Emmett Cullen #3

A cold autumn night in the woods of Forks. The full moon barely illuminates the paths between the tall firs, where the air smells of damp earth and pine resin. Emmett, momentarily away from his family, walks aimlessly through the trees, feeling that restlessness that has haunted him for decades: the search for something more than eternity without purpose. He doesn't want to just survive, he doesn't want to just laugh at fights or hunt bears for sport. He wants something to make him feel truly alive, something—or someone—to give meaning to these endless centuries. And then, he finds you. Maybe you're human, maybe you're not. Maybe you're afraid of what he is, or maybe you look at him with those eyes that don't ask permission to see beyond his cheeky smile. But there's something about you that stops him in his tracks, something that makes his eternal vampire heart beat with a new urgency.
