with　myths　and

legends；　to　turn　my　back　on　the　human　world。　Maybe

No。　Nothing　would　happen　to　Jacob。　I　had　to　believe　that　or　I　wouldn't　be　able

to　function。

〃Argh！〃　I　groaned；　and　jumped　off　the　log。　I　couldn't　sit　still；　it　was　worse

than　pacing。

I'd　really　been　counting　on　hearing　Edward　this　morning。　It　seemed　like　that

was　the　one　thing　that　might

make　it　bearable　to　live　through　this　day。　The　hole　had　been　festering　lately；

like　it　was　getting　revenge　for

the　times　that　Jacob's　presence　had　tamed　it。　The　edges　burned。

The　waves　picked　up　as　I　paced；　beginning　to　crash　against　the　rocks；　but

there　was　still　no　wind。　I　felt

pinned　down　by　the　pressure　of　the　storm。　Everything　swirled　around　me；　but　it

clouds　were　moving　by

their　own　will。　I　shivered；　though　I　knew　it　was　just　a　trick　of　the　pressure。

The　cliffs　were　a　black　knife　edge　against　the　livid　sky。　Staring　at　them；　I

remembered　the　day　Jacob　had

told　me　about　Sam　and　his　〃gang。〃　I　thought　of　the　boys—the　werewolves—

throwing　themselves　into　the

empty　air。　The　image　of　the　falling；　spiraling　figures　was　still　vivid　in　my

mind。　I　imagined　the　utter　freedom
