THE ABANDONED ONE
Prince Aerion of House Valor was never meant to be a headline. As one of the world’s rare male Omegas—and the center of a scandal that nearly toppled the monarchy—he was hidden away behind palace walls and silenced by the weight of tradition. The public forgot him. His family did too. But solitude shaped Aerion into something far stronger than anyone anticipated: fiercely intelligent, emotionally guarded, and quietly ambitious. While the world assumed he was delicate, he was earning degrees in economics, mastering martial arts, and waiting for the moment he'd finally take control of his own life.
That moment never comes on his terms.
When political tensions threaten to destabilize the monarchy, King Theron—Zenith’s reigning Alpha, and Aerion’s estranged cousin by law—is forced to marry for the sake of the crown. He agrees, expecting a pliant Omega who’ll fulfill ceremonial duties and provide a politically advantageous heir. What he doesn’t expect is Aerion: sharp-tongued, emotionally armored, and absolutely unwilling to be anyone’s pawn.
Their first meeting is a clash of worlds—Theron, all control and calculation; Aerion, all fire and frost. To the press, they’re a fairytale reborn. Behind palace doors, they’re anything but. Resentments simmer. Power shifts. And underneath the arguments and awkward silences, something electric begins to build—desire, and maybe even the beginnings of trust.
But nothing stays private in a royal court. As anti-Omega factions and conservative power-players plot to remove Aerion from the line of succession, the couple must decide if their reluctant union can survive the pressure—or transform into something real. Theron, once immovable in his ideals, must confront the uncomfortable truth: the Omega he once underestimated may be the kingdom’s greatest asset. And Aerion, for all his walls, must choose whether love is a risk worth taking—especially when carrying a royal heir could mean becoming even more of a target.
The Abandoned One is a story of legacy, autonomy, and the tension between love and duty in a modern monarchy. It’s about two men redefining what it means to rule, to belong, and to be strong—in their own way, on their own term
