Tang Mianmian is the Tang family's most treasured young son. He's handsome and sweet, but unfortunately, he's been frail since childhood. Although he is an Omega, his gland is defective.
It's an incurable condition, and doctors have even declared that he won't live past twenty.
His family is worried sick. When they hear that he can be treated with the pheromones of a high-ranking Alpha, they immediately take Tang Mianmian to find a match.
To their surprise, his match is Gu Jin, the famously brutal Alpha who despises Omegas!
Gu Jin is a financial powerhouse in City X and the head of Hengda Group. He's rich, handsome, and comes from one of the most powerful families around.
After an Omega in heat nearly set him up at a banquet, he began avoiding them. He likes Betas and despises Omegas.
Using a political marriage as an excuse, Tang Mianmian is sent to the Gu family, only to nearly be thrown out along with his luggage.
At the Gu residence's front gate, the pitiful little Omega grabs Gu Jin and clings to him like a piece of soft candy, his eyes brimming with tears. "Uncle Gu, please take pity on me! Wuwuwu, if you don't help me, I'm really going to die!"
And so, after thirty-two years of bachelorhood, Gu Jin suddenly finds himself with a wife by contract.
The contract-married couple, living under the same roof, are forced to hug every night before bed. The man is always composed, holding the child in his arms without a trace of desire.
Not quite.
When the naive little Omega looks up, Gu Jin sees his own out-of-control reflection in Tang Mianmian's eyes.
Everyone knows that the head of the Gu family is cold and heartless, as if nothing could ever earn even a glance from him.
Everyone thinks he could never fall in love.
Including Gu Jin himself.
He plans to let the little one go once he graduates, but when he sees the soft little Omega smiling at another Alpha, the dark side of him can no longer be contained.
In the CEO's office, Gu Jin pins him against the desk, the arm around the Omega's waist taut with bulging veins. "Baby, who was that Alpha talking to you today?"
Let him go? That's no longer an option :)
[Bonus Scene]
Tang Mianmian luxuriates in the pheromones of a high-ranking Alpha, feeling so relaxed and carefree that he has never felt this good before.
But lately, Tang Mianmian has started to feel that something is off.
When he's eating a little cake, Mr. Gu watches him.
Mr. Gu must be hungry. Here, you can have my cake.
When he's lounging on the sofa watching TV, Mr. Gu watches him.
Does Mr. Gu want to watch TV too? So Tang Mianmian scoots over, offering Mr. Gu the warm spot he'd been sitting in, and sits shoulder to shoulder with him.
When they're hugging, Mr. Gu still watches him.
Mr. Gu looks so scary. Is he going to kick me out again? QAQ
