Unknown POV Present Day Since my birthday, three years ago today. The day that I lost the people I loved most. I have vowed to find her, my Allison, my mate. By now she would be old enough to recognize me as her mate. For 3 years, I searched high and low for her. The only shred of hope I held of her being alive was picking up her scent that day by the stream. It was faint, but I will never forget it. I had been officially sworn in to take over as Alpha of the Rivermoon Pack. But with my wolf, Apollo, constantly pacing in my mind, restless without his mate, I had to appoint my Beta and childhood best friend, Chad, to lead the pack for now while I searched for her. I know how selfish it is of me to put her before the pack. As an Alpha, you are always supposed to put the pack first
