what if her sister can’t handle her?" Edward asked.
"Then we will." I said.
"I like this new Sara." Kate said with a smile.

Embry P.O.V
I woke up to light and warmth. There was a beautiful humming sound; it was sweet, and angelic.
I could smell leech but the one smell that really perked my attention. It was Sara’s scent I turned to the sound of the beautiful humming and saw Sara knitting a shirt.
"Hey beautiful." I whispered.
She looked at me and her face brightened up. Just seeing her face glow with happiness made my heart sore.
She came to my and gently grabbed the side of my face and gently kissed me on the lips.
"Now that’s a wakeup call." I said my voice fluttery.
She giggled and kissed me again "It’s about time you woke up; we were wondering if you were ever going to wake up." She said fixing my hair.
"We?" I asked.
"Yeah, you have been sleeping for three days Embry; Vincent really did a number on you." She said.
"What happened?" I asked. It was all fuzzy.
"I’ll tell you later. Right now I got to go downstairs and let the others know you’re up." She said kissing me one the nose. "Be right back...” She said happily then left the room.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Rose P.O.V
I watched as Sara excitedly left the room to go tell the others the good news.
I waited for her to pass the corner before I made my move. I opened the door and saw the dog was awake.
"What are you doing here?" He demanded.
"I’m here to talk to you about Sara." I said.
"Great put me back in my coma." He said rolling his eyes.
I walked up to him and slapped him on the side of his head.
"OW!" He said rubbing his head and glaring at me.
"Cut the crap. This is serious." I said glaring at him. "Sara killed him." I told him.
"Really?" He said looking surprised "That’s my girl." He said smiling.
"No idiot." I snapped "Do you think she is really handling this okay?" I asked.
"Well yes." He said.
"Stupid. She may be a vampire, but you know how vulnerable she is. She had to tap into some serious emotions to kill him like that. She even activated her power to force those twins to help her do it." I said.
I watched in satisfaction as he realized how bad the situation was. I guess even he isn’t dumb enough to not realize it.
"Has she said anything about it?" He asked.
"No, just that she killed him is all. And you don’t have to be Jasper to see how bothered she is about what she did. Everyone from me to Esme has tried to console her but she just shrugs it off. I’m worried about her, which is why I want you to stay with her." I said.
"What?!" HE asked looking shocked.
"I said—"
"I know what you said but I can’t believe it." He said.
"Look I admit I would have preferred you two stay away from each other... But while you’ve been in you cozy little coma I have been watching Sara. She never left your side only doing so when we insisted she needed to feed. But other than that she was always with you. I have no idea why but you and she have formed a bond, not imprinting or such nonsense but a bond none the less. She needs you because right now you’re the only one who help her, because….she loves you and you love her." I said gritting my teeth.
"You don’t sound pleased about that." He said raising an eyebrow.
"Believe me there are men out there I think would be better for her, but then again she could do worse. What I’m trying to say is I won’t give you any more trouble about it." I said. Wow harder then I thought it would be.
"Thanks." He said with a happy smile. Got to fix that.
"But don’t think I won’t be watching mongrel." I said and his smile vanished. "I’ll be watching and the second I see you screw up, treaty or no treaty I will find you and do onto you as Emmett does to the Ursa population." I said with a twisted smile. I had to keep him on his toes; I didn’t want my reputation as an absolute bitch to be ruined.
"So…..truce then?" He asked.
"Truce." I said.
-------------------------------------------
Embry P.O.V
Man three days? My mom must be pissed.
I still haven’t told her. Jake gave us permission to tell our families about us being wolves, but I was taking my time trying to figure out exactly how to come out to her. I didn’t want to give her a heart attack. Better not think that around Seth and Leah.
After Blondie’s little talk we sat in silence. We said our piece nothing more, soon the sound of feel walking against the floor sounded and Sara, Carlisle, Jake, Quill, Phillip, Nathan, Seth, And Leah all walked in.
"Rose?" Carlisle said surprised. "What are you doing here?"
"I was coming up to check on Sara, Wolf boy here said she would be right back so I thought I would wait for her." She said with a smile.
"Okay then, how are you feeling Embry." Carlisle said and immediately began to check my pulse and other doctor things.
Jake and the others soon crowded around the bed. Patting me on the shoulder, messing up my hair.
"Man Embry you were messed up." Phillip said. Phillip was always one to open his mouth and state the obvious. "But man you caught him by surprise, you see the look on his face when you popped out of nowhere and CHOMP." He said excitedly "Man I love be a wolf." He said with a smile.
"I thought for sure I was a goner." I said.
"You almost were, you would have been fine but when you phased you reopened your wounds, you almost bled to death." Leah said.
"Almost?" I asked.
"Jake and Quill donated their blood to help keep you alive." Seth said..
I looked at Jake and Quil and smiled. These two had a one in three chance of being my brother, I wonder when they made the choice to donate blood did the thought cross their mind like it is in mine? Did they think that maybe because I might be there blood brother there might be a chance there blood would have the best to succeed? Would this little incident help give me clues to my paternity?
"You lost a lot of blood. And your wound had a harder time closing after you phased." Carlisle said.
"Did we get all the vampires?" I asked.
"A lot, but the rest ran for it. They weren’t going to die for Vincent." Carlisle said.
"What about those twins?" I asked.
"Sara let them go, the one was really pissed but the other was too scared of Sara." Rose said proudly.
"Why did you let them go?" I asked Sara who was back to knitting her sweater.
"There had been enough killing that day; there was no more need for bloodshed." She said staring at her work.
"What about my mom?" I asked Jake.
"Yeah about that." He said rubbing the back of his head.
"Our great leader has taken the liberty of informing your mother of our furry status." Nathan said giving Jake a stern look.
"You did what?" I shouted.
"I had no choice Embry, your mom was threatening to call the police and everything. I had one of our wolves show her we were serious." Jake said.
Show her? Oh god he didn’t. Seth and Phillip were looking away nervously, Nathan and Leah were glaring at Jake, Quil was Quil. He had a smile on his face enjoying the show. Jake did, he had one of our pack brothers phase in front of my mother!
"JAKE!" I shouted.
--------------------------------------------------
Sara P.O.V
Embry stayed with us for another three days.
He was fully healed but he wanted to spend some time with me while he was up here. Jake and the others left a few days ago. They had lives to get back to after all. Things had settled down in Alaska. Emmett and Garrett had a debate on who killed the most. The debate got to the point where the two had a fight. Believe it or not it was a tie.
Nessie was mighty upset she wasn’t able to help fight. She was starting to realize that although she was stronger and faster than humans she was nowhere near that of a full vampire. According to Edward she was starting to go through a rebellious phase were she would do dangerous things to prove how tough she was.
The other night all us girls had a night out. We left all the boys at home and went out hunting and into town to do a little shopping. I never had a girl’s night out before, I never had friends and my mothers had a girl’s night out every Friday that ended with her getting arrested. It was so much fun! Tanya and Kate were a riot, Apparently they were well known by the men in town. Tanya teased Kate without mercy by flirting with so many men. Kate couldn’t now that she had a mate. Alice said that Tanya and her sisters were the cause for the succubus myth. It was their love for all men that caused them to turn to animal blood.
Tomorrow the Cullens would be going back to Forks. I on the other hand was staying in Alaska.
"You don’t have to stay you know." Embry whispered into my ear.
We were outside. Just him and me enjoying the beautiful Aurora above our heads. It was so beautiful. I had already informed The Cullens and Embry of my decision to stay. The Cullens understood; Embry was still trying to convince me to go. Tanya and the others were more than happy to have me stay.
"I have to stay, just for a little while." I said hugging him.
"This isn’t because of what the elders said is it?" He asked seriously.
"Partly." I said.
"Sara, don’t worry about them. Things are different then what they used to be, I’m sure we can convince them to forget the whole thing." He begged.
I leaned forward and kissed him. "I want to go back with you all I really do. But I know how bad things are with both packs right now Embry. And there right, I need to learn how to control this power of mine. It’s too dangerous for me to not learn how to control. And I’m not ready to return to Forks." I said burying my face into his neck and breathing in his scent (And trying not to gag) "There are too many memories there, what with my mother and everything. I need to just get away for a while, I promise I will call and everything. I just need to make a few important changes right now before I can return." I said.
He squeezed my hand and stared into my eyes, "You’re starting to get some gold into your eyes." He said.
I looked away from the look her was giving me, if only I could blush right now.
"Sara can I ask you something?" He said nervously.
"Sure."
"Do you regret killing Vincent?" He asked.
I was stunned. I had tried not to think about that night, I had taken up knitting as a stress reliever. I had made a sweat shirt for everyone, and I still had a pile to give away. I was thinking about giving them to a shelter for the homeless. Something nice for when winter comes along.
We stood in silence for a while but I knew I had to get this off my chest. I had spent my whole life holding it all in, and it had disastrous results.
"Yes I do." I whispered.
"Why? After everything he did to you why do you regret what you did?" He asked confused.
"It wasn’t really about pay back Embry. I just wanted him to hurt; I wanted him to hurt so much. It was like seeing what he did to you just brought up all the bad things that have happened to me in my life. I thought you were dead and none of it mattered anymore, all the things I kept in my heart was all I had left. All the fear, doubt, anger, betrayal, resentment. It all came rushing forward. And when I took control of those girls and tore his head off I liked it." I said hugging him hard. "I liked it so much; it felt so good taking his life. To look into his eyes like he has done to so many other people knowing he was at my mercy. And the rush of taking his life, it was so good Embry and it scares me to think there is something like that in me."
We said nothing just hugged each other comforting our selves from the harsh world. "Do you think I’m ugly?" I asked him.
"What no?" He said sounding shocked.
"But I liked it Embry, even now I get a thrill thinking about it. How can you stand being near me knowing I liked it, don’t I repulse you?" Yeah like I repulse myself.
"Sara it’s only natural for you to feel that. He hurt you, took from you, and was going to kill you. Anyone and everyone would have felt the same thing. And it’s not because you’re a vampire even a human would feel such a thing. Remember beauty is all in the eye of the beholder Sara. Everyone has a view on what true beauty is, but the only opinion that matters is our own and the opinion of those who love us most. No I don’t think your repulsive, I think your more beautiful now then ever because you avenged yourself on such a vile man and it kills you for doing it. After all he did to you, you regret taking his life you feel sorrow for what you did. And if that’s not real beauty I don’t know what is." He said.
God If I could cry I would.
"Thank you." I whispered.
We stood there watching the Aurora above us.
"So what are you going to do about your mother?" I asked.
Embry had talked to his mom. There had been a lot of yelling and lots of tears. I guess round one was over; round two was when he got home.
"I don’t know. I’m still ticked Jake had to do it like that, I still would have preferred to have told her myself but you know what they say about spilled milk." He said shrugging his shoulders "But we are going to have a serious talk though. It’s time I find out who my father is." He said.
"Are you sure? I mean you told me about how the only men who could be your father were married at the time." I said.
"I know but…for years I never really cared you know? I had my mom what did I need a dad for? Then I hit my teens and I started to think more and more about it, but I never asked her thinking maybe he walked out or was abusive you know? Then I phased and learned my father had to be from La Push. If one of these guys is my father it could cause a scandal. I don’t care if it’s Sam’s father although being related to Sam and that creepy little sociopath Jamie isn’t a pleasing thought. But Jake or Quil? I know there dads, I would eat at their dinner tables. Did they know or suspect then that I was there son? Why did they cheat on their wives? Why my mother? I shouldn’t let it bother me I know; we grew up together we might as well be brothers. If I find out who my father is it could destroy a family. But after Vincent, when I almost died something changed. Give me your hand." He said.
I gave him my hand. He opened his coat and lifted his shirt. Showing his very manly chest and put my hand on his heart.
"Do you feel it? Do you feel my desire?" He asked.
I focused, yes I could. A burning desire to know the truth once and for all. The only desire greater then that was the desire for……me. I smiled a little at that, I felt a little worse for leaving him now but this needed to be done.
"I feel it." I whispered.
"I know the risks. I know it shouldn’t matter I know this; if I find out who he is it could wreck a family. But I can’t resist no more. All my life I had just ignored the fact I had no father, while everyone else brought their fathers to school or did father son activities with their dads I was either tagging along or playing with my friends. But something has changed in me Sara after Vincent I keep thinking I could have died never knowing if my father loved me or not, or if he even knew I existed. Maybe I’m that bad person here for beings so selfish but I have to know." He said tears coming down his eyes.
"I think if it means this much to you, you should find out. You’re a good man Embry Call you deserve the truth. You kept quiet; you ignored all the signs telling you were to go. But I think you’ve stayed quit long enough. Your mother and father knew what they were doing was wrong. You were the consequence, If they love you they should help you understand. Besides if you learn the truth you don’t have to tell the others it will be your secret to keep. After all you are the secret." I said kissing his tears away.
"Thank you." He said hugging me foe all he’s worth.
"I love you." I said.
"And I love you….Sara." He got down on one knee.
Oh…..my…..GOD!
"Will you marry me?" He asked.
……..Holy crap!
Epilogue
Embry P.O.V
She said yes.
We kept it a secret for now, but I gave her the traditional head band as a promise. Right now only me and her knew and we decided to wait for her to return. Whenever I phase or am around Edward I think really hard about something else. They knew I was keeping a big secret but for now they weren’t prying.
Things are still tense between the two packs. I refused to so much as even look at Sam when I saw him. He tried to make a peace offering but I wasn’t ready to forgive him. If it wasn’t for him Sara and I would be together right now. I knew the Sam would be a problem in the future. When he and any of the other wolves find out I’m going to marry Sara they’re going to flip out I just know it. But I don’t care.
As to my father issue, I and my mom had a veryyyy long talk. She finally understood why I had been out so late. When she realized I was fighting monsters she broke down and begged me to stop. She knew I was gone so long because I had been hurt, anyone could have figured that out. She refused to tell me who my real father was, no matter how much I begged. Doesn’t matter there are other ways to learn the truth.
Sara and me are constantly in contact. We both got a facebook accounts so we can chat online. She’s having fun in Alaska, her training is going good. Tanya and Kate are like the blonde sisters she always wanted. I’m glad she’s doing okay, she deserves happiness.
So yeah everything is fine. Things are back to normal. But not for me, things are changing. I will find out who my father is and I will marry the woman I love. And if the elders, Sam, or anyone else don’t like my decisions Fuck them. My life, my rules.
