The Drop

Synopsis

Felix Ward has a secret that could end his career: he's an omega, hiding his designation from the entire PHA. His suppressants keep his scent muted, his heats controlled—and no one suspects a thing. Then Leonid Sorokin, his alpha rival and secret hookup, leaves him cold in a Solara hotel room. The rejection triggers something Felix has never experienced before: a hormone crash so severe it mimics a brutal flu. He can't eat, can't sleep, can't play. His scent turns sour. His teammates start to notice. When Felix's performance tanks during a Westfield game, Leonid finally smells what's wrong. The alpha who made him sick is also the only one who can fix it. Leonid brings Felix home, offers him a nest, feeds him, fucks him, holds him. In Leonid's bed, surrounded by his scent, Felix begins to heal. But the real question is: what happens when this is over? When Felix goes back to Kingsport, back to hiding, back to pretending he doesn't need Leonid Sorokin—when his body already knows the truth? A story about biology, vulnerability, and the terrifying intimacy of being known.
