He mocked the omegaverse. Now he’s living it—with a baby on the way.

Souta Tachibana was just your average, overworked office drone—until his BL-obsessed coworker introduced him to a trashy omegaverse romance novel. Curious (and a little horrified), Souta read it for laughs. But then he died in an accident.

Now, he wakes up in the body of Lucien d’Armoire, a minor noble in the empire of Aetheria. No plot relevance. No destined lovers. Just a quiet, boring life as a background beta.

Until one morning, he throws up into a chamber pot… and his doctor says something unthinkable:

“Baron d’Armoire, you’re pregnant.”

Which is impossible.
Because he's male.
And straight!
And because Betas can’t get pregnant.
…Right?

Except Lucien is no Beta. He’s a rare male Omega. Apparently, during one reckless, drunken night, Lucien slept with an Alpha. Now he's pregnant, confused, and definitely not ready to be a father. To make matters worse—he doesn’t even know who the father is.

The council chamber buzzed with murmurs. Nobles sat stiffly in their seats, expressions carved from marble. Papers shuffled. Someone coughed dramatically in the corner—twice—clearly hoping for attention.

Well… as gracefully as someone internally panicking, bloated, and fighting the ghost of a craving for candied grapes could manage.

He blinked around the room like a tourist who'd somehow wandered into a holy temple of bureaucracy.

Not on the crisis. Not on a human growing inside him. Certainly not on whatever political nightmare this meeting was about.

No, his mind was spiraling in bold italics and all caps.

'Where did I see that long, silver-haired, handsome man before? Was he mentioned in the novel?'
