   Summary

   Lucy was supposed to be an Alpha. She was supposed to take after her father and work alongside him at Vault-Tec and continue his legacy. Only she's not an Alpha, she's an Omega, and that changes everything. Nothing is certain anymore.
   Cooper Howard just bought a ranch upstate, he heads back home to take Janey to come stay there with him, and somehow gets saddled with taking his daughter's babysitter with them. Did he mention that she's a newly presented Omega, and that he's very quickly falling for her?

   (Takes place two years before the bombs drop.)
