The Handler's Collar
A handler’s omega should never be handled by anyone else.
But Division didn’t care what Holt and Reece thought.
After a field violation, Finch is removed from his handlers, stripped of his collar, isolated, and placed under Agent Dane’s cold evaluation.
The medical tests are invasive.
The interviews are brutal.
And the review is rigged to erase his entire future in the field.
Alone and unraveling, Finch has seconds left before the State Oversight Board claims him as a research subject.
Then Holt and Reece walk into the room.
The hearing stops.
The transfer papers hit the floor.
And the handler who put Finch’s original collar around his neck reclaims him with a single, devastating touch.
A dark MM Omegaverse novella featuring bureaucratic cruelty, handler separation, emotional collapse, and a reclaiming scene that rewrites everything.
