Chapter 1

It was around 10:30 at night, and all the imprinted wolves were pissed that they had to be here. It, honestly, didn't matter to me... if I'm not here, then I'm at home getting the grounding of my life. Everyone was listening to Sam... just not really paying attention as much. I inhaled deeply and the most unusual combination hit my nose. I smelled cream, ginger, lemons, blood, and cum. When I turned around, I was met with an unexpected sight.

A girl with chestnut brown hair to her ribs, pale peach skin, wearing a black T-shirt that went to her knees, approached us. I looked closer and saw that she was limping... with cum and blood running down her pale, bruised legs. I looked up further and saw that she had blood running down her arms and hands, from four slashes, each, on both forearms... along with even more bruises coloring her skin. I dared to look further... she had a handprint shaped bruise on her neck, and her right cheek looked like it had been punched, along with another bruise blooming underneath it. Her lips were swollen and her cheeks were tearstained... Her eyes were closed, her arms crossed over her chest, her IPod in her right hand, and her music was blasting.

Not one move, she doesn't know we're here. Sam told us. Just move out of the way, so she can go.

Sam, she's hurt. Seth pointed out.

We'll get her in a moment... she can't see our wolf forms.

We watched as she continued to limp, and tears ran down her cheeks as she started to sing with her music.

Show me how it ends it's alright

Show me how defenseless you really are

satisfied and empty inside

Well, that's alright, let's give this another try

If you find your family, don't you cry

In this land of make-believe, dead and dry

You're so cold, but you feel alive

Lay your hand on me one last time

Show me how it ends it's alright

Show me how defenseless you really are

satisfied and empty inside

Well, that's alright, let's give this another try

She passed us, not even realizing that we were there... I whimpered, when I realized how hurt she was, as I stepped back to let her pass. She didn't even make it to the other end of the meadow when she had collapsed. I jumped up and phased back, pulling up my shorts, and ran over to her. The rest of the pack followed after me... I held her, like a child, on my lap and she opened her eyes. I gasped as I met her hazel eyes... Everything changed and became about this angel in my arms. I saw her pregnant with my child, flashes of me touching her as we made love, but I also saw Quil with his arms around her, like they were together. Jake told me about when he imprinted on Nessie... I think I just imprinted on this girl.

Tears ran down the corners of her eyes as she looked at me, and Quil came up in front of me. He looked down at her, his jaw slack as he fell to his knees. He gasped for breath as his whole life seemed to flash before his eyes, like me. He reached out to run the back of his hand down her cheek, and she closed her eyes as she whimpered and nuzzled his hand. He looked up at me, and I felt that shift, again. This time, I saw both of us walking down the beach with her in the middle of us, holding our hands, him and I both kissing her cheeks at the same time as she smiled, her in between us, our hands running over her body as we made love to her, taking turns. We looked at each other in shock, and the rest of the pack had come up. Could it be possible? Did we just imprint on the same girl... and each other?

The girl had passed out and Sam tried to take her out of my arms, but both Quil and I growled at him. I held the girl closer to my chest and Quil stepped forward to keep her close to me. Sam looked at us like we were crazy, but stepped back. I carried her to Emily's and Quil walked with me as the rest of the pack phased and went ahead.

Quil looked down at the girl in my arms, "Do you think... we just doubled on an imprint?"

"And imprinted on each other?" I finished, "I don't know..."

"It feels like when Jake imprinted on Nessie, ya know?"

"I know... I felt it, too."

"I didn't understand why you were in my imprint flash, until we looked at each other and saw all of those flashes of us with her..."

"Same here... What was I doing in your flash?" I asked.

"Just holding her, like a boyfriend would... What about me?"

"Same..."

He sighed, "Guess I better ask my Grandpa about this... At least we know that we're not brothers, right? I mean... there's no way that both of us could've imprinted on her, if we were related, right?"

I smiled a little, "Yeah, I guess you're right. It really narrows it down..."

"I'm sorry, man... you know I didn't mean-"

"I know... don't worry about it."

When we got to Emily's, she waddled out of the house, holding her baby bump. She took a look at the girl and tsk'd as she shook her head.

"The poor darling..." she said, "Take her up to the spare room, Embry."

I nodded and Quil came with me as we took her upstairs. I laid her on the bed, in the spare room, and pushed her hair away from her face. Quil leaned over her and pushed her hair off her shoulders, then took her iPod out of her hand and ears. He shut it off and set it on the night stand, then I sat on the edge of the bed as he sat at the end. We looked down at her sleeping form and felt the pull of the imprint bond, or whatever it was, towards her... even as she slept. We didn't even know her name and we were already in love with her, already cared too much about her. We growled at our ALPHA, because we're so protective of her, already! Question is... Are we truly ready for an imprint bond? Much less... a triple imprint bond?
