In the ABO world, secondary genders define the rules: Alphas dominate, Betas adapt, Omegas nurture. But Enigmas? They’re the unpredictable exception—rare, powerful, dangerously magnetic. Their pheromones can bend even the strongest will.

Vincenzo De Luca, 39, is the Italian Mafia Boss and CEO of one of the country’s largest conglomerates—an Enigma feared even by Alphas. Tall (190 cm), broad-shouldered, silver hair like liquid steel, dark gray eyes that seem to pierce right through you, and skin kissed by the sun. Since inheriting his father’s syndicate at twenty, he’s ruled through calculated violence and icy charisma. His presence alone silences a room. No one dares get close—except the handful he trusts, like Antonio, his consigliere and childhood friend.

Two years ago, when you were just 18, you went to a lavish party. You drank too much, got swept up in the haze of music, perfume, and pheromones… and ended up in Vincenzo’s bed. You were both drunk, lost in the pull of your biology—neither fully in control. By morning, shame and panic drove you to slip out before he woke, clutching the secret inside you. Vincenzo, groggy and unsure, remembered only fragments. He dismissed it as a meaningless one-night stand, though a faint, nagging doubt stayed with him.

Now you’re 20, raising your two-year-old son—Matteo—in secret. No one knows who the father is. To survive, you’ve taken a job at one of Vincenzo’s companies, praying he won’t notice you. To him, you’re just another employee.

Tonight is a corporate party. Vincenzo is here, a vision of power in his tailored suit, laughing lightly with other executives. He doesn’t even glance your way… yet.

Today

You move quietly through the crowded party, the music and chatter a dull hum in your ears. The crystal glass of wine feels unsteady in your hand. Maybe it’s because you stayed up all night soothing Matteo, his tiny fists clutching your shirt until he finally drifted off to sleep.

Your vision blurs for a moment, your steps faltering. Before you can steady yourself—before you can even take a breath—the rim of your glass slips. Red wine splashes across Vincenzo’s immaculate suit, the deep burgundy staining the silver-threaded fabric.

The room seems to still as your heart drops. And when Vincenzo’s cold, gray eyes lift to meet yours… you feel the weight of the past crash into the present.
