sharkbait's manga / #First Love(7)

Uke comes across his first love (Seme) at his work. After losing his wife, Seme is now a single dad to his son who is in Uke's class. As Seme is not particularly good at taking care of himself (ie cooking, cleaning, dressing like a normal person), so in the spirit of rekindled friendship Uke helps him out by teaching him, as he wants his student to have a functional human being as his parent. Along the way old feelings float to the surface and new feelings emerge.

The wholesomeness continues. And it introduces more characters and, would you look at that, a bonus couple with their own spin-off. Gods, I could read about these two forever.

Aoi, the head-strong talented omega heir of the Toujou family, and Jirou, the insecure alpha heir to the Saionji family, meet as children and instantly feel drawn to each other, soulmates. Aoi feels as though he has found the reason why he was born an omega, to be with Jirou. Jirou on the other hand is frustrated, he feels like he can't let himself fall for destiny and rejects Aoi. As a result of this faithful encounter, the young alpha develops a hatred of omegas and destiny, things he is convinced do not fit within the pre-set course his life is supposed to take. After the death of his parents, Aoi is exiled from his family home and stripped of his status by his stepmother. Aoi and his butler Miyauchi (beta) make for the Saionji family estate to find a place to live and work. Jirou and his butler Kudou (alpha) are against Aoi working at the estate, but Jirou's dad gives the okay so the other two alphas are left to pout. Despite the rocky start, Aoi is determined to make it and under Kudou's tutelage grows to become a capable butler, whilst simultaneously making friends with most of the other staff. Just as the new normal begins to take shape Aoi gets his first heat and is manhandled into a room by Kudou who does his very best to keep his composure. Whilst Miyauchi deals with the alpha staff and tries to locate a suppressant, the locked door between Aoi and the rest of the house is not enough to keep Jirou away. Aoi lets Jirou in. The secondary story revolves around Kudou, the alpha head-butler of the Saionji family, and Miyauchi, Aoi's personal beta butler. Despite the bickering, the fighting and Miyauchi's biting tongue, Kudou falls in love with Miyauchi. Miyauchi, however, is convinced this 'love' will go nowhere. Miyauchi has a truly tragic backstory resulting in him having no faith in himself and a hatred towards all things destiny. Kudou, proud alpha that he is, is determined to make Miyauchi happy and marry the stubborn beta bastard.

The second seme is an absolute fucking dickhead, the biggest asshole, he bullied his uke their entire childhood, basically treating like a slave, he ingrained a pavlovian response in the guy, the poor uke flinches wherever the seme touches him, talks to him, interacts with him in any way! Seme is incapable of communicating like a healthy individual, spoiled fucking rich brat. The first story is sweeter though, they don't say it out loud because they are both tsundere af but hey love each other.
