ABO: I Refuse to Be the Rich Big Sister's Dog

[Healthy crawling · Lots of inner monologue · The ultimate "I love it now" example · A teary-eyed puppy Alpha × Gorgeous and alluring · Bewitching and seductive · Rich, scheming older Omega woman]

Late-night plea for help: I accidentally marked an Omega big shot after my second gender differentiation. What do I do?

"1l: Was it really an accident, or did you mean to do it? I can tell the difference.

2l: Give us the details of the marking.

3l: That's it? Kick me when there's more.

4l: I'll send you off with 'Tears Behind Bars.' Farewell, friend.

5l: It's been five minutes. OP, are you still okay?"

The anonymous poster, Pu Zhi, says: Technically alive, but barely. Just holding on.

*

The deed was done, so Pu Zhi decided to accept whatever punishment came and take responsibility to the end.

Who could have guessed that the next time they met, a contract would be placed right in front of her?

The Omega sitting across from her leaned back at ease and looked her straight in the eye. "I really like you."

Pu Zhi: •̆.•̑?

Omega: "I want you."

Pu Zhi: (ﾟ⊿ﾟ)ﾂ

"Don't even think about it! I would never sell myself for money..."

Omega: "Five million. One month."

Pu Zhi: Uh, but now that you mention it...

*

At first, Pu Zhi kept business and personal matters separate, declaring with righteous conviction, "I work for my money. Don't expect me to be your little caged bird!"

The beauty's eyes grew sultry. Her slender fingers hooked beneath the collar around Pu Zhi's neck. "Who said I wanted a caged bird? A little puppy will do. Come when called, and fawn all over me. Got it?"

Pu Zhi flew into a rage. "Don't even think about it! Ji Mingyu, I will never be your dog in this lifetime!"

*

Later, Pu Zhi grew tired of their relationship and resolved to break things off with Ji Mingyu.

Ji Mingyu: [One last time]

They met at a hotel. The woman emerged from the bathroom, wet hair draped over her shoulders, water droplets running down her neck and vanishing into the deep valley between her breasts. She lay on her side by the bed and beckoned Pu Zhi with a finger. "Good girl, come here."

After a bout of passion, the beauty was still catching her breath. Her voice was utterly bewitching. "Still want to break up?"

Pu Zhi: "..."

Half a month later, Pu Zhi brought up breaking up again.

Ji Mingyu: [One last time]

They met at a villa... Afterwards, the Omega raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Still want to break up?"

Pu Zhi: "..."

Six months later, Pu Zhi brought up breaking up for the nth time.

Ji Mingyu: [One last time]

One last time can mean one more time, right?

[I don't just want to be your dog. I want to be your girlfriend, too., Pu Zhi]

Short version:

A rich older woman is into me. I scoff at being her dog, but then I eat my words. I don't just want to be her dog, I want to be her girlfriend. But the rich older woman wants the body, not the heart. I'm heartbroken and want to leave, but every time she crooks a finger, she reels me right back in.

Bonus scene:

I heard Ji Mingyu's first love and unattainable crush is coming back.

Her friend laughed without mercy. "Oh wow, Xiao Zhi, you're about to lose her favor."

Pu Zhi protested. "Nonsense! Do you know who I am? Five foot nine, college athlete, top-tier Alpha!"

Her friend: "But she's her first love, her unattainable crush."

Pu Zhi stubbornly retorted, "I've got a six-pack, too!"

Her friend: "Her first~ love~ and unattainable~ crush~"

Pu Zhi's lips trembled. "I... I do what I'm told, I come whenever she calls, and I'm good in bed!"

Her friend: "Her first, unattainable, crush~"

Pu Zhi: "..."

Pu Zhi completely broke down and sprinted to Ji Mingyu's building in the middle of the night, then barged right in.

"Ji Mingyu, you said before that you liked my face and my six-pack... hic... Was that true?!"

Before she could finish, her tear-prone eyes overflowed, tears rolling down one after another.

Ji Mingyu's delicate shoulder was half exposed. The red wine in her glass swayed with the hanging chair. Her eyes were hazy with drunkenness, and she teased cruelly, "It was true, but that was in the past."

Thunderstruck, Pu Zhi fought back tears and yelled, "I knew it! Ji Mingyu, you really are fickle!"

"Who says otherwise?" The woman stretched out an elegant arm, her fingertip brushing the reddened corner of Pu Zhi's eye. "But you look so pitiful now. I like you even more."

"Then are you choosing me, or... hic, her?"

The woman tipped back her head, drained her glass, and sealed Pu Zhi's lips with a kiss.

Note: Ji Mingyu has had a girlfriend before. Please read with caution if this bothers you.

Coming next: The Seventh Year of Being Taken by Force

Blurb:

In the seventh year of being taken by force by Du Ruoheng, Shunhua's ideals have crumbled, her friends and family have drifted away, and she's grown tired of a life spent in hiding. She is utterly exhausted.

She gives in to fate.

She stays quietly by Du Ruoheng's side, like a flower in a porcelain vase, blooming, withering, and finally fading away.

She thought this would make Du Ruoheng tire of her and set her free.

But she was wrong.

*

After seven years of coercion and every underhanded trick imaginable, Du Ruoheng finally got what she wanted and kept Shunhua by her side.

It should have been a happy ending, but she still wasn't satisfied.

Because Shunhua wouldn't smile at her, wouldn't kiss or hug her of her own accord, and certainly wouldn't whisper sweet words to her.

Shunhua didn't love her, and had never intended to be with her sincerely.

Like a hibiscus, blooming at dawn and wilting at dusk, forever fresh and full of life, yet never belonging to her.

But it didn't matter. As long as she could keep Shunhua by her side, she had all the patience and means she needed.

*

At their seventh anniversary celebration, their friends gathered, but Shunhua, one of the two people being celebrated, arrived late.

After several rounds of drinks, with the mood at its peak, Du Ruoheng pulled out a diamond ring and knelt on one knee, gazing at her with deep affection.

Amid a chorus of cheers and teasing, Shunhua looked coldly at the woman kneeling before her and said nothing.

As expected, the party ended on a sour note. Du Ruoheng went mad and, seething with rage, pulled Shunhua against her.

Shunhua's fragile neck bent backward in an extreme arc.

As the world spun upside down, a strange woman entered her field of vision. The look in her eyes was exactly like Du Ruoheng's when they had first met.

Fervent and intense, determined to have her.

*

"Hello, I'm Du Ruoheng's aunt."

"Leave her and be with me. I'll take care of everything for you."

The woman said this when they met for the second time.

Shunhua smiled, hesitated for only a moment, then leaned close to her ear and said, "All right."

Bonus scene:

A vintage castle, solemn and romantic. A pure white wedding dress trailed across an ivory satin carpet.

A priest in black robes stood between them and spoke gravely. "Do you promise to love and cherish one another, in wealth and poverty, in sickness and in health, and never to leave or forsake each other?"

Du Ruoheng looked at the person beside her and nodded solemnly. "I do."

Shunhua looked at her, too, and said nothing. Only when the priest had asked for the third time did she slowly open her lips:

"I do not."
