  Summary

  Liam Payne, a cold and ruthless Alpha lecturer, despises Omegas. Zayn Malik, the most brilliant Omega student, despises the way the world sees him. When their paths cross, something forbidden, dangerous, and stronger than the Academy’s laws is born.

  An elite academy trains Alphas to become future leaders, while Omegas are shaped into perfect partners. Liam Payne, a law and politics lecturer, is known for his coldness and disdain towards Omegas. Zayn Malik, the brightest student of his class, seeks respect, not pity. When Liam tries to break him, he doesn’t realise he’ll end up ensnared by his own instincts, desires, and forbidden emotions.
