The Gilded Cage By H_Torn

Julian Thorne is a lie.
In a world where Alpha and Omega dynamics dictate destiny, Julian successfully passes as a Beta. He is sharp, brilliant, and deeply resentful of the elite Alpha class-specifically, the ancient, predatory Vance legacy. For years, he has meticulously planned his vengeance, navigating the brutal corporate world using black-market suppressants. He is invisible. He is safe.
Until he locks eyes with Alistair Vance.
Alistair is the undisputed King of the Vance empire-ruthless, obsidian-eyed, and an "Unbonded Alpha" fighting his own volatile instincts. He needs control. He needs order. He is immediately, inexplicably drawn to the insubordinate Beta analyst with a tongue as sharp as broken glass.
When a crucial meeting pushes them into forced proximity, the impossible happens. Alistair smells through the suppressants. He recognizes the hidden scent of jasmine and thunderstorm underneath the artificial veneer.
Julian's secret is out.
Now, he is trapped in Alistair's gilded cage. He must choose: submit to the Alpha he loathes but desperately needs, or maintain his rebellion and risk Alistair breaking him in ways Julian never thought possible.
