seemed to burst out of his own skin. Shreds of clothing and tufts of fur floated to the ground. In his<br />

place stood the same russet wolf she’d seen several times. Her wolf. Her eyes watered. He wasn’t<br />

lying. It was all true.<br />

Before she had time to process how she really felt about the situation, the Jacob-wolf growled loudly<br />

and flattened his ears against his head. He seemed to be watching something in the trees. She<br />

jumped and gasped as another white blur flickered across the meadow. The wolf launched after it,<br />

kicking up dirt and leaves in his wake. Renesmee closed her eyes and raised her arms to shield her<br />

face from the debris. There was a terrible shriek and a loud crack followed by a muted whimper.<br />

She stood up straighter, hoping to see something and make sure Jacob was okay. A white rock flew<br />

out of the trees and landed ten feet from her. She put her hand on the tree to make sure she didn’t<br />

move too far away and leaned forward. Another shiver ran through her when she identified the<br />

object. One finger was missing, but it was undoubtedly a pale human hand. She covered her mouth<br />

to keep from screaming or throwing up. She was just beginning to realize what the blur had been.<br />

How fucking positive are you that they had nothing to do with him? Jacob demanded as he gathered<br />

the pieces of the Bloodsucker he’d destroyed. Embry and Seth were doing the same.<br />

They were too sloppy, Jake, Seth thought. If they were with Cai—<br />

Don’t say that name. Don’t think it. Jacob refused to hear it.<br />

If they were with him, they would have been better at hiding themselves. They probably would have<br />

been better trained, too; harder to catch.<br />

Seth had a point. Still, Jacob didn’t want to take any chances. We’re doubling patrols until this<br />

fucker is found. I’m sorry, guys, but this means you two are going to be doing most of the work. Quil<br />

has to stay with Claire, and I have to stay with Renesmee if she’ll let me.<br />

Couldn’t you just put the girls together in a safe place somewhere? Embry asked. Kill two birds with<br />

one stone?<br />

If Ness will still look at me after this, I’ll talk to her about it.<br />

He was still missing one of the creature’s hands. He sniffed around and cursed when he realized it<br />

had gone into the meadow. He’d been watching Renesmee out of the corner of his eye as he did<br />

what he had to do. She sat on the ground with her back against the tree he’d put her against and<br />

her knees pulled up tight against her chest. It was obvious from the way she shivered and the<br />

sounds she made that she was crying. With a heavy sigh, he walked out to retrieve the missing body<br />

part. On the way, he found a finger. He picked it up and tossed it as best as he could toward the<br />

pile. He kept his eyes on her and moved slowly toward the scent of the hand.<br />

Renesmee looked up when she heard footsteps. She gasped and tried to push herself back further<br />

when she saw the wolf walking toward her. A small part of her was so relieved to see that he was<br />

okay, but another, much larger part was terrified. Her hands gripped the fabric of her pants tighter<br />

the closer he got. His eyes, so familiar in a way she finally understood, burned into her. He finally<br />

stopped ten yards away and sniffed the ground. She watched as he picked up the hand between his<br />

teeth and turned to carry it back the way he’d come. She wasn’t sure if she was relieved or<br />

disappointed that he wasn’t back for good.<br />

Would one of you grab some clothes for me? Jacob asked as he dropped the hand on the pile.<br />
