STARWRITES

Lucas Bennett's life falls apart the day a routine medical examination reveals a shocking truth. He isn't a Beta. He's a late-developing Omega. Determined to keep his identity secret, Lucas clings desperately to the normal life he has always wanted. But before he can even process the truth, the Omega he's secretly loved for years confesses her feelings for someone else—the one person Lucas has always felt inferior to. Eric Carter. The school's most popular Alpha. Basketball captain. Top student. Campus heartthrob. The boy who seems to have everything. As Lucas struggles to accept his new reality, a chance encounter places him directly in Eric's path. What should have been a brief moment turns into a dangerous obsession when Eric discovers that Lucas is an Omega—and possibly his fated mate. But Lucas refuses to believe Eric's feelings are genuine. After all, why would someone like Eric ever choose someone like him? As rumors spread across campus and powerful Alphas begin taking an interest in the mysterious Omega hiding among them, Lucas finds himself caught in a storm he never asked for. To make matters worse, strange inconsistencies surrounding his birth records suggest that his identity may have been hidden long before he was born. Someone knew he was an Omega. Someone covered it up, and someone doesn't want the truth to come out. With his future, his heart, and his secrets all at stake, Lucas must decide whether to keep running from the life fate has chosen for him—or fight for the future he wants. In a world where instincts rule and secrets have consequences, falling in love might be the most dangerous thing of all.
