Daunting

Intense feelings were swirling around in Kaizen's head right now.

It wasn't the first time that because of his carelessness, someone who was under his protection, died while on his watch.

He would be damned before he allowed history to repeat again or show that he hadn't learned from his mistakes. 

Kaizen remembered it like it was yesterday and it was the first time his mentor allowed him to take the lead on a mission and he failed so horribly.

They had been surrounded by enemy wolfbeasts and he had lost control and given over to his bloodlust.

Back then he was even worse at controlling it and he ended out at anyone and anything who came too close to him.

Female wolfbeasts were rare and don't live very long. He was charged with taking one across the borders to meet with her mate.

Sad to say, she didn't make it. He took his eyes off her for just a second and that was all it took for the enemy to grab her.
