After years of serving Earth in the Space Corps, Lieutenant Azure Lynwood only really wants one thing; to be able to publicly acknowledge his alpha lover, Major Tor Savan, and to begin building a life together.

As a result of the missile strike, the laboratories that manufacture omegas’ hormonal suppressants have been destroyed, which means that every single omega on Earth will soon be forced to go through a heat.
