Paul's POV

I watched my imprint drive off into the night, I never wanted her to leave my side, let alone now. I walked back towards the house, I stopped at my mom's car she had already brought one suit case in but knowing my mother there had to be at least one more waiting to be carried in. I glanced into the backseat threw the tinted window, in the backseat lay another suit case, grate she planned to stay longer then the weekend. I know my mother had my best interest at heart, but sometimes I wish she would just but out of my love life.

I had confessed to her years ago that Drea was my imprint, I had that feeling that now that my imprint was coming of age she was going to do her best to set us up. Like I really needed my mother's help. I just didn't have the heart to tell her, and no that does not make me a tit ball or a mommy's boy. I just didn't want to disappoint her. She had been looking forward to hooking me up with a girl of her choice for years. I knew how much she liked Andrea, the smile on her face when she saw us together was enough to make me want to grab Andrea and run to the hills.

I grabbed her suit case from the

car; she frowned at me as I brought the bag into the house. In reality it should be me frowning at her. She had only been at my house for ten minutes and already she was hard at work picking up the living room. Even though Drea had already cleaned the whole thing.

"You better watch out son, Drea see's you doing any lifting she going to kick your ass with my blessing."

I laughed setting the case down in my guest room. "Go ahead tell her, she can spank me anytime, besides there's nothing wrong with my other arm."

She smiled as I walked over and kissed her on the cheek.

"So tell me, how things are going with you and Drea. I am hoping that I have cause for celebration, did I not see her leave wearing your clothes." Gosh I wish I had news's like that. My wolf would be so much more relaxed. It had been nearly two full years since my wolf started begging me to complete the mating bond. Not really sure if I remembered what a relaxed wolf was anymore.

"Sorry mom we got soaked running from the truck. But I did kiss her for the first time today."

Saying she looked like she had just won the lottery was an understatement.

"I'm so proud of you." She smiled patting me on the shoulder

I closed my eye's groaning, I knew I shouldn't have told her, my mother always was a pro at making me feel like I was ten years old again. She loved embarrassing me; I think she loved watching my face turn pink.

"Yeah I kissed her, I told her I'm going to stop by latter and talk with her."

She walked over to the kitchen pouring her a cup of coffee before sitting down at the table. I watched her as she slowly sipped her cup, her silence worrying me more than anything else she could be doing right now. Silence meant she was planning something most of the time that meant something embarrassing for me.

"Are you finally going to tell her about the Imprint?"

I shook my head, walking into the kitchen, garbing a beer from the frig. I needed something stronger than a damn I couldn't go to my imprint with anything but a clear mind

"I don't know, sometimes I feel like she's too young yet, then other time's I feel like agreeing with my wolf and just telling her." I said planting myself in a chair across the table from my mother.

"Son, she has a right to know." She said looking at me over the rim of her cup.

I knew my mother was right, but the thought of Andrea rejecting the imprint made me crazy. I laid my head down on the table, the room suddenly becoming way to hot. I couldn't do this I couldn't lose her, I couldn't lose my imprint. I felt my lungs squeeze shut as I tried to breathe. Mom came around laying her hand on my shoulder. It had been years since I had a panic attack but I still remembered the panic that came with them.

"Paul, I've seen the way that girl looks at you, she loves you, now I'm going to go to bed. I've had a long day and us old lady's do not travail well."

I smiled up at my mother, she always knew what to say to me, ever since I was a kid and I had begun to have panic attacks. Not even when one of my attacks turned me into a 300 pound wolf had she batted an eye at helping my attacks.

"Sweet hearts go to her, tell her the truth." I stood heading towards the door, I turned to look back at my mother, "Are you sure you are going to be okay while I'm gone. "I asked

"Yes son, go to your imprint, and remember I want to be a grandmother soon." I knew my mother was just trying to get rid of me. She thought I should be standing every hour of the day trying to convince Andrea to marry me. Hell for all I knew Andrea might be freaking out now because she kissed an older man. Hell I was old enough to be her dad.

I laughed shaking my head as I jumped behind the wheel of my truck. Drea hadn't been gone for long, but damn I missed her. It felt like a lot longer than a few minutes to my wolf.

Drea's POV

I pulled the truck into the drive way, Dad, Jake and Seth was standing by the front porch wearing only cut off shorts. I would bet anything they had just come from the woods.

"So you're the truck thief." dad asked smiling crossing his arms over his chest.

"You're so funny daddy, like you didn't know I had the truck. Anyway I thought driving to Paul's was a better idea since I didn't want a repeat of earlier."

I couldn't help the smile that crossed my face as all three growled.

"Till this mess is taken care of I don't want you going to anywhere without one of the wolf's, that's an order young lady."

"Yes oh mighty alpha. "I laughed as I walked past the three wolfs, I smiled at Jake and Seth as I passed them, it was funny as hell watching them trying to contain their laughter as dad sent them a glare.

"I'm serious, Do I even want to know why you're wearing Paul's clothes."

I smiled looking back at him knowing now was the perfect chance for me to one up him.

"Oh I was just rolling around with him between his sheets."

Jake and Seth busted out laughing, dad paled, Seth and Jake both looked like they were about to piss them self with laughter.

"Andrea Athena Uley, your grounded" Dad growled shooting a glare at Jake and Seth.

"Don't worry daddy I was only kidding, my clothes got wet from the rain, I just forgot them in the dryer before I left."

Dad's expression hadn't changed any which slightly worried me. Crap maybe I shouldn't have opened my mouth.

"You're still grounded for scarring me." Dad said shaking his head as he turned back towards Seth and Jake as they tried to control there laughter.

"Yeah, yeah" I knew he would forget about my little prank as soon as I went inside. Dad never had been good at punishing me, all I had to do was say I love you daddy and he would forget about whatever it was I had done wrong. That had worked for a while till mom figured out what was going on and took over time outs, Lucky me. I felt sorry for Paul next time dad saw him. Probably was going to be a little tense.

Sam's POV

I watched as my little girl walked away from me. She wasn't my little girl anymore, she was Paul's Imprint. I growled as said wolf pulled his truck in the driveway. My wolf was too close to the surface to deal with Paul right now ,all it wanted was to attack Paul, keep him away from our pup . My wolf growled in the back of my head. I knew Paul felt my wolf as he walked towards me. I was not the only one who felt like he was losing his baby, my wolf wanted to force Paul away from our pup. As much as I wanted to do just that I knew Drea would never forgive me.

"Sam I have to tell her, I can't take it much longer."

I growled at him, making Paul look down at the ground. There was no way in hell I was going to let him make Andrea into a woman before her time.

"Dude now might not be a good time; Drea just told Sam you had her between your sheets."

My eyes narrowed as Paul's face Paled. "Sam, that's not what happened. I Swear to you I would never disrespect my imprint like that, I need to tell her."

"No Drea's too young, she not ready to know."

"Are you sure about that Sam or are you not ready for her to know?"

I knew Paul's wolf was fighting with him. The wolf in him wanted to attack me, then take Drea away I braced myself for an attack.

"What am I too young to know daddy."

I looked at the front porch; Drea had just walked out of the house. My determination to fight Paul all but deflated now that my pup could be in the cross fire. She crossed her arms over her chest as she leaned against the porch, she knew we had been talking about her; she would never leave it alone till she knew the truth.

"Sam, please" Paul begged as Drea walked off the porch standing between Paul and myself.

"What's going on" She looked at both Paul and myself confused. I watched as my baby turned towards Paul taking his uninjured hand.

"Tell me Paul." I could feel my wolf wine, she was going to find out now and no longer be ours.

I watched Paul battles with his wolf then look over at me then back towards Andrea.

"I can't, your dad alpha ordered me not to."

Drea looked over at me her eyes narrowing. I had never seen a look like that in my babies girls eyes, and if I was a lucky man I would never see it again.

"Then you tell me, I am almost eighteen years old, I will not have you and your wolf's talking about me like I am a baby who can't handle anything."

I looked over at my little girl. She wasn't a baby anymore that much I knew, it was just hard letting her go. Taking deep breath I nodded at Paul.

"Tell her." I growled running towards the woods phasing with my clothes on.

Drea's POV

I watched my dad run off into the woods, what the hell could be going that would make him act like that.

"Paul tell me please."

I watched as he battled with his thoughts, he nodded looking at me. The worried look from earlier had returned to his eye's. I wanted to kiss him then; I wanted to make everything all better for him.

"Let's go for a walk.

He turned walking towards the beach; I had run to keep up with him. Most of the wolfs walked faster than me, so I usely found myself jogging to keep up with them. I nearly slammed into his back as he suddenly stopped

'Drea you know I like you, but it's more than that, I imprinted on you."

I stopped dead in my tracks. There was no way I heard him correctly.

"Did I hear you right, you imprinted when?" Had my dreams really just came true? Would Paul really be mine forever.

Paul didn't look at me for a moment, it was only then I realized that he might not be happy with the imprint.

"How long have you known Paul?"

He still didn't look at me he just kept staring out at the cool blue ocean. I felt my heart breaking as he stayed silent. I knew I should have never given him my heart.

"Look at me damn it, you may not like that you imprinted but don't take that out on me." I yelled tear's forming in my eyes

He looked at me then, "You think I'm unhappy about the imprint?"

"Are you" I asked looking into his beautiful brown eyes.

"Hell no Dre, I've always been happy about our imprint ever since I found out about it when you were a baby."

Since I was a baby, damn he had been waiting for me that long. It made since now thinking back to the days when he used to let me tag along with him and the other wolfs. I was his imprint; he wanted to make me happy.

"So what does that mean for us now?" I asked looking at him. I loved this wolf with all my heart; I wanted him to return my feelings. Now that I knew I was his Imprint I knew he just might.

"Drea you know better than most how the imprint works, it's up to you to decide what you want from our relationship. If you want me to just stay your friend forever I'm fine with that. But I would be lying to you if I didn't tell you a very large part of me wants more than that."

I looked up at him more in love with him then I ever thought possible.

"I love you Paul, I want you as more then my friend. I want you to be mine, I always have."

He reached forwards grabbing me. He wrapped his arms tightly around me holding me to his chest. "I love you too, I'll always take care of you my beautiful imprint." He leaned down capturing my lips with his own, I melted against him. He was mine, fate had gifted me with Paul, I knew then that I would never let him go.
