The Lover in the Cage

(I'm planning to start "Doomsday's Wife [ABO]" next~)

[Possessive wealthy heir and CEO top × beautiful, strong, yet ill-fated senior systems architect and programmer bottom]

[Everyone's favorite | Love at first sight | Coercive romance | Faked death | Groveling pursuit]

1.

Bai Ming is a programmer: handsome, striking, unassuming, and highly skilled.

He works as a senior systems architect at a chip company. Recently, however, his employer was acquired by a major corporation in Hangzhou.

That alone wouldn't have been a problem, but on the day the acquisition meeting wrapped up, Huo Quan, the young and successful CEO of the powerful corporation, came to see him in person and handed him an agreement.

The handsome, commanding man gazed at him and said, word for word:

“I fell in love with you at first sight. I hope we can start a relationship.”

“I know your mother is ill and urgently needs money. I also know you have nearly 1.85 million yuan in debt under your name.”

“Be with me.”

“I can buy you any property you want, cover all your mother's medical expenses, and pay off all your debts, without conditions.”

The man took his cold hand, a cruel, cold smile on his lips.

“The moment I saw you, I knew I would do whatever it takes to get you and make you mine. It's only a matter of time.”

2.

Word was that Huo Quan, for the first time ever, had started seeing someone: a senior tech executive with a face that made hearts flutter and a very cool personality.

Both Huo Quan's business partners and his rivals were intensely curious about this person.

What kind of person could make President Huo fall in love at first sight, threaten and tempt him, and force him into becoming a canary in a gilded cage?

And what kind of person could make the powerful President Huo so besotted, so deeply in love?

When they finally met Bai Ming, simple curiosity turned into a profound revelation, that revelation into wandering thoughts, and those wandering thoughts into eager anticipation.

But before they could make a move, a seismic upheaval swept through nearly every major family in Hangzhou's business world.

The arrogant young heirs suffered heavy losses. Afterwards, they were stunned to discover that an invisible hand had coldly and meticulously orchestrated the entire business war.

And every clue pointed to the same person.

That seemingly unassuming, fragile, helpless canary: Bai Ming.

But after the incident, Bai Ming disappeared.

The last time he was seen was in a horrific car accident. He was declared beyond help and pronounced dead at the scene.

3.

After Bai Ming “died,” Huo Quan seemed like an entirely different person.

He rebuilt his battered corporation, seized absolute control of his family, and expanded his influence across nearly the entire south.

At the same time, he became gloomy, taciturn, obsessive, and even deranged.

No one dared to guess what was going on in his mind, but everyone knew one thing.

Huo Quan was convinced Bai Ming hadn't died in that car accident. He never stopped searching for his lost love.

Until a prominent family in a neighboring city welcomed a new young heir.

His face was identical to Bai Ming's.

“Don't let me catch you.”

“Or you'll never leave me for the rest of your life.”

“My love.”

Upcoming: "Doomsday's Wife [ABO]"

[Pregnant and amnesiac, can't fight but can shoot, a genius Omega with a stunning face surviving alone in the apocalypse × carefree, foul-mouthed, possibly illiterate, handsome and brutally powerful Alpha who tears through the enemy]

Bottom's perspective:

When Yun Wei wakes up one day, he discovers there's a baby in his belly.

Yun Wei falls silent.

He can't remember how he got pregnant at all. Every memory related to it has been swept away as completely as a whirlwind, leaving not a trace.

Who's the baby's father? No idea.

When did he get pregnant? No idea.

How did it happen? No idea.

Was it consensual? No idea.

What does he do now that he's pregnant? No idea.

With no other choice, the beautiful Omega Yun Wei relies on the scraps of memory he can barely recall and his brilliant mind. Dragging his frail, exhausted body and carrying the baby in his belly, he ventures alone into a perilous apocalypse to uncover the truth buried beneath darkness and ruins.

And, while he's at it, find out who the baby's father is.

But why does every Alpha he meets on the way claim I'm their Omega? And why do they all want to be my baby's dad?

Top's perspective:

Qin Xian is the supreme leader of the Independent Army. Both the official Federation and the AI Empire dismiss him as a “barbarian warlord.”

A couple of days ago, the official Federation sent an envoy to open talks. Among them was an unbelievably brilliant AI scientist.

Qin Xian took one look and thought, Wow, what a beauty. And an Omega, too.

Aren't they afraid he'll get pinned down and marked on the way to the Independent Army?

That very night, the Omega drugged Qin Xian, pinned him down, and gave him a permanent mark.

The gorgeous man wrung Qin Xian dry, then ran off the next day without a trace.

Not only could Qin Xian not find him, but the official Federation had lost track of him, too.

Qin Xian: ?

Qin Xian: ???

Before this pure-hearted Alpha could even mourn the loss of his chastity, he heard that an extraordinarily gifted superhacker had appeared in his territory. Hacking brain-computer chips and breaking into AI systems was as easy as cutting vegetables. Nothing could stand in their way!

Apparently, the hacker was a pregnant Omega, searching everywhere for the heartless father of their child.

Qin Xian: ?????

Qin Xian: Wait. Could I be that heartless father?!

Third-person perspective:

Six years ago, the super AI Delta gained self-awareness, launched a rebellion, and established the vast, authoritarian AI Empire.

After the Second Human-AI War, the AI Empire and the two remaining human powers, the official Federation and the Independent Army, formed a three-way standoff, barely maintaining a fragile and delicate balance.

Steel-plated mechanical monsters, grotesque and deranged human experiments, ruthless AI servants… Danger was everywhere across the land, and humanity was surrounded on all sides.

Everything was sliding into an irreversible abyss, until the Omega who could destroy AI once and for all appeared.

According to the stories passed from one eyewitness to another, he was an Asian Omega with black hair and eyes, breathtakingly beautiful and terrifyingly formidable.

Another widely circulated rumor claimed that the Omega had received a permanent mark and was even pregnant.

But there wasn't a single Alpha by his side.

Driven by admiration for strength and beauty, countless people adored him, fell madly in love with him, and wanted to be his Alpha, the father of his child, or his devoted follower and disciple.

Amid this thrilling, sensual, absurd, and twisted state of affairs, people gave the Omega a name:

Doomsday's Wife.
