Gabriel Martin has hope. Three of the Alphas on the council have found mates in the past few years. Returning to New York from Atlanta, he comes across a human who has been raped in an alleyway. The human is his mate, Kane Brady.<br><br>Kane has been teaching at the local high school and refuses to rubber stamp the education of their star basketball players -- almost paying the price with his life. He’s unusual as he’s a human Omega but he can’t be intimate with Gabriel because of his horrific experience.<br><br>It’s up to the Alphas and their Mates to help Kane recover and accept all that it is to be with Gabriel.

Marking Kane

Gabriel started to move with long sure strokes. “Are you okay?”


“Don’t stop. You’re hitting me just right.”


“When I’m close, I’m going to bite your shoulder and make my mark. It may hurt in the beginning but after tonight, it shouldn’t hurt you again.” A few more strokes and Gabriel was ready. “Baby, I’m going to bite you now.”


Gabriel’s teeth elongated. He bit down as he spilled his seed into his Mate’s channel.


“Gabriel, oh Gabriel, I love you so much.”


He felt the knot form. He stayed on top of Kane, trying not to crush him.


“Is that the knot?” Kane snuggled into Gabriel’s shoulder.


“Yes, that’s the knot.” Gabriel licked at his mark to wipe away the four drops of blood that came from his bite.


“I came. I didn’t know if I could. I loved it. I was so afraid that I wouldn’t. I love you so much. I didn’t want to disappoint you.”


“The gift the gods gave you should begin to manifest themselves soon.”
