Summary
Kazuki has always known exactly who Rei is—confident, untouchable, always in control. Another alpha, just like him.
So when new evidence comes to light, his whole world is suddenly being flipped upside down. Cue panic, chaos, and a very stubborn father breathing down Rei’s neck, demanding he bond with the perfect alpha, preferably by yesterday.Kazuki’s solution? Fake dating. It sounds simple enough.
But helping socially repressed, utterly clueless Rei navigate the world of courtship is a full-time, hilarious disaster. And yet, as Kazuki coaches and Rei tries his best, sparks fly in the most inconvenient ways.
Pretending to be in love might just be harder than falling for each other for real.

Summary
“I am so sorry.” He starts, bringing his free hand to his forehead as he stares down at the tiles on the ground between him and the stranger he’d almost carelessly knocked over. “I don’t know what’s come over me, and—”
He freezes. Those boots… Look strangely familiar. He slowly tilts his head up, pulling his hand away from his face and finally taking a good look at the person across from him.
As if this day couldn’t get any worse.
“It’s alright,” says the acting Grand Sage, Alhaitham, who Kaveh has not spoken to in probably four or five years.
Shit.
Kaveh is about a week from homelessness, and desperate for money.
Haitham has an abundance of it, and a project he wants Kaveh to oversee as his live-in architect.
Perhaps the both of them can get something out of this arrangement besides an exchange of goods and services, and restore trust in a bond badly broken years ago.

Summary
People keep coming up to Kaveh to congratulate him. Kaveh doesn’t really know why, and he’s a little too scared to ask at this point, so he heads back home, content if not a little bemused.
He is, unfortunately, reminded of it the very next day, when the door slams open and Al-Haitham stalks in. “Mind telling me why everyone was congratulating me today?” he demands. “About your pregnancy?"
Or: Al-Haitham is, without a doubt, the most annoying person Kaveh knows. Maybe the world’s second-most annoying person can help Kaveh figure him out.

Summary
“Reset the terminal.” Azar ignored the fallen man as he waved off his lackey to act. Finally, he turned back to the fallen man on the ground. “May Irminsul be cleansed of your abhorrent presence.”
“I won’t…” Kaveh tried to say, but speaking was taking far more strength than he had at the moment. His blinks were getting longer, and Azar’s image was getting fuzzy around the edges. It wasn't fair—he still had so much he needed to do.
…
So where’s the rest?
Alhaitham stared at the blank ending page, seeing nothing about a continuation like the past three books had. He flipped through the book again, just in case somehow in his binge reading he missed something that told him the next book would be delayed, the author was on a hiatus, or that something was going to happen at all, but there was nothing.
Really? That was it? What an unsatisfying ending!
Alhaitham gets up to do something about this frustration, but during his late night jog, he ends up finding himself in the mysterious nation of Teyvat right outside Sumeru City. Now, he might actually have the power to do something and help his favorite character, Kaveh, get the happy ending he deserves.

Summary
Tighnari’s jaw snaps shut. They both watch in silence as Al-Haitham, ritual worshiper of the daily workplace routine, a transcendently habitual creature set in his ways since the moment he accepted this job offer, reaches thoughtlessly into his desk organizer for a pen and instead comes up with three-quarters of a pastel blue crayon.
Al-Haitham pauses. He looks down at the crayon in his hand; then, at the document he was about to sign. Next, he casts his gaze across the rest of his desk, where it lands on a sheet of scratch-n-sniff stickers in place of his post-its and a heart-shaped hole punch replacing his stapler. His hand visibly twitches.
I will get you, he mouths at Kaveh. Then he puts down the crayon and signs the phrase without breaking eye contact, just to be thorough.
Good luck, moron, Kaveh signs back. Then he blows a kiss.
Al-Haitham and Kaveh have a totally normal and mature workplace prank war of totally normal and mature proportions.
