   Summary

   Seonghwa had spent his entire life being taught that an omega’s value lied in how well he can belong to someone else.

   Then Hongjoong, the foul-mouthed son of the man who built the institution that owns him, requests Seonghwa for one week, and Seonghwa expects another wealthy alpha with particular tastes.

   Instead, Hongjoong intends to dismantle his father’s legacy by taking its greatest success and teaching him how to be a person instead of a possession.

   Unfortunately, neither of them has any idea what the fuck they’re doing.
