Series Summary: After the death of his submissive, Colonel John Sheppard spent four years alone. Grief and anger pushed him and made him even more ambitious in his career. Taking Dr. Rodney McKay into his life and his bed was supposed to be a political maneuver-- but then he met the man and everything he thought he wanted changed in an instant.
Dr. Rodney McKay has spent a year alone after divorcing his Domme and cutting her collar off in public. He doesn't know if he's ready for a new Dom but he does know he wants Atlantis and Colonel John Sheppard's collar is his path to the city of the Ancients. Then the Marine put his hands on him and Rodney realizes that he's already half way to risking his heart again.
Neither man was prepared for the explosive combination of their sexual dynamic and the intense emotional connection that would burn between them like an inferno.
Author’s Notes
This story was inspired by the works Coming Home and General & Dr. Sheppard by Xanthe. While this is not a story in the world she created, I did use her BDSM/Dynamic theme with her permission. I want to thank her sincerely for her generosity and her contributions to this fandom and several others that I read. I highly recommend that you read EVERYTHING she’s ever written. SEE THE SERIES PAGE FOR MORE AUTHOR NOTES.
