    Summary

    “I’m not . . “ Grace trails off as he swallows trying to lubricate his throat. “normal. I’m too hard.”

    “Everyone’s worth trying for. If facilities aren’t for you and you want to go back to your schedule at home, there’s nothing stopping you. But places like this are somewhat for your benefit and please believe me when I say no one is turned away no matter how difficult. You’d be a great case study actually Mr. Grace, oh sorry right . . no names.”

    “It’s okay,” Grace lets out quietly. “I’m okay now.”

    “Oh!” Christie lights up a little appreciating the correction from the delta. “Dr. Grace then. I read more of your file.”

    Ryland snorts at that and can’t help but crack a smile through all the pain. “A doctor now a lab rat.”

    Ryland Grace has been at an omega designation for a good few years now, even as a delta. With this stability comes a regular schedule of heats. He tends to manage them alone, simply taking the time off from teaching and holing up in his apartment. He doesn't have anyone to help him, not any friends and certainly no family. And the thought of trying out a partner again makes him shudder.
    But this time, this heat, he can't stay at home.
