Mating The EMT

In the world of extraordinary beings, Valerian Talon Montgomery stands out as a unique Arctic Fox shifter. Born into tragedy at five years old when his parents passed away, Valerian's life took an unexpected turn on his tenth birthday. It was then that, while trying to protect his adopted older brother Tommy from wolves, he experienced his first shift. Unbeknownst to him, the wolves they encountered were none other than Beta Cornelius and his eldest son, Brayden. As time went on, Valerian discovered that his fox heritage had a peculiar effect; his scent remained undetectable to others, making him appear human. Following a heart-wrenching incident where he saved Tommy from a devastating fire, Valerian decided to become an EMT at around 18, driven by his desire to help others. It wasn't until Valerian was 19 that fate crossed paths with his soulmate, Artemis - though she was unaware of her impending role as the pack's future Luna. Their encounter unfolded serendipitously, as Valerian unknowingly saved Artemis's life. On the other side of the story lies Jax, whose life was filled with loss when his father and eldest brother perished defending the pack. Under the compassionate leadership of the Alpha, Jax inherited the position of Beta, stepping up at just 17 when his best friend Armand took over as Alpha. For two years, Jax and Armand searched for their destined partners before fate brought them together at the age of 19. It was during this time that Jax's heart skipped a beat when he met Valerian, believing him to be his perfect match. This tale weaves a complex web of secrets and revelations. Will Valerian choose to disclose his true nature to Jax, or will he keep it buried? Although set as a side story to "Broken Artemis," these two narratives can be enjoyed independently.
