"Startling in its brutality, the Alpha's Claim series is a sensual masterpiece which glorifies in its own unflinching depiction of the most base of human nature.” - Zoe Blake, USA Today bestselling author Jacques I rule with opulence and indulge the aristocracy’s depravities and sin. Keeping them obedient and reliant on my good favor. And I know what they most desire. Omegas. But not one has been born in Bernard Dome in generations. Or so we thought. Brenya, a genius engineering grunt, has come into bloom. And before another might snatch her up, I claim the precious flower for myself. No more will she slave repairing the Dome, now she will serve only me while I teach her what it means to worship an Alpha king. Brenya I was happy as a Beta. I had purpose and pride in maintaining the Dome. But one mistake, one accident, one injury, and all that was taken away. Jacques tells me I’m special now, that’s why he’s allowed to touch me. That’s why he can do whatever he desires—because he is Alpha and I am something called an Omega. When I don’t obey, he threatens my friends. When I do, I’m never good enough. I cannot live up to Jacques’s impossible expectations; my mind doesn’t work that way. But it does know how to take the Dome apart bolt by bolt, and I will if I have to. I will do whatever it takes to escape the affections of Commodore Jacques Bernard. Jules Thólos taught me many lessons. Such as, a ruler must feed those who keep him in power, or be eaten by them. Jacques Bernard is desperate to appease the envious Alphas of his court, certain that if he throws them some Omegas, his chosen mate will be safe and his continued control will be assured. The man is desperate enough to make a deal with the devil. Me. Shepherd wants orange tress for his recovering Claire, and I want… everything. So here I stand, Ambassador Havel, on foreign soil, invited in. If only they knew what I was going to do to them. Starting with Brenya Perin.
