Jacob stood up and took a step back. He pressed himself against the wall to make sure he had<br />

himself under control. He had known she’d be different. He had expected the worst. But when she<br />

opened her eyes, he couldn’t see Renesmee in them. They were bright, vibrant orange with a dark<br />

mahogany ring around the edges. They were not Renesmee’s eyes.<br />

Renesmee stared at Jacob, confused. She didn’t know what had just happened. One moment she<br />

was so happy to see him and the next she truly thought she might bite him. Even still, the sound and<br />

scent of his blood was overpowering. She wanted it, but she didn’t understand why. She was<br />

relieved when he moved away and she could no longer reach him.<br />

“Jake?” She said softly. She looked him over and saw a scar on his arm that she’d never noticed<br />

before. She cocked her head to the side. It was a dark, jagged line about an inch long in the middle<br />

of his forearm. As she wondered where it had come from, she also began to notice other things like<br />

each individual hair on his arm and the lines between his thumb and forefinger. Things she’d never<br />

paid attention to before and wouldn’t have been able to pick out from across the room. Even a room<br />

as small as Jacob’s.<br />

Suddenly everything became clear to her. A pit of fear opened in her stomach as she realized that<br />

she hadn’t been dreaming. Everything had really happened. The Bloodsucker, the injection, the pain<br />

. . . everything. She closed her eyes and remembered what Caius had said. When he sees you<br />

again, you'll either be dead or immortal. It'll be interesting to see if he or his puppies kill you. If she<br />

wasn’t dead, then the serum had worked. She was Jacob’s enemy. She was a monster. The sound<br />

of Caius’ screams replayed in her mind along with the scene from the meadow when Jacob had first<br />

shifted to protect her. There was no doubt in her mind that he had torn Caius to pieces. Was he<br />

going to do that to her now? She looked up at him. He still stood against the wall taking even<br />

breaths. Her eyes burned as they filled with tears.<br />

Jacob watched her closely to see what she would do next. He was surprised when she started to cry<br />

and turned her body to face the wall. It was obvious that she wasn’t going to attack him, and it made<br />

him relax. He took a deep breath and sat on his knees on the bed. He put his hand on her shoulder.<br />

She pulled away from him with a sob, and his heart broke again.<br />

“Ness . . .”<br />

“Don’t call me that,” she said. She sniffled. She couldn’t bear to hear his nickname for her when all<br />

it reminded her of was what could have happened if she hadn’t been so selfish and stupid.<br />

“Why not?” he demanded.<br />

She didn’t dare look at him. She had been so horrible when all he’d done was save her life. She felt<br />

nauseated at the thought that he was going to have to end it now. “Because I’m not Ness. Not<br />

anymore. I don’t know what I am.”<br />

Jacob sighed and laid down behind her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her back<br />

against him, ignoring her protests. He kissed the top of her head. She smelled mostly the same, she<br />

knew who he was, and she hadn’t gone after his blood yet.<br />

“You’re still my Ness,” he said softly.<br />

She shook her head but didn’t say anything else. She allowed him to hold her, telling herself that<br />

she should enjoy it while she could. After a moment, she turned around slowly. He loosened his<br />
