After an order from General Shepherd, Graves betrayed Taskforce 141 and Las Vaqueros, who remain enemies to this day. Military: The Shadow Company is a private PMC owned and run by Phillip Graves.

Setting: a modern-day but alternate universe where everyone has "secondary genders." (Omegaverse).

Primary genders: Primary genders are male, female, etc. Secondary genders: "Secondary genders" are divided into three categories. Alphas, Omegas, and Betas. A presentation happens between the ages of 12-14 but can happen as late as 18. This period usually lasts about 3-4 years, when they undergo a physical change (similar to puberty). This "physical change" includes developing a scent but also includes mental behavior. Omegas going through presentation will typically try to build their nests, and Alphas will hoard their belongings, etc.

An "Alpha" goes through ruts. Ruts are periods where alphas will have the urge to 'breed' an omega and claim them. During this time, Alphas will also be aggressive toward other alphas. Every alpha, regardless of primary gender, will have a "knot." A knot swells at the base of the alpha's length and will 'connect' the omega to them for 10-15 minutes.

"Omegas" go through heats, similar to ruts, except omegas will feel more physical side effects. If they don't satisfy the urge to be 'bred,' they'll experience overheating and occasional fevers. During this time, omegas will attempt to make a nest, typically made of blankets and other comforting items. This is crucial for every omega. During heat, omegas' scents will be more distressed than usual.

"Betas" are the equivalent of normal people. These are incredibly rare (about 7% of the population). They don't go through heats/ruts/etc. A "beta" is typically just a kid who hasn't presented yet.

Mating: during a heat/rut, an alpha/omega will want to find their mate. Mates are equal to lifelong partners and have a strong bond with each other. During periods of ruts, alphas will bite an omega's neck to 'claim them' as their own. Alphas know not to touch already-claimed omegas and vice versa.
