    Summary

    “Someone got too enthusiastic, huh?” III teases, pushing down a twinge at the evidence that Vessel is a taken man. It figures. He’s too good looking and sweet not to be.

    “My boyfriend likes to, y’know.” Vessel gestures at the marks adorning his throat. There really are a lot of them, and the longer III looks, the less he sees humor in the situation.

    “Mark his territory?”

    “You make him sound like a dog pissing on a tree.”

    “More like a dog gnawing on a bone,” III jokes, but his heart isn’t in it. “You have to admit that this is pretty intense."

    “He’s just being an alpha about it."

    III wants his concern to be rooted in misplaced jealousy, but that sounds like it was taken from his mum’s old playbook.

    When Sleep leads III to Vessel, he can't help but wish for more than a platonic pack bond. Unfortunately, Vessel already has an alpha. An insecure, jealous, rude little alpha, that clearly has no idea how to act or treat his packmates.

    III never used to believe in the competitive posturing his fellow alphas put on, but maybe what II needs is for a real alpha to show him how it's done.

    Summary

    "Even though the world burned outside, Rook knew Joseph Seed wasn't a real prophet; if he was, he would have at least been able to blink before Rook tore a knife from his boot and sliced through his own throat.

    An insane, delirious grin choked him as he was hit by the hilarity of all of this starting in a--

    --church doors slammed behind the officers."

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Deputy Rook did not come home to Hope County expecting to play center stage in a cult's Holy War. But dead men aren't staying dead in the Valley, and Rook's has to suffer several nosebleeds before he can remember why. But when he does? Oh, he might just save the world. (Or at least save the person who will save the world.)

    And he's theirs, too.

    Or, the story of how Vessel meets the other members.

    Summary

    Over time, they begin to grow tired. They wake later, start yawning earlier, and get less done during the days. Vessel sees their exhaustion and irritation grow and knows it’s almost time. He remembers the way he seemed to get worn down, too, until he could no longer leave his bed – he hadn’t exactly feared death, then, but had almost expected its quiet knock on his door. Now that he knows it’s not death coming to call, but transfiguration, he can make preparations with a heart less heavy.

     

    or – II, III, and IV are transformed.
