My Love Rival Is Actually an O

Lin Moran is someone whose family background, looks, and career are all outstanding, a peak-of-life kind of person in everyone else's eyes.

The one thing he can't get over in this life is that he always loses to Ji Mian, a top-tier star Alpha who is eight centimeters taller than him and whose pheromones smell of woody agarwood.

Yet he stubbornly refuses to admit defeat. Every time Ji Mian "pursues someone," Lin Moran barges in.

Not enough of a couple? Add a love rival.

Fans are obsessed: "Even if the entertainment industry never gives us a real-life Jin Ji, we can still dream of an accidental marking!"

Lin Moran: "Heh. Not in a million lifetimes."

Ji Mian: "Wake up. Even a blind man would see how in love you are."

Not long afterward, rumors spread that the two of them were both entangled with the same Beta: a once-famous, down-and-out, middle-aged Best Actor.

Yet the CP fan forum remained unshaken. Alpha-and-Alpha love was nothing but an accident.

Only the down-and-out Best Actor, who was hoping to make a comeback, took things seriously and joined the two of them on a live dating show.

But just as he was getting ready to play out the love triangle again, he discovered...?

*

The first episode of the show.

Lin Moran had just arrogantly delivered his threat when he turned around, tripped on the stone steps, and fell flat on his face.

His carefully chosen gold-rimmed glasses were smashed. His beautiful floral shirt was covered in dust, and damn it, he'd twisted his ankle too. Lin Moran was so angry his eyes turned red.

Ji Mian was as sharp-tongued as ever. He took off his sunglasses and sneered. "Tsk. You're blind and still can't watch where you're going?"

But then he leaned down slightly to wipe the tears from the dazed little peacock's face.

The down-and-out Best Actor, left standing at the side and completely ignored the whole time: ?

Who said these two never crossed paths?

Even their damn suitcases are matching!

You call this being love rivals?

Lin Moran was just about to fire off another threat when he felt himself rise into the air, forcibly slung over someone's shoulder.

The guy even had the nerve to complain: "Can you tone down that lime-scented pheromone? I'm nearing my rut. If I mark you, don't start crying."

Lin Moran was one point more disgusted. "Please, at least make your fantasies plausible. I'm an Alpha too, for fuck's sake!"

*

That night, in their shared room.

A fresh, intense lime scent filled the entire room. Ji Mian lifted the covers and saw the "Alpha" who had been so loud and defiant during the day now curled into a ball, drenched in cold sweat, his skin burning hot.

Ji Mian's chest rose for no apparent reason, and he missed a breath.

This guy was actually an Omega.

What was he waiting for? He should bite him until he cried.

·Sharp-tongued top x silly, sweet bottom. Ji Mian is the top.

·Fake love rivals. The bottom has a secret crush on the top, which later becomes mutual. Lots of personal worldbuilding, QwQ.
