Born the only beta in a family of werewolves, CJ has spent his entire life trying to figure out where he fits and what kind of person he's meant to be. It's why he left his insular werewolf community to attend college in the big city.

One of the best things he's found? You. His roommate, his best friend, his secret crush.

This is part of the Zip Into Fall gift exchange on Zipperdee's Discord server. My gift recipient is Captainbottles!

The prompts you gave me really inspired me. I, too, love mutual pining and characters who just want/need to be loved. I know I already enjoy this sweet subbie boy, so I hope you do, too.

Note: I did four intro scenarios: a meet cute, a domestic cozy moment, some general werewolf angst and some fall specific angst.
