Our family congregated at the field that encompassed both our coven's territory and the land that belonged to the Quileute Pack. I found the closest rock to sit on, but of course that led to Cody and I having a 'King of the Mountain' contest.
But we quickly stopped when the Pack appeared. Not all of them were in human form though.
Both Cody and I were in awe. As I watched them, I counted at least twenty.
"Wow, there's so many of them." He whispered, hazel eyes scanning the clearing.
I turned my head towards Cody and smirked. "Now who's the dork?" He nudged me in return; nearly sending me toppling down if he hadn't grabbed my arm first. I looked ahead of us; checking if the adults had noticed, apparently they hadn't.
Edward chuckled, "We did."
I sighed and looked past them; dad was talking with a man who seemed to be representing the Pack, with mum beside him. 'So this is the Pack's Alpha, Sam? Or is this Sam's son?'
"He is Sam's son, Manuel," Wil confirmed, reading my thoughts.
"Oh, he looks much older than eighteen though." I said; pondering as I got up and walked over to where mum and dad were standing.
"And this is my daughter Daniella," Dad finished talking and Manuel turned to me, and held out his hand.
"Manuel," he said. A smile in his features.
"Hello." I said shaking his hand, then taking a step back. Cody came bounding up to us, putting his arm around my shoulders and shaking Manuel's hand with the other.
"Hi, I'm Cody."
Manuel smiled, "I know, your father and I were just speaking of you,"
I stopped paying any attention when I felt a gaze on me; which was pretty stupid when I think back to it now, because there would have had to have been at least sixteen more stares to deal with.
But I met their stare anyway; as soon as I did, I became frozen with shock. I couldn't tear my eyes away from sand coloured wolf; and I don't think he could either, his ears went back and he whined. I was vaguely aware that the chatter next to me had stopped, and a rumble had begun to run through the wolf pack.
"Not again," I heard Edward mutter from behind me.
"Danny," Cody said shaking my shoulders lightly. I looked away and breathed in, after what felt like ages.
How long had I been holding my breath anyway? When I started to smile, the wolf did too.
"Dan?" Cody repeated, looking at my face. "Hey, what's wrong with her?" He asked dad. The blue—ish coloured wolf growled slightly at him, and went to take a step forward.
"Seth," Manuel warned. "Nothing is wrong with her, Cody, she's just, well I think she might of just have, well there really isn't a word for it, but it's sort of like a bond." Cody shook my shoulders again, "Danny, stop smiling, 'cause it is seriously starting to creep me out."
I turned my face towards him, "Oh really 'big brother'?"
He rolled his eyes, "Dan," I had started smiling again,
"I can't help it."
Wilson started to chuckle. Dad looked to him with a confused expression, "Wil?" Wilson looked away from the pack and to dad, "I sort of feel sorry for the rest of them," he said, and then looked back at them, "every other pack member who has imprinted before has done so in their human forms." Wilson walked up to us and continued, "But Seth has found his mate in his animal form, so it's had quite an impact on the others. They're psychically connected, like you and your brother." Wilson finished looking to me.
"Well, I certainly didn't see this one coming," Alice chirped, though smiling all the while. "This is so cute!" She squealed again.
Seth had started to walk towards us with three other wolves flanking him, and an angry looking young woman walking beside him. "Leah," Dad said as he reached in to hug her, she pulled away. "This is not 'cute'," Leah said, giving Alice the foulest look she could muster, "My brother has been with Jade for nearly three years, and now he's going to have to dump her. All because of some five year old? That is not cute, leach."
Alice simply smiled wider; to the point that if a human had seen it they would have been just a little freaked out- that they would have known that she was something more.
I'd only known her for probably three minutes tops; but I already didn't like Leah, not at all.
So what do you think?
