The Contested Defective Omega

Xie Xiyan is handsome, comes from a good family, and has a gentle personality. Unfortunately, his gland was defective from birth, making him an Omega who can't be marked or smell pheromones. But his heats grow more intense each time.

Everyone says no Alpha would want an Omega who can't be marked, but Xie Xiyan has never lacked admirers. One of them is his childhood friend, who grew up with him. Besides, Xie Xiyan has had an unseen fiance since he was little.

His childhood friend is very clingy with him. Although he's a cool, aloof guy around other people, he's like a different person with Xie Xiyan. He's always trying to hold his hand, squeeze his fingers, and find other little ways to touch him.

After they came of age, they grew increasingly curious about certain things, and over one summer break, they did everything they should and shouldn't have done.

Xie Xiyan can't smell pheromones, so he struts around every day with his childhood friend's pheromones on him, unaware that he's already given away their relationship, which he thought he'd hidden so well.

The Xie family planned to call off the childhood engagement they'd promised verbally years ago, but the other party flat-out refused.

Later, while traveling abroad, Xie Xiyan was unexpectedly sent into heat on a chaotic street, and his suppressants had mysteriously gone missing. In the moment of crisis, he stopped a man near the hotel who looked good to him.

He wanted the man to take him to a hospital, but the heat left him unable to get out a complete sentence. All he remembered was the man carrying him to a hotel room.

Realizing that something bad was about to happen, he struggled with all his might. Then he looked up, saw the man's familiar face, and slowly stopped struggling.

The man before him was the fiance he'd only ever seen in photographs.

The other man stroked his face and chuckled. "I was just about to go back home and find you so we could get married. Why'd you come to me yourself?"

He closed his eyes, wrapped his arms around his fiance's neck, and kissed him.

Xie Xiyan came to his senses five days later. The gland at the back of his neck was nearly bitten to pieces.

He turned on his phone, which he'd powered off, and found nothing but missed calls and WeChat messages from his childhood friend.

Another call came in. He answered, and heard his childhood friend's gloomy voice on the other end: "Open the door. I'm outside."

At that moment, Xie Xiyan wished more than anything that he could pass out.

* The top is completely faithful in both body and heart. The fiance appears officially a little later, though not much later. He's been watching the bottom from the shadows from the beginning, and sometimes does some stalker-like things while the bottom is asleep. Proceed with caution if that's not your thing!
