Was he lying to reassure me? In the past, I would have believed whatever Jung Pureum said, but now that he had become so cunning, I couldn't trust him easily. "Really? I'm going to ask Jung Saebom, you know." —It's true... It was a little difficult to control at first, but it's fine now. I was a bit curious about how it had gotten better. I switched the call to speakerphone and sent a series of messages to Jung Saebom, asking if it was true that Jung Pureum was okay. Jung Saebom replied with…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
I let my mom’s words, as she went on like a dreamer about the charms of a chaebol alpha male lead, go in one ear and out the other. My mom had always been like this. She got excited about a prince on a white horse and was enthusiastic about Cinderella stories. The fact that I have the kind of sensibility to cry my eyes out watching traditional Korean melodramas is about 80 percent my mom’s fault. Among the reasons why my grandfather and my parents can’t live together, there must surely be the…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
There was no time to be down. While I was doing this, hyung was surely being tormented at his family home. Jung Pureum had never been to Moon Yeonghwa’s “family home” in person. However, he knew well that it was a den of demons, a place that turned people into zombies, and a never-ending source of nagging. Perhaps because of how much of a hellscape it was, Moon Yeonghwa’s replies on the messenger kept getting slower. It didn’t feel like he was ignoring the messenger while having…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
At the same time, Jung Pureum was sitting in the student union building with a gloomy face. A national athlete, what’s so great about that, to tear apart the relationship between me and hyung like this… Of course, being selected as a national swimmer was a very important matter. Swimming was not only Jung Pureum’s career path but also suited his aptitude, and to do it for a long time, a stable athletic career was essential. However, separate from knowing that, Jung Pureum was too…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
I think it's time to talk about my family again. My family is from a royal bloodline of oriental medical doctors. My grandfather is an oriental medical doctor, my mother is an oriental medical doctor, my father is an oriental medical doctor... my whole family consists of oriental medical doctors. "Son, it's been a while, hasn't it?" "Mom!" My mom had come to the bus terminal to pick me up. It was a huge relief. The buses in this neighborhood, unlike in Seoul, run on an hourly schedule. I rushed…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
Both Jung Pureum and I were too accustomed to resignation, each in our own way. The only difference would be that I get angry even after resigning myself to something, and Jung Pureum doesn't. Jung Pureum was good at enduring everything. He would just laugh it off even when treated unfairly, and chuckle cheerfully even when someone asked why a beta was swimming. Unless I, who couldn't stand to watch, made a scene, he never got angry, as if he were the reincarnation of Buddha. So, it was necessary for…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
After my conversation with the woman from next door, I agonized over it again and again. I had my own work to do, and I couldn’t just neglect my clinic solely for Jung Pureum’s sake. However, no matter how much I thought about it, it seemed I was the one who had to yield. I was the one who turned Jung Pureum into an alpha, I was the one who made him fall out of favor with the coach, and I was the cause of him getting banned from the selection match… At this point, I am the root of all evil,…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
Should I just say I'm out of my mind because of my heat cycle and we can talk later? Moon Yeonghwa racked his brain as hard as he could to get out of the situation. But perhaps he had used up all his intelligence on college entrance exams and graduation, because no suitable solution came to mind. “You knew the physical education department is a den of alphas.” “No, I was... I was just going to look around a little and leave. I was also worried about who the guys bothering you…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
Even while his insides were being stirred up, Moon Yeonghwa was preoccupied with groping Jung Pureum’s chest. It was more like he had found a way to cope, as he felt he would make strange noises if he didn't turn his attention elsewhere. With a trembling hand, he fumbled all over Jung Pureum's body. Jung Pureum didn't stop Moon Yeonghwa, who was kneading his body as if it were clay. For him, it was a relief that at least this aspect of him appealed to Moon Yeonghwa. My physical appearance seems to…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
Moon Yeonghwa began to groan in his unconscious state. It seemed he had held up well, even to the point of getting a nosebleed, before Jung Pureum arrived. But this time too, he had been directly doused with alpha pheromones that were incompatible with the herbal medicine he often took to suppress his heat cycle. A Western doctor would have been appalled to see his current condition. While Moon Yeonghwa would just perform acupuncture on his own body, muttering something about yin, yang, and the five…- 199.5 K • Ongoing
