Publisher's Note: If you're looking for a super SWEET omega verse with enthusiastic consent before action, this is NOT the book for you. Prey is a FANTASY (not even vaguely close to the real world) book on the medium-dark scale of omega verse with LOTS of domestic discipline (think hands and belts) and consent driven by the heroine hero response to pheromones. Trust that our heroine is a sweet and stubborn brat, and if she gets into a tussle with her mates, it's so she can test they're worthy. Our heroes embrace their role in claiming and protecting their mate seriously and adore their sweet charge.I am prey.This is not pity talking, this is an acknowledgment of a fact.I am small and weak; I am an Omega. I am a prize that men war over.For a year I have hidden in the distant corner of the Empire.But I am running out of food, and I am running out of options.That I must leave soon is not a decision for today, though, but a decision for tomorrow.Only tomorrow's choices never come.For tonight brings strangers who remind me that I am prey.
