Wait… I swear I read that Asa thought Caleb smelled like Dr. Pepper poured over ice with coconut creamer and a splash of lime… 
Hmm. You must have deleted that suggestion. Shame. 

That one did not pass inspection. Ungrateful witch... be happy with the new leather and coconut.

I'm up... I have to go through the 120 suggestions @Mrsgnomie left at 11:59 last night. Plus I'm working so it might be a couple of hours.

Careful there. You don't have the time to add repairing sheetrock or plaster to your to do list.

There is that.

You can’t tell someone they have been depressed or unhappy for enough time.  It’s the same as grieving.  You are grieving for whatever it was that lead to the depression in the first place, and everyone grieves at their own pace.

Caleb has found a sanctuary, yes.  That’s wonderful.  It’s full of people who are understanding and supportive of his needs, if not necessarily his wants.  Those are two different things.  Both Luke and Giles are proving they are being exactly what he needs.  They are pushing him to participate in community events, like the Sunday Brunch, so that he doesn’t lock himself away.  They are insisting that he take better care of himself physically by making sure he eats and sleeps properly.  Thankfully, he has Eclipse and Hank to take care of.  They help him get out of those downward spirals that are so very common for those with severe depression by giving him something/someone else to focus on.

Giles has asked/demanded that Caleb start talking with some kind of therapist after the roundup.  Caleb has agreed.  He wants to succeed as much as they want him to.  Good.  Giles has allowed Caleb to acclimate to his new surroundings, but now is pushing the idea that the hard work needs to start.  

I agree with @Alexmugs.  Caleb still cares deep down.  He wouldn’t have sent Vann away to another Alpha if he didn’t.  He wouldn’t be worrying now about how he is currently faring and how all of this is affecting him.  Ha!  He wouldn’t have even helped Sebastian and his crew defeat the bad guys, if he didn’t actually care!

Yes, Caleb can be brought out of this severe depression AT HIS OWN PACE.  However, he’s going to have to be honest with Giles, at least, about Asa.  This could throw a monkey wrench into his recovery process.

Depression has a myriad of causes and no clear-cut cure. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to treatment. 

Caleb has made some baby steps for sure, but will they be enough? 

I'd like to think that the twist I'm getting ready to throw at you all will take care of a few birds with one stone. We'll see.

Among other magical powers, I sincerely hope that Asa is dentist too! 

I don't think any amount of dentistry or potential healing powers can help those teeth.

Is that really Caleb? Does he really have such nasty teeth ? This has to be a fake,

With their reply to your comment, do you think @kbois/ @Mrsgnomie author is planning a crossover?  That could be fun...or a huge disaster.  I think we need a new name for the insane person combo of these two.  Something like Gnois or Kbomie?

 

IYep! Mrs G, @84Mags is right!  BTW,  As Kbios beta/editor what is behind Caleb's coconut smell?  Did she add that to show Caleb has been marked by you, or a sign of how much Caleb disgusts her?     

 

We covered the mash-up name already. I believe we may have settled on Gnobois? It sounds good. 

Caleb and coconut... did you see what he looks like? His picture is posted on the cover page if you haven't checked it out yet. It may explain everything.

Well... Caleb’s wolf has already been established as being gray with a little brown and white. Asa isn't an animal shifter. They're cute though!

So what do Caleb and Asa look like

 I checked and you haven't posted any pictures on the cover page. What gives?

I've been waiting for someone to ask. Caleb's picture is up. Asa’s will be posted Saturday.

And yes... it's Gnomie-approved.

Oh goodness, the endings is initially funny 😄, then shocking 😳 (former Alpha), and then to think of poor Asa, waiting patiently, respectfully, but longingly to see … a recovering Alpha running from him 😡 . Hmmm 🤔, is this when we see lightning bolts and smell more ozone discharged? With these chains of light you will halt!
 

I kinda picture Asa standing there like this

Poor Cane. Trying to navigate this twisted tangled web that Gnomie and Kbois have woven. 

 

@84Mags and @FanLit

So you're abandoning Caleb for a locksmith-cum-spy?

Just now, Mrsgnomie said:

Maybe he installed the security systems for the guys who captured the hybrids.

I was thinking the same thing!

Max was always an interesting character to me needless to say he's even more so now can't wait to hear more of his back story. I wonder if he takes Keegan along on his projects.Max acted like he's in some kind of position of authority over Reid when he told Reid to leave he did.

BTW Reid Martindale? Is he related to Wink? (Sorry had to ask ) (I hope nobody asks who Wink Martindale is)

TIC-TAC-DOUGH!!!

I'm thinking with the heightened senses wolves have, they would know.

Caleb was in wolf form and unconscious when Asa encountered him which hampered his natural response. I'm sure it will be apparent to everyone once they meet in person.

You have the Korner. We have the Executive Lounge.
