My Destined Werewolf Mate

Zeus's POV:

This place...It's...so murky! Everything seems hazy right here... It really feels so strange, but...where am I?

I have been going through a roller coaster ride of my life. As soon as I opened my eyes, I found myself standing in an absurd unknown place. The sunrays were mild with a pinkish white horizon comprising above. The whole area looked a bit hazy with mystic fog engulfing the entire surrounding. I was dressed up in the exact same outfit that I was wearing the day I faced the vicious encounter to protect Eva...

Eva! That's right! As far I can retrieve it, I lost her consciousness lying in her soft arms...Her teary eyes the last thing I witnessed with my blurry vision. I remember I was attacked with wolfsbane by that sneaky bastard. It was indeed one of the severe conflicts I have battled in my long life.

But I can't relate to my current situation! I should be resting on my bed surrounded by my family! But...But why am I standing here all alone in such a desolated place? Why is no one around me? Why--

Suddenly, my heart started pounding hard, swooned in fear. The sudden loneliness drew a harsh assumption in my mind which shook me from my core!

Am I already dead? Is this what the afterlife or divine realm looks like? Is that why I am alone here?

My head started to feel dizzy. My forehead was covered with cold terrified perspiration as I flipped my soft hair bangs up. I was frustrated, frightened, and annoyed with every possible emotion running wild in my mind!

How can my life end in such a futile way? There were so many things I didn't accomplish in life... I didn't obtain my vengeance from our rival Lupos! I didn't get to lead my pack in every safe and secured possible way... 

And...Eva...

All of a sudden, my dark sad eyes were swelled up with tears that rolled down my quivering chin.

I...I didn't even get to tell...how much she meant for me... She had no one by her side...How could I leave her alone? What will I do... if something adverse happens to her? How will I protect her? Damn!

Wiping out my eyes and clenching hard my inner strength, I started running aimlessly in the forward direction. My limbs were wobbling, but I mustered up my desperation. I was frantically glancing around me to get rid of that place as soon as possible as it was making me sick!

No...I can't...I mustn't die just like that...I can never lose my life so easily! I am the true blood alpha of Romano! I can't die with a regretful life!

"Hey! Is someone here? Where am I? Why am I here? Who brought me here?" All panicked, I screamed my lungs out rushing in a zig-zag way, desperately glancing around me. There was not a single trace of any living being beside me which made me further distressed. My dim ray of hope was slowly fading away occupying with a wave of petrifying loneliness.

The worst realization was yet to come. None of my supernatural powers were working in this absurd place. I tried hard to utilize my strength but...strangely, I was feeling extremely weak! It was even difficult for me to keep continue running that eventually I halted and started to pant hard... My throat was choked in fear while fleeing amidst the mist!

"GET ME OUT OF HERE! I WANNA GO BACK! I HAVE TO GO BACK! SHE NEEDS ME! I CAN'T LEAVE HER ALONE! THERE IS NO ONE TO STAY HER SIDE...SHE...SHE WOULD TRY TO KILL HERSELF AGAIN IF I LEAVE HER TOO!...NO! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO ME! I...NEED... HER!! HELP ME! SOMEONE HELP ME OUT OF HERE!"

I was almost on the verge of tears as I screamed again desperately with a crooked voice. I can't believe such an awful situation was ongoing that made the strongest, powerful alpha like me feeling absolutely worthless and incapable! 

I was slowly draining out of the little amount of hope which was making me keep going through that drastic state. Covering my face beneath my arms, I broke down in tears helplessly... Sadly, whenever I shut my eyes, all I could gaze at was Eva's warm and precious smile... The thought of being torn apart from her was breaking my heart into uncountable pieces... Will I never get to see her again? Will I never get to embrace her again? The solicitudes suddenly started to make me feel absolutely breathless...

"ZEUS? MY CHILD?"

Suddenly, a miraculous event happened to me when I was on my edge of a distressed state. The husky, gentle voice sounded extremely familiar to me and the most surprising fact, I know the voice too well but it's been a really long time since I got to hear it last...

Frantically, I turned behind entirely covered up in sweat and tears. My dark eyes immediately swirled wider as I was extremely shocked, surprised!

In front of me, a kind and warm veteran lady was standing, looking at me with her eyes filled with love. She was the exact same woman I loved the most in my life and helplessly regretted every day for being incapable of protecting her... My precious Grandmother!

"Gr-Granny? Is...Is that you? Are...you really standing before me?" I was stuttering in awe, mumbling in an unclear tone. 

It was a surreal state for me to believe! My grandmother... She was murdered before my own eyes more than 100 years ago while I was still a feeble, weak but happy child from inside... The regret...the pain in my heart caused me to transform into a ruthless cold Alpha who knew nothing but vengeance before I met Eva who caused my frozen heart to beat again...

But...why and how my granny is standing before me?

"It's been a long time since I got to see you, my child... You were so tiny back then... Come...give your granny a big hug." She pulled out her arms while looking at me with her teary eyes and a soft warm smile. She looked the exact same as her last day...

I had no doubt left anymore! She was indeed my beloved grandmother who loved me like no one else, not even like my own parents...I started to sob bitterly with a brink of happiness rushing in my heart. But a thought struck my mind again! 

She had already died a long time ago...So...it means...I am already dead too?
