Why can't everyone just accept that I'm a broken f**king wolf and be done with it?

Connor, beta wolf and second for the Davis Pack, could hold his own in any fight. He was a fair man, who dealt with all people equally, accepting who they were, and helping them where he could. His larger than average size meant that most other wolf shifters accepted his ways, but deep inside Connor always knew he was broken. Which wasn't a problem, until he met his mate at a pack get-together, and realized his 'differences' could impact someone else.

I knew what I'd been signing up for. I told Connor I would wait, and that I understood.

Alpha Leyden was a typical alpha wolf shifter - he fought when he had to, cared for his pack, and enjoyed intimacies with anyone willing who crossed his path. It was the wolf way, and he never saw anything wrong with the way he lived his life. Until, one night he scented a huge man who seemed immune to his appeal - a man who when confronted with who they were to each other, ran away.

I still intend on biting you, Connor, and I want for you to bite me. So we'll be mates, regardless of whatever else happens,

Connor was determined to stay away from Leyden for his own good. But when he learns Leyden is in trouble, he can't ignore it and goes to help. The two men came to an agreement, and Connor accepts Leyden's bite. But a lot of pack wolves didn't agree with Connor and Leyden's new reality. Were Connor and Leyden strong enough together to make the positive changes they both believe in, or would the old ways win out in the end?

Not Even Close is an MM Fated mates story between a demisexual wolf shifter and an alpha. The first 14,000 words of this story was written for an MM Goodreads Anthology back in 2015. Forty thousand words have been added for those readers who wanted to know what happened next.
