Alpha Marc Thierry was used to the North Woods of Minnesota, so his elevation to third on the loup garou council necessitated a move to a Gramacy section of New York City. On Monday nights, his housekeeper is off and Marc doesn’t like casseroles. He orders Chinese and gets a musical voice on the line that calls to him. To his delight and surprise, the guy on the phone delivers his food and is his destined mate. Unfortunately for Marc, Colin Callahan thinks the only reason Marc could want him is biological -- he has to like his mate. Colin has a scarred face and thinks no-one could love him as he is. Can Marc convince him otherwise?

Scarred Mate

As soon as Colin finished dressing he came downstairs to be greeted by Marc with a hug and a scorching kiss. Sean and Ian giggled, and Colin shot his friends a self-satisfied grin.


They first toured the downstairs. The back of the house had huge glass windows overlooking the lake. Colin hadn’t noticed a door to the greenhouse tucked in the corner where there were fresh vegetables growing in huge pots until Marc pointed it out to him. He opened the greenhouse door and felt the warm, moist air.


Marc said, “We use hot water that continually circulates through the house to heat the greenhouse and to supplement the house’s heating system. Black lights give the plants artificial sunlight when snow covers the roof.”
