Kee is a free omega who does what he wants, every alpha wants him. He’s beautiful and always high and in for sexual activity. Until he’s thrown in a cage by a very dangerous boss. They want information and he doesn’t have it.
Bast has to look after Kee, the omega in the cage. Something about this omega speaks to him.
But his boss wants the omega dead after they tortured him awfully.
Instead of killing Kee, Bast keeps him safe in his home.
That’s easier said than done. An omega at home and being the right hand of his boss, it’s almost impossible.

Escaping dead and being kept behind closed doors and curtains is hard for the broken omega.
Why does Bast keeps him close and takes care of him?

Gosh, this was a varied story with action, violence, addiction, deadly environments, and even time for sweet bond calls.
An awesomely written story, some delicious actions beautifully painted so we can enjoy every second and every move. I enjoyed this narrative immensely!!

I'll be honest, I couldn't place who Kee was until the end with the Tarin meet-up and then I had an "aww" moment... *headdesk* LOL!!!

Even without the backstory to fall back on, I found Kee to be an intriguing character and was glad to see that we didn't have as much angst as I feared we would have... Ms. Rathbone keeps us on our toes with what "could" go wrong and what actually does go wrong... so glad to see there was so much "going right" in this one, also! *grin*

Bast was our usual "tall, dark and handsome" with an extra of "badass" and "bad guy" stirred in for shits and giggles... well, NO giggles from Bast... although we do get a grin or two before the end of the book!

Although, I do want to say that I found this to be the most disturbing thing in the book...

I lay back on the soft pillows, alone in the room, studying the ceiling and the trim around it which I’d painted dark purple. I’d done a great job. The walls of the room itself were a paler blue which offset the dark furniture and the long black curtains and the black bedspread.

I just can't get my brain to wrap around that color combo... maybe it's just me? *shudders* LOL!!!

This was an omegaverse but read more like a motorcycle club or gang book, not what I'm into. The writing was stiff too, Bast hasn't met a contraction he likes, clearly. Kee did silly things. 'Oh, I have an old, thug killer after me and I'm supposed to stay indoors? Whatevs, I'll say hi to the neighbour. Urgh! And the whole, hey, just call me Daddy stuff jumped out of absolutely freaking nowhere.
No particular chemistry here either.
It was just okay, just. I won't be jumping into this world again.

I put off reading this book because I knew it was going to feature Kee, an Omega from the fifth book of the Omega Misfits series OMEGA CHATTEL. I didn't like Kee. His deplorable behavior was a complete turn off. I wanted happiness for Alpha Tarin & the Omega Alli, but Kee's presence always there even when he wasn't actually around, meant Tarin couldn't seem to move on.

I really enjoy this series and always eagerly anticipate the newest release. But I hesitated because of Kee when OMEGA UNTAMED was released. I read a few other books & finally I reluctantly began Kee's book. OMG was I shocked and abashed by my hesitancy. I absolutely loved this book! Despite being an alcoholic, drug addict, and man whore Kee actually was a sympathetic character. I attribute this to the excellent writing skills of the author Wendy Rathbone, being able to change your feelings about a character you used to not like. And cold distant Alpha Bast the bodyguard and right hand man of a vicious Drug lord became a hero. The villain in this book was despictible. Sleazy wrinkled creep. Monster!

There is violence with both mental and physical abuse. Lies abound, as does paranoia. But having someone believe in and support him, yet not trying to mold him into something he is not makes an otherwise "worthless" Omega who never thought he had anything to give or was deserving of anything good into a honorable man. Kee changed Bast for the better. Opening a closed heart and bringing happiness where there hadn't been.

I can not praise this book enough! Read it, as a matter of fact read the entire series!

I really enjoyed reading this Mpreg omegaverse romance & one of the characters “Kee” was introduced to the reader in “Omega Chattel #5” & I was very pleased that he got his own story. This book can be read as a standalone although I would recommend reading the series to fully understand the underlying storyline. The plot is highly intriguing, well-written & filled with totally unexpected suspenseful situations that has well-described scenes & good world building. The characters are well-developed with realistic flaws & have good chemistry between them although it was a quite a journey before they finally got their HEA.
There is: a problematic young male omega sex-worker (Kee) is abducted by some henchmen (Stone & Bast) in the employment of a despicable alpha drug lord (Myre) but is later rescued by the alpha (Bast) who abducted him, law enforcement, drug lords, drug addition, undercover investigations, alphas, omegas, twists & turns, intrigue, suspense, secrets, torture, deceit, betrayal, complications, protectiveness, vulnerability, confusion, indecision, strange attractions, suspicions, confrontations, complications, injuries, bonding, surprises, compromises, happiness, contentment & a well-deserved happy conclusion.

The Omega you saved says he's irredeemable. Is he though?

I love the Omega Misfits books; where Alphas have Burns, women no longer exist & omegas are treated like chattel. This world is alive, vibrant, full of sexy, intriguing men. There are secrets, kidnapping, violence, courage, addiction, withdrawal, and really hot sex. You will love this book!
If you have been reading this series, you know about Kee. Sexy AF, too pretty, street- wise, wild & addicted to steam, Kee has a reputation. A reputation that puts him square in the sights of the local crime lord. Tortured, knowing he is going to die, Kee is saved by Bast. Bast works for Myre. He carries a deadly secret. He is also drawn to Kee, who he knows is innocent of the crime Myre accuses him of. Faking Kee's death & taking him home isn't the smartest thing Bast has ever done, but it just feels right.
Hiding from Myre while starting to bond isn't easy. As their love grows so does the danger. Bast & Kee will get their HEA, and Kee will resolve an old debt. I loved this book!
This book contains adult themes and language, mm sex and is intended for mature readers only.

Omega Untamed, the sixth book in The Omega Misfits series, is great. Wendy Rathbone continues to entertain with this story. This can be read as a standalone, but is best read following Omega Chattel, where we spend time learning Kee's background.

Kee is a man of the streets. He sells himself, runs drugs, etc. Everyone knows who he is but his life is upended when he's taken captive. He finds himself in trouble, but luckily one of his captures is on his side.

Bast is one of the men tasked with kidnapping Kee. He's a gangster who sees something special in Kee, showing him some humanity and compassion. And ultimately he tries to save his life.

This is a story with danger, suspense, and intrigue. There's a tough to read, detailed, intense drug withdrawal.

Written in alternating 1st person pov, this is well written, with an intriguing storyline. The characters are well developed and their complex nature well established.

Omega Untamed is not an easy, happy read. But Wendy Rathbone will leave you satisfied with a happy ending for this unlikely couple. I couldn't put it down.

So, I'm going to be completely honest here, while reading Omega Cattle where I first heard of Kee, I really didn't like him....until the very end. He was described as an omega that used people for his own selfish reasons. That was an accurate description of him, until he showed up at the end and was a different person. In his book here, we discover just what kind of mess Kee had landed himself in. I must say, finding yourself on the bad side of a drug lord is not somewhere fun to be. Unfortunately for drug addicted Kee, this is exactly where he finds himself. What he is put through is horrible, and it leaves him broken. Bast being the drug lords right hand man, one of Kee's abductors, and the man tasked with ending Kee, finds himself catching feelings. Bast is all alpha, no question about it. He's a tall, dark, handsome badass. The journey we are lead on with these two was an amazing adventure full of action, betrayal, pain, confusion, comfort, protectiveness, and finally a happy ending. While my first opinion of Kee was an unfavorable one, that changed during this book, I was happy to see his change/growth, and was glad he found his happiness with Bast.

Was glad Kee was given his own story and seeing he was more than the drug addict lose omega on a downward spiral. He did have depth but his it under the drugs and sex. At first it was a way to survive, but with the steam it became even more. Kee thought he was wise and calculating, only to be caught by his own devices. Thank God for Bast or he would have wound up with lead shoes.
Bast didn't really want Kee in the beginning. He only wanted to save him cause he knew he was the real reason Kee was in this situation. There was an attraction on both sides, but only by helping Kee through his withdrawals did Bast realize he wanted more.
I was afraid Myre was going to cause him more pain and there was going to be more angst. Thank God or thank Sam, that was not the case.
Another successful HEA.

Omega Kee is beautiful and a popular rent boy in the Trenches of Old Town. He is also an addict who appears to be impossible to tame. Kidnapped by Alpha drug lords who think he knows too much he is trapped until an Alpha called Bast rescues him and tries to tame him through kindness and holding him down to keep him from the worst of himself.

I enjoyed this story with the out-of-control Kee who was hiding from people so that he would never get hurt. Bast was working undercover and put everything at risk to help Kee but he could not help him as he was innocent and I believe could feel a connection to him. Easy to read, feel and understand. The times when Kee was hurting while Bast cared for him were very special. This was an MM story with mature content with a Daddy/boy dynamic set in the Omegaverse with a Mpreg.

Omega Untamed, the 6th book in Ms Rathbone's Omega Misfits series can be read as a standalone, however I believe that book 5 (Omega Chattel) should be read prior as MC Kee is mentioned several times in book 5 and you'd get a better perspective of Kee's backstory.

Omega Kee is a troubled sex worker who finds wakes up to discover that he's in locked in a cage. Alpha Bast, druglord's second in command is the only alpha who shows him any kindness.
Bast fakes Kee's murder and in order to keep them both safe, hides Kee away in his home.
This installment added an element of danger to the series as Bast tries to figure out what to do with Kee while maintaining his cover in the drug ring.

I enjoyed the personality of both MCs. Kee, a little bit broken, needing the help and safety that grumpy Bast afforded.
This book is a well written story that kept me engaged through out.

Good story!

Kee is a very beautiful and sexy Omega, he knows it and knows how to work it. All the Alphas want him, but Kee just wants their adulation, their money, and drugs.
Kee thinks he has everyone in the palm of his hand, until he doesn't. He wakes up in a cage in the hands of a not so stable drug lord, Myre.

Bast has been working gor Myre for two years. He is his trusted right hand and does whatever it takes to get the job done; until he's ordered to kill Kee.
Now Bast has to keep Kee safe, hidden and away from drugs while hoping a paranoid drug boss doesn't find him out.

The story was entertaining. There wasn't a lot of Daddy/boy kink (that's not a complaint, just observation.)

I have now read the whole of the Omega Misfits series, and this is the only I was somewhat disappointed in. Kee has an interesting backstory but not a lot of it and the main character is more Sebastian than him. Sebastian who is a thug takes a liking to Kee and decided to protect him from a major kingpin. The romance travels and there are a number of sweet moments, but I just was not into Kee as much as the others. Near the end the book and Kee redeem themselves by Kee being the hero and I did clap. I do recommend reading this, just be aware that there is a scene of Kee being harmed which bothered me because it was unexpected, but it did make sense in context of the environment that he was in. This did come off as a bit of a rush job, but it was still worth it.

When you can't help yourself and stay out of trouble and danger, sometimes you need someone to take you in hand. Such an omega is Kee, and Bast is just the man to save him from himself. The story has some angst, danger, drama and suspense, and a few surprises. I loved the way Bast took care of Kee. It was the last thing you would expect from a hard-as-nail drug enforcer. This book is a bit grittier than some of the others in the series, with drug use and violence, but ultimately there is love and connection. Very enjoyable and entertaining read.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Kee has shown up previously in the series and this time he gets his hard-won HEA. After a difficult childhood, omega Kee just wants to live it up in the club life. Drug-addicted, he works as a rent boy to make ends meet. When he gets on the wrong side of a local mob boss, Kee is kidnapped and threatened by death.

Bast is the 2nd to the mob boss. When he's ordered to lock Kee up, it goes against the grain for some unknown reason. How will he feel when his boss roughs up Kee? What will he do when his boss orders Kee killed? He doesn't know what he feels, but he knows he will protect Kee. This book has danger, a slow-burn romance, and passion. I look forward to the next book in the series.

FANTASTIC

WOW!!! This is a TERRIFIC story. Bast is an Alpha, who works for a mobster. Kee is an Omega who is on the mobsters list. This book takes unexpected turns. But not so unexpected if you are familiar with WENDY RATHBONE and the fearless way she writes. These books can be read as stand alones BUT you would miss out on a lot of EXTRAORDINARY characters. I was so thrilled that Kee was getting his own story. I loved this book. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK AND THIS IMPRESSIVE SERIES!!!!!!

Kee is kidnapped because someone thinks he knows too much but forms a bond of sorts with one of the kidnappers called Bast. Bast is the epitome of tall, dark and handsome but he shows a compassionate side with Kee. Kee has an addiction that has kept him from living his life but with help from Bast he gets better. The chemistry between them is perfect and they both really grow as characters. An intriguing story dealling with substance abuse and taking a chance. A really satisfying ending that will make you smile.

WOW! I love how with each new book the dystopian world built in this series became wider, including more interesting characters that helped to understand better the ambiance and society on It. Bast and Kee are the reflect of this world but at the same time they made a sweet and endearing couple. In a complex plot full of despair and danger, Bast's protectiveness and Kee's faith in the future brought them together and both found in each other what they were looking for. The story was emotional and intense but as always, love is the answer for everything. A captivating reading!

Loved it!

I loved Omega Untamed. It's the sixth book in the Omega Misfits series. I loved how alive Kee was. He knew his faults and that because of his choices he probably wouldn't live a very long life but he lived it to the fullest. But everything changed when he met Bast. Bast was supposed to kill him but ended up rescuing him instead. He ended up being everything that Kee needed in an alpha. Great story, and great addition to the series. I read this book using the Kindle unlimited program.

Kee’s adventures aren’t always pleasant but they keep you reading. Meeting Bast probably felt like a curse but it was truly a blessing. This book has such exciting elements but also a love story built in, as well. Great characters take you on an exciting journey and leave you pleased at the end. I found it especially satisfying to have Kee’s perspective of his and Tarin’s goodbye from book 5. I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.

I am thrilled to finally get Kee's story! We heard about Kee in the pervious book and now we get to find out what happened to him during his mysterious disappearance. This book was so good. I LOVED Bast and Kee together. You could cut the tension with a knife and when they finally gave in it was hot as hell. 🔥 This book was full of great things, danger, excitement, love, and fulfillment. I'm so glad Wendy decided to give us another book in this wonderful series.

Emotional adventure

I give this story as many stars as I can. It was moving and I felt like the storyline was a easy and in gaging. I felt so bad for Kee in his profession it is hard not to become lost and was glad when Bast saves him from the drug dealers and himself. Bast is a kind and tough Alpha who shows Kee his worth. They finally get there HEA and have the cutest finger painting Alpha son Baski. Great Read from start to finish.

I love this world that Wendy Rathbone has built. There is twist and turns, suspense, and a HEA! The story is well written with awesome character development. So many feel-good emotions!

I read and voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this story. I have followed and read this series from the beginning and while it can be read as a standalone I highly recommend reading them from the beginning. In this one, Bast, the alpha working for a mobster, and Kee is the Omega who is on the mobster's list. You will take one hell of a roller coaster ride reading this one as you follow their twist and turns throughout. Another wonderful addition to the collection.

Kee was this mystery Omega from the last book in the series. He did deserve his story told. I liked that he was a strong omega, even wild and untamed omegas can find love. Sebastian was a broody Alpha who served as second in command to a wrinkly old and mean Alpha. What good could come from that? I enjoyed the slow burn on this book. Bastian was controlled and oozed Alpha while Kee showed his strength and fortitude on an awful situation. They het their HEA though.

Kee's long waited for story

It was great to finally read Kee's story after reading so much about him in the previous book featuring Tarin. There were quite a few moments where I thought oh gawd how's this going to go? And oh poop he's in for it now! But Bast was there for him, there's more to Bast than it would appear. Wonderfully different view on Alphas and Omegas with the Alpha going through the Burn rather than the Omega going into heat...

I was very curious about Kee since I read about him in the previous book and I'm glad I got his story and can now understand him a bit more. Kee definitely needs a savior, a firm hand, and lots of loving care. Bast is just the alpha to give it to him. This story is full of drama, action, danger and lots of love. Kee and Bast are incredible together and when they finally give in to their feelings, it is explosive! I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

Omegaverse crossing with Mafia makes this an interesting tale indeed. Kee is a cocky, arrogant young Omega that thinks only of himself and how much money he can get from Alpha's that are drawn by his beauty. That is until one day it all went so terribly wrong. I enjoyed this story of intrigue and dangerous dealings. I was a little unsure at first, Kee didn't seem a nice person, it did get better, soooo much better. This seems to be part of a series, I'm intrigued.

I am late to this party 🥳. I have for some reason not read any of the other books in the series and really didn’t feel like I had missed all that much background as the characters were really very intriguing. Kee is doing the best he can with what he’s got, while dulling then edges with sex, alcohol and drugs. Bast is not what he seems, and for some reason wants to save Kee.
It was well written and I will go back and read the rest of the series.

This installment was a much more solid novel than the previous, which happened to be my least favorite and had me contemplating not reading more in this series or by the author. I'm beyond thrilled that decided to give Kee a chance. Slow-burn in the romance department, with a faster paced storyline and a firm plot. A page-turner.
