Alpha of Shadows
(2026)(The first book in the Omegaverse Romance series)
A novel by Vi Carter and Joanna Maz
I stepped into the Shadow Court to save my brother. I didn't expect to walk out as the bonded omega of the monster who killed the man I loved.
Malakai is the ruthless Alpha Lord of Shadows—ancient, merciless, and terrifyingly beautiful. He murdered Asher with a smile on his lips and my name on his tongue. Then he claimed me as payment for a blood debt, forcing a bond that should have been my choice.
Now, I'm his omega in black silk and silver chains. Owned. Caged. Watched. My suppressants are gone, my heat is coming, and he's waiting.
And on our wedding night, he doesn't ask. He takes—my body, my breath, my resistance—until the bond snaps into place and I break. His bite. His rules. His shadows, wrapping around me like a noose while his alpha command makes me submit.
I swore I'd kill him. Instead, I'm presenting for him in the dark, my omega instincts betraying everything I am.
Because alpha monsters like Mal don't make love. They unmake you. But Malakai doesn't want love. He wants devotion. He wants me to beg, to bare my throat, to accept what he's made me.
And the worst part? I think I will.
**Author's Note:**
This book is an Omegaverse adaptation of my previously published work, *Crown of Light and Ashes* (Kingdom of Shadows Series Book 1). While the core storyline remains similar, this version has been reimagined for the Omegaverse universe with new character names, updated world-building, and alpha/omega dynamics. If you've read the original, you'll find familiar beats with exciting new twists. If this is your first time with this story—welcome to the shadows.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
