Summary
After the most traumatizing experience a young Omega could survive, Shane Hollander is left with the conviction of being entirely broken, and the perpetual fear of Alphas. All except for one.
Ilya Rozanov, for all of his brash cockyness and fuckboy reputation, has never been perceived as a threat from Shane. He's the one Shane instinctively seeks refuge right after what happens to him. And he's still the one he comes back to every time he needs stability.
Years passes, and their rivalry becomes a friendship so deep none of them could think of his life without the other anymore. It would be so easy to give in and cross that thin border between them, finally acknowledging their mutual attraction. But Shane still think of himself as something less because of what they did to him: why Ilya would want to bond with a broken Omega, when such an amazing Alpha could have anyone he wants? And Ilya is so caught up in his supportive friend role, that the mere idea of overstepping and risking to scare away Shane, it's unbearable for him.
It needs for them five years, a pup yearning from Shane, and a bold offer from Ilya, to finally cross that border.
