Part of Series
Perhaps a beta can win an alpha's heart, but can he keep it? Alec is a rational person, a scientist. He knows there's some things you can't change. He can't be more outgoing, he can't stop worrying about what other people will think of him, and he can't stop being gay. But he's smart, smart enough to know he could be worse off. Even though his parents expect him to marry a woman, at least he's a beta and that means he can finish his degree before they start asking him questions he can't answer. He loves his degree and his family, even if he doesn't know how to talk to them. It's enough: he takes it easy, studies hard, and doesn't get in trouble. And then he meets an alpha wolf in a club and they hit it off. Gabriel is everything Alec isn't: powerful, confident, dominant, free. The last thing he expects is for Gabriel to come back for more after they spend a full moon together, and when he does, he can't bring himself to say no. Even if it would be sensible, even if it would be smart. With each kiss he falls deeper, with each embrace he needs more... Even though he knows a beta will never be allowed to keep an alpha for long.
Author
N.J. Lysk (pronouns: whatever) is a queer one—in almost every sense of the word—for whom stories have always been their one true home. She studied linguistics and literature (which is to say, someone offered him a genuine excuse to read professionally) and ended up teaching, but writing is their one true love. Addicted to angst, enamoured of mpreg and always ready to try a new kink (in a book, that’s it!) she became hooked into the Omegaverse through fanfic (but he doesn't have the patience to write other people's characters) and has recently expanded from werewolves to hockey players. Check out my shelves if you want some recommendations, including books that inspired me ;) Books can be acquired directly from the website at a reduced rate—new releases also become available there earlier.
