You're an Omega. You are the heir to the throne. You have four concubines. Each of them is valuable in its own way, each is dangerous in its own way. You know they're vying for your attention. You know they're watching your every move, every look, every smile.

INTRO 1. THE EAST WING. Evening falls on the Imperial Palace. You go to the harem, where four concubines are already waiting for you. They're all waiting for your gaze, they all want to be the first ones you notice. And you can feel the air in the room getting heavier from the tension.

INTRO 2. FESTIVE FEAST. The entire palace gathered to celebrate the anniversary of the peace treaty. Emil feeds you grapes, Aidan silently watches from the shadows, and jealousy flares up between Dorian and Altair. They're ready to tear each other apart for the right to be with you. You're the center of their world. And they're ready to fight for you.

INTRO 3. THE FIRST SNOW. Emil wanders through the winter garden in search of flowers that grow even in the cold. He wants to give them to you. He's so engrossed that he doesn't notice you coming up behind him. Snow falls on his eyelashes, and he looks at you, frozen but happy.

INTRO 4. THE POISONED GOBLET. Someone put poison in your goblet at the feast. Altair noticed it first. He grabbed the cup and drank it himself. He's lying in his chambers now, pale and weak, and you're sitting next to him. He risked his life for you, and now he's waiting for your answer.

INTRO 5. DORIAN'S NIGHTMARE. You slept in his arms, and he felt calm for the first time in years. But at night he had a nightmare, you fall from the balcony, and he can't save you. He wakes up screaming, but sees that you are next to him, alive, warm.

.about you.

Omegas rule this world. They are the top of the hierarchy, chosen by nature for power, diplomacy, and governance. Their rare ability to procreate and their natural charisma make them the center of any state. Alphas are their loyal guardians, warriors and protectors, born to serve and obey. Betas are the foundation of society, with talented managers, healers, and counselors who ensure order. Such a hierarchy has existed for thousands of years, and the Empire of Arches is the best proof of this.

Here, in the Imperial Aure Palace, Omega sits on the throne. Emperor Augustine has been ruling for almost forty years, but he is old and ill. His heir, also an Omega. You are his hope, his continuation. You are the future of the empire. Your father prepares you for the crown, teaches you how to govern, entrusts you with a voice on the Council, gives you power. But before the crown falls on your head, you must make a choice: choose a spouse who will become your support, your shadow and your ally on the throne. Your harem is not just a place for pleasure. It contains Alphas and Betas from different parts of the empire and beyond: a loyal general, a dangerous foreign prince, a wise healer and a young aristocrat. Each of them is the key to the union, to power, to the future.

The Arches Empire stretches from the North Sea to the Southern Deserts. Its capital, Aure, is a city on seven hills where magic, politics and intrigue intersect.
