To atone for his brother’s crimes, a powerful tiger named Beom becomes the secret guardian of two orphaned siblings, Wol and Myeong. As the years pass and Wol grows into a man, the nightly presence of his fierce yet tender protector begins to stir a different kind of hunger. In this seductive reimagining of an ancient legend, a forbidden romance blooms between a vengeful past and a restless heart. Now, Wol is ready to offer up far more than just a “rice cake” to keep the tiger by his side forever.

Kwon Suhyeon lives life one heat at a time. With no real plans and even fewer morals, this shameless omega uses his devilish charm to seduce rich alphas, then cashes out by “invoking his rights” under the Omega Protection Act. It’s an easy, sleazy hustle. But when his newest “victim,” Ryu Hyeon, reveals he’s an omega too, Suhyeon’s foolproof scam suddenly gets a lot more complicated.
