Synopsis
Pierce may have a crush on Steve, his
sweet, funny personal trainer, but he doesn’t plan to act on it. They have a
great relationship in the gym but are also friends outside of it, and Pierce
has no intention of jeopardizing that. Besides, he may be an omega, but he’s
got a good handle on his body’s biology. He’s not worried he’ll accidentally take
things too far.
Steve may have a crush on Pierce, his
smart and incredibly hot client, but he’s definitely not planning to say
anything anytime soon. Pierce can do way better than Steve, and anyway, Pierce
is a pretty casual dater. What Steve wants is anything but casual. And that’s
not just the alpha in him.
When Pierce goes to Steve’s gym one
snowy afternoon to work out, he thinks nothing of the fact that he’s in heat.
He’s taken his libido inhibitor and is wearing his odor blocker, so there’s no
chance of bothering Steve. Except, then the blocker wears off.
Steve wants nothing more than to keep
himself under control, keep himself from doing something Pierce might not want.
But Pierce might have something else in mind…

Chapter One
Pierce walked into Steve’s studio, the
bell jingling cheerily as the door swung open and closed, and hung up his coat.
He pulled off his boots, switched them out for his sneakers, and then stepped
out onto the empty matted area.
“Steve?” he called.
“Coming! Pick some music!”
Pierce shrugged and headed over to the
speaker system and fiddled with the iPod Steve kept plugged in there, scrolling
to one of his playlists. Steve kept music for all his clients on it, which was
one of many personal touches that made him the best personal trainer ever.
By the time Pierce had settled on a
playlist, Steve had come into the studio. He was barefoot today, and Pierce
winced. Bare feet meant it was going to be a hard-core cardio day.
Plus side to cardio: he was often so
focused on what he was doing, time passed fairly quickly.
Downside to cardio: it made him kind of
want to die.
“Hey,” Steve said, smiling. “How you
doing today?”
“Not bad. Almost done with a couple of
projects.”
“Awesome. Is one of them the book
covers?”
Pierce couldn’t help but smile. Another
reason Steve was so great was that he truly cared about his clients and
remembered the details of their lives. “Yeah, the publishing company and I have
pretty much settled on everything.”
Pierce was a graphic designer, and he
worked primarily from home, which was one of the main reasons he’d found Steve
and his studio. Because he spent most days sitting, he needed the exercise, and
a reason to leave his house unrelated to getting groceries.
He did have friends he socialized with
of course, but working from home was a lot of time to spend by yourself. Hence
seeing Steve three times a week.
“So let me guess.” Pierce sighed. “We’re
focusing on cardio first.”
Steve laughed. “What gave me away?”
Pierce stared pointedly at Steve’s feet.
Steve laughed again and wiggled his
toes. “All right, all right. Sounds like I don’t have to introduce the program.
Shall we get started?”
Pierce groaned and went to the center of
the mat.
