My name is Yun Li, and I'm an Omega. I've lived a fairly ordinary life until now, but lately I've been having a little bit of bad luck.
First I got sick, and the doctor told me I'd need to take medication long-term. One of its ingredients reacts badly with the suppressants on the market, so I can no longer rely on suppressants to get through my heat.
Doctor: "Do you have an Alpha?"
Me: "...Yes."
Doctor: "Good, then it's easy to handle. A temporary mark will do the trick."
Here's the problem: what if I just found out that the Alpha I'm dating is cheating on me?
Late at night, feeling down, I posted online to vent about my recent troubles, planning to delete it at dawn.
But I unexpectedly got a reply.
It was from a male Alpha. His profile had just one photo, of a hand with distinct knuckles and slightly raised veins. This damn hand fetish of mine was completely captivated for several seconds.
He kindly comforted me, saying he had similar troubles.
He couldn't use suppressants either, and his rut was hard to get through.
On impulse, I asked him: [Want to help each other out?]
It had nothing to do with love, just physical mutual aid. There was nothing unusual about that between an Alpha and an Omega.
I tried to reassure myself, but my face was burning hot. Just as I was about to unsend the message, I got a reply:
[Sure.]
Gu Shihuai first met Yun Li at his friend Huo Xiao's birthday party.
At the time, Yun Li was Huo Xiao's Omega.
Huo Xiao was a playboy. Gu Shihuai had no idea how he'd managed to charm such an innocent young woman.
A soft, fair Omega, with a waist so slim he could wrap one hand around it.
Gu Shihuai couldn't help thinking about her.
On the day they finally met, Gu Shihuai had specially set aside an entire floor of VIP suites to host Yun Li.
"M-Mr. Gu, let's make this clear beforehand. W-We only take care of the physical stuff, nothing else..." The young woman was in heat, her whole body flushed pink. She looked embarrassed and frightened, tears welling in her eyes, yet she tried to act composed.
The lychee-scented pheromones filling the room made Gu Shihuai's breathing grow heavier.
So sweet, so adorable. He'd gone to all this trouble to coax her here. She should be his wife.
"I-If you don't want to, then we can just forget..."
Gu Shihuai didn't let her finish saying "forget it." He kept his expression cool and calm, as if she meant nothing to him.
"All right. Your way. We'll just be bed partners."
Having gotten the answer she wanted, the young woman relaxed.
The Alpha stopped suppressing his physical response. Whiskey-scented pheromones spread forcefully through the room, completely enveloping the lychee scent. He leaned down, holding her trembling waist as his teeth lightly grazed the back of the Omega's neck while she whimpered nonstop.
"Don't be afraid, Zhizhi. This is only a temporary mark."
Sweet, juicy little lychee x cold, aloof whiskey
[!] The heroine's nickname is Zhizhi
Theme: Sweet girls are the best. Not one aloof guy can make it out alive after getting close to one.
