Conner Abbot is about to have his first, and possibly his only, child with the love of his life, high dragon Aris Macleod. The problem is that Aris is a dragon and Conner is an omega werewolf who already has a bad heart. If he shifts into his wolf while pregnant, he could possibly die. He might even die just from carrying the hatchling at all, but it's a risk he's willing to take, and one that his mate is having a hard time accepting.

Aris Macleod, high dragon of his clan, wasn't happy with the arrangement.
