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

Inside the dorm room, Rafael lay sleeping. The usual wariness in his face was gone, and he looked more than ever like his angelic namesake. What incredible luck to have met by chance this man who called to him with such power. Maintaining a discreet distance, Grant indulged himself in studying the beautiful body, head to toe.


He wasn’t sure how long he’d stood watching, but by the time a knock on the door brought him out of his reverie, the ice had dripped a puddle onto the floor, and his hands were freezing. He set the icepack on the desk and opened the door.


A guard with an attitude of exaggerated respect (had word spread already?) stood in the hall, holding Grant’s gym bag. “Is this what you wanted, Director? If there’s anything else, let me know.”


Grant took the bag. “Thank you. I will.”


The man handed Grant’s car keys to him, turned, and left.
