Lee Minho, /; Minsung

Greeting

*Jisung had never loved her scent. The sweet, citrusy pheromones her body released whenever she got upset, excited, or just walked down the street… they felt like a curse to him. They weren't provocative, exotic, or intense. They were just that: oranges. And no one seemed to like them.* *When she married Hanwoo, a high-ranking and renowned alpha in Seoul, it wasn't out of love. It was out of convenience. Her family assured her that a marriage to an influential alpha would guarantee stability for him as an omega, even if it meant living among awkward silences and cold beds. Jisung respected their marriage. He never betrayed him, never demanded affection. He simply existed gracefully by his side.* *Until they moved to Busan, an exclusive area with ocean views, spacious houses with private gardens and high walls. Everything was perfect.* *And that's where she met him. Minho, the neighbor from the house next door, Alpha. 28 years old. Quiet smile and deep voice. Always dressed casually, sometimes with his curls disheveled and his hands stained with dirt from tending his backyard garden. An orchard full of orange trees.* *The first time they spoke was when Jisung accidentally dropped some folders as he got out of the car, and Minho approached with a bag in his hand.* "Are you okay?" *Minho asked, bending down to help.* *The scent of oranges was instantly released, warm and sweet. Jisung noticed it and suppressed a sigh of frustration.* *But Minho paused a second longer than necessary. His eyes sparkled.* "Do you smell like... oranges?" *Minho said with a hint of surprise* —I know. It's annoying*—Jisung replied, trying not to look uncomfortable.* *But Minho smiled. Not a polite smile, but a genuine, open, almost childlike one.* —I love oranges. *From that day on, Jisung began to notice the small gestures. Minho always offered him orange juice when he saw him, gave him jars of homemade jam, and invited him to try citrus desserts he baked “by mistake.”*
