Summary
“Hi,” he said, voice relieved and quiet, “how’re you feeling?”
Han wanted to answer - he found himself wanting to respond positively if only to ease the troubled look in the man’s kind eyes - but the only thing that left his throat was a squeak.
The man scoffed good naturedly, and ducked his head. He pressed his forehead to their joined hands for a moment, as if gathering strength, before he righted himself again.
When he met Han’s eyes, he was crying.
“I’m so glad you’re back,” he whispered as he crumbled, “and I’m sorry it took us so long to get you out.”
Life outside the Shining City is desolate and primitive - but it's free.
When Jisung is taken back to be re-indoctrinated, he has to find within himself the strength to survive and to remember his brothers who are waiting for him on the outside.

Summary
Nothing in Minho's life is ever complete until he's shared it with Jisung; such has been the case for the last twenty years. It gets to a point.
He's seen Jisung interact with countless patients and families. He’s seen how his charm and confidence make even the parents who side eye him for his youthful face and the tattoos on his arms come to trust him with their entire worlds. The children themselves are even quicker to warm up to him, and Jisung is always able to examine them without any major fuss.
Sometimes Minho wishes he could send him off to do his rounds for him.

Summary
Minho says, “Why were you buying ice cream?”
Objectively, it’s a strange question to ask. It has nothing to do with anything. It’s only a throwaway detail, to anyone else. They could have been out buying fried chicken, or band-aids, or fucking fish food, and it wouldn’t have changed anything.
But they weren’t. They were buying ice cream. And Jisung knows why Minho asks, because Jisung isn’t anyone else.
He tightens his grip around Felix’s waist. Minho’s eyes stay on his face, but Jisung knows he catches the action. Peripheral vision, or something. He swipes a tongue over his bottom lip, dry, and Minho follows that one. His gaze is so heavy on him that it makes Jisung forget all his lines. All his stories, all his rehearsed feelings. There’s only one line he knows, and it’s only because his heart memorized it for him.
Why? Minho asks.
“For you,” Jisung answers.
(P158 - Jisung agrees to fake date Felix to get Seungmin to stop setting him up with random guys. Even though they end up committing to the bit in a super cringey, over the top, painfully obviously in how fake it is way, Minho gets ridiculously jealous anyway and has to come to terms with why that is.)

Summary
Minho’s breath was stolen when the boy looked up, his insanely wide, pretty eyes sparkling with embarrassment and worry, igniting something in his chest.
He breathed in deeply, and the faintest scent hit him—sweet like honey. An omega’s scent. But even if he hadn’t smelled him, his soft features, wide eyes, and flawless face were incredibly omega-like.
What surprised him was that he didn’t find his scent overwhelming. Usually, those with honey scents were far too sweet, thick, and sticky. But his was light, just enough to tickle his nose and make him breathe in a little deeper.
Or thirty-seven-year-old alpha Minho meets twenty-four-year-old omega Jisung, who works at the new convenience store across from his company. He learns quickly that Jisung has an eight-year-old son, and that behind his admirable strength, is a deeply painful past.

Summary
It’s only him, Felix and one of their managers in the car when it happens.
When the random person in a non-descript brown hoodie walks past the cracked window of the car as it idles at a stoplight and the whole car suddenly fills with the sickly, sticky scent of flowers.
The smell is pungent—so much so that it makes manager Jinwoo cough and Felix retch and exclaim a ragged "fucking hell" in English. Their manager rolls down all the windows, and it feels like a relief, despite the smoggy Seoul air. It clears the worst of the scent out of the confined space of the car, but it still lingers in Chan’s nose, covering the back of his throat. Even twenty minutes later, when they finally roll into the garage of Felix's dorm, he can still taste it, like it’s sitting right under his tongue, coats his teeth, makes his saliva feel sticky and sweet.
OR
chan and felix get sex pollened. chan, who's been sick with yearning for felix for so many years, doesn't even notice a difference - until changbin, hyunjin and jisung come to get him because felix will not let anyone help him but chan.

Summary
After a messy breakup with his cheating boyfriend, Jisung would rather do literally anything than attend Hyunjin’s dance department party. Unfortunately, Felix refuses to let him wallow forever.
Seeing his ex again sends Jisung straight into panic mode, and he does the only thing his omega instincts can think of: he grabs the nearest alpha and asks him to pretend they’re together.
Lee Minho hadn’t expected to become someone’s fake boyfriend that night. But he certainly doesn’t seem to mind.
Or: Jisung panics, grabs the nearest alpha like a lifeline to scare off his cheating ex, and accidentally ends up meeting his soulmate in the process.
