Dream of A Life Time (Paul Lahote Imprint Story)

Chapter 2

-Next Day-

I walked out of class holding my books close to my chest it moving around people bumping a few here

 and there getting them to yell at me but I couldn't find it in me to yell out and apology. I was like a 

walking zombie and everything was blurry around me, stopping at my locker I just stood there and 

then looked down the hall to see Marshal walk this way with his arm around Krissy's shoulder 

laughing and kissing her temple. I was happy like that once now the only love I can get is forced. They 

looked up at me and stared at me with sad eyes, I slammed my locker shut and ran down the hall 

getting more yells as I pushed my way through the crowd my vision blurring once I was outside and at 

my car I fell down to my knees and cried out holding my chest and crying. I could feel my heart 

breaking every minute I wasted being away from Paul and I could feel it but was I really ready to 

accept the imprint. Jumping up I got in my jeep and drove, getting to the library I ran to the back 

where I knew all the history books where with the 'legends' in them. I flipped through pages

When a shape-shifter imprints on a specific person, he becomes unconditionally bound to her for the 

rest of his life. When it happens, the experience is described as being gravitational pulled toward that 

person while a glowing heat fills him; the connections of everything else become severed, or simply 

secondary, and only the imprintee is left to matter, leaving the shape-shifter with a deep need to do 

anything to please and protect the person.

Imprinting occurs only after a wolf's first phasing. It can happen with anyone, regardless of previous 

personal feelings. It happens the first time he sees the human object of his imprinting; if the shape-

shifter does not react to a human subject the first time he sees them after he phases, that means he 

will never imprint on that human.

Imprinting can't be forced on anyone, no matter how much the shape-shifter may want it, how 

imprinting will be for the first female wolf in their tribe's history.

What would happen if a wolf is rejected by his imprintee is also unknown, though this is assumed to 

be virtually impossible; the imprinter is deemed to be the "perfect match" to the imprintee; he will be 

anything she may want or need, making rejection unlikely. Should it happen, however, the imprinter 

may feel unspeakable pain.

It is implied that once a shape-shifter imprints he will be able spend the rest of his life aging alongside

 his imprintee once he is able to quit phasing. It is also implied that should the imprinted be long-

living or immortal, the imprinter will live alongside her as long as he can phase regularly. It is 

unknown whether shape-shifters need to stop phasing and for how long before breeding.
