She walked to her dresser where it had been standing at first and looked around for anything out of<br />

place. Sitting on top was her silver chain from the dog tags that had gone missing. She smiled and<br />

almost picked it up when she noticed the tags were still missing. On the chain instead was the front<br />

half of a silver locket with the letter H in fancy script. She put her hand down, afraid to touch it. She<br />

was almost certain the creature had planted it there and had probably expected her to pick it up.<br />

Instead of falling into whatever trap it might have set, she walked away and looked around the rest<br />

of the room.<br />

Her head started to spin with fatigue as she stood in the middle of the carpet. She knew she should<br />

sleep, but she was so afraid to. Instead, she walked to the window. The trees outside had an eerie<br />

glow from the moonlight, and she shivered again. Her thoughts went to Jacob. Was he out there,<br />

fighting the Bloodsucker she’d seen? Did he even know it was nearby?<br />

She sighed and made sure the window was locked before finally going back to the bed. She yawned<br />

and scooped up the monkey before she laid down. “You need a name,” she said as she held the<br />

monkey in front of her. Its huge eyes seemed to smile at her. She kissed its head. “Maybe<br />

Bananas? No, too cliché.” She quirked her lips. “Jacob’s middle name is Ephraim; maybe that’s<br />

what I’ll call you. It seems old-fashioned, but I think I like it.” She kissed it again. “Yes, I think I will.<br />

Goodnight, Ephraim.” She hugged it tightly and pulled the covers up to her chin. She closed her<br />

eyes and tried to ignore the silence in the room that caused her ears to ring.<br />

Jacob returned to Renesmee’s house just before dawn. It took longer than he had hoped, but finally<br />

they had come up with a plan that everyone could work around. He was more than happy to stand<br />

watch on Renesmee’s end of the forest. He sniffed around the trees and laid down when nothing<br />

seemed out of place. He listened as she got up to start her day. She seemed tense as she ate<br />

breakfast. She didn’t make eye contact with either her aunt or her uncle as she told them she’d be<br />

in her room for the day. He heard her door shut and the buttons on her phone beep. As tuned as his<br />

ears were, he couldn’t make out any noises on the other end of the line.<br />

“Hi, Billy. Is Jacob there?”<br />

His ears perked up and his heart skipped a beat. He had clothes with him just for this purpose; he<br />

really hoped she was ready to talk to him again.<br />

She sniffled. “I just really need to speak with him. Could you ask him to come see me?”<br />

He didn’t wait to hear more. He shifted to his human form and pulled on his pants before sprinting<br />

around the house.<br />

Renesmee ended her call and sighed. No matter how much she wanted to deny that Jacob’s fantasy<br />

world existed, she just couldn’t anymore. It was real, and the night before was only more terrifying<br />

proof of it. Her arm still tingled where the Bloodsucker had touched her, but she wasn’t sure if it was<br />

in her mind. She didn’t know what to do next; how to keep them away from her. She hoped Jacob<br />

got the message soon and came to see her. She closed her eyes and prayed she wasn’t too late;<br />

what if he’d given up on her?<br />

A knock on the door downstairs startled her. Her stomach fluttered with hope that it was Jacob. She<br />

made it halfway down the steps before Jasper opened the door.<br />
