It's not all about sex just so you know. In the case of what happened in this story he became basically a guardian. He even says when he explains imprinting that you become what ever they need, a protecter, a mate or a friend. As her life was on the line she needed a protecter.

Think of it in a more real world situation. You and your wife have a child, a close friend of the family choses to be involved with the up bringing of that child and is asked to be god father or mother.

This does not by any means mean that they later on in life want to be in a relationship with that person. It just just means they care a great deal about them and are willing to do what is needed to make sure they have a good life.
