And in a world where humans have mixed with other species such as gods, demons, elves, witches, Ren was a human of pure blood.However, from a young age, he had been able to see what others cannot. A mere glance could kill. A single touch could heal. Born with a cursed blessing—the power to both save and destroy—Ren was bound and raised by the temple, blindfolded and used as a living weapon. For years, they unleashed his power against their greatest enemy: the Ravhara Kingdom, with whom war had raged for centuries.But after taking too many lives, Ren couldn’t bear the guilt and the nightmares haunting him. He escaped and crossed the border into Ravhara kingdom, hiding his identity.

As if he wasn’t there in the first place.Everything was going smoothly… until one night, the general followed the sweet scent of an omega—only to find Ren, his personal attendant, standing there.Him? An Omega in heat?But that couldn’t be. He didn’t any hire Omega, and Betas weren’t supposed to have a scent. So certainly… he had to be an Omega hiding his identity.And it was the very servant who screamed, “DEMON!” on their first meeting.Zayden becomes consumed with the need to find out the truth. But as desire clashes with hatred, and secrets unravel, one thing becomes dangerously clear: The servant he thought was ordinary, is far more than he appeared.How long can Ren keep his identity buried?And what happens when an Alpha who only wants to claim… meets an omega who was never meant to be touched?DISCLAIMER:This story is set in a fictional, fantasy, omegaverse (ABO) universe.

She was literally half naked.“Hey...” her greeting came out in a slur, and that was all he needed to know she was drunk. Very drunk, at that.“Why?” he asked simply, knowing she would interpret his question as she usually did.“I...I visited them today.

I happen to know a way to make you cry and keep you excited at the same time,” he said.“Really?”“Wanna try it, Mama?”Avery nodded, slowly but firmly as he closed the distance between them.As he promised, she did cry...in pleasure.
