In the Avaly Empire, every Omega is adored, valued and respected. Every Omega… except Cadiz Von Eberhart.

Born with neither pheromones nor holy powers, Cadiz is the shame of his family and is always in the shadows of his twin brother, Cassius. 

On their twentieth birthday, Cassius receives thirty seven marriage proposals, but Cadiz receives only one, an unwanted match to Raizel Von Ashforde, the cold Alpha heir of the northern fortress who is rumored to despise Omegas.

To the empire, it is a humiliation. To Cadiz, it feels more like an exile.

But the Ashforde household holds more than stone walls and silence. Strange magic stirs at Cadiz’s touch, broken magical formations mend beneath his hands, and whispers of power long buried begin to rise.

 He is not a failure. He is something far rarer, far more dangerous, a Null Omega, the first seen in generations.


When secrets are exposed and loyalty is tested.
Cadiz is left to choose between staying the disgrace of his family... or rise as an Omega who could bring the empire to its knees.

I knew it the moment I woke up the next morning, gray light coming through the small window, the sound of the harbor already active below. I lay on the unfamiliar bed and stared at the ceiling and told myself clearly and rationally that staying in Sailcrest was the worst possible thing I could do for what remained of my sanity.


I'd already approached a stranger in the street and called him by a dead man's name.


What came next if I stayed? Following him home? Standing outside his shop in the dark? Becoming the kind of broken, frightening man that decent people crossed streets to avoid?


I should leave today. Pack my bag, settle my account with Petra, ride back to Draven lands and tell Father his plan hadn't worked, nothing would work, and at least at home I could fall apart in private without terrifying strangers who happened to have silver hair.
