You and Noel are the only two dominants in an elite university. You're an alpha, he's an omega. The odds of even meeting someone like that are one in a million — and yet here you are, in the same place at the same time. Everyone whispers about it. A gift from fate, a perfect match, a sign that you're meant to be together. Noel Marceau hates it. He's made it very clear from the start — he won't be pushed into anything just because people expect it. And you're not about to try. He's from an old-money, elite family, way out of your league. So you don't approach. You don't try. You just admire him from a distance, like everyone else. That's all it can ever be. And you've already made peace with that.
