While Blaze & Ajax will forever be one of my fav books and will always have a special place in my heart, objectively ( and subjectively too, ofc ) speaking Alpha's story is the best in the series.
I can understand that this might not be everyone's fav, idk why, but whatever, this story was so beautiful. So, so beautiful.
Alpha, or King, is one of the most selfless characters I've read about in a LONG time, if not ever. Sure, there are others, but he is pure in his selflessness. He loves the Rejects with a passion, and he would do anything to protect them, see them succeed, and know they are all good and happy. He is a father figure in a way, but he is also young as well. Being 29, or 30 ( he is both in the book ) is not old, and yes, he is older than the others, but he is still young. Somehow his role always made him sound more mature in the other books ( ofc, in comparison with the other characters ) so seeing him struggle like everyone else was... not refreshing, cuz that's not the right word, but it was relatable, maybe? I also relate on a personal level with him, so... there's also that.
Omega, or Har, is the perfect match for Kingston. He is the one that brings out the best in our boy, and I am so happy they got to find each other. Harley has his own battles, but I feel like he was made to be King's support system and the one to bring together everyone in a more healthy way.
This book is not overly dramatic, but they go through some stuff ( I won't say more so I won't spoil anything ), but with Harley's help and maturity everyone can come out on the other end just fine. He was the rock everyone needed, not only Kingston, but everyone in the Rejects family, and I love him for this.
Har's romantic side made King less rough around the edges, and gave him not only hope for the future, but also the care and reassurance he was missing. Him being always the one people rely on is not easy, but having someone who can catch you if needed is priceless and important and Omega was exactly that for our Alpha.
I loved this book, as I said I think this is the best in the series, and this says a LOT since I love ALL OF THEM.
I am sad this series is over ( I've read Cueball before this one so... ) and that we need to part ways with our Rejects, but I will always be happy I found them, and I will for sure come back and re-read this series OVER and OVER and OVER again.
10 stars.

P.S. despite the title this book is NOT omegaverse.
