An Unexpected Encounter
Christain was quite immersed in his work for a really long time. After a hectic day, he was going through all the training schedules and the possible strategies when something that his brother said reappeared in his mind
"If you have so much time to tease me, maybe you should start dating, or better get a mate! You're about to be twenty three how long do you plan on being single"?
"Who knows, like I found someone, maybe you will too"
Like an earworm they kept recurring in his head. As a pack leader he was expected to find a mate sooner or later, which is why it was even more surprising that it completely slipped off his mind. Was he getting so engrossed in his work that he eventually stopped caring? Or was he getting sidetracked from the expectation that when the time is right his parents will find him a suitable mate. Maybe now that his baby brother was mated, he should start to think about finding one too?
