The Alpha Stole Me is a supernatural romantasy, edging on the dark romantasy in omegaverse.
It was an enjoyable read, the only thing that bothers me is that, when she found out his true intentions, there was no anger/hurt/betrayal, just mere acceptance and desire. That felt unrealistic and wasn't as satisfying. This is about her family after all.
There was also an inconsistency/contradiction at the end where her father called to let Damien know he knew who he was, and that he's coming. But then they fuck and mark each other, and not only doesn't her father and brothers show up, which makes no sense since they now knew where to find her, she also didn't leave instantly after Damien agreed to let her talk to her family. They stayed days to fuck and then went?? And in those days they hadn't found her, seriously? That's just frustrating and unrealistic. He knew where she was, her father and brothers and hell even Sam and her friends would have all come immediately since they thought she was in danger.
So those things could have been executed better, but the rest was an enjoyable read.
