Bonding should be instinct. But what if none of us are ready to follow it?

As a young omega raised in privilege, I’ve heard it all. That I’m lucky.

That I’m spoiled. That everything comes easy. But I’ve worked for every success I have—every internship, every late night, every carefully crafted design. I take pride in who I am: soft, emotional, touchy, and unapologetically proud of being an omega. I know what I want… And I want everything.

​

Love like my parents have. A bond that lasts. A nest that feels like home. So when my internship places me at the heart of Opus Media—in a world where omegas are expected to model the clothes not create them—I don’t know what to do with the heat curling in my chest when my scent drives four powerful men to distraction. Evander brings me diamonds and makes promises like our future is inevitable. Isaac meets me in the quiet moments, steady and certain, even when I’m not. Harlan keeps me close and teaches me everything—except how he really feels.

And Silas? Silas watches from the shadows like he’s already mine… but he won’t make a move.

Bonding with anyone is out of the question unless it’s the real thing. The perfect thing. They could give me the world… if only they understood what I needed. But with careers and hearts on the line, none of us seems ready to take the leap.​ How can I claim my destiny, if this is my Reluctant Nest?
