Elias Ward can handle impossible deadlines. He can handle ruthless investors.
He cannot handle going into heat in a glass-walled boardroom.
As Hale & Co.'s overworked omega executive assistant, Elias has spent years staying invisible—doing the work, taking the hits, and swallowing every small humiliation that comes with being seen as "just an omega." This week's make-or-break investor presentation is his chance to prove he belongs in leadership… until his suppressant patch fails mid-meeting and his scent spikes in front of a room full of alphas.
Damon Hale, the company's icy, self-made alpha CEO, reacts like the man he's trained himself to be: controlled, prepared, and mercilessly responsible. He activates the emergency Company Heat Clause he wrote to prevent harassment, lawsuits, and harm—escorting Elias to the secret executive heat-safe penthouse high above the city, where winter rain streaks the windows and holiday lights blur into warm bokeh below.
Elias is furious. Trapped. Terrified of repeating a past workplace nightmare where desire became leverage and rumors became ruin. So he does the only thing that has ever kept him safe: he sets rules.
And Damon follows them—every line, every boundary, every checkbox—turning policy into protection and restraint into the hottest kind of devotion. As Elias's heat peaks, the penthouse stops feeling like a cage and starts feeling like the first place he's ever been wanted without being taken.
But morning brings the real danger: HR scrutiny, anonymous complaints, and a corporate world eager to reduce an omega's success to a scandal. To protect Elias—and everyone who comes after him—Damon must do the one thing CEOs hate most: tell the truth out loud. On the record. In the boardroom. With Elias at his side, not beneath him.
If you crave steamy, consent-forward M/M Omegaverse romance with boardroom tension, forced proximity, only-one-bed energy, and a hard-won HEA, step into the penthouse—then watch them rewrite the rules.
