"I'd do anything to imprint on someone, anyone. Just so I don't have to constantly be the pathetic ex-girlfriend Sam can't get away from." "Maybe in another life, you'll get your happy ending." "I hope so, Khamani. I hope so." - It wasn't fair that Leah couldn't imprint. It wasn't fair that she had to listen to Sam's thoughts about Emily, knowing that it was her cousin of all people he imprinted on. As if her life wasn't fucked up already, she had to watch the man she loved move on as if fate wanted her to suffer. Sam Uley is still in love with Leah Clearwater. That will never change. Having imprinted on Emily, it leaves a irreparable pit between with a permanent reminder of what fate had for them. Khamani is a childhood friend of Leah and Sam. She had seen it all, witnessed the rise and fall of Sam and Leah's relationship given her high hopes of them working out. As she moves back to her hometown for the summer, she had realized how much has changed and the bonds that are no longer there. Khamani didn't appreciate the way the pack had seemed to dismiss Leah's feelings, as if she wasn't hurting too. So when Leah imprints on Khamani, things change for either the best or the worst. And for Sam? Well, everything's conflicting enough.
