Pavel Ivanov has spent seven years being exactly what the Kovalev bratva needs him to be: a sharp-minded beta strategist who asks no favors and draws no attention. The truth — that he's an omega running on black-market suppressants and carefully maintained lies — is a secret he's prepared to take to his grave. The brotherhood's traditions are clear: omegas belong at home, not in operations. Pavel belongs in operations. He has no intention of changing that.
Then his suppressants are tampered with, and he's sent on a deep cover assignment with Maksim Petrov — a new enforcer with traditional views and inconvenient observational skills — posing as a bonded couple in a one-bedroom apartment.
When Pavel's heat arrives and his cover begins to collapse, he does the only thing he can: he tells Maksim the truth and makes him swear an oath. No matter what Pavel says in the heat. No matter what he begs for. Maksim will not touch him.
Maksim keeps his word.
What follows changes everything Pavel thought he knew about strength, vulnerability, and what it means to be truly known by another person.
But someone else has known Pavel's secret for years — and has his own plans for what happens next.
Without Suppression is a high-heat M/M omegaverse romance set in the Russian bratva. It features a competent omega who refuses to be anyone's weakness, an alpha who learns everything he believed was wrong, a villain who thinks love and possession are the same thing, and a relationship built on the most radical act Pavel has ever attempted: letting someone see him as he actually is.
Genre: Gay Romance
