Yeah, I like that. Except... what you meant is not outside a fated pair, but DESPITE their fated pair is alive. I have seen others where they end up together when their fated pair died and such. Or just no fated pair (or the concept of it).
I do like that. I hope there are others.
I know that there's one more, but I don't remember the name, but the bottom was in college when he meets his destined pair and he was like hell no, I like my man, and the top already knew his faited but they don't stay together either. (If someone knows this one)
Romantic Lament is one...
That's the one!!
I think this one is a pretty good match to what you’re looking for :p VERY similar to this one minus the sex worker part. Find the ending a little more realistic as well :))

This one matches your description!
It’s my first time reading an omegaverse where the main couple gets together outside of a fated pair. Are there any similar stories like this?
