The Corvale Succession: An M/’M Omegaverse Dark Romance

An heir who fights wars from the inside. A bodyguard who’s never been outmaneuvered — until now. And a contract that will cost them both everything they’ve spent years protecting.

Sylvain Corvale doesn’t need saving. He needs a weapon — one sharp enough to survive a family that has already tried to kill him twice, a father who finds the question of succession entertaining, and a world that has quietly decided an omega was never meant to hold power. When he hires a bodyguard with a sealed past and a price tag designed to make ordinary men look away, he isn’t buying protection. He’s making a move on a board no one else can see.

Kier has spent eleven years standing at the shoulders of people who frightened easily and thought slowly. He has never once been outmaneuvered in an interview — not until a stillness-radiating omega with a classified threat assessment and a greenhouse full of secrets spends twenty minutes dismantling every assumption Kier walked in with. The job is wrong. The client is dangerous in ways that have nothing to do with the enemies circling him. And Kier, against a decade of careful, deliberate numbness, is interested — a feeling he buried once before, and it cost him everything.

The succession war is already running. The alpha heir is charming, patient, and two moves ahead of everyone except the brother he’s trying to erase. The household is instrumented, the allies are compromised, and the consensus — quiet, polite, utterly lethal — has already written Sylvain’s ending. Inside a family where every courtesy is a message and every gift is a caption, two men who trust no one are learning, against their will, to trust each other.

In a game where biology is weaponized and loyalty is the most dangerous thing either of them could offer — can they hold the line together before the war inside these walls takes the one thing neither of them planned to risk?
