Myrtle likes a quite life, but that goes to hell when her life is drained. Help comes in a surprising offer from strangers, and she finds she isn’t alone. An alpha is in the same condition, and help has arrived. Myrtle had just taken a break from work when agonizing pain struck her. An ambulance ride later, she finds out that she is suffering from mate rejection. The only curious thing is that she didn’t have a mate. She hadn’t even met the bugger. Her life force was bleeding out, and there wasn’t any way to stop it. Time passes, and the Elite take an interest in her demise. As death closes in, Myrtle gets irritated and restless. She sneaks past her friends, who guard her door, and heads to a late-night coffee shop. The proprietor greets her, and they chat for a while until a chance contact explains the issue with Myrtle. She’s an Elite omega, as is the shop owner, and it explains the interest in making sure that she dies expressed by the Elite. Myrtle meets two men who are pinch hitters in case of an alpha fatality. They introduce her to the remaining member of her two fated mates, and his situation is only marginally better than hers. They discuss, they negotiate, and at the end of it, Myrtle just wants to survive. She will put up with too many alphas if it means finishing her manuscript and getting on with her life. She just needs an office and a laptop. The rest will take care of itself.
