Jacob shook his head again and reached out to take her hand. “No, it’s not. They’re just going to<br />

take some time to get used to, that’s all.”<br />

Renesmee squeezed his hand and stepped forward to press herself against him. He held her tightly<br />

and kissed her head. She sniffled and nodded against his chest.<br />

“I know.” She pulled back enough to look up at him. “Did you ever read scary stories when you were<br />

little?” He nodded. “I remember one in particular I read was about a boy who woke up one day and<br />

he wasn’t the same person. It described him looking in the mirror for the first time and panicking<br />

because he wasn’t the same. That’s how I feel. I know what you’re saying, Jake, but I’m still<br />

scared.”<br />

He nodded again and touched her chin as he leaned down to kiss her lips. “I know you’re scared,<br />

Ness. We’ll get through this together, though, okay?”<br />

She took another deep breath. “Okay.”<br />

He took her hand again and lifted it to kiss her knuckles. “Let’s go hunting.”<br />

She nodded and followed him out the door. “How will you tell the pack what’s going on?” It felt<br />

weird to refer to Jacob’s friends as “the pack.”<br />

“They can hear me when I’m a wolf. Kind of a telepathy thing.” He led her a few paces into the<br />

trees.<br />

“So you’ll . . . shift and tell them?”<br />

“Yep. After I let them know what’s happened, I want you to get on my back and hold on tight.”<br />

She smiled. “Okay.”<br />

He kissed her and took a few steps back to take off his shorts. She wasn’t sure why she felt she<br />

needed to avert her eyes, but she stared at her feet until she heard a distinct tearing sound. She<br />

shivered and looked up to see her giant, russet wolf standing before her. She shivered again as an<br />

unexpected twinge of fear rose so quickly and powerfully in her chest she nearly ran. Her heart<br />

pounded so hard it hurt. She forced herself to stand exactly where she was as she looked him over.<br />

Jacob wished he had the ability to speak as a wolf in a way Renesmee would understand. It was<br />

obvious she was afraid, and he wanted to reassure her. He lightly nudged her arm. She took a deep<br />

breath and reached up to touch his muzzle. As she explored the texture of his fur between her<br />

fingers, Jacob gave Quil the update and a warning to stay far away from both Renesmee and him as<br />

she hunted.<br />

I have to say it, Jake: That’s fucking weird.<br />

Jacob growled. You’d feel differently if it were Claire.<br />

The pained surprise in the other Shifter’s thoughts was harsh. I get it, dude. Leave her out of this.<br />

Just give the others the message.<br />
