Storm: A Standalone Omegaverse Romance
Omegas are meant to follow the rules. Choose the right Pack. Keep the balance.
I rigged the lottery instead.
I wrote their name on the ticket—Pack Kingsley, the most powerful alphas in Crescent City—not because I wanted them. Because they lived closest to the exit. Closest to him. To Rook, the beta-born alpha who promised to wait for me.
It was supposed to be a distraction. Thirty seconds of chaos, then I'd disappear.
I didn't count on Jonathan throwing me over his shoulder on live television. I didn't count on Reed's white-knuckle grip on the steering wheel as he drove me to a penthouse I couldn't escape. And I definitely didn't count on Alexander—the twin I wasn't supposed to know about—looking at me like I was either going to save them or destroy everything they'd built.
Now I'm locked in a penthouse with a pack that doesn't want me, claimed by alphas I was never supposed to feel anything for. And Rook, the only alpha I trust is out there somewhere, risking his life to find me.
I had a plan. Fall in line. Buy time. Get out.
But the longer I stay, the more I realize this pack has secrets of their own. Dangerous ones. The kind the system would destroy them for. A hidden male omega they've been protecting for years. A bond between brothers that defies every rule. And a reason they took over the Omega House that has nothing to do with power.
The more their secrets unravel, the more mine tangle with theirs. And the more I realize that maybe I didn't just accidentally choose them... maybe some part of me knew.
The city is tearing itself apart over what I did. The authorities are closing in. And the men who were supposed to be my enemies? They're the only ones standing between me and the system that wants to break us all.
Rules be damned. I'm fighting for what's mine.
Storm is a standalone dystopian omegaverse romance with a fierce FMC who accidentally started a rebellion, possessive alphas who didn't want a mate, a hidden male omega, and a forbidden love that refuses to die. Includes MM and MMFMM+ scenes, multiple POVs, and a HEA.

Storm is an Omegaverse story with some suspense, forbidden love, and an omega who refuses to bend to the expectations the system has for her designation. (Of you want more detail on the book, read more after my review!) This is longer than usual because honestly, my brain hasn't been functioning at full power lately, so it's a mish-mash of my thoughts. Please bear with me!
MY REVIEW: I enjoyed it. There's multiple OV books out there that make it seem like omegas are fragile, softer, even a commodity. There's only two series that I can think of off hand where the government has this much control over them. This one is unique in the way that they're kept in a sort of 'prison' until they're given away as a prize to a pack not of their choosing, and only those packs who can afford the very steep price to enter the lottery. I love that Storm's actions lead to a rebellion that was desperately needed to try and take down the repressive system that was only looking out for the wealthy, even if she certainly didn't mean for that to happen. She's such a sassy, strong, rebellious woman who does what she wants and caves to no one if she can help it. The best part is that her personality doesn't change at all through the book. She doesn't suddenly become soft to her eventual alphas. They accept her for who she is, even if she isn't what a "good omega" is supposed to be, especially in their circles. She remains her spitfire self the whole time, and I love it.
So far, if you're comfortable with MM (there's a fair bit of it, it's MMMMFMM-ish), I recommend this series. It's got strong-willed FMCs, a corrupt government that is about to crumble thanks to the rebellion, a group with very diverse personalities, and so much more. Yeah, there's some smut, but there's great action and character growth, as well.
BONUS - Here's a random point I made a note of while reading the book:
When Storm was building her nest and arranging the fabrics the guys brought her, the author did a great job referring to some of the guys' roles in her life by the placement of each item. Perhaps I read too much into some of it, but here's my thoughts:
~Jonathan - He provided most of the materials, so it made the structure of the nest
~Alex - pillow is put in prominent position against the back wall
~Fox - Placed over Alex's pillow, so similar placement
~Frankie - front of the nest, first thing she'll see and get comforted by when she enters
~Reed - placed where the scent will surround her during the most intense moments
~Rook - "the heart of the nest"
So to me... Jonathan is Storm's rock, the bones of the pack. Alex and Fox are the support, the glue that keeps her together. Reed is her anchor in the metaphorical storm, keeping her grounded when things are tough. Rook is her heart... always has, always will be. Frankie was tougher to describe by placement. He's her comfort... perhaps soul? Again, perhaps I looked too much into it, and my sleep deprived mind tried making sense of something that wasn't quite there. I couldn't sleep without reading "just one more chapter," though!

Thank you NetGalley and Tantor Media for the ALC of Storm!
4 out of 5 stars!
This was my first non-shifter omegaverse romance and while I was hesitant about that, it did not disappoint! There was still nesting, knotting, and scenting. Still the hierarchy of the pack but with 4 alphas, two omegas, and a beta, there was mostly just polyamorous negotiations ensuing, which was delightful!
My only complaint about the story is that they called out Storm's "dark chocolate" scent far too frequently. It felt like multiple times a chapter. And for that, I took away one star. That being said, I would absolutely continue with this series!
The narrators (Marie Hawkins and Alex Knox) were both fantastic! I wish there would have been a bit more of a distinction in male voices because there were a few times I had to jump back to the beginning of a chapter to figure out which POV I was hearing, but still an excellent job!

Really liked how the different relationships were shown in the pack. Loved how they were thrown together and that the MMCs were open to making it work even if it was inconvenient for them at the time.
Loved the FMC's personality and that she made it her mission to make it as hard for her captors as possible.
Just wanted a little more of everything, especially for how long the book was. We get glimpses of things happening in their world, even some things that affect them, but the outcomes happen off page. Some of the relationships happened mostly off page too, which was disappointing.
It also ended with zero information on how the politics of their world changed, so we're just left with the thought that they're going to be in hiding for the rest of their lives. This is important information we need to know bc the risk is literal death to some of them and kidnapping/rape to others. We really need at least some reassurance that they'd be relatively safe in this world, especially since two of them are from a notorious family, but we were given absolutely none.

3.5/5 ⭐️
This was an entertaining omegaverse story. There's politics and intrigue, with those in power trying to hold on through brute force and oppresive hierarchies. Storm unknowingly lands herself in the middle of things and it's up to her pack to keep her safe.
Given the start of the book, I expected there to be more details or resolution about what happened socially and politically. The first part of the book is all politics, tension, and drama. But the second half of the book is basically just pack dynamics and everyone finding their place in their found family (plus a lot of spice). There's nothing wrong with either of those things, but given how long the book is, I expected more resolution outside of their pack's dynamics.
The narrators did a great job bringing the story to life. Given there are 6 males in the pack, more narrators/full cast narration would have made it easier to keep the dialog straight. That being said, I don't fault the narrators for the similarities between each character's voices.
The story can be read/listened to as a standalone. I did not read book 1 and had no trouble picking up in book 2.
Overall this was an entertaining listen. I enjoyed the politics and intrigue of the first part and the coziness of the found family in the second part. I just wish there was more resolution outside of the pack.
Great for readers who enjoy:

*Scent-Matches
*Possessive Alphas

It’s not that this was bad it just wasn’t great. Once again the fmc talks about how she “fought to get this” ma’am there was no fighting whatsoever. There was some bitchyness but that’s about it. There was practically no action whatsoever in this book and a lot like the first most of this was just boring. Do I dare give the next one a chance? The audiobook was done in duel narration and the male narrators voices for each male were just a little to close together for my liking. The female narrator came off a little whiny in this one as well. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my audio arc. This is my honest review.

Once I finished Harley I was super excited to get this Arc & dive right in.
Storm is definitely one of my favorites so far!
I also love a bit of MM in my books so that definitely didn’t turn me away! Storm is a fierce & determined Omega, which I love that in female main character. Storm deals with life full force & handles everything life throws at her. I loved that her & Rook were looking for one another & would do anything to get back to each other.
I definitely couldn’t pick a favorite male main character, I loved them all.

Storm absolutely lives up to her name. She comes and tears things right apart, but those things need it. For a large part of this book I did not like Pack Kingsley. I did eventually grow to like them for Storm but I was unhappy with how she was first treated. I love her and Rook together. Overall, I was really happy with how things turn out especially since this book is set in such tumultuous times. I’m eager to hear what happens with Daisy!

The hurricane is here!
This book has been so amazing! The hurricane that is storm! The rebellion that’s hitting new highs! The twist and turns! The MMC’s who fight against the feelings! This book has it all! Brother sandwich’s, found again love and a strong MFC who shakes the ground under them all! Cannot wait for the next book!

meh rushed & badly developed bonds

I just reread this even though I read this in May 2025. It was better than I remember, but I was feeling really depressed in May. I really enjoyed all the relationships and how they grew together as a pack. Can't wait to read Daisy's story when it comes out.

🖤 This was my first time reading a non-shifter omegaverse romance, and I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. Thankfully, it completely exceeded my expectations. Even without shifting, it still delivered all the elements I enjoy from the genre—nesting, scenting, knotting, and the familiar pack dynamics—but with a refreshing twist that made the story feel unique.
✨ The pack itself was one of the most interesting parts of the book. With four alphas, two omegas, and one beta, there was a lot of emphasis on communication, boundaries, and figuring out how everyone fit together. Instead of endless drama, the relationships evolved through conversations and compromise, which made the polyamorous dynamic feel surprisingly natural.
⚡ Storm absolutely lives up to her name. From the moment she enters the story, she disrupts everything the pack has grown comfortable with, forcing everyone to confront issues they'd rather ignore. I admired her resilience and the way she refused to let herself be diminished, even when she wasn't treated the way she deserved. Watching her stand her ground made her incredibly easy to root for.
💛 I have to admit, Pack Kingsley frustrated me for a good portion of the book. Their initial treatment of Storm was difficult to watch, and it definitely took time before they earned my trust. Thankfully, the character development paid off, and by the end I found myself appreciating both their individual growth and the evolution of the pack as a whole.
🫶 One relationship that completely stole my heart was Storm and Rook. Their connection felt genuine from the start, and every scene they shared made me smile. They balanced each other beautifully, and I couldn't get enough of their interactions.
🌍 Even with the romance taking center stage, I also enjoyed the larger world surrounding the characters. The story takes place during a particularly uncertain period, which added extra tension and made the pack's struggles feel even more meaningful. By the final chapters, I was already curious to see where the series would go next—especially when it comes to Daisy.
🎧 I experienced the story through the audiobook, and both Marie Hawkins and Alex Knox delivered strong performances. They captured the emotions of the characters really well and made it easy to stay immersed in the story. My only small issue was occasionally needing a moment to figure out which male character's perspective I was listening to, as some of the voices sounded fairly similar. Aside from that, they both did an excellent job bringing the cast to life.
🍫 If I had one minor criticism, it would be the repeated references to Storm's "dark chocolate" scent. It came up often enough that I started noticing it every time, and after a while it became a little distracting. It's a very small complaint in the grand scheme of things, but it did stand out.
💜 Overall, this was a really enjoyable introduction to non-shifter omegaverse romance. It offered engaging characters, satisfying pack dynamics, emotional growth, and enough intrigue to leave me excited for the next installment. I'll definitely be continuing this series.

Story 4/5
Spice 4/5
Audiobook Narration 3.5/5
Tropes: Omegaverse, Dystopian, Why Choose, MMMMFMM, Hate to Love, Friends to Lovers, Male Omega, Found Family, Political Unrest
I love a good omegaverse, and this one delivered. This series is set in more of a dystopian world than I typically read, but it adds an extra element of danger to the story. I really enjoyed the FMC in this book, she is a little chaotic and always pushing against the strict rules that she is expected to follow because of her omega designation. She ends up accidentally starting a revolt in the city when she was just trying to create a distraction so that she could escape her newly selected pack and run away with her childhood best friend and first love. Unfortunately she chose the wrong pack if she was looking for an easy escape and now she is locked away with the heirs to one of the most powerful packs in the city.
I love how the pack began reluctantly/accidentally with one female omega and three alpha males, and over the course of the story came to include a male omega, beta, and another alpha. There was a lot of really great communication between the characters and discussions around consent when it came to pack activities. I loved the way the characters evolved over the course of the story and learned to understand each other and eventually love each other.
Don't worry, you will also get all of the spice that you want from an omegaverse... all the kinds of spice... all the combinations... it was a good time.
I enjoyed the characters, the relationships and the story. It also sets you up for the next book and I am excited for that book too!
The audiobook is dual style narration performed by Marie Hawkins. I thought it was a good listen and I didn't feel like the male narrator reading the female dialogue distracted me from the story. I do wish that with so many male characters the narrators had more distinct voices for each one to help the listener differentiate who was speaking.

Storm By Belle Harper ARC Review
Storm, was an omega and woman who survived living in foster homes and had a bad past I liked that she was so free to speak as she pleases and she did that was remarkable and I wanted more of her back talk and power I read about Storm in book 1 and I can see how she became the way she is now in the present.
I thought she was an angel who survived on what she had and lived how she wanted to and also be herself she had really loving and attentive alphas who appreciated her and let her live how she wanted to. This was an incredible read where I wanted more and I can’t wait for Daisy’s story.
Jonathan was a fighter and a great friend who cared about his friends and tries his hardest to protect them at every turn and I thought he was an amazing male main character because he was protective and possessive which made me love his character even more.
Rook, was a spontaneous mmc because he was a loving best friend and loved who worshiped Storm and the others I knew he was a fighter at the start and he had the best qualities and characteristics I want in an mmc he was a very strong character which made me enjoy him even more.
The others were an a match made in heaven and I can’t give any spoilers they each had their own personality’s and went through what they had to get where they are now. I think was a great read and rated this 5 stars and I can’t wait for the final book!

Book 2 Omega Chosen.
I was so excited to get to Storm's story after we were introduced to her in book 1. She is such a fun/fierce omega FMC. I loved that she wasn't this meek fragile damsel and was determined to fight for what she believed in and wanted.
This omegaverse is so easy to get hooked on with the twisted dystopian currupt government trying to control its society with the promise of the rare omegas by lottery.
I loved the dynamic between Storm and her pack. It was unique in the there were not only alphas and betas but also an additional male omega, and there were also relationships between the MMCs as well. For as many characters as there were, the story flowed easily, and their pack dynamic fit so well together.
While this can be read as a standalone, the overall political corruption plot continues throughout the series.
Narrated by Marie Hawkins and Alex Knox. They were easy to listen to, keeping my attention as they brought the characters to life.

I was so excited to get to Storm's story after we were introduced to her in book 1. She is such a fun/fierce omega FMC. I loved that she wasn't this meek fragile damsel and was determined to fight for what she believed in and wanted.

🎧ALC REVIEW 🎧
📖 Storm - Omega Chosen by @authorbelleharper
⭐️ 4.5/5
🗓️ Release: July 21, 2026
I was so convinced I knew who Storm’s endgame would be... and Bella Harper completely proved me wrong.
Storm grew up in foster care with Rook, and they’ve always planned to escape together. But in this world, omegas are entered into a lottery to be claimed by a pack, and Storm’s future takes a turn she never expected.
I loved the unique world-building, political intrigue, and pack dynamics. Storm is a strong FMC who refuses to let others decide her future, and watching her fight for her own happiness was one of my favorite parts.
What made this story shine was the pack. Rook, Jonathan, Reid, Frankie, Alex, and Fox all had completely different relationships with Storm. Every bond felt natural and meaningful, bringing out a different side of her. None of the connections felt repetitive or overlooked, and together they created a pack that genuinely felt like a family.
I’m already excited to read more from Bella Harper!

Belle Harper delivers an electrifying, emotionally gripping ride in Storm that flips the typical Omegaverse dynamic on its head. This isn’t your average Omega story—this is a defiant, fierce, and powerfully written tale about rewriting fate and choosing your own path, no matter the cost.
The heroine is the kind of Omega you root for from page one—strong, unapologetic, and absolutely done playing by the rules. She’s not looking for love or belonging; she’s after the Alpha she can’t live without, no matter what stands in her way. But what starts as a mission soon morphs into something much deeper, as the Pack she never wanted becomes something she never expected: hers.
The tension, the slow-burn dynamics, and the evolution of trust between characters were all masterfully done. I loved how the emotional layers unfolded slowly, making every shift in loyalty and affection feel earned. There's heat, high stakes, and heart—and the chaos swirling through the city is the perfect backdrop for a romance that refuses to be boxed in.
If you love Omegaverse stories with a rebellious streak, found family vibes, and a heroine who refuses to be tamed, Storm will absolutely blow you away.

“Storm by name, hurricane by nature”
This is a different take on Omegaverse hierarchy and how the different designations are treated by the government. My heart goes out to the male omegas for sure. I absolutely love male omegas and Fox is a sweetheart who definitely has PTSD for how they treat male omegas. No one deserves that.
See what Storm will do to get back to her love, Rook who she was taken away from as soon as she presented as an omega. She is to be put in a lottery given to an elite alpha pack not of her choosing and let’s not forget beta and omega pairing is strictly forbidden no touching even allowed or can result in death.
The is a polyamorous Reverse Harem and I love the dynamic of this pack, where each one fits a need in the grouping. Which in my opinion gets explained a bit with how her nest is made and where items of clothing are placed.
While most omegas do not like to be around each other it is different with a male and female omega. In this group their heats synced up and they ended up sharing her nest.
Harley & Storm are just what needed to happen to shake things up and hoping to see in the next book how the system is progressing with change.

Storm was forced into an Omega house after presenting which was devastating to leave her childhood love, Rook. When she left they promised each other they'd find one another again. Storm is introduced in Harley's book where we learn that during the lottery, they omegas figure out how to rig the drawing so Storm has a plan.
When the plan goes a bit different than she expected, she ends up with more alphas, a beta and a male omega. I love Storm though! She's feisty! (Which is what the guys love about her).
If you've read Harley's book then you have an idea of what was going on at the same time. One thing that was strange was the huge threat by Jonathan and Alexander's fathers that kind of fizzled. I honestly don't remember enough details from Harley's book to remember if they were mentioned in that one, or maybe they'll be mentioned in the next book.
With so many characters I know it's not easy to fully develop relationships between everyone but I thought the author did a fairly decent job.

Holy hotness overlord with a side of Twins!
Spoilers!!!!!
This book was so steamy!!!! I felt so many feels in this book I left me on the edge of my seat with each chapter! I loved all of Storms mates and all the tension! The dynamics between everyone was perfection! I loved the friendship between Storm and Harley! Wish there was a bit more back story on how Storm and Rook ended up in foster care. I loved all the world building and more details showed up and even more about Daisy! I loved how she broke through some defences with Reed! Sparks really sparked there! And the relationship with Fox?! Holy smokes that was a whole other level of steam I loved! And the teasing between Storm, Frankie, Alex and Fox?! Ugh soooo good! I loved how this ended up being one big family pack. This book was just all around good I couldn't put it down! I highly recommend this series!!!!
I kinda wish we were getting a book about Dahlia honestly 😆 because that left me some questions on what happened to her and her pack.

The hurricane has officially landed—and her name is Storm. 🌪️
I was already excited after finishing Harley, but Storm might be my favourite of the series so far. Fierce, determined, and unapologetically herself, Storm barrels through every challenge like… well, a storm—and I loved her for it. She’s the kind of Omega who doesn’t just survive, she fights for what (and who) she loves.
Storm and Rook’s connection had me absolutely hooked. That desperate, aching need to get back to each other? Ugh, so good. Their bond gave the story so much emotional weight, especially with all the rebellion chaos swirling around them. I wasn’t sure how I felt about Pack Kingsley at first (not gonna lie, I was mad for a while), but they definitely grew on me and watching Storm shake them up was incredibly satisfying.
There’s tension, heartbreak, steamy moments (yes, even a little M/M which I LOVED), and a strong-as-hell heroine at the center of it all. This world just keeps getting more intense, and I’m dying to see what happens with Daisy next!

Welcome back to Crescent City. Storm: Omega Chosen is a beautiful omegaverse story. Storm rigged the omega auction and inadvertently set off a disastrous chain of reactions. She did it all to find her friend and Alpha from childhood, Rook. In the meantime, she’s with Jonathan, Alexander, Frankie, Fox and Reed. What happens when you combine four Alphas, one Beta, one male Omega and Storm? I loved the description of their scents.
The dual narration by Marie Hawkins and Alex Knox was phenomenal. Marie Hawkins was spectacular as sweet, kind, sassy Storm. All of her hurt, pain, confusion, intelligence, sass, love and passion was clearly evident in her voice. Alex Knox was superb as sweet, kind, fighter Alpha Rook, grumpy, growly Alpha Reed, charming, calm Alexander, tough, strong Jonathan, sweet, lovable Omega Fox, and happy, compassionate Beta Frankie. He gave them all their own unique tone that matched their personality. I highly recommend listening to this fabulous audiobook.
Thanks to the author, NetGalley, Tantor Media and RB Media for this ALC.

This is Book 2 of the series which follows Storm by exploring the ramifications of calling out Pack Kingsley during her Choosing Day.
Belle Harper must have read reviews from Book 1. I felt more connected to most of the characters because she fleshed out their histories more. I had a better understanding of the universe. And even though the story revolved primarily around their ability and inability to come together as a pack, it didn’t feel rushed or unfinished. The story previews Book 3 and I look forward to seeing how the universe evolves with Daisy’s disappearance.
There was still some unnecessary fluff, but not enough for me to hate the book. Again I enjoyed the story and look forward to Book 3.

RH Omegaverse with MM
This was a good read. Storm’s story coincides with Harley’s (the 1st book in the series)
I liked Storm, she was sassy, fierce without being over the top and compassionate.
The MMCs were diverse in their personalities and there was a bit of background info on some of them but would have preferred a bit more especially on Reed.
Other than the drama in the beginning and a bit from ‘the fathers’ there was no other drama in the story, it was more about building a pack/family.
The ending sets us up for the next book in the series ‘Daisy’
* Second Chance (Reuniting after being forced apart)
* Hate to Love
* Friends to Lovers
* MMC with traumatic past
* Mental Health Rep
* MM
* Two Omegas

Thank you to NetGalley and Tantor Media/Audio for an ALC of this book.
Storm is book 2 in the Omega Chosen series. It tells Storm's story from before she first arrived at the Omega House to the point where we last saw her with Harley in book 1. It was nice to find out more of Storm’s story and I actually like this book more than the first one. It brings you another strong FMC and 5 hot MMC. Of course, there is lots of spicy times with this pack and the chemistry between all of them was great. With the length of the book, I was hoping to find out more about the political part of their society and how the class system came to be, but maybe that will be explored in the next book. This was a solid 4.

Great PNR RH Romance
At the beginning, I was confused about the time jumps. We started at age 16 and then went back months in the past and then back to where we started. Then we jumped 4 years in the future and it was kind of hard to follow but it gets way better after that ! This book was so amazing, you get dragged in and couldn’t stop reading. Storm is a beta born omega and she is touch as nails and sticks to her guns. She loves her best friend and will do anything to get back to Rook. She edda up getting her RH. The character growth in this story is very well written and the world building and story line keeps you wanting more.

ARC Review: Storm – Omega Chosen by Belle Harper
4 ⭐️ for book 2 in Belle Harper’s omegaverse series, Storm: Omega Chosen. This can totally be read as a standalone, though returning readers will recognize the first FMC Storm from book 1. The author does a great job weaving in backstory, so even if you’re new to this world you won’t feel lost.
This story leans slow burn but definitely delivers on the spice, including some very sweet and spicy MM and MMF moments. I loved seeing Storm’s dynamic with each pack member unfold as their emotional connections developed, and her character was easy to root for.
And of course, Belle left us with some well-placed cookie crumbs about the next omega’s story… and I’m already intrigued! Bring it on.

This is an omegaverse book with quite a bit of MM action so if that is not you thing, then this book is not for you. As with most reverse harem/omegaverse books, this is spicy. Storm lives in a very oppressive world but she is fighting the system so that she or others like her are not forced to be with a pack that they do not choose for themselves. She is fierce and strong with a resolve to fight for what she believes in. Storm's pack accepts her for who she is and does not try to change her into what the "ideal" omega would be. All of the guys were great and truly cared for her. I really enjoyed Storm's story and can't wait to read more.

Another ah-mazing Belle Harper book! I absolutely love this author. Storm is another omegaverse (so if you love them give this book a read). It’s book 2 in the series and is a standalone. We get a small glimpse of her in Harley’s book. Storm is my favourite type of character, strong willed and doesn’t back down for anyone. I cried and laughed while reading this book. The only con I felt was needing more information about the organization for Omega’s. It felt a bit rushed and having to be in hiding for the rest of your life seems a crappy way to live. I hope we get more information in Daisy’s book. Overall it’s a 8/10 for me.
August 5, 2025
Storm's story was a good one. I liked her sass and determination to be in charge of her future. I liked that Rook never gave up on being with her. This book explains more of the rebellion that was briefly mentioned in Harper's book. There is a weird time jump in the end. It felt a bit rushed. I would have loved to read more about the relationships that formed between the other pack members. I feel like, in the end, everyone was suddenly together and happy. I did enjoy reading this book and am definitely moving on to the next one. Maybe more will be explained about the happenings in the world outside of Harley and Storm's pack.
