"Where are you heading at this hour?" His voice was low, deep, dangerous. I didn't need to look back. "None of your concern, Mr. Kim." "What's with that attitude, sweetheart? That how you talk to your husband?" A marriage born from a contract..cold, calculated, cruel. Wonwoo only wanted freedom. Mingyu wanted control. What they didn't expect was how obsession could grow from hate. "I'm not your sweetheart." "Of course you are." He tried to leave. Mingyu wouldn't let him. "Stop saying that before I do crazy things to you." "Yeah? And I'll say I've got hands and legs, so I..." "Then spread them for me." A slap. A silence. A spiral they can't escape. This isn't love. This is war. And someone's going to lose.

This is a story about love, family, and the way people grow together through every season of life. Mingyu never expected that his heart would be tied so strongly to Wonwoo, the quiet Omega who always seemed to hide his feelings behind calm eyes. Their bond starts in spring, soft and uncertain, but it grows into something that neither of them can imagine living without. Beside them are Taehyung and Jungkook-two brothers from opposite families who end up mated to each other. Taehyung, playful and confident, finds himself hopelessly devoted to Jungkook, whose fiery spirit challenges him in every way. Their love is messy, passionate, and unshakably real. Around them are friends who are also finding their own paths: Seungcheol and Jeonghan with their steady warmth, Junhui and Minghao with their quiet devotion, Soonyoung and Jihoon's sparks of energy and stubbornness, Seokmin and Joshua's gentle harmony, Vernon and Seungkwan's endless bickering that always leads back to love, and Chan-still waiting for his story to begin. As the seasons change-spring's beginnings, summer's trials, autumn's bittersweet moments, and winter's tests of loyalty and passion-their bonds are tested again and again. There are moments of laughter, arguments, gentle touches, heartbreak, and heat that only makes their love burn stronger. And in the end, after everything they've been through, Mingyu and Wonwoo will stand together and vow their forever, while Taehyung and Jungkook hold in their arms the new life they created together. This isn't just about destiny. It's about choosing each other-through every season, every challenge, and every heartbeat.

Wonwoo never expected to see Mingyu again after middle school, not when their rivalry had defined so much of his life back then. But now, in college, Mingyu is suddenly back, just as competitive, just as infuriating, and somehow even harder to ignore. What starts as the same old back-and-forth begins to shift in ways neither of them are ready to admit, blurring the line between rivalry and something much more complicated. Around them, their friends are caught up in their own stories of love and missteps, turning campus life into a tangle of banter, tension, and the kind of connections that change everything.

Jeon Wonwoo is the quietest name on campus - a top student, Computer Science Council President, and everyone's favorite "nerd." But behind his sharp glasses and calm voice lies something darker.

Model. CEO-in-the-making. And the one person who's made Wonwoo's life a daily battlefield. His rival. His enemy. His secret crush. When a new cyberattack threatens to expose the mafia's hidden network, Wonwoo and Mingyu are forced to cross paths - as partners in a campus-wide investigation neither of them asked for. But love doesn't follow logic. And when codes and bullets start to blur, the biggest secret isn't the one hidden in the servers... It's the one hiding in Wonwoo's heart.

They forced him to kneel, but he never bowed. Jeon Wonwoo - a name whispered in smoke and engine oil, the masked demon of the underground circuit. An Omega by biology, a beast by choice. He was never supposed to exist in that world, let alone rule it. But society doesn't care how fast you drive. They just want you to slow down, submit... marry. And that's when Kim Mingyu entered the scene. The youngest CEO in Korea's elite. An Alpha with too much power, too many secrets, and a single obsession: Wonwoo. Under the guise of a business contract, Mingyu shackled him. A marriage on paper. A prison behind glass walls and expensive sheets. Wonwoo signed with a sneer. He never planned to stay. But Alpha instincts don't fade - and Mingyu's control masks something darker, something primal. What happens when the Omega everyone thought was weak... Turns out to be the flame the Alpha can't put out? "You wanted a marriage?" "Then burn with me, Kim Mingyu." @minwon......
