Some people suggested I took the Journey, that I travelled without direction, led only by my intuition.
We didn't know how we were paired, yet many believed that we were destined to find a soul mate - even though some never did - and that Fate or some other great force would eventually make sure we'd cross paths, if only we would follow our instincts.
Rhys was considering taking the Journey the weeks before he met Riley; he was thinking about closing his eyes, pointing to an open map and heading in the direction of where his finger fell. And if during his travels he felt like changing direction, he would.
That wouldn't work for me for two reasons: one - as the Alpha of the Silver Bullets I shouldn't be away from my pack for long so this was not a good choice even if two - I hadn't already recognized my mate.
I often pondered on why he of all people would be chosen by any divine being to be my soul mate and I still couldn't come up with even a vaguely logical answer.
The mate was supposed to respect you and that man patronized me; they were supposed to provide comfort and support in harsh times and he provided only criticism; they were supposed to show you love, to act as if you were the most important person in the world, and I was sure he didn't even like me.
