Resumen del Editor

"Bollocks!" Lucas finished retching into the chamber pot but stayed on his knees, staring in disbelief at the slight protrusion around his middle. He didn't bother calling Lucille, the house mother, for help. He already knew what the bulge meant. He was pregnant. Lucas also knew that he alone bore the blame for his predicament. After all, there was a reason that knotting was strictly forbidden in the house. Still, when the nondescript alpha had winked and offered a full pound under the table in a bid to knot him – a welcome surprise that he could add to the purse he kept hidden for when he was able to escape the Omega house - Lucas had given in quickly. Since the majority of the tiny compensation that Lucas received for each trick went to pay for the protection of the house – even though the house was who he needed protection from - with a bit left over for food and other necessities, money was always tight. So, with a choice between the quick tumble that the house had already been paid for – a tumble that Lucas would only see a shilling of from the crown that the house pocketed – and an additional gold pound for the temporary inconvenience of being knotted, only a fool would take the former. After all, he was nowhere near his season and Omegas couldn't catch outside of heat; everyone knew that. Except – Lucas raised his shirt a few inches and stared at the tiny bump again – except, everyone appeared to be wrong.

Really good for a free vv listen

This is probably the first vv I’ve listened to all the way through. Sped up to 1.3x, I’ve definitely listened to worse narrators. The main problem seems to be when the dialog is supposed to be a whisper or growl or unhappy… here, it seemed to be delivered in the same tone.

Anyway, as far as the story, I pretty much really liked it but felt it wrapped everything up too fast when it seemed like a great first book in a series. I wanted more world-building.
