After years of serving Earth in the Space Corps, Lieutenant Azure Lynwood only really wants one thing; to be able to publicly acknowledge his alpha lover, Major Tor Savan, and to begin building a life together. But centuries of tradition and ingrained social biases are not so easily swept aside, and when Space Corps brass finds out about their affair, Tor is swiftly arrested. Thankfully, help is on the way. Tor assures Azure that he's friends with a brilliant lawyer who specialises in alpha and omega cases. The news is heartening... until Azure finds out that Tor's flashy new lawyer is none other than Ethan McCallum, the omega who first taught Tor how to go through a heat, all those years ago. But Ethan has an agenda all his own. Though brilliant, he's also manipulative, underhanded, and doggedly determined to get his own way as he stirs the pot of social unrest and attempts to rewrite the injustices of history. And so, as tensions heat and centuries of social customs are called into question, Azure will have to make a choice: team up with his arch nemesis or wave goodbye to his and Tor's happily ever after.
