Disclaimer Twilight is not mine all I own is my OC Abigail Summers. Enjoy this chapter ^o^

(Chapter re-edited: 26/5/19)

"...Sam and Emily know something that I don't. Sounds weird because everyone has their secrets but it has to do with how Paul acted towards me all those nights ago. Sam is unnaturally tall, muscular and he was scolding hot to touch. I don't know what he and Paul are hiding but I am going to find out what. No matter the cost. – Abigail xx"

Previously: "Night mum and dad" I whisper to the photo of my mum and dad's smiling faces next to each other. I turn my light off as a tear slips from my eye as I close my eyes and snuggle deeper into my blankets, muffling my sobs.  

Abigail's POV

I'm awoken by the sound of boisterous laughter and loud foot falls. I roll over in my bed and see my alarm clock flashing in bright red numbers 7:00am. Argh! I won't be able to sleep now. I decide that it is better to get up than to try and fail at getting back to sleep. So with some difficulty to even lift myself up, I get out of my warm and soft bed and trudge grumpily towards the bathroom. Already feeling colder than before. I turn the sinks taps on and splash the cold water on my face to wake me up before patting my face dry with a towel.

I look at myself in the mirror not a blemish in sight. That's for once. I roll my eyes, but grab my concealer and rub some under my eyes to make the dark circles disappear. Now you're probably thinking. Why not just get changed if there are people over? Now I'm not one for getting ready, I like to stay in my pyjamas for as long as possible so if people are coming over they can deal with me in my pyjamas. I will change eventually usually after breakfast. Anyway. I finish my face and quickly brush my teeth to rid the smell of morning breath. I smile lopsidedly at myself before taking my hair out and shaking it around a bit to get the tangles out and redo the messy bun. My bangs falling out.

I go back into my room and quickly pull my quilt cover back up in a quick made bed. I fluff my pillow and lay it down. I open my bedroom door and walk down the long hallway towards the kitchen where the talking and laughter is louder. As I get closer I notice that there is a delicious odour in the air, I inch closer towards the kitchen around the corner. I walk into the area not expecting what I saw. As I lift my eyes up from the ground I notice 3 new bodies in the small space. I freeze when I see Paul a scowl on my face. I haven't seen him nor talked to him since the accident. He seems to freeze as well a look of guilt on his face.

I turn around and walk into the kitchen where the wall separating covers me. I see Emily slaving over the stove with 4 pans on, all cooking bacon, nothing else. I see her have a plate full of toast and another plate with scrambled eggs piled high. I grab a pair of tongs and begin to silently help her do the rest of the bacon. She seems to appreciate the extra help as she continues with other tasks for breakfast. I see her go over to the other bench, it is only then that I see her cooking pancakes on a pancake maker, next to it is a large plate staked with heaps of golden pancakes.

I take the bacon that was cooking and put it on the plate on the side and cover it with foil like the other plates to keep the bacon hot. I fill the pans with more bacon, I have no idea why we would need this much bacon but they were big guys so maybe they all ate a lot. As I finish the next batch I have a plate filled to the top with many pieces of crispy bacon. Ready to serve. I also see that Emily has finished the pancakes. I take out the plate of scrambled eggs and crispy bacon while Emily carries the pancakes and toast in her hands. As we get to the kitchen table it is only then that I notice that the guys are sitting at the table.

Emily and I place the plates of food onto the centre of the table where there are many plates stacked and serving spoons on the top. I find a seat and sit down in-between to of the smaller guys. They look to be 18 but would have to be younger because their eyes say differently. The bigger guys all reach out to grab the food before a wooden spoon is brought down on their knuckles. "No! Ladies first. You can all wait until she gets her servings first as you will eat it all." Emily scolding the guys is amusing as she is a natural mother and the guys visibly shrink under her pointed look. All looking towards me expectantly to get my food so they can eat.

I blush under their gazes and grab a plate and take 5 pieces of bacon a piece of toast, 2 pancakes and a spoonful of scrambled eggs. Once happy with the amount I grab a fork and knife and begin to tuck into my breakfast. I see the guys all eying the food hungrily. Emily happy with the amount of food I have allows the guys to go for the food. It is amazing actually, they all lean over and grab things at once using hands for the pancakes and toast, even for the bacon but use the serving spoons for the scrambled eggs. Boys will be boys.

As I continue eating my first plate I realise that I must either be a slow eater. Or the boy's just open their mouths and the food is gone because they are up to their second and third plates before my first is finished. I smile into my food it reminded me of my dad. A single and silent tear escapes my eye and I quickly rub it away with the palm of my right hand before anyone can notice. I feel eyes on me and timidly look up from under my lashes. 

What I'm met with I can't explain. I look into these brown eyes – no not brown, melted chocolate. They are so dark, yet they hold so much emotion. It's as if they are peering into my soul knowing all my darkest secrets and wanting to be the one to heal me. The eyes are so kind and beautiful, I'm locked in a trance of this person's eyes and can't look away. It's as if the world stopped. 

No sounds. 

No movements. 

No one else mattered. 

Everyone disappeared and it was just him and me. 

Embry's POV

As I look over at the girl sitting at the table I look at her face. She is beautiful to look at, she must have felt my eyes on her because next thing I know she looks up and our eyes connect. My brown eyes connect with her blue eyes that seem to look deep into my soul. Looking in her eyes felt like the world stopped. 

No sounds. No movement. I felt like everything that held me down to the earth snapped and I was joined to her. 

No one else mattered. She was my life. My soul. I lived for her and breathed for her. 

I imprinted on her. 

My imprint I finally found her. A cough broke our gaze from each other.

Myinner happiness came crashing down when I remembered her being Paul's bestfriend, now ex-best friend from his memories he accidentally shared between ourmind link, one of those being the love he has for this girl. The one girl he wanted to imprint on and not being able to control it. I just imprinted on Paul's girl. Not his girl. Ours. My inner wolf growls. 

I look back at the girl before I timidly look behind me where I see an angry Paul, shaking and trembling strongly as he glared at me. Sam and Jared rush him out the back of the house me following behind them. Leaving the beautiful angel at the table. I quick a glance at her and see she is blushing when she was caught staring at me. I smile before going outside.

Abigail's POV

I'm still sitting at the table when Paul begins to tremble and has an aggressive look on his face. He is grabbed by Sam and another guy before he is rushed out the back I look at the guy with the chocolate eyes when he is not looking. Shortly after Sam, Paul and the other guy are outside, chocolate eyes follows them but stops and gives me a small smile. I blush at being caught starring at him. I turn back to Emily and she has a look on her face as if she's used to this. I get up wanting to see what happened before I am distracted by all the empty plates scattered over the table, I shake my head and stack them up before I walk into the kitchen to Emily. 

The window in there having its curtain drawn so I can't see outside. I can't help but feel like they are hiding something from me. I hear some sort of animal noises in the forest area and I can't help the tremor that goes through my body, knowing that there are wild beasts out there. I put the dishes on the side of the sink before filling the sink with warm water and detergent before I begin to wash the dishes. My thoughts all taken up by a certain tall, tanned man with deep chocolate eyes and a beautiful, friendly smile. I blush at this.

Embry's POV

[A/N: wolves thoughts; Embry, Paul, Sam]

When I reach Paul Sam and Jared. Paul takes one look at me before the sound of tearing fabric and growling is heard. Paul is growling and snarling at us in wolf form. Jared walks back inside after Sam gives him a look. Sam and I quickly phase into our wolf forms. 'I'm gonna kill you CALL!' I snarl back at Paul who begins to prowl forwards as if stalking prey. 'You got that right.' Paul growls into our mental link 

'I can't help it man! And you know it. Just because you hated the idea of imprinting and being a protector of our land doesn't mean you get to be a dick to me when I found my im-' Paul cuts me off before I can finish my explanation 

'Don't you DARE say she is that word to you! She is mine and I have loved her for years! You can't just come along and do that to me!'

Paul lunges at me and tackles me to the ground snapping at my neck I snap back gripping his furry throat in my canines. As I bite him the metallic taste of blood assaults my mouth, Paul yelps from my teeth. Before he kicks me off and scratched the side of my body with his claws. 

I feel the pain of my skin tearing and the stinging sensation that follows I howl in pain before barreling Paul over with my head into his ribs. I have a satisfied smirk when I hear the crack of his bones, Paul gets back up and leaps onto me pinning me down while snapping and biting at my throat and face. There is saliva flying through the air as Paul and I snap at each other's jowls and throats.

I manage to get my hind legs under his belly and kick him off of my body 'ENOUGH! BOTH OF YOU STOP!' When we continue to fight each other Sam growls into our mental link 

'I order you both to stop fighting!' 

As if an invisible force takes control of our bodies, both Paul and I stop our antics. 'Really Alpha command. Sam?' Annoyed with Sam using his control over us I snap it back at him in our mental link, Paul seems to agree with me as he growls at Sam and begins to stalk towards him in anger, 

'Both of you need to calm down! Abigail is inside. Do you want her to see this?' Sam states 

'He has a point Paul'. I comment towards Paul's wolf form, he just snaps at me 

'Shut it Embry!' I quickly step back from his form. 

'Phase back and we will talk and hopefully Abigail didn't see what happened.' Sam states with finality. He disappears into the forest before I see him come back in human form.

I go into the woods and realise before I shift that I don't have any clothes, as they were shredded when I phased. Sam seemingly to know what my problem was, goes to the backdoor where we see Emily holding sets of clothing for us. Sam brings Paul and me a set each. I quickly phase and slip the cut off shorts on and make my way towards the house, where Sam is waiting for Paul and I. 

I look over to my left where Paul has an irritated look. "You both are not allowed to tell Abigail our secret until I allow you too. It's too early." I feel the same effect as before as the Alpha command is put in place. I hate the feeling. We all head back towards the house. As we make it to the backdoor I go inside and walk inside seeing my beautiful angel over the half wall, washing.

Abigail's POV

I finish the washing and go back where all the guys, Sam and Emily are standing or sitting around the lounge room, I stand awkwardly near Emily. She smiles at me "alright introductions" before looking to Sam with a soft smile, who seemed to calm down and melt when his eyes met hers. It was cute actually. How such a small woman like Emily could bring down such a large man like Sam. Their love for each other reminded me so much of my parents. Stop. I think to myself. No more tears. For now. 

Emily looks to me "ok, Abigail these are the guys. Guys this is Abigail. She will be staying with us from now on." Emily states with a smile the guys are in a line of sort she points at the first guy who is around 6 foot, one of the shortest, he has short cropped black hair like the rest of the guys, sun kissed skin, rippling muscles with washboard abs, (I knew this because he was shirtless). He had on a pair of cut off shorts and has a tattoo of two wolves in a ring with different tribal markings, that's when I noticed that they all had this on their right bicep. It was sorta gang like.

"This is Jared Cameron, he's 16" the boy being discussed looked up and smiled at me a little before mumbling a quick 'hello', I smiled in response with a small wave of my head, his head nods one last time in acknowledgement before he leaves for the lounge room. I'm guessing he was uncomfortable with everyone being a big group or he just wasn't comfortable around me being a new person and all. I turn back to Emily smiling "here we have Paul –" as she was saying his name I cut in

"Oh, I know exactly who he is. Ex-best friend and is the reason for why I'm here." I spit with venom, while glaring at him, he looks at my apologetically

"I'm sorry but –" I put my hand up

"NO!" I say before turning away from him, I vaguely see him shaking and glare in my direction before he walks away out of sight. Hopefully to cool off.

Emily looks at us then looks back at me with a surprised look before she smiles "and lastly we have Embry who is 15." I see the guy that had the amazing chocolate eyes he was around 6 foot 4, towering my 5' 8 stature. We both smile at each other. I feel heat flood my cheeks as I take the sight of him in. I put my hand out

"I'm Abigail." He reaches out to shake my hand. As our hands touch I feel a spark of electricity and I pull my hand back quickly.

Apparently, Embry felt it too.
