But I’m Just a Beta

In this ABO world with its rigid hierarchy, Qi Zhao is the most unremarkable beta, a background character. Born into a family obsessed with social standing, his beta designation meant social exile. He had resigned himself to an ordinary life, but at twenty-four, he’s forced to fight for his younger sister, who is about to be married off to a fifty-year-old man. His friends introduce him to Qi Wei. Qi Wei offers to alter all of Qi Zhao’s official records, to be his backer and stepping stone. In return, he wants only one thing—Qi Zhao himself. Qi Zhao remains silent for a long time. “…But I’m just a beta.” Qi Wei, on the other hand, is one of the world’s most elite alphas. Qi Wei smiles, his eyes flashing with the satisfaction of a predator trapping its prey. “Whether you’re an alpha, an omega, or a beta, from now on, you’re mine.” The person he yearns for day and night isn’t defined by their A, B, or O status. Betas don’t have pheromones. To an alpha with heightened senses, Qi Zhao’s scent is unique. During his rut, even hiding in Qi Zhao’s closet won’t allow Qi Wei to nest. He has to hold Qi Zhao, constantly close, to successfully navigate his rut.^^ Alpha attacker, madly in love at first sight and strategically advancing step by step x Beta receiver, who understands everything but keeps their edge hidden.
