A Twilight fanfiction novel - SheeWolf85

He kissed her lips. “I’m a Shifter. I can change into a wolf and kill Bloodsuckers. They’re the only
thing I kill, though, Ness. I exist to protect, not to harm. It’s why I’m so warm and why I can’t get
sick.”
She saw the truth in his eyes, but she didn’t want to believe it. It wasn’t even possible. His legends
were just myth; science fiction. They weren’t real. She took a step back, her heart already starting to
pound. “No you’re not.”
He reached out again to touch her, but she backed up again. “Ness, please. Don’t do this; don’t
freak out on me. You know me, baby. You know I’m not going to hurt you.”
“I also know that you’re not a Shifter because they don’t exist. Why did you bring me out here, Jake?
To scare me? Well, good job; you’ve succeeded. I’m scared. Now take me home.” She crossed her
arms over her chest and faced the trees.
“Do you need proof? I can give you—” A howl in the distance caught his attention. He turned toward
the sound and listened hard for a second. He heard Embry and Seth running, their paws crunching
the leaves beneath them. There was another sound; the faint rush of air that was a Bloodsucker on
the move. “Fuck.”
Renesmee looked up at Jacob. As conflicted as she was about what he’d told her, she couldn’t deny
the flutter of fear that something was wrong. He was upset, and it hurt her to see it. “What is it?”
she heard herself ask. She was pretty sure she didn’t want to hear the answer.
Jacob held up his hand. “Shh.” He listened harder to see if he could tell how far away they were.
His human ears weren’t as sensitive as his wolf ones. He didn’t want to shift unless absolutely
necessary; he needed to be able to tell Renesmee what to do. He estimated they were far enough
away that he could at least get her out of the woods. He turned and took her shoulders to push her
as gently as he could into the trees. “Go. Move.”
The command in his voice was unmistakable. She shivered with a mix of fear and desire and did as
he’d said. Before they made it ten steps, a white blur flashed twenty yards ahead of them. The wind
that followed almost choked him. He moved them quickly back to the meadow. A growl rose in his
chest at the thought of a Bloodsucker so close to his imprint.
Renesmee jumped at the sound that rumbled around her. She looked at Jacob with wide eyes; she’d
never heard a human make that noise. “What was that?” She wasn’t sure if she was talking about
the sound or the blur.
Jacob clenched his jaw tightly and tried to think of something to fix this. He shouldn’t have brought
her out. He should have known it would be too dangerous. He had just wanted to give her the proof
he knew she’d need. He listened again and tightened his arm around Renesmee. Embry and Seth
were much closer, but so was another Bloodsucker. “Fuck it,” he said. He pushed her against the
nearest tree. “Ness, listen to me very carefully. Stay right here. Don’t move.”
She nodded involuntarily and shivered again as she gave in to his authority. She pressed her back
harder against the tree. “Okay.”
As another gust of wind brought the putrid, decayed scent of the Bloodsuckers with it, Jacob turned
and let the wolf in him come out. Renesmee stared in shock as the man she loved shivered and
