The Still Point [ManxMan]

Felix Ivanov doesn't need anyone. He's a principal dancer-an omega prodigy who built walls of ice and discipline around himself long before he ever set foot on a stage. When a scandal costs him everything at the most prestigious ballet academy in Russia, he accepts a calculated offer from Golden Hills University in Santa Sierra California looking to buy his prestige with a full scholarship, housing and amenities, as well as provided textbooks. Felix makes a mental vow: He'll dance, he'll win, and he'll strip The Lavrentiev Imperial School of Classical Dance of its prestige. He will make everyone who ever doubted him, regret it. No attachments. No distractions. No Alphas with perfectly symmetrical faces, pheromones like a biohazard, and childish tattoos who think they are going to own him.

Kei Matherson has spent years managing a biology so intense that it terrifies him. Born to two Alpha parents, his dual-genes make everything from normal instincts to biological imperatives hit harder than anyone else's-his rut could be labeled category 5 on a hurricane scale, his pheromones were guerilla warfare, and a suppressant dose so high it'd probably tranquilize a horse, his self control is a hard-won discipline forged in the fear of always being too much. He's never met an omega who could keep up with him, and he'd long since given up looking... when a sharp-tongued Russian dancer moves into the apartment next door, Kei is drawn into his gravity-despite the fact that every warning sign screamed that he'd bolt the moment anyone got close enough to really know him.

In a world where biology and destiny intertwine, every relationship comes with a price. But some bonds can't be locked away-and some debts aren't meant to be repaid. They're meant to be appreciated.
