Only at Night Chapter 30 - A Place in Hell
"Bullshit, Whitlock. You might be able to fool them, but I see right through your shit. You aren't going out there without me." He stared me down for a full minute before I sighed and said, "Fine."
Peter shot me a look and I raised my eyebrows to him, he nodded and we all headed out. We drove past the reservation and around as far back as we could before parking the SUV off on a dirt road, obscured from what little traffic was out there. We had to hike in from the forest that surrounded the reservation.
We had been hunting together for years and were all very comfortable with the silence and knew how to manage through the thick vegetation without making any noise. James fit in well, he was really good at spotting things in the dark. Several times he alerted us to a herd of deer or some other animal that would have scampered loudly if startled. We heard a pack of wolves howling in the distance and I was glad to be armed no matter what predator we ran into, be it Jacob or the furry variety.
After a few hours of trudging through forest and undeveloped parts of the reservation we saw a dilapidated old shack and we all exchanged a look. We sat quietly for thirty minutes looking for any sign of movement, sound, but nothing. We slowly and silently surrounded the shack looking in through windows, long broken and poorly boarded over. It was dark and overrun with cobwebs and dust. Peter went in first, followed by Preston, I stood guard in the front and James at the rear. Wade took up position right outside the front door.

Chapter 29
"'Figure out where you are yet Bella?'
Gasp. The voice came from somewhere behind me. He had been watching me, sitting there silently watching me. How long had he been there? I knew I had been in and out of it, coming to and passing out again countless times, had he sat and watched all of it?
Bastard.
Still, he was lurking, watching, stalking. He sat where I couldn't see him and he observed. He had not moved, I never even heard him breathing. OH God, I was naked, he was here. He was watching me laying here, naked. The nausea rose yet again and I turned my head barely fast enough to vomit off the side of the bed once again.
It had to have been him, he removed my clothing. Did he... had he...? Oh Jasper please, please help me."

Preview Chapter 27 Only At Night
Suddenly I was feeling a bit nauseous, flushed, a little lightheaded. I really should have eaten lunch before the ceremony. The champagne on an empty stomach coupled with all the excitement and having my family all together, was getting to me.
"I need to use the ladies room before we join the others."
"Yeah, ok, I'll meet you right back here in the hall way."
Maybe if I splashed some cool water on my face, I'd be ok. Each step I took into the opulent hotel ladies room, I felt my legs weakening and the room began to spin. Everything was getting fuzzy, out of focus. Reaching out for the sink I frantically grabbed at the porcelain to remain standing. Trying to focus on my features in the mirror, I realized, this wasn't the effects of champagne on an empty stomach. Oh shit, my clammy hands began to loosen on the cold hard sink as I watched my pale face lose its remaining color and knew I was in serious trouble, Then I saw him in the mirror behind me, just as I began to lose consciousness. I tried to cream, I tried to open my mouth and form the words, but I heard nothing as the blackness crept in and his dark features blurred until there was only darkness.
Jacob.
I barely registered the feeling of falling, being caught in strong arms that were all wrong, not the ones that normally held me, comforted me. Then nothing.
