[Siren Everlasting Classic ManLove: Erotic Romance, Alternative, Paranormal, Shape-shifter, Vampires/Werewolves, MM, HEA] John doesn't want a mate. He hopes he is one of the lucky warriors to not have someone waiting for him. It's too much hassle. Too much pain. He can see the happiness his brothers are having after discovering their mates, but John doesn't see that for himself. Not when there is so much work to be done. Finding Chris working as a cook in the highway bar he barely pays any attention to was as much of a surprise as realizing the man's scent and body call to John on a primal level that refuses to be ignored. Someone else refuses to ignore them as well. After biting his mate, marking him, John cannot stay. He will only hurt Chris again, but in his absence, a familiar enemy, and someone entirely new, decide to pay Chris a visit, to threaten and intimidate him, proving that the mate of a warrior can never truly be free.
