"Imprint? On me? Seriously??" Viktor didn't know what to think since he was new to the concept of this whole imprinting thing. Of course, he had already learned that werewolves imprint on each other upon finding the best possible mate for them. Usually, it was even out of their control, and one can at best only try to imprint on someone they like, which usually wouldn't work if their bloodline deemed them incompatible in every way.
But something equally surprising he realized was that Talia was a werewolf! Now he realized why he always felt that something was off about her. However, this also meant that he finally met one…someone who shared similar traits with him and someone who might be coming from a place where he could get the answers he wanted. Still, the original question of why she was interested in him remained. Could she be…
Nyissa quickly modified her original statement, "No…not really. I am saying she already imprinted on you, and of course, you won't know that. But what you felt was her trying to make you imprint on her."
"She wanted to make me imprint on her? These kinds of things are possible? She can just force me or any werewolf to simply fall in love with her?" Viktor thought that this was indeed something to be very concerned about. The last thing he wanted was to mindlessly fall in love with someone without his own volition.
"Not really. Apparently, she miserably failed…twice it seems, based on what you told me. She must be really desperate, I guess, to try again despite failing the first time. Still, since she had the confidence to try, I guess she is probably an Alpha," Nyissa said with her slender eyebrows pulled together.
"An Alpha? Aren't they usually the leader of some packs or holding a high position within a clan?" Viktor had learned some terms and facts regarding the werewolves and vampires from Nyissa and Umilia.
"Well, an Alpha werewolf is someone who is the strongest within their pack, or if they were coming from a huge clan, they would be someone who has thousands of subordinates or more and would belong to the top 0.1% strongest group of their clan. That is how rare Alphas are, and their strength varies depending on their origins. Of course, the leader of the clan would be the True Alpha, leading the entire clan with the other Alphas," Nyissa said as she crossed her legs one over the other, trying to explain things as simple as possible for Viktor, who was gradually learning more about the supernatural world.
Viktor had a perplexed expression as he sat on her desk and said, "So…this girl or woman if she is trying to fool me with her goofy disguise…why is she so interested in me to the point of warning to mate with me? I don't even know her or even seen her before in the past."
Nyissa sighed as she rubbed the side of her head, thinking that things were indeed complicated, "It is how imprinting works. Maybe she never expected to imprint on you and was probably disappointed when you didn't imprint on her. So she must have thought that she had no choice but to make you imprint on her as well. An Alpha has the power to make others submit to them as long as their bloodline is strong enough relatively."
"Then how come she failed? Are you telling me my bloodline is stronger or something?" Viktor curiously asked.
Nyissa nodded as she looked at Viktor with a strange expression, "Maybe…though I can't be sure which bloodline you exactly belong to. And she was lucky that she didn't try it during the night when your werewolf self takes dominance. Instead, her efforts were thwarted by your vampire self, making it even more impossible for her to make you imprint on her."
Viktor remembered his vampire blood getting activated the moment Talia tried to make him imprint on her. Only now he realized that it was his blood trying to protect his mind and body as a self-defense mechanism. And as Nyissa said, a werewolf couldn't possibly make a vampire imprint on her. It was no different than trying to make oil and water mix together.
"So what would have happened if she tried it during the night?" Viktor asked with squinted eyes.
"Depending on how much stronger your werewolf bloodline is compared to hers, in the worst case, she could die from a backlash, or she might lose her mind and become a mindless slave to you. And if we are looking at the optimistic case, then she will submit to you without having any control over it. So while she would retain her consciousness, she wouldn't be able to refuse any of your commands or will. You could even simply control her with a thought as long as she is near you. But I doubt she would try again unless she has a death wish because at least by now, even a fool would know it wouldn't work and that she can't force her will on you," Nyissa said with a headshake, feeling even more interested in knowing about the true identity of this girl named Talia.
But most of all, Nyissa was inwardly pissed off that some random werewolf woman was trying to lay her hands on her man without her knowledge and going as far as trying to make him imprint on her.
She obviously didn't want Viktor to forget everyone else and make himself available only for Talia, tending to her every need and care and essentially being blindly in love with her. Just thinking about this was enough to make Nyissa feel her heart churning, but on the outside, she was remaining calm.
She could already feel that this woman was dangerously obsessed with her fiance since no werewolf would ever dare to try making someone imprint on them twice after failing the first time due to obvious reasons. It was literally considered suicide among them.
"Then I have nothing else to confirm about her.. I will take care of her myself," Viktor said as his gaze became hardened, deciding to get to the bottom of this.
