I’ve never belonged in high society.
Born into privilege and groomed to be the perfect Omega, I am expected to be quiet, obedient, and focused only on securing a mate. But that’s not me. I’m too opinionated, too restless, too defiant.
That’s how I find myself atthe Black Briar, a bar that reeks of smoke, whiskey, and danger—about as far from my world as I can get. It’s owned by two Alphas who rule the fringes of society with sharp smiles and bloodstained hands.
Killian is reckless and smooth-talking, all charm and mischief. Xavier is cold, calculated, and impossible to rattle. They are everything I’ve been warned to avoid.
And now, they’re my only hope.
It’s my Season now, and the Monarch and the infamous gossiper, Queen Bee, have set their sights on me. One scandal, one well-placed whisper, and my reputation—and my family’s—is at risk. That means I’m going to need protection from men who don’t follow the rules.
I swore I’d never take a mate, but now I want two. But being with them means crossing a line I can never uncross. Because in their world, power is taken,not given, and once an Omega belongs to an Alpha—or in my case, two—there’s no going back.
For those too bold to blend in.
Psst…
Hey, Hivemind. Miss me?
Well, I’m back and it’s that time again.
So—
Get your gossip radars polished and pointed to the streets because a new Season is getting ready to rumble.
Has it really been a year?
Teapots ready to pour? Because yes it has.
A year’s a long time.
Let’s do a quick catch up!
Jelli Jones ran off with a rake of a rich man, so she’s off the Omega singles list. But you probably heard about that already. Her mother hasn’t shut up about it since.
Claire Simons is putting on weight. Now, come closer because we do NOT fat shame here. But she’s been seen getting cozy with an eligible Alpha and has pulled out of the Season.
What do you suspect that’s about?
Is there a future baby announcement a-coming?
Pin this spot.
We’ve had our share of noteworthy matings last Season, too. From Lara to Petra to Joan…
But the most talked about?
Our Luxe and her Emporian star, of course.
Asher and his mate, the blushing, virtuous Violet, have been living the dream as they go back and forth between their beach estate and the glitzy world of Emporia.
And with a little bundle on the way!
Their match is truly one to be envied.
But speaking of the Gardeners, there’s another flower about to make her debut. That’s if she can manage not to wilt under society’s ever-growing pressure.
