Oliver is human, or at least he was until the Glass Research Company kidnapped him and experimented on him. Now he has a bear sharing his mind, but he's not able to shift, and he's confused. Is he a shifter, or a human? What's worse, he's getting sicker every day, and no one seems to know how to help him. He can't even bond with his mate because he doesn't want Sebastian to hurt if something happens to him. Sebastian wants his mate to be cured, and the only way to do that is to go to New York and kidnap one of the company's scientists. With the help of his pride brothers, he manages to do just that, but having Oliver cured doesn't mean all their problems are over. Oliver will have to deal with learning how to shift and trying to convince Sebastian that he's fine and that he can be claimed, but once he manages to do that, other problems arise. Will the two lovers finally have the time to just be together, or will the pressure push them apart?
