In a semi-dystopian world, designations and dynamics of Alphas, Betas and Omegas have corroded. They devolved, some traits going extinct. With no Alpha instinct to care for them, Omegas have to go to extremes to survive. One of the most coveted positions are available at the infamous Inferno establishment. Four owners of the Inferno (and controlling the whole region) are Alphas above Alphas, what they decree happens. They're apex predators. What if one of them decides to own you?

warnings: dark; dub-con bordering on non-con; power imbalance; semi-dystopian; no knotting; various forms of branding/marking;

This started as a story for Alpha Ari, but writing it and creating that world I already knew I will write for each of the four Apex Alphas.
