‘Ro Jaeho' and 'Joo Ian' are the sons of Alpha families who are sworn enemies. However, their little brothers 'Joo Jihwan' and 'Ro Miho' are in a relationship...? Ian joins Miho and Jihwan's holiday in America and meets Jaeho there by chance. There is a strange tension in the air between the two older brothers... "Joo Ian, you... You didn't use to smell like that before!" -I really enjoyed this story even though it features multiple couples across more than one generation. Shows fated pairs who have children then you get to see those children come of age and find their own pairs.

MC is the heir to a Yakuza group but is also an omega and according to gang law only alphas can be Yakuza heads so the current head is making him go on marriage interviews to find a mate. His right hand man is a beta named Makoto who he found as an orphan as a child and took in. During one of the marriage interviews, the alpha drugs MC with a heat inducer drug. MC is saved by a mysterious alpha who MC recognizes as his fated mate by scent. It turns out I was Makoto who was secretly an alpha all along. - I thoroughly enjoyed this story and like all the main characters. I just really wish it was longer. The end seemed kind of abrupt.

Bao is an omega who lives alone on a farm and makes rice wine. His crops are always being eaten by a pesky river deer and he is constantly being bullied by a town nobel. Every night Bao prays to the mountain god to bring him a man (preferably an orc who in this universe is an animal that can take human form). One day he encounters a handsome man with long fangs and dark hair who Bao assumes is the black tiger he has seen around the territory. Finally he found him a man, too bad that man is actually the musk deer that's been destroying his crops. - this story is funny and cute and super light hearted. The one big gripe I have is that the conflict with the nobleman didn't seem to ever get resolved. Otherwise I enjoyed it quite a bit.

After a tiring day at work, Take comes home to find his son crying in the dark by himself. His wife ran away, leaving Take to take care of his son, Kota, as a single father. After Kota starts nursery school, Take finds out that one of the teachers, Aoto, was a kid he used to bully in school. One night, after Take is vulnerable in front of Aoto, Take invites Aoto to his home and they sleep together. - This story is ok but there is no drama, conflict, or tension. They meet again and Take cries some to Aoto and BAM! They are in love and raising a kid together. It's cute but there's no depth.

Riku was raised in an alpha family, going to an alpha school, and believes he is an alpha. One night he attends a high class social avent for the most sought after alpha Keiki who hosts events every week looking for his fated pairs. Sparks fly when Riku meets Keiki and he suddenly goes into heat. It turns out Riku is actually an omega who was switched at birth and raised to be an alpha. Now his life is thrown into turmoil now that he has found his fated pairs. - I really like this story but the translation is awful hopefully it gets an official translation soon.

Juhyeok is a beta that only dreams of escaping to the sunny sands of Hawaii. Instead he is surrounded by alphas and omegas and all of their drama that make his work life uncomfortable. To make matters worse his alpha boss Mr. Kim, comes down from the 9th floor to harras him every morning. What is a beta supposed to do when surrounded by all these alpha and omegas going crazy around him? I really like this story. I like how toxic and insane alpha/omega relationships look from the perspective of someone who doesn't understand the dynamics or pheromones or anything like that. But the story progresses a little too slow and ends a point that I feel should be the middle.

Jeong Sejin(omega) was taken by a rich head of a top company when he was child and abused him ever since. The company is failing and Sejin is plagued with nightmares of being raped by a stranger. His father forces him into an engagement with the second son of the thriving Seonho Group who seems to know all of Sejins likes and private thoughts even though they never met. And why does Sejin keep having feelings of deja vu whit him?

Woojin decides to go on a magical trip to Europe where he going to meet a new guy in every country and lose his virginity in order to get over his unrequited crush back in Korea. Only his trip immediately goes wrong when, because of language barrier, he finds he has nowhere to stay. In his moment of distress he runs into the crush he was trying to forget. His crush lets him stay the night with him and because of some misfortune of his own, they end up traveling together. Then on a drunken night they end up sleeping together before they part ways. How is Woojin supposed to face him when they return to school? --I really like this story. It's so cute and heartfelt. But the crush dude can be frustrating and obtuse at times.

During his high school years, Keita was slender and had feminine features, but he fell in love with Satoshi, an upperclassman who had the lean, masculine physique he dreamed of. Keita confessed and perhaps due to his beautiful, girly looks, they started going out. Three years later, their relationship is as strong as ever, and they currently live together like newlyweds. However, there was one big change...! Keita had matured into a manly guy! Because Satoshi used to be straight, Keita begins to wonder what his boyfriend thinks about the situation, even when they're having sex... --- I absolutely love this story. I love how wholesome it is and love how both main characters love and care for each other. Only reason it's not 5 stars is I love my drama and angst and there's not really any. And that can be refreshing.

Yanagi wants to have a successful college debut as a cool guy so he dies his hair. The cool guy he works with, Igarashi, tells him his died hair is lame. Igarashi bites Yanagi and they get turned on. Igarashi has many piercings and since he is cool Yanagi also wants a piercing. Igarashi continues to bite Yanagi and when Igarashi is piercing Yanagi's ear things really heat up. --- Story is very mehh. It's very quick. There is no depth to any characters. It is readable though.
