    Summary

    When Andrew gets exiled from his family's pack for protecting himself, he has to deal with his brother choosing the pack's ways over his own autonomy. Always expecting Omegas to be subservient and slaves to an Alpha's demands. Now he's an outcast, pack-less, and alone for the first time, lost, vulnerable, only moving forward through sheer willpower.

    But he pushes his luck too far and gets hurt in the process. Unfortunately for him, help comes in the form of a red alpha, one like he's never seen before. But Andrews's smart enough to expect the worst and never hope for the best.

    Summary

    “Rabbit,” Andrew peered up at him with half lidded eyes, “Yes or no?”

    “Yes ‘Drew,” Neil clasped his hands at Andrew’s elbows, “it’s always a yes, you know that.”

    “No ‘s not,” Andrew weakly argued as he took hold of Neil’s chest pad, using it to leverage himself upwards. It was awkward work of walking half-delirious Andrew back to the locker room, shielding him from the crowd while keeping him on his feet, but they managed.

    Or

    Andrew becomes very sick at an away game, and Neil and the foxes take care of him.

    Summary

    Neil is used to the perpetual feeling of dread like a bruise in his gut, the impending feeling of doom at the slow glide of a door creaking open, or the heavy fall of footsteps on the stairs. From a very young age, Neil has taught himself to disappear. At the flip of a switch, he can be whoever he needs to be to survive.

    For his father, he falls into the role of obedient son, cruel and quiet and bloodthirsty. For his mother, he is a perfect soldier, docile and moveable and easy to control.

    As much as he has grown to morph and manifest into something he needs to be, Neil has been finding it hard to be anyone but himself around Andrew.

    ___

    In which Andrew marries Nathaniel to save his life and they fall in love anyway.

    Summary

    The phone call had been abrupt, curt, and brief. But it had told Nicky everything he had needed to know. He had no intention after graduating from high school of returning to South Carolina.
    He had simply graduated and never set foot back in his parents' home before he was on the next flight back to Germany to be with Erik and the Klouses, who had welcomed him like he was already part of the family.
    They had even had a date already set for their future wedding to be within the next year, no matter what came. He wanted to spend every single day with Erik. Erik had pulled him from his darkest moments. He had saved Nicky’s life in more ways than one.
    But that call had halted everything. All at once, he knew that he couldn’t just… he couldn’t just stay here in Germany. Not when his family needed him.

    Or where Nicky returns to South Carolina to take care of the twins.

    Summary

    “Alright, fine,” Katelyn sighed. “I’m just saying, since you guys are identical twins,” she said, nodding toward Aaron and Andrew across the island, “genetically speaking, Josie is just as much my and Andrew’s daughter as she is my and Aaron’s.” Katelyn pressed her lips together and wrinkled her nose.

    No one spoke for a minute as they considered her statement. Andrew was the first to process. His expression cycled through a wide range of emotions, starting with alarm and ending with something vaguely resembling nausea. Neil’s initial confusion quickly turned to hysterical glee as he watched Andrew’s reaction. Aaron’s face went through a similar journey as his brother’s before it settled on a somewhat constipated expression. His ears turned pink and he stared at his wife in disbelief.
    ---------
    People compare Andrew and Aaron a bunch, and it's funny until it isn't. Luckily for Andrew, his babygirl Neil is there to defuse the situation

    Summary

    Neil looked up to apologize and his mouth went dry.

    “Neil-” His name coming out of Andrew’s mouth was low, barely above a breathy whisper.

    “Dre- Andrew- what are you- why- I mean, I know this is your school. Why are you-”

    Jeremy appeared out of absolutely nowhere with a concerned frown and interrupted, “No, sorry Minyard, this isn’t happening. Switch with me.” Neil couldn’t bring himself to look at Andrew, let alone sit next to him.

    Summary

    Mary Hatford has been dead for years by the time Neil Josten finally makes it to Canada. Well, the border at least. And at this point the only thing standing in his way is the few days it will take him to raise enough money to cross.

    At least, that’s what he thinks.

    Only, when his not-so-long-gone past catches up to him (in the form of one very small, very angry Andrew Minyard who desperately wants his stolen car back) Neil finds himself travelling down old roads he never thought he’d see again. Both metaphorically and literally, of course.

    In other words: it’s a road trip.

    Summary

    “I wasn’t going to let him get hurt.”

    It was all he could come up with.

    “Well you did a bang-up job of that, didn’t you?”

    Andrew’s first assumption was that Aaron was referring to how Neil paid some guy to knock him out. Then he saw the way Nicky had stilled and Kevin was avoiding eye-contact.

    Summary

    Andrew is going to kill someone before this season is over, he’s sure of it. He hates every single one of the new recruits, especially the one Neil chose.
    Andrew is sick and tired of Neil being so god damn oblivious to the fact that most of them are constantly flirting with him. A couple of them do give Neil the oogly eyes far to much for Andrews liking but they don’t actually say anything or do anything so they hardly are under Andrews radar.
    Nicky finds it hilarious that Neil is so oblivious to the freshman’s obvious flirting, and it’s even funnier when he sees Andrew glowering at them from across the court.

    Maybe he didn’t have to look so far into time, though. Maybe he was right where he needed to be already, with two obnoxious idiots he could still take care of, one way or another.

      ch3:
      “Aaron is mad. You’re mad. Were you going to hit him?” Andrew said, interrupting his thoughts.

      “If he threw another ice cube at me, I would have hit him.” He meant it, too. He was now limited on clothes and didn't need Aaron’s attitude to ruin the only set he had.

      “Hmm.” Andrew hummed.

      Neil stared at Andrew’s stiff posture. There was a lot of angry staring going around, it seemed. [lol] “Don’t do that.”

      “Do what?”

      Irritated, Neil said, “Pretend like Aaron is defenseless. If I had hit him, he would have hit back. If he hit me first, I would have hit him back. Aaron doesn’t need a protector.”

      Andrew said, “Okay.”

      Neil paused, dumbfounded. “That's it? Okay?”

      “Aaron stopped needing someone to protect him years ago.”

      “Okay.”

      “Neil.” Andrew stopped him before he made it to his blanket relocation site.

      “What,” he said with an irritated edge, “what?” he repeated louder, pulling his stuff back to the floor.

      Andrew stared—more staring—deeply into Neil’s eyes like he was figuring something out. “Nothing.”

      Neil had a feeling nothing was code for something;

      ch4:
      "I liked you better when you were asleep." Andrew dug around in his bag, turning his back to Neil.

      [...]

      "I liked you better when you didn't exist," Neil said.

      ch5:
      They drove in silence for three hours and two more of radio music, creating a comfortable atmosphere until Andrew pulled into a gas station for a bathroom break and to fill up the tank. Neil hopped out, too, with the duffle bag in tow. Andrew raised his brow at him, to which Neil shrugged off. It was funny how old habits never died.

      ch6:
      "Not yet. Someday, maybe." Neil wasn’t a hopeless romantic, but he wanted to believe he wasn’t without the capabilities to have romantic feelings for someone. No one has interested him enough to form an attachment. Except Aaron, but the thought of kissing Aaron gives him hives. [lol]
