The Lost one

Imprinting

Me: I think I imprinted.

Nik: Are you completely sure? How do you know?

Me: I am not sure for certain. I know that there is something inside of me drawing to her. Like even now, I can sense how far away she is from me. She is walking to the room now.

Katerina: What is going on? Are you ganging up on her?

Me: No Katerina, they are not ganging up on me.

Katerina: *Turns to Elijah* Have you upset her? Why does she look that way?

Me: Ok mama bear. Lets take a walk.

Nik, Bekah, and Eli walk out of the room so Katerina and I could get dressed. I Just go to grab another t-shirt, while Katerina grabs some leggings. I look at her with my shirt on. Since I am six foot and she is five feet seven inches, my shirt is big on her. But she looks stunning none the less. I find myself stealing glances at her more than I would like to admit.

Kathrine: *She catches me looking at her as we are walking* See something you like?

Me: Ahhh *Heat starts to rush to my face, while I start scratching the back of my neck* I um, heh yeah I do.

Kathrine: Stuttering huh? Cats got your tongue love? *She is shamelessly flirting with me now.*

Me: Um no.

Kathrine: What has you all flustered Anaiah?

Me: You know what has me in this state Katerina.

Kathrine: Maybe I do. Maybe I don't. Maybe, *She gets in front of me and looks me in my eyes* I want to hear it from your mouth.

Me: You know you affect me Katerina. In ways no one else does. Is this what you wanted to hear?

Kathrine: It is one of the things I want to hear.

Me: What else would you like to hear?

Katerina: *She gets close to me and speaks in my ear* My name slip from your mouth in pleasure. But I have a feeling you are to chivalrous to give me what I want now. I know courting is something your family enjoys doing. But sometimes it is better to get straight to the fun things.

My mouth is wide open and my little friend is waking up. I was not expecting this. I mean I know she likes to flirt and tease. But this was something else.

Me: I suppose it is. Tell me. Do I affect you as you do me? *I decide to test the waters. I place one of my hands on her neck. Gripping it as lower myself to her, whispering in her ear. I hear her breath hitch and she gasps slightly. I am satisfied with the non-verbal answer* I see that I do.

I start to walk away. Feeling like I won the little battle we just had. She catches up to me quickly. I wonder how much she knows about mates and imprinting. I know only a little myself. But I am curious of what she knows.

Me: What do you know about imprinting?

Kathrine: What? Why?

Me: I am curious. Humor me.

Kathrine: I know it is a wolf thing. Something about them finding their person. Like how some vampires are sired to others feel that they have to do everything that their sire says. But it is different than that right? When a wolf imprints they are there for the person in whatever form they need. Whether it be a brother, sister, parental figure, or something romantic right? They feel they have to protect their person no matter the cost. The person doesn't have control over them, but they affect them heavier than anyone else. I have also heard that if the person that the wolf imprinted on decided the relationship is more romantic, they become mates. Is this true?
