Chapter 29
She was mad at me because I hadn't told her. Because I apparently have no choice but to love her.
It wasn't like that though. It was like the sprits point out the Imprint to the wolf, who then has the choice of loving and protecting her, or just leaving.
She just becomes what makes him happy. It's not a case of being forced. I wanted to be with her. I wanted to see her smile and I wanted to help her find her voice.
I needed to tell her that, but she wasn't going to listen to me. Then I had an idea: I would write her a note back.
I grabbed some paper and a pen, and I started to write.
"I am sorry I didn't tell you about the Imprint. But I wanted to wait until you could talk to me. I wanted to take you to a bonfire to meet the pack and hear Billy tell the stories before I took you for a walk to tell you.
I do have a choice: Imprinting is like the spirits point out the perfect girl for you. You can choose to try finding a different girl, but it doesn't matter because she's the one who is exactly right for you. I want to be with you because you're beautiful, because I love your cooking, because I want to see you smile, because you've made me happier than I could have imagined.
Please, just don't be mad at me.

I ran over to her house with the note. I knocked on the door and Paul opened it.
"She doesn't want to see you." He told me, "Sorry."
"Just give her this, please?" I asked him, holding out the note.
He smiled and said "Ok." before going inside and shutting the door.
