Top-Class Plaything

Aster is a shy, hardworking Dominant Omega who has always done his best to keep his carefully ordered life on track. Yet even his diligence cannot spare him from being abandoned at his most vulnerable moment—left completely alone by his careless boyfriend just as his heat cycle sets in, Aster finds himself trapped as his body turns against him, the punishing symptoms growing harder and harder to bear. Just as he reaches the edge of his endurance, rescue arrives from the last place he expected: Mr. Xin, his cold and distant Dominant Alpha boss. Stepping in when no one else will, Xin saves Aster by marking him, forging an intimate bond between them that neither man ever anticipated. Now, what was once a simple employer-and-employee dynamic has become something far more entangled. Bound together by an act born of desperation, Aster and Xin must navigate a relationship complicated by duty, pride, and a closeness neither of them asked for—but can such an unexpected connection ever grow into something more?
