Neon’s POV_____
Ahh... finally.
I drag the mop across the floor one last ti, watching the wooden tiles shine under the soft lights of the tiny flower shop. My shoulders ache, my fingers sting a little from the cold water, but a small satisfaction warms . It’s done.
I straighten, stretching my back until it cracks. I’m Neon—your classic broke high-school student, part-ti florist, part-ti cleaner, full-ti survivor of life. I untie my apron, fold it carefully, sling my old bag over my shoulder, and head toward the door.
"Go ho safely, dear," the shop owner calls. A sweet old lady with more kindness than the entire world combined. "And eat your dinner properly!"
I smile and wave. "Okay, okay, Granny. Don’t worry!"
She treats like family. The kind of family I lost years ago.
Stepping into the dim street, the air greets with the familiar chill. I walk alone—like always. My parents divorced when I was fourteen. Mom fell in love with soone rich and shiny, and left and Dad like we were disposable props in her old life. Dad remarried and moved to another city with his new family. At first, he sent money. Then the transfers beca smaller... then irregular... then nothing.
Eventually, I realized they didn’t forget .
They just never really thought about at all.
So I learned to survive by myself. Part-ti jobs, tiny side hustles—whatever kept fed and breathing. I never had the luxury to enjoy things other kids did. No movies, no fancy food, no dates in pretty parks. But there was one thing I couldn’t give up.
Books.
Especially Ogaverse novels—those worlds where emotions had scents, where pheromones could shake destinies, where love felt bigger than life. I couldn’t afford them, but luck gave Alina, my rich friend who buys every trending novel and lends the ones she thinks I’ll like.
And she was right.
For the past four days, I’ve been devouring Angel in Hell, the number one Ogaverse novel trending everywhere. Sleeping? Who is she? I stayed up night after night reading because the story is so good.
But... there’s one thing that pisses off every ti.
The villain.
Zyren Kael.
A D-class alpha with peach blossom pheromones.
A walking disaster with too much pride, too much cruelty, and zero brain cells.
He keeps torturing the main character, Angel—the rare oga everyone loves. If he really loved Angel, why destroy him? Why hurt him? Why force everything like the world exists for him? If Angel doesn’t like him, then go find soone else! He’s rich, powerful, handso—he has options. But no. He chooses violence, chaos, and stupidity every single ti.
"I hate that guy," I mutter as I reach my tiny apartnt.
I unlock the door, step inside, and breathe in the familiar scent of old furniture and cheap laundry detergent. I wash my face, change into comfy clothes, and make instant noodles—because that’s all I can afford. I sit on my tiny bed and grab my beloved novel from the side table.
Excitent buzzes through .
Tonight, I’m finishing it.
I flip open the book and dive back into Angel’s world. I read without stopping. Without blinking. Without breathing, probably. Hours disappear.
Suddenly—it’s 3 a.m.
I close the book slowly, a big satisfied smile blooming on my lips.
Angel finally got his happy ending.
My pretty oga lives in peace with the one who truly loves him.
But then my smile freezes.
Zyren Kael.
The annoying villain.
He dies.
He suicides and the ending is cruel... but honestly?
I exhale, lying back on the bed.
"He deserves it," I whisper.
He did so many horrible things. Too many. Especially to Angel. So, yes, a part of is satisfied. But another part... keeps thinking about him.
Why did he end up like that?
Why was he so cruel?
Why couldn’t he love properly?
I stare up at my apartnt’s cracked ceiling, the book resting on my chest like a warm, heavy heartbeat.
Ugh. It’s annoying how much space he takes in my mind even after dying.
My eyelids grow heavy, my thoughts drifting into the dark as a quiet whisper slips from my lips without permission—
"If I were the villain... I wouldn’t make such stupid mistakes."
To be continued.....
