“Your indifference is driving me crazy.”... more>>

To Han Yeowon, Lee Taegang existed in a category different from all other people. There were friends, lovers, family, and then there was Lee Taegang.

However, when Lee Taegang started coming on strong as if he had unleashed something within himself, Han Yeowon was thrown into turmoil.

While he worried about losing Lee Taegang, who was more important to him than family, he was also caught in the contradictory emotion of wanting to immediately give in to his demands…

In the end, what will be the outcome of this relationship between these two people that has crossed the line? <<less

"It used to be soft and squishy, which was nice..."... more>>

"......"

"Why did you lose so much weight? It's disappointing, hyung."

His drowsy, languid voice tickled the nape of my neck. Along with that, the warmth of his body against my back made my heart flutter. His words, spoken so tenderly, stirred something inside me while simultaneously sending a chill through my solar plexus. There's no way it could be good. Something like a wobbling mass of flesh, a sight so repulsive just to look at, couldn't possibly be good.

Ha-min's face noticeably fell at the playful, yet excessive comment. His slight, nervous movements came to a stop, as if he didn't know what to do.

"......"

Sensing this, Tae-rim slowly opened his eyes. Beyond his previously closed vision, he could see Ha-min's profile, quietly staring into space. It was a rare expression for Ha-min. Deeply sunken. Tae-rim, feeling something was off, furrowed his brow and once again tightly hugged Ha-min's waist.

Soon after, Ha-min's tightly closed lips parted. His voice was quiet, almost crawling.

"Because it doesn't look good..."

"...?"

"When you're fat, you smell... it's dirty, so..."

The last syllable trembled slightly. His voice, muttering as if self-harming, and his bitter tone were unnaturally dark.

Clearly sensing something was wrong, Tae-rim tickled the back of Ha-min's neck with the tip of his nose, like a puppy. With a rustle, Ha-min's hair touched Tae-rim's nose bridge, and he could feel Tae-rim's skin nuzzling against him.

"Don't say such foolish things..."

He whispered in Ha-min's ear, comforting him.

"I like everything about you, hyung."

Affectionately.

"Even the smell of grass and milk that comes from you."

Sweetly.

"...Ever since we were young."

With such unfair words. <<less

Now, on the orders of Chairman Kwon of HK Group—who’s always held him in special regard—he finds himself forced into marrying Kwon Sayoung, a dominant Alpha he’s secretly loved for years. The problem? Sayoung is the longtime lover of Seong Yeonwoo, Hajin’s own half-brother and a dominant Omega.

“I'm only going through with the engagement. Living together... just think of it as part of the show.”

“…”

“No matter how much you’ve dreamed of marrying me, that’s as far as I’m willing to go.”

As misunderstandings pile up, the two begin a fake marriage for very different reasons. Hajin’s emotions grow more and more tangled.

Meanwhile, Sayoung’s younger brother, Kwon Sabin, begins to circle around Hajin, pulling him into even deeper confusion...

“If you’re in love with Kwon Sayoung... does that mean I can’t tell you that I like you?”

How will the twisted threads of their entangled relationships unravel? <<less
