    Summary

    john mactavish, prince of diplomacy and youngest son of the highland king, has never once left the walls of his castle. when political tensions with the lothian borders force his father to send him south as royal envoy, john is certain he can manage the journey alone. his father is equally certain he cannot, and assigns him an escort — one simon riley, the marquis's most trusted knight, an englishman in scottish service with a skull mask, a lifetime of bad experiences with noblemen, and zero trust for the privileged son of a highland king who has never once had to earn anything.

    they despise each other almost immediately.

    but the road south is long and the forests are dangerous, and somewhere between a bandit ambush, a small inn, and the sight of wounds that should have been treated weeks ago, john starts to see past the mask. and simon starts to see past the carriage.

    Summary

    “Missed me,” Ghost crackles in his ear. Warm, teasing. A tone that Soap is almost certain is reserved for him.

    Soap scoffs. "Prove it."

    “Aw,” Ghost tuts. “Don’t trust me?”

    No one I trust more, Sir. He doesn’t say it. Not that he isn’t sure Ghost already knows; if he’s even half as inhumanly perceptive as everyone gives him credit for, then he has to know, has to feel that tangible presence orbiting between them. (The direct acknowledgement of this entity feels too unshakably taboo. A point of no return that takes the shape of something gnarly; a feral elephant in the room that threatens to maul one or both of them down if addressed.)

    “Bastard,” he grumbles instead. Wonders if his voice is as thick with affection over the com as it sounds spoken aloud. Would it matter, if it was?

    Summary

    Soap feels a little nervous, always does with a new specimen, especially one who presents a whole helping of the unknown. He glances down again at the manifest in front of him:

    Specimen 22147.
    Species: Unknown
    Appearance: Subject to change
    Height: Varies
    Language: Unknown
    Threat Level: High
    Name: Unknown, assigned name 'Ghost' during retrieval

    Well Ghost, Soap thinks as he stands with the crack of popping joints and faces the doors of the mooring ship, welcome to Knoll.

    Summary

    John MacTavish has a bit of a problem.

    Sure, he has a good life: an attractive mate, a nice house, a solid job. He's an alpha doing everything alphas are expected to do. Except for one thing...

    He only enjoys being with other alphas. He needs it. He craves it.

    After a year of using a notorious alpha-for-alpha hookup app, John matches with a man who is about to disrupt everything he thought he knew about himself, the world, and what it means to be different.
