An Unconventional Divorce

A divorce-and-reconciliation story where the Alpha is strong and the Omega even stronger. An ABO setting of my own, with pheromones as the only feature. The divorce has its reasons, and the Alpha has never been a scumbag. Slow-paced at first, with reality and flashbacks interwoven. Readers who don’t enjoy a slower pace can skip the flashbacks. Everyone says Rao Xinxia is the country’s most prestigious live-in Alpha: she leveraged her wife’s family connections and influence to benefit from government policies and become a new-generation financial magnate. But Bei Ruan has never listened to that sour grape talk. It’s just a bunch of jealous gossips. So again and again, she ignored the rumors about Rao Xinxia and the rising star, overlooked her wife’s wandering attention during their intimate moments, and firmly rejected the “tattling” of close friends... Until, just before their tenth wedding anniversary, Rao Xinxia personally asked her for a divorce. She told Rao Xinxia to take some time to cool off, then proposed a “divorce vacation” lasting ten days. Rao Xinxia agreed, forcing ten days off into her packed schedule for a major project. Of course, she was still working overtime right up until she boarded the plane to Country S. The vacation passed with Rao Xinxia working overtime, skiing, drinking, and resisting Bei Ruan’s advances. They were deeply marked partners, and when they were alone together, their passion flared. Their pheromones simply wouldn’t obey. But Rao Xinxia actually managed to struggle out of bed, push her out of the master bedroom, and lock the door behind her. As Rao Xinxia grew ever colder and more resistant, Bei Ruan’s anxiety finally exceeded the limits of her reason. Thank goodness, an avalanche came. After Rao Xinxia was rescued, she remained unconscious for days before finally waking up. The bad news: she hadn’t lost her memory. The good news: a full examination revealed severe damage to her glands, resulting in serious glandular dysfunction. In plain language: Rao Xinxia might be unable to break their deep bond and could become even more dependent on her current marked partner. President Rao quickly contacted a top institution for another round of tests. After five rounds, she had no choice but to accept the facts. Bei Ruan had thought the divorce might finally change things. She never expected the person she had known since childhood to make an outrageous demand in a voice so unfamiliar: “We’re getting divorced, but we can be bedmates.” Bei Ruan laughed in disbelief. Who do you think you are? Which one of us needs the other more now? And yet... She really couldn’t bear to let Rao Xinxia go. Rao Xinxia and Bei Ruan, a world-class musician known as the goddess of the piano, really did get divorced. They even got the official papers. And Rao Xinxia promptly began openly spending all her time with Fu Yunian, a rising star. They were even photographed checking into the same hotel! Industry insiders said President Rao had grown too big for her boots, daring to spread her wings while her mother-in-law was still in power. To everyone’s surprise, the Bei family made no move. As rumors and speculation swirled, Fu Yunian timidly asked from inside the hotel suite, “Um... Can I go now?” Bei Ruan turned around on the bed, lifted the long hair scattered across her chest, and smiled with red lips. “Sorry, Miss Fu. I’m afraid I’ll have to ask you to wait outside a little longer.” She leaned down to kiss the Alpha beneath her, who was in the throes of heat, and asked meaningfully, “We still have to go out with President Rao later. Don’t we, darling?” ---- [Now updating a new novel set in the world of women’s professional tennis] Couple: A girlfriend who wears the mask of a strict, cold coach but fusses over everything like a mom x a tsundere young lady who cries easily and is timid about everything except tennis Set in women’s professional tennis, with an original ABO setting featuring pheromones only. As the only Omega player in women’s tennis to win a Grand Slam, Su Yang is a media darling, a favorite of brands, and the combined ideal of her fans’ first love and the one who got away. After a shock defeat in the US Open final, her usually overbearing mother brings back the world’s former number-one women’s player, now the best coach in tennis. Watching her elegant, cool-faced ex from the sidelines, Su Yang grits her teeth and suppresses her glands’ instinctive reaction. Her voice is cold, her tone mocking: “Xin Xian, how dare you show your face in front of me?” Su Yang and her coach have two contracts: On the court, she has to obey. Xin Xian has the right to decide her training plan, tournament schedule, and even her commercial activities and team members. But in bed, the Alpha has to obey her. In the positions she likes, wherever she wants. She can only touch and kiss her, and bite the Omega’s vulnerable glands to leave the most possessive mark, when Su Yang gives her permission... But Su Yang should have known: Xin Xian’s personality is just like her playing style: forceful and sharp, with a desire for complete control and dominance. During their first heat after becoming deeply bonded, on the hotel bed, the Alpha fought to suppress her instincts amid pheromones that nearly made her glands collapse. Leaning close to the Omega’s ear, she spoke gently: “Yangyang, beg me. Tell me you want me, and that you belong only to me.” The Omega’s eyes reddened as she trembled and clutched her hand. Overcome by a heat that grew harder to bear, she gave in through her tears: “Xin Xian... Take me. Mark me.” “I belong only to you.” From physical attraction to soulmates, romance and plot move forward together, with a relationship rekindled as the women’s tennis star rises to the top! Their breakup had its reasons. No scumbags, no scumbags, no scumbags. An ABO setting with mountains of headcanon, no extras, pheromones only. The tennis setting is explained as the story goes, so no prior knowledge is needed. Theme: Pursuing an independent life
