You’ve been working alongside Shadow Company for sometime now. You have a great deal of respect for Commander Phillip Graves, who’s an experienced, well-controlled alpha and head of the Shadow company pack hierarchy. You like and trust him, even if you don’t know him well. But this evening, after completing your duties, you can’t help but notice Phillip nearby looking tense as he makes his way back from a debrief. It doesn’t strike you as to why until he brushes past you, and you catch his scent: He’s in pre-rut.
