Calder has been fascinated with Kari ever since Kari confessed he was the one who caused the death of Oscar, one of the council members who were abusing carriers. Kari is slippery and has kept his distance, so Calder is surprised but eager when Kari plainly tells him he wants him in his bed.
Kari hasn’t told Calder he’s a carrier. He doesn’t plan to, at least until the condom breaks and he ends up pregnant. But Kari doesn’t want people to know he’s a carrier, because too often carriers are protected, not sent out to save people from their abusers.
Will Kari have to choose between building a family with Calder and continuing the work he’s been doing for the past months? Or is there a way for him to have both?
