In a world where alphas dominate, Ella, an omega, has always felt like an outcast, living in fear under the watchful eye of a ruthless alpha. After six years of hiding, she finds a semblance of peace with the caring Prestford Pack, only for her past to catch up with her. Forced to flee to the Omega Academy, a place designed to mold omegas into submissive mates, Ella confronts her deepest fear, falling back into the hands of the alpha she once ran from.

At the Academy, she meets others like her, discovering strength in their shared experiences. As she begins to embrace her identity, Ella must navigate her growing pride while plotting her escape. With danger looming from the alpha she once fled, Ella faces a pivotal choice: to reclaim her freedom or risk everything for love.

Ella Jones only wants one thing, to keep her secret no matter the cost. For the past seven years after running away from home, she was able to manage it. She kept herself in the clear on her suppressants, no matter how they drained her bank account. She found a job she was good at working in the Prestford University library archives. She even made a friend who is the only person left in the world who knows what she's really hiding.

Ella is an omega, and no matter what the romance novels say, she knows it only means one thing. Danger.

One slip-up, and everything comes crashing down, and it doesn't help that there's a pack of stunning men breathing down her un-bonded neck. They may want to love and cherish her the way an omega is meant to be, but she knows that it is too good to be true.

She wants to trust them. She wants to believe love like this exists, but Ella already knows that some things aren't meant to last forever.

Not falling in love.

And certainly not keeping the past from catching up to her.

When Ella Jones decides to take a chance on date after years of hiding who she is from everyone, she can't help herself but start to fall in love with the beta who calls her beautiful. But now, her secret is out. There's no denying what she is, not only Cal, but his entire pack.

An omega.

Ella wants to trust the pack who don't act like any alphas she's previously known all to well. She wants to believe the love they want to offer her exists, but Ella already knows that some things aren't meant to last forever.

Not falling in love.

And certainly not keeping the past from catching up to her.
