Welcome to the Omega Celibacy Club. No sex until graduation. No unexpected pregnancies. No alphas needed.
SIMON
Even if it’s not politically correct to say so anymore, everyone still knows that alphas and omegas are ruled by their biology. Sure, it’s the twenty-first century now and most people have given up believing in archaic ideas like fated mates, but just take a look at college drop out rates and you’ll see that some things haven’t changed at all. Alphas still dominate, omegas still submit, and horny college kids in heat let their hormones dictate poor choices every day.
Not me and my roommates, though. Not if I have anything to say about it. Too many of our classmates here at Preston College have gotten knocked up and then dropped out. Given up their goals and dreams just because they’ve met an alpha with a big… ego. The point here is that there’s only one surefire way to avoid that trap, and that’s why I started the Omega Celibacy Club. No sex until graduation. No unexpected pregnancies. No alphas needed.
And no, I’m not just saying that because I’ve been hung up on one particular alpha for approximately ever. I’m totally over Hunter King. I mean, not that there was ever anything to get over. Our families have been friends forever and he dated my sister back when I was still just a kid, but even if me and my right hand may have pined for him once upon a time, I barely ever think of him anymore.
I mean never. I never think of him anymore.
Did I mention I’m over it?
HUNTER
Weddings are a great place to get laid, but when I show up for my ex’s big day, I’m hoping to get a lot more than that. I’ve never admitted it, but the reason I broke up with her all those years ago was because of her brother. One look at little Simon Lawson and I was a goner. Of course I didn’t say anything though, not back then. I didn’t touch him. Always kept my distance. I had to, because he was just a kid… but he’s all grown up now.
I’ve bided my time for years, but now I’m ready to see if the feeling is mutual. And if it is, I know exactly what I want. I want Simon. I want a family. And I want it forever. And even though I’ve never been the kind of alpha who imposes his will on omegas, when I finally realize just what it is that my omega needs, I know I’ll do anything at all to make that forever happen.
In fact, I’ll do everything.
MAKE ME GIVE IN is the first book in the Omega Celibacy Club series, a contemporary omegaverse world where the only thing stronger than an alpha’s will is his desire to keep his omega happy, and where even omegas who don’t believe in fated mates sometimes still find them.
REVIEW:
Ok, you guys know me and how I am about Omegas, so I was all over this book and series. And I was happy to see that again, omegas were taking their power back. They wanted to have careers and know they could do that without having to get barefoot and pregnant and be at the whim of alphas.
It was important even more to Simon, because he has just see his friends get trapped by a pregnancy and having to give up their dreams of college and careers because they didn’t know how to have a baby and a career both. Alone. And Simon didn’t want that. Not to mention, the only alpha he wanted was his SISTER’S ex. Yeah, even with her being married now, he wasn’t sure how that would go over. But what Simon didn’t realize, is why it never worked with his sister and Hunter. Hunter broke it off because the omega he really wanted was Simon. And now that Simon is old enough and Hunter in a place he can take care of his omega, he wanted to claim Simon as his. He knew Simon was his and it was time. But at Simon’s sister’s wedding, things didn’t turn out all that great. Oh, it turned out ok in the end, but it was after that the trouble started. Simon didn’t believe Hunter really wanted him and when he found out Hunter really did, it set things in motion. And that motion set other things in motion and now everything is up in the air. Simon is a mess, Hunter is trying to get through to him and doesn’t know if he can. Hunter has to show Simon he’s serious and this is it for him, but will Simon give in or let go?
Omegas have it so hard. NO matter how hard they fight, when they get pregnant with or without an alpha to support them, it seems like they are always the ones giving up their dreams and hopes for their futures. Even if they love the alpha they are with. They have things they want to do like everyone else. So, I get how Simon feels. And how he wants to protect his brother and his friends from it as well. He knows how hard everyone is working to obtain their goals and he’s seen one too many of his friends have to give up college and their goals to have the babies and stay at home. But getting hit with the man of his dreams, in Hunter, left him wobbly and a mess. He never expected the man of his dreams to want him back. And Hunter, bless him, was patient, even when Simon was pushing him to the brink of his insanity. He wanted Simon to have his dreams and go for the things he wanted. He wanted to be hands on with his family, taking care of them just as much as Simon would. And that’s how an alpha should be.
So Simon technically isn’t part of the OCC anymore. He’s fixing to have a family and graduate. And with the way the others are acting, I’m curious how it’s going to turn out for them.
