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

The doctor eyed Marc. “Alpha Clavier, does Alpha Thierry need a sedative?”


Marc spoke up, “Alpha Thierry does not need a sedative. I need to see Colin. Please, can I see him?”


“I have to test you for MRSA and Pseudomonas, both can cause severe infections in surgical patients. You’ll have to wear hospital supplied disposable scrubs, paper booties and a surgical mask and hat to see him. There is a shower outside the ICU with antibacterial soap. Take a shower and put on the scrubs. By the time you finish, he should have been transferred from recovery to the ICU.” The doctor swabbed Marc’s nose and mouth. “I’ll expedite the labs.”


“I’ll strip down completely if that makes it possible for me to go to him. He must be frightened and think I deserted him.”


The doctor left with the swabs to go to the lab. Marc paced back and forth waiting for the results of the tests for infection.
