ehem ehem.. 10th, 20th & 30th is it.. gonna put it on my calendar (≧∀≦) we're so backkkk!
I just wrote this LONG summary for someone, but I thought it'll be useful for my spoiler seekers xD Summary starts from their Hong Kong trip and on --
• They sleep together for the first time in Hong Kong. After returning, Yeehyeon’s uncle from his hometown shows up at Morae and Yeehan’s house. Yeehyeon pulls him aside so the couple won’t see him and get distressed. The uncle explains that Morae’s dad, Mr. Lim, is using the family debt as an excuse to pressure them about the three of them running away. He wants them to come back and “stop the childish love” stuff. Yeehyeon asks for 24 hours before he shows up again. This is where things take a turn.
• Yeehyeon shows up at Liu’s place in the middle of the rain, completely soaked and distressed, asking for help. This is when Liu abandons his resolve and fully devotes himself to Yeehyeon, letting go of his control as a Golden Alpha after seeing how vulnerable he is. Liu comes up with an elaborate plan: (1) pay off the uncle so Mr. Lim loses his leverage, and (2) relocate Yeehan and Morae to Bali. In exchange, Yeehyeon agrees to become a signed artist for Phantom. They sleep together that night, and the next morning they deal with the uncle and send Morae and Yeehan off to the airport.
• Yeehyeon starts living in Liu’s basement. Liu assigns him a private driver and tells him not to go anywhere without the car so Mr. Lim can’t find him. Yeehyeon stops working at Phantom and focuses entirely on painting at Liu’s place. His world becomes much smaller, and since Liu provides everything—housing, food, flights, opportunities—Yeehyeon feels extremely uncomfortable being so tied to Liu without independence.
• After about two months of sleeping together (knotting basically every time, sometimes multiple times), Yeehyeon starts showing signs of “Changing.” He assumes it’s just indigestion and tells Liu he’ll go to the hospital since it’s not improving. Liu panics, worried that Yeehyeon will find out the truth—that he’s becoming an omega—so he goes to Inwoo and confesses everything. They have a huge fight, but Liu eventually convinces Inwoo to help him make Yeehyeon believe it’s just indigestion, at least until after the Chicago trip, when Liu promises to tell him. Inwoo only agrees because he doesn’t want Yeehyeon to find out in a traumatic way.
• During the Chicago trip, they exchange their first “I love you.” Liu is clearly falling apart from the guilt of keeping the secret as their relationship deepens. Even though he’s known for controlling his pheromones, he basically becomes a slave to Yeehyeon’s and starts showing strong protectiveness toward his “omega.” Terrified of losing him, Liu begins acting out of character—like planning to open a New York branch of Phantom and taking Yeehyeon there to isolate him and increase the chances he won’t leave. Yeehyeon agrees to relocate since Yeehan and Morae are in Bali, and nothing is holding him back except his Phantom family. At the same time, he receives an offer from “The Hands” in Paris—an organization supporting independent artists. It’s a great opportunity for his independence, but he chooses Liu instead.
• After the Chicago trip, about a week before leaving for New York, Yeehyeon accidentally learns the truth from Shushu. He goes to Inwoo first because he can’t trust Liu. Inwoo admits he knew and explains his side. Yeehyeon tries to leave, feeling betrayed again, and Inwoo—like a dumbass—kisses him and makes it about himself. Yeehyeon brushes it off as a mistake.
• This becomes a huge issue later with Liu, who grows extremely possessive and jealous. He becomes the kind of “alpha” he hates. Yeehyeon gets checked out, confronts Liu, and tells him he’s “pregnant”—basically bluffing to force the truth out. He says he’s 50% omega and plans to visit his dad instead of going to New York. Liu admits he’s a “ghost” who can turn betas into omegas, but hides the part about Yeehyeon being “diamond dust” because he doesn’t want him blaming himself.
• Liu later visits Yeehyeon in his hometown. Yeehyeon decides to accept The Hands offer instead of moving to New York, saying he needs independence. They agree to keep in touch, but neither of them reaches out for about a year.
• During that time, we see their separate lives. Liu basically becomes a ghost—smoking constantly, abandoning the New York branch idea, and carrying the “Isolation” painting everywhere. He eventually goes to Bali to see Morae and Yeehan, planning to watch from afar. Morae immediately recognizes him from Yeehyeon’s “Mr. Rabbit” drawing and takes him to their bar, showing him the drawing. That’s when Liu decides that even if they don’t get back together, he’ll stay close and watch from afar. He gets an apartment near The Hands (the narration makes it sound less creepy).
• Meanwhile, Yeehyeon fully commits to his art like a full-time job. He joins a support group for people who manifest as alphas or omegas later in life and starts educating himself. He realizes he never really tried to understand things from Liu’s perspective as an alpha with pheromones, or how different people’s lives are from a “beta-centric” POV.
• After about a year, he learns about “diamond dust,” but even before that, he decides to get back together with Liu. He recognizes that Liu’s mistake doesn’t define him entirely, and instead focuses on what they shared—their connection to art, feeling alive together, emotional vulnerability, and intimacy. The author doesn’t gloss over Liu’s wrongdoing; they work through it slowly with a lot of communication.
• Even after getting back together, they stay long-distance for a while until Yeehyeon becomes a recognized artist. They eventually get married at Phantom (Yeehyeon’s father shows up to the wedding) and they move to Bali to open a Phantom branch there. Yeehan and Morae have a child. Yeehyeon fully becomes an omega, experiences his first heat, which triggers Liu’s first rut. The story ends with Yeehyeon becoming pregnant and a baby shower where it’s revealed they’re having a girl.
• Regarding smut scenes: ooof, they’re super hot. Lingerie play, phone sex, heat/rut, lots of dirty talk, lots of them admitting their jealousies and possessiveness from both sides.
There's a lot more nuances I didn't cover, but I assume this is plenty for now? :D
I read the novel...
His reaction in the last panel was because he was shocked that he lost control and knotted him. He had never knotted anyone during sex before and was known for having very good control over it. The reason he never “knotted” anyone is actually connected to the story Diamond Dust.
I was so want to read it but I can't go pass a few page, want to puke really... such a loss of gem.. I remember loving this so much, I search it on different platform for more chapter.. now with this unhinged character style, I already forgot what they used to look like.. is there novel for this?? I want to read it so bad
Such a huge turn off!!! I kept thinking i might be able to read it every time i see an update but it kept disappointing me
This is my first time reading an author’s afterword so closely. I really can’t wait for the second part to be released. Since the story has three parts, it probably won’t take too long for us to get the complete story, which is great, but at the same time, I feel a little sad knowing it will eventually come to an end one dau.
Now I’m going to bookmark this first. I don’t know whether I should feel happy or sad. The idea of rediscovering a manga I bookmarked before, only to find that it has many new chapters; feels thrilling. At the same time, it can be a little annoying if I think it’s a new manga, only to realize that I’ve already read it.
This is the first time I hate the change of artstyle, usually I dont care that much maybe despite the change it didnt bother me much.. but this time it was such a huge turn off… and I like this manhwa so much too ╥﹏╥
I'm really hoping Seungmin is genuinely sincere with Jaeyoung - and honestly, I believe he is so far. If that's true, no angst will break me. I'll wait through everything for their happiness, especially you Jaeyoung, and all the future fluff.. hehehe (づ￣ ³￣)づ
arghh… so damn goood, whyy.. why I find it now and jot later… urghhh
I binge reading it the whole night… well mr kang might be unhinged at the beginning but boy doesn’t he so in love… it has alot of chapter I thought it was completed… why did I find it now （/TДT)/ maybe I can read the novel
I only found the novel up to chapter 79 (MTL). It was a good read, just a bit confusing later because so many new characters get introduced and I’m bad at remembering who’s who. But I love the leads’ dynamic, total power couple. They’re mature, they know what they want, and that includes their relationship too. (▰˘◡˘▰)
Wow.. this was so good.. I love a power couple.. it feel different from other office manga/ manhwa.. arghh I found this to early(/TДT)/
I’m trying to identify an Omegaverse BL manhwa/manga I read some time ago. The story begins with the protagonist, who suddenly manifesting as an Omega during a check-up at a clinic or hospital. At workplace, he meets an Alpha whose scent feels calming; something like a forest or clean air, that immediately puts him at ease. There’s also a stalker working in the same company who keeps targeting him; the stalker release strong pheromones that can paralyse? him or trigger his heat, and this happens several times throughout the story (I think). Eventually, the protagonist and the Alpha team up to uncover the identity of the stalker and the protagonist also get together with the Alpha thru out the journey. I can’t find it after searching for few hour, so if this sounds familiar to anyone, please tell me!
I was reading it from last night and now finished the latest chapter at 7.30am… what was that, I was so into it and it end… don't do this to me… arrghhhh
Just finished the last chapter while listening to a random playlist and somehow the timing matched the story so well. Right after Marin and the villain died, it felt like all the bad things ended there. The song that played was so youthful and full of hope, and it really added to the feeling when all her friends were able to meet and gather again. Then, as the story moved to the part where she visited his past and they hugged at the end, a comforting song started playing. The whole experience felt even more emotional because of how perfectly the music aligned with the scenes. Truly beautiful story, I cried a few times (▰˘◡˘▰)
-most of the stories i add has a good female cast, since i avoid reading stories with weak, stupid, trashy female cast
- smart and op mc

I recently read Absolute Regression and found the father-and-son relationship cute. I also just read Chronicles of the Demon Faction, and while they're not father and son but master and disicple, their bond has a similar charm that I really enjoyed. Could anyone recommend other manga with relationships like these?
Guys what is the name manga for the last page chapter 45 , where the translator write 'fuck off' comment?
I can really feel his rage when he gets the order to return to the fight. Like, damn—his lover is on the brink of death, her useless family keeps blaming her without even do proper investigation, and now, in the middle of all this, he’s the one who has to go fight that whatever group! Is he the only one who does any work around here? Aren't there any other useful people?! （/TДT)/
