It's what happens when a werewolf sees his soulmate or perfect match for the first time (or for the first time since he's become a werewolf if they already know each other). It's described as gravity moving. That person becomes the most important individual in his life, and all other relationships disappear in comparison. The werewolf will do whatever it takes to keep the imprintee safe and happy. If the imprintee is an adult, he'll fall in love with her instantly, even if he was already in love with someone else at the time. If the imprintee is younger, he'll be a protective brother-figure, then a best friend, then will finally fall in love with her once she's old enough.
