A Wolf's Promise (A Jacob Black Love Story)

"Bella," Jacob's voice rose in distress as I turned to walk away. "Everything, I've done, I've done for you!"

Anger pulled me back towards him. "For me? Killing Jasper was for me?"

"Bella!" Jacob yelled exasperated and pulling his hand through his cropped hair. "He tried to kill you!"

Last Night

Stumbling through the trees I finally found a place to sit. I pulled off my sweater and wrapped it round my bloody arm. I had to face it - I was lost. Suddenly I heard a crunching in the leaves behind me. "Edward," I called out but no-one answered. I caught sight of red irises, flashing infront, behind, all around me. My heart stopped beating. The Volturi had come. Suddenly a bush rustled and a snarling russet-colored wolf jumped out followed by another smaller grey one. I recognised them immediately.

"Jacob," I called. "Paul!" The red wolf stopped by my side. I'd forgotten I was on their territory. He blinked his great round eyes at me and leapt into battle. The two of them outnumbered the fair haired imposter and as Paul dragged the remains away in his teeth Jacob reformed back into human form. He wore nothing but jeans and his bare chest shone a deep brown in the moonlight. I didn't care, I leapt forward and hugged him.

"Hey, hey, calm down Bells!" He laughed, his white teeth gleaming. "Jeez, what happened to your arm?"
"You know, got lost, tripped on a root..."
"Typical Bella," Jacob smiled. I loved it when he smiled. He had such a light happy smile. I leaned forward and kissed him, on the lips.

He seemed surprised but in no way he wanted to stop. He wrapped his arms around me in a vice-like grip and pulled me closer. I opened my eyes to see him but his were closed. Finally, I broke away gasping. He looked at me with searching eyes.

"So," I said, trying to change the subject. "Who'd'ya get? Someone you know?"
"Yes actually," He seemed surprised that I was taking an intrest. "Spotted him there, trying to kill you. The way he watched you, I couldn't stop myself."
"Him?" I asked.
"Yep, it was a guy. Well not a real guy, not... alive,"
"Ok ,okay! Who was it already?" I was getting impatient.
"I believe you know him as, Jasper?"

My heart froze there.
"No... but he's, he's Rosalie's brother... and Alice's..." I choked. Then I fainted.
