Easter is approaching and Lord Cuthbert ‘Cuddy’ Trenton’s mate, Viscount Henry Caldwell is planning both a fabulous ball and a journey. Against a backdrop of political turmoil of which his family is at the center, Cuddy is resistant to change while Henry revels in it. As an omega, Lord Trenton must bend to his alpha’s wishes, but before the pair can agree on their plans, their lives are upset by something more significant than who the king is sleeping with and more remarkable than a holiday or gossiping alphas and omegas. And Cuddy is uncertain whether Henry is ready for the challenge. This story is a 5000-word short which continues the story begun in The Omega’s Gamble.
