CHAPTERS
“Tap, tap, tap…” Qin Yan sat on the sofa, drenched. The room was dark, with only a faint trace of light from outside the window. He vaguely heard a sound—perhaps water dripping from his pant leg onto the floor. He stared at the television. Inside the screen, a dark, indistinct figure was staring back at him in a daze. He no longer seemed to recognize who that was. Strands of wet hair clung to his face. His pale skin looked as if it had been soaked in cold water for a long time. His…- 132.6 K • Completed
“How did you know…?” “You wrote it in your cover letter yourself. Ah, or did you say you’re not scared anymore now? Image training?” The man’s fingertip touched Hakyung’s resume. Now that he mentioned it, he remembered writing something about “the greatest crisis in life and how I overcame it.” His greatest crisis was his fear of seawater, and to overcome it, he had been doing image training regularly. Thanks to that, his fear had supposedly diminished a lot. …That’s…- 210.6 K • Completed
- The man ahead climbed the steps two or three at a time, as if to flaunt his long legs. Hakyung, whose legs were of average length, panted as he hurried to follow. Thankfully, the man stopped on the second floor. The office had a clean white tone all the way to the doorknob. Hakyung had only seen places like this on TV; it was his first time seeing one in real life. His eyes darted everywhere, busy trying to take in the new surroundings. The man said nothing and headed to another door deeper inside.…

- Hakyung darted beneath the crystal-clear water, so transparent that even the tiniest grains of sand were visible. His smooth arms and legs moved as naturally as a fish’s, fluid and precise. With a large basket tucked under one arm, he scanned his surroundings before settling into a spot and began digging into the ground. As he stirred the sand and broad leaves, mud and mud shrimp rushed in through the now-cloudy water as he moved the basket. Sniffling from the cold that pierced to his teeth,…

- “…Animals, you say?” Many omegas were treated as mere tools for producing superior offspring. They were forced into heat with drugs. There was no respect for the humanity of omegas in such acts. They were handled like broodmares—treated like animals. Aeryl, blessed with noble blood, had been treated well, but other omegas still faced harsh lives even now. “How could you say something so degrading…? There’s nothing wrong with omegas. The problem lies with those who treat them like…

- The Grand Duke’s gaze instantly turned sharp. Ah… this was exactly why Aeryl hadn’t wanted to ask. “You’re not asking out of personal curiosity, I assume.” “Of course not! I already know everything I need to know!” Aeryl replied firmly. “Then why ask something like that?” “I wanted to explain the reproductive functions of Alphas to Your Grace. I needed to know how much you already understood in order to explain properly…” “…Are you trying to give me sex…

- “By the way, Your Grace, what brings you to me…?” Aeryl took a sharp breath and whispered, “Are you feeling unwell?” “No. I’m fine.” “That’s a relief.” “I just had a strange feeling. But you look fine, so that’s enough.” With that, the Grand Duke turned and went back to his place. ‘A strange feeling?’ It seemed his pheromones had leaked out when his emotions suddenly surged. The Grand Duke must’ve sensed it and come over. Aeryl hadn’t expected him…

- Even Aeryl, who was deliberately ignoring him, was having a miserable time. Mason, oblivious to the situation, was on the verge of fainting. “Ah, it’s not even assembly time yet. Is my outfit not in order? What did I do wrong this time? I didn’t forget to check my weapon, and I ate just the right amount. Ah! I couldn’t be bothered, so I didn’t change my underclothes—could that be it? But how would he even know?!” “……” Then suddenly, the pheromones cut off…

Hancanera, even now, is reclining sideways in the his antechamber, savoring my misery. The bird that had once been caged underground flew away, but even what the bird believed to be freedom was, in truth, just a larger cage. The wings that beat so powerfully were artificial—wings Hancanera had given him, and wings he could snap at any time with the flick of a finger. How many days had Hancanera waited, amused, eager to reveal that truth to the bird? “You’ve finally earned recognition from…- 183.7 K • Completed
- Innis flinched slightly, but she didn’t stop talking. “I like white bread. The honey soaks right into the cut sides.” “Wow. Then thick slices would be best.” As her words grew a little slower, Aeryl checked the wound at the same time. ‘It’s opened up. Doesn’t look like it needs stitches, though.’ Luckily, the chilly weather had kept it from getting infected. Disinfection and some ointment would be enough. Aeryl quickly disinfected the area, applied the medicine, and wrapped…
