When Zoe Simmons lost her father, her pain awoke her beast with in. Turned out, she was a werewolf/lycan hybrid. But how could that be? She spent her whole life getting bullied due to being wolfless. But now, she has a beast, a mate, and a new purpose in life. Where will her journey take her? Who was her mother? Didn't Lycans go extinct? Alpha Xavier has made many tough decisions. Some affected his mate more than he would've liked. Can he finally get his fated mate back to forgive him? And how far is he willing to go to get that forgiveness?
View More>Zoe and Xavier were done having breakfast when a boy, a few years younger than Xavier walked in, wiping greasy hands on his dirty apron. "Morning everyone." He said cheerfully.His father immediately got up and started getting coffee ready for his son while the boy nodded at the guests before going to his room to change. He returned a few minutes later and received the steaming cup of coffee from his father before taking his seat at the breakfast table."The car is all fixed up and ready to drive many miles." The boy said to Zoe and Xavier."What was wrong with it?" Xavier asked keenly, trying to read the boy and his intentions."The electronics were fried, among other things. Happens in modified older models." The boy said and started buttering a slice of fresh bread. Zoe got up to get the coat she was wearing last night from the guest room.Before anyone could say anything else, the old man placed a piece of paper in front of Xavier, who looked quizzically at the old m
>The dinner was delicious. Zoe quietly sipped on her mushroom soup, but Xavier looked everywhere for clues. He had seen many shady people in his life and this old man was very shady. A lot of things he said did not match what Xavier was seeing around the cabin. The place was too well-kept for an old man's cabin in the woods. "So, your son's a mechanic?" Xavier started with small talk."Yes." The old man gave a short answer and focused on the toasted cheesy garlic bread on his plate. "Why settle in the woods where rarely any car passes? Why not get a job at some workshop in the town?" Xavier pushed casually."The road busier than you imagine. This is our family cabin. My grandfather built it. My ancestors were gatherers. Woods worked in our favor for generations. It was only honorable to stay." The old man did not meet Xavier's eyes while answering and Xavier found that odd. Usually, liars don't look in the eyes while talking.Xavier let Spike sniff out any suspicious s
>Zoe held on to Xavier's hand as tightly as she could and let him lead her.Xavier was worried about Zoe but he had never been more grateful for a thunderstorm before in his life. Moon Goddess was on his side. He could feel it. And was ready to take full advantage of the given chance.The old man led them through a barely existent path in the woods using the light from his torch. The rain was resuming a sprinkle."How far is the cabin?!" Xavier asked, worried for Zoe. She was holding his hand so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Any normal person wouldn't have been able to take the power of fear coursing through her. Each time the thunder sounded, she shuddered. Zoe was trying her best not to cry. She didn't want to be seen as weak but her panic attack was inevitable. She just wanted to be indoors when she finally lost it."Just around the bend in the path." The old man answered without looking back. Xavier rolled his eyes. He was still wary of the old man. "Yeah, w
>"Are you okay?" Xavier asked for the nth time that night and received the same response, "Yes, I am fine. Stop asking that.""Just checking." He shrugged."Don't." Zoe rolled her eyes and huffed.He knew that for the first time on this journey, she was less mad at him and more mad at the weather.As they were stranded in the middle of nowhere with no idea how to call for help, the clear evening sky had turned cloudy and it had begun pouring in the matter of half an hour. Zoe and Xavier had taken refuge in the car. Zoe sat with crossed arms, occasionally sighing at the weather in the driver seat and Xavier burned the battery of his useless phone while playing offline games.They had no idea how long the weather was to continue and they couldn't go anywhere in that weather without being soaked to the bones. Which was why, they had no choice but to spend the night in the car.It had been a long day, eating on the road and driving non-stop. Zoe didn't know when she felt slee
>Zoe woke Xavier up early the next day and took breakfast to-go. She was eager to get to the coordinates left by her mother. She was desperate to find meaning in her life. She needed to find a purpose.They only stopped at a gas station to refuel and took lunch to-go before getting back on the road. Xavier was worried for Zoe but he was hoping that whatever was awaiting them in Kansas would help Zoe the way she needed. The journey was monotonous and silent. Spike was eager to converse with Dahlia but Dahlia had yet to accept his mind-link. Dahlia was eager to know more about her mate but she was loyal to her human and if Zoe was that upset with him, he must've hurt her quite badly. Which made me a little mad at him too. Mates are supposed to respect, love, and protect each other. They are supposed to have each other's back, but Zoe's mate had abandoned her and chosen someone else.Sun was about to set, sending orange and golden hues to dance across the sky. Flocks of bird
>Zoe had been distant with me since we started the road trip. Who could blame her? I didn't. I blamed my bad decisions for putting such a wall between us that it was going to be hard to break it down and get to her. But I was nothing if I wasn't relentless. We had no idea what to expect in Kansas City. I would've asked someone to fly in and take a look before us just for Zoe's safety. But, I needed to stay out of touch for the sake of keeping my pack safe from the consequences of my actions. An Alpha was nothing without his pack. But, a wolf was nothing without his mate. To be a stronger Alpha and protect my people, I needed to be a better mate. And that meant doing everything I could to seek Zoe's forgiveness and hopefully take her back to my pack that had been without a leader for so long. I knew leaving Gramps in charge was as good as it could get. She was resourceful and wise but the world was changing. Awful things were going on. I was hoping that this road tr
