weak from the change on the medical tables. Ohlen stayed folded over Andi. Unable to keep his hands from learning her new shape. Tracing the circular pattern of her spots. Imagining she would melt into the darkness and be all but invisible to an untrained eye.
He looked up from his fascinated study of his mate at Gwen’s snarl. Saw her ears flatten to her skull when Ga’rae told her it was impossible for her to shift back into her human form so soon.
“Your beast will not allow it and you do not possess the control it will take to change so soon.” Gwen’s lips peeled back to show her mate her teeth and she barked a sound at Clary.
Andi lifted her head to watch. Even he could feel a charge ripple through the air. Every warrior present watched the commander’s mate close her eyes. Tuck her chin down to her chest and roll her body, her shoulders. Flexed her paws and slowly, her white fur receded, her shape changed. Morphed until a nude female knelt on the exam table, panting with exertion.
“You were saying?” Clary said defiantly and promptly fainted.
Ohlen jolted out of his open-mouthed shock when Andi moved beneath his hands. She trembled. Rolled to her belly and groaned. Oh no.
“Andi, please. Don’t be stubborn and try to change back so soon.”
Ohlen was not above begging, but she completely ignored him. Eyes closed. Only the tip of her agile tail twitched back and forth to show her concentration. Her silky black fur fell away and left her naked in her tiny human form on the table. She looked up at him, her eyes cloudy with pain and said, “Ow,” before those glorious eyes rolled back and she fainted too.
“Scan her, quickly,” Ga’rae ordered from across the room.

- When you wake, it will be in my arms. I vow it, my one.
The deep voice moved over her. Pulled her up from the darkness of unconsciousness. Andi blinked. Streams of orange, red and yellow dominating her sight. Another blink and the unfamiliar room she was in came into perfect focus. She was incredibly warm. Felt a strange tingling on her skin and looked down it to see she was submerged up to her chin in some kind of pink goo,
“Andi.”
The wealth of relief in the familiar voice made her tip her head back. Smooshing her head into the goo. A smile pulled her lips up when she met Ohlen’s gaze. She watched the worry in his expression melt away. Replaced with the same relief she’d heard in his tone. He was sitting in the pink goo with her, holding her tightly.
“Hi.” she croaked.
Wondering why her throat hurt. Why it hurt to speak or smile. Ohlen immediately shifted and scooped up some gel, rubbing it into her neck carefully. It was like he’d applied a tingly hot pack to her throat. The warmth penetrating within seconds to soothe the ache.
“Do you hurt anywhere?” he murmured.
Andi shook her head. Wrinkling her nose when he smeared more gel into her hair. Gross. Worse, her nose wrinkle made her realize that she had a thick layer of it on her face.
“No, don’t wipe it away. The gel is healing you.”
“Healing me?” she wheezed.
Ohlen snorted, shifting them both lower into the tub until the gel was up over her chin. Almost touching her bottom lip. About to pour into her ears. Oh sick. Gross. Ew! She fought not to squirm around. Worried too much movement and it would fill her ears up.
“You, little mate, went from human to Sarazen and back faster than any Sarazen has ever been able to do. Your body has suffered for it. The first shift back and forth is always traumatic and you did it in a mind-boggling span of time. I entered into the regeneration chamber with you just as you woke. It has been almost a full day since your first shift. I will attempt to explain further at a later time. Right now, let me just hold you while the gel does its work.”
“It’s gross.”
“So it is.”
“Can’t I just have another shot of something?” she whined.
“No.” Damn. He
