Sam didn't attack Emily because she rejected him. This happened when Sam was still a fairly new shifter and didn't possess adequate control of his powers. What happened was Sam had gotten VERY upset - he worried that he might not be able to control himself. So, Sam stepped away from Emily so he wouldn't be near her - not understanding, Emily ran back up to him to be near him again. However, this was the moment that Sam accidentally shifted. The shifters take up more mass when they shift to wolves... meaning they suddenly become enormous. So, unfortunately Emily got all up in Sam's space - and when he shifted.. and became bigger... he accidentally scratched her. Now, I'm NOT excusing Sam for what happened. Although this was an accident, he permanently disfigured Emily forever.
