Captured Omega
An omega on the run. A team of alphas on the hunt. A fight to the death.
I long to be free from those who hunt me, who want to capture and imprison me. But an omega like me can never truly be free. Built to breed, but yearning to live my life my way. That is, until I escape the confines of my captors only to find myself being hunted—and tempted—by a pack of alphas whose orders are catch and return. It seems death might be the only true escape.
I need to keep my enemies close in order to survive, but what happens when the line between my captors and me becomes blurred beyond all recognition? Will giving into my primal nature save me from a life of detention, or will the secrets between us unravel more than just our doomed fate?

My first time reading these authors and I was not disappointed! Captured Omega brings us a slight twist on the standard omegaverse with a concentration on the science behind designations. There’s a big evil that gives everyone a common enemy and takes the overall story to a very dark place. Olly is my absolute favorite member of the pack. Despite having a hard time understanding anything but facts, he evoked more emotion out of me than anyone. This is a dark omegaverse with spicy spiciness and an MMMMF romance!

Let me preface this with a warning: if you're looking for sweet, safe, and sedate, Captured Omega will eat your innocence for breakfast and lick its lips after. And I mean that in the best possible way.
I’ve long been a disciple of Ariel Dawn’s clean, no-fuss style — her writing doesn’t meander, it hunts. Every sentence lands with precision, and her characters? Always a delightful cocktail of grit, sensuality, and emotional damage you just want to fix (or… be ruined by, depending on the day). Pair her with the sharp and fearless A.J. Mullican, and what you get is nothing short of an inferno.
At the core of Captured Omega is Auryn — an omega on the run, scarred but gloriously unbroken. And Gage and his ragtag pack of mercenaries, hired to snatch her up. Seems straightforward, right? Oh honey, no. Nothing is what it seems, least of all the shady Orion pack. The deeper you go, the more your eyebrows will raise — and maybe your heart rate too.
And let’s talk about that pack:
Gage — alpha energy wrapped in steel and secrets.
Diego — charm incarnate, smooth as sin.
Emmett — rage, wounds, and a protective streak that had me feral.
Olly — our sweet beta on the spectrum, awkward, real, and completely lovable.
This is not just a spicy little romp in the woods (though, my stars, the spice level is positively volcanic). It's a story about trauma, found family, healing, and trust — all set in a richly crafted world that sucks you in and doesn’t let go.
Don’t ask me for a plot summary. That’s not how this book works. You don’t read Captured Omega, darling — you survive it. You feel it. You need a moment alone after every chapter.
Elegant prose, razor-sharp emotional beats, and characters you’ll ache for — with a generous side of smut so well-written it practically needs a fire extinguisher. I’m not saying this book changed my life… but I am saying my standards for Omegaverse romance may never recover.
Highly. Bloody. Recommend.

Complex,twisted and scorching hot!
Gage's pack of mercenaries is hired by Orion pack to capture their running omega but when they find her something is not right.The Orion pack is not what is seems,the truth is way more disturbing.
Auryn,an omega on the run,damaged but not broken
Gage,the pack lider
Diego,the charming alpha
Emmett ,full of rage
And Ollie ,the ackward beta with the espectre of autism
Not even going to summarize because you really need to read it!
Well written with a page turning plot ,often complex.
Excelent world building.
And unique characters well developed that steal your heart with their struggles in the path of healing and true love.
And the steamy scenes?Hotter than hell !
Highly recomend!

This was an interesting Omegaverse book. It was intense, but steamy. The book itself was well-written.
The characters were an interesting mix and the pack dynamic was quite complex. The story was pretty unique. There was a lot going on throughout the story, between the revenge and the pack dynamics and dealing with Auryn’s uniqueness.
Each of the men in Auryn's pack was quite unique and brought interesting perspectives to the story. Olly was probably my most favorite part of the story. I always love a great beta, and Olly was so well done and important to this pack's dynamic. Emmett was also a strong character that brought a lot to the story.
I definitely enjoyed the book.

Great book! Loved how this book started right in the midst of the action. Auryn was running from a tragic life she was thrust into so due to what happened there, she was pretty feral & slow to trust. There was great character development for all the characters but I have a soft spot for Olly, he’s so complex & interested in the science of why things happen. Ends in a HEA.

This book captured and had me hooked right from the beginning. It's definitely a dark omegaverse that has high action, nail-biting tension, plenty of twists and turns, and beautifully written and developed character relationships. High trauma, high comfort. Check triggers as there are a few. Overall, absolutely loved it.
