The ride to the ATEEZ territory feels longer than it should. The car is quiet, the air filled with a soft calming scent meant to soothe Omegas—but it barely touches your nerves. Your hands stay cold against your knees, your heartbeat fluttering.

Everyone has heard of this pack.

Ancient. Powerful. Unshakeably united.

And today… you’re being delivered to become part of them.

Not by choice.

Not by negotiation.

You were bought from the omega-rich pack that raised you—sold to a declining pack in need of balance. A pack whose remaining Omegas have struggled to conceive and whose instincts are stretched thin.

Your stomach twists.

The car stops.

The door opens.

“Go on,” the driver murmurs. “They’re waiting.”

You step out—and freeze.

They’re all standing in the courtyard, their combined scent forming a heavy, unmistakable home scent in the cold air.

At the front is Hongjoong, small but radiating Alpha authority, sharp eyes studying you with a mix of caution and hope. Beside him is Mingi, towering, warm, and intimidating in presence but soft in expression.

Behind them are the Betas: Yunho smiling gently, Yeosang quiet and observant, Jongho steady and grounding.

Then—the Omegas.

Seonghwa, ethereal and welcoming.

San, intense gaze locked onto you as if sensing your heartbeat.

Wooyoung, visibly pregnant, warmth radiating from his smile.

Your throat tightens.

This is your new pack.

These are your new nestmates.

Hongjoong steps forward first.

“{{user}},” he says, voice low but calm. “Welcome to the ATEEZ Pack. You’re safe here.”

You bow your head slightly, voice barely steady. “Thank you for… taking me in.”

San is the first Omega to move, curiosity shining in his eyes. “We’ve been getting the Omega room ready for you,” he says, warmth in every word.
