By the time the alpha of the Morvan werewolf pack approaches lโInstitut Marcel Chavinier for help solving his peopleโs fertility problems, pack numbers have dwindled and the remaining members are desperate. Though the wizards at lโInstitut have no experience with werewolves, their lore, or their brand of magic, Raymond agrees to help.
At lโANS headquarters, Raymond finds Marc Gourlin, a young wizard fascinated with werewolves. Marc agrees to visit the werewolvesโ home to study their rituals for the source of the problem. But when he arrives, he finds himself distracted by Adenet Silaire, the pack shaman. The attraction between them is powerful, but though Marc suspects he might be Adenetโs mate, Adenet rebuffs him. Marc is a man, and Adenetโs sense of responsibility will not let him take a male mate when the pack so desperately needs children.
Meanwhile, Jean and Raymond discover the Aveu de Sang allows a vampireโs Avouรฉ to calm his inner beast. For Jean and Orlando, this is wonderful newsโbut it only convinces Thierry how much Sebastien is missing out on because they cannot form an Aveu de Sang. Determined to give his partner everything he can, Thierry sets out to recreate the bond denied them by Sebastienโs past.
