Seven years has passed since the day that Sawyer Evans pushed his mate away, and though all that time, not a day goes by where he hasn't felt the pure regret of turning Sage away. It took everything in him to watch from a distance as she slowly picked her life up and graduated from high school and moved on. In that time, Sawyer had done nothing but train and build his way up to becoming a great Beta for his pack. As time passes the longing that he feels for the lost of his mate only intensified, and because of that he has become a duller shell of himself and doing what needs to be done.
