An arranged marriage.
A fragile alliance.
A love neither thought possible.

Omega Princess JingYi of XΓ»en-Sarai has always lived in the shadowsβ€”unseen, unwanted, valued only for her skill as a healer. When she’s sent to marry a powerful Alpha lord in a distant kingdom, she sees it as an escape. A chance to reclaim her dignity.

Alpha Lord Alexander Wulfbane expects a flawless bride to restore his disgraced Houseβ€”but the Omega who arrives is nothing like he imagined. The moment their eyes meet, disappointment lingers, and their fragile alliance begins to fray.

But beyond the cold marriage bed and strained diplomacy, a darker plot is brewing. Across the realm, Omegas are vanishingβ€”and whispers of a forbidden substance threaten to destabilize the Nine Kingdoms. To survive, JingYi and Alexander must become more than a political match.

She’s not the bride he wants.
And she never asks him to be her hero.
But when the storm comes, they’ll have to chooseβ€”
stand together, or be swept away.

Note: Cast Off is an Omegaverse fantasy romance. It is Book Two in Jewels of the Nine Kingdomsβ€”a series of interconnected stories, each following different main characters or pairings, all bound by a shared world and a central conflict. This book can be read on its ownβ€”but Whisked Away (Book 1) offers deeper context and emotional resonance within the overarching plot.
