Souta Tachibana thought he was hilarious mocking the omegaverse. He read his coworker's trash novels for entertainment, laughed at the absurdity, and completely forgot about them when a fatal accident ended his ordinary office life. Everything changes when he wakes as Lucien d'Armoire, a forgotten beta noble in the empire of Aetheria. His new life promises to be mercifully uneventful—until the morning he's violently ill and his doctor delivers impossible news: Baron d'Armoire is pregnant. But that's not feasible. Lucien is male. He's heterosexual. Betas cannot conceive. Except none of that is true. The shocking revelation surfaces: Lucien is no ordinary beta. He's a rare male omega, and a single drunken encounter with an alpha has resulted in this nightmare. Now faced with pregnancy, a mystery surrounding the father's identity, and zero paternal instincts, Lucien discovers that the ridiculous omegaverse he once dismissed is now his inescapable reality—and he's woefully unprepared for the consequences.
