part 10

"Ok sorry about that" Jacob berkata to me "Can anda phase back?" I found I could. I heard Jasper mutter "I wonder..." then he spoke louder with purpose "You phase when you're angry right?" Jacob nodded "She doesn't. I think she phases when one of anda are upset. She does have to be relaxed to phase back but so do all the manusia serigala in the room." They all found this interesting.

"Did phasing hurt this time?" Embry asked me "Not as much" I lied "Is Quil alright?" I asked hesitantly. I didn't want to sound heartless nor did I want to be nosy. They hesitated too "Yeah... a friend of his fell and membagi, split her chin. She'll need stitches but she'll be fine" Jacob said. My face must have shown my skepticism because he sighed and continued "Sometimes we as serigala latch on to people very strongly. When we umm.. imprint as we call it on girls they are our first priority. Quil imprinted on Claire and she's like his sister atau even daughter. Later, when she's older he'll cinta her in a different age. We don't age until we can stop phasing so Quil will stay the same and before long the age gap they have now will be gone." My eyes flew from Jacob to Renesmee and a few people nodded.

Do anda think I'll still age?" I asked Carlisle quietly. He seemed to know the most about these things. "Based on what I've seen I would think so. Though it will be difficult to tell for the selanjutnya few decades" he smiled.

Later I talked semi-privately with Jacob. "Is Leah upset with me for falling asleep on her?" I asked slowly "No. She just went to go check on her brother. She doesn't really like hanging out with vampires." I decided to ask one lebih pertanyaan for now "Do I have to run those ummm... 'patrols' anda were talking about?" He shook his head "No you're good. Don't worry about that. We'll try to make sure anda don't phase at all. Now that we know it's us making anda phase we should be able to avoid it."

The serigala seemed to think I was sticking around. They were like a family to each other and I was accepted as soon as I phased. They knew I wouldn't be as helpful as the others but it didn't seem to matter to them. I learned that the serigala protected all humans and that recently various events were enough to not only let them co-exist with animal drinking vampires, but also protect them. I was lebih at ease with the manusia serigala than the vampire but they were still deadly.

Jacob was usually easygoing. As the leader, (the "Alpha" as they called it) I got the feeling he would do what it took to protect his pack but he tried to do what was right. Leah was his detik in command. She could be pahit but they all seemed to think she was happier than she used to be. Quil and Embry both seemed about as much like normal teenage boys as they could be diberikan the circumstances. Seth, Leah's brother, seemed very well loved. Sort of everyone's kid brother. Even some of the vampire (Edward, Bella and Esme in particular) seemed to think of him that way.
