ABO; Marked by Destiny

: Forced by a cold contract to marry Damian Blackwood, a Supreme Alpha known for his heart of ice, Ryan expects only indifference. What he doesn't expect is that Damian's contempt is actually a mask for a devastating trauma: the disappearance of the one he swore most to protect years ago, which left the Alpha terrified of his own capacity to love.

When a night of instinct, sealed by an unexpected marking, results in an unplanned pregnancy, the fragile balance between them shatters. Haunted by the ghosts of the past and convinced that the pregnancy is a death sentence for his Omega, Damian makes a drastic decision to "save" Ryan: he plans to isolate him in a maximum-security clinic. To Ryan, however, this intention sounds like a deadly threat to his child.

Misinterpreting his husband's actions as a plan to eliminate the baby, Ryan flees, taking with him only a secret and a fierce determination to protect his pup at all costs. Now, hidden in an isolated village and building a nest far from the man who swore to protect him, he is pursued by a desperate Alpha fighting his own demons and real external enemies.

In a world where instinct screams louder than reason, two broken hearts must learn that protecting does not mean imprisoning, and that the greatest risk of all is failing to trust in love.

A story of healing, secrets, and redemption in the Omegaverse universe, where the only way to save the future is to face the ghosts of the past.
