After Fleeing My Wedding, the Spoiled Omega Dropped the Act

Running away from an arranged marriage, but not all the way.

*

Lucas Cedric is the beloved youngest Omega son of an imperial general. He's arrogant but useless, a famously beautiful airhead who has reached pairing age but still lazes around at home, living off his family.

The young master pouts and lets people say whatever they want. Then he logs into his top-ranked account, "Morningstar," on a combat simulation program and secretly beats the hell out of everyone who's badmouthed him.

The top players online are all looking for "Morningstar," hoping to drag him out of the virtual program for a real-life one-on-one brawl.

The talented people in the royal family and the military have all been investigated. No one has imagined that the general's spoiled, headstrong Omega son is the person they're looking for.

The young master hints at it a thousand different ways, but no one is willing to believe he's the top-ranked player. Instead, they mock him mercilessly: "Stop dreaming, you useless Omega. When you reach the right age, just get married like you're supposed to."

When he learns he's been paired with a military Alpha he's never even met, and that the wedding is next month, the young master curses furiously.

Damn it, he's had enough. Who wants to marry a stranger? Grab a bucket and run!

The next day, Lucas storms into a bar with a guitar on his back.

The punks have never seen such a pretty boy, and a chorus of lewd whistles rings out.

Lucas easily knocks the thugs to the ground with a wave of his hand. Before he can wipe the disgust from his face, the gang leader surrounds him with his men.

Lucas freezes for a moment. Looking at the gang leader's long legs, slim waist, and handsome face, he gets hungry, then immediately throws himself on the ground and pretends to be hurt, whining.

Your little thugs are so scary! A delicate Omega like me can't beat them at all! Aaaaaah!

Zhou Ji, his real marriage partner and fake gang leader: ...

You think I'll believe that?

Zhou Ji struggles out of an underground arena slick with blood, his whole body reeking of blood and violence.

He's been through true hell, and he doesn't want the radiant Lucas dragged into the darkness too. He's so beautiful. He shouldn't have to live in a city like Wright, surrounded by filth.

But the sun rising from the darkness cups his face and sings to him: No one is born to darkness. You can be your own light.

One-on-one, both are each other's first and only, ABO.

An arranged marriage to lovers story, but not quite. The author's favorite play-the-pig-to-eat-the-tiger trope: he can fight, but he's delicate.

A top-ranked ability user and young master bottom + an undercover, viciously loyal, incredibly strong top.

Theme: Keep striving and grow toward the light.
