There is a sub-section of the recognizably human standard in the multiverse that, at first glance, appear no different whatsoever to "standard" humans. Experienced travelers have learned the distinction, however, and speak of it in hushed tones. These experienced travelers have a name for it, and when they spread the information on what fragmented information networks that exist to span the multiverse, they use a single, seemingly innocuous name: The Omegaverse.
Sunset Shimmer, formerly student of Princess Celestia, unicorn, and first time universe-hopper, has the misfortune, or perhaps serendipity, to stumble onto a human world that mirrors her native pony-dominated home to an uncanny degree, save for one thing; this universe is one of those that exists in The Omegaverse. These humans developed as a part of their magical field traits commonly associated with wolves. Alphas become the leaders and find mates with Omegas, Betas are the majority of the population.
When Sunset Shimmer transited to this world, she did so via a magical portal that "rewrote" her base form to be better adapted for this new world, but there's a catch: Where any traveller from any human world transit by a similar method, their own mythologies and often histories include similar creatures, usually called werewolves, that the magic could pattern the visitor after. Equestria has no such being in it's history or legends.
But there is one intelligent species in Equestria that is quite common that has all the matching traits in their biology, social structure, and power dynamic to the Alphas, Betas, and Omegas of the human world...
Sunset Shimmer will not be able to simply blend into the student body, the school's Alpha, Principal Celestia, scents the strange new Alpha cub right away.
The jig is thoroughly up, and for her own safety, Shimmer is adopted into Celestia's pack. Sunset must navigate an unfamiliar world in a strange body that seems to be betraying her at every turn, and Celestia must deal with challenges never before faced by an Alpha to keep her pack members and the secret to Sunset's unique nature hidden from the world. Because Sunset Shimmer is not an ordinary Alpha, she's a Deviation

Yes, this is an Omegaverse story, no, it's not fetish-fuel or clop. I'm expecting to touch on sex, sexual themes, and there's some rather in-depth discussion of the biology of a dual-gendered species.
