them. She is related with Alice!” He shouted coldly. His voice would have made many humans flinch and I flinched too, in spite of Alice’s hold on me.

I stopped. I am related to Alice? Alice let go my hand and I turned back to look at the Cullens’ who were standing still. Eustace turned to me.

“Remember Lisa… There’ll be a day when you’ll die like the rest of your family. There’ll be revenge” He warned with the same fierce tone. He glared at me and the Cullens for a long time and walked away from our view.

“What?....” I trailed off “What is going on? Who is he and what am I to him?” I demanded the Cullens.

“Lisa, we’ll explain” Said Alice.

“What are you all?” I asked them. Alice tried to shush me but I yelled “What are you!”

“She has to know” Jasper announced “She has the right to know”

Alice turned to me and sighed.

And I waited….

“We’re vampires” She declared.

Chapter Two

The truth is hiding in your eyes
And it's hanging on your tongue,
Just boiling in my blood.
But, you think that I can't see...
"Decode" - Paramore

Lisa's POV

They’re lying. You’re dreaming. Wake up!

I kept chanting mentally as Emmet drove his jeep. Alice, Rosalie and Jasper sat in the car next to me, silently with pin-drop silence.

How would you normally react if a group of people tell you that they vampires? And on the top of it all, the Cullens were now taking me to their house to explain it more clearly.

Even though on the outside I was all sweating and fearful, on the inside… I was laughing as much as I can in disbelief.

Vampires, really? They surely don’t exist. I think.

This was all weird; weird, because I was getting forced to believe these horrible truths after the first day at school, when I merely knew the Cullens.

The car came to a stop before a Mansion. Wow! I thought, when I took a look at its size. Of course, I heard that Carlisle Cullen was a doctor so they must be rich.

“Come in!” I almost jumped when I heard the chirpy voice of Alice, “We’re not going to bite you, Lisa”

Jasper and Emmet chuckled. Rosalie, however, didn’t look like she enjoyed the joke.

They led me inside. I couldn’t help but let my mouth fall slightly open at their huge interior. However, I closed my mouth soon, to avoid embarrassment.

“Hello Lisa” Mrs. Esme Cullen greeted me, smiling warmly. The rest of the Cullens soon assembled in the living room and Dr. Carlisle began his speech.

“Well, Lisa… As we’ve already told you about” He cleared his throat, “who we are. We would also like to explain about how… Eustace is connected to us and… you”

I hesitated to take it all in, but then I nodded for him to continue.

“Eustace had a mate called Paris. They both fed on humans and-“ Dr. Carlisle revealed and I gasped. Did these people really suck peoples’ lives out? Like how vampires do?

Could this be real?

“And they just lived like that for many years” Dr. Carlisle continued, “Until one day, when Eustace’s mate, Paris never came back for three days after hunting” He sighed.

“Eustace searched for her; Searched Paris for a whole week only to find out that she was dead. After that, he became a loner and a wilder person that he’d ever been, making revenge a part of his life; and till now, it still is”

The Cullens held an awkward look on their faces and some of their eyes were on me. I had a very strong urge to cover my face with my hair but that would make the situation even more awkward.

“His life became even harder when he knew what the reason was for his mate’s death. There was this group of people, who gained some… mental powers within themselves. They-“I cut him, as I realized that these horrible statements were off from the limits.

“So now wizards are in your story too? What’s next? Fairies, mermaids and werewolves?” I asked and noticed that the Cullens stiffened at the last word, “You all are crazy! I can’t even believe that I let you to speak this instant!” I screamed.

I took a step towards the door. Dr. Carlisle stopped me by speaking.

“Lisa, we all know that you don’t remember your past” He revealed. I gasped.

How did he…?

“We know everything” Edward spoke, “The true you is in our hands. You’re in danger, Lisa. We’re protecting you from danger!”

“What am I?” I brought myself to ask, feeling annoyed.

“You belong to that group of people, who killed Eustace’s mate, Paris! That group of people is the real Brandons; and you are one. That’s why Eustace is after you!” This time it was Alice, who spoke. So now, she’s gone nuts. I thought her mind had enough stability than the rest of her family did.

But no, I was wrong. After all, she belonged to the Cullens. The crazy, pale ones, who proclaimed to themselves that they were some freaky monsters.

“Lisa, you need to understand-“ I cut off Alice by letting out an “Ugh!” in annoyance, as I knew that the Cullens weren’t giving up.

I headed out to the door and just as when I was about to open the knob, I heard a wolf’s howl. It sounded as a call. I gasped.

What. In. The. World?

Was it really a wolf? Did they even exist in Forks? And since when? Questions kept running in my mind as I stared at the Cullens, blankly.

“Lisa, we could explain… “ Dr. Carlisle trailed off.

“Werewolves do exist; and we’re hearing them right now” Rosalie said as she looked out of the window and at the forest. The word ‘werewolves’ came out of her mouth in such disgust that it sounded very unpleasant, “Stupid dogs! They’re always after us” She muttered.

“Rosalie” Dr. Carlisle warned her and turned to me, “We really wish that we could get things easy on you, Lisa. We’re trying to do that. You just need to let us do that by believing”

Believing? In them?

That was it. I started breathing so hard. I felt like I had no way to escape out of this by running somewhere far away. Even if I did, the Cullens would track me down. I didn’t know what to do.

Unable to take it all in, I fainted. Blackness consumed me.

Chapter Three

You're the remedy I'm searching hard to find,
To fix the puzzle that I see inside!
Painting all my dreams the color of your smile,
When I find you It'll be alright.
"I gotta find you" - Jonas Brothers (Joe Jonas)

Seth’s POV

Patrolling remained the same. Nothing interesting, really.

The members of our pack’s minds were also the same. All of them thought about their imprints and how badly they wished to see them right now, instead of getting stuck in this lonely, abandoned forest.

I sighed. Even though not all of the wolves imprinted, I couldn’t stop thinking about how imprinting would really feel; to feel the love’s intensity passing down through my body every time I see my imprint. Every thing about imprinting seemed interesting and created the urge in me to feel it for myself.

“Don’t worry, dude. You’ll imprint soon”

“Ah! We all know that someone is waiting for you, somewhere”

“Too bad, that fate can play with our lives!”

I heard the pack thinking. They were all right. Imprinting and fate. These were the major parts of being a shape-shifter.

I pressed my paws on the ground, here and there, without knowing what to do.

That was when we heard a howl. It was a call. It was Sam. The pack became alert and then we heard a thought.

“Sam just smelt a human in the Cullens Mansion. The Cullens are up to something bad, we need to save the poor human!”

The Cullens are up to something? No, they aren’t that bad. The Cullens never hunted humans or harm them.

But still, why should they have a human in their house?

“Maybe, Carlisle knows the human. We all know that they don’t hurt humans”

I thought to them. The boys huffed, mentally, not taking my statement for a proper answer.

“Jeez, Seth!”

Jared thought, “When in the world did you become a fan of the Cullens? Man, our job is to protect people from those leeches! Now, we have a reason to fight for! Why the hell do you have to wait?”

This time, everyone was on Jared’s side. I had nothing to say. My pack members were wrong. All they wanted was an opportunity to fight against the Cullens. But they couldn’t fight because the Cullens never violated the Treaty.

Jared, Paul and Jacob started to run first and then others joined them. Embry stayed back.

“Dude, you coming?”

He thought.

“Sorry, No”

“As long as you don’t mind getting scolded by Sam, then it’s alright”

Embry thought to me and ran away in an inhumanly speed.

I didn’t care about Sam scolding me for what I had done and I was very aware that he could still hear my thoughts.

God knows what will happen with the Cullens as my pack had a goal to fight against them… The Cullens deserved to be left in peace. After all, we didn’t smell any human blood. It was just the sweet aura of the nature.

My furry body headed to the East, where La Push was; where my home was. I passed by the trees in a blur, leaving all the problems behind.

But, I actually felt a feeling deep down inside; a pull, which almost took me to the
