Lucian had always lived in the shadows of roaring engines and blazing lights. A scentless omega 
with grease-stained hands and a mind sharp enough to fix any bike, he built dreams for others, because omegas weren’t allowed to race. Not in a world ruled by alphas and their pheromones.
But when Lucian’s boyfriend betrays him with another omega, everything falls apart. Heartbroken yet defiant, he vows to reclaim his pride at THE REAGENTS the biggest racing event of the year, even if he can’t ride. The only problem? He needs an alpha to represent his work on the track.
Enter Hunter, his estranged stepbrother, a dominant alpha who once swore he’d never go near an omega, let alone help one. Cold, confident, and dangerously alluring, Hunter makes an unexpected offer:
“I’ll be your rider.”
Then comes Ethan, the ex who let him down when Lucian needed him most now desperate for a second chance. Two powerful alphas, one scentless omega, and a storm of pride, regret, and desire that could burn hotter than any engine.

Clara flinched at Mrs. Gray's sudden rise, nearly smudging her freshly applied lipstick.


"Gal, what's going on? You scared my fragile soul," she said, pressing a dramatic hand to her chest.


Mrs. Gray stood frozen for a second, phone still clenched in her palm. The music outside swelled, applause erupting as Tracy hit a high note, yet inside her head everything rang hollow ,like sound echoing in an empty corridor. She swallowed hard.


"I-I… I gotta go somewhere," she managed, voice thin and uneven.


Clara's eyes widened in instant alarm. "Wait, what's going on? Is it a fashion emergency?" Her tone shifted from playful to urgent in half a heartbeat ,the kind of urgency reserved for broken heels and public wardrobe disasters.
