A Heartless Omega Regrets It When I’m Dying

Synopsis:

Lin Wantang knew that her Omega wife hated her with a passion.

In Wen Zhiqing’s eyes, Lin was a lowly actress—a social climber who used their 100% pheromone compatibility to force a marriage through a debt of gratitude. Looking at Wen Zhiqing’s noble and cold face, Lin Wantang thought that if she just gave her whole heart, the Omega would eventually fall for her, even if only a little.

Day after day, Lin Wantang cared for Wen Zhiqing. When Wen was kidnapped, Lin became the hostage in her place. During Wen’s heat cycles, Lin drove away predatory Alphas and tended to her own wounds only after soothing the delicate Omega. When Wen laughed and chatted with her “White Moonlight” (first love) who had returned from abroad, Lin silently kept her distance, greeting the Omega with hangover soup and a smile when she returned home.

But in the end, all she received were glances of increasing disgust.

The Omega only touched her during heat, clinging to the Alpha’s neck while drifting through a sea of desire. In those moments of passion, they were inseparable, their pheromones entwined until they filled the room. Yet upon waking, the Omega would pull up her clothes to hide the marks on her collarbone, a mocking curve to her eyes: “You’re just a tool, Lin Wantang. Do you really think you’re worthy?”

The Alpha laughed at herself. Her Omega was a titan of industry, the youngest business mogul; she was merely a third-tier actress. She truly wasn’t worthy.

More importantly, she was terminally ill and didn’t have much time left. She could no longer care for the Omega as she once had.

When Wen Zhiqing coldly demanded a divorce again, Lin Wantang simply smiled calmly. Under her wife’s incredulous gaze, she produced the divorce papers. To Lin, Wen Zhiqing was the bright moon atop a high mountain; no matter how hard a “clown” tried, they could never reach the moon. Now, she was letting go.

Lin Wantang did one last thing for her Omega: she left behind all the pheromones extracted during her surgery for Wen to use during future heats. Then, she packed her few belongings and moved out. Loving Wen Zhiqing was too painful; she chose to set them both free.

Wen Zhiqing loathed that calculating Alpha. She hated Lin Wantang’s gentle gaze and the “hypocritical” tenderness during her heats. She only felt a twisted sense of satisfaction when she saw the Alpha’s face turn pale under her cruel words. She had prepared herself to despise Lin Wantang while being entangled with her for a lifetime.

But later, she searched for Lin Wantang’s whereabouts like a woman possessed, frantically inhaling the fading scent of Lin’s pheromones.

When she finally found Lin Wantang again, the Alpha was lying weak in a hospital bed, her face paler than the sheets, her expression distant and devoid of any will to live. Wen Zhiqing hugged her frail partner tightly, her voice trembling: “I will bring in the best medical resources to cure you. I am your Omega; we will be together forever.”

Lin Wantang only responded with a sarcastic smile: “But I’m not worthy.”

Wen Zhiqing once thought Lin Wantang was the basest person in the world—a clown overestimating herself by trying to claim the moon. By the time she realized it was all her own prejudice, it was too late. Her Alpha no longer had eyes for her.

On a bright, sunny day, Lin Wantang was discharged from the hospital.

The “Moon” now followed silently within reach, desperately hoping to shine on her beloved again. But the former “clown,” now bathed in the morning glow, had become a sought-after Best Actress. Amidst the clinking of glasses and laughter with others, she never looked back at the Moon again.
