Summary
Ishino, a rough-edged pharmacist in a slum called Bad Apple, wants nothing more than a quiet, independent life. But Ishino has a secret—he’s suffering from unexplained heat cycles, a condition often associated with the Omegaverse, though he refuses to believe he’s an omega.
When a sudden heat strikes him in public, Ishino becomes the center of attention for powerful, morally bankrupt mafia bosses, including the dangerous and seductive Nemeth. These men aren’t just drawn to him for pleasure—they see his biology as a weapon and an opportunity. Ishino is soon pulled into a violent power struggle between rival criminal factions, each wanting to claim him, control him, or use him for their own gain.
As Ishino fights to retain his freedom, he’s forced to confront: The truth about his body and identity, The limits of his moral code in an increasingly lawless world, And the painful question of whether desire and survival can ever coexist without cost.
