Due to a mistake by the municipal office worker, a wrong marriage registration was filed.... more>>

And it was with our company’s head office director.

“Ah! Get me divorced!”

But to get divorced, according to the law, you need to go through a Alpha-Omega Special Divorce Contemplation System.

Plus, you have to go through counseling, travel together, and even keep a journal of your spouse’s observations.

Do you think I can’t handle a divorce like that? I will definitely succeed in this divorce.

Just endure the six-month waiting period, reclaim the single title, and then coolly turn away…

“Marry me.”

“What? We’re already married. No, aside from that, isn’t this sequence wrong…?!”

“Then, let’s start from dating.”

No, why is this alpha getting sweeter as he goes…?!

Even if it hurts my pride for a moment, I can’t stand seeing Seo Taecheon going to another omega.

Oh, I don’t know.

“I love you! Honey, darling!”

He desperately avoids him to maintain his present life.

Kang Ha-Joon continues to be interested in him, who was not seen even in the original work.

“I’ll do everything you want, so give me three months.”

On the best terms to pay off the remaining debt.

Eventually, Sung Eun-Yul closed his eyes and accepted Kang Ha-Joon’s offer…….

“I’m looking forward to tomorrow.”

Lu Xingci’s family situation is better than his, he is taller than him and plays basketball better than him. Needless to say, his grades are a whole tier above Duan Jiayan’s. Even his friends can’t help but occasionally praise Lu Xingci.

Most importantly, every girl that Duan Jiayan has set his sights on, all admitted that they have liked Lu Xingci for a few years already.

Since then, Duan Jiayan has never thought well of Lu Xingci, till the day he received his new medical report. He is a late-blooming Omega, and because he became an Omega this late, it came with dire consequences. Now Alphas will feel the need to beat up other people whenever they come near Duan Jiayan. He himself is now allergic to every Alpha’s pheromone, except Lu Xingci’s.

One night during a self-study session, Duan Jiayan became extremely uncomfortable and ended up asking Lu Xingci to bite him and leave a temporary mark.

After finishing the bite, Lu Xingci asked: “We Alphas have very bad tempers, now that I’ve bitten you, are there any rewards?”

“Why don’t you…” Duan Jiayan tentatively asked: “Be a little more generous?”

“Sure,” the other party kneeled slightly and tilted down his head, exposing his white neck: “Then you’ve to also bite back. Once you do, I won’t make a fuss anymore.”

The Jiang and the Sui Empires are sworn enemies. Both sides have been fighting back and forth for decades, each trying to press the other to death by the Yellow River.... more>>

In order to achieve this goal, the Sui Empire dispatched the Lone Star, Crown Prince Sui Heng, who’s known for his cold-blooded killing methods, straight to attack the capital city of Jiang.

The Jiang Empire has sent their Crown Prince Jiang Yun, whose reputation for virtue has spread throughout the world and who has recruited countless famous scholars, to lead his trusted aides to secretly infiltrate the enemy’s rear and interfere with their plans.

Both sides were very pleased with their results.

It turned out there was a little accident when they retreated.

Jiang Yun was assassinated by his subordinates, rolled down the cliff, and picked up by Sui Heng, who was also schemed by others.

In order to cure the poison, the two were forced to have s*x……

Afterwards, looking at that snow-white and stunning face, Sui Heng, who had always rejected having s*xual interc**rse with men and women had difficulty controlling his pounding heart.

He took this little beauty that he accidentally picked up back and raise him as a Wai Shi in the other residence.

Jiang Yun thought that it was impossible to escape, so he played along and pretended to have amnesia. While dutifully serving the Great Lone Star as a Wai Shi, he spied on the enemy’s information.

As a result, he hasn’t spied out much information yet, but his belly is getting bigger day by day.

Jiang Yun: Ah, ah, ah, may I ask if it’s still possible to run away now?

**

His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, whom the Jiang Empire has been looking forward to day and night, has finally returned to his home country.

Not only did he come back, but he also brought a little oil bottle along as well.

No one knows who the child’s father is, and no one dares to ask either.

Only Jiang Yun saw him as a beautiful little bunny who’s capable of finishing three bowls of rice per meal and is a little brat that was born with divine power.

He is worried to death.

The child looks too much like his father, what should I do?

Is it still possible to strangle him to death now?

The child who’s capable of eating: Shivering

**

Upon learning that his favorite concubine may have fled to the Jiang Empire, Sui Heng was furious and once again joined forces with other kingdoms to attack the Jiang Empire.

The one who came to meet him head-on was the mysterious Crown Prince of the Jiang Empire, whose reputation was famous all over the world and who was known as the world’s first beauty.

Sui Heng sneered and ordered: Those who can take Jiang Yun’s head later will be rewarded with ten thousand gold and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Houses.

The two sides armies were at war, and they saw a youth in a green shirt and jade belt appear gracefully in front of the formation, with a nine-point resemblance to the fleeing Wai Shi.

Sui Heng was confused and shouted, “Anyone who dares to shoot an arrow, Gu will take your dog’s life!”

He does not hesitate to take on rough tasks for the sake of the older brother who accepted him into the group, but when he is turned into a puppy due to an injury from an attack, he is picked up by Yoon Chi-young.

“What’s with this scruffy puppy?”

‘Let go… you bastard!’

Suddenly, Gyeon Heeseong becomes Yoon Chi-young’s puppy, known as the man-eating wolf.

“The pheromones are almost undetectable. It’s just a puppy.”

‘Quack.’

However, even the doctor judges Heeseong as a mere puppy, so Heeseong decides to deceive Yoon Chi-young by pretending to be a puppy and then escape.

But Yoon Chi-young is a lunatic who never lets the puppy out of his arms.

“I even gave you a treat… Can’t you give me just one kiss?”

‘Sigh…’

Although Heeseong becomes the recipient of affection and care from Yoon Chi-young, whom he fears, their cohabitation is precarious.

Woof! Woof!

“What’s that? You like me so much? Want to go home quickly?”

Yoon Chi-young, petting the puppy, asked Ji Yeong-bae, a subordinate of the canine tribe. Despite continuously being bitten by the puppy, he always thought romantically. And Ji Yeong-bae always responded honestly.

“Yes, sir… He’s saying, ‘You bastard.’”

Tae-seo, a villain who tormented the main character in an Omega verse novel, suddenly finds himself reincarnated into that very antagonist role. What’s worse, he reincarnates just as he’s about to administer a heat-inducing drug to the main character!... more>>

Tae-seo, the protagonist of the original story, thwarts Seo Da-rae’s plan to administer the drug and, in order to avoid triggering a dead flag, casually drinks the inducer. Reincarnated not as an Omega but as a Beta, Tae-seo expects nothing out of the ordinary to happen.

“Well, causing a cycle right here is quite audacious. Or are you asking just anyone to pick you up?”

Unfortunately, due to side effects, Tae-seo manifests as an Omega and experiences the heat cycle. By chance, he ends up sharing a bed with a man named Kang Se-heon.

“Don’t expect me to take responsibility later. I have no intention of being manipulated by a bloodthirsty person like you.”

“I don’t have any intention of asking you to take responsibility either.”

Initially unaware of his relatively minor role in the original story, Tae-seo is surprised to learn that Kang Se-heon happens to be the main character’s cousin. As Se-heon starts approaching Tae-seo in a suspicious manner and even other characters from the original story oddly gravitate towards him, Tae-seo’s confusion deepens.

“Yoon Tae-seo, you should choose me, even if it’s for the sake of the child.”

With an intent of retaliation, Kwon Taejung who happened to cause an embarrassing accident, was suddenly relieved of all his duties and was fired from the company. Surrendering to the cruelty of his father, he was banished to the troublesome and ruined Daramdong slum, which was soon to be demolished by the company.... more>>

The Daramdong slum was famous for being broadcasted in a program as, “The Nightmare of Slums”. However, the once persistent screeches of the public against the demolition had died down, only recently the demolishing plans were started again.

Only 3 months were left until the demolition and Kwon Taejung could only return the company after the said 3 months, if he could complete a “Safe Demolition” of the slum without any further accidents. But of that “Safe Demolition” there was only one protester and that was the youngest resident of the slum, Yigyeom.

“I am the recent resident of the red container.”

“…Container?”

“Yes, a red one. It’s a total landmark of the slum.”

The broadcasting team of the program, “The nightmare of slums” requested an interview from Yigyeom for a follow-up report. So that there were no arising issues regarding the demolition of Daramdong, Kwon Taejung thought to approach Yigyeom to stop the broadcast.

Yigyeom who had been suffering under the demolition management of the slum for long, misunderstood Kwon Taejung as the new thug like service chief and Kwon Taejung didn’t correct his misunderstanding. After all, the Daramdong was planned to be demolished in 3 months anyway and there would be no chances to meet Yigyeom after that, so it was better to let him consider him as a thug until then, Kwon Taejung thought.

But Kwon Taejung could smell the somewhat sweetish peach smell Yigyeom emitted but it was unusual for a beta, which Kwon Taejung assumed Yigyeom was. But once he was aware of the fact, Yigyeom was an omega, his interest towards him slowly piqued. Forgetting that his initial plan was to obstruct the broadcast, he was steadily being absorbed in the strange feeling he felt towards Yigyeom. Yigyeom was well-behaved and diligent and often felt feverish in response to Kwon Taejung’s pheromones, and for those reasons, Kwon Taejung couldn’t help but follow Yigyeom with his eyes.

“…I don’t like thugs, you know.”

“Well, I don’t like kids either.”

Even though Yigyeom seemed meek, he was strongly confident and intuitive and wasn’t to be pushed around. There would be times when Kwon Taejung would distract him off his tracks, as childish as it was, but whenever there would be times where Yigyeom would wither, Kwon Taejung would stay by his side and his once closed heart would start to open. As the strange feelings grew towards each other, they became close without knowing they had different objectives.

…But why is the male lead coming straight for me instead of the female lead?”

My rating: 3.6

For all the right reasons, this novel is a legitimate "makjang" drama. It lives up to the plot tropes of chaebols, adultery and birth secrets. If you make a venn diagram of the characters' relationships, it would look like the Olympics logo. The family trees are wreaths. Someone's long lost sibling is another's long lost sibling. It's dramatic enough to be messy, and ridiculous enough to be comedic. Add the transmigration ABO BL tropes and you get... a freaking festival. I liked it. <<less

I possessed the only son of the Northern Archduke. Because I’m an Omega, I must marry an Alpha to continue my family…... more>>

The first guy ran away because the Auston territory was cold, and the second guy robbed the household’s safe.

“Fwayd. Aden?” (Failed. Again?)

And every time my marriage failed, I came back. But while I said that, I noticed that these plump hands and short tongues were unusual…

“How owld I am? Thwee… Fou…” (How old am I? Three.. Four…)

Apparently, this time I returned to the age of three.

I followed my father to the Imperial Castle to pick my soon-to-be groom myself.

“Hello.”

“Uaa…”

I’ve never seen a person like this since I was born.

“What should I call you, our baby, tell me your name.” “Oh come on!”

My husband-to-be is this guy? Of course, it could change if a better man appeared.

And when I was five, I ventured out of the house alone for the first time. I met a snow leopard and brought him home…

“From now on you’re Kitty.”

It is an existence that cannot be given a name like that, but if I, Noah, gave it that name, that would be its name.

And one night, when I was sick, I met ‘an angel’.

I saw a very handsome man in my room… The next day, I woke up and the man was gone.

I keep on thinking about him, was it just a dream in the middle of the night?

The overall atmosphere of the story was pretty calm. For one, there's no real villain in this story. While some moments were frustrating, neither the main characters nor the plot dwell on it. There's even an air of innocence despite the story being set in omegaverse. In fact, it managed to dodge most of the tropes aside from the omegas being discriminated against. <<less
