Admist the turmoil of a blood-soaked battlefield, General Hua Ren was perched on a horse, his once-pristine uniform now a canvas of rebel bloodstains. Lifeless bodies, a macabre mosaic of soldiers and rebels, lay strewn across the ground—some severed, others trampled beneath the hooves of horses.

In the distant backdrop, a bomb erupted, rattling the battlefield, and in that fleeting moment, the General detected the scent.

His Alpha.

His heart raced as his gaze locked onto the most frigid, intimidating eyes he had ever encountered, and a sinking feeling gripped his stomach.

Sheng Fei, leader of the rebellion, stood tall amidst the chaos, a sinister smirk playing on his lips. In a chilling display of power, Sheng Fei swiftly ended the life of a soldier, his eyes never leaving Hua Ren. 

The stark reality unfolded before Hua Ren, solidifying the bitter truth that their connection was entwined in the threads of enmity.

He could never be the Omega to a Rebel Alpha 

Or so he thought. 

The Rebel's Omega

"Take your hands off me." Hua Ren said to Sheng Fei through gritted teeth the second Rowan was out of earshot. "Now." 


Sheng Fei gazed at Hua Ren for some seconds, amused, for Hua Ren’s glare was so cold it could have turned stone to dust but at the same time, he found him unbelievably adorable. The fiestiness in those clear white eyes. He had never been drawn to any Omega as much as he was to Hua Ren and he knew it wasn't just due to their bond as mates. He felt that even if they weren't mates, he would find himself falling for the Ivory Warlord. 


Apart from being a sight to behold, as an Omega whose strength was on par or even greater than an Alpha's, he was irresistible. It was only after he fought Hua Ren at the Eternal Grain Valley that he realised he didn't want a dainty Omega whom he'd have to treat like glass all the time. He wanted an Omega like Hua Ren, someone he could share the battlefield with. Someone he could trust to watch his back no matter the situation.
