"Sooner or later, you'll fall for me, too." Theodore bursts into laughter. "I don't know where your confidence is coming from." Jacob chuckles and says, "I just know." And then it catches Theodore off guard when Jacob adds, "We should be making out right now." Theodore swallows and looks him in the eye. "We should." "And I should be undressing you at this very moment," he continues, "We could stay up all night with our hands on each other and just... forget everything." ****** Meet Jacob and Theodore, the polar opposites within a tight-knit circle of the most esteemed members of society.

"Colby?" Avery asks, his voice wavering only slightly. I turn to him, cursing at myself for hesitating, if only for a minute. "Yeah?" "Do you have a crush on me?" My heart shatters, but I can't lie. Not to him. Not about this. "Yes, Avery. I've had a crush on you since that day you got drunk and stumbled into my house. Every time I look at you, I can't help wanting to touch you and craving you." I pause, taking in a shuddering breath. "This doesn't have to change anything. You don't --" He snatches my hands. "You wanna touch me, Colby?" His sudden boldness stops me in my tracks. I nod slowly as he nears my face, his cheek brushing mine. He whispers in my ear, a raspy murmur that sends electric shocks through my entire body. "Do it. I fucking dare you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Avery Thomas and Colby Beck are best friends; thick as thieves, but polar opposites.

"Aren't you tired of the way you live?" A voice inside of him would ask. "What can i do? I was born to live the life of a killing machine that dances to the command of my master. You think i never tried to run away from my life?" He would reply. That was him. The prodigy, the pride and praise of assassins. His hands were dyed with blood. Blood of men, women, children and the aged. He tried to rinse the blood out of his life but failed miserably. It was like a string attached to him, following him even in his dreams. "I see you are trying to run from your shell." The old woman said to him. "You are a pitiable person. When death welcomes you i pray you be free of your chains." She smiled as her cracked lips left her final breathe and her eyes lost its gleam. "Aaahhhhh!" The sound of painful scream echoed the room as he pressed his sword into his skin. He was ordered to kill the president of the country and bombard his residence. That was his last mission. But instead of leaving the house alive he stayed behind watching his piece of work decorate the walls of the building. He smiled. "It seems this is the only way to attain my own freedom."

He was gifted the chance to live in freedom, to redeem himself and live the life he had wished for. But inside the world of a book. Life was all happy and beautiful. Until one unfortunate day he was entangled with the worst situation as he had to present himself before the antagonist of the book.

But nothing could be worst than being objected as a sexual toy by the villain of the book, who had his ways with him right?

[HIATUS] In a world where four genders exist: male, female, and the rare bloomers and pollinators. Gyu-min has a problem. As a bloomer, he should emit the scent of fragrant flowers, attracting the powerful pollinators with whom they share a symbiotic bond. But Gyu-min is different; he's an odorless bloomer, a rarity among rarities, forcing him to live as an ordinary man in the entertainment industry. For years, Gyu-min harbored an unspoken love for his co-actor, Kang Seong-jin, a pollinator destined for greatness. But one fateful night changes everything. Drunk and disoriented, Gyu-min mistakenly enters the wrong hotel room, one left open due to a booking mix-up. Inside, his dormant bloomer instincts awaken, releasing a fragrance so intoxicating that the man beside him, weakened by desire, succumbs to nature's call. The night passes in a haze, and by morning, Gyu-min flees without ever seeing the man's face. Weeks later, a shocking revelation--he's pregnant. But his joy turns to heartbreak when he sees Seong-jin's engagement to his long-time rival, Lee Shi-hwan, plastered across every screen. Determined to escape scandal and protect his unborn child, Gyu-min terminates his contract and leaves for abroad. Six years later, he returns, no longer the naïve young actor who once dreamed of love. Beside him stands a striking boy with eyes eerily similar to the man from that fateful night. As the entertainment world buzzes with his comeback, secrets begin to unravel. Who is the father of his child? And why does Kang Seong-jin, a Movie Emperor, seem so drawn to the little boy with his own fragrance? A story of love, betrayal, and fate--can a bloomer who was once overlooked finally take root in the heart of the one he loves?
