But that doesn't mean I'm not up for a little distraction with an attractive coworker.

So when I saw him back in town scoping out real estate for his art gallery, I was shocked - and so damn hopeful I couldn’t think straight. I’ll do anything it takes to stand up for him - even if it costs me my job.

I'm not sure about anything anymore. Except him. I tried so hard to join the military, but they didn't want me. Asthma. So I settled for being a military contractor instead. I've done well at it, too. But this last deployment...it was hard. Really hard. And I'm not sure I want to go through something like that again. I've got a friend - James. Younger man.

But I have another chance to do what I do best - make a difference in the Army. Seeing Teddy again takes my breath away. He wants us to be friends. I want...well. I want whatever he wants, whatever he needs. I’m not sure that he can want an alpha like me again - too much history between us, too much time since I broke his heart.

When Liam and I were paired together on the Mates.com app, I really thought it might go somewhere. The chemistry between us was sizzling, but he never called me back.

It’s reconnecting with my best friend that really throws me for a loop, though. I was head over heels with him when I left, but he never seemed to return my feelings. It doesn’t take me too long to figure out that the sparks are still there - and that he feels them, too.
