[ABO] What Do I Do Now That I've Fallen for My Childhood Friend's Unexpected Suitor?

(I'm stockpiling chapters, so don't worry. I definitely won't abandon this!)

A love-starved, unhinged Alpha who smells like cosmos flowers + a clueless, fight-loving Omega who smells like jasmine

Ling Heng is an Alpha who has been differentiated for four years and has never had a rut. He has been single for twenty-two years, always waiting for the person who could cure him.

His childhood friend, whom he'd known since they were little, had finally blossomed after all these years and brought home a sweet, soft Omega. Ling Heng, disheartened, drowned his sorrows in alcohol and got himself blackout drunk at the Omega's welcome party.

The next morning, he woke up surrounded by the scent of jasmine.

Huh! Ling Heng was shocked. Since when was there a jasmine-scented Omega in his bed?

The jasmine pheromones came on strong, successfully triggering Ling Heng's rut. But with no experience, he abused suppressants, and his rut, which had only started the day before, abruptly stopped. Even his pheromones were gone.

Have I turned into a Beta? Ling Heng's world came crashing down.

He began instinctively avoiding the little Omega who had made him lose his pheromones. But that little Omega seemed kind of clingy. Why wasn't he sticking to the childhood friend who'd brought him here? Why was he clinging to Ling Heng instead?

Shi Zhaoran:

"Bro, mind if I take half your bed?"

"Bro, how about I bite you and leave a mark?"

"Bro, want me to keep you company through your rut?"

Ling Heng:

"..."

"Does anyone even remember that I'm an Alpha?"

Only then did Ling Heng realize that he was the ancient tree that had finally blossomed. That little jasmine flower had bloomed right on his branch, gazing at him with a dazzling allure.

But he lost that jasmine flower not long after it bloomed. Ling Heng went mad for the first time. He didn't want his glands or his pheromones. He only wanted his Omega...

A bittersweet story, with both sweetness and angst. Who gets hurt depends on how the story goes. A very innocent Alpha-Omega romance. Ling Heng has never been in love, but once he falls, he turns into a little lunatic.
