Blurb:
[He was my sworn enemy. We used to be evenly matched, each other's equal.]
[Later... we got together.]
1. My annoying adopted brother falls on hard times
[Alpha He Feiyang x Beta Shen Zhishu]
He Feiyang was born an Alpha. He had talent, family background, and good looks.
Having an advantage was pretty great at first, but it got boring after a while.
So, after easily surpassing his peers, He Feiyang began to coast through life.
When He Feiyang was fifteen, his dad finally couldn't take it anymore.
What a real father. As if he believed in the catfish effect, he went off to some remote mountain village and dug up an unbelievably hard-working prodigy for He Feiyang: the He family's new adopted son, Shen Zhishu.
He was a Beta, but... he was ridiculously driven.
He Feiyang was so furious he nearly fell over. Whenever he saw Shen Zhishu's cool, sharp features, he felt aggrieved.
Later, they took over the company, and He Feiyang finally got his act together. He fought Shen Zhishu tooth and nail, and at last! Shen Zhishu slipped up and got framed, landing in jail!
He Feiyang was thrilled. He drove over in his flashy Ferrari just to show off.
Then he saw Shen Zhishu through the car window, looking miserable and being taunted by a few thugs. Shen Zhishu actually started fighting them.
Shen Zhishu had fair skin, and the blood on his fists made him look even more striking.
He Feiyang thought about it. He could bully Shen Zhishu himself, but a bunch of thugs picking on Shen Zhishu was like asking for trouble with him.
So He Feiyang sauntered over, kicked open the car door, and went to give his sworn enemy a hand.
2. I heard my uncle wants to get his hands on my inheritance
[Alpha Jiang Chuan x Omega Yu Ke]
Jiang Chuan's parents died in a car accident, leaving behind the sprawling Jiang family business and eleven-year-old Jiang Chuan.
Yu Ke, a director of the Jiang Group and an old friend of Jiang Chuan's father, stepped in to fend off the vultures and took on the responsibility of caring for Jiang Chuan.
Yu Ke was an Omega who didn't seem like an Omega.
Fragile and lovable were traits associated with Omegas, but Yu Ke was ruthless and calculating. He was tall, with broad shoulders and long legs, practically like an Alpha.
His parents' subordinates, the friends around him, and all the rumors told Jiang Chuan that Yu Ke was only after his inheritance.
Jiang Chuan took it to heart, but not entirely.
On Jiang Chuan's eighteenth birthday, Yu Ke left a business engagement to celebrate with him and asked what he wanted as a gift.
Jiang Chuan said he wanted the Patek Philippe on his uncle's wrist.
Yu Ke was taken aback, then smiled helplessly. "That's all you want? It's just an old watch."
That night, with the "old watch" on his wrist, Jiang Chuan held his uncle, who was feverish and delirious because of his heat.
Beneath the cold, immaculate suit lay burning flesh and a vulnerable, earnest heart.
As passion clouded their minds, the Alpha kissed the sweat on Yu Ke's forehead and whispered,
"Can I mark you, Uncle?"
3. A gloomy, ghostlike guy won't leave me alone
[Alpha He Zhisi x Alpha Yin Buyu]
Everyone in their circle said that Young Master He and the crazy illegitimate son of the Yin family were mortal enemies.
The Yin family was an old and powerful clan with high status and considerable influence. By this generation, they had no legitimate heir, so they had finally held their noses and acknowledged the illegitimate son they didn't like. Yin Buyu's jet-black hair and narrow eyes made him look like a sinister snake.
Young Master He had a good temper in public. Even when someone stole a car he liked or took a project he wanted, he'd just smile. After gaining control over company decisions, he planned to form an alliance with the Yang family through marriage, joining forces to grow stronger.
But the day after the press conference, Young Master He got into a car accident. The car was crushed flat, and though he survived, he was kidnapped and taken to a basement.
There were only two people in the basement: He Zhisi and Yin Buyu.
He Zhisi soon discovered that the mastermind, Yin Buyu, was seriously ill in the head. He suffered from extreme insomnia and mood swings, smashed things, and would stab himself if He Zhisi failed to soothe him.
Trapped in that tiny space, Young Master He had no choice but to play by the madman's rules, pretending to be in love with him. At last, he managed to calm the damned lunatic down.
But detectives these days were just too dedicated. They found He Zhisi in no time.
4. Who knew a fight would turn into love?
[Alpha Xie Zhuo x Beta Huo Man]
Xie Zhuo's Alpha traits had been unusually strong since childhood, and he'd been fighting constantly ever since middle school.
The Xie family had no other choice. They sent their pampered but ridiculously formidable young master to the countryside.
The moment Xie Zhuo arrived at Xicheng School, it was like hot water poured into a pan of hot oil. Everything instantly boiled over.
There were plenty of troublemakers at Xicheng School, with their own cliques and a pretty chaotic atmosphere. Xie Zhuo often got into fights with Huo Man.
Huo Man was all muscle, with skin as dark as the local soil. He was wild and powerful, with the raw, untamed aggression of the earth itself.
They could always fight to a draw, then do it all over again next time.
Xie Zhuo already had the advantage of being an Alpha, and Alphas naturally drew attention. He had a striking, aggressively handsome face, and wore his air of wealth and his roguishness equally well.
The love letters he received came down like snow, in stacks upon stacks.
Xie Zhuo scoffed at romance. He thought real men didn't mess around with that lovey-dovey stuff. He never said it out loud, but he actually admired Huo Man a little. He thought Huo Man was cool, a real man.
But he never imagined that even Huo Man, a "real man," would fall for his charms. On graduation day, Huo Man confessed to Xie Zhuo.
Xie Zhuo: conflicted.
5. After cutting ties with my sworn enemy, I slept with him
[Alpha You Yu x Omega-disguised-as-Alpha Gu Queting]
You Yu was the heir to the You family. He was petty and vengeful, and anyone who crossed him got a thorough dressing-down, with one exception: Gu Queting.
Gu Queting used to be You Yu's closest friend.
But in their junior year of college, that bastard Gu Queting stole the Omega You Yu had set his sights on.
Damn it! Anyone who betrayed a brother's trust deserves to swallow ten thousand needles! I treated you like a brother, and you turned my life into a field of green grass???
You Yu couldn't win an argument with Gu Queting, so he was furious and went abroad. How does the old saying go? Two tigers can't share one mountain. You Yu couldn't stay there anymore!
Two years later, You Yu returned to China after hearing two things:
1. Gu Queting had been in a car accident. His parents were both dead, and his right leg had been amputated.
2. The fact that Gu Queting had been hiding his Omega identity had finally come to light.
Now his sworn enemy had fallen on hard times, and You Yu was ready to kick him while he was down.
But You Yu couldn't have picked a worse time. Gu Queting was in heat, and the moment You Yu opened the door, the scent of his pheromones made his head spin.
...Though getting into bed together was like getting into a fight, You Yu accidentally gave Gu Queting a deep mark.
You Yu: I'm screwed. I've really become the kind of scumbag who takes advantage of someone when they're down.
