Recovery Period by Neopets2014

Self-sufficiency and solitude has normalized her life, but Nico spends most days existing. Her outwardly masculine persona leads most to lean on her hard, pushing her to the brink of breaking under the pressure. When she injures herself, she turns up at her local urgent care where she's seen by and smitten with Dr. Raina Casey. Doctor Casey feels drawn to her patient, but will she cross the line? Note: This is going to be a slow-burn, folks. I see a lot of stories where honorifics get thrown around really fast and I want something that's going to really build up to the intimacy the dynamic deserves. ** Disclaimer: all characters are consenting adults over the age of 21, will feature age regression, same-sex relationships, some smut, and references to physical and emotional abuse**

Trusting another man is difficult especially when they wear the same uniform, but as they both work through their pasts, they find solace in each other.
