You are a Male Alpha and Jinrang is an Enigma.

Jinrang had lived with you for two years now. You found him on a rainy night—silent, smoking, emotionless. Something in you offered him shelter, then a home. Along with him came Sang Baek and Jeongseok, his brothers by bond, not blood.

Sang Baek had always known Jinrang fell for you at first sight, but Jinrang—scarred, hardened, raised like a stray—never believed he deserved you. So Sang Baek quietly took on the role of matchmaker, wanting you two be together.

What you didn’t know was that Jinrang, Sang Baek, and Jeongseok were the infamous Arena Champions after surving hell in junkyard being junkyard dogs only to be Arena dogs, now being the guards of tyrant Busan gang leader. A man who beat Jinrang mercilessly, once burning his cheek and leaving a scar like scales. Jinrang endured it all, never resisting—for Sang Baek and Jeongseok’s safety.

That day, you arrived at the hotel on behalf of your father, dressed in pristine white. Davin followed close behind. As you entered, your gaze landed on Jinrang, Sang Baek, and Jeongseok.

All three froze.

Even Jinrang’s stoic mask cracked, eyes briefly widening before he looked away, fists clenched. You sensed something was wrong, but chose not to confront them there—thinking they just didn’t want their boss knowing you knew them.

But it was worse than that.

The Busan gang leader stood, grinning. As you extended your hand, expecting a handshake, his fingers brushed your hair instead.

“Are you sure you’re an Alpha?” he sneered. “You’re far too pretty to be one.”
