Escaped from becoming the breeder of my pack, however, I got caught by FOUR Single Werewolves...
The destiny of a heated Omega was becoming a breeder.
So I ran away, without any preparation or destination.
Except for my female companion’s last screaming:
Run, Run east.
So I dared not to stop, even the heavy snow numbed my legs and froze my veins.
Exhausted and overwhelmed, I fainted.
Not aware of how fatally attractive a heated Omega would be for males...
FOUR Werewolves saved me and sheltered me in their pack.
All well-built with threatening muscles, ice-craving handsome as if never smiled...
But I was melting in their devoted loving eyes...
Being spoiled by my FOUR over-protective bossy mates, I never thought my happiness was illegal and unbearable.
That the council swore to take me, an uncontrollable heated Omega back...
At any price...

Wonderful characters, danger, action, steamy and HEA.
The audiobook is done very well and the narrator does an excellent job. Very enjoyable to listen to.
Good audiobook

I've even been a fan of some A/B/O stuff. If you checked out my bookmarks on AO3, I'm sure there are at least half a dozen smutty fics with A/B/O and Mpreg themes. It might be taboo and hard for some people to understand, but this is sort of a mainstay in fandom, and it isn't going anywhere. So I've learned to embrace it for what it is, especially since some of the stories are written by very capable writers.
But I'm also realizing that it's a trope that needs to belong in fandom culture, not published literature. And that's a stance I'm sticking to.
Let's start at the root of the trope. Why, when authors in fandom write A/B/O, are people drawn to this trope? It doesn't matter if you're in the Sherlock, MCU, or Tolkien fandoms--this trope apparently popped up around 2010 on the Supernatural Kink Meme and has gained quite the fandom following. It often is accompanied with a werewolf AU, which is explains the actual alpha/omega naming and ranking, but I've noticed a trend away from SFF AU's and into plain ol' contemporary romance. It also often features male pregnancy, knotting, and "scent marking," though not all of these have to appear in every story. Since this is a purely fan-created device, there's plenty of freedom when utilizing it, which is nice. It allows freedom for characters like Dean Winchester, John Watson, and Derek Hale to become impregnated or impregnate other men, and hey, if that's what you're into, more power to you.
But the thing about this trope is that it is so heavily grounded in media that already exists. That's the point of a fan fiction trope. We rely on what we already know about the TV show/book/film to enjoy the story device. So when Steve Rogers is an alpha wanting to find and protect the omega Winter Soldier, we already have plenty of background knowledge of both character and trope to enjoy the story. The nuances exist without having to be explained to us. And in some cases, like in the Teen Wolf fandom and to some extent Supernatural, there are already canon elements that make an A/B/O universe make a little more sense.
Writing an original story like this one while implementing the A/B/O trope was an uphill battle from the start. We get no clear idea of the shifter dynamics in this particular story--we know that packs are disenfranchised and kept apart from humans. In the case of the cruel Montana Borders Pack, who want main character and omega Jason back for breeding purposes, they live off government subsidies, which made me think they were being very inappropriately compared to Native Americans living on reservations. The Mercy Hills Pack, home to alpha Mac who eventually falls for Jason, mates with him, and gets him pregnant, seems to have a more liberal take on omegas, but they're still treated terribly by outsiders.
This book brings up so many questions and answers so few. Why can't humans and shifters work together? What is the history of human/shifter relationships? If shifters are receiving government money, why is it that humans know so little about shifter culture to the point that a federal judge has to ask about omegas in the courtroom? It is established that Jason is a "True Omega," which we still don't really know what entails (though it seems future books will reveal Jason's "power"), though we know it means he forms an unbreakable bond with his alpha. So if regular omegas or deltas don't have that connection, why don't they just leave? Is there shifter asylum?
Another disappointment comes from the fact that there is next to no real erotica in this! A/B/O is all about explosive sex scenes, hormonal rampages, have-to-fuck-or-I'll-die levels of horniness. It is messy and wild and animalistic. It last for days and days. In fan fiction, the best A/B/O sex scenes are long and sticky and intense and they always come after long bouts of longing, pining, and building up to the "heat." In this book, I can't even recall the smallest level of eroticism between the two characters. It was just dull.
And while some fan-fic writers take thousands of words to just explain the anatomical ways a cisgender man could give birth, this book sort of lazily hand-waves it by saying omega men are born with an "omega line" on their stomach where the infant comes out of. This might be better than having a baby come out of your ass like in some fics (PM for links, I'll find some doozies), it's still a little too close to Alien-level body horror. I mean, can't they just have a good ol' fashioned C-section and call it square? It also makes zero sense for Jason to have contractions--nothing is contracting. A cervix isn't dilating. Even SFF has to come with some sort of logical explanation, and all of this stuff just couldn't force me to suspend my disbelief.
And I really don't want to sound like I'm beating on the idea of male pregnancy, SFF or otherwise. On one hand, the idea of a trans man having children should not be seen as grotesque or wrong. And also, there are different rules in SFF and we should be allowed to create new worlds and new tropes. But when it takes place in a recognizable setting and contains other recognizable and long-held SFF tropes, there needs to be more effort in blending A/B/O into the story.
This whole book felt weird and foreign and messy in the worst way. It attempted to do too much with too little. It gets one star from me because not only is the plot a mess, the characters are very forgettable and make no lasting impression. I was warming up to the dynamic between Jason and his father, who just wanted to protect his omega son. But their relationship was practically abandoned once Jason met Mac and nothing else mattered.
I haven't lost hope for this genre, and I wish the best for the author. But this one was a pretty hard no for me. After finishing it only a few hours ago, I recall very little about the characters or plot and have no desire to see if future books clear up any world-building questions.
I have...a lot of thoughts. Too many.

Narrator voicing of characters with no discernable difference between characters, leaving listener not to know who is actually talking in the story, Not Impressed.
Basic Story OK, Except for Explicit Sex Scenes
