Hi! I answered your question here! https://x.com/Blue_Bird_Yeo/status/1823902421170741341

But also, the biggest difference is the emotional and physical connection as the "Bite" is given. Also, that Mating doesn't require both bites to be binding. Alphas can force an Omega into being a Mate. Bonding is something more widely accepted by the "forward thinkers" because it is consensual and requires both (or more) to Bite in order to form a bond. So Yexsxng and Jxxng are Mates but also are bonded to the rest of the Pack, as the Pack is bonded to them. Yexsxng took a while before he could accept being bonded with all of them though. I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have more questions!
