i slowed down, breathing heavily. I had been running for days, maybe even weeks I had lost track of time. I had changed out of my wolf form long ago to avoid contact with the pack. So here I was, a human running through the woods near new Hampshire.

It had been stupid and irrational to run. I had only done it to keep myself from confronting my feelings. But that had not really worked because now I’m lost in the middle of a strange place with no one but my thoughts, and I’m too exhausted to do anything about it.

I dropped down towards the ground and used a nearby tree to lean against. I continued to get my breathing under control, and was satisfied after about 15 min.

Now I had other problems, like eating. I had not eaten I at least 3 days if not more. I forced my aching muscles to cooperate and slowly rose to my feet. I winced slightly as my entire body protested and the pain rippled through me in waves.

After a few minuets, the pain was slightly more bearable. I struggled and slowly took a step. Nearly collapsing as the pain returned with vengeance.

I struggled on for another hour ½ before giving up and falling back down to the ground. The forest was quiet forcing me to wallow in my pain and in my sorrows. But no matter what was happening, my mind always drifted back to her…

Bella, I had loved her and she had loved him. I could never replace him. I remembered how he left her broken and how I put her back together. Just to run back to him and smashed my heart along the way. I only wish there was someone here to fix me.

Thoughts like these were relentlessly harassing my brain when I heard something that made my whole thought process stop. My eyes bulged out and I shot up like a bullet. It was beautiful. That’s when I realized that that wonderful sound was a voice.

Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in your sea of forgetfulness
The chains of yesterday surround me
I yearn for peace and rest
I don't want to end up where You found me
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight
I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

It made me feel terrible to hear this beautiful creature singing about her (by then I had figured out it was a girl) pain. I wanted to hug her, reassure her.

Jesus, can You show me just how far the east is from the west
'cause I can't bear to see the man I've been come rising up in me again
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
'cause You know just how far the east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other

I was barely conscience that I was standing and walking toward the voice.

I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sin
Time and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

I was at the end of the woods now and before me stood a run down old church. It looked as if it had not been used in years. But I did not really pay attention to the appearance of the building, but more on the angel singing inside.

I know You've washed me white, turned my darkness into light
I need Your peace to get me through, to get me through this night
I can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your word reveals
I'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to me
You're holding on to me

I stared in through the doors and there stood the most buetiful girl I had ever seen. She had pale skin, long dark hair and vibrant brown eyes. Her attention was directed toward the wall in front of her and did not appear to have noticed me. She continued and I listened stunned to silence.

Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west
I don't have to see the man I've been come rising up in me again
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
'cause You know just how far the east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other
One scarred hand to the other
From one scarred hand to the other

She finished her song and I stood there absorbing her presence, trying to tell myself she was real. I moved my foot slightly and the old boards creaked and she turned to stare at me, shock evident on her face.

I smiled and in the blink of an eye everything made sense, and something I never dreamed would happen did, I had imprinted.
