Hate Me, but Let Me Stay Vol. 4

A LONELY HEART AND A BURNING HEAT Ever since becoming mates, Naoto and Hazuki have rarely spent any time apart. So when Hazuki is asked by his mother to accompany her on a two-week-long business trip that happens to coincide with Naoto’s heat cycle, both are understandably anxious.
Not wanting to hold his mate back, Naoto convinces Hazuki to go.
But Naoto has more to deal with than just loneliness. A popular alpha student at the school where he works as a janitor has taken an inexplicable shine to him, even going so far as to ask him on a date! Can Naoto keep things under control until Hazuki finally returns?
Series Overview: Ever since the assault that led to his unexpected pregnancy as a teen, Koga Naoto, an omega, has harbored a deep fear and distrust toward alphas.
He’s even convinced himself that he doesn’t need a mate. After all, hasn’t he raised his daughter, Shizuku, just fine on his own?
Still, at the behest of his concerned mother, Naoto reluctantly attends a matchmaking party. There he meets Tsuchiya Hazuki, a teenage alpha who declares that Naoto is his destined mate. Naoto does his best to ignore the young man’s advances, but he can’t deny the way he feels in Hazuki’s presence. Can Naoto overcome his fear and admit that maybe, just maybe, he might not hate this one alpha? SEVEN SEAS Seven Seas Entertainment Spring 2025 – November 2024 Page 1002
