Winter tightens its grip, the kind of cold that pares life down to instinct. On Christmas Day, five Alpha-Omega pairs are cornered by moments they can't dodge. Snow piles up. Heat pushes back. Desire won't keep quiet.
A blizzard strands two strangers in a remote cabin. One stormy night. A bond neither planned, and a future neither expected. A battle-worn Alpha comes home for Christmas and finds the Omega he left behind guarding a secret one that unsettles everything he knows about family and duty. In a small coastal town strung with lights and law, a runaway Omega crosses paths with a Sheriff Alpha. Rules say one thing. His pulse says another.
Music drifts through falling snow as one Omega faces memories he tried to lock away. The Alpha who once hurt him returns, older, quieter and maybe the only one who truly sees him. And when Christmas itself teeters on the edge of ruin, an Alpha who closed himself off long ago is forced to choose. Open the door. Or let the fire die.
Across frozen roads and glowing holiday nights, instincts surge, bonds stir, and choices land hard. These men must decide whether to give in or turn away from the one connection that feels inescapable. Want is easy. Trust is harder. Love asks for nerve when the world is ice-cold.
When instinct speaks, will they listen or walk away?
