Wei Yin was an omega whose pheromones were so faint they were almost scentless. Timid, fragile, and seemingly ordinary in every way, she couldn't understand why Hua Yu, a stunning, brilliant high-ranking alpha, treated her so well. When her glands atrophied and severe anemia left her on the brink of death, Hua Yu took her home and gave her a place to belong. The only way Wei Yin knew to repay her kindness was to work even harder. She kept the house spotless, cooked every meal, did the laundry every day... but why was Hua Yu looking at her more and more strangely? --- Hua Yu was Wei Yin's university senior and the youngest associate chief physician at the provincial hospital. Years ago, Hua Yu had confessed her feelings in public, only to be rejected. She had thought that youthful infatuation would eventually fade with time. Instead, Wei Yin stumbled back into her life. Having lost all her memories, armed with a stack of medical reports filled with devastatingly low numbers, Wei Yin lay waiting to die in one of Hua Yu's hospital beds. Hua Yu couldn't bear it any longer. With reddened eyes, she took Wei Yin home. --- From the day Wei Yin moved in, the house was filled with the sweet scent of agave that marked an omega's pheromones. Wei Yin remained completely unaware. Because her pheromones were so weak, she went right on working through her heat, changing the sheets, washing towels, and hanging clothes to dry. The intoxicating fragrance curled around Hua Yu's senses while the oblivious omega continued drifting closer to danger. Poking Hua Yu's cheek with genuine concern, Wei Yin asked innocently, "You're so warm." Hua Yu's eyes reddened. Her voice came out hoarse. "Help me cool down." "Okay... Hua Yu, why are you holding my hand?" Hua Yu pressed her against the wall. A flicker of restraint crossed her beautiful face, like a patient hunter who had finally reached the end of her endurance. Her teeth brushed the sweetly scented nape of her prey's neck. "Cooling down... doesn't require you to do any work." Wei Yin: My neck hurts...?! --- Later, after recovering all her memories and taking complete control of Hua Yu's salary card as her status rose, Wei Yin made a point of covering the back of her neck with three layers of reinforced suppressant patches before every heat. She was determined not to trigger the endlessly energetic alpha who was absurdly sensitive to her pheromones. She failed every single time. Chuckling, Hua Yu ruffled her hair, coaxed the sulking Wei Yin out from under the blankets, and fed her a spoonful of soup. "You know I can smell your pheromones." Wei Yin looked genuinely puzzled. "But they're so faint." Hua Yu kissed her. "Mm. I'm the only one who can. Because... I've wanted to be your girlfriend for a very long time." Wei Yin: Hmph! QAQ
