**Bael's POV**
Bael had investigated him after that first night.
Of course he had.
The omega who'd approached him at Eclipse Bar, drunk and reckless, eyes dark with something that looked like self-destruction, who'd followed him back to the hotel, desperate and willing as Bael fucked him over and over.
Bael had needed to know who he was, what he wanted, if this was a setup.
The report came back within hours.
Li Runze, twenty-two years old, Omega, son of the Li family.
Feifei's younger brother.
The connection had been... inconvenient.
Bael had already agreed to the engagement by then, already signed preliminary partnership agreements, the wedding was being planned, merger discussions underway, everything set in motion.
And he'd fucked his future wife's brother.
Wonderful.
