Chapter 111: Tracking Down her

I knelt on the side of the road, numb with despair.

"Alpha." Joseph was tense and cautious like he was approaching a wild animal. Had he witnessed everything?

Had he seen my mate leave me? After almost a year, did she forget me? No, I think. Maybe the potion’s work. Her memories were messing up or at least I presume.

It hurt. It hurt so unbelievably badly.

Joseph nudged me with his foot. "Get off the road before someone sideswipes you, Alpha."

That sounded like a positive outcome. Maybe if they hit me hard enough, this pain would be over. I just knelt where I was, ignoring him. Nothing he could say would change anything.

Joseph just stood and watched me for a long moment.

"So, uh, what are we going to do, Alpha?"

I don't know.

As the months had stretched to almost a year, I finally met her again. For the first time in that time, he was pushing me with all his strength for control, and I wasn't sure I wanted to just let go and give it to him. I could try more. I had tried for so long.
