He was supposed to be a delivery. Not a possession.Alexei Volkov has spent his entire life surviving-keeping his head down, hiding his omega status, and doing whatever it takes to afford his grandmother's medication.

He doesn't tolerate betrayal. And he never lets what belongs to him walk away.Cold. Calculating. Untouchable. The most feared crime lord in the city.When Alexei is brought before him, trembling but defiant, Dimitri expects a weak omega begging for mercy.Instead, he finds fire.What begins as captivity ignites into something far more dangerous-an instinctive bond neither of them can deny.

Dimitri wants control.Then everything changes.Because Alexei isn't just carrying secrets anymore.He's carrying an heir.Now rival syndicates are circling. Enemies are watching. And Dimitri will burn the city to the ground before he lets anyone touch what's his.But the greatest battle won't be fought in the streets.It will be fought in the space between possession and love.In a world ruled by violence, can a ruthless king learn to protect without owning… And can a defiant omega survive loving the most dangerous man alive?

He doesn't show mercy. And he doesn't release what he claims.Cold. Untouchable. Ruthlessly in control-Adrian is everything Luca should fear. A man carved from violence and sharpened by betrayal. Keeping Luca close is supposed to be strategic. Temporary. Necessary.But hatred has a way of burning too hot when there's nowhere to run.Forced into Adrian's guarded estate, Luca quickly learns that defiance comes with consequences… and that the line between punishment and protection is far more dangerous than he imagined. Because beneath Adrian's brutal dominance lies an obsession that neither of them can afford.Every glance lingers too long. Every touch lasts too much. Every moment alone becomes a battle neither of them knows how to win.Trust is a weakness. Desire is a weapon.
