Read this series on Lezhin this year. And copy/pasting my review to all the volumes because I’m lazy
I really love this one. Mostly I love A/O/B verses that subvert the stereotypes and trends. Where we usually have alpha omega pairings or if an alpha meets a beta the beta finds out they were actually a recessive omega and wham bam we have the couple procreating. I think a lot of MM alpha omega romances are great and can subvert the genre by dealing with things like trans issues. Or challenging ideas around body types and personalities. Also sometimes it’s nice to just read a story about a couple having a very heteronormative baby making relationship. I read it all.
But it definitely can get to be too much and harmful stereotypes start to emerge so I adore this series because we get to see a relationship with two alphas development and that even in a universe where we have a secondary gender so men can have babies too, love and sexual attraction does not need to be dependent on whether a couple can reproduce together. In A/b/o universes since omega males have babies homophobia rarely comes up and M|M relationships are as normal as MF, (as are FF when the female alpha can impregnate the omega one way of another) but it ALL hinges on societal acceptance around making BABIES so obviously alphas would NEVER mate will other alphas or omegas with omegas. There are some other series where the author explores this with side couples but very few make the primary couple two alphas or they will make an exception rule for how that couple reproduces.
Basically I’m saying I love that this series doesn’t do that. That the couples relationship and their love for each other is the only relevant thing regardless of the social pressures they are getting to conform.
I also love their personalities and the emotional struggles they go through as the come to terms with their sexual preferences. And bonus the art is beautiful and the smut is 🥵
