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

"He is a... difficult person to deal with."

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

"Pardon? Did you just say that he wanted to pay me a visit?"

A sense of unease gnawed at Miriam Schlinger when she heard the unexpected news.

"Yes," Byron Thorne's voice was heard from the other end of the line. He sounded rather carefree, oblivious of the turmoil growing in Miriam's heart. "You two have been acquainted for a long time. Now that he finally awoke from his coma, he was really interested to see the progress of the DOTTE Project with his own eyes."

"..."

A frown creased Miriam's brow as she chewed on her lower lip. The Atticus Bates she knew wouldn't cede control so readily. He wasn't one to hand over his life's work, content to watch from the sidelines and cheer another's triumph.

No, the Atticus she remembered was a fiercely competitive person, a trait she recognized in most alpha scientists of his caliber.
