This chapter hasn't been edited, so all mistakes are mine. So we have come to the end of Fates Winding Road. With only the epi left, I'm sad to see this story end. Bella and Jared have had many ups and downs, and this chapter just proves it. So for all the excited readers out there, for a sneak peak at the epi I'm gonna do a lil contest thingy. I want to see what you guys think of this story... in ways of a banner or video. For any questions, don't be afraid to ask. Unlike Bella I wont bite...

Enjoy!

Before I became a wolf, I never wanted to settle down and get married. I got flipped a lot of shit because I wasn't a player, but I wasn't wanting to settle down.

But then, I phased, became a wolf. Nothing changed in the way I felt, I simply didn't want to settle down, or in the new case, imprint on someone.

But then Bella blew into my life. She was a huge pain in all our asses. It got to were we wanted to avoid her at all costs.

Then I imprinted. I couldn't hate her, or keep thinking I didn't want to imprint. From the moment I imprinted, I loved her with all that I am.

I thought that I wouldn't hurt a day in my life, but I was wrong.

The pleading look in her eyes killed me as she stood next to James. I couldn't keep looking at her as her words "Fine, I'll go" kept playing through my mind. I shook my head, trying and failing, to get those words gone. I turned around and walked away, knowing if I stayed looking at her, I wouldn't be able to let her go.

I ignored the words that were flying around. I ignored everything, except the emptiness I felt. My chest felt like it was caving in, ready to shatter.

I heard and felt the cracking of my bones as my body changed forms and pushed myself even more. I growled as a movie played through my mind.

"So you want to play?" James taunted me. Not the thing to do asswipe.

I circled around him, waiting for the opening that I could just end this. We circled for what seemed like ever, before he lost his concentration. I lept forward, landing on his chest. He fell to the ground, the sound echoing through the forest.

"You stupid fucking bitch." He wrapped his arms around me, squeezing me tight. I whimpered as I felt my paw begin to brake.

We rolled around, James straddling me. I swiped my paw up and across his face, liking the sound it made. I tried rolling us, pushing with all my might. James was bigger then me, always had been, and today he was proving so.

"Baby, I'm coming!" I yelled through my thoughts. I would kill the fucker if he hurt her again. I felt my muscles bunch tight and release as I pushed myself faster then I ever had before.

Other pack members joined me, all cheering their Alpha on as she got her hind legs up under James and shoved him off.

By the time we got to them, I quickly phased back. Bella was looking at James's mangled body, looking lost. I grabbed the lighter out of my shorts pocket and lit it, throwing it into the pile of vampire flesh. The venom caught, making a purlpish smoke dance towards the sky.

I wanted to fucking purr as Bella snuggled into my chest, making herself at home. This is where she belongs. I wrapped my arms around her, never wanting to let her go again.

We were in our own world until a giggle pulled us back to the present. The human girl Bella had saved, slid off of Jake's wolf-body, before she slowly limped over to Bella. Bella raised her eyebrow at me in question, and I remember that Jake was taking her to the elders. I mouthed happy weed to Bella, and a knowing look passed over her face. Yeah, we've all had that happy weed at some point to help with the pain.

"Enjoy yourself?" Bella asked.

"I did. Have you ever rode one?" She screeched. Bella laughed, shaking her head no. Oh baby, that's gonna change.

Jake came running out behind the tree in his cut off shorts.

"Have you two been introduced?" They stared at each other, all googly eyes and immediately knew why Bella had saved this human girl. Her brother would like basically died if she had.

"Jake, meet Jami. Jami, I would like you to meet my little brother Jake."

"I didn't know you had a brother!" Jami yelled. We all chuckled.

"Well we didn't know he had one either until Jake got snoopy." I laughed when Jake gave me a small glare.

"I was not snooping. I was cleaning out that damn room from going off on Sam." Jake replied before pulling Jami into his arms and walking off.

We all slowly followed behind him, heading in the direction of town. I pulled Bella into my side, secretly taking sniffs at her once in a while.

"Are you smelling me?" Bella giggled. Ok so not to secretly.

"What if I am?"

She didn't respond, she just wrapped her arms around me a little tighter. I almost lost her today, and those were not thoughts that I want floating in my head.

We got back to Bella and Jake's house and settled in. Jami got the proper care she needed, and then we settled in and told her about what she had witnessed today. Scary thing is, she laughed and said it was cool. She didn't seem scared, only excited. We spent the rest of the night talking before slowly drifting off to our own homes.

I felt a growl growing in my chest, threatening to escape. I knew there was a hardness in my eyes, but at this point in time, I didn't really care.

Two weeks. Two fucking weeks Bella has been like this. She closed herself off from not only me, but fucking everyone! She only ran patrols on her own, making Leah decide who ran what. She hasn't spoken to me, or her friend Jami.

I was starting to get really pissed. I was past the point of worry. When I knew she wasn't going to cut herself anymore, I stopped being worried and moved past it.

She wouldn't see anyone, and the only reason I'm looking at her now is because I fallowed her ass. She sat on the highest cliff in La Push. No humans even tried to come up here, only the pack.

"Bella." I growled. I sighed as she flinched away from the sound of my voice. "Baby, please talk to me."

Silence...

"Baby, your killing me." That got a reaction. Bella lifted her eyes to mine. My heart broke with the tears that are swimming around, threatening to fall.

"I'm a horrible person." She sobbed. I scratched my head, beyond confused.

"Your far from it." I spoke softly.

"How can you say that?" She screamed. "At one point I loved James. He was the only person I wanted. But it was so easy to kill him. How could I kill someone I love?"

Yeah, she said love, as in present. I almost bent over to pick my shattered heart from the cliffs ground. I was tired of always competing with James. He was fucking dead, she was my soul mate, but that didn't make her happy. She would always pick him it seemed.

I turned away, pretty damn sure my tail was tucked between my legs. I would have to talk to Leah about leaving the rez. I would not be in the same place with Bella, I'd rather kill myself.

"I don't ever want to be put in that position again. I couldn't kill you. It would be like killing myself." Bella whispered. I stopped, almost tripping over myself.

"You wouldn't ever be put in that position." I spoke back.

"I didn't think I would be put in that position with James, and I was. I killed him." She sniffled.

"Damn it Bella!" I yelled. "So you fucking killed him, big deal. Get over it! You can't have both of us, and I will not compete with a dead vampire. So fucking pick, or else I'll pick for you!" I lost control. I couldn't believe I just said that.

Before I could even blink, Bella was in my face. I felt the sharp sting as my cheek moved sideways.

"How dare you!" I saw her hand this time, and grabbed it before she could hit me.

"Hit me again, I fucking dare you." I saw the fire in her eyes, I knew the passion bubbling. I pulled her to me, kissing her roughly. I forced my tongue between her lips, and smirked as she whimpered against me.

I heard the sound of shredding before I could comprehend that we were stripping each other of our clothing. I growled when Bella stood in front of me naked, and the scent of her arousal hit my nostrils.

There was going to be nothing sweet about this. This is what we needed. I trailed my hands from her neck, down her back until I firmly grabbed her ass, lifting her up. Her sweet center rubbed against my hard dick and we both moaned.

Bella started moving her hips around me before using her arms around my neck to lift herself up. She aligned herself with me, and I fought the growl that wanted to escape. I, however, couldn't hold my hips back from jerking upwards. I easily slid into her, and the fucking world exploded. Everything in the world felt right.

I stumbled around until I found leverage on a nearby tree. Bella growled, her alpha wolf wanting to be in charge.

"I don't think so baby." I mumbled. Her head fell on my shoulder, both of us panting and ready to fall over the edge. I felt the muscles in my stomach tightening, followed by the tightening in my balls.

"So... close... harder." Bella moaned.

I pumped into her harder. Her pussy tightened around my dick and knew any second the world would shatter.

"Bite." I ground out.

I felt the pain and pleasure in my shoulder, before placing my mouth at Bella's neck and shoulder junction.

I sank my teeth into her, feeling my body release.

Coming down off our highs, we licked each others necks, sealing our bites with our scent. I slowly lowered Bella to the ground, whimpering when I fell out of her. That center was home, and I would die a happy man if never had to leave the warmth of it.

Bella giggled, pulling me back to earth.

"What's so funny?"

"I have cum running down my leg."

I grabbed Bella up, throwing her over my shoulder. She squealed when I smacker her bare ass, and retaliated by smacking my ass. I growled and took off running.

When the end of the cliff met my feet, I pulled Bella in front of me.

"I love you." I yelled as we started our free fall off the cliff.

"I love you more." Bella replied kissing me.

I knew as we were falling, that everything would be alright. No matter how far we fell in life, we would hang on to each other and never let go.
