The journey of enlightenment (JOE) needs to be worked out - IN WRITING (says my guide).  

"Okay then, let's do this!!!", I finally say with fists raised to the sky.

So, what are you really in for, my dear reader?  Possibly a phrenetic mess.  This is not a story.  It is a story destroyer.  Be warned as it might affect your very perception of reality.  This is a part of yoga.  It is the inquiry aspect and meant to lead toward Full Awakening, Truth Realization, Self Realization aka, as some call it, Enlightenment. 

It will read differently in each chapter because this is like a personal diary of a process, however, it is also being written with you in mind.

Each "chapter" will be an entry, diary style, of me trying to work out what is True.  This is a process Jed McKenna (the inspiration of this endeavor) calls "autolysis".    This will be happening in real time and not with a bunch of editing.  I don't know what it will look like.  Maybe a reality show in words?  We shall see.  Wish me luck.

I flinched at his harsh voice, tears forming in my eyes. "For the world, you will be my wife, but in reality, you are nothing to me." My last hope of mending this relationship shattered into pieces. "Listen very carefully: never dare to raise your voice at me. Understood?" I nodded slowly. "And only answer me if I ask you something. Is that clear?" His tone was dangerously low. Feeling scared, I nodded without looking at him. "Look at me when I'm talking to you." He put his finger under my chin and raised my head. His eyes were full of arrogance and cruelty. My vision blurred with each passing second. His grip on my chin was strong and painful. "Now answer," he ordered in a husky voice. "Ye-Yes," I replied in my shaky voice. ☆_____☆ A girl who believes in true love and soulmates. A boy who has lost his faith in love and soulmates. He is fire. She is ice.

Instead I was the Alpha that locked his mate away for a crime that I didn't even know if he actually committed, I thought about rejecting him because he was a man and I'm not gay and I refused to give into the bond and love him back. I felt insecure around Raiden because he's a feline. I was insecure because he's stronger, faster, more dominant and I hated how much my body gave into him - how much my body wanted to submit to him because I'm an Alpha and Alphas don't submit. So I caved and I tainted our bond, I hurt him beyond repair and when I just couldn't deny the bond anymore, I found out just how hard it would actually be to gain his trust back - to get him to want me again. Our bond ended with my mistake but our story began with my redemption. ----- Original had 80 chapters Original started - 9 | 4 | 2022 Original completed - 10 | 20 | 2022 Rewrite will have 100 chapters Rewrite started - 4 | 29 | 2023 Will be completed - 12 | 31 | 2023 #1 FELINE #1 LEOPARD #1 INTERNALCONFLICT #1 INTERNALSTRUGGLE #2 LOVE #3 ALPHA #3 STORY #3 MATEBOND #3 THEWATTYS #8 MXM #9 REDEMPTION
