Chapter 7

Seth laid in his bed that night unable to sleep. Jacob had walked him home neither of them saying a word. The beta wanted to explain more about imprinting since the discussion turned from him phasing to Leah and Hemene imprinting on each other. The she-wolf was refusing to acknowledge the imprint saying it was a mistake and that she didn't return the imprint.

"Even if you didn't return it Leah, you can't deny that Hemene imprinted on you."

"I can and I will." she said storming out phasing before removing her clothes.

"You might want to go to her. There is no telling what she will do." Paul said patting Hemene on the back.

"Yeah and good luck with that one. Stubborn is her middle name." Jared scoffed.

Hemene looked at Billy who nodded a sad smile on his face. Hermene had his work set out for him if he wanted to earn the affections of the she-wolf.

"Sam, do I have your permission to shift on your lands?"

"Of course. However if you so much hurt Leah I will personally hunt you down myself." Sam admitted.

"Come on Pup I'll walk you home." Jacob said as Seth started leaning on him more as time went on.

"So what is imprinting exactly." Seth asked as Jacob pulled him out of his home.

The rest of the pack started calling out their farewells making Seth forget about his question. Only for the time been though, but having Jacob holding him close made his mind forgetful. As though he was in a dream state. When they got to the Clearwater house Sue had greeted them at the door and quickly bid Jacob goodnight meaning that any talk would have to wait.

Sue of course knew about the pack, being an elder since her husband died. The honor would go to Seth when he was an adult but in the meantime she stood in his place. The pair had argued Seth angry at his mother for not telling him the truth not only about the pack but about the pain she was going through and wouldn't turn to her kids for support. With that the young man went to bed saying he was tired.

When Seth heard his sister come up the stairs he turned in his bed and willed himself to sleep. No one could tell him when he would phase only that it was close. There was a light tap at his door and he waited till he felt a dip on his bed before he turned knowing it was Leah and not her mother. He couldn't be mad at his sister as like the rest of the pack she was alpha ordered by Sam.

"Come here." she said pulling her young brother into her arms.

"What's it really like Lee?"

"It's amazing. You will love it I promise. The speed the strength the agility everything. Your senses become a hundred times better. Your sense of smell and hearing. Even sight."

"If I get eyes. What if I'm blind. Do you really think I will get to see Lee. You think I will be normal?"

"Who's to say your not normal Seth. To me you're just my annoying little brother. Same goes for Jacob he only sees you as an amazing human being."

"But he didn't imprint on me did he?"

Leah took a deep breath and pushed Seth down onto his back and laid beside him. When they were younger they often snuggled up in bed during a storm. Leah never admitted it but it was her that hated storms. Seth even when little would make her feel safe and held her tight often singing songs well the storm raged outside. Of course they had grown out of it years ago.

"As a wolf we need to see our imprints eyes. It's like we can see into their soul. The pull is strong and forever."

"Did you imprint on Hemene?"

"Yeah. I hate the idea of imprinting so much. You know that Sam imprinted on Emily and that is why he left me. Some screwed up shifter thing said she was better for him."

"You still want Sam?"

"I don't know." Leah sighed again turning to her side facing her brother. "I can't deny the imprint on Hemene."

"So is he handsome?" Seth asked.

"Very." Leah giggled.

The pair talked well into the night and slept until noon wrapped in each other's arms. The brother and sister spent the day together the pack leaving them alone including Seth. They had assured the young man that he won't spontaneously combust without warning. Leah wanted to go for a walk down the beach and so hand in hand they made their way towards the beach. In the distance the she-wolf saw her imprint sitting on a rock overlooking the ocean.

They had talked for hours and the more they talked the more Leah liked the older man. Even though she wasn't ready to be anything more than friends at the moment Hemene said he was happy to wait for her no matter how long she needed. When he had walked her home he had kissed her lightly on the cheek wishing her sweet dreams.

"Why don't you go talk to him?" Seth asked.

Leah was about to protest when someone spoke behind them. "Go on Leah I will stay with Seth."

"I..I… Ugh, fine."

Leah stormed off not looking back at her brother and her pack brother. Both men chuckled as they heard her muttering under her breath about annoying little brothers.

"How are you Pup?" Paul asked as they slowly made their way down the beach in the opposite direction of Leah and Hemene.

"Honestly, I don't know. I'm sorry you had to leave your family for me. It must have been hard."

"Don't worry your pretty little head about it Seth." Paul tapped Seth's button nose. "I got to see places I would have never got to see. Besides look what I came back too. A mate and a new pack brother."

"Soon to be pack brother." Seth corrected him. "So you and Brady. I didn't know either of you were gay."

"It's not something we shout from the rooftop is it?"

"No I guess not." Seth admitted.

"So how's your leech?"

"Sorry?" Seth asked confused.

"You know what's his name.. Edward is it?"

"Edward Cullen?" Seth stopped in his tracks. "Are you telling me that he is a vampire?" Seth began to tremble. Paul let his arm go and stepped back.

"Seth calm down. Edward is one of the good guys. Well as far as leeches go."

"He's a fucking leech." Seth screamed.

"Oh shit. Come on Seth calm down you can't phase here someone might see you. Paul went to grab Seth's arm only for him to wrench it away. Suddenly Seth started running stumbling and tripping as he went towards the tree line. Paul cupped his hands over his mouth and howled to the pack.

Leah and Hemene were there both grabbing one of Seth's arms holding him up not letting him fight out of their grip. Paul had run ahead and phased, ready to explain to the pack what was happening and to make sure that Seth had someone to talk to if the pack didn't phase in on time. As soon as they were in a clearing Hemene and Leah let him go. The young boy stumbled and landed on all fours. Leah was about to shift only to be held back by her imprint.

"Stay in your human form. Let the first human he sees is his sister." Leah nodded and stood back knowing she couldn't get to close.

"Seth don't fight it. Let him out." Leah said trying to get Seth to relax as much as possible.

The young man growled and shook his head. Not listening to his sister he kept trying to fight the need to phase.

"Seth please." Leah begged after 10 minutes. The pack were surrounding him in a circle to keep him safe.

"I hate you all. I never asked for this. You let me near a leech." Seth snapped.

"I know that you think we weren't looking out for you Seth but the Cullen's are diff…."

There was a whimper from one of the wolves. Seth snapped his head up and got to his feet. His whole body trembled becoming a blur. The pack watched in amazement as Seth's body slowly transformed. The pack gasped as they looked at the newest member of their pack.

The wolf tilted his head back and howled. The pack quickly responded and howled back welcoming their pack brother.

"Seth." Leah whispered.

The wolf turned towards his sister. "Oh my god." she cried her hand going to her mouth.
