Reincarnation for both. Uke was fotced into a marriage with a grade A trash can walking red flag alpha, Seme. Ultimately, he couldn't take it and unalived himself. Seme regretted and asked for a second chance. He went back into the past/reincarnated to before their marriage and became a super doting hubby. Uke is still walking on eggshells at the start (because of abusive childhood by his adoptive parents), but is slowly falling in love. He will remember his past life eventually (towards the end) but for now only seme knows and is making up for it.
Oh this helped me a bit in understanding so thanks XD for now I'm still confused about the exact details in the past & how the seme was a red flag like were they both forced/no choice in the marriage? Did it have a lot of misunderstandings and no communication on both side etc. also from the nightmares was he like (gang)raped
Spoiler alert
Read at your own risk.
The spoilers I am about to give u are something I have picked from here and there, i haven't read the novel so take it with grain of salt.
So this is the second life
The top remembers there past life clearly and the bottom gets some flashback in dreams
Regarding there first life.
There were lots of misunderstanding and the problem came from these said misunderstanding.
Like about bottoms heat issue and how the represent doesn't work on him, the top never knew about that info so he assumed that bottom was trying to seduce him using his heat
In this book author had made one upgrade you can say, that paired parteners can see each others memories
In first life after that incident with heat I believe there relationship gets better and the top falls in love.
But because of that son of bitch father, the bottom steals the documents and give it to that father.
He also continues to work as manager in first life so there was some issue with money laundering which the bottom ends up taking blame for, that's why in second life the top made the condition for him to leave the job ( this fact is not 100% confirmed, I made this specification based on the info I had on my hand)
And what else
Yeah regarding the brother of top, in first life top was collecting evidence on big bro cause he was scumbag who took advantage of omegas and did lots of dirty work in company. So the brothers had a confrontation at one time whether top said that he has a gift for the scumbag big brother, which was the evidence against him to put him in jail but the big bro misunderstood and thought the top was talking about the bottom.
That's scumbag couldn't contain himself and goes to top's house and unfortunately the bottom is in there, the bottom has gotten his heat so that's why he was at home and he took lots of sleeping meds so that's why when that scumbag forced him to him he could'nt do anything but he knew what was going on. The top did not take this into account and he was I belive on business trip and come backs home after three days, bottom is still on heat and loaded with sleeping pills but he still has that little conscious so he asks for divorce/or breaking of engagement and the top who can smell his brother on him gets angrey. ( Another fact i want to mention is that this time the grand father of top dies and the security info is stolen by the bottom and he was also in rut I think still doesn't excuse his behaviour) he loses his cool and forces him self on the bottom and marks him by force and they become piar bonded.
Once again if u remember I mentioned that in this world pair bonded couple share memories so yeah that how top know about the truth and misunderstanding from his side gets resolved but thats not same for our bottom.
I belive top locked up bottom in his room and maybe couple of months passes and bottom realise that he is pregnant.
Getting raped nad being pregnant along with all other shits gets too much for our sweet bottom and in the end because he cannot take it any more he kills himself using the same gun in the top's study.
After sending the scumbag brother to jail and finishing up everything the tops also kills himself
And this the first life ends
SECOND LIFE
In this life top decided to give bottom a better and good life, so that's why he stars removing obstacles from the bottoms life one by one,
(I don't have much spoiler about the current life but let's see) Bottom opens a scent shop.
Top have initially decided that once every thing is taken care of
1) the scumbag father's company goes ban currept his wife leaves him and takes there two children with her
2) big brother if u read the chapter 35 of manhwa you will know what happens so after that incident top kinda imprisoned the big bro somewhere , tortures him using same things he has done to other omega ( he had history of assaulting and raping omegas which the top has evidence of) and he ends up dying in all this.
3 ) top becomes the vise president
4) he had decided to let go of bottom of he wanted his freedom but bottom wanted to become pair with him so they pair bond
But another problem comes which was the memories so after pair bonding this time the bottom gets all the memories from top and because it was too much to take he asks top that he want some time for himself
They don't meet for around three months the top becomes depressed
But because they share emotions as well due to pair bonding the bottom realise that top is depressed, and there was one time when suddenly bottom realise that top is feeling happy he gets jealous cause who made the top happy only to see top in party later and realising that top was happy cause he was going to see the bottom
REGARDING THE CHILD IN FIRST LIFE
One of the reason bottom gets more depressed cause he doesn't know who's child is it in first life,
But top later reavales that the child was his cause of pheromones
Hmm top has forest -woody pheromones and bottom smells like flower so the child in bottoms stomach smelled like mixture of this two that's how top knows
I just binge read this manga and I don't understand what the eff is going on? Did the guy lose his memories? And I still like the ml more than the bodyguard wtf
