In a non-shifting alpha/omega society, omegas have become so scarce, they’re sequestered at birth in isolated facilities. Rafael Vargas, cyber expert, is an omega hiding in plain sight. At least until activists recruit him to hack an omega facility and rescue the children. He gets away clean until a prime alpha unwittingly hires him to trace the hack. With his precious freedom at risk, Rafael battles his instinctive attraction to the alpha. Grant Tenereth, an alpha overseeing the omega facilities, is hell-bent on finding the kidnapped children. But from the moment he hires the fascinating but challenging Rafael, Grant finds himself questioning his rock-solid devotion to the rules. When he learns the man is an omega as well as a criminal hacker, he tries to do the right thing for the law, even if it isn’t the right thing for him. Or for the omega. Grant struggles, trapped between duty and desire. Rafael aches for love but fears losing his independence. Will they realize before it’s too late that what they have isn’t just instinct? It’s everything.

To Tame an Omega

Grant Tenereth shifted in his seat as he merged the SUV into highway traffic on the way to the omega facility. Something was making him itch. He glanced at the man in the passenger seat—nothing but dead silence from the moment they’d started this journey. There was something unusual about Rafael Vargas. Something Grant couldn’t pin down. The only thing he was sure of was the desire to know the man better.


Grant hadn’t had a reaction like that toward any man in ages. Oh he’d had pragmatic sexual encounters with betas—a means to an end on both sides. But Rafael was different. He smelled different. A pleasing masculine scent, even though it was sadly marred by some odd metallic note. Confusing.


He tried again to engage the man in conversation. “What do you think your chances are of finding the hacker?”
