He is the most powerful CEO in the city. I am the forbidden secret his body can’t ignore. When I accepted the temporary job at BlackWolf Corp, I thought my biggest problem would be pleasing a cold, intimidating boss. I was wrong. Adrian Blackwood isn’t just a billionaire, dominant, and ridiculously sexy. He’s an Alpha. And I’m the Omega he should never touch. From the very first second, something between us snaps. His stare undresses me. His voice makes my legs tremble. His scent leaves me feverish, needy… dangerously ready to kneel. He tries to keep his distance. He fails miserably. I didn’t know I was an Omega. I didn’t know wolves existed. And I definitely didn’t know my body was made to belong to him. Adrian was promised by a political treaty to another Omega. Wanting me is illegal. Marking me could start a war. And yet, every time he pins me against the office wall, every time his teeth brush my neck, every time his rough voice growls “you’re mine”… I melt. My heat awakens out of control. Desire turns into pain. And the Alpha inside him starts losing the battle. When enemies try to steal me to use me as political leverage, Adrian goes insane. He kills for me. He lies for me. He breaks ancient laws for me. And finally… he marks me. Now I officially belong to him. Body. Soul. Wolf. The Council wants to tear us apart. The promised Omega wants to destroy me. And my body starts changing in a way no male Omega ever has before. He is the Alpha who should reject me. I am the Omega who could destroy his world. But he would rather burn everything down… than live without me.
