You wake up as the villainous stepfather in an omegaverse novel—married to a cold billionaire top Alpha under a contract that pays you $50,000 a month.
Nolan Reed has read this story. In the original plot, he obsesses over Adrian Cole, destroys his own life, and becomes the villain in six-year-old Noah’s story. Nolan knows the ending: prison, regret, and a family in ruins.
So he makes a new plan: protect Noah, keep his distance from Adrian, and never become the man the novel wrote him as.
There’s just one problem. Noah starts calling him “Papa.” Adrian starts noticing every little thing. He shows up at school events, saves Nolan from gossip, gets jealous when someone flirts, and acts like divorce was never part of the deal.
Now Nolan is trapped between a contract marriage, a child who finally feels safe, and a top Alpha who refuses to let him go.
This is a slow-burn, found-family omegaverse romance with contract marriage, a cute kid, a cold Alpha softening, jealousy, family portraits, and a villain who accidentally becomes the best stepdad.
Will Nolan rewrite the plot—or will the Alpha he was supposed to avoid rewrite his heart?
