    Summary

    Seungmin was told at thirteen that he’d present as beta. It was unsurprising and he was content with that since it meant a quiet, easy life.
    At fourteen he was even relieved as JYP and other major idol agencies announced a ban on omega trainees.

    Years later, he debuted in Stray Kids, now a decently successful group full of alphas and betas. While still unpresented in his mid twenties, it didn’t bother him much since he was only a beta after all.

    Until one day a scorching heat overtook his body and he realised how wrong he was. This was a secret capable of ruining more than just his own life.

    OR

    Seungmin was told he would present as a beta. So when a heat threatens to hit him, he decides to hide his secondary gender from everyone no matter the cost, as omegas cannot be idols.

    Summary

    To JYPE, the solution is simple; take the sole trainee that will not debut with your brand new girl group, and use her to replace the missing vocalist in your male group that insisted on starting as nine.

    Unfortunately, to the fans and the members themselves, it isn't that simple.

    Summary

    This is Book 2 in the series. Please read The Side Effect Is You first!

     

    I’m such an idiot.

    Then again… we’ve both been idiots in love.

    Standing outside JYPE headquarters after two months of silence, I told myself I didn’t expect to see Chris. I told myself I just wanted to make sure he was okay. I absolutely wasn’t prepared for the way my name sounded in his voice—raw, desperate—or for the way he ran to me on the streets of Seoul. How do you rebuild something that spectacularly wrecked itself on lies and heartbreak?

    –or–

    After the explosive ending of The Side Effect Is You, Ellie “Nuna” Markos arrives in Seoul, South Korea, for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at MBC. A chance encounter with Christopher Bahng outside JYPE pulls them back into each other’s orbit. As they learn to talk, trust, and love again, After Rain follows their slow, tender journey toward the future neither was ready to admit they wanted.

    Summary

    “Minho, listen to me. Whatever you do, don’t bite him, okay?”

    “Bite,” Minho repeats foggily, liking the way the word feels in his mouth, between his teeth.

    “I wouldn’t usually be concerned about your control, but with you two…”

    “Us two.” He thinks about it. He’s never let himself think of them as an us before. Jisung continues to linger by the door, so close, painfully close. Within claiming distance. Just a scant inch or two of door between them.

    “He’s your blind spot,” Chan says matter-of-factly.

    “Blind spot?”

    There’s a short sigh. “This conversation is going nowhere. I’m coming over, okay? Minho? I’m coming.”

    “Minho?” Jisung asks again, and he can feel himself smiling, sunning in the sound of his voice.

    “Sung-ah,” Minho says warmly, phone slipping from his hand and thunking softly against the carpeted floor. “Omega.”

     

    Jisung presents late, panics, and hides it from his friends. As the weeks pass, Minho is haunted by a mystery scent that calls to him like nothing ever has before.

    Summary

    Marisol Reyes prefers control.

    Online, she’s anonymous—a faceless dancer whose quiet precision has captivated millions. No voice. No identity. No risk.

    Until she agrees to a carefully arranged fake-dating contract with global superstar Bang Chan.

    It’s strategic. Temporary. Safe.

    At least, it’s supposed to be.

    Until it isn't.

    But the spotlight has a way of revealing what’s hidden, and the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to separate performance from something real.

    Because being seen by the world is one thing.

    Being seen by him is another.
