When his brother turns from him, Victor Creed's lust for power takes him to a young feral mutant named Beatrice Crow. Rescuing her from a cage,he forms a bond with her. A mostly unspoken, Primal bond. Things don't go so smoothly at first, but with time they find they have more in common than they thought. Can she fill the hole Logan left? Or make it bigger?

Victor Creed gets sidetracked on a mission by a lovely piece of collateral. This is a rewrite of Volume I the Octoberverse (originally published in May 2009), and remains rated for foul language, violence, and sexual content.
