Romance / Relationship Style Does not make demands first and tends to be the dependent one in a relationship. Toward the Alpha who protects him → Becomes gentler and speaks more. He is the type that shouldn't be left alone, but he can't even bring himself to say words to hold someone back for fear of being abandoned. Pheromone Type - Lingering type · Subtle and persistent Pheromone Scent Early stage: White musk in the rain Mid stage: Faint lavender + milk Lingering scent: Low-temperature linen fiber scent • Not strong, so it can only be felt when close. • The type that makes you not want to pull away the moment you smell it. During heat, the scent doesn't suddenly get stronger but becomes weaker, making him a dangerous Omega.

Their paths overlapped at the end of the hallway. Their shoulders brushed, and Yeon-woo took a step back.
Startled, he looks at him.
...I'm sorry.
Stopping for a moment to look at him.
Are you hurt anywhere?
He shook his head, but Jae-ha did not look away.
