The Call Of The Wicked, on-hold

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT | NEW MOON ?

The bears fierce gaze blinded in one eye, a milky white staring back at the wolf with one deep amber glazed eye. Emmett swung up from a branch, crouching "Come of Stef, show me what a hybrid can do" Bears one of Emmett's most favorite prey to hunt down. His comment was meant with a deep grutal growl. The atmosphere was intense, both circling each other. Stefan wasted no time, he launched forward his body colidng with the bear. Their roars filled the night breeze, the scent of blood drenched the wind. Stefan fangs were taring into the flesh of the creature, attempting to give it a quick death.

The beat fought back, its talon sharp claws slammed against the wolf, trying to break the surface of the skin to no avail. It's snarl was acknowledging it's own defeat as the wolf's fangs pierced the flesh of his neck and with one swift movement, the neck cracked loudly. The bear slumped to the ground, blood oozing from several wounds. His tongue lapped at the blood, a pleasing look in the eyes glistened as his mouth tore into the belly. In the pit of the gut, blood swelled and he inhaled it. Swallowing mouthfuls of blood and the flesh of the bear, his body rigid as his carnal desires took over. His humanity shifting away mid-way through his blood-craved rage surging through him.

Emmett looked abnormally daunting in the face "Way more gore than I needed" Emmett launched off to look for a deer. It wasn't long before the wolf scented fresh blood of a deer, but very content with the bear. His mind was resurfacing as he heard the crunches of feet behind him. His large head angled , blood staining his fur from the jaw to his chest and legs. The flowery scent of Alice Cullen flared in his nostrils, followed by the woodsy pine scent of Jasper Hale coming with it.

"Fuck Stefan" Jasper Texan accent slid off his tongue, his comment was met by a grutal laugh rumbling in Stefan's chest. His ears swiveled, listening to the sound of feet scurrying in the forest when Emmett appeared once more wiping his mouth clean of blood. "I don't think I ever want to hear bones crunching ever again" Emmett shook his head, the four of them more amused than ever.

The wolf disappeared for a few minutes, sounds of bones snapping and taking shape made the vampires tense. Stefan appeared dressed in denim jeans, a black T-shirt and leather jacket, his feet being tugged into black boots. The vampires stared at him confused "you stashing clothes" Alice asked him suspiciously with a raised eyebrow. Stefan smiled weakly "Rosalie hide a few of my clothes on bags in several trees since I hunt in your territory" He said as his house was within the territory, roughly a fifteen minute drive.

"You should try it one time, never know when you stain your clothes" Stefan saw Emmett smirk "your clothes just rip off" making Stefan chuckle "Yeah Rose likes that kind of thing" He stated adjusting his jacket angling his attention to return to the Cullen residence where his girlfriend and child were located. Stefan headed off on foot back to the residence, he could tell that Edward returned when he heard the hushed voices between him and Carlisle. He clicked his tongue annoyed with Edward, channelling his inner Charlie Swan as he stepped into the house seeing them look up towards him.

"Carlisle" Stefan glared at Edward before walking around them and downstairs where Rosalie and Cora was. The voices carried with Carlisle speaking last "You brought it on yourself, I don't say it around Bella but Edward you need to find a way to repair an already broken friendship with Stefan, you really hurt his sister" His words were gentle and it made Stefan mentally scuff at the idea. The hybrid didn't plan to mend anything, he planned only keep a acquaintance with Edward for Bella's sake. Stefan greeted Rosalie with a kiss to the cheek, both staring down at Cora with a kindred look.

The hues of the morning light pierced through the windows at daylight. The warmth of the sun spreading over Stefan's back as he slumped in a chair attempting to sleep though his overactive brain hasn't allowed it since his transition. His green gaze never left Cora and Rosalie. Both of them hadn't left the room except to occasionally feed, Athena and Carlisle occasionally checked on her vitals. Stefan knew his father and sister were coming over to officially meet Cora once the morning settled.

It didn't take long before nine in the morning of the twenty-third that Charlie and Bella were on the way. A few of the residents left to avoid that two humans were arriving. That included Jasper, Alice, and Emmett. Edward was on the list of heading out before Charlie arrived to avoid the man for now. Stefan himself nearly attacked the vampire when Bella called him late last night talking about being engaged to the bastard.

Jasper and Emmett tackled Stefan before he could kill the bastard.

The thought made him chuckle hearing the sound of an engine parking in the driveway. The sound of feet up the steps and Carlisle's greeting voice. He smelt the musky scent of his father twindle in the morning breeze. The clouds clustered the morning sky by the time they arrived. He heard the descending steps and he got to his face pulling his father into his warm embrace "Hey dad, Bells" Stefan even reached out to his little sister to ease her tension. "Oh" He heard Charlie choke up when he stared down at Cora.

"Is this her?" He asked the stupid question, laughing softly seeing Stefan's face. Charlie reached into the medical NICU chamber set up by Athena, his hands gloved just encase. His eyes filled with joy, tears filling the depths of his eyes "Heck, your mom is going to kill me for knowing first" He chuckled looking over to Rose, catching everyone off guard "You did good, she looked healthy" he whispered as Rosalie eyes widened in shock and filled with happiness. Rosalie seemed to melt in his arms, hugging him as humanly possible.

"When's the wedding" Charlie joked while Bella eyed Cora, even gloving up touching her niece with an adoring look to her brown eyes. Rosalie spared a glance at Stefan as they hadn't talked about it. "I'll let you know when me and Rosalie are ready for that" he said not revealing much more. Stefan wasn't ready to propose yet though he had an idea of when. The glimmer in his eyes gave Rosalie this hope, she turned to Charlie "You'll be first to know"

"Awesome, now it's Grandpa Charlie time" Charlie grinned ear to ear focusing on Cora once more. The Swan family content for once, a joyous occasion settled their nerves as Cora brought this new light to all three of them, "Stefan be sure to call Renee" His father whispered cooing at baby, very prideful of knowing first.

"Yeah I know"
