〃I wish you wouldn't call them that。〃 

He laughed。 〃Whatever。 The Cullens; then?〃 

〃Just… just Edward。〃 I pulled one arm surreptitiously around my torso。 

Jacob looked surprised—unpleasantly so。 〃I thought those were just stories。 I've heard legends about 
vampires who could do… extra stuff; but I thought that was just a myth。〃 

〃Is anything just a myth anymore?〃 I asked him wryly。 

He scowled。 〃Guess not。 Okay; we're going to meet Sam and the others at the place we go to ride our 
bikes。〃 

I started the truck and headed back up the road。 

〃So did you just turn into a wolf now; to talk to Sam?〃 I asked; curious。 

Jacob nodded; seeming embarrassed。 〃I kept it real short—I tried not to think about you so they 
wouldn't know what was going on。 I was afraid Sam would tell me I couldn't bring you。〃 

〃That wouldn't have stopped me。〃 I couldn't get rid of my perception of Sam as the bad guy。 My teeth 
clenched together whenever I heard his name。 

〃Well; it would have stopped me;〃 Jacob said; morose now。 〃Remember how I couldn't finish my 
sentences last night? How I couldn't just tell you the whole story?〃 

〃Yeah。 You looked like you were choking on something。〃 

He chuckled darkly。 〃Close enough。 Sam told me I couldn't tell you。 He's… the head of the pack; you 
know。 He's the Alpha。 When he tells us to do something; or not to do something—when he really means 
it; well; we can't just ignore him。〃 

〃Weird;〃 I muttered。 

〃Very;〃 he agreed。 〃It's kind of a wolf thing。〃 

〃Huh〃 was the best response I could think of。 

〃Yeah; there's a load of stuff like that—wolf things。 I'm still learning。 I can't imagine what it was like for 
Sam; trying to deal with this alone。 It sucks bad enough to go through it with a whole pack for support。〃 

〃Sam was alone?〃 

〃Yeah。〃 Jacob's voice lowered。 〃When I… changed; it was the most… horrible; the most terrifying 
thing I've ever been through—worse than anything I could have imagined。 But I wasn't alone—there 
were the voices there; in my head; telling me what had happened and what I had to do。 That kept me 
from losing my mind; I think。 But Sam…〃 He shook his head。 〃Sam had no help。〃 

This was going to take some adjusting。 When Jacob explained it like that; it was hard not to feel 
passion for Sam。 I had to keep reminding myself that there was no reason to hate him anymore。 

〃Will they be angry that I'm with you?〃 I asked。 

He made a face。 〃Probably。〃 

〃Maybe I shouldn't—〃 

〃No; it's okay;〃 he assured me。 〃You know a ton of things that can help us。 It's not like you're just some 
ignorant human。 You're like a… I don't know; spy or something。 You've been behind enemy lines。〃 

I frowned to myself。 Was that what Jacob would want from me? Insider information to help them destroy 
their enemies? I wasn't a spy; though。 I hadn't been collecting that kind of information。 Already; his words 
made me feel like a traitor。 

But I wanted him to stop Victoria; didn't I? 

No。 

I did want Victoria to be stopped; preferably before she tortured me to death or ran into Charlie or killed 
another stranger。 I just didn't want Jacob to be the one to stop her; or rather to try。 I didn't want Jacob 
within a hundred miles of her。 

〃Like the stuff about the mindreading bloodsucker;〃 he continued; oblivious to my reverie。 〃That's the 
kind of thing we need to know about。 That really sucks that those stories are true。 It makes everything 
more plicated。 Hey; do you think this Victoria can do anything special?〃 

〃I don't think so;〃 I hesitated; and then sighed。 〃He would have mentioned it。〃 

〃He? Oh; you mean Edward—oops; sorry。 I forgot。 You don't like to say his name。 Or hear it。〃 

I squeezed my midsection; trying to ignore the throbbing around the edges of my chest。 〃Not really; no。〃 

〃Sorry。〃 

〃How do you know me so well; Jacob? Sometimes it's like you can read my mind。〃 

〃Naw。 I just pay attention。〃 

We were on the little dirt road where Jacob had first taught me to ride the motorcycle。 

〃This good?〃 I asked。 

〃Sure; sure。〃 

I pulled over and cut the engine。 

〃You're still pretty unhappy; aren't you?〃 he murmured。 

I nodded; staring unseeingly into the gloomy forest。 

〃Did you ever think… that maybe… you're better off?〃 

I inhaled slowly; and then let my breath out。 〃No。〃 

〃'Cause he wasn't the best—〃 

〃Please; Jacob;〃 I interrupted; begging in a whisper。 〃Could we please not talk about this? I can't stand 
it。〃 

〃Okay。〃 He took a deep breath。 〃I'm sorry I said anything。〃 

〃Don't feel bad。 If things were different; it would be nice to finally be able to talk to someone about it。〃 

He nodded。 〃Yeah; I had a hard time keeping a secret from you for two weeks。 It must be hell to not be 
able to talk to anyone。〃 

〃Hell;〃 I agreed。 

Jacob sucked in a sharp breath。 〃They're here。 Let's go。〃 

〃Are you sure?〃 I asked while he popped his door open。 〃Maybe I shouldn't be here。〃 

〃They'll deal with it;〃 he said; and then he grinned。 〃Who's afraid of the big; bad wolf?〃 

〃Ha ha;〃 I said。 But I got out of the truck; hurrying around the front end to stand close beside Jacob。 I 
remembered only too clearly the giant monsters in the meadow。 My hands were trembling like Jacob's 
had been before; but with fear rather than rage。 

Jake took my hand and squeezed it。 〃Here we go。〃 

14。 FAMILY 




I COWERED INTO JACOB'S SIDE; MY EYES SCANNING the forest for the other werewolves。 
When they appeared; striding out from between the trees; they weren't what I was expecting。 I'd gotten 
the image of the wolves stuck in my head。 These were just four really big halfnaked boys。 

Again; they reminded me of brothers; quadruplets。 Something about the way they moved almost in 
synchronization to stand across the road from us; the way they all had the same long; round muscles 
under the same redbrown skin; the same cropped black hair; and the way their expressions altered at 
exactly the same moment。 

They started out curious and cautious。 When they saw me there; halfhidden beside Jacob; they all 
became furious in the same second。
