As a recessive omega he finds the dominant alpha irresistibly charismatic and fiercely loyal. The problem is the feelings are mutual. Despite their differences, the lovers embark on a dangerous quest that gets them more than they bargain for when they encounter murder, deception and the gift of everlasting love.

Aster lived his whole life in an isolated town, in a large forested area. Mostly left to it's own devices, unimpeded by the sole government on the continent. The Midnight Order. Until one day he was forced out into the world, searching for answers and revenge. But little did he know, the world was much larger and complex then he could've imagined. (The title and synopsis are tentative and may end up changing later) - I'm gonna try to work on this more over the next few months/year. My younger brother died recently, so I think working on this will help me a bit. Keep myself busy, you know. I personally don't see a future where this story does well enough to prompt me to work on it regularly, so I'll probably write a few chapters here and there then post them one at a time. I really would prefer to have my story made into a webcomic or something, but I don't have any connections or funds to get an artist/team of artists to draw everything -

The world's messed up. Monsters started falling from the sky. Flesh-eating creatures that almost wiped out Humanity.But then, people began to awaken strange abilities—Gifts, they called them. Supernatural powers that gave us a fighting chance. With these new abilities, we fought back, and for a while, it seemed like we were winning. Life slowly started to return to something that resembled normal. That is, until the Curses began. No one knows where they came from or why they started, but one thing was clear: they weren’t Gifts. They were something darker, twisted, as if reflecting the worst parts of humanity. People whispered that the Cursed were dangerous, unstable. Some even believed they were monsters in human skin. I used to think having a Gift would be the best thing that could ever happen to me. I dreamed of it, even. Too bad I didn’t get mine until the darkest moment of my life. And it wasn’t a Gift at all. But hey, like I said before, the world’s messed up.
