Author's Summary:
Written for the following prompt, over at part eight of the StarTrek XI Kinkmeme:
Bones is a werewolf.
The moment he meant James Kirk, got a good whiff of his scent, he knew he was fucked.
He had thought those stories about werewolves scenting their mate were all bullshit.
But the stories about mating for life have got to be fake, right? Right?
Review:
Werewolf!Bones, his species a secret, finds out Jim is his soulmate the first time they meet during their training. Cue angst and pining, as Bones has to deal with the fact that his mate is a slutty commitment-phobe who has no idea werewolves exist. The dynamics between the rest of the crew are also a feature here, giving more depth to a familiar trope. The friendship between Bones and fellow werewolf Uhura is lovely, as is the rallying of the crew as a whole around their non-human members. This is first and foremost a great romance fic that doesn't fall too deep into melodrama, as well as a great retelling of the growth of friendship between all crew members.
