On a border planet where federal law has ceased to function, top Alpha Chang Heng is an anomaly. He has no heat cycle and no desire to mark anyone. He suppresses his icy, cedar-like pheromones to the utmost, all to shut out the trauma of his past.
After a space station explodes, he runs into Mao Xiu, a haughty Omega cat pretending to be a Beta. Mao Xiu talks tough but has a soft heart. He shivers from the cold but refuses to show weakness, and though he’s scared, he insists on acting as if he doesn’t care. Yet the sweet, milky scent of a kitten betrays his Omega identity, slipping into Chang Heng’s frozen heart.
In the bitter cold of an abandoned planet, Chang Heng takes off his coat and wraps it around Mao Xiu as he trembles. Amid a pheromone storm, Chang Heng uses his dominance to shield him. When Mao Xiu’s heat spirals out of control, Chang Heng struggles between instinct and restraint, but never forces him into anything.
From being forced to travel together to saving each other, from the currents of pheromones to a bond that seems fated, what will become of these partners, whose pheromones are 99% compatible, when a conspiracy among the Federation’s leaders comes to light and old traumas resurface? Can they break through the restricted zones and find an eternal bond among the dust of the stars?
Cool and restrained Alpha × Haughty, sharp-tongued Omega
In a world where pheromones rule instinct, they break every rule with love and trust.
