Renesmee Black (Fanfic) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 21 - Were-Wolves Galore

Chapter 21

Were-Wolves Galore

    Carlisle had to take time off at the hospital so he could be here with us all during the time of the Varcolac’s visit. He and Esme, along with Jasper and Alice, left early this morning to rent four large vans for the Varcolac clan. We still didn’t have any idea how large their clan was but Carlisle wanted to be prepared.

    Meantime, Mom and I prepared the house with blow up mattresses, extra blankets and pillows. We didn’t know if they would be comfortable sleeping inside but we didn’t want to seem rude by making a tent city in the back yard. Rosalie and Emmet left to buy tents and sleeping bags just in case they did want to sleep outside. Dad  made the grocery run with Jacob, Collin and Bradey. Jacob didn’t trust vampires to pick out good food since they didn’t eat. The only one he liked and trusted to do the grocery shopping was Esme. I had a good laugh at him for it too.

  By lunch we were prepared, or at least we all hoped we were.

  We all ended up on the front porch taking a break and hanging out together when the first of the vans could be heard leaving the asphalt several miles away at the entrance to our property and drive on to our loose graveled road. Collin and Bradey instantly perked up and became excited as they shuffled off the porch.

   Driving the first van was Carlisle with Esme sitting in the passenger seat. He drove off the road and further into the yard than we expected but eventually parked and turned the engine off. Driving the next was Jasper with Alice in the passenger seat. They parked next to Carlisle and slowly began to exit the vehicle as other vans came around the corner. I was surprised to see seven vans in total. They nearly took up the entire front yard.

   Even Jacob shifted uncomfortably from the amount of werewolf’s exiting the vans. I squeezed his flexed arm and smiled up to him reassuringly and told him to relax. He nodded and kissed me sweetly on the cheek. But I too couldn’t help but slightly tense up.

   I was first to hug Esme and then Carlisle as he walked towards the house with a group of the Varcolac’s. I smiled brightly at the guests. “Good to see you again, Regina, Louis,” I nodded to each as I shook their hands.

  They kindly returned the gesture and motioned to the others with them. “Renesmee, Jacob, this is Nicolai, the youngest member of our clan,” he pushed a shy teenager towards me.

  I looked up to Regina and then looked to Nicolai. He was slender and almost as tall as me with cute Russian features; I could tell he was very nervous.

  I held my hand out to him and he looked at it before looking to Regina for approval. After she nodded to him he returned a smile to me and shook my hand. “Nice to meet you,” he spoke in a prepubescent voice and Russian accent. He must have been turned before he had a chance to reach puberty; poor kid.

  “How old are you,” I blurted out there and then froze from dread thinking I just insulted him. I forced a smile.

  He and Regina chuckled from my reaction and I smiled in relief.

  “I am seventy four but I am sure you meant how old I was when I was turned,” he spoke freely and I nodded. He laughed, “I was fourteen.”

  I nodded in understanding and a little in awe. He was a lot older than me. From his thoughts I found that he hadn’t traveled away from the clan’s home-base since he was brought to them a few months after he was bitten. So he was nervous and worried about all of this and especially meeting vampires, shape shifters and me for the first time.

  After a quick scan through the others minds, I found a lot of them hadn’t been anywhere except the area around their dwelling. So this was a big step for most. That didn’t help the nerves of my Dad either. He seemed overwhelmed by all the chaotic thoughts but didn’t show it one bit. As for Jasper, he couldn’t help but show it because it was driving him insane. He and Alice sweetly excused their selves and left for the night.
