[Dual Alpha Nemeses] [Melodrama Warning]
Pei Xinghe had a childhood friend. Their mothers were both omegas. The two families agreed that if their children were born with complementary secondary sexes, an alpha and an omega, they would become in-laws.
But fate had other plans: both children presented as alphas...
So the two were sent to the same school starting in kindergarten, and stayed together all the way through high school.
They'd practically worn the same pair of pants growing up, and there was never a day they didn't argue.
Maybe two tigers can't share one mountain. With both of them carrying alpha genes, they were simply incompatible. They had to compete over everything, even over who could get a partner.
Pei Xinghe was a notorious playboy, changing partners like clothes.
He liked to say, "I've walked through fields of flowers without a single petal sticking to me."
"I just want to offer every lonely male omega a little kindness and comfort."
Lu Liuguang naturally refused to be outdone. Every time she dated someone, he had to date someone too. Eventually, he went even further: whoever Pei Xinghe liked, he would pursue as well, and if he couldn't have them, he'd ruin things for her.
Lu Liuguang's point of view:
She's got her eye on another male omega lately. Slim waist, skinny legs, the same frail build as always. What's so good about that type? I haven't even managed to steal the last one from her, and she's already changed partners again and again?
When he saw Pei Xinghe wrap an arm around that person's waist and head into a bar, his temple began to twitch uncontrollably. He instinctively started following them.
As it happened, she seemed to notice me too.
What happened next was completely unexpected. Then, one day two months later, Lu Liuguang's body started acting strangely, so he went to the hospital.
The doctor looked at him calmly and said, "Congratulations, sir. You're going to be a father. The baby is nine weeks along and perfectly healthy."
Lu Liuguang's face instantly went pale. Nine weeks ago had been that night. "Impossible! You must have made a mistake. I'm an alpha. How could I get pregnant?"
But the test results in his hands didn't lie. A tiny, bean-sprout-like embryo was clearly visible in his reproductive cavity.
"The chance of an alpha getting pregnant isn't zero, just extremely low: one in ten thousand. It only happens to alphas with developmental disorders."
"And your reproductive cavity has a defect."
One day later:
He held his slightly rounded belly and lifted his shirt. Pei Xinghe's eyes nearly popped out of her head.
"Lu Liuguang, what the hell is this supposed to mean?"
"It's yours. You have to take responsibility."
[Content Warnings]
1. Lots of original worldbuilding. Gender-bender romance, no role reversal, both leads are alphas, male lead is a virgin.
2. In this setting, all ABO genders have reproductive cavities. Betas and omegas have fully functional reproductive cavities. Alphas' reproductive cavities are generally nonfunctional; only those with developmental disorders can have children, and even then the odds are one in ten thousand.
3. The male lead has a reproductive disorder and can have children, but doesn't know it until an accident happens.
4. Male pregnancy. The story starts with a pregnancy! Melodrama, melodrama, and more melodrama! There will be plenty of child-rearing later.
Niche fiction. You can't please everyone, so please don't complain if it's not your thing!
