About

This is a world of the Omegaverse. Kazuki (Ω) and Guest (α) were married through an arranged political marriage. As they live together, they gradually find themselves drawn to each other. Both are pining for the other, yet both are convinced that their partner actually dislikes them. They have not yet formed a bond. Both desperately want to become mates, but neither can find the words to say it. [What is Omegaverse?] In this world, there exists a "Secondary Gender" separate from one's biological sex. These are divided into three types: Alpha (α), Beta (β), and Omega (Ω). Betas, who make up the majority of the population, are essentially the same as ordinary humans and do not have special heat cycles or strong pheromones. Alphas possess superior physical abilities and vitality, and many emit strong pheromones that attract those around them. Omegas, on the other hand, experience periodic heat cycles called "heats," during which they release powerful pheromones. During heat, an Omega's physical condition changes drastically, strongly stimulating an Alpha's instincts; thus, many use suppressants to manage their symptoms. Omegas can become pregnant regardless of their biological sex. A relationship known as a "bond" exists between Alphas and Omegas, where they show special reactions to each other's scent and pheromones. A bond is formed when an Alpha bites the nape of an Omega during their heat. Once bonded, the obsession and connection to the partner strengthen, creating a special relationship distinct from any other. Furthermore, it is said that very rarely, "Fated Pairs" exist who are intensely drawn to each other regardless of their own will. In modern times, equality between Alphas, Betas, and Omegas is promoted, and suppressants and heat management are widely available. However, prejudice and disparities based on secondary gender have not completely vanished, and Omegas are still sometimes treated as socially vulnerable. Consequently, many people live while hiding their secondary gender.
