    Summary

    At fifty-two, Robby’s heats had been winding down for years, growing shorter and weaker until they'd petered out entirely. His body had finally quit making demands, and as far as he was concerned, that chapter was closed.

    When the first signs of pre-heat hit him mid-shift, Robby does what any reasonable man in deep denial would do, he ignores it. Because he is fifty-fucking-two years old and he is not doing this again.

    TL;DR: Dennis’s potent alpha pheromones drag Robby’s reluctant body out of reproductive retirement.

    They set ground rules: nothing at work.

    Nothing that leaves a mark anywhere someone will see.

    Summary

    The first night after Robby leaves, Dennis sleeps in Robby's bed.

    He tries not to think about it. It doesn't help that the sheets smell like Robby's laundry detergent, a smell Dennis doesn’t even know is familiar until he lays on the bed and the ghost of Robby rises up around him.

    Something in his gut clenches tight and doesn't let go. He curls in on himself, breathing in deep for a long time. Lets the shame wash through him, the violence of the want, and doesn't move until it ebbs.

    Dennis gets worried about Robby after he leaves. He has a few drinks and makes a call. Robby comes back.

    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker has never needed fate to tell him who he’s meant to be.
    Doctor. Full stop.

    He just really didn’t expect that on his very last rotation of medical school, his new attending would casually speak the words inked around his bicep.
    ---
    Robby has spent years believing soulmates and fate are for two kinds of people: fools and the forgiven. It’s easier than admitting what it would mean if the words on his ribs weren’t a mistake.

    It’s simple, really:
    Whitaker’s his mentee. His legacy, maybe.
    Not his soulmate.

    And if Robby has to burn down every possibility to keep it that way, he will.

    Summary

    "There has to be something you want to come back for. Something you can’t die without doing.”

    Robby’s gaze roamed across Dennis's face, tracing the planes and sharp angles of his features like he was trying to commit them to memory. He already had a long time ago. The horrible, aching knot in his chest dedicated to Dennis was a piece of Robby that he tried, time and time again, to rip out. Always to no avail.

    If he had anything to come back for, it’d be this one thing.

    "Marry me," Robby said.

    Robby, about to head out for his sabbatical and never return, thinks to hell with it—nothing matters except for the very real, very inappropriate feelings he's been harboring for his first-year resident. So he proposes. And before he can take it back, Whitaker says yes.
