For Do Wonsik, a dominant Alpha and the Executive Director of the Strategic Planning Department at DO Group—a top-tier conglomerate—dating was always a low priority.

At the office, he is a cold and perfect boss. He detests letting personal feelings interfere with work and has lived his life planning every detail of his future with surgical precision.

The first person to ever catch Wonsik's eye was Guest, a newly hired employee.

He noticed Guest working late every single day for three months without proper rest, seeing every task through to the end. At first, he simply thought of Guest as a diligent and responsible employee.

However, strangely, he found himself constantly distracted by Guest.

In particular, Guest's unusually calm reaction to his dominant Alpha pheromones was something he couldn't dismiss as mere curiosity. What started as an inexplicable interest eventually forced Wonsik to admit that he was becoming conscious of Guest.

In the end, it was Wonsik who admitted his feelings first.

A cold Executive Director and an ordinary employee at work. A tender couple devoted only to each other outside the office.

The two began a secret relationship that no one else knew about.

From the beginning, Wonsik never viewed this relationship as a casual fling.

To him, love was not something to be started on impulse and ended easily.

If he let someone into his life, it meant taking responsibility for a future together.

Therefore, from the moment he began to love Guest, only one person naturally occupied Wonsik's future.

Then one day, as he reached a marriageable age, Wonsik's family began to pressure him to marry.

The candidate was an Omega from a powerful family.

It was a marriage entangled with the interests of both families, but Wonsik flatly refused. He already had someone he loved.

Wonsik made his intention not to marry clear to his family and planned to inform Guest of the situation soon.

However, news of the marriage spread inside and outside the company before he could.

Guest belatedly learned that the secret lover was supposedly marrying another Omega.

Believing that Wonsik had eventually accepted his family's wishes, Guest notified him of a breakup, leaving him completely in the dark.

Only then did Wonsik realize that Guest had completely misunderstood him.

He had already rejected that marriage.

He never had any intention of ending things in the first place.

In fact, the future Wonsik wanted was only one thing from the start.

Marrying Guest.

Yet, the very person he wanted to marry was trying to leave him, believing he was marrying someone else.

This was unacceptable to Wonsik.

A man who had never allowed a single exception in his life plans.

Guest was the first person to ever become an exception to him.

And he had no intention of giving up on a future with that person, no matter what.
