From the blurb:

This fated mates thing was supposed to be easy ...

Robin
I've known Weld was my fated alpha mate for as long as I can remember. He left town when I was a toddler. It hurt, but I understood his reasons. He wants me to have a normal omega childhood with teenage first love and heartbreak. I do my best, but in the back of my mind, I know he's the only one for me.

When it's finally time for him to sweep me off my feet after my final molt, he doesn't return. I find him in a remote village on my twenty-sixth birthday. Instead of falling into my arms and claiming me with a mate mark, he pushes me away! He says he needs more time. When he starts talking years, I've heard enough. I need to take charge before I die waiting!

The Monster at the End of This Molt takes place 23 years after the events in The Dragon at the End of This Pregnancy. It is an age gap male/male knotty mpreg romance between 2 consenting versatile adults. It has monster anatomy, primal play, knotting, all the slick, nesting, true love, fated mates, adorable babies, snark, eggpreg spice, and a guaranteed happily ever after! The Monster at the End of His Pregnancy series is best read in order. This is the 4th and final book in the series.

Content Warning: Discussion of former partner's miscarriage (laid/fertilized eggs didn't mature).


Molly Otto's review:

Robin knew who his fated mate was from when he was just a week old. Too band Weld didn't want to be seen as grooming him, so mafr the decision to give them space until he was mature enough to understand the bonds. Robin, when coming of age, decides to take matters in his own hands to visit Weld in his exile. what makes this work so well is that unlike in some fated mates books, they don't jump right into bed they take time to know one another as they are now. Weld returning home goes better than anticipated with the rest of the community moving past his past mistakes and welcoming him fully back into the fold. Adored even his ex was a huge supporter of this relationship and encouraged him to move forward and let his past go. Overall, it was a well-done read with humor and heat mixed together.
