Ascension : Dawn Of The Third Evolution

Maximillian's hands cupped Julian's face, his thumbs tracing the soft contours of the latter's jaw. He leaned in, their breaths mingling in an exchange of pheromones. Julian felt the heat radiating from Maximillian's body, his own heart hammering a frantic rhythm against his ribs. Only a whisper of space separated their lips from each other. Maximillian's voice was a husky sigh against Julian's mouth. "If you don't want this, push me away." The challenge hung heavy in the air, but Julian met it head-on. "I do," he whispered, his voice thick with desire. In a single, fluid motion, he closed the distance, his lips meeting Maximillian's in a kiss that was both hesitant and hungry. ------------------ A catastrophic meteorite impact triggered the first evolution. A devastating global viral pandemic forced the second evolution. Insatiable human greed drove the third evolution. What does it feel like to play hide-and-seek with your enemy during the day, and entangle with him during the night? Julian Haas, a male omega, formerly known as Laurent Krausser, shot Atticus Bates, a male alpha responsible for his father's demise. The murder attempt failed and ended in an explosive collapse, landing Julian in a hospital. The National Bureau of Security, tasked with investigating the fiery demise of the building, brought alpha Maximillian Grant face-to-face with the enigmatic omega, the only other survivor of the tragedy. Intent on gaining a second chance for revenge, Julian started to approach Maximillian. Unable to resist Julian's seductive advances, Maximillian was soon drowning in not only the omega's intoxicating scent but also the murky secrets at the heart of the third evolution. Warning tag : NOT a slow burn romance, a lot of smut scenes

For all I can remember, she loved me with all her heart.

------------

The car hummed along the highway, the engine's usual low purr a mere whisper against the suffocating silence that had settled between them. Maximillian stole a glance at the boyfriend sitting next to him. The only sound saturating the air was the faint click-clack of the keyboard as Julian's fingers danced across his laptop. The screen's cool blue glow cast an unnatural light on his face, deepening the shadows in his eyes.

Maximillian cleared his throat.

"How was your day, my love?"

"Mm. Good."

Unease slithered through Maximillian like a serpent of ice, its scales scraping against his bones. A paralyzing chill settled deep within him, freezing not just his blood, but the very marrow of his existence.

Maximillian cleared his throat again.
