Storks and Wolves
Chapter 25
fusedtwilight: And now the final chapters begin. Just a few more chapters and it's all over. Tonight is a good night. First i'm updating storks and wolves. Second i'm seeing the new harry potter movie with animegirlkiki tonight. So yeah super excited.
So yeah. Embry and Sam are brothers.
We told Sam, we had to. He took it well. He wasn’t thrilled but he was accepting of Embry. It hasn’t changed how he views him.
Embry went to his mother and told her he knew it was Joshua. She broke down and told him the truth. I guess when little Quil, Billy, and Joshua visited Makah all those years ago she had a tryst with him. She had fallen for him you see, and he didn’t help her misguided sense of love by telling her he was single and had a good paying job. She bought it and slept with him. Then he left and she was confused why he didn’t give her his number or anything.
Flash forward a few months and Ellen learns she is with child. She travels to La Push hoping to rekindle an old flame. Until she learns Joshua is married with a kid and is a jobless drunken idiot. She told him she was preggo but the bastard freaked and left La Push never to be heard from again.
And guess what? Old Quil wasn’t the only one with a big secret. You see Billy’s wife Sarah was friends with Ellen. When Ellen told her she was pregnant with Joshua Uley’s baby she told Billy and Billy and Sarah took Ellen in and helped her through her pregnancy.
So yeah Billy always knew who Embry’s dad was. He never told because Sarah had sworn him and Sarah to secrecy. She didn’t want her son to have to grow up being known as the illegitimate bastard son of Joshua Uley. I don’t blame her.
The elders contacted the Makah elders. They tried to act sly but when we revealed Old Quil spilled the beans they dropped the act. We have agreed to meet on neutral ground. Elders and wolves. And yes I am going.
You would think it would be bad for a pregnant woman to be around a bunch of pissed off wolves right? Wrong. When the Makahs learned I was a wolf and pregnant they seemed to be both surprised and pleased by the idea. They agreed to no hostility as long as I was there.
I wasn’t too pleased to learn I HAD to go. But I trust my friends and pack mates to keep me safe. And this is important so I will do it.
Oh and this has all happened in a span of two months, so I should be about four months pregnant. Hard to tell because of those times I phased. But I am starting to show. I’m not too happy about that for two reasons. One I’m gaining weight, two it’s making sex with Embry more difficult. Difficult as in we have decided to wait until the baby is born. Were not very gentle when we do it and we don’t want to risk hurting the baby.
So yeah I have to wait about five months before I can have sex again. And let me tell you, having a baby doesn’t always make you horny. I read that not every woman going through a pregnancy gets a sex boost. But I was just one of the lucky ones I guess. And let me say being this horny and having to wait five month’s for sex it a bitch. And to top it off I’m surrounded by shirtless guys all the time. I mean I have Embry I know but these damn hormones have like made me more aware of shit like that.
And finally Old Quil has cancer. Yeah big shock for us too. I remember Quil telling us. We were in the woods and he was so sad looking like someone just killed his dog. He told us his grandpa was going to die of cancer and then he broke down crying. And before anyone could do anything I had walked right up to him and held him as he cried.
I had to comfort him. It wasn’t just hormones. It was seeing that look in his face. I recognized it so well. I had a similar look on my face when my dad died. But what I went through with him was easier compared to Quil. My dad just died so suddenly. Quil has to watch as his grandpa slowly and painfully dies. Isn’t that a bitch?
They were keeping Old Quil on the council. They said it was because of years of loyal service. One little mistake can’t undo all of that. I was inclined to think they wanted to make his remaining days on earth as comfortable and happy as possible.
Embry and Jake were really happy to see me comfort Quil. Hell I even cried with him. After my turn the guys had their time to hug Quil and lend him support.
Jake was real pleased with me helping Quil like that. He thought it was my maternal instincts kicking in. Then I punched him in the gut. I have a reputation to uphold you know.
Now that my pregnancy has gotten stronger so has my scent. Quil, and Jake were still bearable thanks to the power of imprinting. Seth and Embry are a different story. They are more protective of me than ever. I swear my own mother never mothered me as much as those two. I can’t as much as sneeze without them freaking out. And the touchy feely crap! It seems like they always had to be touching me, weather it was leaning on me or holding my hand. I liked it in a way, there was something comforting about it but it still weirded me out.
And then there’s Sam’s pack. I had been taking a nice little stroll on the beach and we run into Eric and some of his friends. You can guess what happened next. Little turds followed me all the way home. I talked to Sam and he said that since I had been leaving my house again my scent was all over the place and thus now I had not one, but two packs worth of wolves wanting to be my nanny.
We went to a bon fire which was a bad idea. All of Sam’s pack was there and all the un-imprinted ones kept on coming up to me and sniffing me, then all of a sudden they were my best friends. It was funny to see Seth and Embry get all defensive with all the wolves around.
I especially loved Embry’s reaction. He would get so jealous and wouldn’t let me go. The entire time he had his arm wrapped around me. And if any of the wolves got to close he would growl at them. I liked it; it had been so long since someone was possessive over me.
I was still going to Carlisle for my treatments. I was getting to know the Cullens a little better. Jasper was really helpful with my moods. Too bad he had to keep being a vampire a secret, he could make a lot of money with the whole emotion manipulating thing.
Alice how ever being the bossy over bearing fairy she was decided to have a baby shower. And that’s where I was now, at my own baby shower….god help me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leah P.O.V
I guess Alice had been planning this for a while now.
We were at the Cullen house, which was of course decorated to match the occasion.
Right now the mansion was only inhabited by women. Me, Esme, Alice, Rose, Bella, Nessie, Emily, Mom, Kim, and Rachel.
I had protested to the whole thing. I wanted a baby shower with some of MY friends, not acquaintances and people I barely knew. When I told Alice why she didn’t invite any of my human friends she simply said “Name one human friend and I will invite them.”
I stood there for five minutes, trying to figure out who I could call and invite to this. But sadly I couldn’t. I had friends before I phased, but afterword’s Sam kept me under lock and key. My friends tried to find out what was up with me, but do to Sam’s orders and my dark mood at the time (Dad dead, Sam left me for Emily, freak of nature) let’s just say I may have done too good a job at putting an end to those friendships.
So now I had to deal with what I had.
I didn’t even want a baby shower, but the little tyrant A.K.A Alice dictated otherwise.
“Ohhh that is so adorable,” Kim said gushing over the pair of baby booty I was holding. A gift from my mom.
“Seems like only yesterday I was trying to get you to wear yours. But every time I tried you would just throw a fit,” Mom said with a wistful sigh.
Esme, Kim, and Rachel were looking through some old albums mom had brought. I swear I almost popped the kid out then and there when I saw mom brought that damn thing.
“Oh my god you dressed Seth in girls cloths?!” Kim asked giggling so hard.
“I wanted a sister, not a brother,” I said shrugging my shoulders.
“It always made me laugh,” Mom said. “I would go in to give him his bottle and he would be in little skirt. Oh Harry would throw a fit.”
“I thought he could wear the hell out of those shoes.” I said and everyone burst into laughter.
Okay so you’re probably wondering why Sam, Jared and Paul let their imprints come into a house full of vampires? Well there was no way Emily was going to miss this. Kim just gave Paul those puppy dog eyes of hers. And Rachel? Well let’s just say it’s not Paul who wears the pants in that relationship.
I was surprised that Rachel wanted to come. We had never been really close, but then again we had never been enemies’ ether.
“So Leah have you any idea’s for names?” Emily asked me.
Her question caught me by surprise, four months and I haven’t even thought of names. “To be honest I haven’t put much thought into it.” I said.
“Leah!” Mom said chastising me.
“Well I have been a bit busy in case you didn’t notice.” I said.
“Well don’t worry you still have another six months to go,” Emily said.
God that seems like an eternity. And I am not looking forward to the day I have to give birth. Carlisle has noticed the baby is bigger than it should be. Now that we know my little girl is going to be a wolf we knew there would probably be some complications. Being a natural born wolf would make her bigger than most babies. Not a pleasant thought.
“So I hear you and Embry are an item?” Emily asked.
“Yeah we are dating. It just happened I don’t know how to describe it.” I was glad Emily was here. We still hadn’t fully bridged the gap between us. Probably never would fully, I’m not known for be very forgiving. But I was glad she was here none the less. This pregnancy thing has in a very much fucked up way brought us closer together. Which is interesting seeing how when a woman is having another woman’s husbands baby it drives them apart.
But that’s normal people, we sure as hell aren’t normal.
“It’s not that I have had some secret crush on him, or him me. Believe me I would know,” I said.
“Is it because of the wolf mind thing?” A small girl voice asked.
Me and Emily jumped. We turned and saw Nessie was sitting next to us. “Jesus kid I told you not to do that!” I said.
“Sorry,” She said looking sad.
“It’s okay.” I said patting her on the head.
“So would you know if Embry was in love with you because of the mind link? “She asked again.
“Yes, yes I would.” I said.
“So did Embry imprint on you?”
“No.” God I hate that fucking word. Next person who says imprint I’m going to punch in the face!
“Did you imprint on him?” She asked.
“No.” Okay guess I can’t punch the little brat without pissing off a roomful of vamps. But as soon as she comes of age.
“So…why did you fall in love with Embry if you had no feelings for him before?” She asked.
Crap why am I having this conversation with her? Shouldn’t her mom or freaky aunt be having this conversation?
“You see Nessie, love comes in many forms. There is instant love.”
“Like mommy and daddy?” She asked.
“Yeah,” I agreed. Only that was a case of food at first sight. “Then you have love that takes time to fully develop. I knew Embry for a while and he helped me when I was going through some tough times. And the more time I spent with him the more I realized I could trust him, and I came to care for him stronger than before. And it became love,” I explained.
God I sounded gay. Damn hormones.
“So will you and Embry get married?” She asked brightly.
…………………………….Huh?
“Sweetie don’t ask Leah so many questions.” Bella said coming to my rescue.
I shot her a look that clearly said thanks and she nodded back.
“I think Embry will marry you,” Nessie said suddenly.
Me, Bella and Emily looked at her shocked.
“What makes you say that?” I asked.
“He talks about you a lot.”
“He does?” I asked.
Mm hmm, every time he comes over and talks with Jake. Can I show you?” She asked extending her hand.
She had never used her power on me. Why was I nervous? It was only her memories. But it felt like I was spying on Embry. And I didn’t want to be one of those girls who spied on their boyfriends. I mean I had nothing to worry about. So why was I giving her my hand?
The second mine touched hers I became someone else.
Nessie P.O.V
I was looking for Jake.
I wanted to go hunting, and I loved to race Jake for food. I was following his scent and the scent of one of his friends. It was the one called Embry. I hope he is being nice to Leah; I would have to hurt him if he hurt Leah.
I heard voices talking, I recognized them. I wonder what they were talking about. I think I’ll just sneak in and see what they are talking about. Maybe something secret. I love secrets.
“Embry for God’s sake you and her have only been together for a few months,” I heard Jake say.
“I know Jake, but I love her. I mean really love,” Embry’s voice said.
“This is ridiculous, a year ago you could hardly stand her.” Jake said sounding frustrated.
“She has changed Jake. I know you have seen it too.”
“Of course I have, but I just don’t think now is the right time Em, what with the Makahs, the baby, and all kinds of stuff going on.”
“It’s not a big deal,” Embry mumbled.
I was getting closer and closer. I had to remember to thank Uncle Emmett for teaching me how to be sneaky. He was so funny.
“Not a big deal? Em this is practically a lifelong commitment.” Jake said.
I turned around the corner and saw Jake and Embry. Jake was pointing to something in Embry’s hands. On closer inspection I learned it was the same kind of charm bracelet Jake had made for me.
I jerked my hand back and gasped. Nessie didn’t know the significance of that charm bracelet but I did.
In Quileute culture instead of a ring to propose the men give the women a bracelet. Embry was going to propose to me.
“Oh shit!” I said.
I had everyone’s attention now. Bella looked horrified at Nessie hearing that. Blondie was glaring at me. Everyone else looked surprised.
“Leah what is it?” Rachel asked.
I was going to be sick.
I jumped up and ran for the bathroom. I ran upstairs as fast as I could and by god I made it just in time to puke the cake Esme had made for my shower.
Emily and Alice came rushing in.
“He’s going to propose,” I said before either of them could ask me what was wrong.
“What?” Emily said shocked.
“Embry, Nessie showed me a memory she had of him and Jake talking. He is planning on giving me the bracelet.”
Emily clapped her hands to her mouth shocked. Alice looked confused. “Charm Bracelets are how the men of our tribe propose,” Emily explained. “Its old school but it happens.”
Alice looked happy now. She was probably going through wedding plans now. The only thing I was planning on doing was running far, far away.
“I don’t know what to do,” I said.
“Would it be so bad if he asked?” Emily said wiping the corner of my mouth with a piece of toilet paper.
“The last guy to ask me to marry him was…”
“Was Sam.” Emily asked sadly.
“I’m going to go and tell everyone your okay,” Alice said. She must have known we were about to have a talk. Fuck I did not want to have a talk. Especially with Emily.
Alice left, shutting the door gently as she went. We stood in an awkward silence me and Emily. There was a time when we never had any kind of silence; we used to chat like little old ladies. Now look at us. Me pregnant with her fiancés, my former fiancé’s baby. In a bathroom belonging to our sworn enemies a clan of vampires. God does have a twisted sense of humor.
“Leah, I know I can’t apologize enough for what I did. But I tried to fight it, I really did,” She said her eyes beginning to mist. Why should she be crying? I’m the victim hear.
“But don’t let what happened with Sam stop you from finding happiness.”
“How can I not Em,” I said bitterly. “All of this has happened before, and now it seems like it will happen again.”
“What do you mean?” She asked.
“He’s a wolf, he hasn’t imprinted, I have fallen for him, and he’s Sam’s brother. That is just a formula for disaster,” I said softly. “I can’t go through that, not again.”
“Then why? Why even begin a relationship with him?” She asked.
“Because he was the only one. He is the only one I could have talked to, who I could confide in, about everything. My human life and my werewolf life. And it just felt so right at the time. But now…it’s too soon,” I said covering my face.
“Leah, it’s just a promise. It doesn’t have to mean marriage,” She said gently.
I lowered my head. She doesn’t understand. For Embry…hell for a guy to give such a thing meant they were getting serious.
We fucked that was true; I loved to be around him, to listen to him as he told me the short stories he had written. To laugh as he kissed my belly and had little conversations with my yet to be born daughter. To feel him behind me as we spooned, falling asleep in the comfort of one another’s presence.
I realized Embry was ready to settle down. As absurd as it sounds for a seventeen year old guy to be ready to settle. He had everything. A good job, a hot girlfriend, a child on the way (although it’s not his). Jake was right, four months was too soon.
I had told Nessie love has many forms. I should have told her some people could love stronger than others. I had failed to see the strength of Embry’s love for me.
The problem was I didn’t know if I was ready to settle. I was still young, and just because I was having a baby don’t mean I was ready to be a mom.
Embry loved me so much he was willing to go head first into an eternal commitment. Problem was I wasn’t sure I was ready…or willing.
