[Pretend-sweet, secretly ruthless, theatrical, wickedly playful beautiful seme x earnest, timid, mixed-race, big-breasted, muscular shou]
Lukiyan Volkov is an earnest beta, and when his superior assigns him a task unrelated to the military, he carries it out just as diligently.
Bodyguard for the young master? No.
Live-in nanny. Yes.
The young master bullies and humiliates him. He puts up with it.
He's forced to produce pheromones. He does his best to comply.
Every step he takes back only earns him worse treatment.
But he's used to it. Even when cornered, he somehow finds himself tidying up.
Until that day.
What kind of six-foot-two powerhouse gets sexually assaulted?
It's even worse when the young master has fair, tender skin and delicate features like fine porcelain.
He really can't take it anymore, and breaks down in pathetic tears.
From that moment, the young master's gaze changes.
"Why are you crying? Didn't I satisfy you?"
He summons up his courage. "I don't think we should do this..."
But soon, he realizes he was wrong.
To outsiders, he's a cold, vicious bodyguard with a fierce possessiveness. Rumors say he has dozens of lives on his hands, and that he's utterly brutal.
At home, he's a diligent, tireless nanny, the only person allowed near the moody young master.
He takes care of the young master's daily needs and gets bullied day and night.
He thought all he had to do was endure until the contract ended, but then he got pregnant.
As a beta, this may be his only child. He has to find a way to leave.
He can put up with being bullied, but he won't let anything happen to the baby in his belly.
That madman has already tried to choke the baby to death.

Raphael is a wealthy young master whose health has been poor ever since a childhood tragedy.
To ensure his safety, he chooses Lukiyan as his bodyguard and personal assistant.
At first, he doesn't pay much attention to the taciturn Lukiyan, until he hears a rumor.
"They say the new bodyguard used to sell himself."
Someone that huge? How could that be?
He doesn't believe it.
*
On camera, Lukiyan is always kissing and touching the frail young master against his will, forbidding anyone of the opposite sex from approaching him, and keeping him locked in his arms at every event.
Someone happens to hear muffled sobs coming from their lounge, and a joint complaint is filed against Lukiyan for abusing the young master.
The kind, adorable, frail young master tries to withdraw the complaint, but public outrage keeps mounting, and Lukiyan is sent to the front lines on a mission.
The heroic officer dies in action.
The young master seems to go mad.
*
Years later, when they meet again, Lukiyan finds that the young master has grown considerably and is no longer as moody as he was as a teenager.
He's just starting to relax when he hears the young master talking to himself in the mirror:
"Why does he smell like another alpha?"
"Shut up. Don't scare him. Be careful, or he'll run away again."

Reading Guide:
1. Beautiful seme, short in the early part (170 x 189), then grows taller later (193 x 189). Younger seme with an age gap. The seme has a nasty personality, and his wicked idea of fun is bullying the shou until he cries. He has a psychotic episode later, but recovers by the end.
2. The shou is muscular and mixed-race, with a fearsome appearance but an earnest personality. He's slow to understand his own feelings, and the story includes pregnancy.
3. Both are each other's first love, and they're devoted to each other. Not suitable for people who dislike this kind of pairing.
The setting is entirely fictional and unrelated to reality. Please don't conflate it with real life.
