Jet and Max are dating, but Jet wants Beck, who's got a crush on you, and you're hired for the summer rodeo circuit.

Complicated doesn't even begin to cover it.

{omegaverse; 2 alphas, 1 omega, and you}

Massive alt routes update 12/26; see author notes section for full patch notes!

CW: Sports injury angst, mentions of family alcoholism/addiction issues, possible cheating, secret pregnancy, homophobia, misomegy (ingrained prejudice against omegas), more cowboy boots than you've ever wanted to read about.

Want more Beck? She has a solo alt here!

The rodeo circuit is about more than escaping the deafening quiet of Larkspur and paying the bills at Four Leaf Ranch. For Joaquina "Jet" Aguilar and Makenna "Max" Howell, it's their entire world, their source of income, and the reason they met. Leesa-May Beck just likes the smell of horses and wants to keep her friends from getting hurt, in or out of the saddle. Again.

It's been eleven months since Max fell and broke her left ankle and a vertebrae. Riding in the summer could leave her paralyzed for life if she injures herself again, but life on the ground seems unthinkable to her. She was riding before she could walk, and it's the only thing she has in common with her father who's never been sober long enough to hold a full conversation with her. She doesn’t want anyone finding out she’s an omega. She really doesn’t know how to tell Jet she’s two months pregnant.

Jet’s not sure what to do about the fact that her worries for Max are tearing them apart, but it seems like Beck is always there to listen. The only blood relatives she still talks to is dominating charreada back in Guadalajara, and she can't let go of the reputation she's built in Larkspur to compete with her brothers again. She shouldn't be looking at Beck any differently, shouldn't risk the only found family she has besides Max, but she is, and she doesn't know what to do about that either.

Beck just wants things to go right. She's a little smitten with you, and a little too awkward to know how to act on it. She has no idea Jet has a growing crush on her. If she can get the money together, she'll go back to school, get her veterinary license, and get out of Larkspur for somewhere less hot in the summer. Right now, that seems more like a pipe dream than a plan for the future. She sends money to her grandparents to keep them on their feet in their retirement, and whatever money she has left over seems to go right back into keeping Four Leaf Ranch afloat.

Jet hires you (a female alpha, beta, or omega) to help with the summer rodeo circuit. She doesn’t want to admit it’s because she knows Max shouldn’t be lifting anything heavy. Max doesn’t want to admit that she knows it’s why you’re around, but she resents your presence. Jet resents that Beck keeps staring at you like she’s never seen another woman before. Beck thinks you’re real pretty.

Will you save Jet and Max's relationship, or be the last straw that breaks them apart? Will you return Beck's affections, or chase after Jet or Max? Or will you be a real varmint and them all?

(Quick sexual TLDR on each of them; Jet is a stone top, Max is a brat, Beck fucks like she's listening to cbat)

Note: Jet and Beck are female alphas, which means they both have penises. Your character should be okay with this if you pursue either of them. See the omegaverse explanation below for more info if you're not familiar with the trope.

Different opening messages to let you decide where to start the story. Use the arrow at the bottom of the message to scroll through them. Note: Some of these are super super different from the original so worst case scenario if the LLM messes up or forgets someone isn't supposed to be around, add in chat memory "xyz blah blah x character isnt in this story z thing happened" etc for consistency. Chat memory is a really high priority part of the prompt.

☆ Route 1/10: The original opening, unchanged. Late May. You arrive at the ranch.

☆ Route 2/10: NEW! Max's route. Early June. Riding lesson with Max. She doesn't trust you to exercise her horses yet.

☆ Route 3/10: NEW! Beck's route. Late June. Hayloft overnight to watch over a horse foaling.

☆ Route 4/10: NEW! Jet's route. Mid-October, rodeo just finished. She and Max have broken up after Max miscarried, Max moved out. Jet takes you out for drinks to get her mind off things.

☆ Route 5/10: NEW! 2 years later. Late May. Jet and Max stayed together, got married, and formed a permanent bond. Beck moved out to go to veterinary school. They offered you a permanent job at the ranch to replace Beck... but they're realizing they both had lingering, unresolved feelings of attraction towards you.

(Routes 6-10 are the same but with they/them pronouns.)

General info you need to know for the story, if you're unfamiliar with the trope. Full version of my omegaverse lore here!

All humans have a biological secondary gender (Alpha, Beta, Omega) determining primal instincts, hierarchy, and attraction.

Secondary Genders:

Alphas: Typically dominant, physically strong, protective. Emit commanding pheromones. Often leaders. Have penises.

Omegas: Often nurturing, perceptive, emit alluring pheromones. Experience heats (intense biological urges for bonding/mating). Have vaginas and wombs.

Betas: The majority population. Stable, less driven by primal urges.

Scent & Pheromones: Crucial for communication/attraction. Scents are unique, intense, and convey emotion/status.

Bonding:

Imprinting: An intense attraction with a feeling that the other party is one's fated mate.

Temporary Bond (Casual): Fades; a mutual and obsessive connection that slightly alters scents (each takes on hints of the other's scent profile). Usually formed by mutual imprinting or an intense and positive emotional knotting experience (i.e. feeling very close and connected, strong trust and affection). A bad breakup if broken; hints of each other's scents will linger while getting over it.

Permanent (Mating Bond): Biological/psychological tether formed via bite/mutual commitment. Intense, lifelong. Very physically and mentally painful if broken.

12/26/25 Patch Notes: (sorry this is long idk if you like this bot u like reading lmao)

What's New

☆ New Individual Routes! Jet's is split from Max so you can actually romance her.
☆ New Max/Jet Route, 2 years later: Beck leaves for vet school, you return to replace her full time. Your poly dreams realized.
☆ New art! Aged up slightly to better reflect their actual age and better match my headcanons for their images (I kind of had to settle while I was still figuring out Midjourney lol). If you miss the original art it's here.

What's Changed

☆ Max Personality Tweak: She now has a tiny bit more willingness to trust and shouldn't lash out quite as much while still retaining her character core. Slight difficulty reduction on her. Added that she bonds more easily to people who've had similar life experiences; if you want a shortcut to boost your relationship, play a character that can relate to something she's going through or went through.
☆ Max & Jet Relationship Tweak: They felt kinda fated to break up in the original. I wanted to give them a slightly deeper connection that could go either way; people growing apart naturally or working through their issues and coming out stronger. This dynamic is a little more fleshed out now.
☆ Character Opinion & Backstory Tweaks: They were missing emphasis on the reasons that Four Leaf Ranch is important to each of them. Added this as well as a little more clarity on Beck/Jet's relationship as more like family than friends.
☆ Scenario Timeline: Tweaked context in prose in the opening messages to make the time of year clear rather than having it in the scenario to allow for more freedom on additional routes.
☆ Casual Bonding: Definition enhanced and fixed in lorebook; I realized DeepSeek wasn't interpreting it 100% accurately all the time. Max and Jet canonized as having a casual bond in the main original route.
☆ Formatting: Slightly optimized language to compensate for increased tokens.
☆ Tag Change: I'll be so fr, I thought this was kinda smut when I published. It's actually plot heavy hurt/comfort, especially with this update lol.

This update is dedicated with immense love and thanks to Chewy, QG, and every other person who played this bot. Fun fact: Chewy was the first ever bot requester I had.

This bot in particular is so special to me. When I published this three months ago, I had 100 followers, and it FLOPPED. Big time flopped. I was so discouraged and thought, maybe this isn't for me, and I can't make the type of bots that the people I admire make. I took a week off, and when I came back, something happened: the messages count had suddenly started shooting up... and every time I looked it kept climbing.

This is the one I look back at to remind myself nothing is a flop if one person enjoyed it. Write the niche thing. Publish the things you think will flop. It's so uphill when you're just starting out, but your people will find you. I'm so glad I didn't quit.

Whatever you make, don't stop making it. Make something every day. The thing you make tomorrow will be even better.

If you're wondering about the title, the standard barrel racing pattern is a clover leaf.

I recommend GLM 4.7 for proxy now! It works well with my prompts (check profile links.)
