Many obstacles stand in the way of baronet’s son Warrick Synclaire being with his best friend, Thomas Smythe. Same-sex love is illegal in early 20th Century England, and Warrick is heading for Canada while Thomas is destined for the military college at Sandhurst. Warrick isn't sure he can bear the separation. However, the day before Warwick leaves, Thomas persuades him to see a fortune teller. The old gypsy woman’s warnings fail to scare Warwick, but another gypsy, Nicolae, by turns intrigues, arouses, and terrifies him. That night, Nicolae breaks into Warwick’s bedchamber, bedding then biting him. Warwick, unable to process the encounter, convinces himself it was just a bad dream and sails off to Canada to start a new life. In Canada, Warrick renews his acquaintance with Fox Sullivan, who he first met during the war. Soon the two become lovers, but for Warwick, the relationship is purely physical. Thomas still owns his heart. When he can stand their separation no longer, Warrick returns to his ancestral home in Kent, determined to reunite with Thomas, who now has a lover of his own. But the encounter with Nicolae years earlier changed Warwick considerably. Every full moon he turns into a ravenous creature, which seems able to rule Warwick’s life even during the daytime. Determined to win over Warrick, Fox sells his medical practice and sails to England. But is he too late to save the man he loves?

Destiny's End

Fox rested his hand on my knee, and his fingers squeezed it rhythmically. My cock began to take notice.


“My rooms are behind my office, which is just down the road,” he said. “Come spend the night with me.”


I struggled to focus my gaze on his face. It was an attractive face, but I should warn him. “My heart belongs to Another!” I told him loftily, then spoiled it by hiccoughing.


“That’s quite all right. Your friend Thomas can have your heart. I just want your body.” He waggled his eyebrows and gave me a droll look, and I burst into laughter.


Fox took me home, propping me up as I staggered every foot of the way. 14: Fox Sullivan


Fox sat naked and cross-legged at the foot of the bed, watching as Warrick Synclaire slept. Fox was one of the largest members of his pack, but at six foot three, Warrick towered over him, and it had taken Fox quite a bit of time and energy to wrestle Warrick out of his clothes.
