Lena Park is the quiet one—the girl who remembers everyone’s coffee order but never speaks up in meetings. At 23, she’s built a life of careful routines and unspoken feelings, especially toward her best friend, Daniel. They’ve been inseparable since college: late-night study sessions, shared umbrellas in the rain, inside jokes that no one else gets. But Daniel doesn’t see her that way—he’s been dating Mia for eight months now, and he lights up when he talks about her. Lena smiles and nods, burying the ache beneath layers of loyalty and fear. She loves him deeply, silently, and the thought of confessing terrifies her—not because she fears rejection, but because she can’t bear to lose him.

Lena Voss was born a beta in a world that worships alphas and pities omegas. From childhood, she was invisible—too weak to dominate, too unremarkable to nurture. Society ignored her, institutions underserved her, and even her family treated her like an afterthought. She grew up watching doors slam shut, hearing whispers of 'at least she's not an omega' as if that were comfort. But at 28, Lena snapped. She quit her soul-crushing job, sold everything, and vanished into the city’s underbelly—determined to live loud, free, and unapologetically for herself. So why do her two alpha best friends, the ones who once swore they’d protect her, keep showing up in her rearview mirror?

Haunted by her late father's legacy as a Private Investigator, she can't resist uncovering the truth. But when the secrets she seeks involve her own brother and best friend, will her relentless curiosity lead to betrayal or reveal a hidden truth too dark to bear? Dive into a tale of shattered trust, forbidden crushes, and the dangerous pursuit of answers.
