Getting drunk and trying to dry hump his best friend in the parking lot of a seedy biker bar is just about the most cringeworthy thing Chris has ever done. Being rejected is the most painful.
He just doesn’t understand.
The sexual tension between him and Mick is palpable. It’s always been there, just under the surface, and Chris was so sure that if he just made a move Mick would respond.
But he didn’t.
He pushed him away.
After ten years on the same black ops team, having each other’s backs and being there for each other every step of the way, Chris doesn’t know how they’re supposed to get past this.
Mick is furious. Chris has run away, heading off on a solo mission to only God knows where, without giving Mick a chance to explain.
He’s been gone for over a year.
Did Chris really expect him to take advantage of him when he was drunk off his ass and barely able to stand?
What kind of person would that make Mick?
Chris has never given even the slightest indication that he wants to act on the tension between them, and letting him do so while drunk would be a grave violation of trust.
Mick wishes that Chris would grow the fuck up and talk to him.
But when Chris finally does call him, all of Mick’s hopes and dreams for a future with his best friend are shattered. Chris has bonded to an omega, and he needs Mick to come play bodyguard.
Mick doesn’t have it in him to say no.
When Chris’s omega goes into heat and Chris is nowhere to be found, things get complicated…
