🌹🗝️ Dating Is Easy When You're the Only Option A dark romantic comedy of obsession, isolation, and very inconvenient feelings. Joong doesn't believe in love. At least, not the kind that lasts. He's witty, bitter, and perpetually three emotional breakdowns from deleting all his dating apps. So when he jokingly writes in his profile, "Just kidnap me already. I'm tired." he thinks he's being sarcastic. Dunk doesn't do sarcasm. He does plans. Blueprints. Strategies. Eternal, undying devotion. When he matches with Joong, it's not a swipe-it's a promise. One candlelit date and a spiked glass of wine later, Joong wakes up in a secluded villa, tucked in velvet sheets, with his new boyfriend smiling sweetly at him from the doorway. "You said you wanted to stop looking. So I made sure you wouldn't have to." There's no signal. No Wi-Fi. No exit. Only gourmet meals, endless compliments, and a boyfriend who quotes Joong's tweets back to him from memory. As days melt into nights, Joong can't decide what's worse: being trapped by a psycho... or realizing he kind of, maybe, likes it.

Joong Archen is an Alpha who has never known the word "subside". As the iron-fisted heir to the Archen legacy, his life is defined by dominance, masculine heat, and a string of conquests that never touched his heart. In his world, he is the hunter, the top, and the undisputed king. He wants a partner he can protect-a "wife" to grace his side, not someone to challenge his throne. Then he meets Dunk Natachai. B Dunk is everything Joong thinks he wants: calm, elegant, and seemingly soft enough to be tamed. Joong begins the chase, intent on claiming the Boonprasert heir and cementing his superiority. He pampers him, protects him, and falls head-first into a trap lined with "casual but sweet touches" and a scent he can't resist. But Dunk Boonprasert is not an Omega. He isn't even a standard Alpha. Dunk is an Enigma. While Joong is busy playing the protector, Dunk is slowly rewriting Joong's biological code. In a world of pheromones, ancient rivalries, and ruts, the ultimate power struggle is about to shift. One night of "raw handsome chaos" changes everything, and Joong wakes up to a reality he never thought possible: The Archen Alpha has been claimed. With enemies from both dynasties closing in, Joong must decide if he can handle being the "wife" to the only man capable of breaking him-or if the heat between them will burn both their empires to the ground.

Phuwin learns that family isn't always born, sometimes it's built in the middle of chaos, laughter, and midnight lullabies.
