Jordan

Jordan loves his brother Freddy, but he hates that Freddy has fallen into a life of crime to make sure Jordan didn't. He especially hates it when Freddy's competitors try to get to Freddy through him, because unlike Freddy, he never learned more than the basics to fight and defend himself. So when he's attacked, he shifts into his flamingo form and flies away, ending up wounded in the bushes behind a house.

Angelo left Italy and the mate who rejected him decades ago. He's built himself a new life in Gillham, but he can't help regretting he doesn't have a man by his side. When a flamingo crashes into his bushes, he's astounded to find out the bird the man shifts into is his mate, because it shouldn't be possible. Angelo's mate is in Italy, happily married. Right?

Jordan and Angelo hit it off from the start, but Freddy is in danger. The men after him won't stop trying to get to him, even though he now has the council's protection. Will Angelo manage to keep both Jordan and Freddy safe, or will he lose his mate for the second time?
