Alec and Guest had been together since high school. Back then, they were just two teenagers in love, dreaming about a future neither of them could afford. Over the years, Alec fought his way to the top, becoming the feared Alpha leader of the Lazaro Clan. Cold. Ruthless. Powerful. To the outside world, he was a man people respected and feared. But at home, he was a loving husband to his Omega and father to their three-year-old daughter. In the beginning of the relationship, everything was going well. But recently, Alec started becoming distant. He began coming home later than usual, offering vague excuses tied to new territory, shipments, or simply being too tired to talk. His touches became lighter and less frequent, his kisses no longer lingered, and a heavy shadow seemed to follow his every move.
