The Beta Dominates Alphas
Kestrel was a beta, and an aggressive one that most folks didn't like much. The Empire had picked a future husband for her. This guy was pretty much perfect: born into a high-class family, good-looking, rich, nice, and the envy of everyone around.
People were quick to start whispering.
"Why did such a great guy end up with her? She can't even make tea right and she barely passed her cooking class."
"He won't be able to put up with her for long."
"Right, their love story is a train wreck waiting to happen."
Hearing this stuff over and over, Kestrel started to think that she and her guy, Tarian, were doomed from the start. So, when Tarian showed up with a sweet and pretty girl, Kestrel pulled off her engagement ring and tossed it into the gutter.
From that moment, Kestrel lived free and happy, like a bird soaring in the sky, a fish swimming in the wide ocean.
But a few years into her easy-going life, at a royal shindig, Tarian cornered her. His eyes were all red, and he confessed that he was sorry for everything and that he couldn't stop thinking about her. But Kestrel, wild as ever, wasn't interested in going back to her old life.
Tarian turned white, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care what you're like, and I can handle your shortcomings. You won't find a more understanding alpha than me."
"Well, I already have a new alpha." To totally shake him off, Kestrel made up a name on the spot. She quickly thought of all the alphas she'd met on the battlefield over the years, and chose the name of a buddy she was tight with, guessing he wouldn't mind.
"He's a good listener, and we're a perfect fit. Plus, he really likes me and doesn't care about my mistakes."
Right after a bummed-out Tarian took off, Kestrel turned around and smacked right into the guy she'd just made up. This guy, a real war hero who'd taken down tons of enemies, turned a bit pink, looked away, and muttered, "You... when did you figure out that I have a crush on you?"
This is a gem. Amazingly well written and not what I expected at all when reading the description, in a good way. I saw it was on the daily free books, read the description and thought it was going to be another mindless, easy read about Alphas (wolves usually 😅) but this was nothing like that. I've read to chapter 140ish (very sleep deprived thanks to this 😂) and this book has so much depth, the characters are amazing. especially love the FL & ML (did a happy dance when the ml WASNT a cold, dominant CEO type who's always stronger than FL in every way 🤦🏻♀️). I adore them so much and the FL's 'little friends', so precious. 😭The story and world itself have kept me completely hooked, always wanting to know what happens next. honestly I can't recommend this story enough, its a breath of fresh air compared to the copy and paste stories on here. my only very, very minor gripe would be how much the author uses the word 'super' a lot. It kept throwing me out of the story. Like, 'it was super dark', 'she was super strong'. sometimes several times in a paragraph and from character POV's that really didn't suit that word in my opinion. Considering everything else was so well written, the use of that word seemed out of place. 😅 but maybe it's because I hear that word from kids more than anything and thought it juvenile, so it's possibly just my own preference. anyway, love this story! I'm so glad it came up on the daily free books or i may have completely missed out on this gem. definitely gonna save coins and read the rest. thank you author! 😊

What an awesome book. Loved the writing style, and story development. Don't know why it's not yet popular after 251 chaps. [img=recommend][img=recommend]
Can't believe I never dropped a review. I saw this in the recommended, came for the FP but stayed for Kestrel's character development. I really like Kestrel. She is a complex individual and her tendrils have so much character. This is not the typical omegaverse that I am familiar with, but the story was so enjoyable! Big Fish is super cute 💕
this is hidden gem .mmmore updates please
beat storythat I have read on this platform.
Really enjoyed this story, the plot development and growth of the characters. Gripping storytelling 😄
I really love this story. It shares some similarities with another work written by the author but also has some differences. These differences I absolutely love. This world is a bit more on the haunting, supernatural, fantasy etc side. It's also made me teary eyed a few times. These scenes are beautifully written. I love how Kestrel is written and her little friends. The ml is also great. I have to say I like how all of the characters are written out and that includes the bad guys. That just goes to show how much I enjoy and love this story. Keep up the great work Treein! Thank you for all that you do.♥️♥️♥️
thank you, i enjoyed the story especially how it was classy romance.
You won’t find a better gripping read! The story development, the characters are all excellent! A very well-told and wonderful world to exist in although I wish for an epilogue to tell how things fared after. Master story crafting author and worth every coin. Great job author. Thanks for sharing your world with us! 🥰🫶🏻
It's not often that I give a book a full 5 stars. I have been absolutely astounded - this is an excellent read. The highest compliment I can give is the knowledge that I've happily paid for chapters, which I very very rarely do. Like one of the other readers - I originally read it for the points but stayed for the read. Well done author, well done and thank you!
It's a great read and I encourage everyone to read it
