I had some requests for a Q&A so I'll answer what questions I can. Now a lot of questions I received had to do with the third generation or newest wolves and to be honest, I didn't put a lot of thought into them as I wasn't planning on writing their stories. So if you asked me about them, I probably don’t have an answer for you.
1) Are the Uley twins and the Black boys immortal?
Yes.
2) What happened with Will, Maggie, and Kyran?
LOL, ever since I came up with that storyline, I haven't been able to figure out what happens with them. According to my one theory, family members and imprints are drawn to each other. Ex: Sam was drawn to Leah because she shared Emily's DNA. I could see Maggie falling in love with Kyran because he has Will's DNA. But I hate the idea that Will would never be with his imprint. He's already suffered so much heartache, and he started phasing again for her. I put on the family tree that Kyran ended up with Rafe's daughter, Maya, as an alternative option for that love triangle.
3) How did Jared react to Ethan imprinting on Hayley?
He would have been happy for them. He didn’t object to Hayley being with a wolf. He objected to Hayley being with a wolf who wasn’t her imprint.
4) What happens with Collin & Amber? How does Luke imprint on Alexis if Collin doesn’t come back to La Push?
I recently told someone in a PM that if I ever come back to write one more fan fiction, it would be Collin and Amber’s story. I already have it written in my head, so for those reasons, I won't tell you what happens between them. But I want to stress that I don’t have the time, or to be honest, the interest in writing another fic at this point in my life. However, I will say that Collin obviously comes back at some point for Luke and Alexis to meet.
5) Did Mia imprint on Nahuel? And Elijah looks lonely on the family tree.
Yes, Mia imprinted on Nahuel…however, she never phased. Jace and Mia are a new type of hybrid. Because she comes from two Alpha bloodlines, Mia inherited certain gifts, including the power to imprint. LOL, as for poor Elijah, he needs to be with an immortal...I guess he could end up with one of Nahuel's sisters. *shrugs*
6) You have a lot of girls who become wolves (per the new family tree). Why is that?
Because Jace and Caleb needed to be with immortals like them. Imprints are made for each other. To be imprinted on means that you were created to be with that specific person. I don't like the idea of wolves imprinting on vampires, so the only other option is more female wolves. LOL, now Jace might need to end up with someone else other than Seth's daughter. I forgot they were related and the bloodline's a little too close for my comfort.
And that's really the only other information I have to offer everyone. Thanks again for reading my stories!

Jacob's Pack
Jacob, Seth, Leah (Beta), Quil, Embry
Gabe's Pack
Gabe
Nate's Pack
Nate, Devlin (Beta), Quil, Embry, Seth, Collin, Brady, Azra, Ryan, Jason, Sean (Paul's son), Will, Lilly (Leah's daughter), Luke Call (Embry's son)
Jace's Pack
Jace, Caleb Black (Gabe/Lilly's son - Beta), Elijah Black (Gabe/Lilly's son), Julian Clearwater (Leah's son), Azra, Brady, Jason, Zoe Clearwater (Seth's daughter - only in the pack a short time due to being Jace's imprint), Brooke Spencer (Ryan and Gracie's daughter - Caleb's imprint)
Background Information
After Julian, Zoe, and Brooke phase, Jace uses his power to creative a protective barrier around all Quileutes. No matter where they are in the world, vampires won't go near them, thus ending the need for future generations of wolves.

Family Tree
Here is the final family tree I made. I had paired these couples long before the Official Twilight Guide ever came out (I never even read it). The facts and family connections mentioned in that book don't exist in my Imprint Saga. Also, some couples on here don't show that they had kids (like Azra, Brady, etc). They did, I just didn't detail it. And I know that Caleb and Brooke are related, but at this point in the family tree, it's pretty distant.
Edit: It was just pointed out to me that Jace and Zoe are also related. LOL, dammit, I forgot about that. He might need to have a new imprint. Ah well. I'm not writing his story so I won't give it too much thought.

Gabe and Lilly Q&A
THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS TO THE LAST CHAPTER OF STORMY.
Here are some of the questions I was asked by readers regarding Gabe and Lilly.
1) When does Lilly accept Gabe as her friend?
LOL, he's a Black. It didn't take him that long to soften her attitude towards him.
2) When do they start to date?
Leah said Lilly couldn't date until after she was sixteen and Gabe took her to her prom (which most people go to when they are around seventeenish). So sometime around that period.
3) Will Gabe have a pack of his own and when will Lilly join that?
No, Gabe never has his own pack and Lilly stays in Nate's. As Leah said, it would be too distracting for them to be in the same mindset. And once Jace Uley becomes Alpha, Nate and Gabe's Alpha powers will go dormant like Sam and Jake's did.
4) Does Lilly have to stop phasing to have kids?
Yes. But unlike Leah, it doesn't take Lilly years to become fertile again. As Nate was made for Meena, Gabe and Lilly were made for each other. In other words, she was made to be with an immortal. Once she stops phasing, she would be able to have kids fairly quickly and...lol, let's just say Gabe has some pretty powerful sperm. (He's an Alpha, after all.) Pregnancy would have happened fast once they decided to have children.
5) Did Gabe and Lilly have twins?
No, Caleb is a few years older than Elijah.
6) Did Gabe/Lilly's sons eventually phase later on in life?
Yes. They joined Jace's pack. Caleb became his cousin's beta.
7) How did the Cullens react to his imprinting and breaking up with Tanya? What happened to Tanya after the breakup?
The Cullens lived with Jake and Ness for years and saw imprinting firsthand. They also were never crazy about Tanya and Gabe together so they were fine with Gabe's imprinting, though it put some strain on their friendship with Tanya.
As for Tanya, I can see her eventually settling down with another vampire, which would ease the tension between the families. In fact, before I decided to have Gabe and Tanya hook up, I had asked a fellow writer, Nicollette Knight, if I could use an OC from her Tanya story. Tanya was going to show up in my stories with Jesse...an incredibly sexy nomadic vampire. But then I got the idea for Gabe and Tanya and nixed the idea. (Nic's story is called Rising Moon if you want to check it out...you may need to read her Kate story first, which is also a good read. They were some of the first fan fics I ever read.)
8) Where did Gabe & Lilly decide to live? Did they stay on the rez or stay away from it like Leah did?
They ended up with the Cullens.
9) I was wondering since Lilly is part Clearwater if the Alpha gene would be quite strong?
Meena (daughter of Alpha) + Nate (Alpha) is greater than Lilly (daughter of Beta) + Gabe (Alpha). Gabe and Lilly's kids would be incredibly powerful. Meena and Nate's children are infinitely more so.
10) When did Lilly decide to leave Nate's pack? How was she with the pack?
Lilly is Nate's cousin. She would have been treated with nothing but affection and respect. When she got old enough (I'd say eighteen when she left for college), she would have "retired" like Jacob did. They're both still active wolves, but they aren't in a pack.
11) When Lilly was old enough to go to college, Gabe followed her... does that mean he enrolled into college again and earned his second bachelor's?
He got his Master's. But like the other Cullens, I'm sure they both went back to school throughout their existence to earn different degrees.

Strange Imprint Sneak Peek
Seth's POV
I held out my hand to her. “I’m Seth and you’re Kayla Marie Adams, right?”
“That’s right,” she said with a smile that beamed and my breath momentarily caught in my throat. Damn…this girl was beautiful. She took my hand and said, “Wow, you have really warm skin. Embry’s the same way. He said it’s from a genetic condition some people have on your rez. Mind if I sit there?” She looked at the empty seat next to me.
“Uh…sure,” I replied. Real smooth, dumbass. Make sure you continue to wow her with your stellar conversation.
Kayla sat down and I caught a whiff of her coconut scent. She bent over to put her satchel on the floor and I found myself leaning with her so I could continue to breathe her in. She sat up and I jerked back in place a little too quickly. I saw her glance at me with a frown before her face turned to polite indifference.
“So Seth, Embry tells me you’re his half brother.”
“Yeah, I just found out a little while ago.”
“He said you two don’t talk much,” Kayla stated, looking at me in disapproval. I squirmed in my seat like a chastised schoolboy. Thanks Em for throwing me under a friggin’ bus.

Background Information
If you haven't read the latest chapters of Stormy or Absent, this will contain spoilers.
Here's the future I have planned for Gracie and Ryan.
Ryan gets his job back at the Bureau of Indian Affairs (that's the official name of the government agency by the way...not me being politically incorrect by saying "Indian" - lol, just had to point that out because someone got offended once when I wrote Ryan worked for Indian Affairs). Anyway...inspired by Gracie, Ryan also enrolls in the University of Maryland where he gets his Master's in Public Policy. He eventually works his way up and becomes a high ranking government official. Ryan does a lot of good, improving the quality of living on reservations across the States.
Gracie ends up getting her doctorate. She gets a job preserving Native American artifacts at the Smithsonian and becomes a renowned expert in the field of American Indian culture.
Ryan and Gracie eventually get married and have two children. Jaxon (Jax) is the oldest. They also have a little girl, Brooke, a few years later. Originally I had it in my head that Brooke gets imprinted on by Gabe and Lilly's oldest son, Caleb, but then I remembered Lilly and Gracie are cousins. Still...I think by the time Caleb and Brooke make an appearance, they'd be fifth or sixth cousins. The line would be distant enough by then that they could marry without having problems. LOL, I'm sure the idea would still creep people out, but that's how I envisioned it. And I liked that Gracie and Gabe's children eventually fell in love with each other, given how close Gracie and Gabe are. (And can you imagine Ryan's reaction if Gabe's son fell in love with his daughter?)
Regarding Gracie's other son, Ryan keeps in contact with Tristen and Charlotte, but Gracie doesn't meet Brayden again until he's eighteen. They become friendly, but he considers Tristen and Charlotte his only parents. Brayden has a good life and becomes a professional football player. He never phases.

Strange Imprint Song: Chapter 1
Strange by Tori Amos. Pretty fitting, especially if you look at it from Hayley's perspective.
Seth's Story
Edit: I used a different actor for Seth because BooBoo looks really young and I wanted someone a bit older. I tried to find someone who was an older version of him. Girl on the left is Kayla Marie. Girl on the right is Hayley.

Stormy Q&A
*SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE LATEST STORMY CHAPTER*
I keep getting asked why Gabe had a connection to Gracie's baby. Gabe always gets a strong reaction out of people, lol, though it's not always good. He also loves children and kids react to him. The first time you ever read about Gabe in Early Imprint, he was using his powers on a little girl, planting images of puppies in her head because she was scared and he wanted to comfort her. Kids are drawn to him, even ones that aren't born yet. ;)
