Catalyst

No heat. No bond. No pack. Just a label burned into my skin: defective omega.I buried my instincts and lived as a beta-quiet, pretty, and useful. Even when the man I gave everything to revealed who he really was, I stayed. To survive, I kept my head down, hoping it was just a phase of his rise to power.Amid the chaos, I clawed my way into Halo's militia and earned a spot on Sentinel Squad, the elite unit called in when the city turns deadly.I thought it would be a fresh start. But the moment I walked into the squad room, everything shifted.A silent alpha captain whose hands could break me-or worship me.A brooding lieutenant with haunted eyes that linger too long.His wicked twin who flirts like sin and dares me to break the rules.A golden beta whose smile and voice make my pulse race.And a feral delta who circles like he's waiting for me to unravel him.The world is collapsing around us. Riots flare, high-profile deaths are "accidents," and citizens vanish.Home offers no refuge. My partner is colder, distant, unpredictable. He has too much power, and I can't leave.After nights of walking on glass at home, every day walking into work feels like stepping into fire. Every look, every touch from my squad awakens a need I can't resist, and every spark of desire feels like a betrayal of the life I've fought to hold together.How do I survive when everything is imploding?Or worse-what if I'm the spark that sets it all ablaze?
