When Jay gets a full scholarship to the prestigious sangu academy, it feels like a dream. Ancient buildings, brilliant professors, elite students-he's finally where he belongs. But there's something off about the place. The halls are too quiet after dark. The windows are always shut tight. And some students... never attend classes during the day. Paired with a nervous human roommate who warns him to stay away from "the night students," Jay's curiosity grows. And when he meets a pale, hauntingly beautiful boy with secrets darker than the shadows themselves-Jay finds himself tangled in a world of rules, hunger, and blood. Some scholarships are earned. Others are... bait.

Jay had always known his place in the world. He was strong, confident, and in control. An alpha through and through. At least, that's what he'd always been told. And he had no reason to question it. "Yes, well..." the doctor's tone was even, firm. "Based on your results, you are, in fact, an omega." Jay froze. His breath stalled, and the world around him seemed to tilt. "I'm a what?" or: Jay has always been a strong, confident alpha-until the day his body betrays him. What was supposed to be impossible happens: he experiences a heat. He's not an alpha. He's an omega. But in his world, there's no place for omegas, especially not in his group. Desperate to maintain the life he's built, Jay goes into hiding, doing whatever it takes to suppress his subgender, to erase every trace of what he's become.

Armed with a fierce grudge, he was ready to ruin the man responsible for the mess. There was just one problem: the ruthless, untouchable shadow he swore to hate turned out to be the infuriating stranger he had already cursed out. Now, trapped in a gilded cage of cold stares and unspoken commands, the ice between them begins to crack. What starts as a fiery rebellion warps into a suffocating push-and-pull. Venomous arguments melt into heavy, breathless tension. Behind closed doors, stolen glances replace bitter words, and Jay finds himself terrified by how easily his hatred is blurring into a desperate, magnetic desire. ❝𝑰 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅'𝒗𝒆 𝒌𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒚𝒐𝒖.. 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒃𝒆𝒈 𝒐𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒌𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒔.❞ But playing with fire guarantees a burn. When the hidden wars surrounding them finally spill over, the game turns lethal. With survival hanging by a fragile thread and death breathing down their necks, they are forced to drop the act. Beneath the monstrous exterior everyone else fears, Sunghoon is just a man drowning in the ghosts of his past. And Jay is the only light bright enough to guide him out of the dark. In a world where trust is a liability and love is a weapon, their collision isn't just dangerous. It is completely 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠.
