After Turning from Alpha to Omega, I Married My Archenemy

An Louis Bai is the pride of the Western Magic Empire.

Born into nobility and gifted with exceptional talent, he is a rare pureblood white mage in this age.

Then one day, he inexplicably receives an order from the queen to transfer schools... and on his very first day, he gets on the wrong side of Xi Chen, the student everyone on campus is terrified to go near.

Xi Chen can't stand Bai and is always finding ways to make trouble for him.

Once, twice...

Bai can take it no longer and challenges him to a duel twice in one month.

But at the same time, he receives a shocking piece of news: "Your sister has died unexpectedly. The queen wants you to marry the heir to the empire in her place."

Bai can't believe it. "But I'm an Alpha."

"The queen wants you to become an Omega."

*

Talia Xi Chen is the crown prince, but has borne a curse since childhood. He knows he has been foretold to die one day at the hands of someone close to him.

The key to breaking the curse lies with his future marriage partner.

He accepts his fate and goes along with it, without expecting much from this destined marriage. He knows full well that all he needs is an heir carrying the other person's bloodline.

Until the day of their arranged meeting, when he holds a bouquet and puts on a gentle, refined manner to welcome the Omega he has never met.

But when the car door opens, Bai steps out.

Xi Chen is stunned. "Why is it you? You're an Omega?!"

Just half a month ago, they'd fought tooth and nail in the dueling arena. And only two days earlier, Bai had told him to get lost at school.

Standing by the car door, Bai is even more at a loss than Xi Chen. Not long ago, he was forced to undergo a secret procedure arranged by the royal family, changing him from an Alpha into an Omega.

Before this, Bai had no idea Xi Chen was his marriage partner.

And Xi Chen doesn't seem to know about his change from A to O, either.

They stare at each other. A moment later, Xi Chen tosses aside the flowers and turns to leave.

Watching him storm off, Bai thinks with near-numb resignation: Great. He's given up his talent and his dreams, and on the very first day he meets his marriage partner, he can already see that his future will be a complete disaster.

*

Six months later, Bai finds an opportunity to get out of the marriage.

Xi Chen: "No."

Xi Chen: "In your dreams."

Xi Chen: "Go ahead and try. Let's see if I don't get you pregnant first."

He threatens him with harsh words, but in private, he begs the queen to make Bai stay.

The queen: "Do you like him?"

Xi Chen: "..."

Maybe he does.

He gives in. No matter what, he's going to win Bai back.

Coming soon: The Demon Lord Only Wants to Play the Delicate Flower

↓↓↓

Wei Ling is a demon lord with extraordinary talent. At fourteen, his own father shattered his spiritual foundation and cast him down into the mortal world.

He struggled to survive through an age of turmoil, and, as one might expect, grew into a ruthless and sinister person.

Two years later, Wei Ling climbs out of a pile of corpses and returns to his father's side. He sets a trap and plays the pig to eat the tiger.

But then he meets a brother named Wei Ji.

This man is his father's adopted son, and his father describes him as: "Good-natured and pure."

Oh. Pure-hearted people are the easiest to kill.

Wei Ling acts obedient on the surface while secretly plotting ways to kill his brother.

Just then, his brother walks over, slips a piece of candy into his mouth, and asks with a bright, gentle smile if he likes it. Then he straightens Wei Ling's collar and tells him not to sit outside too long because it's windy.

Wei Ling: "..."

Munch, munch. It's pretty good.

He realizes that his brother really is pure-hearted and has taken him in as a poor little flower to care for.

Buying him snacks, adding a warm cloak to his wardrobe, feeding him nourishing herbal dishes, teaching him to read, and combing his hair... Wei Ling has never had such a good life. He can't bring himself to kill Wei Ji anymore and wants to keep his brother for himself.

He doesn't understand the ways of the mortal world. He learns a phrase, "stay together forever," but doesn't quite get it, so he goes to the street to buy books to figure it out.

He comes back with a pile of little romance booklets. They say you have to do the deed.

So Wei Ling does everything he can to sleep with his brother.

When his brother wakes up, he looks at his innocent, bewildered little brother, falls silent for a long while, then lowers his head and says guiltily, "It's my fault."

Wei Ling secretly wipes the love-inducing poison from his fingertips and smiles innocently.

What demon lord?

He's just an innocent little flower.

*

Wei Ji has never thought of Wei Ling as a bad person.

He raised his little brother with his own hands, teaching him to ride horses, shoot arrows, read, and behave properly. He nourished him from a scrawny child into someone half a head taller than himself... Even after Wei Ling slept with him, he only blamed himself for failing to raise him right.

Until one day, he sees with his own eyes his seemingly helpless little brother slaughtering his way through a sea of corpses, then sneering at the trembling people around him: "Don't stay on your knees. Don't you want to kill me? Come on."

That's when he learns his little brother is the demon lord who rules the spirit realm.

Wei Ling tricked him and deceived him. He used poison on him more than once, taking advantage of his soft heart and concern for him to lead him around by the nose.

And Wei Ji had actually fallen for him.

Now the wicked demon lord stands before him, still calling him, "Brother."

Wei Ji has nowhere to run. Thinking of the deep blood feud he bears, he tries to swallow the deception and humiliation, hoping that his little brother will soften toward him once, just as he himself once softened toward Wei Ling.

But Wei Ling has long since treasured everything about him. He tenderly cups it all in his hands, reverently wipes away the tears at the corners of his eyes, and promises, "Brother, I'll give you everything you want."
